"You! Who are you? Why are you wearing a mask?" Huang Hu threw a question at Xiao Tian.
Despite hearing Qiao Luli's words, he still saw Xiao Tian as his enemy because Xiao Tian was wearing a mask.
He suspected Xiao Tian was a spy sent by Sanlow village because their villages had been fighting for thirty years.
"I'm Qing Feng." Xiao Tian used his fake identity.
Of course, Huang Hu and the others did not know who Qing Feng was because their village was far from the city, and none of them had a television.
"Take off your mask now!" Huang Hu forced Xiao Tian to take off his mask because he wanted to see Xiao Tian's face.
"I can't do that." Xiao Tian refused without thinking twice.
"Hu, why are you acting rudely like this? They were the ones who saved me." Qiao Luli did not like Huang Hu's behavior.
"Luli, we don't know if they are good people or not." Huang Hu wanted to avoid inviting unknown people to his village because it was dangerous.
"He is right, Luli. Maybe they are people sent by Sanlow village." One of the village guards uttered.
"Everyone, we are not from Sanlow village. I'm Xing Juzong from the Xing family. And he is my brother, Qing Feng." Xing Juzong hoped they knew about his family so that the misunderstanding could be resolved as soon as possible.
However, his hopes were shattered into pieces because none of them knew about the Xing family.
Tan Zemin paid attention to Xiao Tian and Xing Juzong carefully, trying to read their minds.
'Are they lying to us or not?'
He could not make a reckless decision because it could put everyone in danger.
"If you don't want to take off your mask, then I will do it by force." After saying that, Huang Hu rushed toward Xiao Tian, pointing his spear at his heart.
"Hu, stop!" Qiao Luli shouted.
Xiao Tian did not move from his position.
He stood calmly as if he knew nothing bad would happen to him.
'Mid-level master stage?'
He used the energy of heaven and earth to check Huang Hu's strength.
At the same time, an old man about fifty-eight years old saw them from afar. Actually, he saw everything from the beginning, but he did not stop Huang Hu.
The village guards paid attention to Huang Hu carefully. Huang Hu was the most talented young man in the younger generation, so they believed he could defeat Xiao Tian.
However, the reality was different from what they expected.
Xiao Tian could avoid Huang Hu's attack easily!
He moved to the left before finally grabbing Huang Hu's spear and kicking his mid-torso.
Bang!
Huang Hu lost his grip when Xiao Tian kicked him.
"My spear!" Huang Hu gritted his teeth when he saw Xiao Tian holding his black spear.
The village guards were startled.
'What?!'
They did not expect Xiao Tian to snatch Huang Hu's spear easily.
"This spear is not bad!" Xiao Tian played with Huang Hu's spear.
Even though he was not good with the spear, but he knew one or two spear tricks.
"Here, take back your spear." Xiao Tian threw the spear at Huang Hu.
Huang Hu was stunned.
'He gives back my spear?!'
Did he thank Xiao Tian for returning his spear?
No!
Instead, he attacked Xiao Tian again.
He still suspected that Xiao Tian was a spy, so he was not touched by Xiao Tian's actions.
"Leave my village, spy!" Huang Hu rushed toward Xiao Tian again.
However, when Huang Hu was close to Xiao Tian, a voice suddenly rang out. "Hu, stop!"
Huang Hu stopped and turned his head toward the source of the sound. Of course, he knew who told him to stop attacking Xiao Tian.
"Village head."
"Village head."
"Village head."
One by one, the village guards greeted the old man who was walking toward them.
Xiao Tian looked at the old man.
'Village head?'
He saw an old man with white hair and green eyes.
Even though he was already old, but his body was still full of vitality, like Xing Hanxian and Zhao Chen.
That old man was none other than Wu Lei, the village head.
Wu Lei stood in front of Xing Juzong and uttered, "You said you were from the Xing family, right? Who is Xing Hanxian to you?"
Xing Juzong was startled. "He is my grandpa. Elder, do you know my grandpa?"
"We fought enemies together several times in the past." Wu Lei responded. "Xing Hanxian is an upright man, so I will believe your words."
Xing Juzong let out a sigh of relief because the misunderstanding was finally resolved.
Wu Lei shifted his gaze from Xing Juzong to Xiao Tian. "Why are you wearing a mask?"
"Elder, I have a reason for wearing a mask. I hope you understand it." Xiao Tian also felt relieved because he did not want to continue a pointless fight.
"Elder, he is my brother. I assure you with my life that he is not from Sanlow village." Xing Juzong knew Wu Lei still did not believe Xiao Tian completely.
Wu Lei turned around and spoke, "Follow me. Let's talk in my house."
"Village head!" Huang Hu was against the idea of letting Xiao Tian and Xing Juzong enter their village.
Tan Zemin grabbed Huang Hu's right shoulder and shook his head. "Stop it. Village head has invited them, so we have to respect his decision."
Huang Hu looked at Xiao Tian and Xing Juzong. "Tch!"
They immediately headed to Wu Lei's house. On their way to his house, Xiao Tian and Xing Juzong saw many people practicing martial arts.
Even kids also practiced martial arts.
'Hmm? The kids are also practicing martial arts?'
They were stunned.
'Is this a martial arts village?'
That was the question that appeared in their minds.
There were two instructors teaching them martial arts. The blue-haired instructor was teaching the kids, while the black-haired instructor was teaching the adults.
When Wu Lei saw Xiao Tian and Xing Juzong, he immediately said, "You two already know what is going on in our village. We can meet our enemy anytime and anywhere, so we have to learn martial arts to protect ourselves."
Even though Solaris village only had three hundred people, but all of them were martial artists, including the women.
Except for the kids, the weakest among them was at the Master stage. All of the instructors and some of the adults were even at the Grandmaster stage.
At this moment, Xiao Tian was a little down. Even though the weakest among his underlings was at the Master stage, but only Mu Huo was at the Grandmaster stage.
Of course, he believed his underlings would not lose to them because they had many tools that could help them in the fight, like poison needles, smoke bombs, etc.
"I see you two are already at the Master stage too. Did you two practice martial arts since you were kids too?" Wu Lei asked curiously.
"I started practicing martial arts when I was ten." Xing Juzong gave an honest answer.
Wu Lei shifted his gaze from Xing Juzong to Xiao Tian. "What about you?"
"I started practicing martial arts four years ago." Xiao Tian gave an honest answer too.
Wu Lei and the others stopped walking. "What?!"
