I Just Won't Play By The Book

431 The Great Country’s Cards (2)

“This is my friend. There’s no need to check.”Lin Yuyan asked Jiang Beiran, who was dressed in a black robe.

“Isn’t Miss Lin being shameless by saying this? Since he’s your friend, he’s naturally our big brother.”The guard said eagerly.

“Thank you very much.”

“You’re too polite.”

Nodding at the gatekeeper, Lin Yuyan led Jiang Beiran forward.

Jiang Beiran could not help but feel his balls ache when he felt the countless gazes on him. Entering the city in such a high-profile manner, even though the Lin family’s reputation was enough to suppress those little rascals, it could still attract a lot of crazy bees and butterflies.

As they were thinking, a man in a white round neck robe suddenly walked up to them. He cupped his hands at Lin Yuyan and said,””I was wondering why I kept hearing magpies chirping today. It turns out that Miss Lin has returned. What a coincidence.”

Seeing the newcomer, Lin Yuyan returned the greeting and said,””So it’s Big Brother Du. Long time no see.”

“Yeah, it’s indeed been a long time since we last met. Since we’re fated, why don’t I treat you to a drink at Yingchun Restaurant today?”

“I still have something to deal with today, so I’ll definitely pay you a visit some other day.”

Du Ming, who had been rejected, was stunned. Although he knew that Lin Yu Yan was not interested in him, if it was in the past, Lin Yu Yan would have accepted the invitation even if it was just a little polite. At most, she would keep a distance during the banquet. However, this was enough for him. After all, feelings could be slowly cultivated.

But this time, Lin Yuyan, who would never reject anyone, actually rejected him directly. This made Du Ming feel a little surprised.

‘Could it be because of him…’

Glancing at the black-robed Jiang Beiran, Du Ming cupped his fists and said,””I wonder who this brother is…”

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

[Option 1: Self-introduction. [Completion Reward: Enchantment Scroll (Earth Grade Mid-Rank)]

[Option 2: Silence. [Completion Reward: Jade Feather Spirit Book (Black Grade High Rank)]

[Option 3: Get him out of here. [Completion Reward: Random Basic Attribute Point +1]

“Crack… Kada…”

In the burning bonfire, the dry wood would crackle from time to time, and the light from the fire made Jiang Beiran’s face flicker.

Lin Yuyan held her chin as she thought about it with an infatuated expression.

On the other side, Jiang Beiran, who had finished thinking about his new skill points, stood up and said to Lin Yuyan,””Go to sleep. We’ll set off tomorrow at seven.”

“Good!” Lin Yuyan immediately stood up and extinguished the fire, then followed behind Jiang Beiran.

Pointing at the tent beside him, Jiang Beiran said,””You sleep over there.”

“Senior Brother, I…”

“Go over.”

“Oh…”

The seven prepared excuses were all stuck in her mouth. Lin Yuyan walked to her tent dejectedly.

The next morning, Lin Yuyan drew a beautiful eyebrow and looked left and right in the bronze mirror. Finally, she nodded in satisfaction and stood up to leave the tent.

Outside the tent, her senior brother was already waiting by the auspicious cloud. Lin Yuyan, who felt that she was late, quickly ran over and said,””I’m sorry, senior brother, I’m late.”

“No, it’s just that I arrived early. Let’s go to the cloud.”

“Alright.” Lin Yuyan nodded and entered the auspicious cloud.

After the time it took to brew a cup of tea, Jiang Beiran entered the auspicious cloud and soared into the sky after confirming that it was already time.

However, today’s situation was similar to yesterday’s. After flying for only half an hour, Jiang Beiran had no choice but to land by a lake.

‘Tsk… This damn place was really full of malice.’

Seeing her senior brother suddenly land back on the ground, Lin Yuyan was puzzled at first, but soon became happy.

Because she was sure that her senior brother was always like this because he wanted to spend more time alone with her.

” Aiya, Senior Brother, you should have just told me if you wanted to be alone with me. It’s fine if I don’t look for Auntie.’

Lin Yuyan jumped down from the cloud with a red face. She looked at her senior brother and said,””Senior Brother, let me prepare dinner today.”

“No need, just sit.”

After saying that, Jiang Beiran put away the cloud and went to prepare the dishes.

‘Senior Brother looks so handsome when he doesn’t want me to work.’Lin Yuyan cupped her face and said in an intoxicated manner.

This situation lasted for three days. It was not until the tenth day that Jiang Beiran finally arrived at the Qi Country’s pass.

‘What a magnificent pass…’

Seeing Jiang Beiran’s appreciative expression, Lin Yuyan introduced,””This is the Gate of God. After this, we will enter the Qi Country’s border fortress, Spirit Sea City.”

“Okay, let’s go.” Jiang Beiran nodded and walked toward the main door.

Jiang Beiran had intended to fly straight into the Qi Kingdom, but Lin Yuyan had told him that the Qi Kingdom had a National Defense Formation, and whether he tried to force his way in or sneak in, he would be stopped by the Nanming Army.

When Jiang Beiran heard the words ‘National Defense Formation’, he couldn’t help but sigh in his heart.” Dog, rich!” Compared to the miniature array on an Earth Grade Spirit Stone, the arrangement of a super-large array was several times more difficult. Generally speaking, the Mountain Defense Array Array had always been the limit of most array Masters. The more powerful ones could arrange a city defense array. As for the county or even the state defense array, even if the most powerful array masters in the country were called, they would probably have a headache.

And this Qi Country…He actually directly set up a national protection array.

‘Shocking my mother…’

Putting away the shock in his heart, Jiang Beiran followed Lin Yuyan to the pass.

Looking at the long queue at the pass, Jiang Beiran scanned the crowd with his Mentality and found that there were both ordinary people and cultivators. The cultivation levels of the cultivators varied, ranging from low level cultivators to high level cultivators of the Mystique Sovereign Realm.

Looking at the high and mighty Shengguo Li and Xuanhuang obediently queuing up, Jiang Beiran couldn’t help but feel that the great country of the Central Plains had a card to play.

“Come forward.” At the door, a great mystic cultivator gatekeeper waved his hand.

A middle-aged man nodded and stepped forward. Just as he was about to speak, the gatekeeper asked,”Who are you?”

“This old man is from the Wei family, and I am from the Luo family of the Qiming Sect…”

“Answer whatever I ask you. Why do you have to say so much?”

‘As expected of a seventh-grade official in front of the prime minister…’

Jiang Beiran, who was in the middle of the group, sighed emotionally as he watched the scene unfold.

At this moment, the person being interrogated was a Mystic Emperor. If it were the Sheng Country, if a mere great mystic cultivator dared to speak to him like this, his head would have been slapped away long ago.

Judging from the fluctuations of his aura, Jiang Beiran could sense that the Xuan Emperor was also unusually angry. However, he eventually suppressed his anger. After all, this was the Qi Kingdom, and he did not dare to be impudent.

After about the time it took to brew a cup of tea, the gatekeeper returned the clearance document to the Mystic Emperor and said,”Let’s go in.”

The Mystic Emperor, who had been interrogated for a long time, had a belly full of anger, but he still had to give the gatekeeper some benefits before walking in.

‘The emperor of such a country…It’s only interesting to do it.

For a moment, Jiang Beiran couldn’t help but yearn for it.

Soon, it was Lin Yuyan’s turn.

“Who are you?” The gatekeeper asked without raising his head as usual.

Lin Yuyan did not reply and took out her waist token.

Seeing the Lin family’s exclusive waist token, the gatekeeper immediately stood up. His attitude instantly became much more respectful. He received it with both hands and injected spiritual power into it.

When the purple-gold flower pattern appeared on the waist token, the gatekeeper made a shooing gesture and said,”Move aside, move aside. It’s the eldest daughter of the Lin family.”

Hearing that it was Miss Lin, the guards who were originally arrogant instantly split into two sides.

‘This Lin family…Looks like he’s even more powerful than I imagined.

A neutral family that did not belong to any faction could make the gatekeeper, who represented the country, so respectful. This was enough to show how high the Lin family’s reputation was in the Qi Country.

“This is my friend. There’s no need to check.”Lin Yuyan asked Jiang Beiran, who was dressed in a black robe.

“Isn’t Miss Lin being shameless by saying this? Since he’s your friend, he’s naturally our big brother.”The guard said eagerly.

“Thank you very much.”

“You’re too polite.”

Nodding at the gatekeeper, Lin Yuyan led Jiang Beiran forward.

Jiang Beiran could not help but feel his balls ache when he felt the countless gazes on him. Entering the city in such a high-profile manner, even though the Lin family’s reputation was enough to suppress those little rascals, it could still attract a lot of crazy bees and butterflies.
