191: You hurt me

Star Moon Elder and the others found a relatively safe place to set up camp.

They prepared to rest there.

Actually, by the time they left the camp of the Heavenly Tiger Family Head, it was already dark.

They really should have set up camp then.

However, camping near the other party might lead to misunderstandings.

No one would be able to sleep well.

Therefore, Star Moon Elder led everyone to travel through the night.

They only set up camp near dawn.

For safety, half the people slept while the other half kept watch.

The people on watch rotated, so everyone could get some rest.

Yang Yi and Yue Lingxin were responsible for the first half of the night.

Two others were responsible for the second half.

Yang Yi and Yue Lingxin kept watch separately.

If the two of them were together, some areas might be left unattended.

Therefore, they had to separate.

This made Yue Lingxin a little unhappy.

Yang Yi sat on a tree, swinging his legs, gazing into the distance.

He was in a pretty good mood.

Suddenly, he spotted several figures rapidly approaching on the path they had come from.

Yang Yi jumped down from the tree and immediately shouted, "Someone is coming!"

"Wake up quickly!"

Although there were people on watch, Star Moon Elder and the others did not dare to sleep too soundly.

At Yang Yi's cry, everyone got up immediately.

They hadn't taken off their clothes while sleeping.

In such a dangerous place, being able to sleep at all was good enough.

Wanting to take off clothes was equivalent to courting death.

The group gathered around Yang Yi and asked him about the situation.

Yang Yi said, "I saw several people running towards us from the tree."

"Is that so?" Star Moon Elder said, leaping onto the tree to peer into the distance.

Sure enough, several people were running towards them, and they would be arriving immediately.

Star Moon Elder jumped down and told everyone to prepare.

The group scattered; some climbed trees, some hid behind trees, some pretended to be sleeping in tents, and others hid elsewhere.

Yang Yi remained standing where he was, with no intention of hiding.

Before long, several people arrived in front of the camp, brimming with Aura.

One of them glared at Yang Yi, gnashing his teeth.

"Yang Yi, you guys are truly insidious."

"You said you wouldn't compete with us, but you secretly killed our men and snatched our items."

"Are you still going to pretend you didn't do anything now?"

These words left Yang Yi at a loss.

The people who came were the Heavenly Tiger Family Head and his men.

Moreover, these people were covered in wounds, clearly having been through a fight.

He looked at the Heavenly Tiger Family Head, then looked at himself, not in a hurry to defend himself at all.

"Nothing to say?" The Heavenly Tiger Family Head thought he was right.

Seeing Yang Yi silent, he was even more convinced of his own thoughts.

He glared fiercely at the people sleeping in the tents and shouted, "Are you all dead?"

"Why aren't you coming out?"

"Are you too ashamed to see us?"

"Are you guilty and afraid to come out?"

As the words fell, the people in the tents emerged.

Star Moon Elder came out.

At the same time, the people in the trees and those hiding behind trees also came out one after another, surrounding the Heavenly Tiger Family Head and his group.

There were only five people with the Heavenly Tiger Family Head, while Yang Yi and his group had twelve.

Who was strong and who was weak was obvious.

However, the Heavenly Tiger Family Head was not afraid at all, as if he had the moral high ground and was invincible.

Yang Yi thought this person was quite cute; people who could reason with you were basically not bad people.

It was the ones who wouldn't reason and just attacked that were scary.

Star Moon Elder straightened his clothes and deliberately yawned.

"Heavenly Tiger Family Head, you are not a fool. Can't you take a good look at us? Do you think we did this?"

"If not you, then who?" The Heavenly Tiger Family Head demanded.

Yue Lingxin walked to Yang Yi's side and spat, "Old man, we traveled so far just to avoid misunderstandings and set up camp here."

"I didn't expect you to still misunderstand. You are really stupid."

"Look at us, do we have any injuries? Are there any signs of a fight?"

"All twelve of us are here. If we had really done something wicked, there would be some traces left on us."

"Your Dragon Tiger Family people are not useless; you should have been able to injure us."

"Look at the twelve of us, is there anyone injured? Is there anyone with torn clothes?"

As she spoke, she glanced at the people around her.

Suddenly, she was slightly startled, discovering that one person's sleeve was torn.

It might have been accidentally scratched by a tree branch while passing through the forest.

She coughed awkwardly and pointed to the Disciple whose clothes were torn, saying, "Right, his clothes are torn. But look, was this cut by a weapon?"

"Also, you ran here from your camp, right? Have you estimated the time? How long does it take to get from there to here?"

"If we really went to snatch your things, would we have had enough time?"

Yue Lingxin's barrage of questions left the Heavenly Tiger Family Head and his men stunned.

Listening to her speak so fluently and logically, could it be that they really misunderstood?

But besides them, no one else knew.

He said what he thought; he was a very straightforward person, and indeed not very smart, but his character was good.

"Besides you, no one knew we found something on that small mountain peak."

Yue Lingxin rolled her eyes and said exasperatedly, "Do you think you hid it very well? Such a big mountain, can others not see it? Do I need to tell you that?"

"Besides, do you not know how many people have come into the Tian Yuan Secret Realm? Perhaps someone else was spying in the dark."

"Some things I don't need to say more, right? It might have been done by the enemies of your Heavenly Tiger Family."

"Anyway, it wasn't us."

The Heavenly Tiger Family Head's tone was not as arrogant and angry as before.

He felt a bit embarrassed, but remained tough in his speech.

"I don't care. If it wasn't you, then you help me find the person who did this. If you can't find them, then it was you."

Star Moon Elder smiled bitterly. The Heavenly Tiger Family Head was clinging to them.

He wanted to use their power to deal with potential enemies.

Everyone said the Heavenly Tiger Family Head was stupid and a fool, but he didn't seem as stupid as imagined; he even knew how to borrow a knife to kill.

Yue Lingxin immediately refused.

"No. What does it have to do with us? Think whatever you want. At worst, let's fight. We have so many people, are we afraid of your five?"

The Heavenly Tiger Family Head was in a dilemma, while Star Moon Elder had more thoughts.
