316 Mu Chen’s Unbending Will 3 (1/2)

All the disciples of the Qing Yun Clan knew that if they ended up in the Hidden Cloud Peak, that would also mean the end of their lives.

But the disciples of the Cloud Treading Peak reacted differently. They knew that only death awaited them if they were to go to the Hidden Cloud Peak, but in order to prevent Qin Yue from having an excuse to lay hands on Mu Chen, they chose to sacrifice themselves and protect Mu Chen!

It made one wonder just how highly revered Mu Chen was to his disciples that they were willing to disregard their own safety and giving up their own lives for him.

Jun Wu Xie observed all this without a word and her gaze turned to Mu Chen.

The disciples were willing to die for him, what would he do?

Mu Chen grabbed Rong Heng and the other disciple and pushed them behind him before saying to Hua Yao: ”I will not allow you to take a single disciple from the Cloud Treading Peak. If you insist, you will have to do it over my dead body! Please leave, Elder Ke. Go to Qin Yue if you please, or do whatever you please in the Qing Yun Clan, but I, Mu Chen will remain here, standing against you. I have said my piece, as long as I am still the Elder of the Cloud Treading Peak as the master of these disciples, nobody can force my disciples to do anything against their will!”

Mu Chen did not wait for Hua Yao to reply and just turned, pushing his disciples back. He had made his stand clear and his disciples are not to be preyed upon!

”I feel like I can grow to like Mu Chen, he's much better than those pompous hypocrites in the other peaks.” Qiao Chu watched Mu Chen leave with his disciples, giving him two thumbs up in his heart for his righteousness.

”That personality of Mu Chen would have gotten himself killed if I was the real Ke Cang Ju.” Hua Yao got rid of his sinister expression and reverted to his usual calm.

”Dragons have scales that go against the grain, and so do humans. Mu Chen puts up with all the oppression thrown at him but if someone presses the wrong buttons, he would not tolerate it anymore.” Jun Wu Xie was glad that Mu Chen had reacted in the way he did. If Mu Chen had acted just like the other Elders and allowed Hua Yao to bring their disciples away, she would not have considered working with him at all.

”This thing here, do I still hide it in the Cloud Treading Peak?” Qiao Chu asked, holding a little cloth bag in his hand.

Jun Wu Xie shook her head.

”We need to sit down and talk to Mu Chen. A real discussion.” Jun Wu Xie said.

”That is provided Mu Chen is still willing to see us. Seeing his reaction earlier, he looked like he was about to kill Brother Hua.” Qiao Chu did not think there was any chance of them sitting down and holding a civil conversation.
