I Just Won't Play By The Book

Chapter 167 What a Surprise 1

Looking at the three options in front of him, Jiang Beiran was completely dumbfounded.

In the five years he had been in The Land of the Black Dragon, he had triggered more than 10,000 options, and this was the first time he had encountered a heaven rank.

“What? Will I be strike to death by a bolt of lightning if I walk out now?’

Looking at the cloudless and clear sky, Jiang Beiran silently withdrew his feet. After choosing option 3, he turned around and walked to Sect Master Lu, saying, “Sect Master, I have something to report to you.”

[ Option mission completed. Reward: Formation + 1]

“Oh? What is it?” Lu Yinlong raised his head and asked Jiang Beiran.

After thinking for a moment, Jiang Beiran cupped his hands and answered, “A few days ago, when I went down the mountain, I found that there were already forces cleaning up the Yellow Gang.” “Oh, I know about this. We don’t need to interfere. We just need to wait and see. Or do you have a different opinion?”

“I think…”

wa

come

Just as Jiang Beiran was about to come up with an excuse, a figure rushed in.

“Grandpa! Save me! Father is going to beat me to death!”

Hearing this “Grandpa”, Jiang Beiran knew that it was Lu Yinlong’s little granddaughter, Lu Qingyin. However, Jiang Beiran didn’t know much about her. He only knew that she didn’t cultivate with the other disciples of Sect of Returning Hearts.

Seeing his little granddaughter rushing in, Lu Yinlong said with a straight face, “Qingyin, where is your manner. How can you barge in here?”

Although he was criticizing her, there was only doting in his tone.

“Grandpa!” Lu Qingyin acted coquettishly as she walked in front of Lu Yinlong and squatted down to give him a couple of kicks. “I know I’m wrong. Please forgive me this time.”

At this time, another figure rushed into the main hall and pointed at Lu Qingyin. “How dare you! Who allowed you to barge into the sect master’s residence like this? Go back with me now!”

Jiang Beiran turned his head and glanced at the middle-aged man with extraordinary bearing. He knew that he must be Lu Yinlong’s son, Lu Qiufang.

Seeing that Lu Qiufang was about to reach out to grab Lu Qingyin, Lu Yinlong suddenly shouted, “I think you’re the one who’s being impudent! Who allowed you to come in like this?!”

Hearing Lu Yinlong’s shout, Lu Qiufang suddenly stopped. She hurriedly retreated to Jiang Beiran’s side and cupped her hands. “Greetings, father.”

“How rude!”

“I know I’m wrong.”

Seeing that a family drama was about to be staged, Jiang Beiran really wanted to bid farewell with cupped hands. However, when he thought of the heaven-grade option, he could only stay.

Lu Yinlong exhaled and looked at Lu Qiufang, who had her head lowered, and said, “The disciple standing next to you is Jiang Beiran, whom I told you about. Didn’t you say that you wanted to meet him?”.

After hearing that, Jiang Beiran quickly cupped his hands toward Lu Qiufang, who was looking at him, and said, “Greetings, Chief Minister.”

The chief minister was in charge of the promotion, rewards, and punishment of personnel in Sect of Returning Hearts. It was a necessary position to cultivate a successor, so the importance of his performance during his tenure was needless to say.

Looking at Jiang Beiran nodding his head, Lu Qiufang said, “I’ve heard from my father about your performance at the Gathering of Young Heroes. You have a bright future. Work hard. Our sect really needs a talent like you.”

Hearing that the “Director of personnel” had noticed him, Jiang Beiran had a million thoughts in his mind, but he still said respectfully, “Thank you for your praise. I will definitely continue to work hard.”

Seeing that the atmosphere had eased up, Lu Yinlong returned to the previous topic and asked, “Why did you chase Qing’er all the way to my place?”

Lu Qiufang first glared at Lu Qingyin, then cupped his hands toward Lu Yinlong and said, “This girl went to the Ye family behind my back and broke off the engagement that I gave her back then.”

“F*ck!!!!!” Jiang Beiran yelled in his heart.

Hearing this, Jiang Beiran felt as if he had been struck by lightning. It was like 10,000 horses galloped through his heart. “Is this the reason that triggering the heaven-grade option?!”

He didn’t notice the drastic change in Jiang Beiran’s expression, Lu Yinlong nodded and said, “Oh, about that.” Then, he looked at Lu Qingyin, who was still massaging her legs, and said, “Qingyin, that marriage is not a child’s play. Back then, the Ye family and we Lu family had a good relationship, so we decided to arrange a marriage for our children. We want the two families to be closer.”

“Grandpa!” Lu Qingyin grabbed Lu Yinlong’s arm and shook it. “I don’t want to marry someone I’ve never met. I want to stay by your side forever.”

Before Lu Yinlong could say anything, Lu Qiufang said first, “If you really want to break off the marriage, just tell me properly. What’s the point of breaking it off by yourself? How will the Ye family see us in the future?”

After hearing that, Lu Qingyin immediately said angrily, “Father! Why are you still being unreasonable? I’ve already told a million times that I don’t want to marry him! But you always give me a perfunctory response. I had no choice but to make this move.”

“I think you’ve been planning this for a long time. You’ve brought many men with you, and you even asked your Uncle Wu to suppress the situation for you! You have used force to intimidate the Ye family!”

“I didn’t use force! I just asked Uncle Wu to go with me.”

“You didn’t use force?!” Lu Qiufang looked at Lu Yinlong, “This girl even made a three-year pact with that Ye family brat. She said that she would fight him in our sect in three years. If she won, that Ye family brat would have to break off the engagement obediently. However, that Ye family brat’s cultivation stopped at level 3 qi refining realm two years ago. He’s not fit to cultivate at all. This girl’s words are completely humiliating him.”

Upon hearing this, Jiang Beiran’s forehead could not help but ooze with sweat. This was a terrifying crisis.

“It was that Ye Fan who insisted that I give him a way out. I was being kind…”
