Chapter 499: Laughing Away Grudges
The sudden sound, not very loud, but like a thunder, echoed in everyone’s mind at that moment.
Because, the person’s words were clearly insulting Xia Qi!
After Jiang Yun, someone else dared to openly go against the Xia family!
Everyone quickly turned their heads to see where the sound was coming from.
They all wanted to see who had the courage.
Jiang Yun’s body trembled as soon as the sound rang out.
He was very familiar with this voice, and even knew who it was.
However, he never expected to hear this person’s voice at this moment.
Never would have expected that, when facing the strong in Sky Blessed Realm all alone, the owner of the voice actually stepped forward to support me!
As for Xia Qi, the calm face that had just restored erupted with immense anger once again.
He had no idea what was happening now, after spending hundreds of years in closed-door cultivation. This world seemed to have become strange, with people daring to challenge his authority.
His eyes suddenly shot out two cold beams, directly covering the person speaking.
This was a masked individual who, despite all the attention, remained calm and composed. He calmly reached up and removed the mask, revealing a handsome face.
Though expressionless, there was a hint of pride between his brows.
Seeing this person, everyone around couldn’t help but be surprised.
"This, this is someone from the Song family!"
"How could he step forward at this moment to help Jiang Yun speak?"
"Before, Elder Feng Dingyun from the Feng family appeared to stop Xia Zhongwu, and now someone from the Song family has come forward to support Jiang Yun. Who is this Jiang Yun, really?"
Everyone immediately recognized the masked figure as the Beast Tamer from the Song family participating in the Beast Arena this time.
However, the person paid no attention to the others and instead looked directly at Jiang Yun, nodding lightly as their gazes met.
"Who are you again?"
Xia Qi’s voice, almost roaring, boomed as he looked at the young man of similar age to Jiang Yun.
The masked person coldly replied, "Guan Yiming."
Guan Yiming, a talented healer from the Grand Medicine Sect!
Like Jiang Yun, he also landed in The Barbaric Southern Land within this Ancient Grand Desolate World.
Furthermore, his luck was a bit better than Jiang Yun’s. He landed directly within the region of the Song family, one of the three major families, was discovered by the Song family members, and taken in by them.
Luckily, the head of the Song family had a hidden illness, which Guan Yiming cured and the Song family treated him with great respect.
Moreover, he was highly esteemed by the Song family for his exceptional skills in making medicine.
Although Guan Yiming’s skills in medicine were not as good as Jiang Yun’s, he was now a talented pharmacist of the sixth rank, higher than Jiang Yun in alchemy.
Furthermore, due to the ancient and outdated alchemy methods in the Ancient Grand Desolate World, the medicine he produced was highly valued by the Song family.
Therefore, the Song family treated him with great kindness.
They even knew that he was not originally from this world and was searching for a way to leave, which led him to the Beast Arena.
However, he did not expect to encounter Jiang Yun there.
Although there was some tension between him and Jiang Yun, they did not have any quarrels.
The only source of slight animosity towards Jiang Yun was his inferior skill in medicine compared to him.
However, that is in comparison to Mountain-Sea World.
Mountain-Sea World is their shared home, and here in this Ancient Grand Desolate World, they, as outsiders, are in a way, the true family.
Therefore, upon seeing Jiang Yun stand alone against the Xia family, and hearing Xia Qi’s words, he finally decided to step forward and support Jiang Yun!
Although Jiang Yun had already recognized Guan Yiming’s voice, he still couldn’t quite believe it until he saw his face and heard him say his name out loud.
As they looked at each other, Jiang Yun gave a slight smile and greeted Guan Yiming with a fist salute.
After a moment of hesitation, Guan Yiming also returned the fist salute, and on his usually serious face, a rare smile appeared.
Although neither of them spoke, in this exchange of fist salutes and smiles, all past grievances vanished!
As for the others, upon hearing Guan Yiming’s name, they were suddenly shocked.
"His last name is Guan?"
"He is not part of the Song family, right?"
"I understand now, he was invited as an offering by the Song family!"
Upon hearing the discussions of the crowd, Guan Yiming calmly spoke again, "Although I used to be an offering of the Song family, since just now, I have no more ties with the Song family!"
Guan Yiming is not a selfish person.
He always remembers the help he received from the Song family. When he was with the Song family, he devoted himself wholeheartedly to making pills for them, even teaching them how to make medicine step by step.
Now, although he is helping Jiang Yun, he also doesn’t want to cause trouble for the Song family because of himself. So, he has clearly separated himself from the Song family.
In this boundary, whatever outsiders do, even as offerings, does not represent what the group does.
Especially after setting boundaries, even the Xia family, unless they are willing to break the rules, they cannot do anything to the Song family just because Guan Yiming supports Jiang Yun.
However, as soon as Guan Yiming’s voice fell silent, a silver-haired young-looking old man stood up and said, "The offering’s words are incorrect. We, the Song family, may not be as powerful as the Xia family, but we are not timid people."
"The Xia family did wrong first, Jiang Yun’s Taoist friend was only defending himself, so my Song family supports him!"
The old man was none other than Song family’s leader, Song Rui, a strong Earth Protection Realm expert!
Xia Qi’s eyes were filled with anger as he stared intensely at Song Rui, saying, "Fine, Song family, you are good!"
"Is there anyone else willing to protect this Jiang Yun?"
Xia Qi looked directly towards the Feng family and said, "I heard that Feng Dingyun, you previously helped Jiang Yun. Now, Feng family, are you not going to protect him?"
The Feng family’s leader was not present. Feng Dingyun, as an elder, was the strongest one sent by the Feng family this time. However, faced with Xia Qi’s direct question, he dared not speak.
Master Feng had already withdrawn and pretended not to hear anything.
Unfortunately, Jiang Yun flipped his wrist, raised his hand, and threw out a Token, saying, "Feng family, I don’t need your protection, but I need you to protect all the people of Xiao Village!"
Nine Stele Token!
Feng Dingyun looked almost blankly at the Token floating above his head, then suddenly turned to Master Feng and said, "young master, this token…"
Master Feng shrank his neck and said, "I spent a lot of money in order to win over Jiang Yun!"
Master Feng’s words made Feng Dingyun smile bitterly, but then he gritted his teeth, bowed to Xia Qi, and said, "Senior Xia, the Nine Stele Token is very important for my Feng family, so I cannot protect Jiang Yun, but I must protect the people of Xiao Village. I hope Senior Xia can understand!"
As he finished speaking, he waved his sleeves and brought the stunned Xiao Yun and others to his side.
Xia Qi sneered repeatedly, "Any more takers!"
"I dare not say that my Yu family will protect Jiang Yun, but I can prove that Xia Zhongwu did indeed try to kill Jiang Yun earlier. He even went so far as to secretly send people to imprison both me and Xia Minglou at the same time!"
Yu Cangwu finally stepped forward!
