I Just Won't Play By The Book

398 Retreat (1)

“Sigh…”

In a large tent, Meng Sipei sighed with both hands supporting her chin. Her face was full of worry.

Although a day had passed, Meng Sipei still felt like she was immersed in the miasma. It was as if she could see the figure that made her feel at ease whenever she turned around.

However, it was only a vague impression.

Just as he was sighing, the curtain of the tent was lifted. Wan Anqing walked in from the outside, followed by Hong Yaxuan, who looked back from time to time.

Meng Si, who heard the noise, quickly stood up and bowed.”Grandmaster.”

Wan Anqing nodded and sized up Meng Sipei.”It seems like you’re still feeling uneasy.”

Meng Sipei lowered her head and said softly,””I’ve embarrassed myself in front of the sect master.”

“Since the matter is over, we have to look forward.”Wan Anqing sat down on a chair.” How’s the investigation today?”

Meng Sipei cupped her hands and replied,” Sect Master, Fang Huyin has collected enough miasma. We can start refining pills after we return to the sect. In addition, we have left marks in the towns and villages along the way. We have marked the items that may be used as a medium.””

“Good. For such a major event, our Square Sect cannot be left behind.”Wan Anqing took a sip of tea and continued,””The new emperor chosen by Feng Province is indeed interesting. Although he doesn’t have any cultivation, he can discover many problems that we have overlooked.”

Meng Sipei replied,”It seems that the emperor is indeed capable to receive such praise from the sect master.””

“Yes, so I think we shouldn’t completely ignore the emperor. In addition, under the current situation, we should tide over the difficulties with Feng Province, so I think we should send someone to the palace to congratulate him and confirm his identity. Sipei, what do you think?”

“Sect Master is wise.” Meng Sipei cupped her hands and said,” Through this incident, we can indeed see the ambitions of those villains in the Liang Country. Under such circumstances, we should work together with Feng Province to eliminate the foreign enemies.””

“Yes.” Wan Anqing nodded.” Then who do you think should be chosen to send this congratulatory gift?”

As soon as Wan Anqing finished speaking, Hong Yaxuan, who was standing behind him, hurriedly took a step forward and cupped her hands in salute.”Disciple is willing to go!”

Seeing Hong Yaxuan taking the initiative, Wan Anqing was stunned at first. Then, he thought for a moment and said,”That’s good too. The disciple of the old Daoist has personally given him a gift. It can be considered as giving the emperor a favor. However, Xuan ‘er…”

Looking at her master’s gaze that was sizing her up, Hong Yaxuan blushed for no reason and quickly lowered her head.

Wan Anqing smiled knowingly, and even Meng Sipei, who was beside him, saw some clues.

“Hahaha, no wonder you lost your composure the first time you met the emperor. So that’s why, so that’s why…”

“Master… I… I didn’t.” Hong Yaxuan hurriedly waved her hand.

“There’s no need to explain. Don’t worry, master is not an old fogey. Although the emperor doesn’t have much cultivation, he does have some outstanding points.”

“It really isn’t! Master, you misunderstood! I’m just…”

“Alright, there’s no need to say anything more. Whether it’s true or not, you can decide for yourself. Then I’ll leave the task of giving the gifts to you. If you want to stay in the palace for a while longer after giving the gifts, Master will also allow it in advance.”

Hong Yaxuan, who knew that she couldn’t explain herself in a short time, could only cup her hands and salute,” Thank you, Master.

Looking at Hong Yaxuan’s flushed face, Meng Sipei, who roughly understood what had happened, suddenly felt a little emotional. She couldn’t help but say,””Yaxuan, if you really meet someone you like, don’t hesitate. Otherwise, it’s too late to regret.”

Hearing the Vice Sect Master’s serious tone, Hong Yaxuan did not care about her shyness. She looked up at the Vice Sect Master and said,””Disciple will remember Vice Sect Leader’s teachings.”

Sitting on the chair, looking at the two people, Wan Anqing couldn’t help but stroke his beard, sighing, could it be that spring had arrived?

On the other side, Jiang Beiran, who had learned of Ji Qinglin’s ambitions, chatted with him for a long time and gradually understood some of his character.

To put it simply, it was worth it.

“After saying so much, can you drink with me now?”Ji Qinglin, who also felt that Jiang Beiran had hit it off with him, grabbed the wine jar and said.

Jiang Beiran was about to agree when two options popped up. contemporary romance

[Option 1: Have a drink with Ji Qinglin. [Completion Reward: Floating Light Demon Record (Black Level High-Rank)]

[Option 2: Farewell. [Completion Reward: Random Basic Skill Point +1]

“Hmm?”

Jiang Beiran was indeed a little confused when he saw the option once again mention this matter. He didn’t know why it was so dangerous to drink with Ji Qinglin.

After choosing the second option, Jiang Beiran stood up and cupped his fists.””I really can’t stand drinking. It’s already late, and I still have a lot of miasma-related matters to take care of, so I’ll take my leave.”

[Mission completed. Reward: Alchemy +1]

After saying that, Jiang Beiran left the tent without looking back.

“Sigh! This brat…” Seeing Jiang Beiran leave so decisively, Ji Qinglin didn’t blame him for being rude. After all, from the conversation just now, he understood why his master had chosen this little disciple and felt that he might really be able to bring change to the Sheng Kingdom.

‘It’s just that her temper is a little strange…But unexpectedly, it’s quite to my liking.

Ji Qinglin shook his head and picked up the wine jar. Gulp… He gulped down a few mouthfuls.

..

“Boom!”

Just as Jiang Beiran was about to greet his sect leader, a loud noise came from behind him. Then, he saw Ji Qinglin flying into the air with his jar of Spring Brocade in his arms.
