The Mu Residence's Guard moved, excluding Muyun, the old Master Mu, and Xiao Yifei, the remaining seventeen people quickly ran around the three of them, forming what seemed like an array.

Xiao Yifei looked at the positioning of the guards around him, sorted by the Five Elements, yin and yang interconnect, capable of attacking or defending.

"This is... the Five Elements Eight Diagram Formation!" Xiao Yifei exclaimed in his heart. Indeed, the Mu Residence has deep foundations, able to utilize such powerful and intricate formations.

The opponents moved as well. Upon seeing the swift actions of the Mu Residence guards, the leader of the opponent's side, whose position was unknown, ordered action. As the Mu Residence's formation was complete, a portion of their group charged directly at the foremost person of the Mu array.

In a flash, that person had already reached the forefront of the array, following closely behind was a shadow, fists crashing ahead like a bamboo splitting, aimed directly at the face of the Mu Residence guard.

In the next moment, the mocking expression on the attacker's face froze, his eyes full of astonishment and puzzlement, as the guard standing at the forefront of the Mu formation transformed his fist, directly blocking the powerful punch.

The battles at the forefront of the Five Elements Eight Diagram Formation's five directions were almost the same. Seeing this situation, Xiao Yifei couldn't help but smirk, "Ha, with the Green-eyed Silver-tailed Needle's help, their strength is greatly enhanced, how could you easily defeat them?"

Following the attack, the person transitioned from fists to legs, attacking the Mu Residence guard from another direction, but all were blocked one by one. Seeing this, additional attackers came forward to join the battle.

Even when three to four people attacked simultaneously at one Mu guard, they were still blocked. Every move seemed to have been anticipated by the Mu guard, and every attack was effortlessly deflected.

This astonishing spectacle left the attackers stunned, never had they been so embarrassed, several people besieging one yet unable to defeat them.

After a short while, the second person in the Five Elements Formation moved, followed by the third, and the forefront person seemed to receive a signal from his companions behind him, launching a powerful strike forcing several attackers to retreat a few steps, then seizing the chance to withdraw.

After retreating, those few attackers, unable to quickly recover and reengage, found another person launching an attack on them, with one or two attackers forcibly injured, coughing up blood.

The battle had almost reached a fever pitch, the Mu Residence Guard's Five Elements Formation held a clear advantage, attacking and defending interchangeably, each person's strength surpassing the enemy's, both in speed and power, the scattered attacks from the enemy evidently fell behind.

People kept falling, yet the Five Elements Formation remained intact and indestructible, despite their mad attacks, they were to no avail, they were going crazy, their leader angered, the attackers had never suffered such humiliation, neither had their leader, unable to break a small gap in the array despite having numerical superiority.

Receiving this great blow and stimulus, none other than him, could be seen. That person bellowed, his figure flashing, trying to approach the formation.

Seeing his self-assured powerful strike about to hit the person at the forefront, the next second, his expression turned to shock, incredulously watching the scene unfold before him.

Earlier, the Guard's leader saw the movement of the opponent when that person moved, he also moved, like the other Mu Residence guards, he received Xiao Yifei's Green-eyed Silver-tailed Needle's enhancement, holding a superior position among them, and now, with Xiao Yifei's enhancement, his strength was undeniable.

At the moment the opponent's leader struck, the Mu Residence Guard's leader also moved, possessing advantages in speed and power, he effortlessly stopped the opponent leader's attack on his own guard.

The Mu Residence guard leader intervened not out of fear of his guard being killed by the opponent's leader's heavy blow, but to prevent his guard from unexpectedly being sneak-attacked and severely injured.

If any person in the Five Elements Formation were injured, it would affect the integrity of the entire formation, directly diminishing its power, so the role of the Guard's leader was precisely this, checking each direction within the battle and assisting when any part is overwhelmed by the opponent, stabilizing the formation's power.

After deflecting the opponent leader's strike, the Guard leader seized the opportunity to counterattack, delivering a powerful kick to the opponent's chest, the opponent lost momentum and was defeated.

The Guard leader wisely refrained from pushing too hard, promptly returning to the formation, he wouldn't chase the opponent to the death, providing the opponent a chance to retaliate, driven by desperation, neither did their leader want this, as a desperate struggle might lead to mutual destruction.

The Mu Residence Guard's Five Elements Formation, with each member being crucial, especially the leader, who was especially critical, without him, numerous vulnerabilities would appear in the formation, which is something the Mu Residence Guard did not wish to see.

If the leader fell and their people steadily kept falling, how could they have confidence to defeat the opponent? Facing continuous losses, the opponent's morale rapidly waned, led to inevitable defeat.

Finally, the enemy leader issued a command, swiftly withdrawing his people from battle, swiftly extracting their wounded from the Mu formation, retreating towards their convoy behind Mu Residence.

This battle came quickly and dissipated just as fast, within moments they departed from Xiao Yifei and his group.

The Mu Residence was unable to identify which force these attackers belonged to, yet it could be surmised that it is not unrelated to that family. What the Mu Residence people including Xiao Yifei did not know was, after today, the Mu Residence's reputation amongst the major families would be deeply reinforced, with its profound foundations and formidable power.

A surprising benefit gained from Xiao Yifei's assistance to the Mu Residence, indeed, the Mu Residence people understood that their formidable Guard's strength was only temporary and not lasting. Xiao Yifei himself did not foreseee that this unexpected reward would elevate the Mu Residence's status rapidly from now on.

"We return to the residence!" The old Master Mu, seeing the battle results, finally felt relieved, and sighed softly, casting a grateful glance at Xiao Yifei.

Xiao Yifei smiled slightly, implying thanks were unnecessary, saying, "Old Master, Brother Muyun, let's go." The group headed towards the Mu Residence, leaving the place.

Upon returning to Mu Residence, the news of the Young Master's election as the leader spread throughout the residence, filling the entire mansion with excitement and joy, after all it was their Young Master who became the sou, them being a part of Mu Residence, how could they not be happy.

At this time, in a room within Mu Residence, two people were organizing their belongings, one of them said, "Boss, I've heard that the Young Master and they have returned, and became sou too." Saying so, he happily laughed twice.
