Behind him, the children of the Ye family cheered in unison. They had never thought that the Great Elder would comprehend two laws as soon as he reached the spiritual level. Even the head of the Zhu family was only on par with him. After so many years of suffering, their Ye family could finally hold their heads high.
Ye Congyun's eyes sparkled with tears, and his gaze towards Mu Hanyan was filled with gratitude. If it weren't for Mu Hanyan, how could he be where he is today, and how could the Ye family have such a proud day.
Finally stabilizing himself, Zhu Xiangchen's face turned ashen, his eyes filled with fear and dread. To others, he and Ye Congyun had been evenly matched, but he knew that in that previous blow, he had used all his might and had evenly attacked, while Ye Congyun had only reacted hastily. If the fight had continued, he would have been no match for Ye Congyun.
Is it just like that? If he hadn't made a move, forget it. After all, it was only a few servants who suffered. If it got out, people would say that Zhu Xiangchen was broad-minded and tolerant. But now he has already made a move. If he just starts well but ends badly, wouldn't it be clear that he is afraid of Ye Congyun? No one is stupid. Even if they don't see the clues now, they should understand what's going on when they go back and think about it.
No! We finally managed to crush the Ye family, so we couldn't give them any chance to turn things around. Zhu Xiangchen quickly gave up the idea.
But if he didn't give up, what else could he do? Actually, he wasn't the only expert in the Zhu family. However, the Supreme Elder had ascended to the position of Divine Blessing Priest and was currently in the Main Temple, obeying the orders of the Lord Divine Master. The other four elders were busy preparing for the Dao Conference in the Soul Forging Hall and were completely tied up. He had no one to turn to.
Looking at the family heads around him, Zhu Xiangchen suddenly had an idea.
"Ye Congyun, you are so audacious that you dare to commit violence in my Zhu family. If I use real means to hurt you, others will probably say that my Zhu family is bullying others!" Zhu Xiangchen sneered and pointed at the three old men in the crowd. "Master He, Master Qin, Master Xu, didn't you three say that you would submit to my Zhu family and serve me? If you capture Ye Congyun, you three will have a place as my guest officials!"
Hearing his words, everyone simultaneously turned their gaze towards the three elders in the crowd. The Zhu family was currently on the rise, with the Grand Elder becoming one of the Twelve Blessed Priests. Naturally, the status of a guest official within the Zhu family had risen rapidly. Assuming such a position, not only would the individual, but their entire family, enjoy endless benefits in the future.
Although Ye Congyun has demonstrated impressive strength, two fists are still no match for four hands. Faced with such huge benefits, the other family heads were somewhat envious of the three old men. How come such a good opportunity has only fallen to them? They have only been in the Zhu family for a few days.
However, there was no trace of smugness or envy on the faces of the three old men. Their faces were almost squeezed into bitter gourds. They looked at each other, without any signs of fighting.
"Master He, do you think lowly of the guest position of my Zhu family?" Zhu Xiangchen said unhappily.
"Master Zhu, it's not that we look down on the guest position of the Zhu family, but that person, that person is Mu Hanyan." Under Zhu Xiangchen's stare, Master He gritted his teeth and pointed at Mu Hanyan and said, while the other two masters' eyes flickered, and occasionally there was a hint of innocence and flattery in the glances they cast at Mu Hanyan.
These three were He Chengye, Qin Zhihe, and Xu Shengrong, the three who had fled Mo Xingshan after being shocked by Mu Hanyan. They had previously resisted pressure and refused to submit to the Zhu family because they had heard about Kong Xingfan. They were confident that if they could obtain Kong Xingfan's relics, they would soar to fame. How could they willingly become vassals of the Zhu family?
But after their defeat at the hands of Mu Hanyan, they knew Kong Xingfan's relics were useless, so they fled to the Zhu family for help. Who knew they'd be joined by Mu Hanyan right after they arrived? The most amusing part was that Zhu Xiangchen actually asked them to attack Ye Congyun. He actually looked up to them, knowing that the three of them were far more powerful than the other clan heads. Otherwise, they wouldn't have been able to hold out against the Zhu family's pressure for so many years without surrendering.
But the question is, with Mu Hanyan around, do they dare to take action? He Chengye and Xu Shengrong were luckier and didn't suffer much, but Qin Zhihe was tortured by her pet and was covered in wounds. He was already scared to death. A few nights ago, he had a nightmare and almost wet his pants. At his age, he felt ashamed to talk about it.
Anyway, let alone the benefits Zhu Xiangchen offered, even if the Jade Emperor asked them to do so, they would never take action.
"Mu Hanyan, the Mu Hanyan who seriously injured Du Tiancheng, Guan Qingyun, and Dou Changping!" As soon as these words came out, exclamations were heard all around.
Things related to the Dou family spread quickly and could not be concealed. In just a few days, the news that Mu Hanyan severely injured Dou Changping and destroyed his cultivation had already reached Chiyue City.
"Master He, you haven't made a mistake, have you? Is she really Mu Hanyan?" a family head asked doubtfully.
They were all familiar with Mu Hanyan's name, but in their imaginations, Mu Hanyan had injured several of Dou Nanshan's closest disciples and completely ignored him. Either she was too powerful and confident she could challenge Dou Nanshan, or she was just a young, inexperienced person who was not afraid of tigers. To put it bluntly, she was just a fool. Judging from the rumors about Mu Hanyan's youth and background, the former was obviously unlikely, so it must be the latter.
Therefore, in their imagination, Mu Hanyan must be fat and chubby, a tomboy among tomboys, and a little bit stupid. However, the girl in front of them had a beautiful face, a graceful figure, clear eyes and compelling spirit. No matter how you looked at her, she didn't look like that kind of stupid and naive tomboy.
"Nonsense, we ate such a big one..." Qin Zhihe said angrily before He Chengye could say anything. But he felt embarrassed and stopped talking.
Although the words were not finished, the meaning was clear. Everyone was not stupid and immediately realized what was going on. No wonder the three of them did not dare to take action. It turned out that they had suffered at the hands of Mu Hanyan.
Everyone turned their eyes to Zhu Xiangchen, wondering how he would deal with the situation.
"So you are Chief Priest Mu. I've heard of your name for a long time. I hope Chief Priest Mu will not interfere in the feud between my Zhu family and the Ye family." Zhu Xiangchen had of course also heard of Mu Hanyan's name, and thought to himself that it was bad luck.
If it was just Ye Congyun, even if He Chengye and his men couldn't take him down, the worst that could happen was they would risk their reputation and force other families to join in the fight, but they would never give the Ye family a chance to turn things around. However, when they met Mu Hanyan, who even dared to cripple one Dou family member after another, not to mention the other family heads, even Zhu Xiangchen didn't dare to take action.
