“Whoa, good guy.”

It was just a short sentence, but Jiang Beiran felt that it contained a lot of information. Just based on Yan Guangqing’s words, Jiang Beiran felt that no matter what the outcome of this storm was, he would still benefit from it.

‘ An old fox is indeed an old fox.’

“Sect Master Yan is indeed powerful. Junior admires you. Then, junior will go and bring the princess over now?”

“Sure, but remember to be careful.” “Sect Leader Yan, please rest assured.”

” Then you go, I’m here waiting for you.”

“Alright, please wait a moment, Sect Master Yan. Junior will be back soon.”After saying that, Jiang Beiran left the main hall.

As he watched Jiang Beiran leave, Yan Guangqing adjusted his sitting position and stroked his long beard.

‘ Looks like I’ll have to find Granny Lin to read my fortune again.’

The reason Yan Guangqing had agreed to Jiang Beiran’s request was not because he wanted the treasure trove. Of course, it was not a bad idea to be an extra.

However, the main point was that Yan Guangqing felt that it was too much of a coincidence for such a big incident to happen to him, Jiang Beiran, in the vast sea of people. It was as if it was destined.

Since the first time he met Jiang Bei-Ran, Yan Guangqing had always felt that Jiang Bei-Ran was destined to be blessed by the gods. Otherwise, how could he be so successful with his cultivation and birth, and even become a guest elder in the Shi family?

All these appearances proved that he was destined to be extraordinary. Since this princess was a gift from the heavens.

Naturally, it was not bad.

At this point, he had already asked all the questions he needed to ask and tested her.

Since the system did not give him any options, it meant that handing Lu Ningxiang over to Yan Guangqing was not a problem.

Therefore, when Yan Guangqing issued a warning, Jiang Beiran smiled and cupped his hands.””Sect Master Yan, please rest assured. If it’s possible, I definitely don’t want any of this water to stick to me.”

Yan Guangqing retracted his gaze after hearing that.” That’s true. With your personality, why would you extend your hand so far? So, what’s your motive for inquiring about this matter?””

“Actually, it’s not a big deal. I just picked up a little girl on the road and asked around. She said that she was the sister of the current emperor of the country, so I…”

“Stop!” Yan Guangqing suddenly shouted and interrupted Jiang Beiran,” Where did you say you picked up something?” “It’s from the country. Princess.”

“Surname Lu?”

“Yes.”

“Lu Ningxiang?”

“Sect Leader Yan is indeed a god.” Jiang Beiran cupped his hands and said in a tone of admiration.

“Where did you pick it up?”

“I picked it up on the road.”

Yan Guangqing paced back and forth after hearing that. Finally, he asked,””Tell me the truth. What exactly happened?”

Jiang Beiran then told Yan Guangqing how he had met Lu Ningxiang at the inn.

“You don’t want to be such a busybody. “Yan Guangqing said.

“That’s because Sect Master Yan doesn’t understand this junior well enough. This junior has always been a chivalrous person, and has done many things to fight for justice.”

“Alright, since you put it this way, the old me will believe you. However, since you already know her identity, this matter…And you still want to continue managing it?”

“Sigh.” Jiang Beiran sighed.” There’s nothing I can do. I’m a soft-hearted person, and the princess is quite sensible. I really can’t bear to see her like this.”

“So you went in such a big circle just now to test if this old man would harm

“Junior doesn’t dare. The reason why junior wants to ask is because I’m worried that this princess will bring you trouble.”

“So you’re not worried now?”

“Naturally, I am still worried. However, this junior only knows you, a highly respected sect leader, in this country. Therefore…”

“You brought him?”

“No, I didn’t dare to bring the princess here without your permission.”

Yan Guangqing paced back and forth after listening to his words, then sat back down in his seat.

“Bei Ran, oh Bei Ran, I really can’t see through you.”

“Sect Master Yan, you don’t believe what Junior said just now?”

“Of course, I believe you. Otherwise, I wouldn’t be bothered to argue with you here. However, I don’t understand why this matter fell on your head.”

[I was going to ask!]

How was Jianz Beiran supposed to respond to this? A biz gift from the

Heavenly Axiom? The kind that he had no choice but to accept.

After complaining in his heart, Jiang Beiran cupped his hands again and replied, “”Actually, this junior is also thinking that this princess might be of some use to you. Therefore, I am bold.. ‘

“Wait!” Yan Guangqing waved his hand.” What do you mean? You came to ask this old man for help, so this old man owes you a favor?”

‘Hiss… This old fox was really unwilling to suffer a loss.’

However, if Jiang Beiran hadn’t been so familiar with Yan Guangqing, he wouldn’t have said that he was playing with this ” language art.”

Since he had been exposed, Jiang Beiran had no choice but to change his words.””Of course not. What I mean is that if she doesn’t affect you, I’ll send her here. If she does, you can pretend that I didn’t come today.”

“Compared to this, this old master would rather know what benefits the princess promised you.”

“To be honest, this junior is the kind of person who does good deeds without asking for anything in return.”

“Then you really are a man of high integrity. However, this old man is different from you. To be honest, this girl is indeed troublesome now. If it weren’t for you, this old man wouldn’t even want to talk.”

Jiang Beiran understood what she meant. She was asking for benefits.

However, Jiang Beiran was not the type to suffer losses. Not only did he not get any benefits from this matter, he had even gotten himself into trouble. Now, he was even asking him to give him benefits?

Wasn’t this bullying an honest person?

“Sect Master Yan, please rest assured on this point. That princess is not someone who will gain something for nothing. She also knows that she is a problem, so she has already estimated her own price.”

“What do you mean?”

“As long as you are willing to take her in and ensure the safety of her family, she is willing to tell you the location of her father’s treasury.” “Why is there another condition?”

“This condition wasn’t set by this junior, but by the princess.”

“Do I look like someone who lacks her father’s treasures?

“Doesn’t seem like it.” Jiang Beiran shook his head.” Then I’ll think of another way.””

“Hey!” Yan Guangqing suddenly called out,” Although I’m not interested in this treasure vault, when you mention her father, I can’t help but feel a little emotional. Speaking of which, we’re old friends. Seeing his daughter in such a state, I can’t help but feel sorry for her.”

Although he couldn’t help but complain in his heart,” I don’t believe you. You’re a bad old man.”

But on the surface, Jiang Beiran still had to say with utmost respect,””Sect Leader Yan is truly a person who values relationships and loyalty! Junior admires.”

“Forget it, forget it. Bring her to this old man.”

“Can Sect Leader Yan save her family?”

“If this old master didn’t even have this bit of face, how could he still have the face to say that he would protect your Sheng Country?”

“Whoa, good guy.”

It was just a short sentence, but Jiang Beiran felt that it contained a lot of information. Just based on Yan Guangqing’s words, Jiang Beiran felt that no matter what the outcome of this storm was, he would still benefit from it.

‘ An old fox is indeed an old fox.’

“Sect Master Yan is indeed powerful. Junior admires you. Then, junior will go and bring the princess over now?”

All these appearances proved that he was destined to be extraordinary. Since this princess was a chance given to him by the heavens.

Naturally, it was not bad..
