I Just Won't Play By The Book

Chapter 204 Wasn’t this Plot a Little too Unnatural 2

When the Venomous Condor saw Jiang Beiran, it was also stunned. Then it whimpered a few more times.

“Good! I didn’t expect you to bring a helper! I’ll peck all of you to death!”

Jiang Beiran couldn’t be bothered to roast at this moment. He used his mind power to scan that woman. Her cultivation was mystic emperor level 8, this strength could definitely be considered an overlord in Lanzhou.

Jiang Beiran did not expect he would bump into a woman with such strong strength.

On the other hand, the Venomous Condor should be a powerful level 6 mystic beast. Otherwise, it would not severely injure a level 8 mystic emperor.

“Cough!”

At this moment, the female mystic emperor suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood and slowly fell to the ground. Her eyes were fixed on Jiang Beiran.

“F*ck… Don’t look at me. Hey, I didn’t do anything.”

At the same time, a ball of purple flame exploded on the Venomous Condor’s chest. It whimpered and fell to the ground. Its eyes were also fixed on Jiang Beiran.

“F*ck! That’s why I said don’t look at me. I really didn’t do anything!”

Or

“Cough, cough… The demonic beast poison me during the battle.” The Mystic Emperor said as she sat cross-legged on the ground. Then, she opened her eyes and said to Jiang Beiran, “Fellow mystic friend, please do me a favor. That Venomous Condor was hit by my Crimson Purple Flame and is definitely unable to move now. Take out my sword and chop off its horn. I will definitely reward you handsomely afterwards.”

On the other side, the Venomous Condor that was injured by the Crimson Purple Flame also flapped its wings and let out a cry. “You detestable human! You suddenly barged into my territory to kill me and steal my treasures, yet you still act so righteously. Shameless! Shameless! I will not let you off even if I become a spirit! Giao!!!”

Before Jiang Beiran could react to the situation, four options appeared in front of him.

[ Option 1: Kill the mystic emperor. Reward: Holy Book of Pear Blossom (middle-tier earth-grade)]

[ Option 2: Kill the Venomous Condor. Reward: Secret of Sunlight (high-tier black-grade)]

( Option 3: Leave immediately. Reward: Sun Chaser (middle-tier black-grade)]

[ Option 4: Scold the mystic emperor. Reward for completion: Random basic skill points + 1]

“What the hell… isn’t the plot develop a little too unnatural and forceful?!”

However, Jiang Beiran quickly came back to his senses. wasn’t this the “gift from the heavens” for Ye Fan?

If the plot had gone the way it was supposed to, the falling Ye Fan would have encountered a human and a demonic beast who were on their last breaths. As he did not understand the demonic beast language, he would naturally help this beautiful big sister to slay the demonic beast. From then on, he would marry a rich and beautiful woman and walk up to the peak of his life.

But now…

“It seems that I accidentally snatch the opportunity from Ye Fan?”

Sighing in his heart, Jiang Beiran was a little confused by the options. The first two options were very easy to understand, but what was the point of scolding the mystic emperor?

While Jiang Beiran was hesitating, the mystic emperor and Venomous Condor were still arguing non-stop.

“Mystic friend, what are you still hesitating for? Everyone has the obligatory to kill this great demon! As long as you kill it, I guarantee that you will get everything you want.”

“Stinky human! Stinky human! Stinky human! You call for help! Disgusting! Disgusting! Pah!”

“Mystic friend, quickly draw your sword! If you delay, it will get up again. If that demonic beast recovers, we will all die.”

“Stinky human! Stinky human! Humans are all evil!”

“Mystic friend!”

“Stinky human!”

“Mystic friend!”

“Stinky…”

“Shut your mouths!!! I’m thinking about something!”

Jiang Beiran, who finally couldn’t stand the human and beast chattering, roared angrily.

In an instant, the entire cave fell silent.

“Hu…”

Letting out a long breath, Jiang Beiran first chose option 4. He then looked at the Venomous Condor and said, “I’ll give you a chance first to explain what happened.”

The Venomous Condor was stunned after hearing this. “You know our beast language?”

“Yes, so seize this opportunity. That woman wants me to draw my sword and chop off your horn.”

“That evil woman!” The Venomous Condor let out a low growl after hearing this. It then looked at Jiang Beiran and said, “Humph! So what if I told you? You’ll still help that evil woman.”

“Alright, if you don’t want to tell me, then forget it. I’ll go get the sword.” After saying this, Jiang Beiran turned around and walked towards the mystic emperor.

“Hey, no, no, no! i’ll talk, I’ll talk! Come back, I’ll talk to you.”

“As expected…” Jiang Beiran cursed in his heart before turning around to look at the Venomous Condor.

Meng Sipei, who was behind him, was completely dumbfounded. She listened to the handsome young man using the ‘bird language’ to talk to the Venomous Condor. He had no intention of caring about her at all.

“This is bad… could it be that he is a strong demonic beast that can transform into human form?” When she thought of this, Meng Sipei’s face turned pale.

The venomous poison of this demonic beast was too powerful. She could not absorb the spiritual essence in the surroundings, nor could she mobilize the mystic energy in her body. She could not even exert much strength. It could be said that she was completely crippled.

If that man was really a strong demonic beast that could transform into human form, then she would be finished.

The extremely flustered Meng Sipei hurriedly activated her cultivation method again, but it was useless. She still couldn’t sense the spiritual essence around her.

Helpless, she could only open her mouth and say, “Mystic friend… if you really are a demonic beast in human form, then please give me a quick death.”

After hearing this, Jiang Beiran turned around and waved his hand at her. “It’s your turn later. You should take a rest first.”

“‘I…”

This was the first time Meng Sipei had been ignored like this. She had mixed feelings, and when she recalled how many other men had seen her. Meng Sipei was absolutely certain in her despair.

“He must be a demonic beast in human form.”

On the other side, the Venomous Condor that had opened its mouth kept on denouncing Meng Sipei’s despicable actions.

“I’ve been living in this cave for two hundred years! I’ve been cultivating every day, but I’ve never provoked this evil woman. Just now, she suddenly rushed into my cave and asked me to hand over the spirit enlightening ore. This is a treasure that I’ve nurtured myself! Of course, I’m not willing to give it to her!”

“Mm, are you sure she said that she wants you to hand over the spirit enlightening ore? If you’re lying, I won’t be able to help you.”

“This… I didn’t say it directly, but I know that she came here to snatch my treasure!”

“Alright, then from now on, I’ll ask you questions, and you’ll answer.”

The Venomous Condor nodded.

“Have you eaten anyone?”

“No, I’ve been cultivating in the cave and never went out.”

“You haven’t gone out for two hundred

years?”

“Yeah, when mother left, she said that it was dangerous outside and told me to stay in the cave.”

“You’re really obedient…”

“What about your mother?”

“My mother left me after I grew up.”

Jiang Beiran knew that the mystic beast was like this when he heard the voice of the Venomous Condor.

Then, Jiang Beiran asked the Venomous Condor a series of questions. He could basically confirm that it was a harmless mystic beast.

“But what does this have to do with the system asking me to scold that woman?” After pondering for a moment, Jiang Beiran almost had an answer.

In the Lanzhou’s territory, a mystic emperor was definitely a big shot. Killing her would definitely be troublesome.

And if he helped the mystic emperor to kill the Venomous Condor, it might attract other powerful mystic beast to take revenge of Venomous Condor.

If he left them be, there were even more unpredictable factors.

Therefore, the intention of scolding the mystic emperor was to resolve this matter peacefully. The best outcome would be for both sides not to get hurt.

“But the system wants me to scold her instead of persuade her… it really means a lot.”

After sorting out his thoughts, Jiang Beiran looked at the Venomous Condor and said, “Alright, wait for me.”

om

“Are you not going to help that woman kill me?” The Venomous Condor stared at Jiang Beiran and asked.

However, Jiang Beiran did not answer it. Instead, he walked in front of the mystic emperor.

“Humph! Kill me if you want! I will not submit to you demonic beasts!” Meng Sipei turned her head and shouted.

“Heh, you have quite a temper when you do something wrong, don’t you? Don’t you have any shame?”

Meng Sipei was stunned after hearing that. “What did I do wrong? You demonic beasts! All demonic beasts need to be dead!”

“Oh, what did it do wrong that you want to kill it?”

“It’s a demonic beast! It deserves to be killed!”

“I think you’re coveting someone else’s treasure. Tell me, are you here for the spirit enlightening ore?” Meng Sipei was stunned when she heard that, but she still shouted confidently, “Yes! What’s the big deal? After killing that demonic beast, its things should belong to me.”

“What a fantastic logic! I will teach you who is the real monster today!”
