"Let's go and take a look too." Mu Hanyan was still thinking about the peerless treasure related to the ancient mythical beast. Of course, she would not wait here foolishly, so she followed from a distance.
The few of them did not hide their whereabouts and followed openly.
"Brother Qu." A follower called out in a low voice.
"Hmm?" Qu Fengting gave him a dissatisfied look. This was too tactless. Didn't he see that he had just become the leader and was full of vigor? He didn't even know how to address him properly.
"Oh, Alliance Leader Qu, it seems that Mu Hanyan and the others are following us." The follower immediately realized his mistake and changed his words to call out to Alliance Leader.
"Why are they following us?" Qu Fengting frowned.
"Master Alliance Leader, how about I take a few people and teach them a lesson? Send them as far away as possible to die," the henchman said. Even though they were all filled with righteous indignation when they accused Mu Hanyan, they had actually done a lot of bullying themselves after following Qu Fengting, and they were not good people at all.
"Wait." Qu Fengting stopped him. Mu Hanyan's calm yet cold eyes yesterday had made him feel strangely nervous. He was also a little skeptical about Mu Feng's words and didn't want to cause any more trouble.
"Go and call the kid from the Yang family over. It seems like his name is... Yang Boqiao." Qu Fengting thought for a while and said.
"Greetings, Lord Alliance Leader." Soon, Yang Boqiao was brought forward and saluted respectfully.
"I remember you said yesterday that Mu Hanyan saved your third brother's life. Do you know what Mu Hanyan's strength is?" Qu Fengting asked.
"According to my third brother, he has the cultivation level of a tenth-rank great swordsman." Yang Bojiao did not hide anything and said honestly.
"What, impossible!" Qu Fengting was shocked and denied it flatly.
Although he guessed that Mu Hanyan's strength might not be as simple as Mu Feng said, and there might be something hidden, he didn't believe he could be so powerful. Putting aside his reputation as a playboy and a waste, just considering his age, he was a few years younger than himself. How could he have such strength?
"I also think it's impossible, but I've seen the corpse of the Earth-Splitting Crocodile. Its entire body was beaten into a sieve. Apart from the great swordsman's sword-transforming technique, I really can't think of any other possibility." Yang Boqiao said.
"Could it be that he really has such a high level of cultivation?" Qu Fengting took a deep breath and fell silent.
He didn't doubt Yang Boqiao's words. Whether for the sake of his family or his own life, he was certain Yang Boqiao wouldn't dare deceive him. He also knew the Earth-Splitting Crocodile's power. Nothing less than a great swordsman could break through its refined steel armor. This meant that Mu Hanyan was most likely a tenth-rank great swordsman.
"Who else knows about this?" Qu Fengting asked.
"No, we haven't mentioned it to anyone." Yang Boqiao said.
"That's good. You can go back. From now on, you must never mention this matter to anyone." Qu Fengting waved his hand and said.
The reason why he was able to gather these elite swordsmen and become the leader of the Tongxin Alliance with a little trick, making them obey his orders, was fundamentally due to his strength as a tenth-rank great swordsman. His family background was secondary.
If Mu Hanyan's strength were to be revealed, his prestige would definitely be affected. At the most critical juncture, it might even lead to disaster.
Fortunately, Mu Hanyan seemed to be intentionally concealing her strength, which was exactly what he wanted. As long as he didn't mention it and didn't provoke Mu Hanyan, she would help him keep his strength secret.
Once I get the rare treasure in the palace, it will be easy to kill him!
Humph! Don’t you like to hide your strength? Then hide it until you die! Qu Fengting’s mouth curled into a cruel sneer.
