Chapter 162 Return 2
However, before Jiang Beiran could continue, Lu Yinlong let out a long breath and asked, “What did Sect Master Guan say?”
“Nothing much. He just said that he would pay more attention to the Sect of Crimson Afterglow and Sect Master Huang.”
“Hmm…” After a long breath, Lu Yinlong started to think about Jiang Beiran’s words, “Guan Shilan told this to Beiran. Is he trying to tell me through Beiran’s mouth so that I can distance myself from Huang Yuanqing as soon as possible? I didn’t expect things to develop like this.” After a while, Lu Yinlong took a sip from his teacup. “What else did Sect Master Guan say?”
“I don’t know much. I only know that both Sect Master Guan and Cult Master Yin seem to be planning to reorganize the righteous sects and demonic cults.”
Lu Yinlong looked thoughtful again after hearing that, but he nodded slowly and said, “I know. You did well this time. Go back and rest for a while.”
“Yes, I’ll take my leave.” Since Jiang Beiran had said what he needed to say, he didn’t intend to stay any longer. He cupped his fists at Lu Yinlong and left the main hall.
After leaving Tianyun Peak, Jiang Beiran went straight to the Order of Water Mirror. After all, it was Shi Fenglan’s Immortal Feather Robe that “saved” him this time, so he had to thank her personally right after he returned to the sect.
He arrived in front of the Tinglan Waterside Pavilion with ease and familiarity. Jiang Beiran stretched out his hand and knocked on the door.
Then, with a creak, the door was opened. Xiao Duo stuck her head out and was about to speak, but the expression on her face froze.
“Brother Jiang!?”
Seeing Xiao Duo’s shocked expression, Jiang Beiran was about to wave to greet her. However, Xiao Duo suddenly turned around and ran towards the hall.
Jiang Beiran knew what she was going to do, so he walked straight through the door and closed
it.
“Little Beiran!”
The moment Jiang Beiran walked into the parterre, he heard Shi Fenglan’s familiar voice coming from the hall. Along with the voice, a figure quickly rushed towards him.
Jiang Beiran skillfully dodged to the side and bowed to Shi Fenglan, who was hugging the welcoming flower tree, “Greetings, Order Master Shi.”
Shi Fenglan turned around elegantly as if nothing had happened. She looked at Jiang Beiran and asked, “Why did you suddenly come back?”
“I came back after I finished my business.” After saying this, Jiang Beiran bowed to Shi Fenglan again. “Thank you for the Immortal Feather Robe, Order Master Shi. Otherwise, I would have died in Sect of Masked Moon.”
“What!?” Shi Fenglan was shocked after hearing this, and then she said with an angry expression, “Who! Who tried to kill you! Tell me, I will tear down his house!”
Seeing Shi Fenglan reveal her small canine teeth due to her anger, Jiang Beiran was quite moved in his heart. He cupped his hands and replied, “The person who tried to kill me is already dead. You don’t have to seek revenge for me.”
In fact, the person who ambushed him, Yu Yangrong, was still alive. Guan Shi’an thought that he might still need Yu Yangrong in the future, so he locked him up in the Sect of Masked Moon. However, Jiang Beiran believed that as the entire matter was resolved, it was unlikely that Yu Yangrong would come out alive.
Hearing that the person who killed him was dead, Shi Fenglan nodded her head and said, “Which sect did it?”
“It’s a long story. Let’s go in and talk about it. I’ll make you a cup of Mengding Tea.” “Okay!” Shi Fenglan nodded her head hard. “It feels like I haven’t drunk your tea for a long time.”
“Actually, I’ve only been away for half a month. It’s not that long, right?”
“It just feels like it’s been a long time! Hurry up and go in!” Shi Fenglan said as she pushed Jiang Beiran into the main hall.
“I’ve heard this part before. Let’s skip it, let’s skip it.”
In front of the sandalwood table, Shi Fenglan immediately shouted when she heard Jiang Beiran mention that most of the righteous sect disciples were no match for the demonic cult disciples.
“Huh?” Jiang Beiran was a little puzzled. He felt that with Lu Yinlong’s personality, he wouldn’t say such disgraceful thing out loud, so he asked, “Order Master, where did you hear it from?”
“Manwen told me.” Then she immediately added, “She went to ask a few disciples who were attending the Gathering of Young Heroes.”
“I see.” Jiang Beiran nodded. “Then you should know what happened at the gathering, right?”
“No, I only heard about the Go game. Manwen didn’t tell me that you were almost beaten to death.”
“Oh, I was almost beaten to death because…”
“Wait, start from the Go game. I want to hear you say it yourself.”
“Okay, okay, okay. Since you are my savior, I will tell you.”
“Hehe.”
After two cups of tea, Jiang Beiran had already told Shi Fenglan about everything that he had encountered this time. She was very satisfied listening to it. From time to time, she would clap and cheer with Xiao Duo. “Wow! Little Beiran, aren’t you in the limelight this time?” After listening to Jiang Beiran’s narration, Shi Fenglan said with her eyes wide open. “Sigh, I was forced to do so.” Jiang Beiran sighed and used the tea as a substitute for the wine. He drank the Mengding tea in front of him in one gulp. “In that case, will Sect Master Lu arrange errands for you in the future?” “This… I hope not.”
“Why don’t I go and talk to him?”
Upon hearing Shi Fenglan’s words, Jiang Beiran was prepared to reject her, but after thinking about it, it was actually doable. After all, Sect Master Lu already knew that he had a good relationship with Shi Fenglan. So, since she was able to become order master, then he could be under her wings and loaf around, right? “Yes, it can be included in the alternative plan.” After deciding on this idea in his heart, Jiang Beiran shook his head at Shi Fenglan and said, “No need. Sect Master Lu understands me quite well. I don’t think he would do that.”
After saying that, Jiang Beiran took out the Cloud Plate Armor from his storage ring and handed it to Shi Fenglan. He said, “This time, it’s really thanks to you lending me the Immortal Feather Robe. I will remember this favor.”
From the beginning, the two of them had agreed that Jiang Beiran would return it to Shi Fenglan. Otherwise, Jiang Beiran would not have dared to accept such an expensive gift.
Looking at the Immortal Feather Robe that Jiang Beiran handed over, Shi Fenglan’s expression was a little conflicted. “Hmm… Why don’t you wear it? I don’t want to see anything happen to you.”
Jiang Beiran was just about to speak when three options appeared in front of him.
[ Option 1: Keep the Cloud Plate Armor. Reward: Red Wind Sword Manual (high tier black grade)] [ Option 2: “Then I’ll wear it for a while.” Reward: Tiger Pattern Nether Scroll (high tier yellow grade)]
[ Option 3: Insist on returning it. Reward: Random basic skill points + 1]
“This cloud plate armor is really hot to the touch…”
After choosing option 3, Jiang Beiran stuffed the Immortal Feather Robe into Shi Fenglan’s arms and said, “We agreed that you only lend it to me once. Order Master Shi should still have other uses for this armor, right?”
“En…” after hesitating for a moment, Shi Fenglan sighed and said, “Alright then, I’ll think of a way to find another magical item to replace it for you.”
“Alright, then I’ll thank you in advance.”
“Don’t worry, leave it to me.” Shi Fenglan said as she patted her chest.
Looking at the surging waves in front of Shi Fenglan’s chest, Jiang Beiran suddenly thought of a topic he had read on the internet in the past.
[ What kind of experience is it when your age and figure don’t match? ]
Although Shi Fenglan was not young anymore, Jiang Beiran still felt that she was still a child after spending so much time with her. He thought that she was like a ten years old.
After patting her chest and promising, Shi Fenglan suddenly looked at Jiang Beiran with an expectant gaze and said, “Then, we are done with our business. Let’s hurry up and have an electrifying Chivalrous Heroes game!”
Jiang Beiran had taught Shi Fenglan the word “electrifying” out of boredom. Now, she used this adjective every time she mentioned Chivalrous Heroes.
After Jiang Beiran heard it, he looked at the night sky outside the window and replied, “It’s already late today. I still have some things to do. Why don’t we play it tomorrow?”.
After hearing it, Shi Fenglan shook her head and said, “Just one game, just one game. I haven’t played for a long time. I think about it every day.” After saying that, she looked at Xiao Duo and said, “Xiao Duo, you want to play
right?”
This time, Xiao Duo was not forced by the Shi Fenglan. She nodded shyly and said, “Well… I want to play too.”
Thinking that it was already late and he did not have any urgent things to do, Jiang Beiran thought about it and nodded. “Alright then, just one round.”
“Great!”
Shi Fenglan raised both of her hands and made a long live gesture.
In the end, it was not until midnight that Jiang Beiran, who had won, left the Tinglan Pavilion under Shi Fenglan’s reluctant gaze.
Looking at the stars in the sky, Jiang Bei suddenly felt as if he had forgotten something.
“What is it… forget it, I might remember it later.”
“Slurp, slurp, slurp”
In Luoxia Town, Kong Qianqian was sitting in her room eating Yang Chun noodles. While chewing, she looked at the window and wondered, “Why aren’t Sister Mu and Mr. Jiang back yet?’
