Several trusted priests looked at each other in bewilderment. "Even the mighty Guan family's Nether Spring Seven-Star Sword couldn't do anything to Mu Hanyan, and it was destroyed by her, and Guan Qingyun was also seriously injured. And you actually ask us how to proceed?" We dare not even think about this question.
"Master Priest, you guys discuss this matter. I won't get involved." At this time, Jiang Ruchu stood up and said.
Seeing that Guan Xiujing was still stubborn, he was completely disappointed and didn't want to interfere in future matters.
"Master Priest, I won't participate either." Surprisingly, Kong Renhe also stood up and walked out.
You have to know that he hated Mu Hanyan to the core before, and among all people, he was the one who was most unwilling to let Mu Hanyan go.
But after another thought, everyone suddenly realized that they had been severely tricked by Guan Xiu Jin and even their ancestral magic sword was destroyed. It would be strange if they were still on the same page with Guan Xiu Jin.
With this thought, the other high priests also lost heart and left the hall. They couldn't control Zhao Xinghong anyway, and if they did, there would be someone higher up to take the blame. Even if they were implicated, the punishment wouldn't be too severe, so why bother getting involved in this mess again? Besides, hadn't Kong Renhe's lesson been enough? They didn't want to be sold out like him and then foolishly help others count the money.
Soon, only Guan Xiujin and a few trusted priests were left in the hall. Oh, and there were also two outsiders, Liu Taian and Liu Qianyuan, father and son.
Guan Xiujin was suddenly deserted by everyone. His eyes were filled with anger and his old face turned ashen, but he did not lose his temper.
"Chief Priest Liu, I'm sorry to have embarrassed you. I'm also sorry that I couldn't fulfill my promise to you." Guan Xiujing said apologetically to Liu Taian.
"It's okay. You can't be blamed for this. You have all tried your best." Liu Taian waved his hand and said magnanimously.
In fact, after seeing the Wind-Climbing Sword, which he had spent a Galaxy Divine Glass Stone to repair, so easily destroyed by Mu Hanyan, and ultimately allowing Mu Hanyan to successfully ascend to the summit and obtain the position of Right Priest, he was actually filled with resentment, but he suppressed it because he knew very well that getting angry or blaming each other at this time was meaningless.
Mu Hanyan's strength was far too strong, far exceeding his expectations. Even if he attacked her personally, he would definitely not be her opponent. If he wanted to deal with her, he would have to join forces with Guan Xiujin.
Seeing Liu Taian's generosity, Guan Xiujin was somewhat moved. This was the so-called "a person's true character is revealed in times of adversity." He was much better than Kong Renhe, a coward who was greedy for life and betrayed his friends. He had never considered that the reason Kong Renhe turned away from him was not because of his cowardice and betrayal, but because he had stabbed him in the back.
"Master Guan, what are you going to do next?" Liu Taian asked.
"I haven't made up my mind yet, but I will never let Mu Hanyan go. I will also help you get your Liu family's artifact back." Guan Xiujin said gritting his teeth. After that, he ordered one of his men, "Go see if Mu Hanyan has left. Keep an eye on her. Report back immediately if she moves. As long as she hasn't reached the Lesser God Heaven, we will always have a chance to take her."
Liu Taian nodded secretly. Guan Xiujin's order was obviously wise. At this moment, even if Liu Taian thought about it, he would not be able to come up with any solution. Instead of overthinking it, it would be better to keep a close eye on Mu Hanyan first. As the saying goes, it's not the thief you are afraid of, but the thief's thoughts. Keep a close eye on her, and maybe you can find an opportunity to strike.
