"Du Tiancheng crushed the talisman of Yu Lingfu, the head of the Dou family. This place is not far from the sealed forbidden area, and someone will be here soon." Ye Congyun explained again.
As soon as the words fell, Mu Hanyan saw dozens of black spots coming rapidly from a distance.
Although the distance is still far, judging by the speed, we will be here in a moment.
"Let's go!" Mu Hanyan made a quick decision and said to Taotie.
The two of them leaped up and flew away following Ye Congyun.
Although there were still a few survivors, Mu Hanyan didn't care. Those who survived were all seriously injured and their cultivation was completely destroyed. For a priest, this was actually more painful than killing them directly, and the price paid was also more painful.
As for silencing someone? Mu Hanyan hadn't even considered it. She'd been suspicious since she'd first encountered the young priest in Lesser Divine Heaven, who'd nearly let the cat out of the bag. Then, when Du Tiancheng and the others arrived so quickly, she understood what was going on. Du Tiancheng and the others had no idea when she'd arrived in Divine Heaven, and she'd been careful along the way, finding no sign of them. If no one in Lesser Divine Heaven had tipped her off, how could they have arrived so quickly?
In other words, even if she killed Du Tiancheng and others, it would be easy for others to guess that she was the culprit, and killing to silence them would be a joke.
On the contrary, if they were caught and exposed, the consequences would be even more troublesome. Although the fact that Du Tiancheng and Ye Congyun had a fight after a disagreement showed that priest families like Xiaoshentian acted openly and had fewer scruples, Mu Hanyan would never believe that Xiaoshentian was so naive that they had no rules at all.
"Fortunately, we moved quickly, otherwise we would be in trouble." As expected, Ye Cong walked like a cloud, riding the wind, while explaining, "The major families in Xiaoshentian are intertwined, and there are bound to be open and secret struggles, and even life-and-death struggles. Under normal circumstances, the Lord God will turn a blind eye, but if the Divine Punishment Priest catches you in the act, the Lord God will never let you go easily."
"Divine Punishment Priest?" Mu Hanyan asked curiously.
"The Divine Punishment Priest is equivalent to the Abstinence and Punishment Priest of the five higher temples, but of course their status and strength are incomparable. The Divine Punishment Priest has always been in turn held by the Twelve Divine Protection Priests. The Divine Punishment Priest of this term is Dou Nanshan." Ye Congyun said.
"So that's how it is." Mu Hanyan suddenly realized.
If the Divine Punishment Priest was someone else, even if they were caught, they could still argue with reason. After all, Du Tiancheng and others took action first, and they only killed people for self-protection. But the Divine Punishment Priest this time happened to be Dou Nanshan. He would not be so ungrateful. If they fell into his hands, they would not even have a chance to argue.
"It's a pity that Du Tiancheng was spared." Mu Hanyan felt somewhat regretful when mentioning Du Tiancheng. This guy was indeed quite powerful, and leaving him alive was always a hidden danger.
"It's better not to kill him. After all, he is Dou Nanshan's disciple and a guest of the Dou family. Dou Nanshan is also very concerned about his reputation. If you kill him, you will really have a mortal enemy.
Moreover, in the Lesser God Realm, no one would casually kill such a powerful and distinguished individual unless they were truly determined to fight to the death, even at the cost of annihilating their entire clan. Take me, for example. Although I'm still a bit weaker, Du Tiancheng wouldn't dare kill me unless he was determined to annihilate the Ye clan. To do so would be a grave taboo, unacceptable to the other clans," Ye Congyun said, half comfortingly, half explaining.
Mu Hanyan nodded secretly. With her current strength, it would be inappropriate for her to become a mortal enemy with Dou Nanshan.
"By the way, may I ask what Senior Ye's status is in the Ye family?" Hearing this, Mu Hanyan couldn't help but become curious about Ye Congyun's identity.
"To be honest, I am only serving as the chief elder of the Ye family temporarily." Ye Congyun said ashamedly.
As the eldest elder of the Ye family, he was not taken seriously by Du Tiancheng at all. It was a bit embarrassing that he was defeated by him twice in a row.
Mu Hanyan didn't think so. A lean camel is still bigger than a horse. After all, the Ye family is a priest family of the Lesser God Heaven. Ye Congyun, with the honorable status of the Great Elder, came to greet her in person. She was flattered and how could she underestimate him.
"By the way, who is this?" Perhaps feeling embarrassed, Ye Congyun didn't want to say more about his identity, and looked at Taotie curiously.
"This is my natal pet." Mu Hanyan replied.
She only had a divine talisman and could not bring other people into the Lesser God's Heaven. However, her natal sacrificial pet and the priest had a blood bond and were not subject to this restriction, so she had already thought of an identity for Taotie.
"No wonder." Ye Congyun didn't doubt it. He looked at Taotie carefully for a few times and said puzzledly, "Why does your sacrificial pet look a bit like Taotie, one of the four ferocious beasts in legend?"
"Well, it was born from the hybrid of Taotie and other exotic beasts. It does have the blood of Taotie." Mu Hanyan didn't want people to know the true identity of Taotie, so she responded casually.
"It turns out to be a hybrid beast. However, it has such strength and its bloodline is still very pure. Maybe it even has some anti-ancestral mutations. You are lucky." Ye Congyun said with emotion.
In fact, many ancient exotic beasts, even divine beasts, have bloodline inheritance, but in many cases they give birth to offspring with exotic beasts of other races. After millions of years of history, the bloodline of their offspring has become increasingly mixed and impure. Some exotic beasts claiming to have the bloodline of divine beasts are not even as powerful as ordinary exotic beasts.
Only those strange beasts that have reverted to their ancestral form and mutated, whose bloodlines are far superior to their peers, can reproduce some of their ancestors' style. Of course, the probability of this happening is extremely small. Mu Hanyan's luck is indeed enviable that she can find one.
"Yes, yes, I am lucky." Mu Hanyan said perfunctorily.
Beside him, Taotie glared at Ye Congyun with a pale face: I am the genuine Great Taotie, how come I accidentally became a bastard and even regressed to my ancestral state? You are the one who regressed to your ancestral state, and your whole family has regressed to your ancestral state!
He was about to lose his temper, but Mu Hanyan glared at him fiercely, so he could only hold it in. He also knew that his identity was too special. If it were exposed, there was no telling how much trouble it would cause.
"Chief Priest Mu, can I discuss something with you?" Ye Congyun said with some embarrassment.
"Elder Ye, don't be so formal. Just say what you want to say." Mu Hanyan said.
"The spiritual power of my wind-controlling magic weapon is almost exhausted. Why don't you get on your mount and leave here first?" Ye Congyun wiped the sweat from his forehead and said awkwardly.
"Of course no problem." Mu Hanyan said.
Previously, when Ye Congyun came riding the wind, she thought that his strength had reached the level of a Soul Priest. However, after seeing him repeatedly defeated by Du Tiancheng, she realized that his strength was the same as Gao Pengcheng's, and he could only be considered half a step away from the Soul. The reason why he could ride the wind was only because he used a wind-controlling magic weapon. Of course, the quality of this wind-controlling magic weapon was far superior to the one on Guan Qingyun. In addition, his strength was only one step away from a Soul Priest, so riding the wind was even easier. Even Mu Hanyan underestimated his strength.
