g Yun also raised his hand, directly punching towards the bolt of lightning."Boom!"In the midst of a thunderous roar, that primordial thunderbolt vanished in an instant. Yet Jiang Yun remained unscath...At this moment, standing before Kong Benchu and his two companions was still Jiang Yun, but his appearance, his voice, even the aura he emanated, were all completely different!

Because, he had already become the eldest son of the Kong family—Kong Wushang!

It's obvious that Jiang Yun is going to impersonate Kong Wushang and challenge Guan Zhifei!

Jiang Yun was skilled in the art of shapeshifting, and with his astonishing memory and the obvious advantage of being unscathed, it wasn't difficult for him to transform himself into Wu Shang.

As for the three members of the Kong family, seeing Jiang Yun's face now, which was incredibly familiar to them, although they knew it was fake, each one couldn't help but tremble slightly, too excited to speak.

In the end, Kong Benchu was the first to regain his composure. He took a deep breath, clasped his hands together, and bowed directly to Jiang Yun with all his might, saying word by word: "Fellow Daoist Jiang, this kindness, the Kong family will never forget!"

The relationship between Jiang Yun and Wu Shang is only that of fellow disciples!

Before that, he helped the Kong family fight against Tianze, and then led the Kong family members to safety in the Zhenyuan Dao Realm. As fellow disciples, what Jiang Yun has done for the Kong family is already the utmost benevolence and righteousness.

Therefore, even if Ginger Cloud were to let go of the Kong family's affairs now, no one could say a word against her.

However, despite knowing that the Five Elements Dao Sect was involved, Jiang Yun was still willing to help the Kong family. For the Kong family, this was not just a life-saving grace, but a saving of the clan!

More importantly, Ginger pretended to be Kong Wu Shang and dealt with Guan Zhi Fei on behalf of the Kong family. If this were to be exposed, it would bring him great trouble, even potentially putting his life at risk.

Therefore, Kong Benchu should thank Jiang Yun properly.

Kōngxuéhǎi and Kōngmèng also thought of this, hurriedly bowing deeply to Jiāngyún as well.

Jiang Yun smiled faintly: "I accept your thanks, but just this once!"

"Yes, yes, yes!" Kong Xuehai nodded repeatedly, but his face was one of hesitation.

Jiang Yun's eyesight was so keen that he saw through it at a glance and directly said, "Master Kong, if you have any further questions, please speak your mind."

"Then I'll just say it!" Kong Xuehai hesitated for a moment and said: "Fellow Daoist Jiang becoming unscathed like this, indeed is something even I can't see the slightest flaw in. But there's just one thing..."

Hearing this, Ginger Cloud already understood. He spread out his palm and opened all five fingers.

"Gold, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth!"

Next, with every word Ginger Cloud uttered, a corresponding elemental object would rise above one of his fingertips.

As soon as he finished speaking those five words, five distinct elements materialized on each of his five fingers.

Finally, Jiang Yun's palm clenched suddenly, then opened again. In his palm, the five elemental objects came together as one, transforming into a small wheel that spun continuously.

"This is the Five Elements Transforming Dao technique that Wushang used back then. It amazed me greatly, so I memorized it!"

"I wonder if Master Kong still has any questions"

Kong Xuehai and the three others' eyes were wide with astonishment.

Kǒng xué hǎi's biggest concern is this!

Although Ginger Cloud had become Kong Wushang, on the outside, there was not a single flaw. However, everyone knows that Kong Wushang is the genius of the Kong family and, together with Kong Guan's families, the only one who can cultivate all five elements at the same time.

Since Jiangyun wants to challenge Guan Zhifei as Kong Wushang, he naturally has to possess the power of the Five Elements as well. Otherwise, how could he possibly deceive Zong Bai and the others

Now, this seemingly simple demonstration by Jiang Yun completely dispelled Kong Xuehai's worries.

原來，薑雲竟然也擁有五種屬性的力量。

Kǒng xué hǎi let out a long breath and said, “I have no more problems!”

"Alright then, everyone remember, from now on, I'm not Jiang Yun, but Kong Wu-Shang, who has lived through it all and returned safely!"

With Jiang Yun transforming into Kong Wujiang's appearance, the urgent problem of the Kong family was finally resolved.

Four people discussed for a while and finally decided to set the competition venue at Kong's house after. Only then did Kong Meng bring Jiang Yun to rest by using the teleportation array.

And Kong Benchu and Kong Xuehai began to gather some elders from their family, telling them about today's events so that everyone would be mentally prepared.

However, none of them mentioned anything about Ginger Cloud.

Because Kong Benchu was worried that someone in the Kong family today would be bought by Guanjia.

If the news leaks, not only will the Kong family be plunged back into danger, but Jiang Yun will also be implicated.

In this way, Kong Xuehai spent the entire day working until everything was done.

After sitting in his own room for a while, Kong Xuehai stood up again and found Kong Benchu.

Seeing that Kong Xuehai still had a trace of worry on his face, Kong Benchu frowned and said without politeness, "Xuehai, you need to know that you are the head of our Kong family. Anyone in our Kong family can be worried and sad, but you cannot!"

Kong Xuehai hurriedly bowed and said, "The teachings of the ancestor are indeed profound! But, ancestor, I'm still a little uneasy in my heart."

Kǒngběn chū said faintly, “You don’t trust Jiāng Yún, do you”

"Yes!" Kong Xuehai nodded. "I always felt that Jiang Yun's appearance was a bit too coincidental."

"Ancestor, do you think Jiangyun came for the Fire Spirit Pearl too"

After a moment of silence, Kong Benchu sighed and said, “Our Kong family is facing a life-or-death crisis. Then Jiang Yun suddenly appeared, and he wholeheartedly helped us without asking for anything in return. This does raise some suspicions.”

But even if Jiang Yun came for the Fire Spirit Orb, I ask you, are you willing to die guarding the Fire Spirit Orb and wait for the Kong family's destruction, or are you willing to give the Fire Spirit Orb to Jiang Yun in exchange for the continuation of the Kong family's incense

"This…" Kong Xuhai was stunned for a moment, his mouth opened and closed as he didn't know how to answer.

"Learning is vast, though one should always be wary of others, it's also important to consider the situation. As for my Kong family, we don't really have much to lose at this point."

"As long as Ginger Cloud can help our Kong family get through this crisis, then even if he really asks for the Fire Spirit Pearl, we will give it to him!"

Moreover, this is still the worst-case scenario we imagined. In my opinion, Ginger Cloud should not be the kind of person I think he is.

Ginger said that Wu Shang once pursued two powerful figures single-handedly just to avenge him. Even if you don't believe your own judgment, at least you should believe Wu Shang's eyesight!

“Most importantly, Ginger Cloud, is incredibly loyal!”

Kǒng Běn Chū clearly remembered the words Jiāng Yún said to Báizé when they parted ways!

As a Spirit Refiner, even a demon like Jiang Yun, could be considered family by Lian Yao Shi. He would go to any lengths to protect them. So, it wouldn't be impossible for him to help the Kong family out of a sense of brotherhood.

After hearing Kong Benchu's words, Kong Xuehai, although still had some doubts in his heart, they had faded much. He nodded and said, "Ancestor, I understand, and I know what to do!"

……

In the room that Kong Jia had specially arranged for her, Jiang Yun held the spirit-taming pen that Lu Xiaoyu had given her.

Although he and Byakuzetsu had been apart for quite some time, this was the first time in so many days that he found himself alone. As a result, a strange hollowness filled his heart, and he found himself missing Byakuzetsu's voice, with its slightly neurotic tinge.

Although there were other monster races within this enchanted brush, and with Jiang Yun's current strength, he could easily communicate with them, Jiang Yun did not have such thoughts.

Looking at the Refining Demon Pen, Jiang Yun's thoughts drifted back to the Shanhai Realm involuntarily. One familiar face after another appeared in his mind, and he murmured, "Are you all well"

Youyou sighed softly, Jiang Yun put away the Refining Demon Pen, his divine sense swept over Mu Shaofeng and Xue Qing who were shrouded in the dark clouds. The expression on his face had returned to calm, and he slowly closed his eyes.

Three days passed in the blink of an eye!
