Chapter 1240: My Family

t's the Tianjing Pill I refined!”Yang Shichong shook his head, no longer looking at Jiang Yun, but turned to Elder Han and said: "Elder Han, this grand competition should come to an end now.""Now, ple...Kong Benchu's expression changed drastically after receiving the jade slip. Jiang Yun saw it clearly and could easily guess that he must have encountered some difficulties.

Therefore, at this moment, he was seeking help from himself, and even for his entire family. Jiang Yun didn't find it surprising at all, nodding slightly and saying: "Kong Dao You, if there is anything you need my help with, just speak plainly!"

Kǒng Běnchū suddenly glanced at Kǒng Mèng, hesitated for a moment and said: "Gēng Daoist friend, this favor, I am truly a bit reluctant to ask, but now, I'm afraid only Daoist friend can help."

"I think, I want to let Kongmeng stay with Dao You for a while."

As soon as Kong Benchu uttered these words, not only Jiang Yun but all the members of the Kong family were stunned.

Even some people can't help but suspect that Kong Benchu may have taken a liking to Jiang Yun, so he came up with an excuse to try and bring Kong Meng and Jiang Yun together.

Kong Meng's face flushed instantly red. He just opened his mouth, but Kong Benchu glared him back with a look, leaving him no choice but to shut up.

"Jiang Yun frowned and said, "Kong Dao-you, what happened to your Kong family"

Given Ginger Cloud's personality and current situation, it's impossible for her to keep Kong Meng by her side. So she might as well directly ask the Kong family what difficulties they are facing!

"Ai!" Kong Benchu sighed. "Our Kong family has always had a rival, the Guan family!"

"Originally, our two families were evenly matched in strength and had some connection to the Five Elements Daoist Sect. Although we were always engaged in a covert struggle with each other, neither side could gain the upper hand."

But ever since that incident happened that year, the Wuxing Daozong began to gradually distance themselves from my Kong family, but they have been very attentive to the Guan family.

So now the Guan family is stronger than us, and in our struggle against each other, our Kong family has naturally fallen behind.

Now, the Guan family has even gone so far as to send someone to our door to propose marriage, wanting us to betrothed Meng'er to their eldest son, Guan Zhifei!

"If we don't agree, they will take action against my family!"

Upon hearing this, all the Kong family members were immediately furious, especially Kong Meng. His already flushed face turned even worse.

Kong Xiu shouted even louder, "Ancestors, that Guan Zhifei and Tian Ze are both no good. Under no circumstances can we marry the young lady to either of them!"

Kǒng Běnchū glared at Kǒng Xiù and said, "Of course I wouldn't marry Mèng'er to him. That's why I hope that Daoist Jiāng can let Mèng'er stay by his side for a while."

Kǒng Běn Chū looked at Jiāng Yún again and said, “Jiāng Daoyóu, now do you understand Our two families have been fighting for so many years, naturally we know each other well. So no matter where I send Mèng'er, the Guān family will be able to find her.”

Only if Meng'er stays by your side can Guan Jia never suspect anything.

"As for you, Elder Jiang, please rest assured. I will find a way to resolve this matter upon my return and bring Meng'er back. It won't trouble you for too long. Furthermore, my family will certainly express our deepest gratitude to you."

Ginger Yun nodded slightly, then said faintly: "Don't you worry that I might be a bad person"

Kǒng Běnchū's face was serene and composed as he stated, "Although I am old, my eyes have not yet dimmed to the point where I cannot distinguish between good and evil."

"Jian Dao You and we are strangers, but he is willing to help us in our time of need. How could he be a bad person!"

Ginger Cloud smiled faintly, stopped talking, and fell into deep thought.

Family feuds like those between the Kong and Guan families are common occurrences anywhere you go. Given Ginger Cloud's personality, she wouldn't bother herself with such trivial matters.

However, he had some connection with the Kong family, so seeing them in trouble, he really couldn't just stand by and do nothing.

After a moment of contemplation, Jiang Yun finally spoke: "Your method is only treating the symptoms, not the root cause. This time you may be able to get away with it, but what if that family comes again next time to propose marriage What will you do then"

Kong Benchu sighed and said, "I know, but all we can do now is take it one step at a time."

"Ugh!" Jiang Yun also sighed and said, "Alright, I agree to you, but not by keeping Kong Meng by my side. Instead, I'll accompany you back to the Kong family mansion and see for myself just how powerful this so-called 'mighty family' truly is!"

Jiang Yun's words made Kong Benchu startled for a moment.

Actually, deep down he had considered inviting Jiang Yun to the Kong family for help. However, that request was truly too abrupt, so he never said it.

He really didn't expect that Jiang Yun would actually take the initiative to bring it up.

However, he also smiled wryly and said, “Kong Jia understands Daoist Jiang’s kindness, but our family has the Five Elements Dao Sect backing us. If Daoist friend helps us, it would be equivalent to offending the Five Elements Dao Sect. Therefore, Kong must absolutely not let Daoist Jiang suffer an unjust calamity.”

Ginger said calmly, "It doesn't matter. I'm going to the Five Elements Dao Sect sooner or later anyway. If they don't send anyone this time, it's fine. If they do, then I'll see if I can take care of my own business at the same time!"

Jiǔ Dào Zong, Jiang Yun was bound to visit one by one. If he could truly pass through the conflict between the Guan family and the Kong family and get in touch with the people of Wǔ Xíng Dào Zong beforehand, it wouldn't be a big deal for Jiang Yun.

Moreover, Jiang Yun also had some understanding of the Five Elements Dao Sect, knowing that it wasn't entirely composed of human cultivators within. There were quite a few demon cultivators as well.

After all, in terms of understanding the Way of the Five Elements, many aspects are far superior to humans. Therefore, facing the Wuxing Daozong, one does not necessarily lose.

"This…"

Kong Benchu is truly speechless at how to express his inner gratitude.

Although Ginger Cloud claimed there was some connection between her and the Kong family, a connection she herself could vaguely guess at, it wasn't close enough to warrant Ginger Cloud risking herself for them.

Jiang Yun waved at him and said, "Kong Daoyou, you don't need to say anything. Let me greet my friends first."

Jiang Yun turned around and looked at Bai Ze beside him.

And Bai Ze was rolling his eyes, his face full of displeasure.

He could hear every word of the conversation between Ginger Cloud and Kong Benchu.

And he knew Gingercloud's character very well, knowing that once Gingercloud had made a decision, no one could change it.

Of course, this also means that Jiang Yun is impossible to enter the Heavenly Pond Realm with himself.

Ginger Cloud smiled apologetically. "Sorry, Bai Ze, as you heard, I and the Kong family… But don't worry, after I finish these things, I'll definitely come to Tianze Realm to find you."

Bai Ze's eyes almost popped out of his head, and he said angrily, "I don't even know you! By the time you finish all your business, I'll probably be a Daoist!"

"Alright, I won't keep you. You better get going, I'm heading home!"

After finishing his words, Bai Ze turned to enter the Tianze Realm, but Jiang Yun stopped him, shouting, "Wait!"

What's the matter

Gingercloud didn't speak, but suddenly spat a mouthful of fresh blood onto the demonic-suppressing brush she had always held in her hand.

His aura surged violently, pouring all his strength into it. On Bai Ze's brow, he meticulously painted the life and death demonic seal, nearly completing it.

While painting, Ginger Cloud spoke, "Today, Ginger Cloud blesses you as a demon refiner. From now on, your path of cultivation will be smooth, and you will become a great master!"

The Seal of Life and Death, it slays demons and grants life to monsters!

As Jiang Yun's voice fell, the life-and-death demon seal was finally completed, transforming into a beam of light that disappeared into Bai Ze's brow.

And looking at the face that had become ashen, Bai Ze was like a statue, staring blankly at Jiang Yun, his eyes rolling with mist!

This is no ordinary life and death talisman. It was painted by Jiang Yun using his own blood essence for Bai Ze, truly condensing Jiang Yun's heart and soul.

With this mark, Bai Ze was like having a secret technique that could permanently boost his power. As Jiang Yun said, from now on, his cultivation journey would be much smoother.

Jiang Yun smiled slightly, patted Bai Ze's head and said, "Goodbye, my family!"
