Chapter 42: There’s No Way That I’ll Believe In You!

In fact, when Jiang Beiran came back, he had already thought that Yu Manwen would definitely come to find him again. To prevent more troubles, Jiang Beiran decided to “retreat” directly, and let her wait for a month to exhaust her curiosity towards himself. Eventually, the incident would naturally subside.

But what Jiang Beiran never expected was that the wise Order Master, who used to be heroic and always covered for him, had actually become…

Seeing Zhang Heqing peeking at Yu Manwen’s “shy” expression from time to time, Jiang Beiran was desperate.

“The pretty flower of the Sect of Returning Hearts…how terrifying!” After putting away his thoughts, Jiang Beiran stepped forward and said, “I, Disciple Jiang Beiran pays my respects to Law Protector Yu.”

Yu Manwen nodded slightly and said, “Beiran, you hid in the Pavilion of Blue Heart when you came back. Were you hiding from me?”

Jiang Beiran was about to answer when he saw three options appear in front of him.

[Option 1: “No, I wouldn’t dare.” Completion reward: Blood Refining Slash (Black Grade Low Tier)]

[Option 2: “Law Protector Yu, you have been thinking too much. I just suddenly got inspiration and wanted to further improve my go skills, that’s why I went there.” Completion reward: Three-pointed and four-edged Blade (Yellow Grade Mid Tier)]

[Option 3: “Yes.” Completion reward: random basic skill points +1]

Jiang Beiran was taken aback when he saw these three options, but he chose the third option and replied, “Yes.”

[Optional task completed, reward: Drawing +1]

After hearing this, Zhang Heqing was stunned, and he hurriedly shouted, “Jiang Beiran! What nonsense! Are you asking for a beating?” After speaking, he turned his head and smiled at Manwen, “Law Protector Yu, I apologize for my inability to teach my disciple properly. That’s why he has no respect, and I will punish him well afterwards.”

“No need.” Yu Manwen raised her left hand and waved towards Zhang Heqing, then said, “Can Master Zhang let me chat with him alone?”

“This…of course.” After Zhang Heqing finished speaking, he stood up and walked towards the door, but when passing by Jiang Beiran, he used a voice transmission and said, “Don’t be angry with Law Protector Yu anymore, otherwise I will punish you.”

Jiang Beiran nodded immediately to show his understanding.

With the “squeak” sound of wooden doors, Zhang Heqing closed the door and left the hall.

“Beiran, I really didn’t see you wrong.” Yu Manwen said, standing up slowly and walking towards Jiang Beiran, “Zijin and the others have told me what happened along the way. You had helped the five children grown so much, and you’ve done an excellent job.”

“Thank you for the compliment.”

“But since you rejected me so strongly just now… that means you don’t want to be involved with them anymore, right? Or are you afraid that I will force you to embark on a journey of cultivation?”

“I…”

Just as Jiang Beiran was about to speak, Yu Manwen stretched out her hand to block him and said, “I understand. You are way more mature than your age. You know what you should do and what you shouldn’t do, and you are very determined. You’re walking on the path of your own choice. I appreciate this tenacity.”

Saying that, Yu Manwen patted Jiang Beiran’s shoulder lightly, “A person’s value does not necessarily have to be reflected in the cultivation. I was narrow-minded, and I was a little too hasty. I always felt that I couldn’t waste a good seedling like you. But I now understand that you have your own ideals and noble sentiments in life, so I will not impose my ideas on you in the future, don’t worry.”

Law Protector Yu’s long speech made Jiang Beiran bewildered.

“The ideal of life? Noble sentiment? What did those girls say about me?”

But no matter what the process was, Jiang Beiran still happy how things ended, so he cupped his hands and said, “Thank you for your understanding, Law Protector Yu. I will remember your commendations.”

“Okay, that’s all I have to say. In addition, I owe you a favor for helping me. If you have any needs in the future, just tell me. I can still say a few words in this Sect of Returning Hearts.”

“Thank you, Law Protector Yu!”

“Well, do your best, I’ll go first.” Yu Manwen pushed the wooden door and walked outside.

“This is really the end… it’s a bit abrupt.” Jiang Beiran thought.

It was a good thing for Jiang Beiran that Law Protect Yu to be so reasonable. At least he didn’t have to worry about how she would “torture” him.

Outside the door, Yu Manwen went out and nodded at Zhang Heqing who was waiting there, “Sorry for disturbing Order Master Zhang today.”

“Don’t apologize, you’re too polite. So, you and Beiran… finished talking?”

“Yeah.” Yu Manwen nodded, “He is a good disciple. It seems that Order of Blue Heart is really good at teaching. We Order of Water Mirror need to learn more from you.”

After hearing this, Zhang Heqing smiled modestly, “No, Law Protector Yu, we need to learn from you.”

“I still have something to deal with in the hall, so I will leave first. I will come to you next time to ask you for a lesson or two.” Yu Manwen was about to leave.

At this moment, Na Moman walked over with a tray full of teacups. Seeing that Yu Manwen seemed to be leaving, he didn’t know what to do for a while.

When Zhang Heqing saw it, he immediately took the teacup on the tray and handed it to Yu Manwen, “Law Protector Yu, drink the tea before you go. It’s just brewed, and it’s very fragrant.”

“Okay.” Yu Manwen took a sip from the teacup and commented, “It’s really fragrant, good tea.”

“I’m glad you like it. I have quite a few more. You can bring some back home and give Order Master Xu a taste.”

“That’s no need, but thank you for your kindness, I’ll leave first.” After speaking, Yu Manwen put the teacup back on the tray and walked outside.

“Then I’ll send it to you…!”

Looking at Zhang Heqing’s chasing figure, Jiang Beiran shook his head and sighed. The handsome image of the Order Master was completely shattered in his heart.

“Love makes people crazy!”

After about a stick of incense, Zhang Heqing finally walked back with a little excited expression on his face.

Seeing Jiang Beiran, who was still waiting at the entrance of the hall, Zhang Heqing coughed lightly, “Beiran, your iron seal this time is very good, you have raised the reputation of Order of Blue Heart, and I will remember your credit. ”

“Thank you, Order Master.”

“Law Protector Yu seems to have a good impression of you. If you have the opportunity, you should get to know her more… Eh? Why are you looking at me like that? We should maintain a good relationship with them, maybe we can help each other in the future.”

Hearing what the unbelievable speech from Order Master, Jiang Beiran lowered his head and cupped his hands, “I understand.”

“Well…then you can go back and continue the game.”

“Yes.”

Just as Jiang Beiran wanted to go back to Pavilion of Blue Heart, he heard Zhang Heqing calling him again, “Beiran, please ask Law Protector Yu come here again if you have the chance. It is for the future development of our order.”

“There’s no way that I’ll believe in you!”

Resisting the urge to complain, Jiang Beiran nodded and agreed. But of course, he would only do this according to his mood..
