Chapter 1691: Chapter 1691: Whining Complaints
"Or perhaps, she has some talent and happened to obtain some Magic Artifact from Mu Yi’an?" Kang Qingyuan suddenly brightened up.
On the Shenda Continent, without having practiced the Secret Technique of the temple and received the temple’s blessing, one cannot condense the Heaven and Earth Power. However, if someone has some aptitude and a sufficient understanding of the Heaven and Earth Power, they can also use a Magic Artifact to cast Divine Arts. This was the only possibility that Kang Qingyuan could think of.
"Grandfather, the Mu Family dared to hurt me like this, clearly disregarding you. You must avenge me," Kang Zihe said with a mournful face.
"I understand. The Mu Family acted with such cruelty, I will not let them go easily. However, in a few days, the Feng City Temple will be selecting priests. If she indeed has that aptitude, she will definitely come to Tianfeng City. It’s too late to go now. I will deal with her properly once she arrives in Tianfeng City to avenge you.
Not only will I avenge you, but I will also crush her ambitions. She must not become a Temple Priest. The Sunrise Peak is ours for the taking," Kang Qingyuan said determinedly.
If this Mu Han Yan, as Kang Zihe mentioned, truly were an Innate Divine Priest, he might have some concerns. But thinking he had found the answer, he became reckless.
From ancient times, many have had the aptitude to become a priest, but due to the various restrictions of the temples, besides those with extraordinary talents, few common people could become priests. Although this time the temple is uncharacteristically broad in its recruitment of priests, adding one more or one less doesn’t make a difference. Given his status and position in Tianfeng City, dealing with an obscure descendant of the Mu Family was an easy task for him.
"By the way, Mu Yi’an claimed she was an Innate Divine Priest. Who else knows about this?" Kang Qingyuan asked.
"Just a few of them." Kang Zihe glanced at the guards who returned with him.
"You didn’t tell anyone else, did you?" Kang Qingyuan asked.
"As soon as we returned, we immediately took the young master back to the mansion, we didn’t say anything to anyone." The guards said in unison.
"That’s good. An Innate Divine Priest appears only once in a thousand years, it couldn’t possibly happen to those lowly people of the Mu Family. The old fool from the Mu Family must have been scared of our Kang Family and is trying to boost his prestige. You mustn’t spread any rumors, otherwise, if we alert the other priests in the city, or the Master Priest, and they find that the rumor came from you, I won’t be able to protect you." Kang Qingyuan warned.
"Yes, we absolutely won’t say anything. Please, Family Head, rest assured." The guards’ faces turned white with fright.
Kang Zihe was hurt like this, and Kang Qingyuan did not blame them, for which they were all extremely grateful, not daring to disobey his words in the slightest.
...
After staying in the Mu Family Village for only a few days, Mu Han Yan left with Ye Yi’an and others towards Tianfeng City.
In these past few days, she had finally gained a general understanding of the Divine Continent. Besides the cultivation methods, the biggest difference between the Divine Continent and the Holy Court Continent was the absence of countries. The entire continent was ruled by the temple, where the Divine Lord resided, which is the Main Temple. Strangely, although everyone referred to it as the Main Temple, the Divine Lord himself called it the Divine Servant Palace, referring to himself as the Divine Servant, a meaning that was self-explanatory.
In short, whether a Divine Servant or the Divine Lord, he was the true master of the Divine Continent.
Beneath the Main Temple were the Bright Divine Hall, Ice Snow Divine Hall, Life God Temple, Earth Divine Hall, and Death God Temple, five divine temples that ruled the entire continent, with the location of the Main Temple being a mysterious existence, surprisingly similar to the Holy Court Continent.
The Feng City Temple they were heading to belonged to the eastern part of the continent and was under the jurisdiction of the Life God Temple.
Except for the cultivation method and the political system of the continent, other aspects of the Divine Continent were not too different from the Holy Court Continent. Alchemy, Array techniques, and other strange and mysterious arts existed the same way, but they were also under the temple’s control.
Knowing all this, Mu Han Yan was at ease. As long as she didn’t easily reveal her sword technique, she wouldn’t easily expose herself in daily interactions.
"Lady, shall we depart?" Mu Tu asked Mu Han Yan.
Although Mu Han Yan told them they could call her by her name, the concept of hierarchy was deeply ingrained in their hearts, and they wouldn’t dare to overstep, so they settled on calling her ’Lady’.
"Thank you, Uncle Mu Tu. Let’s set off." Mu Han Yan looked at the carriage and said to Mu Tu.
Although the Holy Continent didn’t have the saying ’one day as a teacher, a lifetime as a father’, the teacher-student etiquette was not taken lightly. Although she had only learned Martial Arts from Mu Tu for a few days, she held great respect for him.
"Lady, you need not be so polite to me. You are a great benefactor to our Mu Family." Mu Tu’s heart was filled with joy at being called ’Uncle’ by her, and his dark face turned a shade of reddish-brown, as he opened the carriage curtain.
The ’curtain’ was actually made of thick cowhide felt. The entire carriage, including the seemingly overweight Red Charcoal Cloud Smoke Beast pulling it, was covered with thick fur felts, in multiple layers.
As Mu Han Yan crawled into the carriage, she felt a bit suffocated.
"Why make the carriage like this?" Mu Han Yan complained inwardly.
The hoofbeats began, and as the Mu Family waved them off, the carriage left the village.
And soon, Mu Han Yan understood why the carriage was made this way and realized how terrifying the Heaven and Earth Power of the Divine Continent could be.
Once the carriage left the village, Mu Han Yan heard the roaring sound of a violent wind sweeping across the land, accompanied by the hissing sound of the thick cowhide felt as if a blunt instrument was swiftly sweeping across its surface.
Despite the multiple layers of cowhide felt, the fierce wind seeped through the gaps in the curtains, stinging her face with a fiery pain. Within that wind, Mu Han Yan clearly felt all kinds of different Heaven and Earth Powers – some were as hot as fire, some cold as ice, some sharp as blades, and others heavy as stones.
Although these Heaven and Earth Powers were not as chaotic as those on the North Abyss Misty Plain, they were clearer and more powerful. Without the thick layers of cowhide felt protecting the carriage, and without her having undergone several sessions of meridian clearing and marrow washing, with bones, meridians, and muscles far stronger than ordinary people, and still maintaining some of a Fifth Rank Swordsman’s cultivation, she might have coughed up blood under this direct assault of Heaven and Earth Power.
"So this is the Heaven and Earth Power of the Divine Continent, quite terrifying indeed," Ling Baobao said in surprise.
Outside, Mu Tu was driving the carriage while Ye Yi’an had already set up a soundproof barrier, so he spoke without worry. In fact, with the cold wind howling, Mu Tu had already wrapped himself up like a cocoon, and even without the soundproof barrier, he might not hear their conversation.
