Chapter 140: Traveling Together

After watching the people of the Sect of Returning Hearts leave from afar, Jiang Beiran arrived at the sect masters residence at the agreed time.

My little friend is here.

As soon as he entered the living room, Jiang Beiran heard Guan Shians voice.

Greetings, Sect Master Guan.

After bowing, Jiang Beiran was about to ask why Cult Master Yin wasnt here when he heard the door being pushed open. Oh, Beiran is already here.

Turning around, Jiang Beiran was about to bow when he saw Mu Yao following behind Yin Jianghong with an unwilling expression.

Sigh useless woman, you didnt ruin this matter? Typical daughters always submissive to outsiders and punch their father heavily. Why dont you know anything about it?

After despising Mu Yao in his heart, Jiang Beiran cupped his hands towards Yin Jianghong and said, Greetings, Cult Master Yin.

Nodding towards Jiang Beiran, Yin Jianghong sat beside Guan Shilan and continued to discuss the follow-up from yesterday.

However, there wasnt much substantive content. He just repeated what he said yesterday to Mu Yao.

So, you must investigate Yellow Gang thoroughly. Yaoyao, you have to work hard this time.

Mu Yao wanted to say something, but she was glared back by Yin Jianghong. She had no choice but to cup her hands and said, To be able to share the burden for Cult Master is my greatest honor.

Yin Jianghong nodded his head in satisfaction. He looked at Jiang Beiran and said, Beiran, Ill leave Yaoyao in your hands this time. If she doesnt listen to you, note it down. When the time comes, youll tell me what she has done, and Ill definitely punish her properly.

After hearing that, Jiang Beiran cupped his hands and said, Understand.

On the side, Mu Yaos face was full of indignation, and even her breathing had become much heavier.

Of course, you have to take good care of my daughter. Otherwise, Ill hold you responsible.

Yes, I will do my best to protect Miss Mu.

Mm then you two have a good rest today and set off tomorrow at 7am to 9am.

After Mu Yao left in a huff, Jiang Beiran, who had remained at the same spot, cupped his fists and said to Guan Shian, Sect Master Guan, there is something that I dont understand, and Id like to ask you.

What is it?

I have tried the Ruyi Fortune Bucket and it is very useful. However, there is one thing that Im curious about. If I turn a fortune stick into charcoal and burn it, wouldnt there be one less fortune stick in the bucket?

Jiang Beiran had wanted to ask this question yesterday, but he had accidentally forgotten about it after being tormented by Yin Jianghong. He only remembered it before he left.

Guan Shian laughed out loud after listening to him. It seems that you have indeed studied it. You dont have to worry about this. There is no end to the number of sticks in the Ruyi Fortune Bucket. However, there is one thing that you must remember. If you use it too frequently, it will become less effective.

I understand. Thank you, Sect Master Guan, for your explanation.

Mm, if there is nothing else, you should go back and rest.

Yes, Ill take my leave. After saying that, Jiang Beiran bowed to the two magnates and left the living room. After the door was closed, Guan Shian looked at Yin Jianghong and said, Do you really think highly of this Jiang Beiran? Although he is a little quick-witted, his cultivation is still too weak.

Hahaha, Sect Master Guan, do you really think that this will make me lose my interest in this kid? Yes. Cultivation is important in this world, but many times, people with brains can live longer and sit higher than those with higher cultivation.

You give him a really high praise. Guan Shian laughed. Is this the reason why you feel relieved to hand your daughter over to him?

Guan Shians words were a double meaning, and Yin Jianghong naturally understood it.

Sect Master Guan, do you think that a qi refining realm disciple would be totally fine after being ambushed by a superior mystic practitioner?

This Guan Shian dragged out his words, Its almost impossible.

Hahaha, Ive roamed the Fengzhou for nearly a hundred years, but Ive never heard of such a thing. I dont believe a single word that kid said. Hes definitely hiding something, and its very, very deep.

Guan Shilan was silent for a while after hearing it. He had been thinking about how to find those pests in the Fengzhou, but he had indeed not thought deeply about Jiang Beiran. Now that he heard Yin Jianghong, he indeed found that Jiang Beiran was very interesting. At the very least, Jiang Beiran didnt look like a young disciple full of vitality at all because he was acting too calm.

Your words are somewhat reasonable, but I still have to remind you that Jiang Beiran is my righteous sect disciple. If you make a move on him, dont blame me for turning hostile against you.

Aiyo, you scared me to death. How can your old face turn hostile? I thought I lost all my face in this Gathering of Young Heroes.

Hearing Yin Jianghongs sarcastic words, Guan Shilan was angered.

But he had to admit that he was not wrong. Wu Qingce did win one of the most important competitions in this Gathering of Young Heroes and able to maintain the reputation of righteous sect. But overall, the righteous sect still lost to demonic cult.

Seeing that Guan Shian did not speak, Yin Jianghong smiled and said, Dont worry. Although I think that kid is very interesting, I also know what this kind of person hates the most. Ill let nature take its course. This kid has enormous potential. If we force him to go to another provinces, then we will really suffer a great loss.

Speaking of other provinces Yin Jianghong looked at Guan Shian again. This time, after the internal conflicts are resolved, we can prepare for the big things we have to do.

Dont worry, Ill remember everything.

The next morning, Jiang Beiran arrived at the gate of the Sect of Masked Moon at the agreed time. Not long after, he saw Mu Yao walking towards him.

Today, she was wearing the black clothes that she had worn when they first met, and most of her face was covered up.

This is a good habit. Not bad, not bad.

Jiang Beiran, who had barely added 0.5 points to Mu Yao in his heart, walked up and said, Sect Master Guan and your father arent going to send us off. Our carriage is already at the gate.

Father isnt going to send me off

Although half of Mu Yaos face was covered up, Jiang Beiran could still see that she was quite disappointed.

Lets go.

Without any intention to comfort Mu Yao, Jiang Beiran directly led her to the big carriage pulled by Sturdy Bull at the door. In fact, compared to riding in Sturdy Bulls carriage, cultivators could actually run faster. Unfortunately, Jiang Beiran was only at qi refining level five, so he still had to take a ride.

Sitting in the car, Jiang Beiran said to the man who looked to be about 30 years old on the drivers seat, Thank you for your service. Were counting on you, Sir. How do I address you?

The middle-aged man immediately smiled and replied, Its nothing. This is my job anyway. You can just call me Ah Niu.

Jiang Beiran nodded to Ah Niu. He sat in the car and lifted up his clothes. Then Brother Niu, lets set off now.

Alright! Ah Niu replied and drove the car forward.
