In fact, she did not expect that Liu Rande, who was so old and had an extraordinary family background, could be so despicable and shameless, and disregard the dignity of a priest at all, and even come up with such means.
But she didn't know that Liu Rande was originally a person who only lived for a living and waited for death. He knew that he had no future in this life, and no one took him seriously. Over the years, he had indulged in drinking, gambling, whoring and bullying. How could he have the dignity of a priest?
"Master Mu, that's not what I meant. I have no grudge against you, so why would I be so mean to you? I'm simply seeking justice for the children of the Liu family," Liu Rande said righteously. Unfortunately, after hearing his previous words, everyone knew he was a shameless old scoundrel, and they despised his pretense.
"Okay, you want justice, and I will give you justice. I challenge you as the chief priest of Huayu. I will fight you fairly. As long as you can defeat the sword in my hand, I will agree to whatever you say." Mu Hanyan drew out the sword and said.
"Master Priest Mu, you absolutely cannot do that!" Chu Yanghe and the others were all horrified.
The Huayu Temple possesses such a powerful formation that Liu Rande has no chance of hurting Mu Hanyan at all. Even if he really wants to attack civilians, he dare not go too far. Otherwise, if the matter gets out of hand, the Life Temple will not be able to ignore it. If the main temple is alarmed, Liu Rande will be in big trouble.
In other words, at most, only dozens of civilians would die. As the chief priest, why would Mu Hanyan challenge Liu Rande for them? It was really unwise.
"Lord Chu, you don't have to persuade me. Whether they are priests or civilians, as long as they are the people of Huayu City, they will never allow themselves to be bullied. If anyone wants to hurt them, they have to walk over my corpse." Mu Hanyan said firmly.
Originally, she wanted to save some face for Liu Rande, but since he could even come up with such a despicable method, today's matter must be put to an end, otherwise the people in the city will be implicated by her.
To Chu Yanghe and others, the life and death of a few civilians might not matter at all, but Mu Hanyan was different. Every citizen of Huayu City was her subject and her relative, and she would never tolerate anyone harming her relatives.
Chu Yanghe and others looked at Mu Hanyan and wanted to say something, but they couldn't utter a word. They felt admiration and shame in their hearts.
It's no wonder that Huayu City has grown from a nearly extinct ancient city to its current size in less than a year. With such a magnificent scene, it would become so powerful. With such a chief priest, Huayu City couldn't help but become powerful.
"You want to challenge me?" Liu Rande looked at Mu Hanyan as if she were a fool. He was a powerful tenth-order soul priest at the peak of his powers. Mu Hanyan was just a chief priest of a lower-level temple. How could she dare to challenge him? Wasn't this a joke?
"Hahahaha, I've seen people who don't know how to live or die, but I've never seen anyone as ignorant as this one. Mu Hanyan, are you out of your mind?" Behind Liu Qianyuan, two young priests were laughing so hard that they fell forward and backward. They were Shi Renjie and Lu Guanyu.
"You are here too?" Mu Hanyan didn't notice the two of them at first, but when she saw them, she said with a smile.
"Mu Hanyan, you actually dared to challenge Lord Liu. I wonder who can save you this time." Lu Guanyu said, stroking his beard and staring.
"Mu Hanyan, you'd better be careful and don't lose your life. We will seek justice from you later." Shi Renjie said viciously.
"Okay, I understand." Mu Hanyan nodded.
"Lord Liu, let's do it." Mu Hanyan turned her head and said to Liu Rande.
"Mu Hanyan, you really don't need to use formations and want to fight me fairly?" Liu Rande asked.
"Not bad." Mu Hanyan said.
"Okay, okay, no wonder you dare to ignore my Liu family. You are indeed brave. I won't bully you. Ten moves. As long as you can still stand after ten moves, I will let you go." Liu Rande said arrogantly.
"Ten moves, are you sure?" Mu Hanyan said curiously.
"Don't you think ten moves are enough? This is already a break I've given you. If you're afraid, you can kowtow and beg for mercy now." Liu Rande said.
"Okay, you said ten moves, then let's do ten moves." Mu Hanyan thought about it, came to the middle of the hall, and stood opposite Liu Rande.
The others also stepped back to make enough space.
"Let's get started." Liu Rande said with his hands behind his back and his head held high.
"You should take action first." Mu Hanyan shook her head.
"You are the junior, I don't want to bully you, you go first." Liu Rande said with a domineering look on his face again.
"But I'm afraid of hurting you." Mu Hanyan said.
"What did you say!" Liu Rande looked at Mu Hanyan in a daze, almost suspecting that there was something wrong with his ears.
"You said we would fight for ten moves. I'm afraid I can knock you down with just one move. If we can't fight for ten moves, you'll cheat and say I lost." Mu Hanyan said sincerely.
"You little girl, you don't know how to live or die. You still dare to show off your eloquence when you are about to die!" Liu Rande was furious and was too lazy to put on airs as a senior. He slashed at Mu Hanyan with a sword.
The unique energy of the law of death was overwhelming, and the light in the entire hall dimmed a lot.
As the energy was released, a silver sword light suddenly appeared before his eyes, continuously expanding and completely covering Mu Hanyan.
"It's over, it's over. Mu Hanyan has lost her mind. She actually dared to provoke a powerful tenth-level Divine Heart Priest. She is dead now. I haven't gotten justice yet." Shi Renjie was frightened by the terrifying sword power and took several steps back. He patted his chest and said.
"What, the peak of the tenth-order Divine Heart Priest!" Chu Yanghe and the others felt a sinking feeling in their hearts. They could only barely see that Liu Rande was very strong and should have reached the realm of the tenth-order Divine Heart Priest, but they did not expect that he had actually reached the peak.
Mu Hanyan could not contend with such strength.
"Lord An, please persuade Chief Priest Mu to apologize as it's still time." Chu Yanghe said to An Xiaxin anxiously.
"No need, I trust the High Priest." An Xiaxin said calmly.
To be honest, she was also shocked by Liu Rande's strength. However, she knew Mu Hanyan's character. Since she dared to challenge Liu Rande, she must be absolutely confident, so she was not too worried.
"Don't worry, Lord Chu. The chief priest will be fine." Shen Yuhe said as she looked at the two people in the field with great interest.
Chu Yanghe then realized that apart from the chief priests like them, no one in the Huayu Temple was worried at all. They all looked heartless.
Could it be that these guys are eager for the chief priest to die soon so that they can seize power? Chu Yanghe couldn't help but think.
