I Just Won’t Play by the Book - Chapter 200

In addition, Jiang Beiran was also curious about the heaven-grade cultivation method, Heaven’s Retribution, which had already appeared three times. After all, there had never been such a situation where the same cultivation method was repeatedly rewarded in the earth-grade option.

Low-tier heaven-grade cultivation methods were rare, and it had even appeared three times. Or could it be that Ye Fan was closely related to this cultivation method. If he chose it, he would intercept it? Or could it be…

Jiang Beiran decided not to think about it. He wouldn’t choose a heaven grade option anyway, so there was no need for him to dwell on this matter.

“Just try to live peacefully. Don’t throw yourself into more troubles.” Jiang Beiran thought to himself.

After choosing option 4, Jiang Beiran suddenly exerted force with his right hand, intending to directly crush the bracelet. “Eh!?!

Jiang Beiran never expected that he not only did he not crush the bracelet, but there was also not even a single crack on the bracelet.

“This can be used as a magical item to knock people down, right?!”

After understanding the hardness of the bracelet, Jiang Beiran suddenly increased the strength of his grip.

“Stop, stop! You’ll break it.”

Just as Jiang Beiran was pinching the bracelet, a voice suddenly sounded in his mind.

“You hid yourself really well.”

Jiang Beiran could sense that there was something in the bracelet before he spoke to him. However, Jiang Beiran no longer had the interest to chat with it. After experimenting and choosing options many times, he was sure that even if it was a strong spirit, it was a bad spirit who posed a huge threat to him.

Therefore, he used more force to break the bracelet.

“Really, stop pinching! Listen to me, I was originally a mystic guru level powerhouse. Because of an accident, I could only temporarily attach myself to this bracelet. I can be a great help to you! Why are you still using so much strength?! It’s really going to break! If it breaks, I won’t be able to help you anymore. Stop!”

However, Jiang Beiran naturally wouldn’t listen to the spirit. He didn’t want to ask the spirit why he didn’t react just now. He only ran out after knowing that he had the ability to destroy him.

After all, he already knew that this mystic guru expert in the bracelet was a threat to him. Talking to him would only cause trouble.

“But it’s really hard. Looks like I’ll have to put more effort to break it.”

Thinking of this, Jiang Beiran looked at the other four people in the tent and said, “You guys go back to Jiyuan Town first. I have some things to take care of.”

“Yes.” Wu Qingce and the other two agreed immediately.

Ye Fan, on the other hand, was still kneeling on the ground and said, “Immortal, are you leaving?”

Glancing at Ye Fan on the ground, Jiang Beiran looked up at Gu Qinghuan and said, “Qinghuan, teach him the rules.”

After saying that, he left the tent.

Gu Qinghuan answered “Yes” to his big brother. He walked up to Ye Fan, who had a blank look on his face, and said, “Don’t ask what you shouldn’t ask. This is the rule of the organization.”

Although Ye Fan really wanted to ask what he shouldn’t ask, he knew that this question was too stupid, so he decided to figure it out himself.

“I understand.”

Then, Gu Qinghuan pulled Ye Fan up and said, “Let’s go back to the town.”

Seeing the three masters leaving the tent one after another, Ye Fan, who was following behind them, really wanted to ask who the immortal was. However, when he thought of what Mr. Song had just said, “Don’t ask what you shouldn’t ask,” he held back his question.

On the way back to Jiyuan Town, Ye Fan looked at the three masters walking side by side in front of him, and suddenly had a very surreal feeling.

An immortal who could teach three top-notch talents had solved the “magic spell” that had troubled him for three years with just a lift of his hand. Although he didn’t take the immortal as his master, he could be considered to have joined the team.

Thinking of this, Ye Fan took out the golden formation plate from his bosom. When he observed it carefully, he found that there was a character “Jing” in the center of the formation plate.

“This… shouldn’t be a question I shouldn’t ask, right?”

With this thought in mind, Ye Fan trotted to Gu Qinghuan and asked, “Mr. Song, May I know what the character “Jing” means on this formation plate?”

It was the first time Gu Qinghuan had seen this formation plate, but he still answered calmly, “You will know when it’s time for you to know.”

“Yes.”

Ye Fan, who knew he had made a fool of himself again, quickly retreated behind the three of them. However, he didn’t know that a pair of eyes was staring at the formation disk in his hand with envy.

“Ahem.”

Hearing Gu Qinghuan’s light cough, Wu Qingce quickly withdrew his gaze and tidied his hair in embarrassment, pretending that nothing had happened. “Brother Jiang will give me one later… I think… Will he?” Wu Qingce thought.

Soon, the four of them returned to the town and stood in front of a butcher shop. Gu Qinghuan turned around and said to the other three, “You guys go back to the Ye Residence first, I…”

Gu Qinghuan had just finished speaking when he felt the ground suddenly shake, and the shaking was getting stronger and stronger.

“The earth is shaking! Run!”

“Son! Come to your mother!”

“What are you still doing? Run!”

All of a sudden, the entire Jiyuan Town was in a chaos. All the townsfolk were running out. Although they did not know where to run to, they knew that they would die if they stayed in the house.

However, just as the townsfolk were rushing out, the terrifying earthquake suddenly disappeared.

Wu Qingce and the other two looked at each other and felt that the earthquake must be related to their senior brother (master). Otherwise, how could it be so coincidental that the earthquake occurred right after Jiang Beiran sent them away.

Ye Fan also read something from the three gentlemen’s gazes and thought to himself, “Could this earthquake be the spell of that immortal?”

In the distance, Jiang Beiran swung his right hand and looked at the huge pit that was smashed under him with a ‘tsk’ sound.

“It seems like I used too much strength…”

After realizing that he could not crush the black bracelet, Jiang Beiran decided to give it a fatal blow. However, he seemed to have used too much strength now.

“Forget it. At least I solved the problem.”

At this moment, the bracelet that was smashed by Jiang Beiran’s fist had completely turned into dust. The wind would probably blow it away. The haunting voice that had changed from a discussion to a plea for mercy and finally turned into a threat had completely disappeared.

( Option mission completed. Reward: Strength + 1]

Seeing the notification, Jiang Beiran felt a lot more ease. No matter how vicious the curse of the mystic guru in the bracelet was, it did not affect Jiang Beiran’s trust in the system.

As long as the system told him that it was completed, it meant that this matter had come to an end.

“Eh? Someone came so quickly?”

Sensing several auras rushing towards him, Jiang Beiran instantly ran away.

A moment later, the deacons of the four great families came to the big pit that Jiang Beiran had smashed, their faces full of disbelief.

Jumping down from the hundred-meter-deep pit, the Ye family’s deacon asked, “Did you feel the fluctuation of the mystic energy?”

The deacons of the other families shook their heads, and then they were shocked.

They could believe that someone created such a deep pit, but such a powerful attack would definitely consume a large amount of mystic energy and produce a huge fluctuation of mystic energy.

However, they couldn’t sense any fluctuation of mystic energy around the pit. This could only mean that somebody had created such a huge pit without using mystic energy.

“But how is this possible!?”

The reason why cultivators were stronger than ordinary people was that they could use mystic energy to activate their moves, not because of how strong their physical bodies were.

The deacons didn’t dwell on this strange phenomenon that completely exceeded their knowledge. They directly went back to their masters to report the strange phenomena.

At the same time, when a group of disciples of the Ye family were having a meal together, a cousin at Ye Fan’s table whispered, “Hey, did you hear about the earthquake in the afternoon?”

“I did. A lot of people went out of their houses in panic.”

meone sm

“I also heard that someone smashed a huge pit 100 meters deep.”

“100 meters deep!?”

Hearing these three words, Ye Fan, who was eating, couldn’t help but be startled. Because of the instructions of the three gentlemen, he didn’t leave the town to see the huge pit. Therefore, when he heard the three words “100 meters deep”, he immediately confirmed that this was definitely done by an immortal.

“He’s too powerful…” Ye Fan praised Jiang Beiran in his heart.

“Hey, what cultivation level do you think would be able to create such a huge pit with a single strike?”

“Superior mystic practitioner?”

“I think it’s more than that. I think you should be at least a mystic spirit to do so!” “Yeah! I think so too.”

In the hearts of this group of youths who had not seen the world before, a mystic spirit was already a very high-level powerhouse. Many people might not be able to achieve this level in their lifetime. Only a powerhouse with such strength could do such a shocking thing.

Only Ye Fan silently shook his head and shouted in his heart, “Mystic spirit is nothing at all. He’s an immortal!”
