[Option 1: Continue to ask for the solution. [Completion Reward: 60-Element Devil Palm (Mysterious Grade High-Rank)]
[Choice 2:”That’s really weird. “[Completion Reward: Seven-colored Divine Art
(Mysterious Grade Mid-Rank)]
[Option 3:”Sect Master, just say that you guessed that it was my idea.””[Completion Reward: Random Basic Attribute Point +1]
“Oh.”
Even though Jiang Beiran could tell from Lu Yinlong’s tone that he was hinting at something, it was most likely just a guess.
However, the system told him to show his cards, which meant that Lu Yinlong was already very confident.
‘Old fox…’
Ever since he found out about Lin Yuyan and Shi Fenglan’s background, Jiang Beiran felt that there was something wrong with his sect master. Although the two girls were most likely sent by the Heavenly Axiom to target him, why did they have to be sent to the Returning Heart Sect instead of somewhere else?
On the other hand, as one of the people who could be easily taken advantage of,
Jiang BeiRan did not believe that the Heavenly Axiom would let go of Lu Yinlong, who was such a convenient ” chess piece “.
“This is another battle of wits and courage…’
After choosing option three, Jiang Beiran smiled and replied,””Sect Master, you just guessed that it was my idea.”
[Mission completed. Reward: Concentration +1]
Lu Yinlong was also taken aback by Jiang Beiran’s quick response, but he quickly laughed and said,””Beiran, are you considered to have grown your wings?”
“Disciple doesn’t dare. Disciple only thinks that disciple’s contribution is the sect’s contribution. If the sect master doesn’t hide it, disciple will definitely report it before doing anything next time.”
Glancing at Jiang Beiran, Lu Yinlong shook his head and said, ‘”That’s not necessary. It was just a joke just now. You did well. Just continue to maintain it.”
“Yes.” Jiang Beiran cupped his hands.
The two then chatted for a while about the changes in Lulin County over the past year, as well as some future plans, before Jiang Beiran took his leave.
As he watched Jiang Beiran leave, Lu Yinlong fiddled with the jade ring on his left index finger.
“This jade is unpolished…He was the one who had succeeded, but he did not know who would wear it in the end.”
After leaving Heavenly Cloud Peak, Jiang Beiqi headed straight for his residence in Jinyao Town.
After entering the backyard, Jiang Beiran entered the self-protection barrier in a blink of an eye.
“Hmm?”
The moment he entered the crystal, Jiang Beiran felt a hot and dry spiritual energy enter his nose. The intensity of the spiritual energy was indeed a little overwhelming.
Senior Brother! ?”
While Jiang Beiran was still in a daze, a somewhat familiar yet unfamiliar voice rang out.
Turning to look in the direction of the voice, Jiang Beiran almost burst out laughing.
Only Wu Qingce and Gu Qinghuan could enter his self-protection barrier. Although the person in front of him had a cheerful face, his figure was too burly.
Jiang Beiranyao remembered that before he left for the Qi Kingdom, Gu Qinghuan was still a handsome scholar. But now, the granite-like muscles on his arms were simply better than those so-called bodybuilders.
“What are you…?” Jiang Beiran asked as he examined Gu Qinghuan’s body.
Gu Qinghuan, who had jogged all the way to Jiang Beiran, cupped his hands and replied,””Reporting to Senior Brother, I’ve never forgotten Senior Brother’s watch over me in the past year. I’ve been practicing my forging skills every day, and as time passed, I became like this.”
Patting Gu Qinghuan’s shoulder, Jiang Beiran nodded and said,””Yes, senior brother is very gratified. ”
However, Jiang Beiran had always thought of Gu Qinghuan as a scheming military counselor. Now that she had become so strong, it was a bit of a change.
‘I just hope his brain hasn’t been trained into muscles…’
Gu Qinghuan was probably one of the calmest people to know that her senior brother had suddenly disappeared for more than a year.
When Gu Qinghuan was young, he had once thought highly of himself.
Although he was not talented in cultivation, those so-called geniuses were just some talented people who died early in his eyes.
On this continent where experts were as common as clouds, cultivation was very important, but one’s Seven Apertures Exquisite Heart was absolutely indispensable. Otherwise, if a genius did not live long enough, he would not be as good as those ordinary people. This was because high talent was often one of the reasons why they were killed.
Gu Qinghuan had always been very confident when it came to dealing with people and observing people’s expressions. Therefore, even if her cultivation talent was not very good, she still relied on her excellent negotiation skills to enter the best sect in Lulin County.
However, not long after he entered the sect, he met a senior brother who was almost perfect.
That’s right, perfect. Gu Qinghuan, who had always seen everyone as short-lived, couldn’t find any flaws in this senior brother. He was not only cautious, but also like a prophet. His concealment was not concealment, but rather, he was hiding in the city.
Gu Qinghuan had always thought that she could see through people’s hearts, see through what they saw, what they got, and what they thought. However, she could not see through this senior brother at all. She could not see through him at all.
He would never be able to guess what his senior brother would do next, let alone what he was thinking.
Therefore, even though they had only spent a few days together, Gu Qinghuan had already decided that he was definitely a powerful person worth relying on.
Now, Gu Qinghuan’s initial thoughts had not changed. She still felt that her senior brother was the most important person in the world who knew how to control people’s hearts. If such a big figure were to die one day because of something, then the crisis would probably destroy the entire Black Dragon
Continent.
‘This spiritual energy…ls it really fire spiritual energy?
Although Jiang Beiran had already suspected it when he inhaled the first breath of Spiritual Qi, he felt that it was unlikely. After taking a few breaths, he finally confirmed that his self-barrier was indeed filled with Fire Spiritual Qi..
