Chapter 742: Chapter 742: Enemies on a Narrow Road
“A little rascal?”
Gu Xin’er was stunned.
The devoted husband she admired was actually that little rascal?
For a mont, she couldn’t accept it.
How could two such extre people be the sa person?
“Am I seeing things?”
She tried closing her eyes briefly.
When she opened them again, it was still Jiang Fan’s detestable face.
Thinking of him threatening her with aphrodisiacs and playing her in circles.
Suddenly she was filled with anger.
With a tap of her toe, she was about to dash and kill him: “This ti he won’t get away!”
But the hairpin sighed and said, “If you make a move, the Heavenly chanism Pavilion Master will have to intervene.”
“Don’t let things escalate beyond control.”
Hmm?
Gu Xin’er abruptly stopped.
She ca to do business, not to make enemies with a Nascent Soul expert who governed a land of the Human Clan.
Her eyebrows raised as she said:
“But the Heavenly chanism Pavilion Master just looked at the little rascal’s portrait and said he didn’t recognize him.”
“Why would the Pavilion Master intervene for soone he doesn’t even know?”
The hairpin smiled helplessly and said, “Think it over carefully, how did the Pavilion Master reply to you?”
Gu Xin’er frowned, “I asked him if he recognized the person in the portrait.”
“He replied, saying he didn’t know…”
“Wait, he said he hadn’t seen!”
The hairpin said aningfully, “Got it now?”
“Not seeing, ans he hasn’t seen the person in person.”
“It doesn’t an he didn’t recognize who was in the portrait.”
“His evasive answer was clearly to protect Jiang Fan, not wanting you to harm him.”
Gu Xin’er suddenly realized!
An answer that seed similar on the surface had such a wide gap in aning.
“Ugh, playing word gas!”
Gu Xin’er felt a bit deceived.
The hairpin continued, “I heard the Heavenly chanism Pavilion is recruiting disciples lately.”
“This person must be one of them.”
Gu Xin’er was taken aback, “How co?”
“Isn’t he a disciple of the Ten Thousand Tribulations Holy Temple?”
The hairpin chuckled, “A Ten Thousand Tribulations Holy Temple disciple who can use Cloud Shadow and has Fragrant Corpse Pills?”
Gu Xin’er exclaid, “Master, are you saying he’s a loose cultivator?”
“Relying on his own abilities, mastering Cloud Shadow to perfection?”
“Isn’t that unbelievable?”
“Many elite disciples of the Ten Thousand Tribulations Holy Temple find it hard even under their elders’ guidance.”
“To achieve it alone, what kind of talent does that require?”
The hairpin said, “That’s why the Heavenly chanism Pavilion Master is protecting him.”
“Give it up.”
“Since he has the Pavilion Master backing him, and you might not be able to outwit him.”
“Don’t cause yourself trouble.”
Gu Xin’er was infuriated.
They said she couldn’t outplay Jiang Fan?
What a joke?
She would prove it to her master.
She glared at Jiang Fan.
Calmly, she retreated back to the Heavenly chanism Pavilion, humming lightly:
“I won’t leave!”
“Not until I have him completely under my thumb!”
The hairpin smiled silently.
Clearly.
She was deliberately provoking Gu Xin’er.
She thought to herself:
“With by your side helping you, your realm has improved too quickly, but your temperant hasn’t matured enough.”
“This boy’s cautiousness, cunning, and sches are what you need to learn.”
“Let him hone you well, learn from his strengths.”
“If it really helps you grow, I might even give him an opportunity.”
Gu Xin’er was too young.
She had a powerful realm, but lacked the corresponding temperant.
If she clashed with those Nascent Soul old monsters, Gu Xin’er could easily suffer a great loss.
She had always wanted to find an opportunity to train Gu Xin’er well.
But there had never been a suitable chance.
If she were to be honed by those Nascent Soul monsters, there was fear she might get hurt or even lose her life.
If by those of Core Formation Realm, her cultivation might be too high, suppressing them and not receiving effective honing.
Jiang Fan’s appearance, however, made her eyes shine.
This boy wasn’t strong enough to harm Gu Xin’er.
But his cunning and tactics weren’t inferior to those of Nascent Soul monsters, enough to make Gu Xin’er shout in anger.
If she let Jiang Fan slip by.
She wouldn’t find a more suitable candidate.
Therefore, she smiled and suggested, “You should disguise yourself as a loose cultivator disciple from abroad and join the Heavenly chanism Pavilion.”
“That way, as a fellow disciple, you can approach Jiang Fan for revenge.”
Since it was ant to be training, a long-term interaction was best.
“Ha?”
Gu Xin’er widened her eyes, “Is it that hard to handle him once?”
“Do I really need to go through all this trouble to beco a disciple of the Heavenly chanism Pavilion just to get close to him?”
“Master, you’re underestimating , aren’t you?”
She felt her dignity was being insulted.
The hairpin chuckled hoarsely, “Well, see what you do then.”
Gu Xin’er’s striking eyes turned.
When her gaze fell on Liu Qingxian, she couldn’t help but giggle.
“I have an idea.”
She smiled cunningly, like a little fox, and quietly slipped into the shadows.
On the other side.
Jiang Fan looked toward the Heavenly chanism Pavilion gate as if sensing sothing.
Perhaps it was just an illusion.
It felt like he was being watched by sothing.
“Fan, what’s wrong?”
Liu Qingxian asked curiously.
Jiang Fan thought for a mont, shook his head slightly, and said, “It’s nothing.”
“Why are you at the Heavenly chanism Pavilion?”
He had always been puzzled.
The Heavenly chanism Pavilion Master announced the list of the three won who were selected, but Liu Qingxian seed to have vanished.
When he asked Liu Wuchen, he stamred and didn’t give a clear answer.
It turns out, Liu Qingxian had already arrived at the Heavenly chanism Pavilion ahead of everyone.
Liu Qingxian clung tightly to Jiang Fan’s waist, leaning on his shoulder, and said:
“Before you carried out the mission for Concubine Yunxia, didn’t I accept a task?”
Jiang Fan recalled, vaguely rembering it.
Liu Qingxian intended to join, but before leaving, she accepted a task and left first.
“My task was to do chores at the Heavenly chanism Pavilion.”
“But they didn’t let do any work at all.”
“They just asked to cultivate well, and occasionally so seniors would co to guide .”
“Especially Vice Pavilion Masters You Yunzi and Gu Huaxi.”
“They ca by every few days to teach and even gifted quite a few Spirit Pills.”
Jiang Fan suddenly understood.
It turned out the Heavenly chanism Pavilion Master had planned the entry of the three won well ahead, after the war at Boundary Mountain.
“The Pavilion Master of Heavenly chanism has treated kindly.”
“The two Vice Pavilion Masters have also been very good to .”
Looking toward the Heavenly chanism Pavilion gates, he was filled with gratitude.
Turning around, he called out to the backs of the Spirit Beasts: “Youran, Silin, let’s go!”
Xu Youran and Chen Silin ca along.
They had been quietly watching the two being lovey-dovey.
But they didn’t interrupt.
They also ca?
Liu Qingxian’s heart skipped a beat and quickly moved out of Jiang Fan’s embrace.
She thought Xu Youran would reprimand her.
But to her surprise.
Xu Youran rely glanced at her without a word.
Gently taking hold of Jiang Fan’s arm, she said:
“Husband, after our master ceremony, let’s visit Vice Pavilion Master Gu and Vice Pavilion Master You.”
“Thanks to them for taking good care of Senior Sister Liu these days.”
Jiang Fan nodded, “Of course, we’ll go.”
“Let’s head inside first.”
The two walked side by side into the Heavenly chanism Pavilion.
Liu Qingxian, feeling sowhat unwilling, looked at the two.
She wanted to hold Jiang Fan’s other arm.
But as she saw Xu Youran’s back.
She ultimately couldn’t summon the courage to confront her head-on and could only fall half a step behind with Chen Silin.
Inside the Heavenly chanism Pavilion.
Ruan Qingsu looked at her master with a mix of crying and laughter:
“Master, why are you dolling up so much?”
She sat in front of the dressing mirror.
Her master, Lin Yuheng, was ticulously applying makeup for her.
This kind of treatnt made Ruan Qingsu feel exceptionally flattered.
Lin Yuheng bead, “Today, Jiang Fan is joining the Heavenly chanism Pavilion.”
“You can’t catch a wolf with nothing as bait.”
“Dear disciple, you’ll have to make a little sacrifice today.”
