Even if Yuan Lingshu and he weren't friends, Zhang Yun couldn't just stand by and watch such a kind girl die without helping her.
"Ling Shu, you've done enough. Leave the rest to me."
Without hesitation, Zhang Yun leaped onto the platform, his slender figure landing on Zhang Lun.
"What kind of skill is it to bully a little girl? If you've got guts, come at me!"
Zhang Erjiao's sudden act of standing up for Yuan Lingshu stunned everyone present.
Everyone present was well aware of the Zhang family's power and influence; there truly are people in this world who are not afraid of death.
That young man in black was truly fearless and naive.
Zhang Lun was stunned for a while before he reacted. Then, his eyes filled with disdain, and he sneered, "Zhang Erjiao, it's fine to be a hero and save a beauty, but you have to know your own limitations. I'll give you one chance. Get off the stage and I'll consider sparing your life!"
"Brother, quickly kill that bastard Zhang Erjiao and avenge Zhang Ling!"
Zhang Erjiao's sudden act of standing up for Yuan Lingshu was unexpected, but it was exactly what Zhang Hao wanted. His eyes flashed with murderous intent, and he shouted loudly at Zhang Lun, "This is a perfect opportunity to kill Zhang Erjiao!"
“Young master, we are complete strangers. There is no need for you to risk your life for me.”
Gazing at Zhang Yun's thin back, Yuan Lingshu vaguely felt that the back was somewhat familiar, very much like someone, but she was sure that she had never seen this person before.
However, the appearance of the boy in black also made Yuan Lingshu feel somewhat melancholy.
A stranger could go to such lengths for her, but look at your own family...
Yuan Lingshu's feelings at this moment were hard to describe.
Just then, Fang Qing, the Grand Elder of the outer sect of Jianglan Holy Temple, suddenly stepped out from the crowd and bowed slightly to Zhang Xiaotian.
“Patriarch Zhang, this man is named Zhang Erjiao. He is the murderer who brutally killed my newly accepted disciple Zhang Ling today. How about we hand him over to the Jianglan Holy Temple for disposal?”
These words caused an uproar in the audience.
The Grand Elder of the outer sect of Jianglan Holy Temple actually valued Zhang Ling's talent and took her as his disciple.
Even more unexpectedly, Zhang Ling was already dead, and she died at the hands of that unknown boy in black.
This is a major piece of news.
The young man in black was incredibly audacious, actually killing a member of the Zhang family on their territory and then brazenly attending the engagement banquet. His arrogance was boundless.
Could it be that the young man in black is someone of great importance, someone that even powerful forces like the Zhang family and the Jianglan Holy Temple cannot afford to offend?
Otherwise, the boy in black would undoubtedly be playing with his life.
Of course, Lin Ruoxue, who knew just how powerful Zhang Yun was, wasn't too worried about his safety, especially since Zhang Yun wasn't the kind of person to act rashly.
Zhang Tian wasn't too worried about Zhang Erjiao, because what Zhang Erjiao had said to him before made a lot of sense. Moreover, later events proved that his uncle hadn't blamed Zhang Erjiao too much. It would probably be difficult for the Jianglan Holy Temple to get people out of the Zhang family.
However, Zhang Xiaotian's response was beyond Zhang Tian's expectations.
"Yes, this young man is indeed a bit lawless. He is yours to deal with. As for whether he lives or dies, it has nothing to do with my Zhang family."
"Uncle, Zhang Erjiao has agreed to join the Zhang family. From now on, he's a member of the Zhang family, and his martial arts talent is undeniable..." (My body contains countless worlds...)
------------
Chapter 308 I, Zhang Yun, am back!
Zhang Tian had come to regard Zhang Erjiao as a brother from the bottom of his heart, and his expression was not good. He couldn't help but plead for Zhang Erjiao.
A cold gaze swept over him, and Zhang Xiaotian said angrily, "You useless idiot, shut up! If you say another word, you'll be tortured!"
Zhang Xiaotian's angry roar seemed to shake the heavens and earth, buzzing in Zhang Tian's ears. It was full of pressure and authority, causing Zhang Tian to swallow back the words he was about to say.
He didn't know why his uncle's attitude towards Zhang Erjiao had suddenly reversed, but he dared not say anything more.
Of the entire Zhang family, the only person he would fear is Zhang Xiaotian.
"If you want to deal with me, you'll have to see if you have the ability."
Zhang Yun put his hands behind his back, his expression unchanged. He didn't even take the Jianglan Holy Temple seriously, let alone the mere outer gate of the Jianglan Holy Temple.
Upon hearing this, everyone present wore somewhat strange expressions.
Could it be that this kid really has a terrifying force backing him up? Otherwise, how could he make such boastful remarks in front of Fang Qing, the Grand Elder of the Jianglan Holy Temple?
"Young Master Zhang, you'd better hurry, or it will be too late."
Seeing Zhang Erjiao being targeted by everyone, Yuan Lingshu's expression changed slightly. Today, it was enough for her to die alone; she didn't want to drag others down with her.
She was very clear about what it meant to face the Zhang family and the outer gate of the Jianglan Holy Temple.
“Ling Shu, do you still remember the jade pendant you gave me back in Yunwu Sect? I haven’t had a chance to return it to you yet.”
Zhang Yun remained calm and smiled back at Yuan Lingshu.
"Jade pendant?"
Yuan Lingshu was stunned for a moment.
Jade pendant?
What jade pendant?
