I Just Won't Play By The Book Chapter 82

With a bang, the wooden door of the formation room was pushed open. Wu Qingce felt his strength increase drastically. He rushed out and was about to shout, “Brother Jiang, I've broken through!” When he saw Jiang Beiran standing at the door with an indifferent expression.

“Brother Jiang… you… have been here to protect me?”

As he spoke, Wu Qingce's eyes were already red and moved emotions surged into his heart.

Without waiting for Jiang Beiran to explain, Wu Qingce bowed deeply and shouted, “Thank you, Brother Jiang!”

“No, I just realized that you've broken through and came over to take a look.”

“Yes, I understand.”

Wu Qingce thought to himself, “Brother Jiang is cold on the outside but he is warm-hearted inside. How could it be a coincidence?”

Seeing Wu Qingce's disbelief, Jiang Beiran was too lazy to explain further, he pointed at the small room beside him and said, “Although you think you are very handsome, very strong, and very outstanding right now, but your hair is actually almost knotted and there's a strange smell on your body. Hurry up and go wash up.” “Uh, yes…” Just as Jiang Beiran said, Wu Qingce, who had just broken through, indeed felt that he had undergone a transformation. Moreover, it was the kind of transformation that came from the inside out. However, his senior brother's words pulled him back to reality.

After taking a shower, he changed into a clean robe that he had prepared in the storage ring. Now, he was full of confidence again. He walked up to Jiang Beiran, who was preparing breakfast, and bowed. “Brother Jiang, it's all thanks to the spirit gathering array that you set up this time. I broke through very smoothly.”

Jiang Beiran, who was cutting the green onions, turned around and asked, “It works very well, right?”

“Yes, it's very useful.”

“That's good. This time, we used a total of two crystal fangs, fifteen pieces of golden red paper, three pieces of crimson cloud crystal, two pieces of flaming lion skin, three…”

“Brother Jiang, don't worry. I have memorized all the materials. I will definitely return them in the future.” Wu Qingce, who knew what Jiang Beiran wanted to say, cupped his hands and replied.

“Alright.” Jiang Beiran nodded his head in satisfaction. Then, he asked, “How does it feel to become a great mystic practitioner?” “The purity of the mystic energy in my body has increased. When I want to use my cultivation method, the response speed of the mystic energy has also increased by a lot. As for the rest… I'll only know after I've experienced actual combat.” “Oh? Do you need me to spar with you?” Jiang Beiran stopped the slicing knife in his hand and asked.

Wu Qingce immediately took a step back and shook his head. “No, no, Brother Jiang, please spare me. I still want to enjoy the pleasure of breaking through for a while longer.”

“Alright, then I'm done with you. Go back to Order of Chaos Stars and tell your Order Master the good news. At the same time, you can also find a few senior brothers to show off.” After saying that, Jiang Beiran took out a small bamboo tube from his storage ring and threw it at Wu Qingce. “This is the material you are going to search this time.” “Yes, sir.” taking the small bamboo tube from Jiang Beiran, Wu Qingce did not have the intention to turn around and leave. His eyes were fixed on the little green onion on the chopping board.

Looking at the drooling Wu Qingce, Jiang Beiran asked with a smile, “Green onion congee, do you want a bowl before you leave?”

“Thank you, Brother Jiang!”

After ten minutes, Wu Qingce, who had drunk seven bowls of green onion congee in a row, burped and left the mountain. On the other hand, Jiang Beiran walked towards the Order of Water Mirror on a daily basis.

Just as he stepped into the main hall of the Tinglan Waterside Pavilion, Shi Fenglan was already waiting there for a long time. When she saw him, she did not ask Jiang Beiran to quickly take out his gambling board as she usually did. Instead, she walked up and begged, “Little Beiran, can I ask you something?”

“No.” Jiang Beiran shook his head. “Hey! Finish listening!” After saying that, Shi Fenglan did not wait for Jiang Beiran, she continued, “Do you still remember that Sect of Crimson Afterglow's disciple who came last time? Her name was Ren Qiuyan, and she was a very sensible disciple. Because her master and I were good friends, she would sometimes to send me some gifts on behave of her master. Wait! Don't go, don't go! I'm almost done.”

Shi Fenglan pulled Jiang Beiran, who was about to walk out of the door, with all her strength. She then spoke quickly, “Didn't you tell Manwen last time that it's more fun to have more people to play Wandering the World? Manwen doesn't want to join us, so let's bring Qiuyan to play together, okay? She won't go out and say anything, I promise you!”

After witnessing Jiang Beiran's “anger” towards Yu Manwen last time, Shi Fenglan already knew that Jiang Beiran hated others doing things that he didn't like. Among the rules that Jiang Beiran had set with her, there was one rule that forbade her from telling others that they were playing gambling games together.

That was why Shi Fenglan did not dare to invite Ren Qiuyan over yet.

[ Option 1: Agree to Shi Fenglan's request. Reward for completion: Sound of Doom (high tier black grade)] ( Option 2: “Absolutely not.” Reward for completion: Random basic attribute points + 1]

“Tsk… why can't I avoid this dangerous person?”

As soon as Shi Fenglan finished speaking, these two options popped up in front of Jiang Beiran. Without any hesitation, Jiang Beiran chose option 2 and replied, “Absolutely no!”

Seeing that Jiang Beiran rejected her so strongly, Shi Fenglan could not help but pout, “What! I'm already begging you, just let her try to play with us one time. If you're not satisfied, I'll just let her leave, okay?”

Looking at Shi Fenglan's amorous eyes, Jiang Beiran asked seriously, “Order Master, have you told Ren Qiuyan about me?”

“No, no, not at all.” Shi Fenglan quickly shook her head.

“That's good.”

“So, on account of my good performance, you agreed?”

“No, of course not.”

Shi Fenglan, who was rejected again, sighed. She knew that she would not be able to convince Jiang Beiran. She could only say helplessly, “Little Beiran, why do you hate making new friends so much?”

“Because if you don't have expectations, you won't be disappointed. If you don't have connections, you won't get hurt.”

Blinking her eyes twice, Shi Fenglan felt that Jiang Beiran's words were very reasonable and extremely profound. Looking at Shi Fenglan, who lowered her head and was deep in thought, Jiang Beiran took out the board and asked Shi Fenglan, “Are you still going to play or not?”

“Yes, yes.”

In an instant, Shi Fenglan gave up thinking about the meaning of this sentence. She took out the Chain Fairy from her bosom and sat on her favorite seat.

On the other side, at the entrance of the sect, Gu Qinghuan, who was wearing a black and white shirt, climbed the last step and walked toward Qiyun Peak.

“Ah, it's Brother Qinghuan. You're back.”

“It's Qinghuan. What did I ask you to do last time? Good, good, good. I don't need to worry about you.” “Qinghuan, I wonder if you've found… Yes! This is the three-legged teapot. You're the most reliable person in the entire sect of returning hearts.”

On the way, almost everyone who saw Gu Qinghuan would take the initiative to greet him, and they could always leave with a happier smile.

“Alright, now that everything is done, it's time to find my senior brother.”

Tossing the four storage rings in his hand, Gu Qinghuan walked back to Huiyan Peak.
