Chapter 260: Chapter 260: Xuandu Jade Stone Conference (3)

Guh Siqing felt a great shock in her heart. This man was supposed to be without Inner Breath, so why did she feel so uncomfortable under his gaze!

Upon seeing An Zhihang, An Yiqing’s previously indifferent and icy demeanor vanished, and she smiled sweetly, "Big brother!"

"Little sister," An Zhihang doted as he ruffled An Yiqing’s hair and gently said, "Big brother has arrived late, I’m sorry."

"Don’t say that, I haven’t been wronged." The girl gently shook her head, affectionately hooking An Zhihang’s arm.

The affectionate gesture between the siblings caught everyone by surprise. They secretly pondered, so this girl was none other than the beloved daughter of the Xuandu City An Family, missing for nineteen years! No wonder she had the capital to be arrogant. Inevitably, everyone compared An Yiqing with Guh Siqing, concluding that whether in terms of personality, appearance, or demeanor, An Yiqing was far ahead of Guh Siqing!

With her Initial Stage of Great Achievement, Guh Siqing had excellent hearing and could clearly make out the hushed whispers of the people around her. When she heard others think she couldn’t compare to An Yiqing, her face darkened even more, and she coldly said, "Young Master An, what did you mean by your words just now? Could it be that the An Family wishes to oppose the Gu Family!"

Guh Siqing’s words elevated An Zhihang’s actions to the level of a family feud, which made everyone inwardly scorn her.

An Zhihang looked at Guh Siqing with contempt, elegantly touched the cufflink on his suit, and leisurely said, "Second Miss Guh, this matter was instigated by Guh Ruoyao first, so should the beloved daughter of the An Family have to swallow her grievances silently just for a branch of the Guh Family? If you insist on bringing the families into this, then I might as well ask the Old Master Guh what it means for a daughter of a Guh Family Branch to mock and belittle the legitimate daughter of the An Family!"

An Zhihang’s words were sensible; Guh Siqing’s face stiffened, and she had nothing to retort. Knowing that the An Family was protective of their own, she fully believed An Zhihang would take this matter to Old Master Guh, and she would be the one to get scolded.

Taking a deep breath, Guh Siqing gave the An siblings a cold look, proudly lifted her chin, and turned to leave.

Following behind her, Guh Ruoyao, unwilling to give up, stamped her foot and hurriedly followed. Guh Siqi, who had been silent, looked at An Yiqing with great interest; he smirked mischievously and walked away.

After the members of the Guh left, An Yiqing and An Zhihang also departed the Dark Bid Area for the auction hall.

"Little sister, if Guh Ruoyao and Guh Siqing ever bully you, fight back without hesitation. Our family might not be one of the Ancient Martial Arts Families, but our status is deep-rooted, and Old Master Guh wouldn’t dare act rashly," An Zhihang, fearing his sister might have been wronged, cautioned worriedly.

An Yiqing nodded with a smile and said cheerfully, "Don’t worry, big brother, your little sister isn’t one to suffer in silence. Besides, even though our family isn’t one of the Ancient Martial Arts Families, I still have the entire Medicine Sect behind me. You don’t need to worry."

An Zhihang slapped his forehead with realization and exclaimed, "Look at my memory, I forgot you had Elder Ye behind you. Little sister, what’s going on with the Medicine Sect? Ever since Elder Ye retired from the martial world over ten years ago, the Medicine Sect has gradually withdrawn from worldly affairs."

Recalling the glory of the Medicine Sect from over twenty years prior, An Zhihang was filled with awe—even though he had only heard about it from his elders. Ye Chenghong made a name for himself at a young age, his Medical Arts were unparalleled, he was warm-hearted, and his sense of chivalry was well-known. Decades ago, he was a respected figure throughout Xuandu and even Xuanjin, but unexpectedly one day, he announced his retirement, and with him, the Medicine Sect gradually faded into obscurity.
