I Just Won't Play By The Book Chapter 128

Kong Qianqian was so frightened that she took a few steps back. After calming herself down, she shouted, “Who… who followed you?”

“Just now in the inn, you sat by the window and ordered a plate of Edamame and a pot of Spring-welcoming Tea.”

“In front of the teahouse, you sat in the third and fourth row. When the storyteller mentioned Ao Xue's appearance, you clapped your hands excitedly.”

“In front of the candy man's stall, you bought…” Hearing this, Kong Qianqian could not help but shout, “You… you're stalking me!”

“If you didn't follow me, I wouldn't have noticed at you either. Tell me, why are you looking for me?”

Jiang Beiran always tried to avoid unnecessary trouble and hassle, but now that he was being targeted in such sensitive period. Perhaps this tracker was also helping the two big shots to investigate this matter.

Therefore, Jiang Beiran decided that it was better to find a place to confront her. In addition, she was just a level 8 mystic and nothing more.

“I… I…” For a moment, Kong Qianqian didn't know how to answer, so she turned around and ran away!

“Run! If you run away, I'll find Cult Master Yin. I happened to be looking for a spy of the demonic cult these two days. I think you look like one.”

After hearing that, Kong Qianqian immediately stopped, turned around and shouted, “I'm not a spy!”

“So why are you following me?” “I… I…”

Kong Qianqian was about to cry. She kept repeating “I” nervously.

At this time, Jiang Beiran walked toward her and put his hand into his arms. At the same time, he showed an expression and said, “Since you don't want to tell me, then I can only…”

As Jiang Beiran was speaking, he slowly stretched his hand out of his arms.

“What are you doing!?” Kong Qianqian was frightened. She hurriedly pulled out the sword on her waist and shouted. However, she was stunned in the next second because the man in front of her took out a toothpick.

After picking his teeth, Jiang Beiran nodded and said, “Spiritual Dragon Mystic Energy. So, the Spiritual Dragon Cult sent you to follow

me.”

“Ah?” Kong Qianqian was stunned again, and she hurriedly withdrew the burst of mystic energy and said, “No… You're mistaken. This is the Spiritual Snake Technique… it's not Spiritual Dragon Mystic Energy.”

Looking at Kong Qianqian explained nervously like a cat on hot bricks, Jiang Beiran raised three fingers and said, “You have three options now. One is to tell me who sent you, two is for me to tell Cult Master Yin about this, and three is for me to kill you. Choose.”

“There… There's no fourth option?” Kong Qianqian said aggrievedly.

Seeing Kong Qianqian's stupidity, Jiang Beiran stopped probing. He felt that Kong Qianqian was too clumsy to be a spy. But if she was a professional spy who could disguise herself as a fool, it would be very impressive.

Then, Jiang Beiran sighed and said, “Did Mu Yao send you to follow me?”

Hearing the word Mu Yao, Kong Qianqian's expression almost flew off. She waved her hand and said, “No, no! It wasn't Sister Mu who sent me… No, no, I don't know any Mu

Yao.”

Jiang Beiran was about to speak when three options appeared in front of her.

[ Option 1: Go and ask Mu Yao directly. Reward for completion: Heavenly Sorrow Poison Book (low tier earth grade)] [ Option 2: Let the female disciple in front of you to pass on a message to Mu Yao. Reward for completion: Clear Pistil Mystic Formation Map (middle tier black grade)]

[ Option 3: Tell this matter to Yin Jianghong directly. Reward for completion: Random special attribute points + 1]

“Tsk, it's really hard to shake off people who can trigger the earth grade option…”

However, Jiang Beiran didn't expect that this would also trigger a special attribute point. The resentment in his heart instantly lessened a little.

Sighing, Jiang Beiran chose option 3 and directly turned around to leave the alley.

Kong Qianqian was still trying to think of an explanation when she saw Jiang Beiran suddenly turn around and leave. For a moment, she didn't understand what was going on.

But in the next second, she suddenly sprinted and ran in front of Jiang Beiran, shouting, “Wait! Wait!”

“What else?”

Kong Qianqian thought for a while with a red face, then said, “Can you pretend that you never see me….”

After hearing Kong Qianqian's request, Jiang Beiran facepalmed himself. “How come Mu Yao send such a goof to stalk

СО)

me…'

Shaking his head, Jiang Beiran didn't know whether to laugh or cry as he said, “Alright, then you can continue to follow me.”

Kong Qianqian's eyes immediately lit up when she heard this, “Thank you! You're really a good person!”

After saying this, she ran to a place ten meters away from Jiang Beiran and found a wooden board to hide behind.

“How wonderful…” Jiang Beiran sighed in his heart.

The biggest impact on Jiang Beiran's worldview during this trip was that these demonic cult disciples were completely different from the ones he had met in the past.

When he was an iron seal, he saw demonic cult disciples robbed, killed, looted, and set fire to the village. It could be said that they had committed heinous crimes.

However, he was not sure where Yin Jianghong found these “interesting” demonic cult disciples. Each one of them were acting weird, or even stupid to some extent. They were really different from the other demonic cult disciples.

He came all the way to Qin Garden. This was the place where the two big bosses of the righteous sects and demonic cults had been working for the past two days. When Jiang Beiran was free, he knocked on the door and walked in.

“Oh, it's Beiran. Why are you here?” Yin Jianghong, who was rubbing the bridge of her nose, asked.

Yin Jianghong had also felt quite tired these two days. He had originally come here to create trouble and had some fun. He also planned to intimidate the righteous sect, and to carry out the plan that he had already set up.

However, Yin Jianghong did not expect his plan would be ruined. He felt that even if he became a mystic master, he was not omnipotent. He would still feel tired when he should be tired.

Jiang Beiran cupped his hands toward Yin Jianghong and said, “I'm sorry to disturb Cult Master Yin's rest, but I have to report something to you.” “Oh? Do you have a clue?” Yin Jianghong said in surprise.

“No, Cult Master Yin, your daughter Mu Yao sent someone to follow me.”

[ Chosen quest completed. Reward: Animal communication + 1]

Seeing that the special reward this time was animal communication, Jiang Beiran became a little happier.

The surprise in Yin Jianghong's eyes instantly disappeared. He sighed and said, “This girl has been clinging to her big brother since she was young, and she has never seen her big brother lose. So, she can't accept it at the moment.”

After saying that, Yin Jianghong shook her head. “I got it. I will go and teach her a good lesson and ask her not to do this again.”

“Thank you, Cult Master Yin. Then, I will take my leave first.”

“Wait.”

Just as he was about to turn around, Jiang Beiran turned around and cupped his hands. “Cult Master Yin, is there anything else you want to tell me?” “We have prepared a list of names. Come to the Sect Master's residence at night. We'll show you the list” “Got it.” Jiang Beiran cupped his hands and nodded. “Okay, then you can go first.”

“I'll take my leave.”

After leaving Qin Garden, Jiang Beiran began to “stroll around” for another day.

It was unknown whether it was because of the disturbance or because they had used up all their hostility two days ago, the disciples of the righteous sects were all cultivating in their own rooms.

Jiang Beiran did not encounter a situation where he triggered the option while walking on the road.

However, when he ran to the into demonic cult disciples' residence area, he could still trigger a few occasionally. But none of them could provide Jiang Beiran with clues or inspiration to “solve the case”.

At night, when Jiang Beiran realized that it was almost the appointed time, he turned around and walked toward the Sect Master's residence, only to find that the stalker was still following him.

“She's stupid… but she has quite the perseverance.”

Sighing in his heart, Jiang Beiran turned around and walked into a small alley.

Kong Qianqian quickly followed behind him, but when she entered the alley, she found that he was gone.

However, Kong Qianqian had already experienced it once before. She raised her head and shouted, “Ha! You won't scare me this time!”

However, she did not see Jiang Beiran popped out. This made her a little anxious.

“Did he really leave? Didn't he say that I could follow him… I'll definitely be reprimanded by Sister Mu Yao.'

To Jiang Beiran, it didn't matter if Kong Qianqian followed him when he was strolling around in the morning. However, he was going to the Sect Master's residence now. It was better not to let too many unrelated people know their business.

After knocking on the door, Jiang Beiran arrived at the living room with ease, but as soon as he entered, he saw an unexpected scene.

“Hey! Why do you always complain? I only… Mmmm…”

Before Mu Yao could finish her sentence, Yin Jianghong covered her mouth.

“Yaoyao, what did you promise me?” “Mmmmm…”

Mu Yao held Yin Jianghong's hand and muttered again.

“Now let go of my hand. Don't talk nonsense. Nod if you can.”

Mu Yao nodded at once.

Only then did Yin Jianghong release her hand in satisfaction.

“Humph!” Mu Yao, who had regained her freedom, immediately snorted.

“It seems like Cult Master Yin is not free at the moment, then I will take my leave first.” Jiang Beiran cupped his hands toward Yin Jianghong as he spoke. He then turned around and pushed the door open. But in the next second, Yin Jianghong circled around him like a ghost and said, “Why are you in such a hurry to leave?”

“Since Miss Mu is here, I won't be a nuisance here.”

At this time, Guan Shi'an, who had been watching the show, stroked his beard and laughed, “Hahaha, Beiran, the people of the demonic cult are so unreasonable. Come, I'll bring you to the inner hall to talk.”

After hearing that, Yin Jianghong blocked the two of them and then said to Jiang Beiran, “What's there to be a nuisance about? I brought Yaoyao here because she still owes you an apology.” “Father! When did I say that I want to…”?

Before Mu Yao could finish her sentence, she saw Yin Jianghong looking at her. He didn't look like he was joking at all.

She knew that there was no room for negotiation from her father's expression. She reluctantly walked over and cupped her hands to Jiang Beiran. “I'm sorry. I shouldn't have sent people to follow you.”

“What else?” Yin Jianghong asked again.

Mu Yao pouted and cupped her hands, “I shouldn't have come to scare you with the sword last time. I'm sorry.”

Jiang Beiran really didn't want to hear any apologies. He just wanted to stay away from this woman who could continuously trigger the earth grade option. However, with a mystic master in front of him, he really couldn't leave.

He could only return a bow to Mu Yao and said, “It's alright. I don't take it to heart. I just hope that Miss Mu won't do this again.”

After hearing that, Yin Jianghong said happily, “That's right. We just have to communicate in peace, right? Come, let's shake hands.” After saying that, Yin Jianghong pulled on Mu Yao with her left hand and Jiang Beiran with her right hand.

“Ah!?”

Jiang Beiran and Mu Yao were both shocked and wanted to pull their hands away. However, Yin Jianghong's grip was too strong that they could not break off.

Just as Jiang Beiran was about to shake hands with Mu Yao, Guan Shi'an suddenly appeared and held Yin Jianghong's hands down. “We shouldn't force juniors to do things that they don't like, should we?”

Yin Jianghong smiled after hearing that. “Sometimes, we elders need to provide some help. I wonder why you stopped me?”.

“I should be the one asking Sect Master Yin this question, right?” Guan Shi'an asked with a smile.

“Pedantic!”

Yin Jianghong let go of his hands while swearing. Then, he said to Jiang Beiran, “Besides asking Mu Yao to apologize to you, I also want to take this opportunity to explain things clearly.”

Yin Jianghong took a deep breath and said to Mu Yao seriously, “A Go game is like a life and death battle. Do you think your big brother will be happy to see you making trouble for him?”

“But…”

“But what?!” Yin Jianghong yelled at Mu Yao. Then, she continued, “Beiran's Go skill is even with mine. Do you think anyone in this world can beat your father in Go?”

“No, father's Go skill unparalleled!”

“Do you think that I misjudge Beiran's skill?”

Mu Yao heard this and quickly hugged Yin Jianghong's arm, “How is that possible? I never said such a thing.”

“So, what's wrong with Jiang Beiran beating your brother?”

“I… I know I'm wrong.”

“Good. Know your mistake.” Yin Jianghong rubbed Mu Yao's hair and said to Jiang Beiran, “Alright, we have made things clear. Let's get down to business then.”

Seeing that Mu Yao didn't seem to intend to leave, Jiang Beiran cupped his hands and said, “I suddenly feel unwell and want to go back and rest first.”

“Oh? Unwell? I have a Green Crane Pill that can cure all diseases. Here, take it.”

Jiang Beiran was sure that Yin Jianghong wouldn't let him go. He could only cup his hands and said, “Thank you, Cult Master Yin, for the medicine.”
