This funny guy in front of her was as sticky as a piece of taffy. Although he didn't do anything rude on the surface, Mu Hanyan always felt that he had bad intentions and didn't want to get entangled with him anymore.
Mu Hanyan didn't even look back and walked away quickly with Jiang Qiling and others.
Guan Qingyun was shocked by Mu Hanyan's words. Looking at her walking away, there was a hint of intoxication in his eyes.
"What kind of person is this? She doesn't know what's good for her. The young master is so kind, but she doesn't appreciate it. After all, she is the chief priest of a hall, how can she be so childish?" The servant behind him said disapprovingly, holding the guqin.
"What do you know?" Guan Qingyun glared at him fiercely.
The servant was startled and quickly shut up.
"The world is full of righteousness. Well said, well said. I never thought that in the temple under the jurisdiction of my Temple of Life, there would be such a person who is not afraid of power and remains untainted by the mud, and she is a woman." Guan Qingyun said with emotion.
"Young Master, you are not really attracted to her, are you? There are so many ladies from wealthy families in Xiaoshentian, but none of them are pleasing to you. How come you are attracted to her?" The servant asked with some confusion.
"What do you know? Those so-called ladies of noble families in Xiaoshentian are either domineering because of their family background, or they live in seclusion and have shallow knowledge. If they don't have family background, they are just a group of mediocre women. How can they be worthy of me, Guan Qingyun? This Mu Hanyan has such beauty, such talent, and such character. She is a thousand times better than those mediocre women." Guan Qingyun said, obviously disdaining those so-called ladies of noble families in Xiaoshentian, and having a special affection for Mu Hanyan.
"But her background..." the servant said hesitantly.
"What does it matter if I come from a humble background? I, Guan Qingyun, am a genius. If I were to stick to prejudices, wouldn't I be a cliché?" Guan Qingyun said disapprovingly.
"Young master, what you said makes sense. However, according to the information we have gathered, Zhao Xinghong will most likely kill Mu Hanyan. If they rush there to die like this, won't all your efforts be in vain?" The servant said worriedly.
"Yes, I would have forgotten if you hadn't mentioned it. Let's hurry up and follow her. Even if Zhao Xinghong hates her to the core, he can't possibly not give me face. If I show up at the critical moment, Mu Hanyan will definitely fall in love with me at first sight and fall in love with me again. Hahahaha." Guan Qingyun shook the goose feather fan and said complacently.
The two of them talked and talked, but neither of them considered one question: Guan Qingyun liked Mu Hanyan, but Mu Hanyan might not like him?
It's no wonder. Guan Qingyun came from a good background, and in Xiaoshentian, he was a disciple of a powerful master. Coupled with his stunning appearance, even the most discerning daughters of Xiaoshentian's wealthy families looked at him with a different eye, and some even flirted with him. In their eyes, Mu Hanyan was just the head priest of a declining temple. They had never seen a playboy like Young Master Guan. With just a little bit of his influence, it would be strange if Mu Hanyan wasn't completely captivated.
"Wait!" Guan Qingyun stopped after just a few steps, took out a jade communication talisman, and was slightly stunned after reading it.
"What happened, young master?" Seeing that he looked strange, the servant asked curiously.
"Zhao Xinghong is dead." Guan Qingyun said a little confused.
He came to see Mu Hanyan for two reasons. One was that he received a message from his father saying that the chief priestess of Huayu Temple, Mu Hanyan, had extraordinary talent, courage and spirit, and was as beautiful as a man. She was also gifted with a stunning appearance and was the perfect match for him. He wanted to see it for himself.
Another thing is that if Mu Hanyan is really as outstanding as his father said, or if she is still acceptable, he should remind her about Zhao Xinghong and help her out of the difficulty, leaving a good impression on her first.
Upon seeing her, Guan Qingyun was impressed by her unparalleled beauty and refined temperament. He then began to act pretentiously and mysteriously, revealing to Mu Hanyan the ambush set by Zhao Xinghong. He had been planning to rescue her at the critical moment and win her heart, but Zhao Xinghong had actually died.
"That's impossible. Zhao Xinghong has reached the level of a tenth-rank Divine Heart Priest. Even the Chief Priest finds it difficult to defeat him, let alone kill him. How could he die? Is the news wrong?" The green-clothed servant opened his mouth and said in disbelief.
"Father's message said that his soul tablet was broken. How could the news be wrong?" Guan Qingyun shook his head and said.
"Then how did he die?" the servant asked in confusion.
"Do you think Mu Hanyan's previous behavior was a bit strange?" Guan Qingyun suddenly said.
Thinking back to Mu Hanyan's previous words, even if she was really righteous and refused to succumb to power, she seemed a little too calm.
"You mean she killed Zhao Xinghong? How is that possible?" The servant's mouth opened as wide as a duck egg.
What a joke! Even if Mu Hanyan's talent was incredible, her age was still there. How could she possibly match Zhao Xinghong's centuries of cultivation? If they were to fight, she'd be thankful to be alive. How could she possibly kill him?
"No, what I mean is, has she known about Zhao Xinghong's death for a long time?" Guan Qingyun said. Of course, he didn't think that Mu Hanyan had the ability to kill Zhao Xinghong.
"But young master, you just received the news. How did she know it?" The servant still couldn't figure it out.
"We only speculated that Zhao Xinghong would attack Mu Hanyan based on some clues, but we don't know where and when he would do it. Maybe he ambushed her, but died before he could attack her, and was just seen by Mu Hanyan. It is precisely for this reason that Mu Hanyan is fearless and ignored my reminder. Do you think my analysis makes sense?" Guan Qingyun speculated.
"Young Master, how did Zhao Xinghong die?" the servant asked. After talking for a long time, he didn't even know how Zhao Xinghong died, so how could he know if his words made sense.
"It is said that he died from the siege of strange beasts. Zhao Xinghong hunted a lot of strange beasts in the Black Wood Prison this time, which probably attracted the crazy revenge of the strange beasts. The Zhao family elites and the accompanying lower-level temple priests were all wiped out. It is inferred that Zhao Xinghong himself died by self-explosion, so his body was not found." Guan Qingyun said.
"In that case, the young master's analysis does make sense. I didn't expect Mu Hanyan to be so lucky that she managed to escape such a disaster." The servant said with emotion.
"I'm just guessing. The truth may not be so." Guan Qingyun waved his hand and said.
"Young master, you are too modest. Your foresight is so brilliant that few people can compare with you, not to mention in the five upper temples. Even in the lesser gods' heaven, your guesses are almost right." The servant looked at Guan Qingyun with admiration and flattered him deeply.
