Yu Tianyi promised solemnly, "Let me handle this matter. I will then explain everything to you."

Mu Chen swung the long sword in his hand around. He coldly answered back, "No!"

Yu Tianyi had an awkward expression on his face after being spoken to in this manner by Mu Chen.

Yue Mingze tilted his head to inspect Mu Chen, then he turned his gaze towards Yue Tuanyi, guessing the other's identity in his head. He then looked at Ji Qingyuan who didn't have much power fighting back against Mu Chen. Ji Qingyuan's power was almost equal to the power of Martial Uncle, so how could he just sit there taking a beating?

Gu Yunjue lifted his head up to inspect Yue Mingze. In his mind, Gu Yunjue understood that this oaf was a bit more sensitive than others. This was the little merit that he had as Sect Master.

Ji Qingyuan had a shocked expression on his face when he looked at the person who stood before him. He had a surprised and dreadful tone in his voice as he said, "Senior...."

Yu Tianyi raised his hand, indicating at him to be quiet. This was done to prevent his identity from being exposed.

At this moment, there were many people standing above Yanyang Palace. Since a devil cultivator had trespassed before and they were unable to find any traces of the cultivator, Lofty Cloudy Sect recently reinforced their defenses and took precautions to prevent the same incident from happening again. Since the protection spell over Yanyang Palace had shuddered, many people assumed that the devil cultivator had attacked Mu Chen once again and ran over quickly to help. In the end, they saw Mu Chen, whom they've always thought of as a calm person who didn't talk very much, holding a legendary murder weapon. They saw him hacking at a sword cultivator, without giving him the chance to fight back. Not only did he cruelly chop at the other's arm, he had an expression on his face that revealed how much he wanted to completely chop the other up. Everyone was shocked by the vicious attitude of Mu Chen.

Bai Xunrong was extremely shocked, "I have never noticed Martial Uncle throw such a tantrum before. Ever since he came out of seclusion, his attitude has changed a lot.

Liu Hanzhi quietly looked at Mu Chen. His eyebrows were knitted together.

Mo Jinyang noticed that strange expression on his face and smiled before asking, "Since Junior Brother knew Martial Uncle Mu at a young age, have you ever seen him throw such a huge tantrum?"

Liu Hanzhi shook his head and responded with a cold voice that was as sharp as the sword that he was holding, "I've only seen him act this way whenever he has something that he wants to protect."

Mo Jinyang asked with curiosity, "Martial Uncle never had something that he wanted to protect before?"

"It took a lot out of him to protect his own life. He did not have anything else to protect." Liu Hanzhi looked at Mu Chen down below, and dropped to appear in front of him. Mo Jinyang rubbed his chin and thought about the meaning behind these words. However, he was hit by Bai Xunrong's fist. She hit him so hard that the sound of a thump resounded from his chest."Junior Sister...."

Bai Xunrong glared ferociously at him, "There are things that you shouldn't ask about. Martial Uncle hates it when people ask things about his past in the secular world."

Mo Jinyang gripped his chest and weakly leaned onto Bai Xunrong's shoulder, "I was just curious. I won't ask anything anymore."

Bai Xunrong puffed her soft chest out and scoffed arrogantly, "You will die one day as a result of your curiosity."

Beneath them, Liu Hanzhi had already unsheathed his sword. The sound of a dragon's cry resounded through the sky. He would always follow Mu Chen, as if he was the same grim child he was a hundred years ago.
