Chapter 2214: Rich Bait



Now that she thought about it carefully, it seemed that the technique of concentrating the mind to break the law was somewhat different from the Tianxin technique that she advanced to after obtaining the eighth piece of the Destiny Star Plate.

If she could find the original text of the technique, perhaps her Tianxin technique would be further improved! She might even be able to comprehend the power of the fourth law, which might help her break through the bottleneck and reach a higher level.

"Although I was still young at that time, I will not remember this matter wrongly." Gao Weihu said affirmatively.

"In that case, I need to go to this Soul Palace." Mu Hanyan said.

"However, how could Guan Xiujin and the others leave such a good opportunity for you? They must have ulterior motives. It's better to be cautious," Gao Weihu said cautiously. If it were him, he would definitely not miss such an opportunity, even if it meant risking his life. But with Mu Hanyan, he had to be more cautious.

"Wealth and honor are achieved through risk. If Guan Xiujing and others had good intentions, such a good thing would not be my turn." Mu Hanyan said with a smile.

With her current strength, if she fights alone, it will not be easy for Guan Xiujing and others to defeat her. Even if they join forces, can't she just run away if she can't win?

Besides, if she was really pushed to the edge, she still had her sword skills, and it was hard to say who would live and who would die in a life-and-death struggle. At the Spirit Realm, there would be no outsiders present, so even if she killed those old guys, probably no one would know how they died.

Gao Weihu also thought of this and grinned: Guan Xiujin and others saw the battle between Mu Hanyan and Gao Weihu, and thought that her strength was just that. They had no idea how terrifying her strength would be if she fought with all her strength. They even wanted to attack Mu Hanyan in the Soul Palace. This time, they were afraid that they would lose more than they gained.

"What? One hundred and eighty Heavenly Falling Divine Renewal Pills and Zhengyang Divine True Pills. Is Mu Hanyan crazy because of poverty? Why doesn't she just go and rob them?" In the main priest hall, after hearing Guan Qingyun's reply, Guan Xiujing and others were so shocked that they couldn't close their mouths, and then they started cursing.

The Heavenly Falling God Resurrection Pill and the True Yang God Pill—one for healing, the other for strengthening realms and improving cultivation—were both the Life Temple's top-tier elixirs, and even they didn't have many. Mu Hanyan's demands were exorbitant, demanding a hundred or eighty pills straight away. It was like she was blackmailing them.

The most infuriating thing is that others would never dream of having the opportunity to go to the Soul Palace to practice and gain experience, but Mu Hanyan not only made excuses and refused to give in, but also took the opportunity to blackmail them. She is really ungrateful.

"She said she had just gone astray and was seriously injured. Huayu City is poor and she doesn't even have the money to buy pills to heal her." Guan Qingyun was also full of resentment and said in a low voice.

"What, possessed? He was fine just now, how could he be possessed?" Guan Xiu Jin shouted with his eyes wide open.

"Huayu City is poor? I heard that Huayu City has been doing very well recently. It is so prosperous that even the twelve lower-level temples are jealous of it. What's more, she has more than 200,000 five-colored soul beads on her. If she sells any of them, she will become rich. If she is considered poor, Chu Yanghe and others will probably have to go out begging." Jiang Ruchu said indignantly.

They haven't received their salaries for several months. In order to appease the people below, they even paid a lot of money out of their own pockets. Their lives are getting tighter and tighter. Mu Hanyan has 200,000 five-colored soul beads on her body, but she has the nerve to cry poor in front of them and even blackmail them. Does she have any moral integrity at all?

"Don't pay attention to her, she can go or not!" said a relatively young and hot-tempered priest hatefully.

"In my opinion, Mu Hanyan's exorbitant request may not be a bad thing." Just when Guan Xiujing and others were furious, Gao Weilong said with a gloomy face, as if thinking about something.

"Oh, what does Mr. Gao mean?" Guan Xiu Jin asked.

"As long as Mu Hanyan is not stupid, she should have guessed our intention. We are afraid that she will refuse outright. If she is determined not to go to the Soul Palace, we really can't do anything to her in the short term. She just asked for a high price and did not refuse firmly, which means she is still tempted. As long as she goes to the Soul Palace, she will be at our mercy. What's a little pill? Let her be proud for a while, and sooner or later she will spit out everything she put in with interest!" Gao Weihu said with a cruel look on his face.

His words awakened Guan Xiujin and the others, and they suddenly understood. Indeed, if Mu Hanyan remained unmoved, that would be their biggest problem. As long as she was willing to go to the Spirit Hall, what did it matter if she asked for too much? After all, once she was there, who would be afraid she wouldn't confess?

"Master Gao, what you said makes sense." Guan Xiujin stroked his beard and nodded, then said with embarrassment, "But everyone knows the recent situation in the temple. In order to supplement the cultivation resources of Yang Wensheng and Qiu Yongcheng, the Tianluo Shenhuan Pill and Zhengyang Shenzhen Pill are running low. There are only about twenty pills in total."

"Let's do this. I have two Tianluo Shenhuan Pills and three Zhengyang Shenzhen Pills in my collection at home. Let's take them out and use them as a temporary solution." Gao Weilong said.

It seems that he has gone all out to deal with Mu Hanyan, even taking out this secret elixir.

"Brother Gao, do you want to discuss this with Lord Gao first?" Guan Qingyun said worriedly.

As the saying goes, the enemy of my enemy is my friend. With Mu Hanyan as their common enemy, and the intention to win him over, Guan Qingyun and Gao Weilong naturally became close, and they didn't want him to cause trouble.

After all, the head of the Gao family is Gao Pengcheng. Even if Gao Weilong has his trust, he cannot use family resources at will.

"It doesn't matter. We can get it back soon anyway." Gao Weilong waved his hand and ordered someone to go to the Gao family to get the pills.

"How about this, I have four Tianluo Shenhuan Pills and seven Zhengyang Shenzhen Pills left at home, let's take them out to meet the emergency." Seeing that Gao Weilong had done this, Guan Xiujin felt embarrassed to keep it to himself, so he sent his confidant home to get the pills.

"I also have six Tianluo Shenhuan Pills and three Zhengyang Shenzhen Pills." Jiang Ruchu carried the pills with him and took them out immediately.

The other priests also took out their wallets and took out two kinds of elixirs that they had treasured.

But even so, in the end, only eighty-three Tianluo Shenhuan Pills and sixty-nine Zhengyang Shenzhen Pills were collected.

"It's still a little short, what should we do?" Jiang Ruchu asked.

"Anyway, Mu Hanyan didn't give a specific number, so it should be about right. Qingyun, you should talk to her about it. If it really doesn't work, just sign a document first and then give her the full amount after she comes out of the Soul Palace." Guan Xiujin said.

Anyway, they had no intention of letting Mu Hanyan leave the Spirit Hall peacefully, so there was nothing wrong with signing a written agreement, and they could just ask her to hand it over when the time came.
