Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
…
Numerous figures of both men and women flashed through the sky and arrived before Duan Lingtian and Huang Daniu in a short moment, and they formed a human wall that protected them behind them.
These people were all disciples of the Wood Peak.
"This is …"
Duan Lingtian and Huang Daniu glanced at each other, and they saw the shock in each other's eyes.
At the same time that the actions of these Wood Peak disciples caused them to be shocked, warmth arose in their hearts.
These Wood Peak disciples were protecting them.
Presently, the group of Wood Peak disciples had protected Duan Lingtian and Huang Daniu behind them, and they looked at the Wood Peak Elder, He Gang, with vigilant expressions as if He Gang was a dreadful monster.
"Elder He, you can't touch them!"
"Elder He, if you want to kill them, then you have to pass through us first!"
…
The group of Wood Peak disciples were united as one, and their faces were filled with rage when facing He Gang.
"All of you … What're all of you doing?"
He Gang took a deep breath, and his face beneath his curly beard was filled with shock.
Never had he imagined that two young men that had just arrived at their Wood Peak and hadn't even been registered as official disciples would actually possess such a strong charisma.
Can someone tell me exactly what the fuck is going on?
"What're all of you doing?!"
Luo Chen stood by He Gang's side as he swept the group of Wood Peak disciples with a cold gaze, and then he said with a low voice, "Don't all of you forget that all of you are disciples of the Wood Peak … Now, my Master, an elder of the Wood Peak, wants to punish these two prospective Wood Peak disciples that willfully slaughtered the innocent, yet all of you dare interfere? Do all of you want to die? "
As he finished speaking, ghastly killing intent suffused Luo Chen's eyes, and it swept towards the group of Wood Peak disciples as if he wanted to use this to threaten them.
But unfortunately, the group of Wood Peak disciples seemed to have utterly not heard Luo Chen, and their gazes had always descended onto He Gang with gazes that were filled with vigilance.
It was as if they were deeply afraid that He Gang would make a move against Duan Lingtian and Huang Daniu once more.
For a time, the atmosphere at the scene became extremely heavy.
He Gang stood there in midair without moving in the slightest.
Even though he had the absolute certainty of killing Duan Lingtian and Huang Daniu even if a group of Wood Peak disciples interfered, he didn't do this.
Right now, he was filled with curiosity.
On what basis did Duan Lingtian and Huang Daniu make a group of Wood Peak disciples go to such an extent for them?
As the saying goes, whoever wins the people's hearts wins the world.
Even though Duan Lingtian and Zhang Shouyong hadn't officially become disciples of the Wood Peak, yet they'd obtained the support of everyone in the Wood Peak, and even he, an elder of the Wood Peak, felt ashamed of his inferiority.
"Duan Lingtian, Daniu … are you guys okay?"
An urgent voice approached from afar, and it was accompanied by a swift figure that flashed over to arrive before the crowd of Wood Peak disciples that had formed a human wall in a short moment.
"I'm fine."
At this moment, Duan Lingtian and Huang Daniu stepped out from behind the crowd and stood in front of the newcomer.
The person who had arrived was precisely Chen Wei!
At this moment, Chen Wei's expression was extremely unsightly. Before he came here, he'd already roughly found out about everything that happened before him from the Wood Peak disciples that went to look for him.
Never had he imagined that not long after he'd just returned to his residence and sat down cross-legged to cultivate, such a great incident would occur outside.
There was actually someone that wanted to kill Duan Lingtian and Huang Daniu, and they wanted to annihilate the future of their Wood Peak!
If it was in the past, Chen Wei would surely greet the Wood Peak's elder, He Gang, first after he made an appearance.
But he didn't do that now, and he instead bowed to the group of Wood Peak disciples and said with a serious expression, "Thank you, all of you are great! I believe that with all of you here, the future of our Wood Peak will surely be bright! "
"Senior Brother Chen Wei, you're too kind."
"Yeah, Senior Brother Chen Wei, this is something we ought to do."
"Senior Brother Chen Wei, you and Elder Ke are the great contributors of our Wood Peak!"
"What we've done is just some insignificant things."
…
The group of Wood Peak disciples replied successively.
"Thank you."
Meanwhile, Duan Lingtian and Huang Daniu bowed to the group of Wood Peak disciples as well.
Perhaps not a single person in the group of Wood Peak disciples before them possessed a strength that was stronger than them.
But everything these Wood Peak disciples had done earlier caused them to feel heartfelt gratitude.
When faced with Duan Lingtian and Huang Daniu's thanks, the group of Wood Peak disciples smiled with good intentions.
"Elder He!"
Chen Wei turned around to look at He Gang who stood in the distance, and his face sank. "I wonder how Duan Lingtian and Huang Daniu offended you? It actually made you want to kill them. "
Chen Wei's tone was filled with an interrogative tone.
"Chen Wei, who do you think you are? Are you even worthy of speaking like this to my Master? "
He Gang hadn't spoken when Luo Chen had already sneered with disdain.
"Luo …"
He Gang had already noticed that something was off, and he couldn't help but frown when he saw his disciples were still so rash, and he intended to stop them.
But he'd just opened his mouth when he was interrupted by a cold and indifferent voice that descended from the sky.
"If he's unworthy, then am I worthy?!"
The cold and indifferent voice descended and drew the gazes of everyone.
High above in the sky, two old men descended side by side.
But the expressions of these two old men were extremely unsightly at this moment. Especially the one armed old man that spoke earlier, his eyes even flickered with extreme icy coldness.
He was like a dormant venomous snake that would explode out and harm another at any moment!
"Elder … Elder Yang, you've returned?"
He Gang couldn't help but be stunned when he saw the one armed old man, as never had he imagined that this old man would return to the Wood Peak.
After all, since the old man's personal disciple was poached away by the Fire Peak's Master 10 years ago, the old man left the Five Element Sect in a fit of rage and headed to the Wood Peak's base in Settlement City.
He never imagined that after 10 years, the old man would actually return once more.
"Who're you?"
Luo Chen obviously didn't know the one armed old man, and he frowned as he asked with a low voice.
"Luo Chen, don't be rude! This is Elder Yang, the number two expert of our Wood Peak … Quickly apologize to Elder Yang! "
Cold sweat broke out on He Gang's forehead when he saw his disciple actually daring to offend the old man, and he hurriedly shouted out with a grim voice.
The number two expert of the Wood Peak?
Luo Chen's expression went completely grim as soon as He Gang spoke.
"He … He's Elder Yang Ling?"
Suddenly, Luo Chen's gaze had descended onto the severed arm of the one armed old man.
Subsequently, his body trembled for no reason, and he seemed to have recalled something terrifying.
Even though he'd only taken He Gang as his master eight years ago and had only arrived at the Wood Peak seven years ago, he'd heard of this old man from his Master on more than one occasion.
This old man was called Yang Ling, and he was the strongest existence beneath the Peak Master in the Wood Peak.
"Elder … Elder Yang."
Luo Chen couldn't help but shudder, and he lowered his head in panic as he bowed to Yang Ling. "I … I didn't know Elder Yang's identity earlier, I hope Elder Yang doesn't blame me."
"Hmph!"
Yang Ling grunted coldly, and he didn't seem to make any movement when a bang resounded out.
In the next moment, Luo Chen's entire body flew out like an arrow that left the bow, and he repeatedly spat out a few mouthfuls of blood on the way.
Luo Chen who was barely able to stop his figure in midair had an expression that was ghastly pale as he looked at Yang Ling with a terrified expression. "Elder Yang, I was wrong! I was really wrong! "
From the beginning until the end, he wasn't able to react to when the one armed old man before him made a move.
He knew that if the one armed old man wanted to kill him, then he wouldn't be able to live until the next breath.
"Elder Yang, why did you do this?"
When he saw Yang Ling still make a move against him after his disciple apologized to Yang Ling, He Gang was slightly unable to maintain his composure, and he asked with a low voice.
"Why?"
Yang Ling glanced indifferently at He Gang, and in the next moment, he vanished on the spot.
When he appeared once more, he was already at the spot He Gang was at earlier, whereas, He Gang was blasted flying to follow in Luo Chen's footsteps.
"Duan Lingtian, Huang Daniu … The Wood Peak will give both of you an explanation for what happened today!"
Ke Zheng who'd come over with Yang Ling spoke to Duan Lingtian and Huang Daniu with a solemn expression.
In the distance, He Gang's face was ghastly pale as he glared angrily at Yang Ling. "Yang Ling, don't think that I'm afraid of you just because you're the number two expert of the Wood Peak … If you don't give me an explanation for what happened today, then I'll look for the Peak Master to seek justice!"
"Peak Master?"
A wisp of a cold smile suffused the corners of Yang Ling's mouth when he heard He Gang. "If it wasn't me that was standing here now but the Peak Master … Do you think you and your disciple would suffer this little bit of punishment?"
"Hmm?"
Needless to say, Yang Ling's words had shocked He Gang.
Subsequently, He Gang's gaze descended onto Duan Lingtian and Huang Daniu, and he faintly realized that everything before him was related to these two young men.
Who exactly are these two young men?
Why would this group of Wood Peak disciples willingly protect them?
Why would Yang Ling and Ke Zheng stand up for them?
At this moment, besides bewilderment, there was only bewilderment in his heart.
"Chen Wei, as soon as we heard He Gang wanted to kill Duan Lingtian and Huang Daniu, we rushed over extremely hastily … What exactly is going on in this matter?"
Right when the atmosphere was slightly strange, Ke Zheng looked at Chen Wei and asked with a low voice.
Chen Wei took a deep breath and didn't conceal the slightest thing as he spoke about how he was obstructed by Luo Chen and Hong Xi when he brought Duan Lingtian and the others over today.
"Not only did Luo Chen and Hong Xi obstruct us, they even repeatedly humiliated Duan Lingtian and Huang Daniu with their words, and they called them trash … All of this is something that many Senior Brothers and Senior Sisters can bear witness to."
When he spoke up to here, Chen Wei glanced at the surroundings and looked at the crowd of Wood Peak disciples that were scattered in the surroundings.
"Exactly! I can bear witness that Luo Chen and Hong Xi did indeed humiliate Duan Lingtian and Huang Daniu like that at that time. "
"I can bear witness as well!"
"If it wasn't for them being overbearing, Duan Lingtian and Huang Daniu would surely not have made a move."
"Even a man made of clay has a temper, not to mention Duan Lingtian and Huang Daniu are people … If I was them, I wouldn't be able to endure being humiliated like that as well!"
…
All the Wood Peak disciples spoke out successively.
Martial artists were firm and unyielding as they stood in the heavens and the earth, and the might of the heavens and the earth was unable to press down on their backs.
They would rather die standing than live kneeling!
If they were still able to remain indifferent after being humiliated like that, then what was the point of cultivating their martial strength?
If they were unable to even protect themselves, then how could they protect their loved ones?
