I Just Won't Play By The Book

Chapter 218: I Don’t Know, and I Don’t Want to Know. Don’t Tell Me 2

“Brother Ye Fan... You’re a fool, a fool...”

“Humph, you’re a big mouth.” Yong Yuanzhou sneered. “Only an ignorant ant like you would say such a ridiculous thing.”

However, neither Ye Fan nor Xin Dong ‘er had the time to pay attention to Yong Yuanzhou. They looked at each other and smiled. Xin Dong ‘er grabbed Ye Fan’s hand and said, “Brother Ye Fan, I believe in you. You will definitely become the strongest person on this continent. I’m waiting for you.”

“Don’t worry, I will definitely keep my word.” Ye Fan nodded his head vigorously.

“Yes, I believe in you.”

Xin Dong’er shook Ye Fan’s hand and turned around to leave resolutely. She boarded a flying shuttle that Yong Yuanzhou had conjured out of nowhere.

Before she left, Yong Yuan Zhou turned his head and sneered at Ye Fan. “Don’t let me see your face again, ant.”

After saying that, he soared into the air with the other five people and instantly disappeared from Ye Fan’s sight.

“Dong ‘er... Wait for me.”

Ye Fan looked at the sky and tightly clenched his fists.

The departure of Dong’er made Ye Fan’s desire to become stronger even greater. This was because he did not want Dong’er to wait for him for too long. He wanted to become stronger as soon as possible!

“It’s a pity that Immortal and the three gentlemen have already left Jiyuan Town. Otherwise, if I were to ask them...”

“No! If I always rely on Immortal, how can I become stronger? Immortal has already given me a new life. I have to fight my own war from now on.”

At this moment, Ye Fan decided to go out and explore. He wanted to go to those places where risks and benefits coexisted to train himself.

On the other side, Jiang Beiran had already returned to Sect of Returning Hearts for half a month. After settling the matter between Ye Fan and Mu Yao, the system seemed to have entered “power-saving mode” once again. Whether it was Order Master Zhang, Law Protector Yu or even the Sect Master coming to look for him, the simplest option was to reject them in all sorts of ways.

This made Jiang Beiran shake his head in comfort.

“This is good... This is very good...”

The reason why Sect Master came looking for him personally was because Fengzhou had finally started to fall into chaos. The incident of Mu Yao being kidnapped had triggered the ‘purges’ of the righteous sects and demonic cults ahead of time.

Although it was said to be ahead of time, the purges had been laid out for a period of time. In addition, there were two mystic master level experts who had personally taken action. Therefore, although Fengzhou was in chaos, it was still somewhat orderly.

However, regardless of whether it was orderly amidst chaos or a pile of loose sand, Jiang Beiran didn’t really care. As long as the fire didn’t reach Sect of Returning Hearts, he could continue to accompany Shi Fenglan in the Tinglan Waterside Pavilion to “gamble” in peace.

“I was injured by the aftermath of the fight between the two mystic emperor level experts. I will meditate on the spot to recover for three rounds.” After reading the [ incident card ] in her hand, Shi Fenglan couldn’t help but pout, “How can a mere mystic emperor hurt my Fire Phoenix? I am not convinced!”

Jiang Beiran, who was already used to hearing such words, took the dice on the table and handed it to Xiao Duo. “Ignore her. It’s your turn.”

“I am just not convinced!” Shi Fenglan suddenly put her hands on her waist. “My “lucky star” only has three days left. As long as I can walk to the mystic pool, I will definitely be able to raise my Fire Phoenix to another level. Little Beiran, let me go. Let me go!”

Shi Fenglan hugged Jiang Beiran’s arm and acted coquettishly.

Feeling the “surging waves” on his arm, Jiang Beiran calmly struggled out and said, “One, don’t touch me. Two, if you continue to act shamelessly, you won’t have any meat to eat today.”

“Hey! We’re eating meat tonight! What meat, what meat!?” Shi Fenglan asked with her eyes wide open.

“Dongpo meat.”

“Dongpo meat? What is Dongpo meat? Is it some kind of delicious mystic beast?”

“That’s not important. All you need to know is that it’s delicious.”

Just as the two of them were chatting happily, the door was opened with a bang. Yu Manwen, who was dressed in tight clothes, strode in.

“Hey, you guys! It’s already a mess outside, and you guys are still gambling here all day long. Do you have any shame!?”

Jiang Beiran took the dice from Xiao Duo and replied, “I’m just an in-name disciple. Even if the sky falls, you guys will be the ones to take care of it. I’ll just be in charge of logistics. We’ll eat Dongpo Meat tonight. If Law Protector Yu likes it, you can stay and eat it together.”

“In-name disciple? I heard that Sect Master personally summoned you a few days ago. which in-name disciple can receive such treatment?”

“How is this a treatment? It’s not a good thing,” Jiang Beiran said as he threw the dice.

“It’s naturally a good thing to be summoned by Sect Master. This means that Sect Master values you, and you will naturally receive great benefits from it.”

“Law Protector Yu, it’s not like you don’t know me. Do you think I would want it?”

Now, the Tinglan Waterside Pavilion could be said to be Jiang Beiran’s second home. He had spent so much time with Yu Manwen and Shi Fenglan. Although Jiang Beiran had yet to completely reveal his cards to them, he actually treated them like Wu Qingce and the others, so he spoke more casually.

“Sigh, a while ago, I saw that you were so busy, and I thought that you were just doing nothing. But now, this month, you’ve been hanging out with our order master all day, and you don’t do anything serious.”

Shi Fenglan was already used to it. Yu Manwen’s words did not hurt her at all, she even shouted at Yu Manwen, “Manwen, quickly bring out your Sword Fairy and play together. We can give you another chance, so that you don’t lose too quickly.”

A few days ago, when Jiang Beiran was not around, Yu Manwen finally could not stand Shi Fenglan’s coaxing. She “gambled” with her a few times.

This was not because she did not want to play the bad cop anymore, but because she knew that Shi Fenglan no longer cared whether the games Jiang Beiran brought were gambling or not. What she wanted now was happiness.

If Yu Manwen still did not play with Shi Fenglan, she might not be able to hold it in and run out to cause trouble.

After playing two rounds of Wandering the World, Yu Manwen also became addicted to gambling. Every night, she would play a few rounds with Shi Fenglan.

After Jiang Beiran came back and found out about this, he personally carved a “Sword Fairy” for Yu Manwen as her exclusive piece.

Yu Manwen once said that, “You guys are the only ones who like these children’s toys,” but she also started to like to play with them. She carried this “Sword Fairy” with her every day and would occasionally play with them.

Although Shi Fenglan’s suggestion was very tempting, Yu Manwen still held back and coughed lightly. “Do you think I’m as free as you guys? Today, I’m in charge of patrolling the mountain. I’ll have to leave in a while.”

“Alright.” Shi Fenglan pouted a little dispiritedly. After all, after Jiang Beiran leveled up the Wandering the World, it was much more fun for four people to play together than three people.

“Then, should I leave a portion of Dongpo meat for you tonight?” Jiang Beiran asked.

“What’s this Dongpo?” Yu Manwen asked curiously.

“It’s not important. Anyway, you just need to know that it’s delicious.”

“Then... if it’s not troublesome, then save me a portion.”

In front of the delicacies prepared by Jiang Beiran, even Yu Manwen could no longer remain reserved. She had no choice. It was simply too delicious. Moreover, only Jiang Beiran knew how to cook those delicacies. They could not be found in other places.

After sitting down and drinking a mouthful of tea, Yu Manwen looked at Jiang Beiran, who was holding a small abacus to calculate the account, and said, “Do you know about the matter of the Sect of Crimson Afterglow?”

As soon as Yu Manwen finished speaking, three options popped up.

[ Option 1: Ask about the Sect of Crimson Afterglow. Reward: Regretless Secret Book (high-tier black-grade)]

[ Option 2: Try to change the topic. Reward: Brocade Cloud Bible (high-tier yellow-grade)]

[ Option 3: “I don’t know, and I don’t want to know. Don’t tell me.” Reward: Random basic skill points + 1]

Without hesitation, Jiang Beiran chose option 3. As he took two yellow banknotes from the tearful Shi Fenglan, he replied, “I don’t know, and I don’t want to know. Don’t tell me.”

[ Chosen quest completed. Reward: Drawing + 1]

Sighing helplessly, Yu Manwen shook her head and said, “We really don’t get along. I’m going to patrol the mountains.”

At this moment, Shi Fenglan remembered Ren Qiuyan, and she shouted, “Sect of Crimson Afterglow...”

However, before she could finish her sentence, she saw Jiang Beiran getting up to leave.

Shi Fenglan was so frightened that she grabbed Jiang Beiran and shouted, “Aiya! I won’t ask. I won’t ask. Don’t go!”
