this jade pendant apparently doesn't seem to have any effect.Even though Gingercloud held the jade pendant right now, it didn't react at all.However, looking at this jade pendant, Ginger Cloud's hear...The man who suddenly appeared, with a yellow complexion, was naturally Xia Zhongwu!

He didn't even look at the pile of bloody remains Zhao Xin lay upon, but instead scanned the stands around him and declared: "This man acted within Xia City, violating the rules of the Xia Family, so I have killed him as a warning!"

Then, Xia Zhongwu's gaze slowly turned to Jiang Yun and said: "You have also violated the rules of my Xia family!"

Although Jiang Yun didn't know Xia Zhongwu, he had seen him twice already. It wasn't difficult to guess that he was the one colluding with Kimura.

And at this moment, he suddenly struck and killed Xiao Wangjie. Jiang Yun could even more clearly feel that the person who instigated Zhao Xin to attack Xiao Wangjie was also him!

Especially the palm strike he just used to kill Zhao Xin showed his strength, at least he's a Dao Ling realm expert!

This is clearly a threat against me, and they even want to take the opportunity to kill me.

But although he knew all of this, Ginger Cloud had absolutely no evidence at all.

Therefore, just as everyone was paying attention to Xia Zhongwu, he stealthily put Zhao Xin's life fire into the Flameless Puppet Lamp.

Faced with Xia Zhongwu's questioning, Jiang Yun instead turned his gaze to Zhao Xin's corpse on the ground, and coldly said: "From now on, if anyone dares to attack my Xiao Village people again, he will meet the same end!"

After finishing his words, Ginger Cloud turned and walked away, completely ignoring Xia Zhongwu.

This made Xia Zhongwu's eyes flash with cold light. He raised his hand and grabbed towards Jiang Yun, saying: "Didn't you hear what I said!"

Although Ginger Cloud was facing away from Xia Zhongwu, he couldn't help but be on guard against him.

Even his hands were already secretly forming hand seals. Should the other party dare to make a move, he would unleash the Heaven-Offering Technique once more.

And it's not a second time offering to heaven, but a third time!

Although Ginger Cloud is decisive in her actions, she is certainly not reckless.

Since he dared to make a move against Zhao Xin in broad daylight, he must have anticipated all possible consequences and made thorough preparations.

First, this wasn't his intention to violate the Xia family rules. Zhao Xin's first answer already made it clear to everyone what happened.

He is a person from Xiao Village who was wronged first, and he is just retaliating in kind.

If the Xia family were truly impartial, they shouldn't have bothered Jiang Yun at all.

But now, Xia Zhongwu seems to be treating Jiang Yun just like Zhao Xin, preparing to execute him. Jiang Yun has also made some preparations.

This preparation is the art of sacrificing to heaven.

This is also why he didn't use flesh and blood as a sacrifice this time, but chose his own life force instead.

Because he possesses a life force far greater than ordinary people, enough to support him in completing three celestial rituals in a short period of time, thereby temporarily elevating his power to the level of a Dao Spirit!

Therefore, even though Xia Zhongwu is a powerful warrior of the Dao Ling realm, he still has the strength to fight.

Apart from that, Jiang Yun had one final trump card, so powerful that even if a Xia family expert at the Heaven's Mandate Realm appeared, he might not be their match. However, at the very least, he could ensure his own safety and that of the people from Xiao Village.

However, just as he was about to perform the three ceremonies of sacrifice, a voice rang out from within the arena: "Xia brother, wait!"

As the sound echoed, Xia Zhongwu's hand that was reaching for Jiangyun suddenly froze in mid-air. Looking at the smiling old man who appeared before him, he frowned and said, "Feng brother!"

For this old man, Jiang Yun didn't know him, but most of the people present did.

As is well known, throughout the entire Southern Barbarian land, there is only one Daoist family, the Xia Family. However, under the Xia Family, there are three powerful clans whose strength is second only to the Xia Family.

They are the Feng family, the Yu family, and the Song family!

This suddenly appearing elder, named Feng Dingyun, was an elder of the Feng family.

For Feng Dingyun to appear at this time and stop Xia Zhongwu was a clear act of helping Jiang Yun. Everyone was puzzled and confused.

Only Jiang Yun understood immediately after hearing the other person's name.

The elixir that he had once swallowed for Master Feng was now showing its effects.

At this moment, Master Feng inside the room was filled with helplessness and frustration. No one desired to kill Jiang Yun more than him.

But seeing Xia Zhongwu about to kill Jiang Yun, he had to immediately notify the elders of his family to come forward, stop Xia Zhongwu, and save Jiang Yun.

Feng Dingyuan, also a strong practitioner of the Dao Spirit Realm, cupped his hands and bowed to Xia Zhongwu: "Brother Xia, this son's actions are indeed wrong, but he is also excusable. Besides, he is the champion of the ring, and the competition has not yet ended. Why don't you, Brother Xia, show mercy and let him off"

"Or, we could wait until after the gladiatorial games and then punish him, how about that"

After hearing Feng Dingyun's words, Xia Zhongwu's brows furrowed even tighter. To be honest, he was also surprised by Feng Dingyun's appearance.

Especially since Feng Dingyun even directly spoke up for Jiang Yun, pleading on his behalf. That made it impossible for him to continue attacking Jiang Yun.

Even though the Xia family belongs to the Dao clan, they would not want to tear their face with the three major families unless absolutely necessary.

Besides, Feng Dingyun was also telling the truth. Even if Jiang Yun attacking Zhao Xin was wrong, there was a reason for it, and the crime didn't deserve death.

If you really insist on killing Jiangyun, it will be difficult to explain to the clan when you return.

Especially thinking of Xia Minglou and Yu Cangwu, who are still trapped by himself, once they know that Jiang Yun died at his hands, it will bring him unnecessary trouble in the future.

After a moment of contemplation, Xia Zhongwu's furrowed brows gradually relaxed as he nodded and said, "In fact, I didn't really want to kill this young man. It's just that he was too arrogant, so I wanted to give him a lesson."

"Since Brother Feng has spoken, little brother naturally wants to give you face. We'll punish him after the meeting is over!"

Feng Dingyun hurriedly bowed deeply to Xia Zhongwu and said, "Thank you!"

"Alright, that's it for now!"

Xia Zhongwu swept his gaze across the beast arena once more and said, "If anyone dares to provoke the dignity of my Xia family again, don't blame me for being rude!"

After uttering those words, Xia Zhongwu and Feng Dingyun vanished one after the other. As for Zhao's family, they hurriedly left with Zhao Xin's corpse.

As for Gingercloud, he didn't even turn his head back. He walked straight back onto the stage as if nothing had happened and said to Xiaokao: "How is this not over yet"

All eyes were on him, including Xiaokou and Shenlong's, so the seventh stage was still undecided.

Hearing Ginger Cloud's words, Xiao Jiao spat out its snake letter and suddenly stood tall. Electric light surrounded its single horn as it charged towards the Iron Wood Turtle.

Shen Long also came to his senses, but at this moment, there was no trace of his previous arrogance on his face. Even when he looked at Jiang Yun, there was a deep fear in his eyes.

To openly attack others in front of the Xia family and have the Feng family plead for them, such a person is not someone you can provoke or deal with yourself!

"I give up!"

Thinking of this, Shen Long suddenly let out a loud roar and quickly retracted his ironwood turtle. He jumped off the stage like he was escaping for his life.

The number on the stele of the seventh ring instantly changed to fifty!

Jiang Yun once again sat cross-legged in the center of the ring, Xiao Jiao also returned to its original position, lying lazily, and continued waiting for the next challenger.

In a certain room, Xia Zhongwu looked at Jiang Yun, his brows furrowed tightly together. He murmured to himself: "It seems that only Yang Yanzhao from the Yang family took action in advance!"

First published on the Traditional Chinese Novels Networks left his mouth, Ginger Junhao's expression changed drastically. He abruptly turned his head and looked in a certain direction.Meanwhile, Jiang Zhan saw the change in Jiang Junhao's expression. Just...
