Chapter 160 The Chosen One 3
Just as Jiang Beiran was thinking about how to answer, three options popped up.
( Option 1: “Great Cooperation”. Reward: Xun Feng True Scripture (mid-tier black rank)]
[ Option 2: “Pretty Good.” Reward: Green Cloud Scripture (high tier yellow rank)]
[ Option 3: “I still prefer to travel alone.” Reward: Random basic skill points + 1]
Without hesitation, Jiang Beiran chose option 3. He cupped his hands and said, “I still prefer to travel alone.” [ Option mission completed. Reward: Flower planting + 1]
Qu Zhiwen and Tai Yingzong were a little surprised after hearing this answer. Qu Zhiwen didn’t expect this little disciple to be so disrespectful to his cult master. After all, with the difference in status between the two of them, Jiang Beiran should flatter Yin Jianghong
After hearing this, Mu Yao became even more angry. If she wasn’t afraid that her big father would scold her again, she would have already pulled out her sword and argued with Jiang Beiran.
Only Guan Shi’an wasn’t too surprised. After all, he had already experienced how this little disciple spoke whatever he wanted to. “Hahaha, looks like you can’t control my Yaoyao either. I originally thought that you would be different from the other kids.”
“Big father!” Mu Yao finally couldn’t help but shout coquettishly.
“Okay, okay, okay. Let’s not talk about this.” Yin Jianghong waved his hand, he looked at Jiang Beiran again and said, “I promised that if you could find more leads more about the spy, I would give you a yellow-grade magical item. Not only you did it, but you have also helped us solve a big problem. I naturally can’t go back on my word.”
After saying that, Yin Jianghong took out something that looked like a bamboo tube from her storage ring. Qu Zhiwen, who was standing behind Yin Jianghong, was shocked.
“Big brother specially asked me to bring the Cloud-curling Tube here to give to this little disciple. he also let Yaoyao… it seems that he really thinks highly of this kid.” Qu Zhiwen thought.
“This magical item is called the Cloud-curling Tube. Its function is very simple. Watch.”
As Yin Jianghong spoke, he put the cloud-curling barrel to his mouth and blew hard. In an instant, a huge cloud was blown out like a bubble.
Yin Jianghong patted the cloud twice. He then looked at Jiang Beiran and said, “Your cultivation is not enough. It’s too troublesome for you to run around. The Cloud-curling Tube only has two functions. One is to help you fly into the sky, and the other is to hide your aura. As long as you hide in this cloud, even I won’t be able to find you so easily.”
“Even the mystic master can’t find me if I use it!?”
Upon hearing this, Jiang Beiran could only use five words to describe this Cloud-curling Tube.
There were specializations in the arts.
Compared to t the Ruyi Fortune Bucket, which was extremely useful but with a lower upper limit, this Cloud-curling Tube with concealing ability should already be the best among yellow grade magical items.
“Take it.”
“This is really…”
“Alright, enough with the pleasantries. If you can accept the things that Old Man Guan gave you, you should accept the things from me as well.”
“In that case, I appreciate Cult Master Yin’s kindness.”
After receiving the Cloud-curling Tube, Jiang Beiran thought that although he had caused a lot of trouble during this trip to the Sect of Masked Moon, he had also obtained many benefits. After all, he had relied on choosing the safest options all this time to obtain two yellow grade magical items. It could be said that he obtained those useful items without paying anything. However, now that there were so many new interpersonal relationships, he had to handle them carefully in the future. Otherwise, he might trap himself into trouble again.
As Guan Shi’an watched Jiang Beiran put away the Cloud-curling Tube, Guan Shilan came up and said, “You have done well this time. What’s going to happen next will be even more troublesome. With your current cultivation level, it’s too dangerous for you to get involved. So, you should cultivate properly in the Sect of Returning Hearts. Sigh, anyway, don’t give up. If you practice two more martial arts, perhaps one of them will be suitable for
you.”
However, Jiang Beiran did not listen to the second half of the sentence at all. When he heard that Guan Shi’an did not continue to give him tasks because he was “useful”, Jiang Beiran was extremely touched.
“Yes, I will remember your teachings.”
Yin Jianghong sighed and said, “What a pity. Such a good piece of jade, but it lost a corner. Why don’t you come back to the Spirit Dragon Cult with me now? There must be a lot of cultivation techniques in our cult that you haven’t seen before. Have you heard of the Flower Burial Scripture? Let me tell you, this…”
“Cough!”

Hearing Guan Shi’an’s coughing, Yin Jianghong rolled his eyes and said, “I was just joking. If I want to persuade him to go to Spirit Dragon Cult, would I say it in front of you?” “It’s better to say less of such jokes.”
“Old-fashioned.” After saying that, Yin Jianghong looked at the nearby Luoxia Town and said, “Alright, let’s stop chatting. It’s time to make it official. Yaoyao, you go back to the cult with your third father first.” “Big father, aren’t you going back together?” Mu Yao asked.
“I still have some things to do here. I’ll be back later.”
After listening to Yin Jianghong’s words, Qu Zhiwen looked at Mu Yao and said, “Then let’s go, Yaoyao.”
“Okay.” After agreeing, Mu Yao first glared at Jiang Beiran before leaving with Qu Zhiwen.
Seeing Mu Yao leave, Jiang Beiran felt a weight lifted off his heart. He finally had no one to hold him back.
“Perhaps if I hadn’t answered so directly just now, Yin Jianghong would have let this baggage follow me. It’s alright, it’s alright…” After thanking the system options in his heart, Jiang Beiran cupped his hands towards Guan Shi’an and the others. “Sect Master Guan, Chancellor Tai, Sect Cult Yin, then I will return to my sect.”
Guan Shilan nodded and said, “Send my regards to Brother Lu.”
“Yes.”
After saying that, Jiang Beiran cupped his hands to the three magnates and then left.
When Jiang Beiran disappeared from sight, Yin Jiang Hong said, “Sect Master Guan, it seems that we will have to be busy for a while.”
“Yes, but before that, you should first get rid of those who are against you.” “Likewise. Sect Master Huang hopes that you can investigate the matter as soon as possible.”
“You don’t have to worry about that.”
After saying that, the two of them looked at each other and smiled. They understood that each other had quite a bit of trouble to deal with.
After laughing, Yin Jianghong sighed. “How do you think we should solve the problem of the Imperial Court? I originally thought that the little emperor was just a little clever. I didn’t expect that his ambition and ability were not small either.”
Guan Shi’an nodded. “Indeed. It seems that we have to intimidate him again.”
“Intimidate? What’s the use of deterrence? He either doesn’t resist us, or he will keep resisting us for countless time. Since he already has this intention to resist us, no matter how you intimidate him, it will only inflate his rebellious heart even more.”
“So, you mean to replace him?”
“Of course, we have to replace him, but we can’t rush it. Sheng Kingdom is not something that the two of us can manage. We still have to shut the mouths of those people in Lanzhou first.”
“Sigh…” upon hearing this, Guan Shilan sighed, “A person’s unsatisfied heart is like a snake trying to swallow an elephant. These emperors are sitting on the glorious throne by doing nothing, yet they are still not satisfied. It’s really a headache. It’s not a good thing to keep replacing them. It’s too troublesome.”
Yin Jianghong smiled slightly after listening and said, “I have a candidate who doesn’t give people a headache.”
“Oh? Who is it?” Guan Shi’an asked curiously.
“It’s that kid who just left.”
“Jiang Beiran?” Guan Shi’an sounded very surprised. He didn’t expect Yin Jianghong to have his eyes on Jiang Beiran.
“He knows when to advance and when to retreat. He knows what to say and what not to say when facing me. He knows which words are suitable for him to say now and which words are not. With the strength of a mere qi refining realm, he can make us look at him in a new light.”
“Indeed. This Jiang Beiran really knows how to behave himself. In other words, he knows how to control the hearts of others.”

“Hahaha, that’s exactly what happened. Moreover, don’t you think that the position of emperor is the most suitable for this kid to perform? He doesn’t need cultivation, and no one dares to touch him easily. He can even do many things for us while being an emperor.”
“I agree. He is indeed a perfect candidate.” After saying that, Guan Shi’an suddenly paused and asked, “Don’t tell me you already have this idea? That’s why you let your daughter…”
“No, I don’t have such intention.” Yin Jiang Hong shook her head, “Before this kid sent the news to me, I didn’t think that the little emperor would be so bold. But now… The emperor has already let you righteous disciples sit in the Imperial Court, so us demonic cult also has the right to voice our opinion in the Imperial Court, right?” “Don’t tell me you still plan to match your daughter to him?”
“Hahaha, it’s still too early to discuss it. Don’t forget that the Imperial Court is not something we can handle easily. Let’s go, it’s time to get busy.” After saying that, he turned around and left.
Guan Shi’an looked in the direction of Jiang Beiran’s departure and pondered for a moment. In the end, he smiled and also turned around to leave.
