"Sir Ou, is it necessary for you and I to be so polite to each other? Besides, I didn't help much, and Mu Hanyan saw through it a long time ago." Long Wucuo laughed.
"This bitch is quite scheming and cunning." Ou Mingzhi said with some regret.
"Lord Ou, there's no need to be anxious. Now that she's in my Tianyang City, it's only a matter of time before I deal with her. I've already issued an order that no inn can keep her. Let her go outside the city and get some cold wind for a few days. It will also be a way for you to vent your anger." Long Wucuo said.
"Thank you, Lord Ou, but even just these words are not enough to ease the anger in my heart. Since she dared to come to Tianyang City, I never thought of letting her go back alive." Ou Mingzhi said with a cold look.
"I'm afraid this is not appropriate." Long Wucuo said after a moment of silence.
Humiliating Mu Hanyan is not a big deal. If Mu Hanyan had taken action just now, it would not be a big deal to injure her half to death. After all, this is the Tianyang Temple. Even if Mu Hanyan is the chief priest of the Huayu Temple, she will be in trouble if she dares to take action. Anyway, he is in the right, and no one will speak for the Huayu Temple.
But when it comes to killing someone, especially the chief priest of another temple, it is a violation of the law, and he cannot bear the responsibility.
"Don't worry, Lord Long. I will naturally not let anyone catch me. I have an idea..." Ou Mingzhi smiled slightly and lowered his voice.
"It is indeed not easy to leave any handles by doing this, but if someone is determined to investigate, there will still be some loopholes." After a long time, Long Wucuo said in a deep voice, and it seemed that he was unable to make the final decision.
"Lord Long is worrying too much. Even the Lord God has turned a blind eye to the Huayu Temple. Who would investigate? Besides, I have a backup plan and will definitely not implicate you." Ou Mingzhi said.
"If that's the case..." Long Wucuo was still hesitant.
"Lord Long, I heard that the position of the young master of the Long family has not been finalized yet. After it is done, I will persuade my father to convince Chief Priest Long to make you the young master. In the future, I will also do my best to help you ascend to the position of Chief Priest of Tianyang." Ou Mingzhi offered his last chip.
"Brother Ou, we are brothers. Your business is my business. If Mu Hanyan doesn't give you face, it means she doesn't take me, Long Wucuo, seriously. Even if you don't say it, I will never let her leave Tianyang City alive. This matter is settled." Long Wucuo said passionately.
Lingyu Temple and Tianyang Temple had just reached an agreement. The words of the chief priest of Lingyu Temple carried great weight in his father's ears. As long as he was willing to help speak up, it would not be difficult to establish Long Wucuo as the young master. Ou Mingzhi had already been established as the young master of the Ou family. It was said that he had decided to go to the Temple of Life to practice, and it was also certain that he would inherit the position of the chief priest of Lingyu Temple in the future. As long as he helped, Long Wucuo's hope of becoming the chief priest of Tianyang would be much greater. Of course, he would not hesitate any longer.
Despicable villain, if I hadn't offered such a good condition, it would be strange if he agreed, brother! Ou Mingzhi cursed in his heart, but still smiled and shook hands with Long Wucuo to swear an oath.
…
"I heard that they were from the Huayu Temple. I don't know how they offended the Long family and couldn't even enter the Tianyang Temple."
"What a shame! After all, it's one of the oldest temples on the continent. How could it have fallen into such decline?"
"Having offended the Long family, they actually came to participate in the ceremony of offering sacrifices to the gods. I heard that all the chief priests will take action this time. The old priests of the Flower Rain Temple are long gone. I heard that the only ones left are young priests with no future. Aren't they looking for death?"
"I guess there's really no other way. If this continues, no one will remember the Flower Rain Temple anymore. They're just trying to get attention."
"It's not worth losing your life just to be in the spotlight."
Even when sitting inside the car, you can still hear people pointing and talking outside from time to time.
Sikong Qinglan and Shen Yuhe both had ashen faces. Mu Tu, who was driving, couldn't help but want to beat someone up several times, but fortunately he was suppressed by Mu Hanyan.
Fortunately, the carriage was far away from the Tianyang Temple, and the surroundings gradually quieted down. After all, Tianyang City is so big, it takes time for rumors to spread.
"By the way, sir, the last time we got rid of Xiang Qiuzhan's gang of bandits, why didn't we see any reaction from the Temple of Life? There wasn't even any reward?" Sikong Qinglan calmed down a little and said with some surprise.
Xiang Qiuzhan, the bandit leader who even gave the five major temples a headache, was killed by Mu Hanyan. They originally thought that the Temple of Life would make some statement, and even the Lord God would personally reward them. If so, they believed that they would not have suffered such humiliation today. However, until now, there has been no movement.
"Could it be that Long Wudang felt ashamed and didn't dare to report this?" Shen Yuhe speculated.
"I think it probably needs confirmation. You have all seen Xiang Qiuzhan's strength. If I say that I killed him, others may not believe it. Besides, his body was burned to ashes, and the giant dragon sword was also broken. Where is the evidence?" Mu Hanyan had actually thought about this problem a long time ago and said calmly.
Long Wudang might be too embarrassed to report it, but Zhuge Qiu, as a punishment priest, dared not conceal it. However, without evidence, no one would believe it if he reported it. How could he easily reward someone for such a serious matter before it was finally confirmed?
In fact, Mu Hanyan really didn't want this award. She hoped that Zhuge Qiu would not report it. She had too many secrets and didn't want to attract too much attention before she had enough strength to protect herself.
"That's true." Sikong Qinglan and Shen Yuhe nodded at the same time.
There are five floors inside and outside Tianyang City, and the Gu family's house is on the third floor. It is not too far inside, but not too far outside either. This also confirms what Shen Yuhe said. The Gu family is indeed somewhat famous among the priest families in Tianyang City.
When Mu Hanyan and others jumped off the carriage, it was already dark. Two women were standing at the door of the house, looking out from time to time. They were both decent-looking and well-dressed. There were several maids and guards standing behind them, and it was obvious that they were of some status.
A carriage stopped outside the door, and several priests got off one after another. Two women immediately came forward to greet them. The older one looked normal, while the other one had a big smile on her face.
"I don't know which temple you are from. I hope you can forgive me for not welcoming you from afar." The woman who spoke was about thirty years old, and there was a bit of flattery in her smile.
"Second Aunt, it's me, Yuhe." Shen Yuhe said while bowing. She hadn't been back for so many years, and although other people's appearance hadn't changed much, she had grown from a little girl into a big girl, and no one else could recognize her.
"Yuhe, it's really you." The older woman grabbed Shen Yuhe's hand and said in surprise. Her eyes swept across Shen Yuhe's face, full of intimacy.
"Yuhe greets Auntie." Shen Yuhe said with a greeting. It can be seen that she and this woman are also very close.
"It's really you. You've grown into a big girl in the blink of an eye. Why didn't you come back to visit me for all these years? You don't know how worried I am about you. I heard that the Huayu Temple is not having a good time. I hope you haven't suffered much..." The aunt grabbed Shen Yuhe's hand and asked in a nagging manner like all relatives who had been away for a long time.
"Chen Yuhe, why are you back?" But before Chen Yuhe could answer, the younger woman asked coldly, and the smile on her face had long disappeared.
