This pattern was exactly the same as the one seen on the mysterious assassin who tried to assassinate her at the beginning of her rebirth, and the assassin who assassinated Yan Yuchu.
Mu Hanyan suddenly turned her head to look at Yue Ji. Under the corner of her clothes, a few very subtle star embroidery patterns were faintly visible.
I understand. It turns out that the enemy hidden in the dark is the temple, a temple from another continent.
But why would they travel thousands of miles, risking countless dangers to cross the sealed forbidden land, to assassinate her and Yan Yuchu? With her and Yan Yuchu's abilities, strictly speaking, they wouldn't even be considered true masters in the Holy Court Continent. Was it worth paying such a high price?
Could it be because of his bloodline? This was the most reasonable explanation Mu Hanyan could think of.
"Have you thought of it?" My father's gentle voice suddenly came to my ears.
"Father." Mu Hanyan raised her head and saw her father's deep gaze.
After surviving the disaster, Mu Hanyan couldn't help but feel her eyes moisten when she saw her father's kind face again. No matter how many questions she had in her mind, she was no longer in a hurry to ask them.
"Greetings, Lord City Lord." Zirong and Jiang Yuzhe both bowed.
"No need to be so polite, just leave here first." Mu Ruian waved his hand and said.
After saying that, Mu Ruian blasted out with a palm, shattering the black-clothed swordsman into pieces, leaving no trace of his body.
"This is something from your temple. You must keep it carefully and don't use it lightly unless it is absolutely necessary. Or, find a way to refine it first and erase the original mark before using it." Then, Mu Ruian picked up the Demon-Breaking Spear, which was comparable to a divine weapon, and handed it to Hua Yue.
"Yes." Hua Yue took the Demon-Breaking Spear. His eyes were filled with doubt, but now was clearly not the time to ask questions.
"Father, when did you come?" Mu Hanyan asked.
"The city lord has been here for quite some time." Mu Cheng stuck his head out and answered for Mu Ruian.
"You have advanced?" Mu Hanyan looked at Mu Cheng and said in surprise.
Not only was she promoted to swordsman, Mu Cheng also reached the eighth level of swordsman.
"His strength has already reached the bottleneck of breaking through, but he lacks an opportunity. Just now, the power of heaven and earth here was chaotic and violent. Although it is a bit dangerous, it can also stimulate the body's potential to the maximum. It is a good opportunity to break through the bottleneck." Mu Ruian said lightly.
"It's all thanks to the city lord for his help." Mu Cheng said gratefully.
The collision of the two lands of heaven and earth just now was extremely powerful. Although it brought him an opportunity to break through, if no one helped to protect him, he would not be able to break through at all. Instead, he would be more likely to be seriously injured.
Thinking about the hatred and rejection that his grandfather, the third elder and others had shown towards Mu Ruian's family, and then thinking about Mu Ruian's previous help, Mu Cheng felt grateful but also ashamed.
"As a descendant of the Mu family, this is my responsibility." Mu Ruian waved his hand and said.
After hearing his words, Mu Cheng admired his broad mind even more.
Afterwards, they followed Mu Ruian back to Black Stone City. As they passed the small mountain village, they saw dozens of Mu Mansion guards rushing over to arrange funeral arrangements for the innocent people who had suffered.
Hua Yue had lived here for over a decade, and seeing these villagers suffer for her, she felt incredibly guilty. Seeing Mu Ruian send someone to arrange their funeral, she was filled with gratitude.
Not long after, they returned to Black Stone City. After taking the healing pills, Hua Yue and the others looked much better.
"Lord City Lord, can you tell me what is going on?" Without bothering to go back to the room to heal her wounds, Hua Yue asked Mu Ruian impatiently.
From Yue Ji's mouth, he learned a little about his life experience. He knew that his parents, together with Yue Ji, betrayed the temple, and came to the Holy Court Continent from the distant Continent of God through the sealed forbidden land, but they were attacked and died after being seriously injured. Afterwards, Yue Ji disguised herself and lived in seclusion in a remote village, raising him to adulthood, but in the end, she still could not escape the hunt of the temple.
But he knew nothing about the Temple and the Continent of Gods. Not only him, but even Mu Hanyan, who had been reborn, had never heard of the origins of the Continent of Gods and the Temple.
So not only Hua Yue, but Mu Hanyan and Zirong also looked at Mu Ruian with curiosity.
"You're asking about the Continent of Gods and the Temple, right?" Mu Ruian pondered for a moment and asked, "Have you heard of that ancient war?"
The ones who answered him were Huayue, Zirong and the others who looked confused.
"I've heard a little bit about it..." Mu Hanyan sorted out her thoughts and recounted the legend she had heard from Han Jinglun in detail.
Hua Yue and the others were secretly surprised. They didn't know that the Holy Court Continent had such an origin.
"Well, what you said is generally correct, but there are still some things you don't know completely." Mu Ruian didn't expect Mu Hanyan to know so much, and was a little surprised. However, thinking about her various experiences and the secret of her life experience that even she herself didn't quite understand, he felt relieved and continued, "Back then, the continent broke apart and split into countless fragments of varying sizes. Some gradually disappeared over the next tens of thousands of years, while some survived. To this day, there are still surviving ancient tribes that thrive there.
Among them, the most vast and the most complete power of heaven and earth are our Holy Court Continent and the Demon Continent, which is what they call the Continent of God.
When the world was first shattered, the surviving warriors realized that the incomplete power of the world would restrict the improvement of their cultivation. When their strength reached a certain level, it would be difficult to make further progress. The only way was to go to another continent.
However, at that time, the continents had just been divided, and hatred was still lingering. Who would allow the other side's strongmen to come to their own territory to improve their strength? Wouldn't that be like inviting a wolf into the house? Therefore, any strongmen who crossed the seal and reached the other side's continent were ruthlessly eliminated by the other side.
