Ms. Diviner: The Prodigal Daughter's Return

Chapter 1520: Chapter 1520: The Elders Refuse to Back Me Up (Anniversary Extra)

”And you still have the nerve to talk? You were holding the array formation magical artifact I painstakingly refined, and still got cleaned up like this. You’ve completely thrown away the face of us Divine Peak Seven Elders!” Ao Fangchen scolded, hating iron for not becoming steel.

Facing Han Yutang, he was also somewhat helpless. Back then, seeing that his natural talent was decent and his mind fairly sharp, and that he was the descendant of his sworn big brother and fourth brother, he couldn’t bring himself to refuse and took him in as a disciple. Who would have thought this fellow had been utterly spoiled by his family. Though he had some talent, he had no drive whatsoever. Since childhood he’d been arrogant, overbearing, willful and unruly. Almost twenty years old now, yet his temperament was still like a child’s. There were times Ao Fangchen was so anxious he practically wanted to slap him to death and be done with it.

”How can you blame me for this? I clearly set up the array according to the method you taught me, Master. Who knew that Mu Hanyan would be that formidable? Not only did she easily break the Thousand Illusion Demon Suppression Array, she even tampered with it without us noticing and trapped me inside instead, and in the end even forced me to crawl through a dog hole.” Han Yutang said indignantly.

As he said this, he completely forgot that it was he himself who had dug that dog hole in advance, intending to humiliate the other party. If Mu Hanyan hadn’t happened to be well-versed in Array Formation Technique, the one crawling through the dog hole would have been the other side, not him. This was entirely his own doing.

”You still dare talk back!” Seeing him mumbling like that, Ao Fangchen couldn’t help getting angry again and glared at him fiercely.

”Everything I said is true. If you don’t believe me, ask him.” Han Yutang pointed at the follower standing slightly behind, who was too scared to come forward.

”Y-yes, yes, what Young Master said is all true. We don’t even know what Mu Hanyan did. The moment we entered the array, we were trapped and couldn’t break free. We were also driven into a panic by those countless Sword Lights. The most terrifying thing was that those Sword Lights kept coming endlessly. After we finally managed to cut them apart with great difficulty, they would immediately condense back into form, and each time their power was greater than before.” That follower was clearly very afraid of Ao Fangchen, but since Han Yutang had named him, he could only step forward and speak honestly.

”Oh? There’s something like that.” Ao Fangchen pondered slightly, then said, ”Give me those array formation magical artifacts and let me have a look.”

Han Yutang hurriedly took out the array formation magical artifacts and handed them to Ao Fangchen.

Ao Fangchen received the array formation magical artifacts and examined them carefully, remaining silent for a long time.

”Could it be that she actually comprehended the Heavenly Sword Seven Killings Array!” After quite a while, Ao Fangchen finally muttered to himself.

”What Heavenly Sword Seven Sword Formation?” Han Yutang asked curiously.

”From now on, don’t provoke Mu Hanyan again.” Ao Fangchen, however, did not answer his question. He only warned him in a deep voice.

”What? She injured me this badly. If I don’t avenge this...” Han Yutang was slightly stunned.

”I said, from now on, don’t provoke Mu Hanyan again.” Ao Fangchen cut him off before he could finish, repeating impatiently.

With that, he couldn’t be bothered to pay Han Yutang any more attention and turned to leave.

Others didn’t know the secrets of his Thousand Illusion Demon Suppressing Array, but he himself couldn’t have been clearer. This array came from an array fragment of an Ancient Relics, of the same lineage as Long Yan Academy’s Heavenly Sword Seven Killings Array, only with the Array Principle reversed. Back then, in order to comprehend the Thousand Illusion Demon Suppressing Array, he had gone to Long Yan Academy to study the Heavenly Sword Seven Killings Array. In the end, it was precisely thanks to his understanding of the Heavenly Sword Seven Killings Array that he was able to complete this Thousand Illusion Demon Suppressing Array.

However, the Heavenly Sword Seven Killings Array was severely damaged, to the point that even he couldn’t repair it. For anyone else, gaining even the slightest insight from it would already count as having pretty good aptitude.

Judging from what Han Yutang and his follower had said, Mu Hanyan had actually turned his Thousand Illusion Demon Suppressing Array into the Heavenly Sword Seven Killings Array with just a casual raise of her hand. This was certainly related to the array formation magical artifacts he had refined, but it also proved that Mu Hanyan had long since grasped the Heavenly Sword Seven Killings Array thoroughly. Otherwise, even with the help of his array formation magical artifacts, it would have been absolutely impossible to achieve this so easily.

At such an age, with such a level of talent, even Ao Fangchen was secretly shocked. Naturally, he would not allow Han Yutang to remain her enemy.

Unfortunately, he still underestimated Han Yutang’s arrogance and willfulness.

”I’m so mad, I’m so mad! Your disciple gets bullied this badly and as his Master you won’t even step in for him. He clearly doesn’t take me seriously at all. I’ve long known he looks down on me, and only took me as a disciple out of obligation!” As soon as Ao Fangchen left, Han Yutang flew into a rage.

”Young Master, why don’t we just let it go? Elder Ao already said we shouldn’t provoke Mu Hanyan again, so let’s not be her enemy anymore.” That follower said cautiously. Unlike Han Yutang, he didn’t have that kind of family background; how would he dare displease Ao Fangchen.

”What did you just say!” Han Yutang slapped him across the face with a sharp crack and said through gritted teeth, ”Since I was a child, I, Han Yutang, have never suffered such a big loss. She actually dared to make me crawl through a dog hole. If I don’t avenge this, how will I ever show my face again? What place will there be for me, Han Yutang, in this Holy Court?”

”But Elder Ao already said...” The follower wanted to persuade him again, but was immediately glared at viciously by Han Yutang. Rubbing his burning cheek, he hurriedly shut his mouth. After thinking for a moment, he added, ”And the Holy Master also regards these Descendants of Divine Guardian differently. If we make things too hard for them, I’m afraid it will displease the Holy Master.”

At these words, Han Yutang’s expression clearly paused. No matter how arrogant and overbearing he was, he would never dare disregard the Holy Master.

”Hmph, so what if the Holy Master does regard them differently? As long as I don’t openly make things difficult for her, what can the Holy Master do to me? Don’t forget, back then his life was saved by my grandfather and maternal grandfather.” A moment later, Han Yutang’s eyes turned, and he said with full confidence.

”Young Master, you mean...?” The follower looked at Mu Hanyan in confusion.

”You don’t need to ask too much about this. Just wait and watch Mu Hanyan suffer a setback.” Han Yutang said, then walked out.

”Isn’t that Elder Jin’s residence?” Looking in the direction Han Tangyu was heading, the follower’s heart stirred.

It was said that in the recent battle at Longyan Mountain against the Netherworld Beasts, it was thanks to Mu Hanyan’s early warning that several hundred Sword Saints of the Continent Countries escaped with their lives. When the Netherworld King unleashed the Netherworld Blood Veil, it was Mu Hanyan who shattered his Divine Artifact and personally rescued dozens of Sword Saints. Yet Elder Jin’s sworn brother had at first refused to believe Mu Hanyan’s words and was later killed under the Netherworld Blood Veil.

Given Elder Jin’s stubborn nature, he would most likely pin the blame on Mu Hanyan. Han Yutang going to see him now was naturally to join hands in making things difficult for Mu Hanyan.

Thinking of this, the follower frowned again. The sensation of that Sword Light exploding above his head earlier, the currents of electricity coursing through his entire body, surfaced once more in his mind. He couldn’t help but shudder all over, silently praying in his heart: Heaven, please let Han Yutang not make too much trouble this time. Don’t drag me down with him again. I haven’t lived enough yet...
