Chapter 441: A Misunderstanding
With a command from Lin Ruitian, the elderly man in black who had just slapped Xiao Wangjie took another step forward.
However, this time he intentionally walked slowly towards the young man, not fast at all.
Clearly, he intended for the young man to feel more fear.
The young man’s face had become extremely pale and he couldn’t stop trembling.
Although Xiao Wangjie stood in front of him, he knew he couldn’t stop the old man who could easily slap him, as the old man was much stronger.
Therefore, he clenched his teeth and said, "Lin Ruitian, we were wrong. Please forgive us and let us go, we’ll leave Hundred Family Bazaar right now!"
Even though he knew he was in the right, Xiao Wangjie chose to swallow his pride to protect his people, hoping his submission would calm Lin Ruitian down.
Lin Ruitian narrowed his eyes, staring at Xiao Wangjie, shook his head slowly and said, "If you had this attitude earlier, things wouldn’t have escalated."
"Unfortunately, now it’s too late!"
As Lin Ruitian finished speaking, Xiao Wangjie knew that today’s situation could not turn out well.
Watching the elder approaching, he looked determined, shouted loudly, and charged forward.
However, in a flash, the elder’s figure vanished into thin air, leaving him grasping at nothing.
Xiao Wangjie was suddenly horrified, realizing that the elder had evaded him and went after the young man.
Indeed, the elder now stood in front of the young man, reached out a hand to hold his chin, forcing his mouth open and unable to close.
With his other hand poised like a knife, he aimed towards the young man’s tongue.
If his fingers touched, the young man’s tongue would surely be easily cut off.
Just then, a voice filled with coldness abruptly sounded, "A tongue for a life, this deal is worth it!"
Upon hearing these words, the old man’s outstretched finger suddenly stopped and he quickly turned his head.
Beside the wild boar under Lin Ruitian, stood an expressionless young man.
Even though the young man’s hands were held behind his back, his cold eyes staring at him gave no indication of any intention to attack.
However, the fact that the other person could appear here without his notice made the old man certain that within this distance, the other person could easily kill Lin Ruitian.
The person who came was naturally Jiang Yun!
This naturally made the old man dare not continue to cut the young man’s tongue. With a cold snort, he withdrew his hand, but stayed in place, staring at Jiang Yun with the same icy gaze.
Obviously, he was worried that Jiang Yun would continue to harm Lin Ruitian, so his current position allowed him to be able to strike down Xiao Wangjie and others at any moment.
Only then did Lin Ruitian quickly turn his head and look at Jiang Yun next to him.
However, he did not find Jiang Yun particularly powerful or frightening.
Without knowing, she realized that her life was in Jiang Yun’s hands, so she furrowed her brow and asked, "Who are you?"
He didn’t see Jiang Yun as a servant of the Xiao family because Jiang Yun was very young.
He found it strange that someone dared to meddle in his affairs at the Hundred Family Bazaar.
However, what Jiang Yun said left him in shock.
"I am the leader of the Xiao village!"
Jiang Yun’s words not only surprised Lin Ruitian, but also left everyone else present in shock.
It was hard for them to believe that such a young cultivator could become the leader invited by the Xiao Village.
The people of Xiao Village seemed to trust him a lot.
When they saw the Token hanging from Jiang Yun’s waist, they understood that he was indeed the leader of Xiao Village.
Suddenly, Lin Ruitian burst into laughter and pointed at Jiang Yun without hesitation, saying, "Haha, you, master of the Xiao village?"
Jiang Yun still with a poker face nodded, "Yes, I am the master of the Xiao village!"
"Haha, good, good, good, what a master of the Xiao village!"
Lin Ruitian tapped the wild boar beneath him, and the boar stood up, looking down at Jiang Yun and said, "People of the Xiao Village say you won’t let me go?"
Jiang Yun looked up at Lin Ruitian and said, "Whether I let you go or not depends on your behavior, but I’m not used to talking to people while looking up, so…"
"Come down!"
"Bang!"
Before Lin Ruitian could react, the boar that had just stood up beneath him, surprisingly knelt down in front of Jiang Yun obediently at his command.
Lin Ruitian was completely caught off guard by this scene, and he tumbled down, along with the beautiful woman in his arms, directly from the boar’s back.
Because the ground was covered in mess, when he rolled over, his whole body instantly got sticky with all kinds of trash.
Even though he scrambled to stand up, his clothes, hair, and even his face were all colorful and looked incredibly messy.
This made the surroundings completely silent!
Although Lin Ruitian looked very funny now, no one dared to laugh.
Even the old man in black squinted his eyes slightly.
Because he never expected that Jiang Yun’s simple words could make the wild boar so obedient.
"Kill him, kill them? I will lead people to Xiao Village later and kill all the people in Xiao Village!"
At this moment, Lin Ruitian finally came to his senses, pointed at Jiang Yun, Xiao Wangjie, and others, and angrily yelled like a pig being slaughtered.
As someone of his status, he had never experienced such a huge loss, which was truly a great humiliation for him!
Even if he killed Jiang Yun and the people of Xiao Village, he couldn’t find peace.
His words made Xiao Wangjie and the others feel their hearts skip a beat, because they knew he wasn’t just bluffing, he could actually do it.
Although Xiao Village had a protective spell, its power had diminished greatly and it could collapse at any moment.
However, what happened next surprised everyone once again.
The black-robed old man who always obeyed Lin Ruitian, this time ignored his command and instead looked at Jiang Yun, then respectfully introduced himself as Lin Xi from Lin Village. He mentioned that they must have heard of each other.
"Today’s events were a misunderstanding!"
Upon hearing Lin Xi’s words, Lin Ruitian’s angry face turned into a look of surprise, as he stared almost blankly at the other man.
Clearly, he never expected that Lin Xi not only didn’t attack, but also spoke so politely to Jiang Yun.
Jiang Yun, with a blank expression, responded, "I am Jiang Yun, how could this be a misunderstanding?"
After Xiao Wangjie was hit in the face, Jiang Yun rushed back, but he stayed hidden in the crowd.
The reason he didn’t show up right away was because he wanted to see how Xiao Wangjie would handle the situation.
However, from Li Yue and the people around him, he not only learned what happened, but also found out about Lin Ruitian’s background.
Lin village, which comes from Mu village, is a branch of Mu village!
From this, it’s easy to guess that Lin village is very strong, and Lin Ruitian clearly came to bother Xiao Wangjie on purpose.
So, when Lin Xi was about to cut the young man’s tongue, he finally showed up.
Now, he really wanted to hear how Lin Xi planned to explain this "misunderstanding"!
Because the other person’s explanation would determine his stance – to fight or not to fight!
