"Damn it!"

Mu Jinyu stopped in his tracks, turning around to glare angrily in the direction the voice came from!

He saw a stern-looking, skinny middle-aged man holding a frail little girl by the hand, letting her kick and struggle in the air, his eyes cold and cruelly fixed on Mu Jinyu.

Like he was staring at prey!

"Wang Ye!"

The Old Village Chief and Elder Ji saw this scene and stared angrily at the skinny middle-aged man, reprimanding him with fury.

"What are you doing!"

"What do you intend to do by capturing Little Yun!"

With a cold demeanor, Wang Ye was surrounded and protected by a dozen powerful villagers. Unfazed by the scoldings from the Old Village Chief and Elder Ji, he said indifferently, "Chief, you all have gone senile, allowing an outsider to humiliate our villagers and let him kill people and leave. What are you thinking? If others hear about it, they'd think Xiaolin Village is uninhabited! From today onwards, I will take charge of Xiaolin Village!"

"You?!"

"How dare you speak like that? If you want to avenge these people and protect our village's reputation, then you should have an open and honorable duel with Jinyu. What are you trying to achieve by capturing Little Yun as a threat?"

"Release Little Yun immediately, or I won't let you go today!"

The Old Village Chief and Elder Ji reprimanded him in a deep voice.

"Dad..."

Standing to the side, Wang Zhong shouted with a hint of panic.

He was already terrified tonight after witnessing Mu Jinyu's prowess, and now seeing his father capture Ji Xiaoyun, who was friendly with Mu Jinyu, to threaten him, he didn't feel joy or excitement thinking Mu Jinyu was doomed. Instead, he felt a sense of hopelessness and panic, like a great disaster was looming!

Wang Ye ignored his son's desperate cries. Hearing the Old Village Chief's words, he sneered, "It's your incompetence and inaction that forced me to this strategy, capturing Little Yun to prevent that boy from escaping our village!"

"Had you not protected him repeatedly, tonight's events wouldn't have escalated to this point!"

"If Elder Ji hadn't saved this ungrateful person, how could such a situation arise tonight, causing more than thirty villagers to die?"

"You elders are already senile; you're no longer fit to hold important positions. Stop talking nonsense!"

"Of course, if you really feel that what I'm doing embarrasses you, you can come and be a hostage for me, and I can release Little Yun!"

Wang Ye said, finally revealing a menacing smile.

"This..."

"You?!"

The Old Village Chief and Elder Ji were furious at Wang Ye's words, never expecting this guy to be so rebellious!

Wang Ye sneered, "What now? Can't do it? Then don't sanctimoniously scold me, get lost!"

"Fine, you release Little Yun, I'll be your hostage!"

The Old Village Chief's face changed several times before he finally spoke in a deep voice.

"Alright, come over then!" Wang Ye's expression didn't change, he said indifferently.

"Master..."

Seeing this, Mu Jinyu couldn't help but call out with some unease.

The Old Village Chief gave Mu Jinyu a reassuring look without speaking, then walked decisively towards Wang Ye with his cane!

Approaching, the villagers supporting Wang Ye eyed the Old Village Chief vigilantly and quietly made way for him to approach Wang Ye and replace Ji Xiaoyun as the hostage.

During this process, if the Old Village Chief made any sudden moves within the encirclement, they would quickly kill him with a thunderous strike!

As the Old Village Chief approached, Wang Ye pinched Ji Xiaoyun's neck with his fingers, ready to crush it if the Old Village Chief tried anything to rescue her!

Seeing Wang Ye's actions, the Old Village Chief didn't make any rash moves, stopping three feet in front of Wang Ye.

"I've come, now let Little Yun go!"

The Old Village Chief spoke in a deep voice, not making any sudden moves.

"Swish!"

Wang Ye, hearing this, had a strange look flash in his eyes. Then, grasping Ji Xiaoyun's neck with one hand, he lightly flicked his fingers with the other, immediately causing Vigorous Qi to surge and pierce into the Old Village Chief's acupoints in succession!

"Ugh!"

Immediately, the Old Village Chief grunted, his body's Qi-Blood stagnated, unable to circulate, his Cultivation was sealed, and with his old weakened body, he fell forward!

Wang Ye, gripping the Old Village Chief's neck with one hand, controlled him, then coldly looked at Mu Jinyu, saying, "Boy, aren't you coming over to die? Otherwise, I'll let them both die today!"

"You?"

"You aren't keeping your word!"

"Damn it, Wang Ye, you really deserve to die!"

Elder Ji and other Xiaolin Village elders were furious upon hearing Wang Ye's words and seeing that he had no intention of releasing Ji Xiaoyun.

Wang Ye smirked, uninterested in them, staring intently at Mu Jinyu, licking his dry lips, and said in a deep voice, "I'll give you ten seconds, either come over and die, or watch them die! Ten..."

"Nine!"

"Eight..."

Wang Ye loudly counted down, watching Mu Jinyu with eyes full of mockery and disdain, like an old cat that had caught a mouse.

Mu Jinyu's face was firm, allowing him to count down as he calmly said, "Go ahead and kill them; this kind of threat doesn't work on me. If you dare kill them, I'll wipe out your entire village today; none of you will live!"

"You..."

Hearing Mu Jinyu's cold threat, Wang Ye was astonished that Mu Jinyu dared to be so bold and forgot to continue counting down in surprise.

Mu Jinyu continued tauntingly shouting, "Kill them, go ahead, do you really think threatening me with their lives will work? Do you think I'm dumb enough to give my life for theirs?"

"If I replace them in death, they still die in the end. If I live, I can avenge them. If you can, kill them!"

Hearing Mu Jinyu's words, Wang Ye and the villagers around him were astonished, never expecting that Mu Jinyu, who was so respectful to the Old Village Chief and Elder Ji moments ago, would suddenly change his tone.

Even Elder Ji and others looked at Mu Jinyu in shock.

Mu Jinyu continued coldly, "Now, I'll give you two choices, either kill them quickly so I can destroy the village, or if you don't dare, release them and come to die yourself. I'll give you ten seconds to decide! Ten, nine, eight..."

"You?!"

Hearing Mu Jinyu's words and seeing him daring to threaten him in return, Wang Ye was furious!

He's someone who responds to softness, not hardness, and was about to crush the two in his grasp!

And at that moment...

The Old Village Chief, originally rendered unconscious by Wang Ye's Vigorous Qi impacting his acupoints, suddenly opened his eyes and struck Wang Ye's chest with a mighty palm!

Directly shattering his heart and veins with one strike!
