Chapter 294: 294 True Face

Chapter 294: Chapter 294 True Face

Jiang Fan’s appearance was clearly reflected in Su Qiuning’s eyes.

“Jiang… Junior Brother Jiang?”

Su Qiuning was stunned on the spot.

She wiped the tears from her eyelashes, doubting her own eyes.

But this was indeed Jiang Fan.

“No, no, how can you be my Junior Brother Jiang?”

Su Qiuning suspected she was dreaming and kept shaking her head.

Though Jiang Fan was also quite powerful, how could he be as terrifying as the person in front of her?

This could not be Junior Brother Jiang.

Jiang Fan chuckled, “If you think you’re dreaming, I can pinch you awake.”

Saying that, he pinched her arm.

“Ouch~”

Su Qiuning inhaled sharply from the pain, waking up immediately.

She covered her red lips, her eyes wide with disbelief,

“Junior Brother Jiang! How can it be you?”

She still could not connect the ruthless person in front of her with Jiang Fan.

Jiang Fan rolled his eyes at her,

“Otherwise, who would be so kind, helping you kick away the entangling Tang Tianlong, picking out a dagger for you, and solving threats for you?”

Ah?

Upon hearing this, Su Qiuning suddenly understood,

“So that’s it, I thought…”

She was too embarrassed to continue, her cheeks flushed.

It turned out she had misinterpreted his intentions, thinking someone was infatuated with her beauty.

Jiang Fan laughed, “Thought I was lusting after your beauty?”

Su Qiuning was so ashamed she wanted to disappear. Covering her face, she said, “Stop saying that, stop saying that! It’s so embarrassing!”

“Hahaha!” Jiang Fan was amused and burst into laughter.

He somewhat regretted lifting his mask, thinking he should have teased her more.

Su Qiuning, blushing furiously, scolded angrily,

“You’re still laughing?”

“It’s all your fault for taking me to the alley!”

“If it weren’t for that, I-I wouldn’t have thought that way?”

Jiang Fan could not hold back his laughter, “I am currently being hunted by that woman from the Desires Sect.”

“If I dare to show my face in public, I will be immediately caught.”

Ah?

Su Qiuning was startled, “You’re being hunted by the Desires Sect Master?”

“Why? Did you offend her, Junior Brother?”

How could that be?

One is the Desires Sect Master, the other is a disciple of the Green Cloud Sect.

They should have no interaction.

How could it escalate to the level of a manhunt?

Jiang Fan’s face darkened at the mention, “It’s nothing much.”

“Just defeated her in a sparring match.”

“Unexpectedly, she couldn’t take the loss and wanted to detain me at the Desires Sect, and when I fled, she issued a bounty!”

“What a sinister temper!”

The more he thought about it, the angrier he became.

Su Qiuning, however, became increasingly shocked as she listened.

‘It’s nothing much, just defeated her in a sparring match…’

What a shocking statement?

After a long time digesting his words, she couldn’t help but worry for Jiang Fan, “Are you planning to escape from Desires City?”

Jiang Fan nodded, “I was prepared to leave when I saw you being harassed by Tang Tianlong, so I decided to deal with him before leaving.”

It turned out Jiang Fan came to the exchange gathering for her.

And it was while being hunted.

Su Qiuning’s eyes misted over again.

This time, she was moved.

“Junior Brother Jiang…” Su Qiuning choked up, gazing at the handsome face before her.

She was moved!

At this moment, she seemed to understand why a proud woman like Liu Qingxian would fall for Jiang Fan.

Even willing to be a concubine.

Suddenly.

Jiang Fan, catching a glance from the corner of his eye, abruptly pressed her shoulder down and said, “Hide!”

Su Qiuning was startled, “What’s wrong?”

Following Jiang Fan’s gaze, Su Qiuning saw the elite disciples from the exchange gathering leaving one after another.

It seemed the gathering had ended.

Jiang Fan teased, “Interested in joining me for a robbery.”

Ah?

Robbery?

Su Qiuning was in a daze, “Junior Brother, who are you going to rob?”

Jiang Fan smiled mysteriously, “Whoever is the wealthiest among them, I’ll rob.”

Wealthy?

Su Qiuning immediately thought of someone and exclaimed, “Ah? You’re going to rob Ouyang Jun?”

“This… isn’t this a bad idea?”

“Ouyang Jun is the Young Sect Leader of the Thousand Refinement Sect, his identity and status are well-known.”

“Robbing him could cause big trouble.”

If recognized, it could at least affect the relationship between the two sects.

Jiang Fan teased, “I am going to rob him.”

“And I’ll take you with me!”

Su Qiuning immediately showed a difficult expression.

She could not bring herself to rob anyone.

Let alone rob Ouyang Jun?

At this moment.

A convoy of carriages slowly departed.

It happened to be Ouyang Jun’s convoy.

Jiang Fan pulled Su Qiuning, quietly following them.

The group left the city gates, traveling on a wide official road.

It was already past midnight.

The moon was bright and the stars sparse, the shadows of trees swaying.

In the distance, the calls of unknown birds and beasts made the silent night particularly eerie.

Suddenly.

Within the carriage, Ouyang Jun seemed to sense something, raising an eyebrow, he said in a deep voice, “On alert!”

The disciples of the Thousand Refinement Sect immediately dispersed around the convoy.

He walked out of the carriage, looking around, and said loudly, “Brother, you’ve been following us for some time, is there something you want to say?”

Whoosh—

From the forest on the side of the official road, Jiang Fan, wearing a mask, jumped out.

Behind him, Su Qiuning followed closely.

She held a piece of veil covering her face, stammering, “Ro-Ro… Robbery!”

Ouyang Jun touched his nose, “Su Qiuning? You’re robbing me?”

Although she wore a veil, her figure, attire, and voice were hardly disguised.

This must be a joke.

He turned to look at Jiang Fan, revealing a look of realization and teasingly said,

“Brother, such skills, in such a short time, you’ve tamed Junior Sister Su to be so compliant, following your every lead.”

“Impressive! Impressive!”

Earlier when they left, Su Qiuning was very resistant.

Now, she was already following Jiang Fan for a robbery.

Jiang Fan’s forehead veins throbbed.

Short? You are short!

Your whole family is short!

He said with a straight face, “Miss Su was just joking with you.”

“I am here for an unfinished transaction.”

Raising his hand, he threw the Silver Winged Thunderbird’s claw on the ground.

Su Qiuning was stunned.

For a transaction?

Then why did you say it was for a robbery?

Realizing she had been played by Jiang Fan, Su Qiuning was so mad she wanted to rush forward and bite Jiang Fan!

This guy was truly detestable!

The embarrassment she had felt for years was all caused within a moment.

However, she was soon attracted by the mysterious item wrapped in the cloth.

Ouyang Jun also looked curious and asked mockingly, “Could it be some unseemly item?”

“Why then must it be exchanged in private?”

Jiang Fan said indifferently, “You’ll know when you look.”

Ouyang Jun signaled a disciple of the Thousand Refinement Sect.

The latter used a Low Grade magical artifact sword to carefully cut the cloth.

Inadvertently, the sword exerted too much force and cut into the curved part of the claw.

With a crack!

The sword broke into two pieces!

Ouyang Jun was surprised and carefully examined the half-exposed claw, recognizing it at a glance.

“The claw of a Silver Winged Thunderbird!”

He looked at Jiang Fan with disbelief, “Where did you get this?”

Jiang Fan crossed his arms over his chest and said, “The origin is clean, rest assured.”

Ouyang Jun’s gaze flickered, staring at Jiang Fan.

He suspected this claw was cut off by Jiang Fan himself.

Because the cut was very fresh.

It didn’t look like it had been stored for long.

But this was a Silver Winged Thunderbird, and judging by the size of the claw, it was definitely an adult, with strength at the Fifth Level of Core Formation.

How did Jiang Fan manage to cut off its claw?

Although he really wanted to confirm if it was cut off by Jiang Fan, Jiang Fan didn’t specify, so he couldn’t ask directly.

He pondered, “You want to exchange for Sorrow Frost, right?”

“This claw is not enough.”

“My requirement is the bones of a Beast King at the Late Stage of Core Formation.”

“The claw in front of me is only from a Beast King at the Mid-stage Jiedan.”

Jiang Fan was not too surprised.

Though the claw’s value was not less than that of a Late Stage Beast King’s bones,

it was indeed not Ouyang Jun’s target.

“What else do you want?”

Ouyang Jun glanced at the unconscious Black-Backed Blood-Eye Ape and eagerly said,

“I want a few more Three-step Drunk pills.”

“Ten pills, coupled with this claw, and we have a deal.”

Jiang Fan knew that was what he wanted.

Without hesitation, he said, “Not a single one left.”

Hearing this, Ouyang Jun was greatly disappointed.

But the next sentence left him stunned.

“But I can refine them now.”

Refine now?

Ouyang Jun was momentarily startled, then realized something.

He looked shocked,

“Wait a minute! You’re a Soul Master too?”
