I Just Won't Play By The Book
chapter-164-30041322

Zhang Heqing snorted in disdain. He continued, “In my opinion, it’s because Wu Qingce has extremely high talent and not because of his teaching. Coupled with the fortuitous encounters Wu Qingce had when he went out, that’s why he’s able to reach such a high level.” After saying that, Zhang Heqing looked at Jiang Beiran and said, “Don’t you think so?”

“I think so too.”

“Fortunately, Law Protector Yu saw through him and didn’t fall for this scoundrel’s trick. How can this person be so shameless? Law Protector Yu has already rejected him, yet he still pesters her all day long. It’s really disgusting.”

At this moment, Jiang Beiran really wanted to teach Zhang Heqing what it meant to be “six of one, half of dozen of the other”. They were both simping… No, they were both doing it for love, so why did they have to hurt each other. They should have become good friends for the same hobby. Of course, he couldn’t say these things out loud. Jiang Beiran could only nod and agree, “Such actions are really disgusting!”

Nodding, Zhang Heqing continued, “So if you meet Law Protector Yu at the Order of Water Mirror tomorrow, let her come to my place to admire the flowers.” “What kind of logic is this… why did she want to come?” Although he wanted to complain, Jiang Beiran still nodded and said, “I know.”

“Well, thank you for our cooperation. You should go back and rest early today.”

“Yes, I’ll take my leave.”

Jiang Beiran cupped his hands toward Zhang Heqing and left the main hall.

After paying his respects to his superiors, Jiang Beiran went straight back to the back of the mountain and used his mystic energy to scan Gu Qinghuan in his second cultivation place.

Pushing open the door of the cultivation room, Jiang Beiran looked at Gu Qinghuan, who was emitting green mystic energy, and nodded with satisfaction.

“It seems that he has indeed mastered it.”

Before Jiang Beiran left, he had taught Gu Qinghuan the Abstruse Stars Technique. Moreover, it was different from the previous times when he tried his best to learn the skill but failed to comprehend it. When he was learning the Abstruse Stars Technique, he could not master it in one or two days. However, he could feel that he was very suitable for this skill, and he would definitely be able to master it.

Now that Gu Qinghuan had finally found a cultivation method that was suitable for him, Jiang Beiran actually felt like his own child had finally passed the entrance examination of an university.

Without interrupting Gu Qinghuan’s cultivation, Jiang Beiran to the door and started to prepare to set up the formation.

Roughly after two hours, the green mystic energy on Gu Qinghuan’s body slowly dissipated. His entire body was emitting hot steam. He then slowly opened his eyes.

“Eh?!”

Realizing that the door of the cultivation room was open, Gu Qinghuan suddenly stood up and ran out of the cultivation room.

Seeing his senior brother taking out small stones and placing them on the ground, Gu Qinghuan hurriedly ran over and shouted, “Greetings, Brother Jiang!” Jiang Beiran looked at Gu Qinghuan and said, “Your made some good progress on your cultivation. It seems that this Abstruse Stars Technique is very suitable for you.”

“Yes, I will definitely cultivate well to repay your kindness.” After saying that, Gu Qinghuan took out a yellow storage ring and handed it to Jiang Beiran with both hands. “Brother Jiang, these are the materials you asked me to look for before you left. They are all inside.”

“Oh? The Purple Marrow Iron is also inside?”

“Yes!”

“Not bad. You did not forget the task I gave you while you were cultivating with high intensity. You did a good job.”

“Your order is always my first priority.”

Nodding his head in satisfaction, Jiang Beiran asked, “How do you feel after you’ve learned the Abstruse Stars Technique?”

After hearing that, Gu Qinghuan cupped his hands and answered, “Before I mastered the Abstruse Stars Technique. Most of the time, I couldn’t execute a complete set of moves due to the lack of mystic energy. However, ever since I mastered the Abstruse Stars Technique , I can feel my body absorbing the surrounding spiritual essence on its own. Although it’s not obvious yet, I believe that as long as I continue to cultivate, the mystic energy in my body will become endless.”

“Okay.” Jiang Beiran took out a blue porcelain bottle from his storage ring and threw it at Gu Qinghuan.

Seeing Gu Qinghuan reach out to catch it, Jiang Beiran said, “This is an Ice Spirit Pill. I can feel that the temperature in your body is extremely high when you practice. I’m afraid that it will cause a lot of damage to your body in the long run. This Ice Spirit Pill can help you alleviate a lot of heat.”

“Thank you, Brother Jiang!” Gu Qinghuan answered firmly.

For him, the biggest difficulty in practicing the Abstruse Stars Technique was the rising temperature in his body, which made it difficult for him to concentrate. Moreover, his body could not withstand the high temperature for a long time, so the efficiency of his cultivation was quite low, now that he had the ice spirit pill from his senior brother, the situation could finally be improved.

Putting away the Ice Spirit Pill, Gu Qinghuan cupped his hands again and said, “Also, I have something to report to you.”

“Go ahead.” “Brother Wu entered the Pavilion of Returning Hearts three days ago. He said that Sect Master wanted him to cultivate in seclusion for a while, so he will probably stay there for at least ten days.”

“Pavilion of Returning Hearts…”

Jiang Beiran nodded after hearing that. The Pavilion of Returning Hearts was the most important place in the Sect of Returning Hearts besides the sect temple. It contained all kinds of cultivation methods collected by Sect of Returning Hearts. Wu Qingce must have gained a lot from it this time.

“Okay, I got it.” After saying that, Jiang Beiran took out two small stones from his storage ring. “Go back and rest as soon as you finish your cultivation.”

After saying that, he continued to set up the formation with the small stones.

“Yes.” Gu Qinghuan cupped his hands toward Jiang Beiran and walked down the mountain.

After setting up the rudiments of the mountain protection formation, Jiang Beiran returned to his original cultivation ground.

He looked at the flowers, looked at the bamboos, and then looked at his little cuties in the backyard. He found that they were all well taken care of by Gu Qinghuan, so he didn’t need to worry too much about them.

After feeding the little cuties some food, Jiang Beiran returned to his bedroom and lay on the bed.

Stretching his body, Jiang Beiran sighed, “It’s still the most comfortable to lie on my own bed.”

“Huh?!”

Through his own bed, Jiang Beiran thought of the bed in the inn yesterday, then the inn, and then…

“Kong Qianqian.”

Jiang Beiran finally remembered what he had forgotten. Previously, Mu Yao had been taken away by her third uncle. It was probably impossible for her to return to the inn and bring Kong Qianqian along with her. In other words, there was a high probability that Kong Qianqian was still waiting for them alone in the

inn.

“But Mu Yao will probably think of a way to bring Kong Qianqian back.” Thinking of this, Jiang Beiran slowly closed his eyes.

“Forget it, I’ll go and take a look tomorrow.”

Although he had not agreed to Kong Qianqian’s request to become her master, she always called him mister politely along the journey. It would be quite pitiful to just leave her in Luoxia Town alone.

After making this decision, Jiang Beiran quickly fell asleep.

The next morning, Jiang Beiran was about to go down the mountain to Luoxia Town when he suddenly remembered that he had not tried the effects of the Cloud-curling Tube yet. He might as well take this opportunity to try it.

Therefore, Jiang Beiran took out the Cloud-curling Tube from his storage ring and blew it. A big cloud that looked like cotton candy quickly took shape.

After drilling into the cloud, Jiang Beiran found that the space inside was much larger than he had imagined. It was as if he was in a fairyland surrounded by cloud

“Rise.”

With a thought from Jiang Beiran, the cloud floated into the air obediently.

After it merged with the other clouds Jiang Beiran had the idea of moving forward in the direction of Luoxia Town.

In the next second, a wonderful feeling arose in his heart. Because he could see below the cloud when he let the cloud moved forward, he did not feel that he was moving quickly. However, if he took a look at the scenery below, he could understand that he was moving at a speed that far exceeded his usual speed.

After a short while, the cloud had already arrived above Luoxia Town, which gave Jiang Beiran a whole new understanding of this magical item.

“It seems that not only is it excellent at hiding its aura, its speed is also quite top-notch.”

After ordering the cloud to land in an empty space, Jiang Beiran walked into the small town and quickly entered the inn.

“Dong! Dong! Dong!”

Jiang Beiran raised his hand and knocked on the door three times.

Then, before he could put down his hand, the door of the room was opened.

“Sir!” Kong Qianqian shouted with surprise, “You’re finally back! I haven’t slept all night and have been waiting for you and senior sister.”

Jiang Beiran, who suddenly felt a little pity for Kong Qianqian, said, “Let’s go in first.” “Okay.” She happily closed the door and followed Jiang Beiran to sit in front of the table. Kong Qianqian picked up the kettle and poured Jiang Beiran a cup of tea and asked.

“Sir, can you tell me what a weenie is?”
