I Just Won't Play by the Book - Chapter 429

429 Chapter 280
“Aha! I have gathered seven Celestial Spirit Stones! I can summon the seven fairies to make a wish.”

Shi Fenglan shouted excitedly and slapped the seven resource cards on the table. The immortal spirit stones on the seven cards transformed at the same time and exploded with a dazzling light before turning into seven fairies of different forms.

“Please state your wish.” The seven fairies said at the same time.

At the same time, three options popped up.

!!
[Wish 1: Obtain 1,000 gold taels.]
[Wish 2: Upgrade by five levels. Completion Reward: ]

[Wish 3: Upgrade any two pieces of equipment. [Completion Reward: Random Basic Attribute Point +1]

As one of the most intense rewards in Jiang Beiran’s Immortal Cultivation simulation, although the Seven Fairy Maidens ‘wishes were limited in terms of options, the rewards were very generous regardless of which option they chose. It was enough to surpass other players by a large margin.

” Go!” shouted Fenglan, who had just fallen into a financial crisis, without hesitation.

“I want a thousand gold taels!”

“Alright, your wish has been fulfilled.”The seven fairies answered while playing their respective instruments.

Taking the ten gold notes from Jiang Beiran, Shi Fenglan could not help but pick them up and dance with joy.” We’re rich! We’re rich!”

Following that, Shi Fenglan relied on the huge advantage of one thousand taels of gold to snatch the materials and equipment that Jiang Beiran needed at high prices several times in the auction house.

” Haha! Little Bei Ran! Are you angry? Are you angry? I still have five hundred taels of gold!”

After snatching away another Nixia Saint Stone that Jiang Beiran wanted, Shi Fenglan was smiling happily.

With such a huge advantage, Shi Fenglan snowballed her way and finally defeated Jiang Beiran in one fell swoop.

Little Duo, on the other hand, was already holding her flower fairy, feeling dejected.

” Little Bei Ran, are you convinced? Isn’t this trick of mine very powerful?” Shi Fenglan said happily as she fiddled with her Chain Fairy.

“Yes, very powerful.” Jiang Beiran smiled and nodded.

“Hehe, I’ve even researched one. Quick, let’s take another gamble.”

“Ah ~” Shi Fenglan’s small face instantly drooped.”Why are you going out again? How long will you be gone this time?””

“I can’t say for sure.”

“Will it take a long time?”

“It shouldn’t be too long. If it’s more than a month, I’ll write to you.”

“Then it’s settled. If you forget to write a letter, I’ll… I’ll ignore you for seven days, no, three days!”

“Alright, then I have to go and inform the sect master and the others. I’ll be leaving first.”

Jiang Beiran said as he walked towards the door.

However, he had only taken two steps when he felt Shi Fenglan quietly following him. At the same time, two options lit up.

[Option 1: Turn around and look at Shi Fenglan. [Completion Reward: Silo Dark Art (Earth Grade Mid-Rank)]

[Option 2: Pretend not to know and continue walking forward. [Completion Reward: Random Basic Attribute Point +1]

“Hmm?”

Looking at the two options, Jiang Beiran was really confused.

” It’s a mid-level Earth Grade option after I turn around? What is she doing?

Unable to wrap his head around it, Jiang Beiran chose the second option and walked out of the main entrance. In the end, when he was leaving Tinglan Waterside Pavilion, he heard a system notification.

[Mission completed. Reward: Luck +1]

‘Fate?!’

Jiang Beiran was a little excited when he saw the word ” luck “. As a pitiful person who had been targeted by the Heavenly Axiom, Jiang Beiran felt that it was impossible for him to have luck. He could not rely on luck in this lifetime. He had to rely on the System to maintain his life.

But now, the system had actually started to reward him with luck.

‘Could it be that after my luck is high enough, the Heavenly Dao won’t target me so much?’

At the thought of this, Jiang Beiran couldn’t help but feel a little excited. At the same time, he was filled with anticipation for the rewards after the system upgrade.

After telling the other big shots that he would be leaving for a while, Jiang Beiran went to the pavilion outside Anliang Village.

Lin Yuyan was already waiting in the pavilion and had even prepared a table full of breakfast.

“Senior Brother, you’re here.” Lin Yuyan hopped out of the pavilion and greeted him,” I made a few breakfast dishes that you used to like. Have some first.””

Coincidentally, Jiang Beiran still had some questions for Lin Yuyan, so he nodded and said,””Alright, let’s sit down and eat together.”

” Ah, isn’t this what a husband says to his wife when he returns? I’m so blessed.’

Covering her blushing face, Lin Yuyan sat opposite Jiang Beiran.

Lin Yuyan felt happy as she watched her senior brother eat a piece of glutinous rice cake that he had made himself.

After another sip of soy milk, Jiang Beiran said,””This time, I will only help you find your aunt in the Qi Kingdom. But if your aunt really encounters any trouble, you must go back and inform your father immediately.”

“Yes.” Lin Yuyan smiled and nodded.

“In addition, after you arrive at the Qi Empire, I will give you three days to familiarize yourself with the various major factions in the Qi Empire. You must be able to answer my questions fluently.”

Because the Qi Kingdom was too different, Jiang Beiran did not dare to send Gu Qinghuan, who had done things appropriately, to investigate. Therefore, other than Lin Yuyan, who was a local, Jiang Beiran’s intelligence gathering was very lacking.

“Yes.” Lin Yuyan continued to smile and nod. At the same time, she sighed in her heart.
