Chapter 221: The Heavens Bestow Great Responsibility on a Great Man 1

Just as Jiang Beiran had expected, the purging of the “traitors” was only the beginning of the chaos in Fengzhou. This was because when these traitors were all eliminated, their territory would naturally be empty, and this would be the true beginning of the chaos.

However, this kind of chaos could still be controlled because there are Guan Shi’an and Yin Jianghong, the two mystic master level powerhouses. Once they stepped out to take charge of the overall situation, the other sects and the demonic cults wouldn’t be able to cause too much trouble under the suppression of their strength.

After reading the report that Gu Qinghuan sent over, Jiang Beiran could almost imagine how troubled the two mystic master-level experts were now.

After all, if the distribution of the cake was not done well, the subordinates would inevitably feel resentful.

Just like how Xiang Yu divided the territory in the past. In the end, everyone felt that they had lost out, and then they joined forces to kill Xiang Yu.

Now, Guan Shi’an and the others were one level higher. It was inevitable that these people who felt that they had lost out would become the next bunch of traitors and once again plotting to bring these two old geezers down.

Therefore, being the boss was not easy. It required a lot of skill and intelligence

After putting away the report, Jiang Beiran took out a storage ring and handed it to Gu Qinghuan, “Excuse me, go to Lingtai County and have a look. If there are any good spiritual fragrances, buy some.”

“Yes.” Gu Qinghuan took the storage ring and cupped his hands.

“Okay, go ahead.”

After Gu Qinghuan left, Jiang Beiran also returned to the Order of Blue Heart and came to his small house. Jiang Beiran first opened the water tank beside him and took out the calligraphy piece that Lin Yuyan had put in.

Jiang Beiran opened it and looked at it. He nodded with satisfaction.

After a long period of practice, Lin Yuyan’s wild cursive became much better. She was only one step away from becoming a master.

After closing the letter and making sure that no one else had left him a note, Jiang Beiran cleaned the house a little and was about to leave. Then, he saw his junior brother, Ying Yuan rushing towards him and shouting, “Brother Jiang!”

Jiang Beiran knew that it was impossible for Ying Yuan to come looking for him himself, so he asked, “Order Master asked you to look for me?”

“Yes, Order Master asked you to immediately go to the study room to look for him.” Ying Yuan nodded.

Looking at Ying Yuan’s anxious look, Jiang Beiran felt that Order Master must have something important to look for him this time, and it was probably not about Law Protector Yu.

“Okay, thank you. I will go there myself.”

“Okay.” Ying Yuan cupped his hands towards Jiang Beiran and left.

After closing the door, Jiang Beiran quickly arrived at the door of Zhang Heqing’s study room.

He knocked on the door lightly three times, and when he heard “Come in,” Jiang Beiran pushed the door open and walked in.

“Greetings, Order Master.” Jiang Beiran cupped his hands toward Zhang Heqing, and then asked, “May I know why you are looking for me?”

Zhang Heqing, who was drinking tea, shook his head after hearing this. “This time, it’s not me who is looking for you, but Sect Master Lu.”

“Sect Master?” Jiang Beiran’s heart couldn’t help but thump faster. He had a premonition that Sect Master wanted to see him for a troublesome matter.

“That’s right. Sect Master wants to see you. Go quickly before it’s time for lunch break. Don’t delay.”

“Yes.”

Jiang Beiran cupped his hands toward Zhang Heqing and left Zhang Heqing’s study.

Although Sect Master always asked the order masters to pass the message to their disciples, Zhang Heqing seemed to be in a hurry this time. He didn’t even exchange a few words with Jiang Beiran before he chased Jiang Beiran out. It seemed that Sect Master was also in a hurry to look for him.

This made Jiang Beiran’s heart skip a beat.

However, when he thought that the system didn’t give him any option, Jiang Beiran felt much more at ease.

Without stopping, Jiang Beiran went straight to Tianyun Peak. After waiting for Moman to report at the entrance of Sect Master’s residence, Jiang Beiran was brought to the front of the main hall.

After taking a look inside, Jiang Beiran was just about to greet Sect Master Lu, but he was suddenly stunned. This was because he caught a glimpse of a big shot that he didn’t want to see, or at least he didn’t want to see right now.

“Guan Shi’an!?”

However, he was only stunned for a moment. Jiang Beiran quickly cupped his hands at the two of them and said, “I, Jiang Beiran, greet Sect Master Lu, Sect Master Guan.”

Lu Yinlong nodded and smiled at Jiang Beiran. “Come in.”

Jiang Beiran sighed in his heart and walked into the hall.

“Little friend Beiran, I haven’t seen you for a long time. You haven’t changed at all.”

Hearing Guan Shi’an call him little friend in front of Lu Yinlong, Jiang Beiran felt a lot of pressure.

However, Lu Yinlong’s reaction was quite normal. He already knew that Jiang Beiran was no ordinary person since the last time these two mystic masters came to ask for Jiang Beiran.

Jiang Beiran cupped his hands toward Guan Shi’an and replied, “I’m stupid. After so many days, my cultivation still hasn’t improved at all. Sect Master Guan, I disappointed you.”

Guan Shi’an laughed after hearing that, “Hahaha, that’s not what I’m talking about. It’s your first reaction when you saw me just now. It made me feel that you haven’t changed at all.”

Guan Shi’an could say these words in serious manner or light-hearted. If he said it in a serious manner, his meaning was clearly that Jiang Beiran did not like him at the first moment. This was enough to make a mystic master raise his hand to kill him.

If he was light-hearted, it was just to tease his little friend. He didn’t mean any harm.

But no matter whatever Guan Shi’an meant, Jiang Beiran naturally still had to deal with it as the big one.

Thus, he cupped his hands and said, “I still remember Sect Master Guan’s earnest teachings when we were at Sect of Masked Moon. Now that we’ve met again, I can’t help but lose my composure. Sect Master Guan, please forgive me.”

Jiang Beiran’s flattery was just right because his sect master was still here.

“Hahaha, you really know how to talk.” Guan Shi’an laughed again, then looked at Lu Yinlong and said, “Sect Master Lu is indeed worthy for our Sect of Masked Moon to learn from when it comes to training disciples.”
