Xu Youran panicked and pleaded, "Siling, please don’t do this."
"Fan has worked so hard and finally made so progress on the Martial Path. Please don’t hurt his self-esteem."
Seeing her protect Jiang Fan so vehently, Chen Silin felt that if she didn’t break them apart quickly, there would be no chance left.
She nodded and said, "Don’t worry, I won’t insult him."
"I just want to have a heartfelt talk about your future."
"If he is a responsible person, he should know how to choose."
Tap, tap, tap—
Steady footsteps were heard.
Following the maid’s guidance, Jiang Fan arrived at the backyard he had just visited.
However, this ti, he was stopped by the maid before entering.
"The backyard is only for won. Please stay here and wait for Miss’s instructions."
Jiang Fan froze for a mont.
How did he get in just now?
"Are you Jiang Fan, Youran’s fiancé?"
Through a wall, he heard a familiar voice, which indeed belonged to Chen Silin.
The aggressive tone made Jiang Fan touch his nose. How could this girl have two faces?
Facing him as a Soul Master, she was obedient.
Assuming a different identity, she beca ferocious.
"Yes, that’s ." Jiang Fan wrote a note and threw it over the wall.
Chen Silin had a servant pick it up, scanned it, and said, "I am Youran’s good friend. Now I want to ask you a few questions, please answer honestly."
"First, when you marry Youran, do you genuinely like her, or do you want to curry favor with the Xu Family, living off her?"
Uh—
Living off her?
Xu Youran showed a look of pleading, asking Chen Silin not to embarrass Jiang Fan like this.
Currently, Jiang Fan was holess and entirely reliant on the Xu Family for support.
If others said he was living off soone, he had no way to refute it.
Chen Silin’s sharp gaze made her feel that the first question alone could render Jiang Fan speechless.
Unexpectedly.
A few brand-new silver notes flew over the courtyard wall.
Chen Silin was stunned, slightly shocked.
Five silver notes, each valued at ten thousand taels, totaling fifty thousand taels!
They were even from the sa bank where she had given notes to that Soul Master.
Xu Youran was also surprised, "Fan, where did you get so much money?"
Fifty thousand taels of silver notes were beyond what Jiang Fan could own.
Jiang Fan simply smiled and threw over another note, "Miss Chen, you can ask the second question now."
With fifty thousand taels of silver notes, it was enough for both of them to live well.
The claim of living off soone was easily dispelled.
Chen Silin was a bit stunned, thinking where soone who had been living under others’ roofs for ten years could get so much silver?
Originally intending to discourage Jiang Fan, she was unexpectedly shown up by him.
Slightly annoyed, she asked again, "Even if you have so savings, can you protect Youran?"
"Our Lonely Boat City is still considered peaceful. The outside world is cutthroat and ruthless. Are you sure you can protect him?"
Soone as beautiful as Xu Youran would be coveted wherever she went.
Without strength, she could not be protected.
Chen Silin thought that soone like Jiang Fan, without cultivation, was not capable of protecting her.
On the contrary, he would only drag her down.
Hearing no response from the other side, Chen Silin thought she had hit his sore spot and continued proudly, "If you truly like Xu Youran, let go. You cannot protect her..."
Before she could finish speaking.
The wall between them suddenly cracked open with a huge hole, revealing Jiang Fan’s lower half.
Chen Silin imdiately sensed Jiang Fan’s realm, astonished, "Seventh Layer of Qi Cultivation?"
At this age, such a realm, within Lonely Boat City, was considered a top-level expert!
She blinked hard, incredulous, seeking confirmation from Xu Youran, "Isn’t it said that he doesn’t have a Spirit Root?"
Xu Youran smiled bitterly, "Maybe he has been cultivating in silence all along, and we just didn’t know."
Chen Silin was dumbfounded.
What made her furious was Jiang Fan’s provocative note that followed, "Any more questions?"
Chen Silin gritted her teeth slightly, "This guy, how smug he is!"
"So what if you have so cultivation? What can you give Youran?"
"If she marries into a wealthy household, she can get endless resources and various cultivation techniques. Do you have those?"
She believed this was the Achilles’ heel for soone like Jiang Fan without a background.
Jiang Fan might have so money, so cultivation.
But resources and top-grade techniques were the core assets of wealthy families.
These were sothing a poor boy could never possess.
Silence ensued for a long ti, with barely audible sounds of ripping. She thought Jiang Fan, out of frustration, was destroying things and couldn’t help but feel a bit remorseful.
If it weren’t absolutely necessary, she wouldn’t want to hurt soone unjustly.
So, her tone softened a bit as she spoke, "Jiang Fan, I don’t an to target you."
"It’s just that Youran’s fate is too bitter. I hope you can let go and let her marry soone worthy."
"If you agree to give up the engagent, I am willing to provide you with so top-grade Qi Cultivation Liquid as compensation."
"Is that acceptable?"
But there was still no response from the other side.
After a while, a small bundle was thrown over.
Chen Silin was surprised and had the maid pick it up. She unpacked it in front of Xu Youran.
Five bottles of top-grade Qi Cultivation Liquid erged in front of her eyes.
"Top-grade Qi Cultivation Liquid? Where did you get it?"
Chen Silin’s face was filled with shock.
Top-grade Qi Cultivation Liquid was exclusively sold by the Chen Family, limited to one bottle per person. It was impossible for anyone to buy five bottles at once!
Could he have hired people to grab them?
"This guy really has so money, huh."
Chen Silin admitted that she had underestimated Jiang Fan’s financial strength.
"However, these five bottles are nothing, right?"
Chen Silin said, then noticed a torn cover of a naless technique at the bottom of the bundle.
Was he tearing this just now?
Chen Silin picked it up, bewildered, "You can’t be telling this is a technique, right?"
But as soon as Chen Silin opened and glanced at the first page, she sprang up from her chair, her dainty visage filled with shock.
"Yellow Level High ntal thod!!!"
She gasped, incredulous.
In Lonely Boat City, the best technique the largest wealthy family could offer was only Yellow Level dium!
Yet Jiang Fan gifted Xu Youran a Yellow Level High ntal thod!
This was a top-grade resource that no wealthy family could offer!
At this mont.
Another note from Jiang Fan was thrown over.
"Any more questions?"
Chen Silin, who initially intended to deter Jiang Fan, was now harshly schooled by him.
As a young mistress, Chen Silin had never been treated this way before.
Gritting her teeth, she grabbed a treasured sword from the table, shouting, "Co here!"
"I want to see if you still have your bravado in front of !"
Xu Youran tugged at Chen Silin’s sleeve, laughing and crying, "Siling, let it go."
They were supposed to just talk. How did it turn to this?
Can’t you take it anymore?
Chen Silin, furious, said, "Don’t stop ! I must teach him a lesson today!"
In her glaring eyes.
A tall figure dressed in a green robe slowly walked through the moon gate.
Jiang Fan’s appearance imdiately etched into her eyes.
With just one look, Chen Silin felt as if struck by lightning, frozen in place.
