I Just Won't Play By The Book

Chapter 72 Order Master Shi Is Different Today

Looking at the book of internal cultivation method on the table in front of him, how could Jiang Beiran not understand it.

He wondered why his senior brother would suddenly ask him for the pills. It turned out that his purpose was to have a legitimate reason to give the internal cultivation method to him.

Jiang Beiran didn’t reveal his strength to his senior brother. In Lu Bogui’s eyes, Jiang Beiran was still the weak junior brother who had entered the sect five years ago and was only at level five of the Qi cultivating stage.

Therefore, as the senior brother who had brought Jiang Beiran into the sect, he had to do something. Jiang Beiran did not reject Lu Bogui’s good intentions. He directly accepted the internal cultivation method book and bowed. “Thank you, senior brother.”

“What are you thanking me for? It’s an equivalent exchange.” Lu Bogui finished speaking and drank a mouthful of hot tea. “In addition, I will be in closed-door cultivation for a while. If there’s anything, you can go and look for Brother Qu.”

Jiang Beiran, who had just picked up the teacup, immediately asked, “Brother Lu, are you going to break through?”

“Not really. I just have a new understanding of the moves and want to focus on practicing them for a while.”

“Then I wish you a successful comprehension.”

If it was a breakthrough in cultivation, Jiang Beiran could still think of ways to help, but there was nothing he could help with in terms of moves. This was basically something that could only be learned by Lu Bogui himself.

After the two of them chatted for a while more, Jiang Beiran stood up and took his leave.

“Brother Lu should not be far from breaking through after this closed-door training. It’s better to make preparations as soon as possible.”

Jiang Beiran remembered that he still needed the phoenix flower for the materials, Jiang Beiran decided not to return to the Order of Blue Heart that had changed greatly. He walked straight to the Order of Water Mirror.

“Order Master, someone is visiting.”

In the Tinglan Waterside Pavilion, Shi Fenglan, who was bored out of her mind, immediately pricked up her ears and asked, “Is Little Beiran here?”

“No… It’s the law protector of Sect of Chaos Star, Tan Yinghao.”

Shi Fenglan pouted and replied, “Just tell him that I’m not here.”

“But Law Protector Yu said that if the higher-ups of the Order of Blue Heart come to visit, even if it’s just a formality, it’s best to…”

“Alright, alright, I got it. Tell him to wait for me in the main hall.”

“Yes.” Xiao Duo replied happily and left.

When they arrived at the main door, Xiao Duo bowed to Tan Yinghao and said, “Law Protector Tan, please follow me into the main hall first. Order Master will come later.”

“Thank you.”

Tan Yinghao nodded and followed Xiao Duo into the main hall.

“Oh? Are these flowers much more beautiful than the last time I came?”

Tan Yinghao asked in surprise as soon as he stepped into the main hall.

“Well, I’ve read some books about flowers recently. I know how to take care of these flowers better than before.”

“Then you’re really talented. These are all strange flowers. They’re very difficult to take care of.”

“Well, I’ll try my best to take care of them.”

While Tan Yinghao was admiring the flowers and chatting with Xiao Duo, a voice suddenly sounded.

“Law Protector Tan, what business do you have with me today?”

Hearing Shi Fenglan’s voice, Tan Yinghao turned around and was about to bow, but he found that Shi Fenglan was a little different from before.

Shi Fenglan was still incredibly beautiful. She was walking on silk, her hair was shining like tortoiseshell, and her waist was smooth like silk. Her pair of peach blossom eyes were still as charming as usual, but…

“Why aren’t you wearing your loose-fitting, deep-cut clothes today?” “Order Master Tan?”

Hearing Xiao Duo’s reminder, Tan Yinghao knew that he had been rude. He quickly bowed and said, “Today, I’m here on my Order Master’s order to discuss some important matters with Order Master Shi.”

“Could it be… Order Master Li is looking for a cooperation with my Order of Water Mirror?”

“Uh…” Tan Yinghao was stuck for a moment, but he quickly nodded and said, “I am indeed here for this matter.”

“Then I’m afraid that Law Protector Tan has come all this way for nothing. For the time being, our Order of Water Mirror has no intention of cooperating with the other orders.”

“Please, Order Master Shi, you can consider our conditions first.”

“There’s no need to. I’ve already heard many of the conditions. I really have no intention of cooperating with other orders now, so please don’t waste your time, Law Protector Tan.”

Hearing Shi Fenglan’s refusal, Tan Yinghao had no choice but to give up. He chatted with her for a while more before leaving.

When Xiao Duo returned from sending off the guests, she saw that Shi Fenglan, who had been trying to persuade Tan Yinghao to leave, was now lying on the table in boredom. She could not help but chuckle, “If Law Protector Yu saw your imposing manner just now, she would definitely praise you.”

“Sigh… I’m too tired. Why isn’t Little Bei here today? I want to eat fish… Oh, no, I want to play games!”

“Didn’t Brother Beiran say yesterday that there was…”

Xiao Duo was halfway through her sentence when she heard a series of knocks on the door.

“I’ll go open the door.”

“Sigh… go… go…” Shi Fenglan replied weakly. She was fatigue of the higher-ups of the other orders that kept coming here to ask for a cooperation. However, just as she was about to stand up again to restore the imposing manner of an Order Master, she suddenly heard a voice that she had been looking forward to for a long time.

At the door, Jiang Beiran had just finished greeting Xiao Duo when he saw a fiery red figure rush out.

“Little Beiran ~”

Jiang Beiran hurriedly dodged to the side and then bowed to Shi Fenglan who had rushed over. “Greetings, Order Master.”

Shi Fenglan, who did not pounce on Jiang Beiran, pouted and said, “Why didn’t you come and play with me yesterday?”

“Order Master, I told Xiao Duo that I had something to do yesterday, so…”

“I don’t care! You told Xiao Duo, but you didn’t tell me! Today you have to play with me for half a day to make up for yesterday.”

“No problem, but I have to take care of the flowers first.”

“Play first! Let’s play first! Xiao Duo has already watered the flowers in the morning.”

“No, I have to finish my job first. This is what we agreed on.”

“Alright then, hurry up.”

Therefore, under Shi Fenglan’s expectant gaze, Jiang Beiran took care of the flowers in the courtyard, especially the bright red phoenix flower.

“Hmm… it looks like I can pollinate it soon. Sigh, these strange flowers are really precious, None of them can be cut and propagated. It’s really troublesome.”

Seeing Jiang Beiran stand up, Shi Fenglan, who had been following behind him for a long time, quickly asked, “Are you done? Are you done?” Jiang Beiran patted the mud on his hands and turned around. “Yes, I’m done. Also, I brought you a new way to play dice today.” “A new way to play dice!” Shi Fenglan’s eyes immediately lit up. “Teach me, teach me!”

Walking to the table, Jiang Beiran waved at Xiao Duo and said, “Come, Xiao Duo, it’s more fun with three people.”

“Me?” Xiao Duo pointed at herself and asked.

“Yes.”

As Jiang Beiran spoke, he took out a square cardboard from his storage ring. At the same time, he took out twelve figures of different shapes. Looking at the exquisite little figures, Shi Fenglan exclaimed, “Wow, did you carve these yourself, Beiran?”

“Yeah, I can give you a few if you like them.” “Really!? I want, I want!” Shi Fenglan grabbed a female warrior who was holding a chain. She looked at the colorful cardboard and asked Jiang Beiran, “What’s the name of this game?” “It’s called… Chivalrous Heroes.”
