"Because they suspected that Lord Zhuge was in cahoots with the High Priest and had committed fraud in the killing of Xiang Qiu, several punishment priests detained Lord Zhuge on the spot. I'm afraid he won't be able to escape until the High Priest proves his strength." Zhao Yide said.
"Good tricks, the Right Priest has good tricks." Mu Hanyan said gritting her teeth.
In order to force himself to submit, Zhao Xinghong tried his best. Not only did he find a plausible reason, he even implicated Zhuge Qiu.
"Master Mu, you are too kind. My right priest did this for your reputation. Please understand." Zhao Yide said with a bow.
"Go back and tell him that I will go to the hunting trial. Don't make things difficult for Lord Zhuge." Mu Hanyan said.

Mu Hanyan was just a high priest, her strength limited. How could she possibly turn things around? Zhao Yide, realizing this, smiled faintly, bowed to Mu Hanyan, and then left the Flower Rain Temple.
Mu Hanyan sneered inwardly. There's still a long way to go. The other party dared to do this to her, simply because they didn't know that the grass on the graves of those who had previously plotted against her was already two people tall. However, they didn't know now, but they would know later.
