The father of the two brothers Gao Weilong and Gao Weihu is the chief priest of punishment in the Temple of Life, and their immediate superior. How could they possibly watch the Gao brothers fighting in public in the hall?
While persuading them, several people also made faces at Mu Hanyan, implying that she should take her people away quickly and stop causing trouble.
"Weihu, stop!" Mu Hanyan shouted in a clear voice.
Gao Weihu took a deep breath and slowly put away the giant axe.
"Gao Weilong, Gao Weihu is now a member of my Huayu Temple. I hope you won't do anything inappropriate again. Otherwise, Gao Weihu, think about the brotherhood. I have nothing to do with your Gao family." Mu Hanyan looked at Gao Weilong and said coldly.
"Are you threatening me, Master Priest?" Gao Weilong asked, his face suddenly revealing a harmless smile.
"Well, that's up to you," Mu Hanyan said calmly, her eyes determined. Gao Weilong was indeed much more cunning than Gao Weihu, but Mu Hanyan wasn't afraid of him.
"I have remembered what the High Priest said, but please also remember my words. You can protect him for a while, but you cannot protect him forever. So, let him be more careful." Gao Weilong put away his smile and said indifferently.
"Let's go!" Mu Hanyan glanced at him, then left with Jiang Qiling and others.
The law enforcement priests breathed a sigh of relief and didn't say anything to stop them. After all, the magic tools stored by the several people had already been checked and found to be correct. The so-called identity verification was just a formality. Hadn't the previous people checked it too? At most, they asked a few questions and left it at that. They didn't want to make any more trouble over such a small matter.
Kong Renhe never thought that there was anything wrong with the origins of Jiang Qiling and Taotie. He just felt that if he just let them go, even the last bit of his dignity would be gone, so he handled the matter impartially. When interrupted by the Gao brothers, he was too lazy to ask any more questions and let Mu Hanyan and others leave.
"It was such a close call. I thought there would be a bloody battle today, but I managed to escape it." After leaving Qianlong Valley, Jiang Qiling said, patting her chest with lingering fear.
"What bloody battle?" Long Wudang didn't know the origins of her and Taotie, and his face was full of confusion.
"Just now, that old man Kong kept making things difficult for the chief priest. I almost couldn't help but take action. Fortunately, I managed to hold back." Jiang Qiling explained.
"That old man is a bit hateful. It's just that there are too many people around and it's hard to do anything to him. Otherwise, I would have beaten him so badly that he couldn't take care of himself." Long Wudang said arrogantly without thinking too much.
He is worthy of being the one favored by Taotie. Even before becoming his apprentice, he has already learned 70% of the bragging skills.
"Well said, this is more like my Taotie's disciple!" Taotie was obviously quite satisfied with Long Wudang's bragging skills and slapped him on the back.
"Bang!" Following Kong Renhe, another human figure in the shape of the character "大" appeared on the stone wall not far away.
Looking at Long Wudang and others playing, Gao Weihu also grinned, but there was a hint of bitterness in his eyes, and he remained silent.
"What are you thinking about?" Mu Hanyan asked.
"I think he is right. This is a world where the strong are respected and the weak are preyed upon. The strong have the responsibilities of the strong, and the weak have the obligations of the weak." Gao Weihu took a deep breath and said.
"You don't really want to commit suicide, do you?" Jiang Qiling looked at Gao Weihu with some concern.
Although they had known each other for a short time, they had once joined forces to fight against the enemy Zhan Yuan, and they could be considered to have a life-and-death friendship. She didn't want to see Gao Weihu slit his own throat because of a few words from his elder brother.
"No, if only the strong can survive, I am willing to be a strong man." Gao Weihu shook his head and said with clenched fists.
The Gao Weihu in front of them was still the same Gao Weihu as before, seemingly unchanged. However, when these words came out of his mouth, everyone felt a determination and domineering aura that they had never felt before in him.
It seems that Gao Weilong's appearance was not a bad thing. Not only did it help them resolve a crisis, but it also made Gao Weihu undergo such a transformation. Thinking of this, Mu Hanyan's heart suddenly moved slightly.
When Kong Renhe ordered the verification of their identities, he actually just wanted to save his last bit of face and had no intention of continuing to embarrass them. However, Mu Hanyan herself knew that that was actually their biggest crisis. Gao Weilong happened to attack Gao Weihu at this time to help them overcome the difficulties. Is this really just a coincidence?
Furthermore, although Gao Weilong's words to Gao Weihu were cruel, they were also an indisputable fact. It was also for this reason that Gao Weihu's mentality underwent a subtle change.
In the past, Gao Weihu seemed cruel and ruthless to outsiders, but he actually had a very soft side in his heart. He cared too much about brotherhood and did not want his brothers to kill each other, so he kept giving in. In order not to fall out with Gao Weilong, he even gave up on himself. If Gao Weilong had not been aggressive and finally forced him to die in the Black Wood Prison, he might still be gnawing on pig heads and waiting to die in Tianyang City.
Everything Gao Weilong did seemed to force Gao Weihu into a desperate situation again and again, but if you think about it carefully, this kind of coercion is similar to the torture of Taotie.
This Gao Weilong is quite interesting.
Outside the valley stood a number of priestly families, waiting to welcome their descendants back. However, none of them were from the Flower Rain Temple, due to Mu Hanyan's orders. Flower Rain City was booming, and manpower was needed everywhere. Sikong Qinglan and the others were well-positioned, so there was no need to send them on extra trips for such a small matter.
After leaving Qianlong Valley, Mu Hanyan and others set out on their return journey.
"Mu Hanyan, sooner or later, I will make you kneel down and beg for mercy, to avenge today's shame." From a distance, Liu Qianyuan said gritting his teeth as he watched Mu Hanyan and others leave.
"Young master, Mu Hanyan is too powerful, and Gao Weihu is not a pushover either. Why don't we go back to the Temple of Death first and ask the High Priest to make the decision." One of the subordinates said worriedly, and the others also looked worried.
There was no way to deal with Mu Hanyan in the Black Wood Prison, and now he comes to someone else's territory and wants to embarrass himself. Isn't that courting death?
Liu Qianyuan's status was obvious, so no matter how ruthless Mu Hanyan was, she wouldn't dare do anything to him. But she felt no pressure in dealing with these small fry. Didn't you see how even Kong Renhe was humiliated in front of Mu Hanyan? He was the Prayer Priest of the Temple of Life, Mu Hanyan's immediate superior, and yet she didn't even give him face. They didn't think their own strength and status could compare to Kong Renhe's.
Liu Qianyuan glared at him. If he dared to go back to the Temple of Death, he would have gone back long ago. Why did he still need to talk nonsense?
"Juan, take the others back to the Temple of Death. Lin Qing, Yao De, you two follow me." Liu Qianyuan ordered.
"Young master, aren't you going back?" the priest named Juan asked hesitantly.
