"Alright, you can go up the mountain to see the chief, but only five people can enter.”
a Mountain Bandit said.
The Zhou family was helpless. They could only listen obediently in other people's territory.
"Zhou Feng, the three of you will go up with us. As for Xiao Wen, you will wait at the foot of the mountain. If anything happens, you will leave immediately.”
In the end, Zhou Mu chose the people who would go up. Tang Jie was naturally among them. Then, Zhou Mu instructed Zhou Xiaowen to leave immediately if anything happened to them.
"Dad, Senior Brother Tang…you must be careful!”
Zhou Xiaowen nodded reluctantly and instructed with reddened eyes.
In her eyes, this Black Wolf Mountain Village was no different from a dragon's pool and a tiger's den. If an accident happened, Zhou Mu, Tang Jie, and the others could forget about leaving alive.
"Let's go!"
A mountain bandit led Tang Jie and the other five people to the top of Black Wolf Mountain. Soon, they arrived at the top of the mountain. Tang Jie could see a village entrenched on the top of the mountain from afar.
Black Wolf Mountain Village was surrounded by a high wall made of wood and stone. On the high wall were fully-armed guards. Each of them had a fierce aura.
"Is it someone from the Zhou family? Are you here to negotiate?"
"These guys are really slow. Half a month and they came on time?”
These Mountain Bandits didn't bother to hide the malicious intent on their faces as they discussed in low voices.
Zhou Feng and the other Zhou Clan disciples gulped. Even though they were elites of the Zhou Clan and martial artists in the Body Refinement Realm, they still felt like they had entered a wolf's den.
At this moment, there were three people sitting in a hall in Black Wolf Mountain Village. These three people had different appearances, but their auras were extremely fierce.
These three people were the three leaders of Black Wolf Mountain Village. They were Pre-Sky Realm martial artists. Their fierce reputation made the people in the nearby area change their expressions when they heard them. They were afraid of encountering them.
"The Zhou family is here. It's time to settle some grudges!”
Among the three of them, a wild man who was nearly two meters tall and emitted a wolf-like aura said coldly. He was the leader of Black Wolf Mountain Village, Qin Lang. His fierce name resounded throughout Black Wolf Mountain Village.
At this moment, Qin Lang's lips were filled with coldness.
"Hmph hmph…It seems like Zhou Mu doesn't know that he has a grudge against us!”A feminine man's voice was cold. He was the second head of Black Wolf Mountain Village, Ding Bu 'er.
"This Zhou Mu is really an idiot. He actually dared to come. Let them leave alive today.”Yi Shusheng, the third leader of the Black Wolf Mountain Village, licked his lips and looked ferocious.
Back then, the three of them had suffered quite a bit of humiliation in the Zhou family. They had always remembered it until now. Finally, it was time for revenge!
The three of them had a cold glint in their eyes, and their faces were all filled with malevolence. Those who dared to enter Black Wolf Mountain Village today could forget about leaving alive.
"You guys are really late. The three leaders have been waiting for a long time.”At the entrance of Black Wolf Mountain Village, a group of bandits came up to welcome them. A man with a scar on his face said.
"We were delayed by some matters. Please bring us to see the three Fort Masters.”Zhou Mugong cupped his hands.
Scarface didn't say anything. He looked at Tang Jie, or to be exact, the axe on his back. He said,"Hand over your weapon. No stranger has ever brought a weapon into our Black Wolf Mountain Village.”
Tang Jie stood with his hands behind his back. He glanced at Scarface and said indifferently,"Then I may be an exception. You are not worthy of making me hand over my weapon.”
As soon as he said this, Zhou Mu and the others were stunned. They repeatedly gave Tang Jie a look. This was Black Wolf Mountain Village. If they did not listen obediently, it was very likely that they would die here.
However, Tang Jie did not care about this. He knew that facing this group of Mountain Bandits, obediently obeying them would be a sign of weakness and would be looked down upon.
Moreover, as a martial artist, how could he easily hand over his weapon?
"You brat…are you looking for death?”Tang Jie's words undoubtedly angered Scarface, and anger appeared in his eyes.
However, a Mountain Bandit beside him pulled him back.""Forget it…it doesn't matter if they bring weapons or not. They won't be able to cause any trouble.”
" Come on..." Scarface heard this and thought that it was reasonable. He glared at Tang Jie fiercely and endured it.
This made Zhou Feng and the others heave a sigh of relief. At the same time, they secretly admired Tang Jie's courage.
Under the guidance of Scarface, the group arrived at a large hall in the center of Black Wolf Mountain stockade. Outside the hall, there were guards everywhere. It could be said that there was a sentry post every three steps and a sentry post every ten steps. The security was tight.
The palace was also heavily guarded. Tall and strong men stood on both sides of the palace, silent and oppressive.
At the end of the hall, there were three chairs. On them sat three men with cold eyes. Without a doubt, they were the three leaders of Black Wolf Mountain Village.
The burly Qin Lang rested his elbows on the back of the chair and looked down at Zhou Mu and the others leisurely.
"Master Zhou, you made us wait! I thought you weren't coming." Qin Lang slowly opened his mouth and said with a smile that was not a smile.
Tang Jie sized up Qin Lang and the other two. Their temples were bulging. It could be seen that they were Pre-Sky Realm warriors who had cultivated Genuine Qi. However, Tang Jie did not feel any threat from them. This meant that the strength of the three of them should be limited and could not pose any threat to him.
Hearing Qin Lang's words, Zhou Mu smiled apologetically and said,""My three Fort Masters, our Zhou Clan received the news and was afraid of losing our manners. We made some preparations before coming.”
At this point, Zhou Mugong cupped his hands." Three Fort Masters, I heard that Black Wolf Mountain Village has detained our Zhou family's goods and disciples. In order to compensate them, our Zhou family is willing to pay 50,000 taels of silver. Please be magnanimous and return the goods. Let go of those good-for-nothing people from our Zhou family."”
Zhou Mu had lowered his stance very much. The moment he came up, he expressed that he was willing to pay a high ransom to eliminate the disaster.
Fifty thousand taels of silver was not a small sum. With the Zhou Clan's current situation, it was not easy.
However, what Zhou Mu did not expect was Qin Lang to laugh."Zhou Family Head, do you really think that this matter can be settled by paying a little money? Have you forgotten how you humiliated us?”
Ding Bu 'er and Yi Shusheng also sneered at Zhou Mu.
Zhou Mu was a little stunned. He asked in confusion,""Three Fort Masters, this is the first time we've met, but we've never offended you!”
Hearing this, Qin Lang and the others did not seem to have met him for the first time. Moreover, there was a grudge between them. However, Zhou Mu did not know them.
