"Wait, I don't like these guys very much and don't want to see them again. You have no objection, right?" Mu Hanyan glanced at Zhao Xinghu and others and asked Zhao Sining.
Upon hearing this, Zhao Xinghu and others almost fell to the ground and looked at Zhao Sining expectantly.
It was clear that these two were both enemies and friends, and their relationship was extremely complicated, not something that outsiders could fully grasp. However, they could see one thing: Mu Hanyan did not regard Zhao Sining as an enemy, and they probably still had some friendship. Whether they could survive depended entirely on Zhao Sining.
"I'm not familiar with them." Zhao Sining said coldly without even looking at them.
"That's good." Mu Hanyan nodded, with a murderous look in her eyes.
After what happened today, she completely lost her patience with Zhao Xinghu and the others and was not going to let them leave the Black Wood Prison alive.
Although I have never regarded these jumping clowns as enemies, and they have no qualifications, but no matter who you are, seeing a group of flies flying around in front of you all day long, buzzing from time to time and annoying you, and always thinking about biting you to death, you will never be in a good mood.
After hearing the conversation between the two, Zhao Xinghu and the others lost all strength in their already weak and trembling legs, and collapsed to the ground with a thump.
Faced with Mu Hanyan's terrifying strength, they didn't even have the courage to escape.
"Mu... Priest Mu, we were just joking. I, Zhao Xinghu, am not a beast. How could I repay you with evil? I swear, from now on, I will turn over a new leaf and never harbor any evil intentions towards you again." Zhao Xinghu tried to force a smile, but it ended up looking uglier than tears. He added, "No, I will go into seclusion and practice cultivation when I return. I will never appear before you again."
Mu Hanyan sneered, her hand on the hilt of her sword as she walked straight towards them. They weren't beasts, they were worse than beasts. Initially, Mu Hanyan didn't believe Zhao Xinghu's words, but she figured since she'd saved his life, he should at least stay quiet for a while. But she hadn't expected that in less than two hours, the moment Zhao Si Ning arrived, this guy would immediately commit murder. Mu Hanyan wouldn't believe a single word he said.
"Cousin, help, help, I am also a member of the Zhao family, we are brothers." Seeing that Mu Hanyan was not moved at all, Zhao Zhiyuan was scared and almost cried, and begged Zhao Sining bitterly.
Unfortunately, Zhao Sining is not stupid. He was injured and fell to the ground just now, and his life or death was unknown. These guys pretended not to see it and did not take his life or death seriously at all. How could he regard them as his own family members?
"Master Priest Mu, it's none of our fault. It's all this guy's fault. He made us do it." Seeing Zhao Sining indifferent, Zhao Zhiyuan was completely disheartened. Tears finally rolled out, and he pointed at Ou Mingzhi and said.
"Zhao Zhiyuan, stop slandering me. Who are you? Who am I? Can I control you?" Ou Mingzhi's face turned pale, but he did not admit it. Instead, he pointed at Zhao Zhiyuan and others and said angrily.
Seeing them fighting each other, Mu Hanyan sneered but did not stop.
She had heard from Gao Weihu that Zhao Zhiyuan was a domineering man who seemed arrogant but was actually a coward. However, as the son of the right priest of the Temple of Life, he had some pride that was different from that of ordinary family children, and he usually did not speak without thinking.
Given his cowardly nature, he had barely escaped death and saved his life, so he might not have dared to kill himself immediately. He must have been instigated by Ou Mingzhi.
But Ou Mingzhi was right. Given Zhao Zhiyuan and Zhao Xinghu's status, how could he have directed them? If he hadn't had that intention, how could Ou Mingzhi have instigated them?
In short, it was just dog bite dog. How could Mu Hanyan let them go just because of a few words of mercy?
"Chief Priest Mu, this Black Wood Prison actually hides a shocking secret. As long as you spare us, I will tell you this secret." Seeing Mu Hanyan getting closer and closer, with murderous intent growing stronger and stronger, Zhao Zhiyuan knew that it would be useless no matter how much he begged for mercy. He suddenly gritted his teeth and said to Mu Hanyan.
"Yes, yes, this Black Wood Prison hides a shocking secret. As long as you spare us, we will tell you this secret." Zhao Xinghu thought of something and said immediately.
"Oh?" Mu Hanyan's heart moved slightly and she stopped.
If it were someone else, they might not take the words of Zhao Xinghu and his nephew seriously, thinking that it was just a fabricated excuse they made up to save their lives.
However, Mu Hanyan had some understanding of their personalities. She knew that they were not in the habit of talking nonsense, and they probably didn't have such quick wit, so it was very likely that they did not lie.
According to Taowu, the Black Wood Prison may very well contain rare treasures from ancient times that can cure Liuguang's bloodline. Perhaps the Ancient Tree of Life wants to regain its vitality, and its whereabouts may also be in this Black Wood Prison.
But the Blackwood Prison was so vast, where could she find such rare treasures? She couldn't just stay there forever. Besides, Gao Weihu had told her before coming here that each hunting trial in the Blackwood Prison lasted a month. After a month, the power of the laws would become incomparably stronger, and those below the level of Soul Priest would die if they stayed there.
Although her physical condition as a practitioner of swordsmanship and divine arts might not necessarily put her life in danger if she stayed there, this was just her guess and she was not sure. It would be best if she could have a clear goal.
Zhao Xinghong holds a high position, and the Zhao family is one of the oldest and most powerful families in the Temple of Life. Perhaps, this uncle and nephew really know some secrets of the Black Wood Prison.
Seeing that Mu Hanyan's expression had eased a little, Zhao Xinghu and his nephew finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Zhao Zhiyuan, come here." Mu Hanyan said to Zhao Zhiyuan.
"Master Priest, do you agree?" Zhao Zhiyuan suddenly became energetic again, bowed his head, and ran over quickly.
"Tell me, as long as what you say is true, I will let you go." Mu Hanyan said.
Whether Zhao Zhiyuan and others were dead or alive was of no importance to her. She just felt annoyed by them. As long as what he said was really useful, it would be no big deal to let them go.
As she spoke, Mu Hanyan focused her mind and cast a soundproof barrier. Since Zhao Xinghu said he knew the secret, she could use their words to confirm it. She couldn't give them any chance to collude.
"According to the last words left by our Zhao family's ancestors, there is a heaven-defying treasure hidden in this Black Wood Prison. As long as the soul is immortal, one can use this treasure to rebuild the body and be resurrected. If one is injured, no matter how serious the injury is, even if the meridians and qi sea are destroyed, as long as there is still a breath, one can recover as before with the help of this treasure, and the cultivation level will not be affected in the slightest." Zhao Zhiyuan said.
