Chapter 145: Protect

At least, among the people whom Mu Ting Ye knew, the person who could do it would only be Yu Shi Lan.

But even if he thought this way in his mind, Mu Ting Ye showed none of it on the surface and continued his practice. The spear moved at rapid speed and continued to hit the center of the coins.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

Mu Ting Yu saw his younger brother didn’t answer and he sighed.

“I know that you usually protect your seniors… but if the military really wants to pursue this matter, I hope you won’t get involved,” Mu Ting Yu said slowly.

Cling!

This time, Mu Ting Ye missed and the tip of the spear hit the coin. He stopped his practice and turned to look at his older brother, his expression remained impassive and indifferent, but Mu Ting Yu knew his younger brother is definitely angry.

Mu Ting Yu sighed in his heart.

“What if I want to get involved?” Mu Ting Ye asked back.

“Then assume that I said nothing.” Mu Ting Yu shook his head. He knew how stubborn Mu Ting Ye is. And even though the two brothers were not always on the same pages for everything, they would usually support each other in whatever they wanted to do.

Their parents’ way of education was also quite unique.

They would allow their children to pick their own path and only Mu Ting Yu was asked to continue the family’s line.

In their words: at least one of them had to continue the family’s heritage.

And Mu Ting Yu simply took on this job without hesitation because he did want to enter the military. He has been fascinated with various stories that his father told him when he was young, prompting him to become a soldier too.

His sister was also interested to be part of the military, but she didn’t have much talent in fighting, so she moved to the medical field.

But she’s still in the military.

Among the three of them, only Mu Ting Ye was the one who stayed far away from the military and didn’t seem to have any intention to get involved. He was also fascinated with the martial arts and become a powerful martial artist.

A very unique career selection if one had to say.

“Brother.” Mu Ting Ye frowned.

Based on his understanding of Mu Ting Yu, he knew that his older brother will not say these things to him for nothing.

And it was strange that Mu Ting Yu would not interfere.

In the past, his parent was so angry when he chose to side with his senior brother after an incident took place.

But from the moment they all decided to worship their master, they had agreed to protect each other.

Mu Ting Ye had no intention of explaining it to his older brother.

Because he knew that Mu Ting Yu would not understand.

“I just want you to make sure that the person you protected is truly worthy of it,” Mu Ting Yu said slowly.

Mu Ting Ye looked at his older brother and then said confidently, “Of course!”

While the people under his master were not the most righteous people around, Mu Ting Ye believed that they were not bad people. After all, they all have their own reasons to choose their current path as a martial artists.

From what he had seen so far, they were all people who would not provoke others unless they were being provoked.

And once someone stepped on their bottom line…

They had to be prepared for a fierce retaliation as none of them were willing to let others trampled on them.

“Ok.” Mu Ting Yu didn’t say anything more and turned around to leave. He didn’t want to disturb his younger brother’s practice.

Mu Ting Ye stood on his place, his lips pursed.

He could guess that it should be Yu Shi Lan who killed those people, but he didn’t feel surprised about it.

They all have blood in their hands.

His family should have guessed this more or less, but they never talked about it straight with him. Because they could see that he was different from his family members who were all part of the military and also extremely righteous.

When something happened, they would definitely work hard to protect the people.

Even if it meant to sacrifice themselves.

But Mu Ting Ye couldn’t do it.

His family understood that he had different thoughts from them, but they said nothing and let him be.

Perhaps, it was because they knew that he had made his mind.

Some teenagers could have their minds easily swayed by others as they didn’t have fixed worldview yet. But there were also people whose mind had been fixed and it was obvious that nothing other people said could make them change their minds even if they were still young.

Mu Ting Ye clearly belonged to the latter.

His family had also noticed this.

So aside from some scolding when Mu Ting Ye did something wrong and their attempt to let him be a ’good’ person, they still let him grow relatively freely.

’Tsk.’ Mu Ting Ye clicked his tongue and turned his eyes back to the row of coins in front of him.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

He resumed his practice again, determined to become as strong as possible. While Mu Ting Ye didn’t know the reason, but he could sense that he was becoming stronger faster than usual and this made him more intoxicated in his practice.

…

At this time, Yu Shi Lan didn’t know about the conversation between the two Mu Family’s brothers.

But even if she knew, she might not feel much.

Because for Yu Shi Lan, she was already used to be abandoned and ignored. Even if the military wanted to pursue her because of those cases, then she had nothing to say.

For her, she was basically just defending herself.

As for the fact that her opponent were the one who died… it’s simply because they were all too weak.

Yu Shi Lan didn’t care about their lives and death.

From the moment they decided to attack her, they were her enemies.
