I Just Won't Play By The Book
chapter-153

Reunion 1

Following the stream of people and the shouts, Jiang Beiran and the other two quickly arrived at the entrance of Luoxia Town and saw the Mo-Yun Duo who were surrounded by the townspeople.

“Sh*t… The Mo-Yun Duo is actually him? This is f*cking ridiculous!”

The Mo-Yun Duo wore a black robe and a white robe respectively. Jiang Beiran did not recognize the person in the black robe, but the person in the white robe was Li Fucheng!

The young master of the demonic cult transformed into the famous Mo-Yun Duo in the Rivernorth District. This drastic change in character shocked Jiang Beiran.

“Let me think… Let me think…” After a series of brainstorming, Jiang Beiran completed some preliminary guesses. First of all, he knew that this third young master of the Church of Blood Inferno was very old-fashioned and warm-hearted. Most importantly, he had a chivalrous spirit. It was definitely his style to roar when he saw injustice on the road.

As for why he, a mere qi refining realm cultivator, could deal with the Yellow Gang, Jiang Beiran thought of two reasons.

First, it was because of the biological father of Li Fucheng… No, Li Fucheng’s third uncle still followed him, and helped him to ward off some disturbances.

Second, someone in the Yellow Gang recognized Li Fucheng as the third young master of the Church of Blood Inferno, and they had some concerns about his identity, so they didn’t touch him. That was why he passed all the obstacles and became one of the two heroes whose reputation shook the whole region.

Other than that, there was something else that Jiang Beiran could not understand. The last time he saw Li Fucheng, he could not even defeat a few weak level 3 qi refining dregs. But now, he had already broken through to the mystic realm.

“Is this the power of the main character?!” Sighing in his heart, Jiang Beiran said to the two people behind him, “Let’s go back to the inn.”

After hearing this, Mu Yao couldn’t help but be stunned. “You really only came to take a look at them?”

“Yeah, I just wanted to get to know the influential people of the new generation in Rivernorth District first. Even if I went up to look for them now, they wouldn’t bother with

me.”

“Then I’ve waited all day for nothing.” After saying this, Mu Yao couldn’t help but pout. “If you listened to me, you would definitely have found the clues already.”

As soon as Mu Yao finished speaking, three options popped up in front of Jiang Beiran.

[ Option 1: Mock Mu Yao. Reward for completion: White Dragon Array Diagram (mid-tier black rank)]

[ Option 2: Refute Mu Yao. Reward for completion: Flower Cloud Dark Scroll (high tier yellow rank)]

[ Option 3: Ignore Mu Yao. Reward for completion: Random basic skill points + 1]

After looking at these three options, Jiang Beiran knew that he had not completely tamed this demoness. If he provoked her a little, she would rush out and show how much trouble he could get into.

After choosing option 3, Jiang Beiran turned around and walked towards the inn.

[ Option quest completed. Reward: Melody + 1]

“Sister Mu, let’s go.” Kong Qianqian pulled on Mu Yao who was still waiting for Jiang Beiran to refute.

Seeing Jiang Beiran walk away, Mu Yao let out a sigh. However, just as she was about to chase after Jiang Beiran and continue to “reason” with him, a familiar feeling suddenly arose in her heart. Jiang Beiran’s figure, which was moving further and further away, gradually overlapped with his father’s back.

When this illusion appeared, Mu Yao hurriedly shook her head. She was worried, but she somewhat understood why she could not vent her anger when she was facing Jiang Beiran. It was because Jiang Beiran did not reason with her, and he would occasionally teach her some lessons. He looked exactly like when her father picked her up.

“He treats me like a child!”

Although Mu Yao was a little angry, she knew why her father wanted Jiang Beiran to act with her.

“Sister Mu? Sister Mu? Sister Mu, don’t scare

me!”

Looking at Mu Yao stared blankly into the void, Kong Qianqian was worried sick. Kong Qianqian thought that Mu Yao had gone mad, so she quickly grabbed Mu Yao’s shoulder and shouted.

After attracting the townsfolk’s attention, Mu Yao reacted and grabbed Kong Qianqian and walked into the inn. On the way, she couldn’t help but scold her a little.

At midnight, Jiang Beiran walked out of the inn in his Suit of Blending In. At this moment, the townsfolk who were cheering on the street had already left. Only a few scavengers were still rummaging through the rubbish pile to find food that would allow them to live until the next day.

After all, even the most powerful hero in the world could not save the poor. Even if there were two heroes who suppressed the Yellow Gang, poverty was still the daily life of most people.

After searching for a while with his mind power, Jiang Beiran walked towards the other end of the street.

At this moment, in a courtyard, Tang Tingshuang brought a bowl of freshly cooked sesame paste to Li Fucheng, who was reading a book.

“Senior brother, drink something sweet to slow down.”

Li Fucheng put down the book, took a whiff of the sesame paste, and said, “It smells so good. You should sit down and eat it too.”

“I ate it when I was cooking it just now.”

“Are Xingfa and the others asleep?”.

“Yes.” Tang Tingshuang nodded. “They have gone to a lot of places in the past two days. They must be tired.” “You’ve worked hard today. You even cook sesame paste for me even though you’ve been tired all day.”

“It’s not tiring to cook sesame paste for you.”

“Shuang Shuang…”

Listening to their lovey-dovey conversation, Jiang Beiran felt a little regretful that he did not walk out earlier. It would become really awkward. It would not be good to ruin the atmosphere between the two of them.

Fortunately, the two of them were still rather shy. After staring at each other for a while, they sat down and stopped talking.

“It does smell good. Can I have a bowl too?” “Who is it?!”

Upon hearing the voice, Tang Tingshuang quickly pulled out her sword to protect Li Fucheng.

However, the surprise in Li Fucheng’s eyes was greater than the nervousness. Although he could not see the face of the person in front of him at all, nor could he use his mystic sense to see through his cultivation, he still felt that the person in front of him was very familiar.
