After a long time, the experts of the Mu Family Castle arrived at the Lone Peak Village. They looked at Chen Ying who was lying motionless on the ground and revealed worried expressions.
"Wuwuwu …" The wolf cub let out a series of hisses, flapping his wings, his eyes revealed a vicious light as he loyally guarded Chen Ying. No one would doubt that the wolf cub would attack if they dared to approach him!
"Little Wolf, you don't recognize me anymore? I even held you! " The little girl was very worried about Chen Ying's safety, but the wolf pup blocked her way. He forced out a smile and tried to get close to her.
However, the ominous glint in the wolf cub's eyes intensified. His tiny body arched and his hissing became more urgent. It seemed as if he could launch an attack at any moment!
"Xin Er, come back!" Seeing this, Mu Chen immediately stopped the little girl's actions and said enviously, "At this time, the wolf cub doesn't recognize you. If you go forward so recklessly, it's very likely that you'll hurt him. We'll just protect Xiao Chen from the start!"
Although the group of Mu Family Castle cultivators were worried, they couldn't get close. They could only surround him and protect him from afar.

In a short period of time, the news of a mysterious person barging into the Lone Peak Village alone spread far and wide as the girls that Chen Ying had rescued returned. The next morning, the spies from the surrounding villages came to investigate. When they arrived at the summit and saw the corpses that covered the ground, as well as the experts that surrounded the Mu Family Castle, it was already too late for them to retreat. Surrounded by the experts of the Mu Family Castle, they decided not to fight for their lives!
"Second brother, should we kill these people or not? If the news were to spread out, I'm afraid even the experts nearby would dare to come!" Right now, Xiao Chen's life and death is uncertain. If we encounter any danger again, I'm afraid we won't be able to protect him completely! " Mu Tian said with killing intent in his eyes.
Mu Chen was a little hesitant, but didn't immediately reply. He closed his eyes and thought back to Chen Ying's words from before. "Kill and release, only in the heart!"
"Let it go! They also followed orders and are not people who have committed heinous crimes! "
"But …" Mu Tian still wanted to say something.
"There's no 'but'! Even if it's Xiao Chen, he would not recklessly kill the innocent! If there is really a fierce battle, then it will also be a life, no one can be blamed! " A bright light appeared in Mu Chen's eyes, as if he'd comprehended something ….

When the news of the destruction of the Lone Peak Village was spread to their respective tribes, it caused a huge commotion. One by one, they brought their clan's experts to the Lone Peak Village in an attempt to get a share!
At the peak of the mountain, two groups of people stood facing each other.
"Mu Chen, your Mu Family Castle's appetite is too big. Could it be that you want to keep the Lone Peak Village's treasure to yourself?" One of the burly middle-aged men frowned and said.
"Wang Fu, which eye did you see my Mu Family Castle obtaining the Lone Peak Village's treasure? I'm sure you all know, with the strength of my Mu Family Castle, do you have the ability to destroy this Lone Peak Village? "Don't you think that after the expert last night destroyed the Lone Peak Village, he would leave us treasures?" Mu Chen said righteously.
The cultivator called Wang Fu spoke to the women behind him and said angrily, "You're lying! Last night, the person who barged into the Lone Peak Village alone was the young man who was lying on the ground, not knowing whether he was dead or alive! The treasure was not taken away at all! The Great Master's storage rings are still on his hands! "
Mu Chen seemed to be calm and collected as he chuckled, "These girls have been frightened. It's night time again. They must have recognized the wrong person!"
"What's the matter with the night? Last night, the moon shone brightly enough for them to see clearly! "
"Villa Owner Wang, why are you wasting your breath on him? If you don't move away, we will destroy the Mu Family Castle today!" The person in charge of the Liu Village was a small and gloomy middle-aged man. He also stood up and smiled sinisterly, "If we join hands, we could destroy the Mu Family Castle with our own hands. Why should we leave them to suffer from hatred in the future?"
"Patriarch Liu is right. We have so many people, but we don't believe that the young kittens and puppies in the Mu Family Castle can stop us!" The other person spoke without any hesitation, as if the people of the Mu Family Castle were fish on a chopping board, and their decision to live or die was up to them!
"Alright, then I'll listen to Brother Sun!" But let's put it bluntly, after we destroy the Mu Family Castle, we will split the treasure evenly, so we cannot rely on who is stronger! "
"Why? We should have gotten more points just because we are strong!" Another tall and sturdy man was unwilling to accept this, he angrily glared at the person who spoke, and started shouting.
"What are you doing? Even if we have to cause trouble, we have to eliminate the experts of the Mu Family Castle first! " Just then, Wang Fu who had some prestige stood out and shouted, "Life and death depends on wealth, only by daring to kill will we be able to increase the tribe's strength, kill these few people, then the Lone Peak Village will belong to you, and the treasure of the Mu Family Castle will be taken by you! Since the opportunity was right in front of them, what was everyone hesitating for? "Go on!"
His words were the trigger for the conflict. Dozens of Qi Condensation cultivators wielded weapons as they charged towards the experts of the Mu Family Castle.
Mu Chen became anxious and could not care about anything else. "Wait! Do you know why the strongest person, Zhao Zhuang, did not come? "
"When you die, go tell Hades!" However, this group of cultivators who had lost their minds due to greed no longer had the leisure to listen to his nagging. They displayed the moves that they were the most proud of in their lives, which were aimed straight at the vital parts of Mu Chen and his group. Multicolored true energy surged, and the sky was filled with sword beams that wreaked havoc.
At first, the group of people from the Mu Family Castle could barely defend themselves, but after a while, they gradually ran out of energy. Only Mu Chen, whose sword techniques were strange and tricky, and Mu Tian and the other two had relied on their treasures to block them.
The wolf cub tilted his head to look at this scene. Although he was intelligent, he did not know what the humans were thinking. He did not go forward to help and only watched curiously, not moving an inch away from Chen Ying.
One of them broke through the defense of the strong warriors in the Mu Family Castle, flew towards Chen Ying who was lying on the ground motionlessly, and laughed arrogantly: "The Lone Peak Village's treasure deposit is ours!"
The group of experts outside that were gathering to attack Mu Chen and the others all had joyous looks on their faces.
However, Mu Chen and the rest turned pale with fright. They didn't know the Little Wolf's combat strength. Previously, they didn't dare to approach Chenying. It was purely because the Little Wolf was too vicious and could not bear to clash with the Little Wolf!
Suddenly, the laughter stopped. The little wolf, who had been faithfully protecting Chen Ying, moved. It was as if a white light had brushed past the person who was approaching Chen Ying.
With just a single exchange, the previously excited cultivators instantly turned into corpses, falling heavily onto the ground with a dull thud!
Awoo …" "Since this group of people dared to attack Chen Ying, the wolf cub was infuriated. He raised his head and let out a long howl, which spread like thunder in all directions.
Hearing the sound of the whistle, everyone's eyes revealed an inexplicable sense of fear. They couldn't help but slump to the ground, including the people from the Mu Family Castle. There were no exceptions!
