This pattern is exactly the same as that seen on the mysterious assassin who tried to assassinate her when she was reborn, and the assassin who assassinated Yan Yuchu.
Mu Hanyan turned her head abruptly to look at Yue Ji, and under the corners of her clothes, some very inconspicuous stars embroidery were faintly exposed.
I understand, it turns out that the enemy hidden in the dark is the temple, a temple from another continent.
But, why didn't they go thousands of miles away, risking many dangers to cross the sealed forbidden area, to assassinate themselves and Yan Yuchu? As far as she and Yan Yuchu's strength are concerned, strictly speaking, they are definitely not real masters in the Holy Court Continent. Is it worth paying such a high price
Could it be because of his own blood? This is also the most reasonable explanation that Mu Hanyan can think of.
"Have you thought about it?" My father's gentle voice suddenly came from beside my ear.
"Father." Mu Hanyan raised his head and saw his father's deep gaze.
After the catastrophe, seeing his father's kind face again, Mu Hanyan couldn't help his eyes moisten, and no matter how many questions he had in his heart, he was not in a hurry to ask them.
"I've met Lord City Master." Both Zirong and Jiang Yuzhe bowed in salute.
"There's no need to be too polite, let's talk after leaving here." Mu Rui'an waved his hand and said.
After finishing speaking, Mu Rui'an slammed out his palm, shaking the black-clothed swordsman into powder, leaving no bones left.
"This is something from your temple. You should keep it carefully. Unless it is absolutely necessary, don't use it lightly. Or, find a way to refine it and erase the original mark before using it." Then, Mu Rui'an took the handle Pick up the magic-breaking gun, which is comparable to an artifact, and give it to Huayue.
"En." Huayue took the Demon-Breaking Spear. His eyes were full of doubts, but now was obviously not the time to ask.
"Father, when did you come?" Mu Hanyan asked.
"The Lord City Lord has been here for quite a while." Mu Cheng poked his head out and answered for Mu Rui'an.
"You advanced?" Mu Hanyan looked at Mu Cheng and said in surprise.
Not only was she promoted to swordsman, but Mu Cheng also reached the eighth rank of swordsman.
"His strength has already reached the bottleneck of breakthrough, but there is only one missing opportunity. Just now, the power of heaven and earth here is chaotic and violent. Although it is a bit dangerous, it can also stimulate the potential of the body to the maximum. It happens to be a good opportunity to break through the bottleneck." Mu Rui'an Said lightly.
"It's also thanks to the city lord's help." Mu Cheng said gratefully.
Just now, the collision between the two worlds and the earth can be said to be mighty, although it brought him an opportunity to break through, but if there is no one to help protect the law, it is impossible for him to break through, and it is more likely to be seriously injured.
Thinking about the hatred and rejection of Mu Rui'an's family by his grandfather, the third elder and others, and thinking about Mu Rui'an's previous sense of helping each other, Mu Cheng felt ashamed even more grateful.
"After being the same as the Mu family, this is a matter of my kind." Mu Rui'an waved his hand and said.
Hearing his words, Mu Cheng admired his broad mind even more.
Afterwards, several people followed Mu Rui'an back to Black Rock City. When passing through that small mountain village, I saw dozens of guards from the Mu Mansion hurrying over to arrange funeral arrangements for those innocent people who suffered.
Huayue has lived here for more than ten years, and seeing these villagers suffer for herself, she feels very guilty. Seeing that Mu Rui'an sent someone to arrange funeral arrangements for them, he was also very grateful to him.
Not long after, they returned to Black Rock City and took the healing elixir. Huayue and the others looked much better.
"My lord, can you tell me what's going on?" Huayue asked Mu Rui'an impatiently, without going back to her room to heal her injuries.
From Yueji's mouth, he learned a little bit about his life experience, knowing that his parents and Yueji betrayed the temple, and came to the Holy Court Continent from the distant God's Continent through the sealed forbidden area, but was seriously injured and attacked. Died unexpectedly, Yue Ji disguised herself and lived in seclusion in a remote village and raised him. In the end, she still failed to escape the pursuit of the temple.
But he knew nothing about the temple and the land of gods. Don't talk about him, even Mu Hanyan, who was reborn, has never heard of the origin of the God's Continent and the Temple.
So not only Huayue, Mu Hanyan and Zirong also looked at Mu Rui'an curiously.
"You're asking about the Continent of God and the Temple of God, right?" Mu Rui'an pondered for a moment and asked, "Have you heard of the ancient war?"
It was Huayue and Zirong who answered him with blank faces.
"I've heard a little bit..." Mu Hanyan organized his thoughts and recounted the legend he heard from Han Jinglun in detail.
Huayue and the others were secretly surprised. They didn't even know that there was such a reason in the Holy Court Continent.
"Well, what you said is generally good, but there are still some things that you don't know completely." Mu Rui'an didn't expect that Mu Hanyan knew so much, and she was a little surprised, but thinking about her various encounters, and not even herself The too-clear secret of his life experience was relieved, and he continued, "The continent was broken up back then, and it was divided into countless fragments of varying sizes. Some of them gradually died out in the tens of thousands of years that followed, and some remained. Today, there are still surviving ancient tribes living there.
Among them, the most vast and the most complete power of heaven and earth is our Holy Court Continent and the Demon Continent, which is what they call the God Continent.
When the world was shattered, the surviving strong men realized that the incomplete power of the world would restrict the improvement of their cultivation base. When their strength reached a certain level, it would be difficult to make any progress. The only way was to go to another continent.
But at that time, the mainland was first divided, and the hatred was still there. Who would let the opponent's strongman come to his own territory to improve his strength, wouldn't that lead the wolf into the house? Therefore, all strong men who crossed the seal and reached the opponent's continent were ruthlessly killed by the opponent.
In order to achieve their goals, the powerhouses of the two sides once again formed an alliance to compete with each other. The Continent of God is the temple, and the Continent of the Holy Court is the Holy Court.
Hundreds of thousands of years have passed, maybe hundreds of thousands of years. The original strong fell one by one, and the strength of the later cultivators was not as good as the next generation. However, the Holy Court and the Temple have continued to this day, becoming the true power of the two continents. dominate. "
"Father, are you saying that the Holy Court is the real ruler of our Holy Court Continent?" Mu Hanyan always thought that the imperial power of the Holy Court Continent was supreme, but he didn't know that there were higher existences above the royal families of all countries. Mu Rui'an said in surprise.
"Yes, the Holy Court is illusory, ordinary people have never even heard of it, but for a wealthy family like the Mu family, as well as the royal families of various countries, it is not a big secret. It's just that the status of the Holy Court is too noble and noble. , and too mysterious and ethereal, even the royal families of various countries have a hard time getting close." Mu Rui'an nodded and said.
"Then, why did my father betray the temple and come to the Holy Land?" Huayue asked suspiciously. This was actually what he wanted to ask the most.
When he asked this question, he looked at Mu Hanyan suspiciously.
Zirong and Jiang Yuzhe also looked over at the same time, they all remembered what Yueji said before she died.
"It turned out to be like this, it turned out to be like this, I finally understand why the master has traveled thousands of miles, and would rather betray the temple and come to the Holy Land, I finally understand."
"From now on, just follow him, never betray, forever."
"It's not my words, it's your father's wish. Remember, this is your father's wish, my lord... He finally fulfilled his wish."
Although she was dying, the meaning of Yueji's words was very clear. The reason why Huayue's father defected from the temple and traveled thousands of miles to the Holy Court Continent was for Mu Hanyan.
