Chapter 241: Chapter 241: Complaining
Yi Lianxing.
The Yi Lianxing who was always so high and mighty.
Was actually serving tea to Jiang Fan?
She felt a mont of disorientation.
Wondering if there was so kind of mistake.
Other than her own master, Yi Lianxing probably wouldn’t show such respect to anyone.
...
She walked in with suspicion, warily staring at Yi Lianxing, and said:
“You didn’t put anything dirty in this tea, did you?”
Yi Lianxing and Yuan Zhiyu had always been at odds.
Now, she was politely serving tea to Jiang Fan, hoping to gain his favor and make a friend.
Yuan Zhiyu jumped in to question the tea’s integrity.
Who wouldn’t be furious?
“Yuan Zhiyu!” Yi Lianxing shouted, “Junior Brother Jiang is present, so I won’t argue with you today.”
“But you’d better watch your words, or don’t bla for being rude!”
Jiang Fan was taken aback for a mont.
From their interactions, it seed like the two won didn’t get along very well.
He took the tea and drank a sip in front of Yuan Zhiyu, trying to defuse the situation, and said:
“Senior Sister Yuan, you’ve misunderstood.”
“This senior sister was just kindly pouring a cup of tea.”
Kindly pouring tea?
Yuan Zhiyu couldn’t see a shred of kindness in Yi Lianxing.
She warned, “Junior Brother Jiang, you’re new to the Spirit Beast Sect and don’t know what kind of a tyrant this senior sister is in the sect.”
“She’s like a fox celebrating the New Year with chickens. Don’t trust her.”
Yi Lianxing clenched her fists tightly.
She looked ready to fight Yuan Zhiyu.
She was trying to befriend Jiang Fan, but Yuan Zhiyu was revealing her true nature.
However, she noticed that Yuan Zhiyu and Jiang Fan seed to know each other.
And they seed to be quite familiar with each other.
This made her hesitant to act rashly. She turned to Jiang Fan with a wronged expression and said:
“I did not, Junior Brother Jiang. Don’t believe her lies.”
Yuan Zhiyu countered, “It’s your words that can’t be trusted!”
Yi Lianxing struggled to control her anger and said, “Do you think you’re any less tyrannical? How dare you accuse others!”
Yuan Zhiyu retorted, “Not as arrogant as you!”
“You’re the arrogant one.”
“No, you are!”
…
The many female disciples in the hall watched blankly as the two argued.
They were stunned.
The two won, who were usually so domineering in the sect, were now fiercely arguing over Jiang Fan’s trust.
After a mont of shock, neither of them could make a compelling argunt.
Yuan Zhiyu said angrily, “Junior Brother Jiang, do you believe her, or ?”
Yi Lianxing also said, “Junior Brother Jiang, since you arrived at the Task Hall, have I ever treated you poorly? Are my words not trustworthy?”
Both of them looked intensely at Jiang Fan.
Putting him in a tough spot.
Just then.
A female disciple hurriedly ran to Yi Lianxing and whispered, “Senior Sister, your cousin is here.”
“He’s looking for you all over the sect.”
Lu Xinghe?
Yi Lianxing’s delicate brows furrowed. Why did he have to co at this mont?
She was at a critical mont in gaining Jiang Fan’s trust over Yuan Zhiyu.
But Lu Xinghe seed to be in a hurry and couldn’t be ignored.
She reluctantly said to Jiang Fan, “Junior Brother Jiang, Senior Sister has sothing to attend to and will be right back.”
With that, she hurriedly left.
Yuan Zhiyu finally smiled, revealing her white teeth: “Junior Brother Jiang, long ti no see.”
She looked at Jiang Fan with a smile.
Noticing that after just a month, Jiang Fan had completely transford!
His skin was fair and flawless, like polished jade, without a single blemish.
She couldn’t help but feel a tinge of jealousy, teasing:
“No wonder Junior Brother Jiang can make that proud woman serve you tea.”
Jiang Fan rolled his eyes.
Didn’t he have enough rumors already?
“What brings you here, Senior Sister Yuan?” Jiang Fan asked.
Yuan Zhiyu said, “Isn’t it because I was worried about you?”
“I heard you provoked Yi Lianxing’s cousin. I was afraid you’d get into trouble.”
“Who knew I was overthinking it? Junior Brother Jiang conquered her with just one look.”
Wait!
Jiang Fan was taken aback for a mont and said, “Was that really Senior Sister Yi Lianxing just now?”
Yuan Zhiyu was even more surprised: “What? You didn’t know who she was?”
So all this while, she was the reinforcent brought by Lu Xinghe.
Jiang Fan was speechless and muttered:
“It seems she’s not that hard to deal with.”
“If you reason with her, she might not side with Lu Xinghe.”
Yuan Zhiyu frowned and said, “How is that possible?”
“You’ve only t Yi Lianxing once.”
“Lu Xinghe is her pride and joy. You injured him, how could she let you go?”
“To avoid trouble, you should co with to see the Sect Master.”
“She’ll be very happy to know you’re here.”
She knew very well how much regret Jiang Fan had left in Gong Caiyi’s heart.
Knowing he ca to the Spirit Beast Sect would surely surprise her.
Jiang Fan didn’t mind eting Gong Caiyi, but now wasn’t the right ti.
“I’m still waiting for the local deacon to bring the task reward.”
Yuan Zhiyu was puzzled: “Task reward?”
She was a bit confused.
The Spirit Beast Sect rarely had tasks for outsiders, right?
Even if there were, they were extrely difficult, not sothing a junior disciple like Jiang Fan could complete.
“What task did you complete?”
Jiang Fan said, “The Black Lotus Bounty Order.”
Hmm?
Yuan Zhiyu blinked and said, “Junior Brother Jiang, since when do you make jokes?”
The Black Lotus Bounty Order had been around for years, right?
During that ti, even Core Formation martial artists tried to eliminate the Black Lotus bandits, but they moved like shadows.
They couldn’t even be found, let alone eliminated?
What realm was Jiang Fan at?
How could he complete this task?
This had to be a joke, right?
However, soon, a scene that left Yuan Zhiyu dumbfounded unfolded.
The Task Hall deacon ca running back, out of breath.
His face was filled with excitent: “Junior Brother Jiang… Sect Master Gong requests you… to co to Sect Master Peak.”
“She wants to et you personally…”
Completing the Black Lotus Bounty Order had directly caught her attention.
She was very curious about who completed this task.
Thus, she wanted to et the task completer personally.
Jiang Fan thought for a mont and said, “Alright.”
Just as Yuan Zhiyu had suggested, it was a good way to avoid conflict with Yi Lianxing and her cousin.
“Please lead the way.” Jiang Fan followed the Task Hall deacon.
After a while, he noticed Yuan Zhiyu hadn’t followed.
He turned around and was surprised, “Senior Sister Yuan, what’s wrong?”
Yuan Zhiyu snapped out of it, looking at Jiang Fan in shock.
“You… you really completed the Black Lotus Bounty Order?”
“How did you do it?”
She couldn’t figure out how Jiang Fan, being alone, completed such a difficult task.
Jiang Fan laughed and said, “Sect Master Gong will ask the sa question later.”
“I’ll answer both of you then.”
With that, Yuan Zhiyu, full of doubts, walked with him side by side.
Outside the hall.
Yi Lianxing looked at Lu Xinghe, whose face was covered in blood, listening to his tearful complaints.
She was instantly furious.
“Outrageous!”
“Who dares to ignore , Yi Lianxing?”
“To bully you like this, and still dare to stay in our Spirit Beast Sect?”
“Is this a challenge to ?”
