Soon after, Wang Si chose his own Gu worm, and Tie Yunqing followed him back along the path, all the way up the passage inside the mountain, and returned to the entrance of Tieshan Cave in the valley.

Bending down again to pass through the mountain-guarding stone, Tie Yunqing's eyes suddenly narrowed. After staying in the dark environment inside the mountain for a long time, his eyes could not stand the stimulation of the outside sun and felt stinging.

"Master, what should we do now?" Wang Si, who was standing aside, bowed his head and asked respectfully.

Tie Yunqing's eyes gradually adapted to the stimulation of the outside sun, and ordered: "In front of outsiders, call me Tie Lord, not Master. Now we have to prepare defense and wait for my reinforcements to arrive."

Wang Si bowed his head obediently and said yes, extremely obedient.

At this moment, Tie Yunqing saw a group of mortals in ragged clothes sitting on the ground in the valley with embarrassed expressions. In addition, several tall mortals surrounded Wang San, and one of them even grabbed Wang San's collar with a ferocious expression.

Tie Yunqing was relieved immediately. The worst situation did not happen. The wolves did not rush down the mountain during his absence. Otherwise, Tie Yunqing would have to abandon the Wang family and run away alone.

Tie Yunqing led Wang San towards the crowd. When the mortals saw Tie Yunqing and Wang San coming, they immediately caused a commotion and then gathered together.

The big man who had surrounded Wang San immediately dispersed and quickly hid in the crowd, even covering his face with clothes.

When Wang San saw Tie Yunqing coming, he felt like he had seen his own father, and he felt infinitely aggrieved.

"Master Tie, I..."

Wang San was about to speak, but was interrupted by Tie Yunqing, who waved his hand and signaled him not to say anything.

Tie Yunqing first looked at the entrance of the valley. Only some of the bodies were piled up at the entrance of the valley, and only a small part of the guard wall was reassembled.

Frowning, Tie Yunqing glanced at the Wang family mortals sitting together, and said to Wang San without any emotion:

"Go, pull out the few people who just surrounded you!"

Tie Yunqing said as he handed Wang San two Gu worms, both of which he had just taken out from the storehouse, one copper skin Gu and one stone fist Gu.

Tie Yunqing had already refined the two Gu worms on the way, and now he was lending them to Wang San for use.

Tie Yunqing might not recognize the mortal men, but Wang San, who had been surrounded by them for a long time, accurately dragged five people out of the crowd.

Wang San activated the Gu worms, his whole body was covered with bronze skin, full of power, and his fists were covered with hard stones.

"Kill."

Tie Yunqing said these two words without any emotion.

The next moment, Wang San, who was full of anger, did not listen to the pleas for mercy from the few people who had just been dragged out, and smashed their heads one by one with his fists.

The crowd sitting together instantly burst into screams, chaos, crying, fear and other emotions.

I don't want to kill anyone either, but I need to obey, otherwise how can Wang Si manage these mortals, Tie Yunqing silently said in his heart.

"Next, I have to announce something."

"Wang Si Gu Master and I met the patriarch of your Wang family at the foot of Tieshan Mountain. When the patriarch was dying, he passed the position of the patriarch of your Wang family to Wang Si Gu Master behind me."

"From today on, Wang Si is the patriarch of your Wang family village!"

"Wang San, from today on, you are the patriarch of Wang family village."

Tie Yunqing's words were concise and to the point, and the mortals sitting around were confused. In fact, it didn't matter who was the patriarch. What mattered was that they could live a peaceful life.

Among all the people present, only Wang San had a huge wave in his heart and an unbelievable look in his eyes.

How could his younger brother become the patriarch of the family? Why could he only be the patriarch? It must be that his younger brother had just accompanied Mr. Tie down to the inside of the mine and won Mr. Tie's favor along the way.

Wang San was extremely regretful, wondering why he hadn't accompanied Tie Yunqing down there.

At this moment, Wang Si, who had been standing behind Tie Yunqing, took a few steps forward and said loudly according to what Tie Yunqing had told him before:

"My clansmen, our family has suffered a great disaster from the wolf tide, and our Wang family has suffered heavy casualties. I have decided to wait until the wolf tide crisis is over, and then select those with Gu Master qualifications from among you, give them the surname Wang, and train them to become family Gu Masters."

As soon as these words came out, the hundreds of Wang family mortals sitting on the ground were instantly shocked, with longing expressions on their faces, and the original united momentum collapsed instantly.

When it comes to the opportunity to become a Gu Master, at this moment, everyone is a competitor to each other.

In the Gu Master Village, Gu Masters are basically inherited from a fixed bloodline. For mortals who are attached to the village, unless there is a major change in the village, even if they have qualifications, the family will not open up for you.

This ruling model based on bloodline has maintained the dominant position of family Gu Masters to a certain extent, and mortals are the flocks of Gu Masters.

Seeing that the situation had reached his expectations, Tie Yunqing asked Wang Si to immediately order some people to go to the family's warehouse where food was usually stored for Gu Masters, to move food, vegetables, and meat, so that everyone could eat their fill.

With the hope of becoming a Gu Master and being able to eat a hot meal, all mortals perked up. Some people even spontaneously repaired the protective wall and strengthened the defense.

Once people have hope, they will have endless motivation, even if the hope is small, there is always hope.

Tie Yunqing stood in the valley, on a high platform that was originally built for the clan leader to observe the battlefield. This high platform is made of iron. Although it has experienced several battles and is scarred, it still stands.

The wolves of Snow Wolf Mountain should be accumulating the last wave of strength. As long as they can resist, my plan will succeed. Tie Yunqing looked at the distant peaks and kept thinking in his mind.

"People?"

Tie Yunqing stood on the high platform and looked casually, and actually found a figure walking towards the Wangjia Village in Tongtie Mountain.

Unfortunately, his snake signal Gu can only sense heat and judge the number and size of creatures. It does not have the ability to see far and cannot judge the appearance of the person coming.

Not long after, a middle-aged man about 1.6 meters tall, carrying a long sword on his back and a wisp of white hair on his forehead, walked step by step towards the Wangjia Village, only a few hundred meters away from the valley.

"Master!" Tie Yunqing shouted at the person who came, waving his arms. Although he couldn't see the face of the person coming, the appearance of his master Tiejian was too obvious.

After a while, the dusty Tiejian finally reached the valley entrance of Wangjiashanzhai.

He frowned and looked at the broken iron-wrapped protective wall at the valley entrance, where corpses were piled up in a mess. In the valley, there was a bloody smell, a stench, and the bright face of his apprentice.

Tiejian sighed, kicked open the protective wall, and walked into Wangjiashanzhai.
