I Just Won't Play by the Book - Chapter 308
308 Disciple Is Really Afraid of Trouble (2)
“I’m afraid…However, I know that this matter started because of me, so I…”
“I couldn’t tell. He’s quite responsible.”After praising Jiang Beiran, Lu Yinlong pondered for a moment and said,””So, Lin Yuyan’s rage this time was because she missed you?”
“Disciple…That’s indeed my guess.”
Lu Yinlong fell silent again after hearing Jiang Beiran’s explanation. Everything made sense now, but this matter seemed to be heading towards another kind of trouble.
A moment later, Lu Yinlong stepped forward and patted Jiang Beiran’s shoulder.””Beiran, how much do you know about Lin Yuyan?”
!!
“Other than the fact that she is a disciple of Mo Yu Hall, I don’t know anything else.”
“She never revealed her identity to you?”
“No, I haven’t.” Jiang Beiran shook his head again.
“It suits her personality.” Lu Yinlong sighed, turned around and continued,””I can only say that your decision is not wrong. If you were to be with Lin Yuyan, the resistance you will encounter will be extremely huge.”
After saying that, Lu Yinlong suddenly turned around and stared at Jiang Beiran.””Kid, are you afraid of trouble, so you’re keeping him a thousand miles away?”
As soon as Lu Yinlong finished speaking, three more options popped up.
[Choice 1:”Disciple just doesn’t want to hinder Junior Sister Lin’s future.” [[Completion Reward: Locust Rain Demon Book (Mysterious Level Mid-Rank)]
[Option 2:”Yes.” [Completion Reward: Random Basic Attribute Point +1]
“Sure.”
After going through the two options, Jiang Beiran suddenly felt that he had a better understanding of Lu Yinlong’s temperament and also understood how to communicate with him in the future.
After choosing the second option, Jiang Beiran nodded and said,””Yes.”
“Hahahahahahaha.”
Lu Yinlong laughed out loud.
” Jiang Beiran, oh Jiang Beiran, I take back what I said just now. You haven’t changed at all, hahahaha…”
[Mission completed. Reward: Agility +1]
After laughing for a while, Lu Yinlong shook his head,””So you don’t want to accept Lin Yuyan, but you don’t dare to reject her directly?”
“Sect Master is wise.”
‘Tsk, I still need you to remind me…The first time I met her, I knew I was in big trouble!’
After lampooning in his heart, Jiang Beiran cupped his fists and said,””I will remember Sect Master’s lesson.”
“Alright, let’s go back first.” As Lu Yinlong was about to grab Jiang Beiran’s shoulder, he suddenly paused.” Since this was caused by Lin Yuyan’s longing for you, then when you return to Ningdu, wouldn’t it be…” Why don’t I think of a way to send Lin Yuyan…”
Without waiting for the Sect Master to finish, Jiang Beiran hurriedly waved his hand and said,””Thank you for your kind intentions, Sect Master, but there’s no need. In the future, this disciple will return to the sect every other day.”
“Look at how scared you are.” Lu Yinlong laughed.” But are you serious? I don’t think you’ve come back much these past few months.”
“Now that I have basically sorted out the government and the people, I don’t need to keep an eye on those officials every day like before.”
“Not bad, you’re indeed very suited to doing things that require brains. Moreover, when there are benefits, you’re the first to think of the Returning Heart Sect and not the Masked Moon Sect.”
“Sect Master’s words are killing me. This disciple is a member of the Returning Heart Sect in life and a ghost of the Returning Heart Sect in death. My heart has always been for the sect. How could I…”
“Alright, alright. Even if you don’t show your loyalty like this, I won’t treat you unfairly after the matter is done.”
Lu Yinlong grabbed Jiang Beiran’s shoulder and flew back to Sky Cloud Peak.
Back at the Sect Master’s Residence, Jiang Beiran continued to discuss the details with the other higher-ups of the sect. Two days passed in a flash.
“Hu…” Sitting in front of a table full of papers, Left Prime Minister Gu Yi let out a long sigh of relief.
“If that’s the case, we don’t know if this matter will succeed, but it’s indeed worth a try.”
Right Prime Minister Bai Anfu nodded and said,””That’s true. Bei Ran, if you stop being the Emperor one day, I can be considered to have a successor.”
Jiang Beiran, who was buried in his book, raised his head and said,””You flatter me, Senior Prime Minister. Without your help, my plan would only be a castle in the air.”
“Hahaha!” White Fan Zhu Qiyi folded his fan and stood up,””It’s a waste of talent to be the Right Prime Minister. If you’re willing, I can even give you my position as the White Fan.”
“Everyone, don’t flatter me. The plan is already complete, but there are still many difficulties in implementing it. When the time comes, I will need your help.”
Zhu Qiyi nodded.” Of course. The sect master has already asked us to help you with all our strength. It’s only right for us to help you.””
Gu Yi closed the previous booklet and looked up.”The first step of this plan is to convince those families. Although the sect master’s order is enough for them to carry out the plan, I’m afraid that those dogs won’t do their best and will just brush us off.”
After spending the past few days with Gu Yi, Jiang Beiran understood that it was not easy for the Left Minister, who had to deal with his subordinate clans frequently. It was true that the clan leaders followed the sect’s lead, but they were also very intelligent people. They would not give up until they saw the rabbit.
“Those clan leaders, let me speak to them.”
Zhu Qiyi opened the folding fan with the landscape painting and said with a smile,””We were waiting for you to say that. We have seen your ability to plan, but just like you said, a good plan is just a castle in the air. Only with strong execution ability can you truly control the overall situation.”
“Then this disciple will go and find the sect master first. After that, I will go and discuss with the few clan leaders.”
Zhu Qiyi nodded.” Alright, you go ahead. The three of us will continue to polish this plan and see if there are any details that can be changed.””
“Then I’ll have to trouble the three of you.” Jiang Beiran bowed to the three of them, then walked out of the White Fan Mansion and headed toward Tianyun Peak.
As Jiang Beiran had said that he would give a reply within the next two days, Lu Yinlong had not gone out. The moment Jiang Beiran arrived, the two of them started chatting in the middle of the hall.
“You want to meet all the clan leaders at once?”Lu Yinlong asked as he held his teacup.
“Yes.” Jiang Beiran nodded.” I think it’s better for us to work together for such a large-scale change. If any of the clan leaders are dissatisfied or have any suggestions, you can bring them up for discussion.””
“Is that so?” Lu Yinlong smiled and glanced at Jiang Beiran.”I see that you want the minority to obey the majority, so that those stubborn minority won’t be too troublesome.”
“Sect Master is wise.” Jiang Beiran cupped his hands.
“Alright, then let’s do as you say. I’ll take charge of this matter and call them over for you.”After Lu Yinlong finished speaking, he picked up the teacup and took a sip. Suddenly, as if he had thought of something, he said,”The Lin family of the Punan Prefecture is the leader of the three towns. If you can convince them, you will have control of the area in Punan Prefecture.”
‘The old man is really bad…’
Looking at Lu Yinlong’s teasing gaze, Jiang Beiran naturally knew that Lin Yuyan was from the Lin family.
However, Jiang Beiran was certain that the head of the Lin family was not Lin Yuyan’s father. Otherwise, how could a small family be worthy of being Lu Yinlong’s relative?
“Thank you for your reminder, Cult Master.”
“Also, all the big families basically have juniors in the sect. Later, I will give you a list of names. You can take a look.”
“Thank you, Sect Master.”
“It’s nothing. By the way, have you been to the Water Mirror Hall these few days?”
Jiang Beiran was stunned by the Sect Master’s sudden question. Because of the Masked Moon Sect incident, the Sect Master had found out about Shi Fenglan’s bestowment of armor.
If it was only a one-sided incident, Lu Yinlong would not have felt anything. However, now that Lin Yuyan was involved, Lu Yinlong’s suspicions could not help but jump again.
However, Jiang Beiran did not hide anything every time he answered, which made Lu Yinlong feel that this kid was just lucky.
