Chapter 498: There Really Is One
ond comprehension; everyone's minds were blank, devoid of any language or thought capable of describing their current feelings.Dao Tianyou coughed softly and said: "I will personally send Wan Hongbo t...Seeing the figure burst out from the ruins, tightly clutching Xia Zhongwu's spirit in its hand, everyone was instantly stunned into silence.
Even the weathered face of Xia Qi in the sky above showed a hint of astonishment.
But amidst his shock, there was a hint of bewilderment.
Of course, this figure is Jiang Yun!
Although he is now covered in scars, his clothes are tattered, and his cultivation has fallen back to the Fudi realm, his state is still much better than Xia Zhongwu's.
And this is what makes it unbelievable and incomprehensible to everyone.
Everyone originally believed that Jiang Yun would definitely prioritize self-preservation and abandon the attack on Xia Zhongwu, instead choosing to confront Xia Qi's palm strike.
But Ginger Cloud acted recklessly, still striking Xia Zhongwu with a palm strike. This resulted in him forcibly taking Xia Qi's palm strike head-on.
However, now he not only didn't die, but judging by his appearance, he seemed to be completely unharmed. This was simply impossible.
As for Xia Zhongwu, who had just been filled with a ferocious expression, his face was now replaced by fear.
His eyes, nearly vacant, stared at Jiang Yun, mumbling, "Impossible, impossible, you can't still be alive!"
Jiang Yun's eyes were still cold. He had heard clearly what Xia Zhongwu, who had barely survived the calamity, had said just now.
"I won't die before I kill you!"
"What's your name!"
Just then, the weathered face in the sky spoke again.
But there was no anger in his words, only a touch of solemnity.
Xia Qi, as a strong individual in the Tianyou Realm, as the strongest member of the Xia family, and even one of the top powerhouses in this ancient desolate world.
He had long since stopped caring about worldly affairs. He stayed at the Xia family's residence, quietly retreated to seclusion, striving for a breakthrough in his own realm, and seeking ways to enter the realm of questioning the Dao.
Today, if it weren't for Ginger Cloud's four celestial sacrifices, which aroused a vast amount of heavenly power and awakened him, he wouldn't have been able to split even a sliver of his divine consciousness here.
Therefore, he was able to save him just in time when Xia Zhongwu was about to be burned by the Law Fire.
Although he didn't know what had happened between Xia Zhongwu and Jiang Yun, or even who Jiang Yun was, he didn't need to know.
With his status and power, even if only a sliver of his consciousness appeared, everyone in this realm, including the other powerful beings of equal strength, would have to show him some respect.
But he didn't expect that Ginger Cloud would, in front of him, continue to strike and kill Xia Zhongwu with his earth power. This left his sliver of divine sense no time to save his grandson.
Out of desperation, he had no choice but to turn his attack on Jiang Yun, hoping to force him to save himself. And indeed, the palm strike was intended to kill Jiang Yun.
However, Jiangyun once again gave him a big surprise.
Not only did he receive the blow, but at the moment his palm landed on Jiang Yun's body, he clearly felt another powerful aura, also of the Heavenly Blessing Realm.
This is the reason why Ginger Cloud doesn't have any major problems right now!
Therefore, after Xia Qi realized that Jiang Yun, a boy who only had the cultivation level of the Fu Di Realm, actually had the breath of the Tian You Realm hidden within him, his attitude towards Jiang Yun naturally changed.
It's not that he was afraid of the Heavenly Favor Realm, but because this was the Xia family's territory.
If he fought another Heaven's Blessing Realm expert here, the Xia family and its members would be the ones to suffer.
Ginger had always known, of course. Even though Su Yang was afraid she didn't know and shouted loudly, it was indeed him who saved her life.
At this moment, hearing Xia Qi's question, Jiang Yun did not hesitate and calmly replied, "Jiang Yun!"
"Ginger"
At the mention of Jiang Yun's name, Xia Qi was clearly taken aback.
Because he had an extremely deep understanding of the distribution of power in this world, but he had never heard of a large clan surnamed Ginger.
After a moment's pause, Xia Qi spoke again: "Jiang Yun, I don't care what grievances you may have with my Xia family. Today, as long as you let go of my grandson, all these grievances can be wiped clean!"
Xia Qi's words made everyone gasp in surprise.
Even the powerful Dao Spirit Realm cultivators from the Xia family were like this.
Given Xia Qi's position, he wouldn't have spoken to Jiang Yun like that unless he was concerned about Xia Zhongwu's safety and also wary of Jiang Yun!
Even, the feeling given to everyone, Xia Qi's attitude towards Jiang Yun at this moment, didn't seem like treating a junior or an enemy at all, but more like treating an equal!
"However, Jiang Yun shook his head and said: 'Actually, I'm also very curious. What kind of grudge is there between me and your Xia family that forces your grandson to be so determined to put me to death!'"
After finishing, Jiang Yun looked at Xia Zhongwu's Dao Spirit and said, "You should be able to give me an explanation for this!"
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Xia Zhongwu wanted to say something harsh in response to Jiang Yun's question, but as he felt the increasing strength emanating from Jiang Yun's palm, he could only grit his teeth and say: "It's not that I have a personal grudge against you, but I am doing this out of loyalty to the person who entrusted me with this task!"
Before Jiang Yun could react, Mu Wanchun and his son in the distance saw a change in their expressions.
After witnessing Jiang Yun's strength, they were too afraid to oppose him anymore. However, now Xia Zhongwu was deliberately directing the hostility towards himself.
However, Gingercloud suddenly burst into laughter and said: “I didn’t expect you to be so loyal. Just for a mere Kimura, you would even risk your own life to help them kill me”
Jiang Yun knew that Xia Zhongwu was evading the main issue and trying to divert her attention.
Even if Kimura begged him to kill himself, he wouldn't go this far.
Xia Zhongwu glared fiercely and said, "You even injured my son!"
"That's after you try to kill me!"
Jiang Yun's smile on his face froze suddenly and said, "Since you don't want to say it, I'm too lazy to listen. No matter why you have to kill me, it doesn't matter now!"
As soon as the words left his mouth, Jiang Yun’s palm suddenly tightened, and a shrill scream escaped Xia Zhongwu’s lips. He felt like his Dao Spirit was about to be crushed.
"Stop!"
Xia Qi's face was once again filled with anger.
Although he was a bit wary of the aura of a Tian You realm expert on Jiang Yun's body, Jiang Yun actually dared to face him and repeatedly threaten Xia Zhongwu. This pushed his patience to its limit.
"Ginger Cloud, if you want to kill my grandson, go ahead. But, consider the consequences!"
Xia Qi said coldly, "As long as you dare to kill anyone from my Xia family, then from now on, there will be no place for you in this world!"
"In this world, no other group would dare to shelter you, nor would anyone dare to help you!"
"You, your clan, and anyone even remotely related to you will be hunted down relentlessly by my Xia family until death!"
A cold light flashed in Jiang Yun's eyes. "Are you threatening me"
Xia Qi's aged face had returned to its usual calm. "I am not threatening you," he said, using his position to state a fact.
"If you don't believe me, you can ask now. There are thousands of clans here today, is there one who would dare to help Ginger Cloud, dare to go against the Xia family"
Xia Qi's identity!
This is the power of a Tianyou Realm expert. As long as he is willing, everything he says can indeed become reality!
Xia Qi's voice boomed, a heavy thud against everyone's hearts, causing them to unconsciously step back.
However, in the crowd, there was a figure who not only did not retreat but took a step forward, faintly saying, "It seems, there really is one!"
