It would have been fine if he hadn't spoken today, but now that he has, it would be useless even if Mu Hanyan, not to mention him, even the Jade Emperor, came.
Thinking of this, the Fifth Prince felt relieved and quietly took a few steps back, not wanting to show up in public and tarnish his image as a compassionate and caring prince. Of course, this was just his self-satisfaction. In reality, his hypocritical character was even more despised than that of a true villain.
Looking at Mu Hanyan who was getting closer and closer, the old master Fang secretly groaned: My eldest son Mu, the reason why I didn't want to tell you about it was that I didn't want you to be involved in this mess. Why did you come here by yourself, and dare to talk to Nian Anyao in such a provocative tone, isn't this asking for trouble?
When Nian Anyao fought with the prince, he happened to be in the capital and saw it with his own eyes. Therefore, he understood Nian Anyao's tyranny better than others and was even more worried.
"Who are you?" Seeing Mu Hanyan's nonchalant attitude, who didn't take him seriously at all, Nian Anyao felt even angrier.
Since he had accepted the Fifth Prince's favor and served him, he could be considered the Fifth Prince's subordinate. The Fifth Prince had already revealed his identity, but Patriarch Fang had repeatedly evaded his request, leaving the Fifth Prince humiliated and Nian Anyao naturally embarrassed as well.
Originally, he thought that the Fifth Prince was too hypocritical and too concerned about face. Patriarch Fang recognized this point, so he dared to refuse. He thought that as long as Nian Anyao showed up, he would scare the other party into being at a loss and hand over the land deed obediently. However, he did not expect that the other party would not give him any face at all.
How could Nian Anyao, who was always proud and arrogant, tolerate this? He was furious and had not even had time to take any action when someone suddenly intervened, and it was a young boy who was still wet behind the ears.
Is it true that the waves of the Longyan River are constantly changing, and that the young people of today don't even take themselves, the Beast Taming Grandmaster, seriously? Well, although outsiders respect and fear Nian Anyao, they compare him to the former Beast Taming Sword Saint Xia Youchen and respectfully call him a generation of Beast Taming Master.
But in Nian Anyao's own opinion, this was clearly an underestimation of him. With his beast taming skills and the support of the Beast Spirit Pearl, he should be worthy of being called a master beast tamer.
In short, Grandmaster Nian was very angry. In addition to arrogance, there was also some anger that was difficult to conceal in his eyes when he looked at Mu Hanyan.
"Mu Hanyan." Mu Hanyan glanced at Nian Anyao and said lightly.
Nian Anyao's reputation was indeed considerable, but Mu Hanyan wasn't afraid of him. Wasn't he just a Beast Tamer? She had even met and fought against the Beast Tamer Sword Saint Xia Youchen, and he was still alive and well, wasn't he?
What's more, she was carrying a lucky beast on her body. Although, just like the little pig, it was still impossible to tell what kind of rare beast it was, it was a lucky beast after all, and was definitely much stronger than ordinary beasts. Therefore, he did not feel too much mystery about the so-called beast tamer.
Without this sense of mystery, there would naturally be no awe among ordinary people.
After all, he is just a powerful opponent and one that can make her cautious, but not enough to make her feel timid!
Never be arrogant when facing the weak, never be discouraged when facing the strong, never bow your head, never give up. This is the strong will that Mu Hanyan has tempered through hardships in her previous life, and it has not changed after her rebirth.
"Mu Hanyan, so you're the Mu Hanyan they call the capital's number one playboy! Seeing is believing, you're certainly quite courageous," Nian Anyao said sarcastically. He'd thought it was someone else, but it turned out to be the Mu family's playboy. Others were afraid of the Mu family, afraid of Mu Hanyan, but Nian Anyao wasn't.
"Mu Hanyan, so he is Mu Hanyan!" Nian Anyao was not afraid, but that didn't mean the others weren't either. When they heard that it was Mu Hanyan who was coming, the young masters of the Sword Guard Mansion all showed expressions of horror.
Although they were not in the capital and had not witnessed Mu Hanyan's dissolute deeds with their own eyes, they were not without ears and knew a lot about what happened in the capital.
Even the usually arrogant Mo Yanhong was repeatedly humiliated by him, being disciplined to the point of tears. Even second-generation heirs from the eight great families like He Qingwei and Song Zhe fled at the sight of him. Just how arrogant and dissolute must he be? Most terrifying of all, he not only bullied outsiders, but also his own brothers.
Should they learn from He Qingwei and the others and get out of here as soon as possible? Looking at Mu Hanyan and then at the Fifth Prince, they hesitated and subconsciously shrank back.
"Mu Hanyan, don't think that no one can deal with you just because you do evil things in the capital. You dare to be arrogant and even look down on me, Nian Anyao. I tell you, this is not the capital. There is no place for you to be arrogant! If you want to stand up for others, you'd better weigh your own weight first." Just when they were hesitating, they heard Nian Anyao say with a sneer.
The previous encounter with Patriarch Fang had already humiliated him. If he were to bow down to a junior like Mu Hanyan, would he, the Grandmaster, ever be able to see people again? Nian Anyao was determined to show Mu Hanyan some strength today and put a stop to his arrogance.
After hearing what Nian Anyao said, the young masters of the Sword Guard House secretly patted their foreheads: "Yeah, how could we have forgotten about this? This is Fangjia Village, not the capital."
When in the capital, no one dared to attack Mu Hanyan easily because of the bans from the major families and the royal family. He relied on his own cleverness and tricks to deal with Mo Yanhong and others.
But once outside the capital, those bans are no longer effective. Even if no one dares to bully Mu Hanyan, Mu Hanyan cannot bully others at will.
If it were anyone else, the strong would be respected, and whoever was stronger would have the final say. However, on one side were the young masters of the Sword Guard House, led by the Fifth Prince and Nian Anyao, and on the other side was the son of the head of the Mu family, one of the eight great families in the capital. A rash use of force was unjustifiable, and everything had to be governed by reason.
Even if their attempt to seize the Fang family's assets was a bit of a bully, Mu Hanyan was just meddling in other people's business. They hadn't provoked Mu Hanyan, and it was he who had insisted on interfering. If they both refused to back down and started fighting, they wouldn't be in the wrong.
After realizing this, they all felt relieved: it was just a fight, and it was Nian Anyao who was doing it anyway, so what was there to be afraid of?
The onlookers around also reacted and sighed inwardly.
Although Mu Hanyan had a bad reputation, knowing he was there to defend the Fang family, they couldn't help but feel a certain favorability towards him. However, judging by the current situation, Nian Anyao was clearly not prepared to give him this opportunity. The Fifth Prince was a sanctimonious and self-conscious person, afraid to overdo anything for fear of losing face for the royal family. Nian Anyao, however, had no such scruples.
