"You are right. That's the truth. He is my subordinate, Zuo Qiuhan. He deserves to be killed." Zuo Qiuhan said without hesitation.
"You..." This was the first time in Young Master Long's life that he tried to reason with someone. Unfortunately, he met a completely unreasonable person and was choked speechless.
Mu Hanyan also realized that when Su Baoer said that Zuo Qiuhan only cared about his own opinions, she was actually flattering him. This guy was blindly protecting his own people and taking sides. He thought what he said was right, but what kind of reason was this?
"Brother Zuo..." Su Baoer also knew that her words were actually flattering Zuo Qiuhan, and she felt a little embarrassed, so she stepped forward to persuade him again.
However, Zuo Qiuhan ignored her completely, pushed her away, and walked towards Mu Hanyan and Long Wudang with a murderous look on his face.
"Get out of the way, or don't blame my sword for being blind." Zuo Qiuhan said coldly to Mu Hanyan.
Cold sweat broke out on Long Wudang's face, and he subconsciously hid behind Mu Hanyan. Although it would be embarrassing for a man of seven feet to rely on a woman's protection to survive, but Young Master Long had been embarrassed in front of Mu Hanyan more than once, and he was used to it.
Mu Hanyan moved her wrist and grasped the hilt of the sword again.
"Tell me, what do you have to do to let him go?" Mu Hanyan knew that there was no point in talking to such a person, so she asked directly.
"Are you really determined to protect him?" Seeing that Mu Hanyan knew his identity and was still trying to protect Long Wudang, Zuo Qiuhan was a little surprised and looked at her with interest.
Mu Hanyan didn't say anything, but the determination in her eyes said it all.
"Well, it's not impossible for you to protect him if you want. As long as you can defeat me, the grudge between him and my Frozen Temple will be written off." Zuo Qiuhan said.
"A gentleman's word is his bond." Mu Hanyan said.
"It's impossible to catch up with him once you have done it." Zuo Qiuhan said without hesitation.
"No! Brother Zuo, listen to me, let's forget about this." Hearing what the two said, Su Baoer's face changed and she advised anxiously.
Zuo Qiuhan didn't know Mu Hanyan's strength, but didn't she know either? Although Zuo Qiuhan was well-known and extremely talented, having reached the level of a sixth-order Divine Heart Priest at a young age, fighting Mu Hanyan would be courting death, wouldn't it?
Although she was not familiar with Zuo Qiuhan, the Zuo and Su families were old friends. She couldn't just watch Zuo Qiuhan get into trouble.
"Don't worry, Baoer. Since she is your friend, I will give you some face and show mercy." Zuo Qiuhan obviously misunderstood Su Baoer's meaning. His expression eased a little and he waved his hand in a very heroic manner.
Show mercy, I just want to save you. Seeing Zuo Qiuhan's confident face, Su Baoer wanted to curse.
"Brother Zuo, just listen to my advice and let it go." Su Baoer could only continue to persuade him earnestly.
"Three moves. How about this, as long as she can take my three moves, this matter will be over." Zuo Qiuhan thought for a while, raised three fingers and said.
"Zuo Qiuhan, I want to save you, don't you understand?" Su Baoer was so angry that she was about to vomit blood. She didn't care about Zuo Qiuhan's face anymore and shouted loudly.
"Save me?" Zuo Qiuhan was startled. Then, as if he had heard the funniest joke in the world, he burst into laughter and said, "Bao'er, don't you think she's stronger than me?"
It's no wonder that he laughed like that. Although the Huayu Temple has enjoyed an extraordinary status since ancient times and has produced many famous and powerful people, its scale and resources are limited after all. The strength of the chief priests who remain will not be too strong.
He had personally experienced Mu Hanyan's fire spear just now. Although it was much stronger than that of ordinary priests, in his opinion, it was just so-so.
Unfortunately, he didn't know that Mu Hanyan had no habit of hurting people casually, and the sword she just struck was only to save people, not to hurt them, so she didn't even use 30% of her strength.
"One sword. As long as you can take my sword, Long Wudang will be at your disposal." Mu Hanyan said lightly without waiting for Su Baoer to answer.
What! Zuo Qiuhan was stunned again, and so were the other priests of the Frozen Temple. Could it be that Mu Hanyan's strength was not as simple as it seemed, and was much stronger than they had imagined?
Thinking of this, Zuo Qiuhan gradually put away his previous contempt and his expression became serious.
"Young master, don't be fooled by her. In my opinion, she probably knows that she is not as strong as you, but she can't save face and doesn't want to ignore her friend's life or death, so she deliberately finds a way to save face." Soon, a clever-looking priest thought of something and said self-righteously.
"That's right, if she really had the strength, how could she still stay in the Flower Rain Temple as the chief priest? She would have gone to the Life Temple to take up the position. We all know the current situation of the Flower Rain Temple. If she really wanted to fight with the young master for three moves, I'm afraid she wouldn't even be able to get up. If she fights with one move, she can save her face and not lose too shamefully." Another young priest said as if he had just woken up from a dream.
Hearing their words, Zuo Qiuhan suddenly felt a sudden enlightenment. Indeed, the Flower Rain Temple was limited in size and resources. Abandoned by the Lord God for so many years, it had long since become unable to continue. I heard that the people and priests in the main city were leaving and scattering, and even the temple, which had stood for hundreds of thousands of years, was on the verge of collapse. If Mu Hanyan was truly capable, there was no way she would have stayed and become the chief priest. She would have gone to the Temple of Life to make a living.
The reason why she boasted that the outcome would be decided in one move was, after all, that she just didn't want to be known as someone who didn't help someone in need, nor did she want to lose too badly.
The more Zuo Qiuhan thought about it, the more he felt that they were right. Originally, seeing that Mu Hanyan dared to confront him head-on in order to protect Long Wudang, he was somewhat impressed and even felt a sense of mutual sympathy. After all, they were both protecting their own people. But now, there was only contempt in his eyes.
Hearing what those people said, Long Wudang's face turned pale. Knowing Mu Hanyan, he felt that she shouldn't be that kind of person. But with her strength, how could she possibly defeat Zuo Qiuhan in a single blow? Could it be that she really just wanted to save face and wasn't willing to fight Zuo Qiuhan for her?
How could Long Wudang know that Mu Hanyan at this moment was no longer the Mu Hanyan he had met in Tianyang City. He also didn't know how terrifying Mu Hanyan's current strength was.
"Let's do it." Mu Hanyan didn't care what they were thinking or saying. She held the hilt of the sword and said calmly.
Looking at his calm and composed look, it was clear that he didn't take Zuo Qiuhan seriously and didn't even take the initiative to draw his sword.
"Pretending, I wonder how long you can keep pretending?" Zuo Qiuhan was sure that Mu Hanyan was looking for a way out, and he despised her "pretending" to be a strong person. He sneered and drew out his sword.
Several priests beside him stepped back and made room.
