"Huh..." Standing in front of a pear wood door, Jiang Beiran took a deep breath.
The appointment with Shi Fenglan's father went surprisingly smoothly, and Shi Hongfang's visit lasted less than a cup of tea.
"Don't look at me. I'm surprised that he agreed so readily." Shi Hongfang said with a surprised look on his face.
Since Shi Hongfang could not give an answer, Jiang Beiran did not continue to ask further questions and silently followed Shi Hongfang to Shi Yan's residence.
After arriving at the place, Shi Hongfang patted Jiang Beiran on the shoulder and left directly, leaving Jiang Beiran alone to face the father who was obviously very daughter-in-law.
‘Since the system doesn’t skip options, it’s not a big problem.’
After saying this in his mind, Jiang Beiran raised his hand and knocked on the door.
"Enter."
A very vicissitudes of voice came from behind the door.
When Jiang Beiran heard this, he reached out and pushed hard, and the door opened with a "squeak".
The moment he entered the room, Jiang Beiran felt a compelling sight. However, he had felt this kind of sight many times since he came to the Shi family, so he was more or less used to it.
He raised his eyes and looked at the owner of his gaze. The middle-aged man in front of him had a domineering sword-shaped eyebrow and a pair of slender, sharp black eyes full of murderous intent.
'Hmm... it's a face that has eaten a child.'
This was not the first time Jiang Beiran had seen this face. The last time he went to Jinding Island, he had actually caught a glimpse of this middle-aged man who always had his eyes locked on him.
After complaining in his heart, Jiang Beiran cupped his hands towards Shi Yan and said, "Junior Jiang Beiran, pay your respects to Lord Shi Fang."
"Why do you want to see me?"
Shi Yan's voice is very unique. Just listening to one sentence will make you feel that he is a person with a lot of stories.
'If this person becomes an anchor or a voice actor, he will definitely gain a group of loyal fans.'
Seeing that Shi Yan was straightforward and straight to the point, Jiang Beiran didn't beat around the bush and answered directly: "Master Shi Fang, does he know that your daughter has the Secret Mind Dhara Body?"
After hearing this, Shi Yan frowned and said in a deep voice: "A secret mind-body that is born to be compatible with strange beasts?"
"Exactly." Jiang Beiran nodded,
"are you sure."
"It's basically certain. It's just because I was worried that this physique would have a bad impact on her, so I didn't go to the Beast Masters Guild for confirmation."
Hearing this, Shi Yan's expression was a little disappointed at first, and then he said melancholy: "Tell me why you came to me."
"I believe Master Shi Fang should know that if too many people know about this constitution, it will definitely arouse a lot of jealousy. It can be said that many existing problems can be solved with this constitution."
"You are right." Shi Yan nodded.
"So this junior feels that it is up to you to decide whether Hall Master Shi's talent should be utilized, or whether she should keep a low profile and not draw attention to herself."
Shi Yan thought that it would be a big problem for Jiang Beiran to take the initiative to come to him, but he didn't expect it to be so big.
Shi Fenglan was locked in her own room since she was a child, and she has been in the Guixin Sect since she left.
Because of the reasons explained by Gu Liangren, Shi Yan could not personally protect his daughter, so he knew very little about her daughter's development. Now, even the news that his daughter had such an amazing talent had to be told to him by an outsider.
This was the reason why he was extremely melancholy.
However, this melancholy only lasted for a moment, and Shi Yan asked: "Have you ever asked her about her wishes?"
"Hall Master Shi's mind is still young, and I think she is not suitable to make this decision, so she came to you to make this decision."
Although spreading the news that Shi Fenglan possesses the Secret Mind Dhara Body may bring trouble to Shi Fenglan, it may also bring opportunities.
This is a very powerful talent. If used properly, Shi Fenglan will definitely be regarded as a person with a bright future.
And how many people try to trick her into thinking wrongly, how many people want to win her over with various benefits.
In short, there are advantages and disadvantages. Otherwise, if it were all disadvantages, Jiang Beiran wouldn't have to go all the way to find her father.
After hearing this, Shi Yan stared at Jiang Beiran with his murderous eyes, but this time Jiang Beiran didn't feel that light on his back.
Suddenly, Shi Yan turned his back and said as if he had made some important decision: "Maybe it would be better for you to make this decision."
Jiang Beiran was a little confused after hearing this. He had thought about various answers Shi Yan would give him, and also thought about how he should give him advice, but now...
After a moment of silence, Jiang Beiran found that the system did not pop up any options, which meant that there was no temptation in Shi Yan's words and he was sincere.
'He really thinks it would be better for me to make this decision for Hall Master Shi.'
Jiang Beiran didn't ask why, because when a father makes the choice to let others decide the fate of his daughter, no matter what the reason is, it is painful.
"Okay, then I will be bold enough to make this decision for Master Shi Fang."
"Yeah." Shi Yan, who was carrying his back, nodded, "Is there anything else?"
"there is none left."
"Then go ahead."
After thinking for a moment, Jiang Beiran still cupped his hands and said, "Junior, take your leave."
But just when Jiang Beiran walked to the door and was about to push it open, Shi Yan's voice suddenly sounded behind him again.
"Jiang Beiran."
Jiang Beiran, who was a little surprised, turned around and saluted: "I wonder if there is anything else I need to tell you, senior?"
"Lan'er is very happy when she is with you, happier than I have ever seen her. Thank you."
It has to be said that the tenderness of a tough man is really easy to move. Looking at this "child-eating" face saying such tender words, Jiang Beiran's nose felt sour for a moment.
Before Jiang Beiran could say anything, Shi Yan, who had turned his back again, waved his hand and said, "Don't say anything, just go."
"yes."
Jiang Beiran nodded, opened the door and left.
"boom!"
The moment Jiang Beiran left, Shi Yan shattered the wall in front of him with one punch.
"Why...why do so many things have to happen to my daughter!" After saying this in a low voice, Shi Yan turned to look out the window and shouted: "God damn it! If you do anything evil, come at me! Why?"
Keep an eye on my daughter!"
Shi Yan was extremely upset at this moment. He didn't want to protect his daughter from wind and rain like other fathers, but he couldn't get close to his daughter at all. This had been the case since he was a child.
Although he was very pleased that his daughter was happy when she was with Na Jiang Beiran, but what he wanted more to see was his daughter smiling like that when she was with him.
Even with this mentality, Shi Yan still made the plan to let Jiang Beiran make the decision for his daughter's future.
Because he had been observing Jiang Beiran for a long time, judging from his various performances in the Shi family, although he had shown various abilities that went against common sense, Shi Yan still felt that this was not his full strength.
And it’s much more than that!
It was rare that Shi Yan couldn't see through a person at all, but this Jiang Beiran was too mysterious.
No wonder Gu Liangren calculated that letting his daughter go to Sheng Kingdom would help her get rid of the evil fate. The purpose was actually to find Jiang Beiran.
So on the premise of trusting Jiang Beiran's ability, Shi Yan made this decision.
Because at this stage, this young man knows better than himself what kind of life his daughter wants.
At the same time, I also believe that this young man can protect his daughter.
But when Shi Yan saw Jiang Beiran walking out from the window, another unknown fire surged in his heart!
'Damn brat!'
On the street, Jiang Beiran, who had just walked out of Shi Yan's mansion, suddenly felt a thump in his heart, and that familiar feeling of light on his back came again.
'This old man... he obviously made his own decision, why are you still glaring at me? Do you think I am willing to take the blame for you?'
Thinking of this, Jiang Beiran raised his head and gave Shi Yan a middle finger, then slowly left.
Seeing Jiang Beiran's gesture towards him, Shi Yan, who was standing in front of the window, was stunned for a moment.
‘‘Middle finger? What does it mean?’
After thinking about it, Shi Yan thought of something.
Among the five fingers, the middle finger is the longest.
'This kid gave me the middle finger...is he expressing that he is very strong, don't worry? Or is it something else...?'
After just thinking for a moment, Shi Yan shook the question out of his head, adjusted his mood, and regained the expression that could scare a child into tears.
After soliciting Shi Yan's advice, Jiang Beiran returned to Fei Mansion.
Looking at Shi Fenglan who was running over to greet him holding a painting, Jiang Beiran had made up his mind.
In other words, when Shi Yan said that he would leave the decision to himself, Jiang Beiran had already made his decision.
Be low-key, you must be low-key.
This is what Jiang Beiran has always adhered to. If he can keep a low profile, he will never be high-profile. Even if Shi Fenglan wants to be high-profile one day, it must be when her cultivation level has greatly increased. Otherwise, based on her current cultivation level of the Xuan King Realm, it is very likely that she will
Eaten alive by a group of big shots.
After commenting on Shi Fenglan's latest masterpiece, Jiang Beiran said, "Would you like to go to a very dangerous place with me?"
After hearing this, Shi Fenglan was a little in disbelief at first, but soon cheered and shouted: "Yes! Of course I want it!"
"It's very dangerous out there, far more dangerous than you realize."
"It doesn't matter! As long as you are here, Xiao Beiran, no danger will harm me, right?"
Speaking of this, what else could Jiang Beiran say? He nodded and said, "Have a night's rest and we'll set off tomorrow."
The next day, Jiang Beiran took Feifu to Zeng State, and once again entered the barrier where An Ming Qiongqi was.
Feeling the fluctuations in the barrier, An Mingqiongqi rushed over immediately.
"Qiqi!" Shi Fenglan shouted happily, rushed forward and turned over Qiqi skillfully.
An Mingqiongqi, who was being mounted, shook his head and looked very happy.
'A special physique is still awesome...'
With a sigh in his heart, Jiang Beiran stepped forward and said to An Mingqiongqi: "I helped you find a place where you can live in peace of mind."
An Mingqiongqi's eyes widened after hearing this, and he shook his tail and asked: "You are indeed a very powerful human being! Where is that place!?"
Although he thought it was unlikely, Jiang Beiran took out a map, spread it out and asked, "Can you understand the map?"
An Mingqiongqi's reaction did not surprise Jiang Beiran too much.
It stared at the map for a long time, as if it was really trying hard to understand what was on the paper.
However, Jiang Beiran didn't expect An Mingqiongqi to understand, so he changed his approach and said: "You should know that there is a place where alien beasts are entrenched that humans cannot set foot on. The alien beasts there have been defeated several times.
Encirclement and suppression by the human army."
"Are you talking about... the Four Holy Lands?" An Mingqiongqi thought for a moment and asked.
"Four Holy Lands?" Jiang Beiran thought for a moment, "Although I don't know if you are talking about the same place, but this is the only place where alien beasts can resist the encirclement and suppression of human armies in the entire Xuanlong Continent.
Already."
After hearing this, An Mingqiongqi's eyes dimmed and he replied: "Then I won't go."
"Why?"
"That's where my eldest brother was kicked out. If it hadn't been for them! My eldest brother wouldn't have..."
"Kick him out?" Jiang Beiran looked a little surprised. He really never thought that there would be such a story.
"Did your elder brother tell you what happened?"
"I said it." After An Mingqiongqi finished speaking, he drooped his big head and let out a low growl.
Feeling that An Ming Qiongqi was in a very low mood, Shi Fenglan reached out and touched its mane, comforting her: "Don't worry, Qiqi, Xiao Beiran is here and can help you solve any problem."
Although An Mingqiongqi couldn't understand what Shi Fenglan was talking about, he felt inexplicably at ease.
Shaking his neck, Anming Qiongqi looked at Jiang Beiran again and said: "Brother told me that there are many tribes living in the Four Holy Lands, and..."
"How much is a lot?" Jiang Beiran asked.
"A lot...just a lot." An Mingqiongqi tilted his head and replied.
'Tsk, you don't look very smart.'
Jiang Beiran originally thought that he could get more information about the ancient ruins from An Mingqiongqi, but now it seems that he was still too naive.
"Okay, then tell me first why that place is called the Four Holy Lands by you."
"Because the essences of the four ancient saints are sealed there, that's why it's called the Land of the Four Holy Saints."
"Four Saints? What kind of existence are they?"
An Mingqiongqi became excited when he heard this, "Each of the four great saints has great power. Any one of them can easily tear apart the strongest among you humans. They..."
"They also have sharp teeth that can crush anything and scales that can withstand all attacks?"
An Ming Qiongqi was stunned when he was interrupted, "No, this is only for our king. The four great saints are the king's strongest subordinates."
'Yeah... the legend system is quite complete.'
But there must be something special about that place being able to withstand human encirclement and suppression.
'Maybe...it's not all about coaxing the little beast?'
"Go on and tell us why your eldest brother was kicked out."
"Because every tribe in the Four Holy Lands wants to compete for the spiritual inheritance of the Four Holy Lands, they often compete for territory with each other. The losing party has two choices when fighting for territory. One is to become the winner's subordinate, and the other is to become the victor's subordinate.
It is to leave the Four Holy Lands."
'It turns out that the battle was defeated...'
Although he understood what was going on, Jiang Beiran couldn't figure out why there was such a rule.
The alien beasts are already on the weaker side in the fight with humans, and yet they kick out the stronger ones. Is this not cutting off an arm?
‘I don’t know whether I should say they are wild and wild...or that they are just dumb.’
