I Just Won't Play By The Book

305 A Great Malevolence (1)

“Yan ‘er, have you come into contact with any ominous things or entered a forbidden area recently?”

“Disciple has never come into contact with any ominous things, nor have I entered any forbidden area.”

“Then have you cultivated any cultivation techniques other than those given to you by the sect?”

“I didn’t.”

“That’s strange. Can the elders in your family…”

..

As she listened to Hall Master Ran’s questions, Lin Yuyan, who was under the watchful eyes of several stewards in the Hall of Numbers, became increasingly frustrated.

She had already been brought to the hall master’s manor for fifteen minutes.

‘What if Senior Brother comes looking for me during this period of time?’

‘What if Senior Brother can’t find me and thinks that I’m not waiting for him?’

‘What if Senior Brother thinks that I went out with the other male disciples of the sect?’

“How can that be? Senior Brother, I will only love you forever. I also know that you only love me, Senior Brother. Every time I think of those explicit words in the letter, I can’t sleep well at night.”

Thinking of how her senior brother would always remind her to cultivate well at the end of his letters, Lin Yuyan knew very well that his senior brother was telling her that as long as her cultivation caught up to him, they would get married immediately.

Otherwise, why would he remind her in every letter?

” Senior Brother, Yan ‘er understands your intentions. Just you wait, Yan’ er will be back soon.’

As the longing in her heart grew stronger, Lin Yuyan gradually began to ignore the Hall Master’s question. There was only one mental cultivation method in her heart, and that was to return as soon as possible.

“Yan ‘er, Yan’ er?”

Hall Master Ran asked curiously when he saw Lin Yuyan suddenly fall silent.

However, Lin Yuyan did not answer her. Instead, she turned around and walked towards the door.

“Lin Yuyan, the hall master is talking to you. How can you leave without permission??”

At this moment, Guardian Qin of Mo Yu Hall stepped forward and shouted at Lin Yuyan.

Seeing that Lin Yuyan didn’t respond, Protector Qin was about to reprimand her again when she turned her neck stiffly like an undead. Before Protector Qin could say anything, Lin Yuyan suddenly opened her eyes, which were emitting a faint purple light, and spat out a voice that sounded like hell.

Following Lin Yuyan’s hair-raising laughter, an ominous aura suddenly attacked Protector Qin. Protector Qin instinctively wanted to use his martial arts to resist, but he found that the surrounding spiritual energy had become extremely violent and could not be absorbed into his body at all.

Seeing that Lin Yuyan was slowly reaching for him, Protector Qin, whose cultivation base was far higher than Lin Yuyan’s, retreated frantically in fear.

Hall Master Ran was also completely stunned. Lin Yuyan could be said to be her favorite disciple in the past two years. She was beautiful, gentle, graceful, and extremely talented in cultivation. She also loved calligraphy as much as she did, and recently, she had even written a calligraphy style that amazed even Hall Master Ran.

However, this Lin Yu ‘an had nothing to do with Wenjing or Wanshun. She was like a messenger from hell, emitting a terrifying aura.

Even she instinctively had the urge to stay away from her.

“Stop her!”

Although she was extremely fearful of the ominous aura that Lin Yuyan was constantly emitting, as the Hall Master of the Returning Heart Sect, she could not allow such a dangerous person to leave just like that.

Protector Qin, who had been scared off earlier, gritted his teeth and drew the Heavenly Rainbow Treasure Sword from his waist.

“No, I can’t! Don’t hurt her!” “I’m afraid Yan ‘er has come into contact with something extremely dangerous,” Hall Master Ran hurriedly shouted.”All we need to do is remove the curse on her.”

After saying that, Hall Master Ran leaped in front of Lin Yuyan and said gently,””Yan ‘er, calm down. No one here will hurt you.”

Lin Yuyan ignored her and continued walking towards the door.

Sensing the ominous aura slowly calming down on Lin Yuyan’s body, Hall Master Ran decided not to provoke her anymore. He turned to the others and said,””Qionglan, report this matter to the sect master. Ningxuan, go find Hall Master Wan and tell him that a very ominous thing has been discovered in the sect.”

“Yes.” After receiving the order, the two of them immediately flew out of the window and ran in two directions.

Again, he waved his hand at the remaining people. Ran Clan Master carefully followed Lin Yuyan out of the door. She decided to stabilize the situation without stimulating her, and strive for the situation to develop in the worst direction.

On the other side, on Heavenly Cloud Peak, Jiang Beiran was still discussing the prefecture reform with a few of the sect’s higher-ups. As he listened to the opinions of the three, Jiang Beiran couldn’t help but sigh at the fact that his sect leader really knew how to choose people. The three higher-ups were not just for show, and their suggestions were all very useful.

Jiang Beiran could be said to have accepted the opinions of the sect’s higher-ups humbly. After all, his reform plan had completely copied the era he had lived in, and some details would definitely clash with the thoughts of the natives of this world.

Jiang Beiran had never intended to make drastic changes in the first place. He had only brought out these plans to make his ” pie ” more delicious. Otherwise, how could he have garnered the Sect Master’s support?

“Beiran, you seem to be very interested in the paper making and printing techniques. Will you be using them in large quantities in your future plans?”

There was paper in this world, but the technology was not very mature. The paper and books produced were very limited, and it was only enough for the upper class. It was basically impossible for the lower class to enjoy the convenience of paper.

As a person of the 21st century, Jiang Beiran was all too familiar with the importance of sending messages quickly.
