“Yes, sir! Thank you, Sister-in-law.”
She cupped her hands at Lin Yuyan and followed her in.
Arriving at the courtyard, Jiang Beiran habitually scanned Little Seven with his spiritual power before exclaiming in surprise,” You’ve advanced to the peak of the Mystic King Realm?”
Little Seven didn’t think that her cultivation could hide from Big Brother Wang, so she immediately cupped her hands and said,””Yes, I just advanced yesterday.”
‘Is this the protagonist’s halo…’
Jiang Beiran remembered that when he saw Little Seven on Golden Cauldron Island, he had just advanced to the ninth level of the Mystic King realm. Now, he had already broken through to the peak of the Mystic King realm and was only one step away from becoming a Mystic Emperor.
A year ago, he was just an ordinary person. ‘It’s indeed the ridiculous speed of a protagonist.’ “Then it seems that you are already prepared.”
“Please rest assured, Brother Wang!”
“Alright.” Jiang Beiran nodded. After pondering for a moment, he took out an ochre colored book and handed it to Lin Yuyan.””This book is about cultivating baleful aura. See if it will be of any help to you.”
Lin Yuyan almost lost her balance.
‘Senior Brother’s heart is indeed filled with me…Even though they were separated, he was still so concerned…Who said that the feelings between husband and wife would fade with time? Shixiong’s love for me has never lessened!’
“How… Thank you, Senior Martial Brother.” Lin Yuyan reached out her trembling hand to receive the book, her face filled with excitement.
“I have something to do, so I’ll be going out for a while.”Then, he looked at Little Seven and said, “Let’s go.”.
“Yes.”
Little Seven greeted Lin Yuyan with a salute before following Jiang Beiran out of the mansion.
As they reached the border of the Qi Kingdom, Jiang Beiran blew out a cloud and brought Little Seven to the direction of Tong Kingdom.
As usual, they took several detours along the way and spent three days before Jiang Beiran returned to Tong Country.
After getting off the cloud, Jiang Beiran looked at Little Seven and said,””Have you been to Tong Country before?”
Seven shook her head,” Never.”
“Alright, follow me.”
They found a teahouse and sat in a private room. Jiang Beiran took out a black robe from his Cosmos Ring and handed it to Little Seven.””Put it on. From now on, people will know that you are Little Seven.”
“Yes, sir.” Seven cupped her hands and immediately put on the robe.
After getting Little Seven to stand behind him, Jiang Beiran took out a piece of talisman paper and wrote a few lines of words on it. Then, he dropped it into a paper crane and let it fly.
After a while, Jiang Beiran, who had just finished a pot of tea, heard a knock on the door.
“Enter.”
With a creak, Shen Tianhua pushed the door open and entered.
Stepping into the private room, Shen Tianhua turned around and closed the door behind him. He then cupped his fists at Jiang Beiran and said,””Greetings, Grandmaster.”
And when he raised his head, he took the opportunity to size up the black clothed man behind Grandmaster.
While Shen Tianhua was puzzled, Jiang Beiran said,'”‘From today onwards, he will assist you in retrieving all the ancient book fragments. At the same time, he will ensure your safety.”
“Thank you, Master!” Shen Tianhua bowed and said,
Shen Tianhua had actually been suffocating for a long time. He knew that there was a newly opened tomb that he could explore, but he was still trapped in the Shi Manor and could not move. This simply made him extremely depressed.
Now hearing that Grandmaster had finally helped him find a guard, this made him greatly relieved.
Little Seven, who was standing beside Jiang Beiran, was confused.
He had thought that he was going to follow Big Brother Wang to explore the mysterious place, but now it seemed that this was not the case.
But since this ancient book can pique Brother Wang’s interest, it must be something extraordinary.’
When Shen Tianhua was back on his feet, Jiang Beiran suddenly stood up and asked,””Have you thought about the other question? Don’t play dumb. You should know what I’m asking you.”
Shen Tianhua naturally understood what Master Jiang meant.
It was nothing more than whether he wanted to join his camp or become his subordinate.
However, Shen Tianhua was used to being alone. Moreover, up until now, he only knew that this Master Jiang was very mysterious and powerful. However, he still did unknown know how powerful he was.
And Shen Tianhua, who had already suffered greatly in this matter, did not intend to recognize a mysterious figure that he almost did not understand as his big brother so soon.
Taking a deep breath, Shen Tianhua cupped his hands and replied,””Please give me some time to think it over.”
“Alright, you can give me an answer after this matter is completely over. Now, you can go to the hall on the first floor and wait for me.”
Shen Tianhua was stunned. He thought that the next segment was to get to know the man in black, but he didn’t expect that he would be chased out.
However, Shen Tianhua was in no position to say “no”. After agreeing, he pushed open the door and went downstairs.
After Shen Tianhua left, Jiang Beiran looked at Little Seven and said,””Sit down,
I’ll tell you about your mission.”
“Yes.”
After Little Seven sat down, Jiang Beiran told him everything about the ancient book.
“Big Brother Wang wants me to accompany that Grandmaster Shen to snatch the remaining pages from the others?”
“That’s right.”
“I will do my best to complete it.”
Although Little Seven had always wanted to show his best side to Big Brother Wang, he didn’t plan to say anything that was beyond his ability.
From Brother Wang’s description just now, the other owners of the ancient book fragments seemed to have a strong background.
As a cultivator at the peak of the Mystic King realm, although he still had a lot of authority among the younger generation, if he were to face the Mystic Emperor or even the Mystic Sect, it would be a big problem if he could retreat unscathed, let alone hug Master Shen.
Hearing Little Seven’s cautious reply, Jiang Beiran knew that this mission had put him in a difficult position.
And that was Jiang Beiran’s goal.
Among Jiang Beiran’s many underlings, the most special one was actually Little Seven.
Because he was the only underling of the main character’s fate.
Jiang Beiran had never treated the two main characters he had met as his underlings, because the system would always jump to the next option whenever he had the thought.
That was why Jiang Beiran didn’t dare to make them work for him.
Otherwise, it would not be worth it.
However, Little Seven was different. From the first time he saw Little Seven to the various interactions he had with her, the system did not give him any options. Even when Little Seven expressed her allegiance, there was no option.
This meant that even if he accepted Little Seven, the little brother of the main character’s fate, he would not attract any trouble.
With such a lackey, Jiang Beiran’s thoughts naturally became lively.
He was a protagonist’s underling. Wouldn’t it be a waste if he didn’t make good use of him?
Therefore, when Jiang Beiran first officially assigned him a mission, he had been prepared to assign someone who was far beyond his own capabilities. This way, he could test out the potential of this main character level underling to the greatest extent.
Secondly, he wanted to see if he could unleash his shocking potential in the face of events or targets beyond his ability.
Of course, Jiang Beiran wouldn’t try it without any safety precautions.
Now that Little Seven was a member of the Lin family and had a good relationship with the two young misses, he could be considered a figure with a background. No one would dare to touch him easily.
Moreover, Jiang Beiran was not a hands-off manager. As long as something happened to Little Seven, he would be the first to help.
Otherwise, it would not be worth it.
