In reality, the Flower Rain Temple's Punishment Priest was someone else, but she had chosen Wen Gaoren. It wasn't that she didn't trust him. After countless life-or-death crises, she was completely confident in his loyalty. She was simply worried that he might be wary of Zhao Xinghu's background, fearing trouble for both the Flower Rain Temple and herself, and therefore afraid to speak out for justice.
Wen Gaoren was different. Unable to identify with the character of the Ou Dechuan family, he refused to serve them his entire life, even when forced to become a family without relatives. His character was so unyielding that even Mu Hanyan sometimes secretly admired him.
Most importantly, although this old man had a straight-laced temperament, he was not pedantic and had a good ability to read people's expressions, as evidenced by his persistence in pestering him to become his disciple and ultimately achieving his wish. Wen Gaoren would definitely not mince words when it came to his dislike for Zhao Xinghu.
"He deserves death!" Wen Gaoren did not disappoint his master. When he heard her question, he blurted out the answer without even thinking.
Hearing the question and answer between the master and the disciple, Zhao Xinghu was stunned, his mouth wide open enough to fit two eggs. Then, as if he had heard the funniest joke in the world, he burst into laughter.
"Mu... Mu Hanyan, you actually want to convict me? Do you know who I am?" Zhao Xinghu laughed so hard he was out of breath, pointing at his nose. This was a complete joke. The person in front of him actually wanted to convict him. However, he was the only one who found it funny.
He is a priest of punishment, and a priest of punishment of the Temple of Life. He has always been the one to condemn others. When will it be the turn of the temples below to condemn him?
"By the way, I forgot his identity. As the punishment priest of the Temple of Life, how should he be punished for defiling the temple maid?" Mu Hanyan asked again without even looking at him.
"Knowing the law and breaking it is a more serious crime." Wen Gaoren said with a cold face.
But it was already a capital crime, and with the added punishment, he didn't know what to do. Was he supposed to whip the corpse? Considering his master's personality, it was a real possibility.
"Then give him a hundred lashes as a warning to others, and then execute him on the spot." Mu Hanyan glanced at Zhao Xinghu and said with a cold expression. Wen Gaoren had thought of this, but the order was wrong. Mu Hanyan had thought of flogging him before his death. It seemed that he was too harsh and too kind. The pain of being beaten after death was certainly different from that of being beaten before death.
"What!" When these words came out, not to mention Zhao Xinghu himself, even Sikong Qinglan and others were shocked.
Having been with Mu Hanyan for such a long time, they had some understanding of her character. From what she said, they knew that she would never compromise and would definitely teach Zhao Xinghu a severe lesson. But who would have thought that the lesson was not enough and she actually wanted to take Zhao Xinghu's life.
"Master Chief Priest..." An experienced and steady priest glanced at Mu Hanyan anxiously.
Mu Hanyan waved her hand and interrupted him directly.
Seeing the frosty look on her face, the priest was startled and dared not say anything more.
"Sir Zhao, do you want to surrender yourself or let me do it myself?" Mu Hanyan handed Ruan Zhi to An Xiaxin, and then took two steps towards Zhao Xinghu.
Originally, she had agreed with Zhuge Qiu that she would neither accept Zhao Xinghu's blackmail nor break up with him. She would just keep him for a few days and then let him go. Who would have thought that he would do such a dirty and vulgar thing on the first day.
Perhaps in the eyes of others, it is not worth making such a fuss for a mere maid of common origin, but Mu Hanyan, who was furious, would never think so.
In Huayu City, regardless of high or low, noble or humble, as long as they are her people, they will never tolerate anyone humiliating or offending them! Otherwise, they will definitely repay tooth for tooth, blood for blood.
