"My name is Guan Qingyun. I have heard people mention the name of Chief Priest Mu. After meeting him today, I found that he is indeed a man of extraordinary courage and spirit, and his beauty is so stunning that it can't be ignored." Guan Qingyun said with admiration.
Fortunately, although this guy was a bit straightforward, he was elegant and had a good appearance. He was also frank when he said this, so it was not too offensive.
"Oh, thank you very much." Mu Hanyan said perfunctorily, turned away and continued walking forward.
"Wait." Guan Qingyun once again stood in front of Mu Hanyan.
"What do you want to do?" Mu Hanyan was a little impatient.
"I have something very important to inform the High Priest." Guan Qingyun said.
"What's the matter?" Mu Hanyan asked patiently.
"This matter concerns the life and property of Chief Priest Mu. If you handle it improperly, it will bring you fatal disaster. But I also said that it is the duty of our temple priests to help the weak and fight against the strong, so you don't have to thank me..." Guan Qingyun said solemnly.
"What's going on?" Hearing this guy ramble on and on, Mu Hanyan was about to lose her temper. He hadn't even said anything yet, and you're thanking me for anything? Wasn't this guy too self-righteous?
"Zhao Xinghong, I believe the chief priest is familiar with him." Guan Qingyun lowered his voice and said mysteriously, with a weird smile on the corner of his mouth.
Mu Hanyan, Jiang Qiling, Gao Weihu and others were all startled. Why did he mention Zhao Xinghong? Could it be that the matter in the canyon was exposed?
Although Zhao Xinghong violated the laws of the temple first and Mu Hanyan killed him in self-defense, Mu Hanyan's identity was too special. With her normal strength, it was impossible for her to kill Zhao Xinghong. If she investigated carefully, her identity might be exposed, which would bring disaster upon herself.
Jiang Qiling quietly grasped the hilt of the sword, and Gao Weihu's hand also reached behind his back, ready to kill and silence the witness at any time.
Mu Hanyan reached behind her back and quietly waved. Although Guan Qingyun's words also made her feel uneasy, this guy hadn't shown any hostility yet, so she didn't need to lose her temper.
Long Wudang and Jiang Qiling were about to attack, but stopped at Mu Hanyan's gesture, still ready to kill at any moment. Although this guy was just a show-off, that wind-controlling magic weapon was not to be underestimated. If he escaped, chasing him would be difficult.
"There are indeed some misunderstandings between Lord Zhao and me, but that's all in the past." Mu Hanyan said calmly, secretly preparing to take action.
"Is it just a misunderstanding?" Guan Qingyun looked at Mu Hanyan meaningfully, and suddenly took out a goose feather fan like a magic trick, and gently waved it, looking unfathomable.
What was he doing? Was he preparing to put on an opera? Looking at Guan Qingyun, wearing a feather fan and a long scarf, looking like someone who could plan and win battles thousands of miles away, Mu Hanyan and the others were baffled.
"This young master has the wit to spy on the secrets of heaven and learned a huge secret. I am waiting here today for Chief Priest Mu, just to remind the Chief Priest. To be honest, I didn't want to reveal the secret at first, but seeing that the Chief Priest is so talented, it is really a rare genius in the Continent of Gods in a thousand years, except for me, Guan Qingyun. I don't want to see you die young, so I can only risk the danger of heaven's punishment..." Guan Qingyun slapped the goose feather fan fiercely and spoke with saliva flying, not forgetting to flatter himself.
"What exactly do you want to say?" Mu Hanyan became more and more confused as she listened. Her scalp even felt numb after listening to it, so she asked directly.
"Then I'll be frank. According to my astute calculations, Zhao Xinghong will never let you go easily. He will definitely ambush you and kill you along the way!" Having said this, Guan Qingyun slapped his folding fan again, and then continued confidently, "But you don't have to worry. It doesn't matter if I don't know about this matter. Now that I know, I will definitely not let him succeed."
Mu Hanyan and the others looked at each other and almost laughed out loud. Long Wudang looked at Guan Qingyun as if he was an idiot.
Seeing this guy babble like that, their hearts were almost in their throats. After all this fuss, this was exactly what he wanted to say. Worry, Zhao Xinghong was dead, not even a trace of him was left. What was there for them to worry about? Guan Qingyun should be the one who should be worried. He had no idea that he had just walked through the gates of hell. But what was this guy trying to do? Was he trying to flirt with her?
"Aren't you afraid?" Although they didn't laugh out loud, Guan Qingyun still noticed the faint smiles on their faces and said with some confusion.
"Thank you, Master Guan, for reminding me. I understand. But I think that as the right priest of the Temple of Life, Lord Zhao can still distinguish right from wrong and will never openly violate the laws of the temple. We will take our leave now." Mu Hanyan would of course not tell him that she had known about Zhao Xinghong's ambush for a long time, nor would she tell him that Zhao Xinghong was dead without even a trace left. She said this with righteous indignation.
"Wait, wait, wait, you've misjudged Zhao Xinghong. He is not as upright as I am. He is stubborn, narrow-minded, and vindictive. You whipped Zhao Xinghu before, and then you confronted him in Qianlongyuan and hurt his reputation. He must hate you to the core. If it were in the Continent of Gods, he might have some concerns, but the Black Wood Prison is not under the control of the Temple. If he kills you secretly, no one will know. How can he worry about violating the laws of the Temple?" Guan Qingyun once again stood in front of Mu Hanyan, pretending to be old and experienced in the ups and downs of the world, and spoke earnestly.
"Then what do you think I should do?" Hearing his words so harshly and since he had already told the truth, Mu Hanyan could not act indifferent and could only ask with a serious expression.
After all, on the surface, there was still a huge gap in strength between her and Zhao Xinghong, not to mention that Zhao Xinghong had brought most of the Zhao family's elites with him to the Black Wood Prison this time. If she didn't take it seriously, wouldn't it be obvious that there was something wrong?
"How about this, I have some friendship with the Zhao family. How about I ask for a favor for you? You apologize to the Zhao family in public, and they should give me face." Guan Qingyun said with his head held high and his chest puffed out, looking conceited.
"I appreciate Master Guan's kindness, but what Zhao Xinghu did in the Flower Rain Temple violated the temple's laws. Zhao Xinghong also made things difficult for me in Qianlong Valley, using shameless and despicable means. Why should I apologize to them?
As the saying goes, heaven and earth have righteousness. I just don't believe that under such bright and clear circumstances, he really dares to defy the laws of the temple and commit crimes openly. As the head priest of a temple, I, Mu Hanyan, will never surrender! Even if I die, I will never encourage their arrogance. "Mu Hanyan said righteously. Jiang Qiling and the others wanted to laugh as they listened to this. Why did these words sound so weird coming from Mu Hanyan's mouth?
