"What do you want?" The members of the Liu family, facing the two encroaching families, tightened and retreated.

The onlookers, who had been watching, deliberately or unintentionally distanced themselves from the Liu family, slowly shifting their steps and moving closer to the Zhang family.

The world was this realistic: the winner takes all, the loser is vanquished.

"Yang Kun!"

"Zhao Tai!"

When the Liu family had nowhere left to retreat and were surrounded by the disciples of the two great families, Liu Qiang said with a sinister face, "My sister is the wife of the Black Eagle Prefecture Lord. If anything happens to our Liu family, the Black Eagle Prefecture won't let you go."

"Liu Qiang..." Yang Kun shook his head and said with a smile, "You're still being arrogant. If the Black Eagle Prefecture could protect you, would they have left in such a sorry state?"

"Yang Kun!" Liu Qiang's face contorted in rage, "Do you think I'm joking? If anything happens to us today, you will all be buried with us."

"Is that so?" Yang Kun snorted coldly, "Then I'll be waiting."

"Come on!"

The next second, Yang Kun's killing intent flared, "All members of the Liu family, kill without mercy."

"Yes, sir!"

The disciples of the two great families had long harbored dissatisfaction towards the Liu family. Their eyes glinted with cold light, and their Profound Energy surged, charging towards the Liu family disciples.

As one of the three major powers in Soaring Dragon City, the Liu family struggled to face even one of them alone, let alone two joining forces. How could they resist?

Liu Qiang never expected that the outcome would be this.

Whoosh~

There was no other way; they could only fight to the death, or they would all perish here.

Just as the Liu family was fighting with their backs against the wall, a whistling sound descended from the sky, accompanied by an oppressive aura.

Before the disciples of the two great families could charge forward, they were sent flying back by this oppressive aura. The strong wind caused everyone to sway.

The sudden turn of events stunned the entire audience. Yang Kun and the others frowned again, looking up at the sky. At this moment, an icy voice rang out, "The three great families are getting more and more ambitious. You dare to involve disciples of our Black and White Academy in your disputes. Who gave you the right?"

In the dim sky, a woman in white was floating in the air, her icy eyes looking down at everyone.

Her beauty was unparalleled, with a snow-white complexion, ruby lips, and skin like ice and bones. She was exquisitely beautiful, yet cold and sacred, like a fairy from the moon palace descending from the sky, or an aloof and unblemished Tianshan ice lotus.

Although her face could be clearly seen, it made people feel a sense of daze, as if they were breathing in the aura of an immortal. Her beauty was dreamlike, leaving everyone stunned.

Wind element cultivation technique?

Yang Kun narrowed his eyes. The woman in the air was clearly floating without any assistance from Profound Artifacts. Being able to do this meant she had cultivated some profound wind element cultivation technique.

"It's her?" Qin Jishi's forehead creased.

"The Chief Disciple of the Black and White Academy?" As Zhao Tai scanned the black and white patterns on the woman's clothes, his entire body tensed, and his eyes flashed with deep apprehension.

"What?" Yang Kun's expression changed as he also noticed this.

The Chief Disciple of the Black and White Academy? That was a position of extremely high status, and she was the leader of the geniuses in the Black and White Academy.

Let alone them, if Sun Baitan were here, he would have to show her utmost respect.

The status of the Black and White Academy on the Azure Wave Continent was known even to three-year-old children. It was undoubtedly the foremost power, and no other force dared to offend them.

"You know her?" Zhang Shiqing's eyebrows twitched. She could tell that Qin Jishi's expression had changed slightly.

"We've met once," Qin Jishi replied softly. "Liang Simeng, the daughter of the Saint Domain's Liang Family, a martial artist of the Earth Fiend Realm, and the Chief Disciple of the Black and White Academy."

Saint Domain's Liang Family?

Hearing Qin Jishi's words, Zhang Shiqing's expression involuntarily showed a trace of reverence.

"So it's Chief Disciple Liang from the Black and White Academy. This is Zhang Shiqing of the Zhang Family. I pay my respects to Chief Disciple Liang here. It is truly fortunate to witness your esteemed presence today."

Hearing Zhang Shiqing utter the words "Black and White Academy," everyone was instantly stunned, their throats letting out a synchronized gulp.

They had never imagined that they would one day witness the presence of the Chief Disciple of the Black and White Academy.

No wonder this woman had such an extraordinary and refined temperament, natural beauty, and captivating appearance. It turned out she was the Chief Disciple of the Black and White Academy. They all felt a sense of awe.

The Chief Disciple of the Black and White Academy, let alone them, even forces from the Azure Wave Imperial Capital would have to show utmost respect.

"Chief... Chief Disciple Liang..." Liu Qiang reacted, as if he had grasped a life-saving straw, "You... you must uphold justice for us."

"I am aware of the circumstances," Liang Simeng said with a cold brow. "Your Liu family bullied others with your influence and ended up losing more than you gained. By rights, I shouldn't interfere in this matter. However, Liu Kai has been accepted as a disciple by our Black and White Academy. For his sake, I will resolve this matter."

"Th-thank you, Chief Disciple Liang..." Liu Qiang nudged Liu Kai beside him, "Why are you still standing there? Hurry up and thank Chief Disciple Liang."

"Ah~"

Liu Kai snapped out of his daze from her stunning beauty. "Th-thank you, Chief Disciple Liang..."

In Liu Qiang's mind, as long as they survived this ordeal, he would never let those present off the hook. At that time, he would personally go to the Azure Wave Imperial Capital and implore his sister to step forward and crush all the forces that opposed them.

Liang Simeng ignored them and looked forward. "Patriarchs of the two families, Yang Xuan and Zhao Xiong are also disciples of our Black and White Academy. Although there were reasons for this incident, I will not show favoritism to either side. Liu Kai's Yang Vein was crippled, rendering him unable to have children, which can be considered a fitting punishment. Let this matter end here, turning a major issue into a minor one, and a minor issue into nothing."

If anyone else had said this, Yang Kun would not have given them any face. However, the Black and White Academy was different. Behind them was the Saint Domain's Liang Family. Although they had the World-Saving Pavilion and were not afraid of the Saint Domain's Liang Family, Yang Kun alone could not make such a major decision. He needed Qin Jishi's approval.

As long as Qin Jishi agreed, let alone the Black and White Academy, even the Saint Domain's Liang Family, Yang Kun would dare to confront them head-on.

Seeing that the two remained silent, Liang Simeng said coldly, "Patriarchs of the two families, is this matter difficult to handle?"

"This!" Yang Kun tilted his head slightly, glancing at Qin Jishi with a questioning look.

This action was fully observed by Liang Simeng, and her dark eyebrows furrowed.

He's asking Qin Jishi?

Liang Simeng had long known that Qin Jishi was a live-in son-in-law of the Zhang Family; after all, nothing could be hidden from someone of her standing.

In her opinion, Qin Jishi was undoubtedly trash, and becoming a live-in son-in-law for the Zhang Family was the best choice. Spending his life in a city like Soaring Dragon City was a blessing for him.

But Yang Kun's action puzzled her greatly.

"Miss!" Tang Yan, seeing Liang Simeng's confusion, said softly, "According to the Myriad Treasures Tower's investigation, Yang Kun entered the World-Saving Pavilion ten years ago to extend his life."

So that's it!

Liang Simeng nodded. "No wonder Yang Kun intervened. I suppose he's doing so because they both spent time at the World-Saving Pavilion."

Thinking this, Liang Simeng gently shook her head and moved towards Qin Jishi.

Huh?

Everyone blinked rapidly, seemingly unable to believe their eyes.

Chief Liang is actually walking towards Qin Jishi. Do they know each other?
