"Interesting, I didn't expect to run into someone I know here."

When Jiang Qiong saw An Yiqi, a hint of surprise flashed across her eyes, but she did not show it on the surface and looked indifferent.

Compared to Jiang Qiong's indifference.

The people from the An family and the monks from the Zhao family who were present were very excited.

Jiang Qiong's sudden appearance caused a huge change in the atmosphere on the battlefield.

The despair in the eyes of An Yiqi, An Jin and others was gradually replaced by hope. They gathered around Jiang Qiong, with deep gratitude in their eyes.

"Thank you, senior, for coming to the rescue!"

An Jin spoke first, with a sincere emotion in her tone.

If Jiang Qiong had not appeared in time, everyone would probably have died on the spot.

This kind of life-saving friendship will be remembered forever.

"The Zhao family will always remember the kindness of our predecessors!"

The Zhao family cultivator next to him also said this, with sincerity shining in his eyes.

Jiang Qiong smiled slightly, waved his hand, and slowly said: "It's just a small favor, not worth mentioning."

He glanced around and found that everyone was injured to varying degrees, so he continued, "Take these pills and treat your injuries first."

For An Yiqi's sake.

Although Jiang Qiong did not reveal his true form, he still showed some care and took out bottles of pills and handed them to everyone.

After receiving the pills, everyone expressed their gratitude.

An Jin considered his tone and said anxiously, "Senior, the situation in Fengluo County is critical. We would like to ask you to help save the Zhao family cultivators and the An family's Patriarch and others."

Although I was rescued.

But the county town is currently under ambush.

When they suddenly met a mysterious senior, everyone naturally wanted to ask him for help.

Jiang Qiong nodded to show her understanding, and then said, "Okay, take me there."

Everyone quickly organized their team and took Jiang Qiong to the Zhao family residence.

Along the way, An Yiqi always felt that the mysterious senior next to her looked familiar, but she couldn't remember exactly where he looked familiar.

Due to the gap in realm between the two.

An Yiqi didn't dare to go forward and ask, and just kept the anger in her heart.

Compared to An Yiqi.

An Jin became enthusiastic. As they hurried on their way, they couldn't help but ask out of curiosity, "Senior, where are you from? Why are you here at this time?"

Jiang Qiong smiled faintly and said slowly: "I was originally going to the next dynasty, but when I passed by here, I sensed the fluctuation of demonic energy, so I came to take a look."

An Jin was filled with gratitude, thinking that he and his group were truly blessed. If Jiang Qiong had not passed by, they would have been doomed today.

When thoughts are running.

Everyone returned to the county town and came to the Zhao family mansion.

The glazed light shield above the mansion was still flickering, and the demonic energy inside was so dense that it was suffocating.

The monks of the Zhao family are fighting desperately, but it is obvious that they have reached the end of their strength.

"Senior, please help me!" An Jin pleaded, his eyes full of pleading.

Jiang Qiong rushed straight towards the glazed light shield of the Zhao family mansion.

Jiang Qiong stood in front of the Zhao family mansion, nodded, his eyes stern, then raised his hand and waved, and a powerful spiritual power instantly turned into a golden light.

As the golden light burst out, the evil energy around it quickly dissipated, revealing the monsters and men in black hiding in it.

The monsters had various shapes, some looked like giant vicious dogs, some were monsters covered with scales, and those men in black had hideous faces with fierce light flashing in their eyes.

Jiang Qiong's eyes focused, and he quickly formed a complex seal with his hands. Then, an even more powerful spiritual power surged out of his body, transforming into countless golden sword shadows, attacking the monsters and the men in black.

The sword shadow was like a storm, so swift and powerful that it instantly chopped more than a dozen monsters into pieces. The men in black also fell to the ground one after another under the attack of the sword shadow, and screams were heard everywhere.

One of the huge monsters roared angrily and pounced towards Jiang Qiong.

Jiang Qiong's eyes turned cold, and the seal in his hand changed. The golden sword shadow instantly condensed into a huge golden sword, piercing straight into the heart of the monster.

The monster screamed and its body turned to ashes in the air.

Seeing this scene, more than a dozen men in black quickly formed a formation and tried to trap Jiang Qiong.

They chanted spells and the magic weapons in their hands flashed with strange light, forming a black barrier that trapped Jiang Qiong inside.

Jiang Qiong's eyes were calm. He formed seals with his hands again and stepped on the ground. The ground instantly cracked open and countless golden lights poured out from the ground, directly breaking through the black barrier. The men in black were blown away one after another, spitting blood.

"A mere trifle." Jiang Qiong said in a cold tone. The golden light in his hand condensed again and turned into a golden dragon, rushing straight towards the man in black.

Wherever the golden dragon passed, the men in black were swallowed up one after another, and the screams stopped abruptly.

At this moment, a leader of the men in black suddenly appeared from the darkness, holding a black long sword in his hand, and a strange red light flashed on the blade.

He looked at Jiang Qiong with a cold gaze and sneered:

"who are you?"

"I advise you not to get involved in this mess, or you'll end up in trouble!"

Jiang Qiong's expression was still indifferent, but the aura of the Golden Core Realm was revealed, his eyes were as fast as lightning, and the golden light in his hand suddenly intensified, turning into a golden beam of light, directly hitting the leader of the men in black.

"Golden Core Realm Ancestor!"

Realizing Jiang Qiong's realm, the leader of the men in black was shocked. He gritted his teeth and swung his sword to block the golden light.

Unfortunately, Jiang Qiong's realm was too high. In the face of the powerful force of the golden light, the black-clothed leader's long sword instantly shattered, and his body was pierced by the golden light, and he fell to the ground and died.

It only takes one or two breaths anyway.

The battle was over, the evil spirit in the Zhao family mansion quickly dissipated, and the surroundings returned to peace.

Seeing this, the monks in the mansion showed excited expressions and walked out one by one, saying excitedly:

"Thank you, senior, for saving me!"

"You are Welcome."

Jiang Qiong nodded slightly and looked around, and found that there were many monsters and men in black hiding in the dark at a distance, waiting for an opportunity to strike.

He snorted coldly, and the spiritual power in his hands burst out again, transforming into sword energy, which quickly slashed towards the hidden enemies.

"what--"

With screams, the monsters and men in black hiding in the distance fell to the ground one after another, losing the power to resist.

Zhao Gui, the head of the Zhao family, also came over at this time. He was very excited and said with a cupped hand:

"Thank you for your kindness, Senior. The Zhao family has no way to repay you!"

The head of the An family then walked out of the mansion. He looked pale and looked at Jiang Qiong. He bowed deeply and said:
"Thank you for saving me, Senior. The An family is very grateful."

Jiang Qiong's eyes flickered slightly, and he said calmly: "The monsters are causing chaos, and everyone has the right to kill them."

While talking.

Jiang Qiong threw the previously captured man in black and the monster to the ground and said:
"I have left a few people alive. You can handle the rest by yourselves."

An Yiqi and An Jin nodded quickly, "Yes, senior!" Jiang Qiong smiled slightly, then turned around and prepared to leave.

However, at this moment, he suddenly sensed a powerful aura approaching rapidly.

He frowned slightly, raised his hand and waved it, and a barrier instantly appeared in front of everyone.

"boom--"

The next moment, there was a loud bang, and a black shadow slammed heavily into the barrier, making a deafening sound.

Everyone looked at the black shadow in astonishment. They saw that it was wearing a black robe and had a hideous face. It was obviously an extremely powerful monster.

"Another monster!"

An Jin exclaimed, her heart tightening involuntarily.

Jiang Qiong snorted coldly, his eyes were cold and a little surprised.

"Are there any more monsters that want to come and die?"

Jiang Qiong then raised his hand and waved it. A golden light instantly turned into a huge palm, which suddenly slapped towards the black-robed monster.

The black-robed monster was caught off guard and was hit hard by the giant palm. He let out a scream and then turned into a ball of black mist and dissipated in the air.

"What a terrifying spiritual power!"

"Is this the ancestor in the Golden Core Realm?"

The monks from the Zhao and An families were all amazed.

Jiang Qiong smiled faintly, not caring about it, and turned to leave.

However, before leaving, the head of the An family and Zhao Gui asked subconsciously out of courtesy: "Senior, you have helped us, and we are very grateful. May I ask if you would like to rest here for a while?"

"May I prepare a banquet to express my gratitude?"

Jiang Qiong shook his head and said slowly, "No, I still have things to do. I'll take my leave now."

Seeing this, everyone felt regretful, but they also knew that they couldn't force him to stay, so they all bowed and said, "Thank you, senior, take care!"

Jiang Qiong nodded, and when she left, she casually handed An Yiqi a seal.

This action made all the monks present slightly stunned.

"Senior, what is this?"

Even An Yiqi was confused. She took the seal with a puzzled look on her face, not understanding what Jiang Qiong was trying to do.

"I met a friend named Jiang Qiong back then, and he once mentioned you to me."

"If I remember correctly, your name is An Yiqi. Leaving this seal here will protect you in times of crisis."

"Just think of it as the protective seal that Jiang Qiong asked me to give you."

Jiang Qiong casually condensed a spiritual mark and handed it to An Yiqi, then his figure flashed and completely disappeared from everyone's sight.

"Jiang Qiong?"

When An Yiqi heard the name, she was slightly startled and subconsciously wanted to ask, but the next moment she saw Jiang Qiong walking away, and she couldn't help but show regret.

Watched the mysterious monk leave.

The An family members gathered around, and An Jin asked with a puzzled look on his face, "Yiqi, who is the fellow Daoist Jiang Qiong that Senior Jindan mentioned just now?"

"A fellow Taoist who worked in our family restaurant back then suffered damage to his foundation in order to save me."

An Yiqi spoke as her eyes were lost in reminiscence.

"This"

An Yiqi's words made both the An family head and An Jin feel a little embarrassed.

When the two saw that An Yiqi had some relationship with the friend that the Jindan Patriarch knew, they all showed joy on their faces and wanted to curry favor with her.

But when I heard it was Jiang Qiong, I suddenly remembered this person and couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed.

The head of the An family frowned slightly, thinking to himself: "Jiang Qiong's foundation was damaged in order to save Yiqi, but the family did not give him the necessary help. It was really a mistake."

While muttering, he sighed and looked regretful.

An Jin thought back to the past and felt a little guilty. She had strongly opposed giving Jiang Qiong the elixir to repair her Taoism foundation, believing that it was a waste of resources.

Now Jiang Qiong has a relationship with the ancestor in the Jindan realm, and the relationship seems to be pretty good.

When An Jin thought of this, he felt mixed emotions and was filled with regret.

"Yiqi." The head of the An family spoke slowly, with a hint of apology in his tone, and said: "It was our fault back then. We did not help fellow Daoist Jiang Qiong in time."

"We can't make the same mistake again. Don't worry, the family will fully support you and will never let you suffer any grievances again."

An Jin also nodded and agreed: "Yes, Yiqi, we will do our best to make up for our past mistakes."

"We will send someone to find out Jiang Qiong's whereabouts and try to find him as soon as possible to apologize to him and express our sincerity."

When An Yiqi heard this, her beautiful eyes flickered slightly. She did not say anything and remained silent, just clenched the seal in her hand.

Conversation room.

Zhao Gui, the head of the Zhao family, came over with a hint of apology on his face, "Head of the An family, Fellow Daoist An Jin, Miss Yiqi, today my Zhao family was not well prepared and frightened you all. Please forgive me."

The head of the An family smiled slightly and waved his hand, "Master Zhao, you are too polite. No one expected the sudden attack by the monster."

"We were able to escape danger today thanks to the help of the senior in the Jindan realm. We should all be grateful."

As he was talking, the head of the An family secretly sent a message to Zhao Gui: "Brother Zhao, the Zhao family originally intended to form an alliance with the An family, but now the situation has changed, I'm afraid it won't be possible."

Zhao Gui nodded and replied solemnly, "Brother An, don't mind. I also think that marriage should be based on the willingness of both parties."

The scene just now.

Everyone saw it and realized that An Yiqi might have some relationship with the Golden Pill Ancestor.

Therefore, Zhao Gui and the head of the An family did not dare to offend the Jindan Patriarch, and they all tacitly refused the marriage proposal of An Yiqi.

We talked briefly.

Zhao Gui used the excuse of having something to do, turned around and walked into the mansion, found Zhao Bo, brought him into the main house, and said:

"Pearl, come here."

Zhao Po walked over with a puzzled look on his face. He saw his father communicating with the head of the An family in secret and vaguely guessed something in his heart.

He frowned and asked in a bad tone, "Father, when you just sent a message to the head of the An family, are you going to cancel the marriage with the An family?"

Zhao Gui nodded and said calmly but firmly, "Yes."

"You also saw what happened today. That Jindan realm ancestor has a close relationship with Miss An Yiqi. Our Zhao family has neither the ability nor the capital to get involved."

Zhao Bo's face instantly turned pale when he heard this, and he said angrily: "Father, how can you change your decision because of an outsider? Our Zhao family has always been on good terms with the An family. Wouldn't it be a joke to do this?"

Zhao Gui sighed, patted Zhao Po's shoulder, and said earnestly: "Po'er, this is not something we can control."

"That senior is far more powerful than us. If we offend him, the consequences will be disastrous. Our Zhao family must put the overall situation first and not lose sight of the big picture."

Although Zhao Bo was dissatisfied, he also knew that what his father said made sense.

He gritted his teeth, and finally lowered his head helplessly, saying: "I understand, father."

Zhao Gui felt relieved when he saw that his son finally understood. (End of this chapter)
