Chapter 478: Stood Up
Even though Xiao Wangjie came back alive, from his appearance, it was clear he was attacked and seriously injured. This made Jiang Yun suddenly realize he had been careless.
Although Xia City doesn’t allow fighting, even Yu Cangwu could be attacked, not to mention himself and the people from Xiao Village.
Moreover, being chosen as the first batch of challengers, it was obvious that someone tampered with the drawing lots, and the only ones capable of doing that were Xia family.
This clearly indicates that Mu Village is colluding secretly with Xia family. With Xia family’s power, wiping out himself and the people from Xiao Village would be easy.
However, Jiang Yun was also confused. If it was indeed Xia family who attacked Xiao Wangjie, considering Xiao Wangjie’s strength, he wouldn’t have survived.
Thinking of this, Jiang Yun completely ignored the tense standoff between Little Horn and Human-Faced Fox on the platform and directly asked Xiao Wangjie through a message, "Wangjie, who hurt you?"
Upon hearing Jiang Yun’s message, Xiao Wangjie was visibly stunned, but quickly shook his head and hesitantly said, "No, nobody did. I just accidentally fell."
Such words wouldn’t even fool a child, let alone Jiang Yun!
Jiang Yun’s eyes flashed coldly and he was about to ask again, but suddenly another voice sounded beside his ear, "Taoist Friend Jiang!"
This voice was very unfamiliar to Jiang Yun, and the other party continued, "Taoist Friend Jiang, we have met before, a year ago, in Xiao Village Valley, I also helped you block an old woman!"
Hearing this, Jiang Yun suddenly understood that the other party was from the Yu family, and was the Tao Spiritual Realm cultivator who always followed Yu Cangwu to protect him.
Obviously, Xiao Wangjie had already notified the people from the Yu family.
"Taoist Friend Jiang, you said that my young master was attacked, may I ask what happened? Do you have any evidence?"
Instead of answering, Jiang Yun asked back, "Do you know who attacked Xiao Wangjie?"
"He was attacked by people from the Zhao family. Luckily I appeared in time, otherwise it would not have been just a simple injury!"
"The Zhao family!" Jiang Yun showed a fierce look, "Where are they?"
Jiang Yun already understood that his own actions and those of the people in Xiao Village were probably under surveillance by others, so when Xiao Wangjie left the Beast Arena alone, he was followed by someone.
And then, it should be after Xiao Wangjie told the Yu family, they were attacked by the other party. Otherwise, Yu family’s Tao Spiritual Realm cultivator wouldn’t have been able to help.
"They’re not here, they should be coming soon!"
The Tao Spiritual Realm cultivator from Yu family said, "Taoist Friend Jiang, I have answered all your questions. Now, you should tell me how you knew my son was attacked."
Although Jiang Yun was angry, he couldn’t take it out on Yu family, so he held back his anger and said, "He sent me a message, warning me to be careful, but before he could finish, I heard a grunt, and then nothing. So, I guessed he was attacked."
"I understand, thank you, Taoist Friend Jiang!"
After saying this, the Tao Spiritual Realm cultivator’s voice didn’t come again, he must have been trying to find out where Yu Cangwu was.
With Yu family’s power, they must have tried other ways to contact Yu Cangwu and probably couldn’t reach him, that’s why they ended up finding Jiang Yun.
"Zhao family!"
After repeating those two words, Jiang Yun put away his anger and looked up at the arena.
At this moment, Little Horn and the Human-Faced Fox were only about half a foot apart. The Human-Faced Fox kept whispering the Voice of Temptation, while Little Horn seemed to be dozing off.
Seeing this, Jiang Yun frowned and said, "Little Horn, stop playing around!"
Little Horn is a demon beast, not a super beast. With its intelligence awakened, it would not be affected by the Human-Faced Fox’s low-level enchantment. It was just playing a game with the Human-Faced Fox.
Normally, Jiang Yun wouldn’t bother much and let it play. But now, Jiang Yun was in a bad mood, so he spoke out.
Hearing Jiang Yun’s voice, Little Horn suddenly opened its eyes halfway, leaped up like lightning from the ground, and thrust its horn directly into the Human-Faced Fox’s throat.
The Human-Faced Fox couldn’t make any sound anymore. After a violent tremble, it fell on the arena floor.
"Ah!"
Seeing the Human-Faced Fox lying in a pool of blood, Shen Long let out a furious roar and stared viciously at Jiang Yun.
If it weren’t for the rules of the Beast Arena that forbade Beast Tamers from intervening, he might have rushed towards Jiang Yun immediately.
This sudden scene left the audience on the stands shocked and speechless.
In their minds, they all thought Little Horn had been successfully bewitched by the Human-Faced Fox, and would soon leave Jiang Yun and turn to Shen Long instead.
But no one expected that Little Horn had been pretending all along and instantly killed the Human-Faced Fox.
This outcome was truly beyond their expectations.
Shen Long suddenly spoke to the elderly man sitting cross-legged above the arena, "Sir, this battle is unfair!"
The old man didn’t even open his eyes, and calmly asked, "How is it unfair?"
Shen Long shouted, "The Human-Faced Fox of our younger generation had successfully bewitched the python, but then Jiang Yun suddenly intervened, clearly using his own abilities to awaken the python, leading it to counterattack and kill my Human-Faced Fox."
"Jiang Yun’s actions violated the rule that Beast Tamers should not interfere, so I ask the elder to punish him severely."
Upon hearing Shen Long’s words, although most people knew he was just causing trouble, some agreed with him, thinking his argument was reasonable.
As everyone knows, being enchanted is like being asleep, a little external stimulation could wake them up.
But the thin old man coldly smiled and said, "Whether he has used his power, do you think I wouldn’t notice?"
"Um…"
With just one sentence, Shen Long immediately shut his mouth. Even if he had great courage, he wouldn’t dare to question a strong Tao Spiritual Realm expert.
The old man spoke again, "If you don’t have any other beasts, then you lose this challenge!"
"I do!"
Shen Long gritted his teeth and said, "Jiang Yun, this time I will beat you fair and square!"
With those words, Shen Long waved his sleeves and a big black turtle appeared in front of everyone.
Shen Long smirked, "This is a Level 3 super beast, the Ironwood Turtle. Jiang Yun, I want to see how your python’s horn can pierce through this turtle’s defense."
Jiang Yun was about to speak when he suddenly heard the voice of a Tao Spiritual Realm cultivator from the Yu family saying, "Friend Jiang, members of the Zhao family have arrived. They are at the east gate. The person who just attacked Xiao Wangjie is the eldest son of the Zhao family, Zhao Xin!"
Jiang Yun’s gaze quickly turned to the east gate and indeed saw a group of people entering. Interestingly, the young man leading them was also looking at Jiang Yun.
Their eyes met in the air, and the man suddenly raised his hand, lightly swiping his neck with a provocative look on his face. He whispered, "You’re done for!"
Seeing the man’s actions, Jiang Yun’s face unexpectedly showed a slight smile.
Then, he stood up!
