3667 Stay Behind

“Third Uncle, how can you talk like this?” One of the injured men with a pale face said, looking at his uncle like he was a stranger.

The middle-aged man glanced at him and said: “Chengjun, your injuries are quite severe! You should take care of yourself first! You should know that it is almost impossible to make it back if you’re injured in this place.”

“Third Uncle, you…” Mu Chengjun looked at him in astonishment.

“Am I not right? It would be fine if you don’t encounter danger. But if you encounter danger, who do you think will protect those of you who can’t walk?” He glanced at the people on the ground coldly and said: “That old thing took them to find our Patriarch, hmph! In my opinion, he took them to die!”

Looking at his Third Uncle who was like a stranger to him at that moment, Mu Chengjun’s eye’s flickered and he asked: “Third Uncle, it was you who pushed our Patriarch out wasn’t it?”

“What nonsense!” He glanced sharply and raised his sleeve. With a flick of his sleeve, the wind struck the man’s face until it had swelled up.

“Pfft!”

He was already injured, but now with this slap, a mouthful of blood spurted out and he fell down.

“Chengjun!”

“Chengjun!”

“Third Master! How can you attack Chengjun? He is your nephew!”

“Ha!” The middle-aged man glanced at them with cold eyes and said: “My nephew? Will my own nephew slander his uncle?” His eyes narrowed as he stared at them, then he looked into the night and glanced at the few people who were silent, standing nearby, and said: “They won’t come back. Do you plan to come with me or do you intend to stay behind?”

Upon hearing this, the seven eight people couldn’t help but look at each other, then one of them asked: “Third Master, what about Chengjun and the others?”

“Them? Ha! Just let them fend for themselves here! Let them wait for the old thing to come back and take them away!”

Those people couldn’t help but shudder when they heard those words. If they had any doubts before, they were now sure that the Third Master was the one who had pushed their Patriarch out.

When they thought of this, they couldn’t help but look at each other and hesitated for a moment. One of them said: “Third Master, I think we should stay behind and protect Chengjun and the others. They have no fighting power now, if we all leave, I’m afraid that it will be difficult for them to survive.”

“Yes Third Master, we have to stay.” Several others also spoke up.

“Hmph! Ignorant people! Fine, if you want to stay, then you can stay! I would like to see how you can all survive here by yourselves with your abilities!” He flicked his sleeves with some annoyance then stepped away in the opposite direction and disappeared into the night with a few passing glances.

After they watched him leave, everyone couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief. One of them hesitated, then said: “Do you think that it was really the Third Master that harmed our Patriarch?”

“His attitude is so different before and after, I think that it really is possible that he did it.” Another person said.

“Chengjun, Chengjun, how are you?” A man stepped forward quickly and helped Mu Chengjun up, who was lying on the ground.

“I’m fine.” He said with a pale face, beads of cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

“Do you think that the Third Elder and the others can find the Patriarch and Eldest Young Master?”

“I wonder if Patriarch and Eldest Young Master are alive.”

The few people that had stayed behind talked and remained vigilant to their surrounding movements, at the same time, hoping that the Third Elder and the others would return soon.

On the other side, the Third Elder had brought the other family members to search around, and they shouted: “Patriarch, Patriarch…”
