After returning to the Returning Heart Sect, Jiang Beiran first made a trip back to his own hut.

As soon as he pushed the door open, he saw a letter hidden under the crack of the door.

Bending over to pick up the envelope, he took out the letter and read it through.

‘Senior Brother has been promoted…’

Previously, when Feng Province had been cleared, the Returning Heart Sect’s territory had expanded greatly. The extra territory naturally had to be taken over by someone, and his senior brother was one of them.

While Jiang Beiran was reading the letter, Xia Lingdang, who was behind him, secretly peeked into the small house and realized that it was spotless inside, as clean as a new house. This made her instantly put away her original intention of showing off her cleaning ability.

Putting away his senior brother’s letter, Jiang Beiran went to Blueheart Hall again, only to find that the hall master was not there either. He reckoned that he had been sent out as well.

Jiang Beiran could not help but sigh in his heart as he looked at Blueheart Hall, which was being renovated everywhere.

“Rich, this is really rich.”

While Jiang Beiran was lamenting, Xia Lingdang was also lamenting.

Ever since she entered Blueheart Hall, that familiar gaze had once again focused on her.

Scorn, disgust, disgust, and so on…

This made Xia Lingdang instantly understand that her previous feeling was just an illusion.

She had thought that cultivators would not care so much about other people’s appearances. Now, it seemed that it was only the people around her master who did not care about her appearance.

‘Beside the master…They are all gentle people.

“Let’s go.”

Upon hearing the call of the host, Xia Lingdang immediately followed quickly. As for the gazes of the people around her, she was already used to it and did not care at all.

Jiang Beiran then went to Tianyun Peak. As expected, the Sect Master was not at home either.

‘Good fellow…This was the rhythm of the headquarters being emptied.

Jiang Beiran was even starting to doubt whether Shi Fenglan was the highest-ranking person in the sect.

‘Are you really not afraid that someone will take advantage of this?’

However, thinking about how Feng Province had just been wiped out, and their

old enemy, the State of Liang, had become the State of Liang, no one would cause trouble for the time being.

However, they should be promoting a batch of newcomers soon. Otherwise, it won’t look good if the headquarters is always empty.’

Since the people he needed to visit were not around, Jiang Beiran brought Xia Lingdang back to Tinglan Waterside Pavilion.

“Thump.” “Thump.”

After knocking twice on the door, Jiang Beiran soon heard a flurry of hurried footsteps rushing toward him.

With a creak, the door opened. Little Duo popped her head out and shouted,’”‘Senior Brother Jiang.”

Nodding at Little Duo, Jiang Beiran walked through the door, followed closely by Xia Lingdang, who exchanged a smile with Little Duo as a form of greeting.

As they entered the courtyard, Jiang Beiran could hear Shi Fenglan’s voice from afar.

“Little Shuishui, what’s wrong with you? Roll the dice.”

Oh, okay.” Yu Guishui replied. She picked up the die on the table and threw it out. However, her mind was not on how the die would roll out. Instead, she kept glancing out of the corner of her eye.

Until Shi Fenglan shouted,” Little Bei Ran, come quickly.””

The people around the table turned to Jiang Beiran and stood up in unison to greet him.

“Greetings, Senior Brother.”

Looking at the four people bowing to him, Jiang Beiran felt very uncomfortable. After all, from the moment he had met these five golden flowers, they seemed to have grown up together, appearing in front of him at the same time every time.

However, Fang Qiuyao was missing today.

Just as Jiang Beiran was feeling puzzled, the system’s options suddenly popped up.

[Option 1: Pretend you didn’t notice. [Completion Reward: Yuan Demon Breaking Formation Diagram (Earth Grade Mid-Rank)]

[Option 2: Ask about Fang Qiuyao’s whereabouts. [Completion Reward:

Random Basic Attribute Point +1]

“Huh?”

Jiang Beiran was a little confused when he saw the options that had suddenly popped up.

He had always been the only one who avoided these girls. Today, the system actually wanted him to take the initiative to approach them.

Something’s wrong.

However, even though there was something wrong, Jiang Beiran still chose the second option and asked,””Fang Qiuyao isn’t here today?”

[Mission completed. Reward: Constitution +1]

Liu Zijin and the other three were obviously stunned when they heard their senior brother ask about Qiu Yao, but they quickly became happy.

‘Senior Brother really has us in his heart!’

In her excitement, Yu Guishui took the lead and answered,”Qiuyao went home a few days ago. She won’t be back for a while.”

‘I went home…

Jiang Beiran pondered for a moment. Since the system had asked him to specifically ask about Fang Qiuyao’s whereabouts, it meant that her return home this time was definitely not simple. Otherwise, it would not have led to the option of a middle-level Earth Grade.

‘A premonition of big trouble…’

Sighing inwardly, Jiang Beiran nodded and said,””Alright, you guys continue playing. ”

At this moment, Shi Fenglan shouted,” Little Bei Ran, wait for a while.

Looking at the smug look on Shi Fenglan’s face, Jiang Beiran replied,” Call me if you win.” Then, he walked out.

After Jiang Beiran left, Liu Zijin and the rest finally realized that there was a tanned girl standing beside them.

Seeing that everyone’s eyes were focused on her, Xia Lingdang bowed to the crowd, somewhat at a loss. Then, she quickly caught up with Jiang Beiran, who was already outside.

Seeing Xia Lingdang naturally stand behind their senior brother, the four of them suddenly had a question in their hearts.

“How did she do it?!”

They had known Shixiong for so long, but every time they saw Shixiong, he would come and go alone. He had never brought anyone with him..
