Chapter 161 Return 1
After bidding farewell to the several big shots of Fenzhou, Jiang Beiran directly went back to the Sect of Returning Hearts. He arrived at Tianyun Peak, where Sect Master Lu was.
Although Jiang Beiran really wanted to quietly return to his own little room, when he was at the Sect of Masked Moon, Sect Master Lu had given him three valuable purple talisman seals before he left. Logically speaking, he should have e to thank him first.
After arriving outside the sect master’s residence, Jiang Beiran walked towards the two guards and cupped his hands. “Disciple of Order of Blue Heart, Jiang Beiran wishes to pay a visit to Sect Master. I wonder if you two could inform him.”
One of them sized up Jiang Beiran and said, “Alright, wait here for a moment.”
“Thank you.”
Not long after the guard had gone in to inform Sect Master, he turned back and made an inviting gesture towards Jiang Beiran. “Please follow me.”
After thanking him once again, Jiang Beiran followed the guard through the arch and into the courtyard.
After passing through the atrium, Jiang Beiran stood in front of the hall.
The hall was an important place for the sect master of Sect of Returning Hearts to meet with his friends and elders. It had to be able to control the scene.
The stuff in the hall was arranged based on the axis of the main hall. All the furnishings were arranged in a symmetrical way. Furniture, couplets, plaques, hanging screens, calligraphy and painting and the screen strips were arranged in a symmetrical manner on both sides with the axis of the main hall. At a glance, one could tell that they were very imposing.
“You may leave.” Lu Yinlong, who was sitting on the armchair in the main hall, waved at guard and spoke.
“Yes.” The guard bowed and cupped his hands, then left carefully.
After drinking a mouthful of tea, Lu Yinlong smiled at Jiang Beiran and said, “I really didn’t expect you to e back so soon.” “It’s all thanks to you, Sect Master.”
“e in.”
“Yes.”
Jiang Beiran crossed the door threshold and walked into the main hall. When he looked up, he saw a plaque with the words “Tidy and Discipline” hanging under the eaves.
“Have you finished your business with Sect Master Guan?” “Yes.” Jiang Beiran cupped his hands and answered, “I’m here to thank you for the talisman.”
“Hahaha, I’m the one who lent you out. If you do well, you’ll be saving my face. There’s no need to thank me. You earned this with your own ability.” After saying that, Lu Yinlong took another sip of his tea. He seemed to be thinking about something.
Although Lu Yinlong knew what Guan Shi’an had sent Jiang Beiran to do, he didn’t know what exactly Jiang Beiran had done, so he still wanted to ask.
However, Wu Qingce’s performance at the Gathering of Young Heroes this time had pletely exceeded his expectations. Moreover, the weapons and moves that Wu Qingce used were obtained from all the hidden places that he explored. It could be said that the benefits he had obtained from his fortuitous encounters were far more than what the sect had given him. This made Lu Yinlong, who had always been supportive of “free-range” disciples, feel that “wild” disciples were more powerful than “domesticated” ones. He also made up his mind to only focus on the results of his disciples being stronger in the future. He would not inquire too much about the process of how his disciples being stronger.
Otherwise, when those disciples found good things or places outside, they would hide them and think of leaving the sect one day so that they could enjoy the blessed land alone. That would not be worth the loss.
His had e out with his own rules. If a disciple found a mystic realm, but he could not enter the secret realm with his strength and needed the sect’s help, then they would divide the gain according to the merits. However, if the disciple entered the secret realm with his own strength and obtained some treasures, the sect would not ask where he got these treasures. They would not question him where he got the treasures.
Lu Yinlong had always thought that this was the only way to make the disciple feel more at home and not treat the sect as an enemy.
That was why he was hesitant to ask Jiang Beiran.
While Lu Yinlong was silent, three options popped up in front of Jiang Beiran.
[ Option 1: Wait in silence. Reward: Mystic Axis of Flowing Cloud (mid tier black rank)]
[ Option 2: Discuss the situation in Fengzhou with Lu Yinlong. Reward: Evil-warding Blade (mid tier yellow rank)]
[ Option 3: Tell me about Huang Yuanqing. Reward: Random basic attribute Points 1]
“Huang Yuanqing. That’s right, Sect Master Lu and Huang Yuanqing seem to have a good relationship.” Jiang Beiran thought.
At this moment, Jiang Beiran had determined that Huang Yuanqing was on the side of the Imperial Court. Then, based on the option, if he did not remind Sect Master Lu now, then Sect Master Lu would definitely initiate some sort of connection with him in this matter. In the end, he would be affected by the trouble.
After choosing option 3, Jiang Beiran cupped his hands and said, “Sect Master, both Sect Master Guan and Cult Master Yin attach great importance to the investigation of the spy of Sect of Masked Moon. There will inevitably be endless disputes in Fengzhou. Sect Master, please respond as soon as possible.”
Hearing Jiang Beiran take the initiative to bring up this matter, Lu Yinlong was quite surprised. Although he had noticed Jiang Beiran not long ago, he had learned some of Jiang Beiran’s character and knew that he didn’t like to take the initiative to show off. In fact, he even liked to hide himself.
Lu Yinlong, who was immediately interested, sat up straight and asked in a clear voice, “Oh? Then what do you think I should do to deal with it?”
After thinking for a while, Jiang Beiran lowered his head and cupped his hands. “I heard that Sect Master Guan seems to think that Sect Master Huang is also one of the organizers of that operation.”
[ Option mission pleted. Reward: Agility
Lu Yinlong was obviously stunned when he heard the words “Sect Master Huang”. “Are you talking about… The sect master of the Sect of Crimson Afterglow, Huang Yuanqing?”
“That’s right.”
Lu Yinlong couldn’t help but frown when he heard that. He looked like he was thinking about something.
“Judging from his expression, they should be good friends, but his reaction is still relatively calm. They shouldn’t be very close. In that case, it shouldn’t be a big problem.”
