I Just Won't Play By The Book Chapter 224

Hearing that Guan Shi'an didn't seem to take this seriously, Jiang Beiran was even more certain that this mystic master was truly a "boorish man". He did indeed have extremely high talent in cultivation, but when it came to other matters, he was quite rash.

At the end of the day, this action of his was poaching other people's disciples. After all, it was impossible for Jiang Beiran to become a disciple of Sect of Returning Hearts and also the emperor. Even if Lu Yinlong didn't lose his temper on the surface, he would definitely feel uncomfortable in his heart.

When Jiang Beiran hadn't seen Guan Shi'an before, Jiang Beiran had already felt that he was a person who enjoyed his achievements greatly. When he was in the Sect of Masked Moon, Guan Shi'an had deliberately provoked the disciples of various sects to fight each other in a childish manner.

At this moment, Jiang Beiran somewhat missed Yin Jianghong. Although he was a cunning old man, he was much easier to talk to than Guan Shi'an.

"Let's go. We'll first go find Brother Lu and inform him of this matter."

What else could Jiang Beiran say? He could just follow him.

"Let Beiran be the emperor!?"

In the sect master's residence, Lu Yinlong's cold expression crumbled in a second. He stared at Guan Shi'an in surprise, as if he was asking, "Are you kidding me?"

Seeing that Lu Yinlong had a bigger reaction than Jiang Beiran, Guan Shi'an smiled and said, "I'm serious, Sect Master Lu, what do you think?"

Lu Yinlong didn't know what to say. He looked at the innocent-looking Jiang Beiran, then, he looked at Guan Shi'an and said, "Well… although I don't know why Sect Master Guan likes him, Jiang Beiran is a disciple of Sect of Returning Hearts, and I admire him very much. I don't want you to suddenly make him the emperor."

"Oh…"

Although Lu Yinlong's words couldn't be said to be direct, it could be said that he didn't agree with Guan Shi'an. This surprised Jiang Beiran a little. After all, he was facing the leader of the righteous sect in Fengzhou. Moreover, he had just finished the big clean-up.

After hearing Lu Yinlong's words, Guan Shi'an smiled and said, "What's there to be reluctant about? Even if Little Friend becomes the emperor, he's still a disciple of Sect of Returning Hearts. Speaking of which, it should be you who has taken advantage of him."

Lu Yinlong was stunned for a while before he asked, "Sect Master Guan, you mean… there's no need for Jiang Beiran to leave Sect of Returning Heart?"

"What's on your mind, Little Brother Lu? Of course he could still stay in the sect. He's just an emperor. Jiang Beiran is still a disciple of your Sect of Returning Hearts."

"Is that how it supposed to work!?" Jiang Beiran, who was standing below, was also stunned. "So, this emperor is a part-time job!?"

Although Jiang Beiran knew that the Sheng Kingdom did not value the Imperial Court very much, he did not expect it to be so low. In Guan Shi'an's eyes, the position of emperor was not even as important as a small disciple of a sect?

This time, Jiang Beiran understood that Guan Shi'an's performance was not reckless or that he did not take Lu Yinlong seriously, but that he did not take the emperor seriously.

While Jiang Beiran's thought was in a mess, Lu Yinlong, who understood Guan Shi'an's intentions, replied, "In that case, thank you for your understanding, Sect Master Guan."

In fact, when Lu Yinlong heard that Guan Shi'an wanted Jiang Beiran to become the emperor, he was not surprised by the fact that Jiang Beiran was going to become the emperor. Instead, he thought that Guan Shi'an was going to use the emperor to poach him.

However, since Jiang Beiran didn't have to leave the sect and was still a member of Sect of Returning Hearts, he now had no problem of letting Jiang Beiran became the emperor.

"Okay!" Guan Shi'an clapped his hands. "I knew that you're a person who understands righteousness. Let's do it this way then."

As for Jiang Beiran, he only had one mood at the moment.

"I'm tired, I'll destroy it… I don't want to save it anymore.'

Even though he had stayed in this world for so long, he felt that his worldview from his original world was completely different from the people here.

It was really ridiculous.

Lu Yinlong invited Guan Shi'an to stay for dinner that night, while Jiang Beiran came out early to clean up.

After returning to the back of the mountain, Jiang Beiran, who was sitting in the heart-nourishing formation, still hadn't recovered from his shock. However, he understood one thing. In the next few days, he had to figure out whether the entire Sheng Kingdom was so indifferent to the emperor, or if he, Guan Shi'an, was the only one who was so disregarding the emperor. This was very important.

"Sigh…"

_{Visit ‍elworld.c‎om for a better_reading experience}

At this moment, Jiang Beiran suddenly sighed. Because he had triggered attribute points when he went down the mountain in the past, Jiang Beiran had seen many things in the world. He also knew how difficult it was for most of the people.

Looking at it now, even though righteous sects would do chivalry deeds, they actually did not understand that the world was in a chaotic situation because the root cause was never resolved. After all, chivalry could only treat the symptoms. Only by truly letting all the people eat their fill could they solve the problem at the root, only by living a good life could the root of the problem be solved.

However, Jiang Beiran doubted that these cultivators really did not understand. Perhaps they did understand. They just did not like to be controlled. If the Imperial Court had too much power, they would have to be restrained in doing things. How uncomfortable would that be?

The cultivators now were completely above the law. They decided what was wrong and what was right. If ordinary people forcefully stole civilian women, they would be judged and punished. However, if cultivators forcefully stole civilian women, they were not judged because they would argue that they were bringing the women to a better life.

Jiang Beiran had seen many such things.

"However, since I have already become the emperor, wouldn't it be a waste if I didn't make some interesting changes to the world?"

In fact, Jiang Beiran had a huge plan in his heart. Originally, he wanted to use Sect of Returning Hearts to achieve it, but plan fell behind the changes. Now that he was sitting on the throne, he could better carry out this plan.

Ever since he had completely integrated into this fantasy world, Jiang Beiran realized that the fantasy world was not only about the strong versus the strongest and the number one in the world. It was more about "firewood, rice, oil, salt".

Experts also needed to eat, and experts also needed to earn money.

Establishing a sect and building a sect was just to better plunder resources.

Simply put, experts also wanted to earn money, but the way they earned money was too simple and crude.

As a person who had experienced the "entertainment till death" era in the 21st century, Jiang Beiran's stage was too big.

For example, when Jiang Beiran first saw the youth martial arts competition in the Rivernorth District, what was the point of having a bunch of old men controlling such an exciting competition? They could have sold a bunch of tickets for the competition.

It was too wasteful!

Just like what Guan Shi'an said before, the cultivation experts only had one requirement for the emperor, and that was to not let the commoners starve to death. It was because their sects still needed to recruit disciples. If all the commoners died, where would their sects recruit disciples?

_{Updated_at ​elworld.c‍om}

As for whether the commoners lived well or not, it had nothing to do with them.

Since Jiang Beiran was in this position, he naturally had to meet this minimum standard. And now, he planned to make this matter more interesting.

Jiang Beiran, who once again felt that this matter was interesting, stood up and stretched.

"Accident or tomorrow, people never know which comes first. I remember when I was young, there was a fortune teller said that I will become the emperor. Heh… it's quite accurate."

Thinking that he was going to Yunzhou County where the imperial palace was located with Guan Shi'an tomorrow, Jiang Beiran first went to Tinglan Waterside Pavilion.

"Dong, dong, dong."

"Coming!" Xiao Duo, who was cleaning the courtyard, ran over and opened the door.

"Eh, Brother Jiang?" Xiao Duo shouted in surprise because Jiang Beiran rarely came at night.

Shi Fenglan, who was in a daze in the main hall, immediately ran out when she heard Xiao Duo say "Brother Jiang".

"Xiao Beiran, why didn't you come this afternoon?"

Jiang Beiran closed the door and replied, "I ran into something."

"Alright, come and play. Come and play. You have to make up for it!" Shi Fenglan said as she grabbed Jiang Beiran's arm.

"I'm not playing today. I came to tell you that I'm going on a long trip tomorrow."

"Ah!" Shi Fenglan's mouth immediately opened. "You're going on a long trip again? What are you going to do this time? Don't tell me it's a secret again!"

"Oh, it's not a secret this time. I'm going to be the emperor."

"Oh, to be the emperor?" Shi Fenglan was stunned. "Ah? To be the emperor? What do you mean?"

"I mean it literally. I will ascend the throne tomorrow. The new emperor of Sheng Kingdom will be me." Jiang Beiran smiled.
