As the majestic voice fell, the second elder sat down heavily and looked at Jiang Jie with a look of helplessness in his eyes.
Although it seemed that the second elder suffered a big loss and made a compromise, Jiang Fan could guess a little bit about what he was planning in his heart.
As the former Jiang family's real talker, it is naturally easy to mobilize the family's resources.
As long as a little use is enough, Jiang Jie's strength will skyrocket, and it is not impossible to win against the Mirror of Judgment.
Compared to the current fight with Jiang Fan, where both parties would suffer, and not being able to participate in the family competition, this is a way to get the best of both worlds.
Jiang Fan cursed the second elder's cunningness in his heart, but at the same time he secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Although this result put him in danger, overall, it was of great help to his plan, and now it is also Only by putting it to death and surviving can the situation be completely reversed.
"Jiang Fan, let's wait and see!"
Seeing that the overall situation was decided, Jiang Jie's hands creaked and he wished he could go and kill Jiang Fan immediately. If Jiang Fan hadn't been so eloquent, how could he have caused such a big trouble.
But facing Jiang Jie's resentful gaze, Jiang Fan just shrugged slightly, showing that it had nothing to do with him.
What an idiot for shooting yourself in the foot.
However, since you want to play conspiracy, then I, Jiang Fan, will definitely accompany you to the end!
...
The night is hazy and the stars are bright.
With the formulation of new rules for the clan competition, the elders' meeting that had been in a stalemate for most of the day finally came to an end, and all the elders, deacons, and family members also dispersed.
Looking at Jiang Xiaonan, who was walking towards him with a somewhat pale face, Jiang Fan's face was full of guilt: "Grandpa, I made you worry about me again..."
"Silly boy, I can't blame you for this."
Jiang Xiaonan patted Jiang Fan on the shoulder, with a relieved smile on his pale face, and sighed softly: "Although your child is a bit naughty, he has an upright character and is not afraid of power. Grandpa was wrong before, thinking that he could protect himself by swallowing his anger. Good for you, but I didn’t expect that it would put you in danger, and it’s all because of Grandpa’s uselessness..."
Speaking of this, Jiang Xiaonan looked up at the starry sky, seemingly seeing Jiang Fan's deceased parents, with deep sadness and helplessness in his deep eyes.
The tip of Jiang Fan's nose felt sore. He gently held Jiang Xiaonan's skinny palm and said firmly: "Grandpa, don't worry. These things will be solved sooner or later. It's just a matter of time. And...your grandson is not a soft person." Persimmon, since they want me to break through the Mirror of Judgment, then I will break through it and turn it upside down! Let them know who is the real pillar of the Jiang family in the future!"
Hearing Jiang Fan's resounding promise, Jiang Xiaonan's originally cloudy eyes gradually brightened. He nodded heavily, and then took out a small jade bottle from the storage ring.
"This is the Yunling Pill. After taking it, it can help you break through to the Qi Refining Realm as soon as possible. No matter what the final result is, you must remember that you will always be grandpa's proudest grandson!"
After saying that, Jiang Xiaonan stuffed the small jade bottle into Jiang Fan's hand. After a few instructions, he turned and left, leaving behind a dazed Jiang Fan.
Yunling Pill is a top-grade second-grade pill. Even the Jiang family, a wealthy medicine refining family, can only refine two pills a year. Jiang Xiaonan has already done everything he can.
Looking at his grandfather's hunched back, Jiang Fan stood still for a long time, with heat surging in his chest. He held the small jade bottle in his hand tightly and murmured: "Thank you, Grandpa..."
The night wind blew a bit of coolness, and Jiang Fan gradually calmed down from the excitement, and tears streaked down his face.
"Master, Master..."
At this time, a soft call came to his ears. Jiang Fan turned his head and saw Xi'er taking out a clean handkerchief from his sleeve and gently wiping the tears on his cheeks.
At the same time, Xi'er's eyes were also shining brightly, and she was obviously worried about Jiang Fan's clan competition in two months.
She opened her little cherry mouth, hesitated for a moment, and then mustered up the courage to say: "Master, no matter what the outcome is, Xi'er will always follow you..."
Hearing Xi'er's words, Jiang Fan grinned, stretched out his hand to rub her head, and said with a smile: "I, Jiang Fan, can do many wrong things in my life, but I must never let girls worry about me. And, you Is the young master the kind of person who likes to talk big and talk nonsense?"
Hearing this, Xi'er's pretty face turned red and she lowered her head shyly, but still stubbornly said: "Yes!"
Looking at Xi'er's cute appearance, Jiang Fan couldn't help but laugh. He immediately took Xi'er's hand and walked towards his courtyard.
...
Jiang Mansion occupies a vast area and has many courtyards. The quietest and most remote courtyard among them is the courtyard where Jiang Fan lives - the Snow Bamboo Forest Courtyard.
Speaking of this Snow Bamboo Forest Courtyard, it is quite peculiar.
But it’s not because the bamboo here is so rare, on the contrary, it’s the snow here. To be precise, it’s the only place in Qingyan City where it snows all year round!
As soon as he returned to the house, Jiang Fan's eyes suddenly became sharp.
"Master, what's wrong with you?"
Sensing Jiang Fan's abnormality, Xi'er looked around, but found nothing unusual, so he asked doubtfully.
"Well...it's nothing, I just feel a little hungry suddenly. Go to the kitchen to get something to eat." Jiang Fan said calmly.
"Oh...ok." Xi'er responded obediently, but she felt strange in her heart.
The young master never takes late-night snacks. Why do you suddenly want to eat today?
Although he was puzzled, Xi'er didn't ask any more questions and trotted out of the courtyard.
In the room, Jiang Fan still stood there, with a cold light in his dark eyes.
"What kind of skill is it to hide in the dark and spy on others in the middle of the night?" Jiang Fan quickly activated his spiritual power and shouted in a deep voice: "Since you are here, get out!"
As soon as Jiang Fan finished speaking, there was a "whoosh" sound, and a giant figure jumped down from the beam.
The person who came was a nine-foot-tall, burly man with a full beard.
The man was dressed in a black robe, with a huge sword on his back. His muscles were like steel and iron bones. Even under the black robe, Jiang Fan could still clearly feel the terrifying power contained in his body.
"You can actually find me?" The man in black robe frowned slightly, his aura was still as strong as a bell, but a look of surprise flashed in his eyes.
Hearing this, Jiang Fan immediately rolled his eyes, pointed at the majestic figure of the man in black robe, and said angrily: "I said, with your body shape, it would be difficult not to notice you."
"Haha, you are the first person in the spiritual sea realm who can detect the existence of me, Sheng Qi." The man who claimed to be Sheng Qi sneered, and then slowly approached Jiang Fan.
