"Oh, I only found out later. It turns out the clan that saved me was a branch of the Zhao family of the Temple of Life. Because they lost the battle for the position of patriarch, this branch was expelled from the Temple of Life. However, according to the original agreement, every thousand years, their descendants can return to the Temple of Life to participate in the priest examination.
"Because they examined my injuries when they rescued me, and said my spiritual power was exceptionally strong, they taught me some of the most basic priestly cultivation methods and asked me to pretend to be a member of a wealthy family and take the test. If I succeeded, I could secure a place for them to live," Zhao Sining explained.
Mu Hanyan suddenly realized that they were blood relatives after all. Even if they were expelled from the Temple of Life after losing the battle for the position of Patriarch, the Zhao clan would not kill all of their own family members and still gave them a chance. Zhao Sining's chance to become a priest was not much different from her original reason.
"Then you passed the assessment, became a priest, and were recruited back to the clan?" Mu Hanyan could guess a little about what happened next without Zhao Sining saying much.
"Well, it's almost like that, but it's not that simple." Zhao Si Ning nodded and continued, "During the assessment, several members of the Zhao clan insulted me in every way. I was so angry that I suddenly used my spiritual power to merge my energy and spiritual power into one, and killed them on the spot.
This incident alarmed Zhao Xinghong and several elders of the Zhao family. They immediately used some ancestral magic of phantom blood to verify my bloodline. I originally thought that my identity was exposed and I would die, but I didn't know that they and I were actually from the same clan.
Zhao Xinghong and the elders were reluctant to kill me because they saw that I was talented. However, I had killed several people from the same clan, and they couldn't pretend to be ignorant, so they simply sent me to the Temple of Death.
Because I am from the Temple of Life, I can only be regarded as traveling and practicing in the Temple of Death, so the priests of the Temple of Death are still quite hostile to me and often make things difficult for me. In a fit of rage, I challenged them one by one and severely injured them one by one.
I don't know how I suddenly became so gifted, but eventually the head priest of the Temple of Death took a liking to me and accepted me as his personal disciple. When some senior priests wanted to avenge the lives of my clan's disciples, I simply took care of them as well.
Zhao Sining said it lightly, but Mu Hanyan was stunned.
No wonder Zhao Xinghu and Zhao Zhiyuan, uncle and nephew, were so excited when they saw Zhao Sining. It turned out that this guy had such a fortuitous experience. He caused trouble everywhere when he arrived in the Continent of Gods, but nothing happened to him. In the end, he was accepted as a personal disciple by the chief priest of the Temple of Death.
Mu Hanyan now understood why ordinary civilians were unwilling to provoke the mentally ill, because once a mental illness breaks out, the potential is simply endless. The most important thing is that even if a mentally ill person kills someone, it is all in vain, and there is no psychological burden at all.
"Okay, that's about it. It's time for me to go." After saying this, Zhao Sining said goodbye to Mu Hanyan.
"Where are you going?" Mu Hanyan asked subconsciously.
"I heard that there is a rare treasure hidden in this Black Wood Prison. As long as the soul is immortal, one can reshape the true body. I must find it and save the immortal." Zhao Sining said.
"You know that too?" Mu Hanyan looked at Zhao Sining in surprise.
When Zhao Zhiyuan told her about this before, she had clearly used a soundproof barrier because she didn't want outsiders to know. How did Zhao Sining know about it as well?
Could it be that this was not a secret at all, and he had been fooled by Zhao Xinghu and Zhao Zhiyuan, uncle and nephew?
"Well, I heard it from the head of the branch family who saved me, but not many people know about it." Zhao Sining said.
Mu Hanyan finally felt relieved. Fortunately, she did not suffer a setback. If she had been fooled by idiots like Zhao Xinghu and Zhao Zhiyuan, it would have been extremely embarrassing.
As for the branch family head that Zhao Sining mentioned, since the ancestor of his lineage was qualified to compete for the position of family head, he must have a good status and strength, so it is not surprising that he knows this secret.
"Why don't we go together?" Mu Hanyan said to Zhao Sining.
Although in Zhao Sining's view, Mu Hanyan hated him for killing his wife (well, in fact, Zhao Lingxian was just using him and had no intention of marrying him, but that's what he thought anyway), Mu Shouyan never regarded him as an enemy, but more of a pity. Most of the time, she habitually regarded him as a companion, or even a friend.
"No, I have a grudge against you for murdering my wife. I traveled with you before because I had no choice. How can I follow you now? If Lingxian is still alive, he will definitely be angry with me." Zhao Sining said righteously.
He’s sick again so soon... Mu Hanyan saw that Zhao Sining’s eyes suddenly became a little confused, and quickly took out a few pills and handed them over.
"What is this?" Zhao Sining had not completely lost his mind and did not take action immediately. Instead, he looked at Mu Hanyan in confusion.
"Nine Transformations and Pulse Pills are used for healing and will be good for your injuries. Even if you want revenge, you need the strength to do so, right? Be good and eat them quickly." Mu Hanyan said earnestly.
Of course, what she took out was not a healing pill, but a pill to calm the mind and soothe the spirit.
"Okay, thank you very much. Although I will kill you sooner or later to avenge Lingxian, I will still pay you back what I owe you." Zhao Sining thought about it and took the pill.
Soon, his vision returned to clarity. The cultivation methods of the Divine Continent were based on divine consciousness, so the healing elixirs also focused on this, which was more helpful to Zhao Sining's condition.
Seeing that Mu Hanyan and Zhao Sining had almost finished their conversation and the latter was about to say goodbye and leave, Gao Weihu stopped practicing and walked over with Su Baoer.
The so-called breakthrough was just a cover. Gao Weihu looked normal, but Su Baoer had a bitter face and her eyes were full of regret when she saw that Brother Weihu did not get promoted as smoothly as she had hoped.
"Woo..." At this moment, a wolf howl suddenly sounded. In the blink of an eye, a demon-eyed wind wolf came running towards them.
"Why are you here again?" Mu Hanyan subconsciously grasped the sword.
Judging from the aura of this Demon Eye Wind Wolf, its strength is probably similar to the one that died in her hands before, and is comparable to a seventh-level Divine Heart Priest. Mu Hanyan did not dare to be too careless.
Zhao Sining, Gao Weihu, Su Baoer and others also drew their swords and gripped their giant hammers at the same time.
As the first-class Demon Eye Wind Wolf approached, several people whistled and simultaneously used their strongest magic to attack the Demon Eye Wind Wolf.
"Bang!" With a dull sound, Gao Weihu's huge hammer hit the head of the Demon Eye Wind Wolf heavily, smashing it into a bloody mess.
