"For the next thousand years, our Mu family kept our promise and didn't exterminate all the descendants of the Zhao family. However, without the support of our family, how could those orphans and widows survive? Most of them died in war, disease, or poverty. Even those who left behind descendants had no memory of the Zhao family's past glory, and some even lost their own surnames.
When the first millennium arrived, our Mu family ancestors were as if they were facing a great enemy. On the one hand, they were on high alert, and on the other hand, they sent people to search everywhere for the whereabouts of the descendants of the Zhao family. In the end, they found nothing and it was just a false alarm.
Thousands of years later, with no descendants of the Zhao family appearing, the Mu family relaxed their vigilance, and even many of the Mu clan's descendants were unaware of this. "However, I never imagined that a branch of the Zhao family, hidden in Black Stone City, would actually seek us out. Even more surprising, they also possessed a Destiny Star Plate," Mu Ruian said with a wry smile.
"So that's how it is." Mu Hanyan only then realized that the Zhao family had such a background.
No wonder the Zhao family dared to attack the Mu lineage of Black Stone City, not worrying about retaliation from the Mu clan's main family. It turned out to be because they had the life and death order in hand. I really don't know what the Holy Court was thinking. They actually made such a life and death agreement. Isn't this going to make the Mu and Zhao families suffer from unrest for generations? Perhaps my father was right. Given the Holy Court's transcendent status, they simply don't take the Mu and Zhao families seriously. How could they care about their lives? As long as they don't stir up unrest in Anyun Country and don't affect the peace and tranquility of the entire continent, they don't bother to meddle.
As for Zhao Yuanji's Destiny Star Plate, Mu Hanyan didn't find it strange. Since he had been one of the two great families of Anyun nearly ten thousand years ago, alongside the Mu family, how could he not have some background? If Mu Tianlie could obtain the Destiny Star Plate, why couldn't they?
However, what secrets were contained in this destiny star disk, and what secrets were contained in himself? These were not questions that Mu Ruian could answer, so Mu Hanyan did not ask any more questions.
"Hanyan, the Zhao family ultimately perished because of you. Zhao Lingxian also died at your hands. Her resurrection must have been a fortuitous experience. You must be careful," Mu Ruian said. He still vividly remembered the hateful look in Miss Zhao Si's eyes as she passed away.
"Well, I will be careful, and you should be careful too. I'm afraid she will do something bad to the Mu family in Black Stone City." Mu Hanyan nodded and said solemnly.
Come to think of it, she was reborn from the dead, while Miss Zhao Si was resurrected from the dead. Could this be a coincidence? Mu Hanyan didn't think so. However, she had never been afraid of anything. Miss Zhao Si, if she could kill her once, she could kill her a second time. Just come!
"After all, I am a fifth-level swordsman, so I'm not afraid of her." Mu Ruian smiled faintly and said confidently.
Mu Hanyan smiled. Judging from the strength she had shown before, Miss Zhao Si was at most at the peak of the great swordsman and should not have reached the level of swordsman. It was just that her body movements were too bizarre and her defense was astonishingly strong. But at least in the short term, she would not pose any threat to Mu Ruian.
Mu Hanyan looked at Mu Cheng. As long as Miss Zhao Si was not dead, the others would be fine, but she was most worried about Mu Cheng.
"Brother Hanyan, don't worry. Miss Zhao Si is dead, and I have long given up on her. If I have the chance, I will kill her with my own hands." Mu Cheng said firmly, without any hesitation in his eyes.
The former Miss Zhao Si was just a memory left in his heart, or rather, it was just a false image that he once deeply loved. She was completely different from the real Miss Zhao Si.
Seeing Mu Cheng's determined look, Mu Hanyan was completely relieved.
