Chapter 1,250: The Guan Family's Array

couldn't utter a single word.Although other people's reactions weren't as intense as Guan Zhifei's, they were almost all equally shocked, staring dumbfoundedly at Jiang Yun."Who are you!"Just then, a..."Brother!"

Three days later, in the morning, Kong Meng's voice, as fresh and lively as ever, came from outside Jiang Yun's room.

Over the past three days, Kong Meng ran to Ginger Cloud's place several times a day. Their relationship grew closer and closer, even their way of addressing each other naturally shifted.

With the sound of the door opening, Jiang Yun's figure appeared before Kong Meng.

Looking at Jiang Yun, who was dressed in black and smiling, Kong Meng couldn't help but feel a moment of daze.

It seems that at this very moment, standing before me is truly my own brother, Kong Wujiang!

"What are you daydreaming about, get going!"

Jiang Yun smiled slightly, reached out and put on a black ghost mask over her face, obscuring her features.

And this was also something he had discussed with Kong Xuehai and the others, in order to avoid people discovering that Kong Wushang had returned before the competition against Guan Zhifei truly began.

As the familiar face was obscured by the mask, Kong Meng finally came to her senses. She playfully stuck out her tongue and made a silly face at Jiang Yun: "If one day, big brother really comes back, I'll have two big brothers."

Jiang Yun smiled and nodded. "Don't worry, there will definitely be such a day!"

……

About a hundred miles away from the Kong family's estate, there is a vast valley. This is where the Kong family has chosen as the location for their competition.

Now, within a thousand-mile radius of this valley, all territory has been completely sealed off by the Kong family.

And at the entrance of Gu's valley, it was where all members of the Kong family with cultivation above the Dao Spirit Realm were concentrated.

Each of their faces was etched with seriousness, but within that seriousness, a glimmer of anticipation shone through.

Kong Xuehai did not hide the fact that he had arranged a competition between Kong Jiajiang and Guan Zhifei from his family. After all, the outcome of the competition would affect the fate of the entire Kong family.

As a member of the Kong family, everyone naturally has the right to know!

But Kong Xuehai didn't tell them who from the Kong family was going to compete against Guan Zhifei!

No matter how you put it, after hearing this news, the Kong family was united as one. Everyone was eager to fight, wishing they could personally take on Guan Zhifei and defeat him.

However, they also know that Guan Zhifei's strength is absolutely beyond their reach.

So they were also very curious, among the younger generation of their Kong family, who was qualified to compete with Guan Zhifei and who could save their Kong family from this predicament.

Even among them, there were people who arrived three days ago, both anxious and expectant, waiting for the competition to begin!

Kōng Xuèhǎi, Kōng Běnchū, and some elders of the Kong family had also rushed over and gathered in the valley.

An elder couldn't hold back his curiosity any longer and looked at Kong Xuedao, "Patriarch, this time, who is our Kong family sending to battle You should tell us now, right"

His words were immediately echoed by several other elders.

"Yes, these past three days have been the longest of my life. I haven't felt like doing anything, just kept thinking about this. Master, the competition is about to begin. Please stop keeping me in suspense."

"You haven't told us who you're sending to fight, and we're always uneasy about it. You have to know, Guan Zhifei is incredibly skilled!"

To everyone's incessant inquiries, Kong Xuehai only smiled faintly and said: “Please all remain calm. You will know once the competition begins!”

Seeing that Kong Xuehai still refused to speak, someone else suggested: "Head of the family, should we set up some ambushes in this valley and take advantage of this opportunity to capture all the Guan family members in one fell swoop!"

Kong Xuehai said calmly: "No need, our Kong family has always acted openly and honestly. If we win, we will win with fairness and integrity. If we lose, we will lose with dignity!"

Although everyone's hearts were filled with anxiety, Kong Xuehai's composure and the two sentences he spoke had a certain soothing effect, calming them down considerably.

Besides, the competition was about to begin anyway, so everyone just stopped asking and waited patiently.

For Kong Xuhai's performance, Kong Benchu secretly nodded his head.

In fact, he knew better than anyone that Kong Xuehai was the most anxious and nervous person in the entire Kong family right now.

But as the head of the household, he must always maintain his composure and calmness!

Kong Xuehai was indeed deeply worried, his eyes constantly shifting and glancing towards the entrance of the valley.

Because until now, Jiangyun and Kongmeng have not appeared.

Although this was also part of their pre-arranged plan, Jiang Yun and Kong Meng were supposed to appear at the last moment, but he couldn't help but worry a little that Jiang Yun might back out at the last minute.

If that were the case, it would be a huge embarrassment for the Kong family.

Just when Kong Xuehai was worried, Kong Benchu suddenly spoke in a low voice: "Here they come!"

Two simple words, and the valley that was once somewhat boisterous fell silent. Everyone's eyes turned to the sky.

At first glance, a cold light flashed in Kong Xuehai's eyes, and his hands unconsciously clenched into fists.

The reason they chose this valley as the competition site was twofold: first, it was within the territory of the Kong family. If any unforeseen incidents occurred, the Kong family at least had the capability to handle them.

Secondly, it was also to protect the Kong family's face as much as possible. If Jiang Yun ultimately lost to Guan Zhifei, and the Kong family had to honor their promise, then at least not too many people would know about it.

However, at this very moment, countless figures appeared in the sky above, numbering at least several thousand if one looked around.

Besides a small portion who were Guan family members, the vast majority, surprisingly, came from renowned sects within several neighboring Dao realms!

Needless to say, these people were definitely invited by the Guan family.

And the purpose of Guan doing this was not only to win against Kong's family in the competition, but also to let everyone know!

Besides these people, Zong Bai was still beside Guan Peng, his eyes closed.

"Haha, thanks for waiting!"

Even before Guan Pengren arrived, his voice had already reached everyone's ears.

Looking at Guan Peng, who was beaming with delight, Kong Xuehai forced down the anger welling up inside him and gave a faint smile. "Nothing much, Brother Guan, your face is truly impressive! You've even invited so many friends and made such a big spectacle of it!"

Gu Peng's figure had already reached above the mountain valley, and with a hearty laugh, he said: "Brother Kong, you really overestimate me. I don't have that much ability to invite these Daoists."

They all came to admire the reputation of their predecessor, Zong, and specifically followed him to catch a glimpse of his demeanor.

Although Guan Peng's words were flattering Zong Bai, they weren't entirely untrue.

The identity of the Elder of the Five Elements Dao Sect is enough to make any force try their best to curry favor.

As they spoke, Guan Peng brought Guan Zhifei and the rest of the Guan family before Kong Xuehai, while the others remained suspended in mid-air and did not follow.

Of course, they came not only to watch the competition but also to prevent the Kong family from setting up any ambushes.

Guan Peng swept his gaze around and said, "Since we're all here, let's waste no time and begin the competition!"

Guanzhifei took a step forward and stood in the center of the valley, his gaze sweeping over all the Kong family members. He smiled arrogantly and said, “I wonder which member of the Kong family will come out to spar with Guan”

All the members of the Kong family looked at each other in stunned silence. No one dared to speak up.

Seeing this, Guan Peng raised an eyebrow and said: "What, Kong brother, are you playing with us Could it be that there isn't a single person in your Kong family who dares to fight Zhi Fei"

As Guan Peng's voice fell, the many cultivators above the mountain valley suddenly burst into laughter.

Kong Xuehai's face turned ashen. He just opened his mouth to speak, but a calm voice rang out from within: "Me!"
