I Just Won't Play by the Book - Chapter 178
Chapter 178 Plan B 1
At the evening, the disciples of the Ye family finished their cultivation and were resting.
“Brother Ye Fan, let’s go to the back mountain and practice our sword skill.” As soon as Ye Fan stood up, Xin Dong’er ran over and asked sweetly.
Although the Ye family was a family, they did not only teach their own juniors. Usually, they would also recruit some children with outstanding talent.
Hearing Xin Dong’er call him, Ye Gan shook his head and said, “I want to cultivate alone.” Without waiting for Xin Dong’er to speak, a man wearing a dark green golden crane cloak turned his head and said disdainfully, “Humph, you don’t know how to appreciate favors. How dare you put on airs. You piece of trash.”
Standing on the tree and observing the current situation, Jiang Beiran could not help but smile. “That’s more right it, keep going!”
Ye Fan glanced at the man. His eyes filled with anger.
“What? Did I say something wrong? It’s all your fault that our Ye family has lost so much face. Now, I’m too embarrassed to go out and drink.”
Xin Dong’er immediately stood in front of Ye Fan and shouted, “Ye Yong! I think you’re just embarrass to show your face in the opera house.”
Ye Yong immediately smiled and said, “Why would I go to such a place? Dong’er, don’t listen to other people’s nonsense.”
“Humph, you know whether you’re going or not. Brother Ye Fan, Let’s go.”
As Xin Dong’er spoke, she pulled Ye Fan and walked into the depths of the forest.
Standing on the tree and watching this corny drama, Jiang Beiran could not help but shake his head. He did not know whether this Dong’er wanted to help her Brother Ye Fan, or harm him.
“This trash!” Ye Yong cursed fiercely. He signaled to his companions with his eyes and walked into the forest.
“Tsk, men will always fight for the beauties.”
Xin Dong’er looked like a beauty in a painting, yet she still expressed her love for Ye Fan so obviously. Wasn’t this digging a grave for Ye Fan, who was already at the edge of the storm.

“Follow me.”
After saying this to Wu Qingce, Jiang Beiran chased after Ye Fan.
“Brother Ye Fan, just ignore them. Come, let’s practice the sword.”
Looking at Xin Dong’er who was concerned about him, Ye Fan sighed and said, “I don’t want to practice the sword today.”
“Alright, then we won’t practice the sword and do what you want to do.”
“What I want to do?” Ye Fan looked at his hands and could not help but feel a sense of powerlessness.
When he first started cultivating three years ago, he relied on his outstanding talent to quickly surpass his peers. Before many people had yet to condense mystic energy, he had already broken through to the level 2 qi refining realm and was hailed as the Ye family’s strongest genius in the past hundred years.
However, after he advanced to the level 3 qi refining realm like a hot knife through butter, he was unable to advance no matter how hard he tried. He could easily absorb the spiritual Qi of heaven and earth on a daily basis. But now, he suddenly become a good-for-nothing who could not sense the spiritual energy at all.
His father, who was in the mystic spirit realm, had gone around to seek medical treatment for him. However, the people who tried to cure him all expressed that they did not know what was going on.
Therefore, people ridiculed him as “fallen genius” and “short-lived wonder boy” and so on.
The few cousins who had a good relationship with him in the past did not intend to comfort him. Instead, they took the lead to mock him.
Looking at the faces of these people, the young Ye Fan fell into a daze.
“Are these people all so mean and snobbish? Perhaps it’s because they once showed me the humblest smile, so now they want to take it back…”
With a bitter smile, Ye Fan decided to stop interacting with the disciples in the family. That lonely figure seemed to be so out of place with the surrounding world.
“Dong’er, I think Ye Fan doesn’t want to do anything. He’s just waiting for death.”
At this moment, Ye Yong, who was following closely behind, walked up to Ye Fan and mocked him.
“Ye Yong! Why did you still follow me!” “Dong’er, I’m doing this for your own good. Ye Fan is now the target of public criticism in the family. If you keep hanging out with him, you’ll also be implicated.”
“Humph, what target of public criticism? I think you’re all just taking shot at Brother Ye Fan.” As she spoke, Xin Dong ‘er stood beside Ye Fan and said, “But it doesn’t matter. I’ll always be with Brother Ye Fan.”
“F*ck…” Jiang Beiran could not help but swear in his heart. This woman was trying to send Ye Fan to death.
As expected, after hearing Xin Dong’er’s words, Ye Yong became jealous. He pointed at Ye Fan and shouted, “Ye Fan, if you have the guts to fight with me! Don’t always hide behind women!”
As soon as Xin Dong’er heard it, she immediately stood in front of Ye Fan and said, “Just come at me. You can all attack together!”
Jiang Beiran used his mind power to scan Xin Dong’er’s cultivation after listening to her. He found that she was already at level 9 of qi refining realm, while Ye Yong and his brothers were only around level 6 of qi refining realm.
“Humph! Trash will always be trash. They only know how to hide behind women! Let’s go!” Ye Yong, who knew that he would not be able to win, waved his hand and left with his brothers.
After Ye Yong and the others left, Xin Dong ‘er stomped her feet and said, “These people are really shameless! They used to flatter you in the past, but now…”
Xin Dong’er was halfway through her words when she noticed Ye Fan’s disappointed expression. She quickly changed the topic and said, “Brother Ye Fan, why don’t we…”
“Dong’er,” Ye Fan called out.
“Huh?”
“Sorry, let me be alone for a while.”
“I…” Xin Dong’er wanted to say something, but in the end, she did not say it out. “Alright… Then I will leave first.”
