Chapter 1019: Chapter 1019: You’re Not Worthy

Pfft!

Wan An stared wide-eyed, somewhat doubting if he had heard wrong.

“Some things mustn’t be said lightly!”

Dealing with the Venerable Bodhisattva every day?

What kind of earth-shattering statement is that?

Jiang Fan blinked innocently and said, “I’m not speaking lightly.”

“I am the Imperial Messenger of the Bodhisattva, the interpreter appointed by the Ten Thousand Tribulations Holy Temple Venerable, and a partner of the True Word Venerable.”

Huh?

Even Hua Wuying was stunned.

No, the Ten Thousand Tribulations Venerable only mentioned it casually.

You’ve already crafted an identity for yourself so quickly?

She was shocked, not to mention Wan An?

The latter two might be made up, but as for being the Imperial Messenger of the Bodhisattva, no one would dare fabricate that, right?

After all, once the word “Bodhisattva” is spoken, it must inevitably reach the ears of the Bodhisattva themselves.

Who would dare make up such an identity?

“How… how did you do it?” Wan An swallowed hard.

He couldn’t even meet the God Transformation Bodhisattva once easily.

The illegitimate child of Qian Lan Fairy, yet he’s already established such a connection with the Venerable Bodhisattvas.

Jiang Fan thought earnestly, “It doesn’t seem so hard, somehow, they just inexplicably acknowledged me.”

“Oh right, Senior Wan An, didn’t you say you wanted to introduce me to some influential people?”

“Shall we go meet them then?”

Wan An put on a stiff smile, “Another day, perhaps another day.”

Most of the ones he knew were probably friends around his realm level, occasionally a few seniors with Four Apertures Nascent Soul.

These were negligible in front of Jiang Fan’s connections.

“Oh, I was hoping to meet more friends,” Jiang Fan said disappointedly.

Wan An felt embarrassed.

Isn’t maintaining good relations with both Venerable and a Bodhisattva enough, is there even a need to meet more people?

As he felt increasingly awkward, they finally arrived at Qian Lan Fairy’s other courtyard.

It was a residence built next to a volcano crater.

With extremely high temperatures, it was a rather comfortable environment for cultivating fire-type Divine Skills.

“That’s Qian Lan Fairy’s Cave Mansion, I’ll go…”

Just as he was about to step forward, his eyes squinted slightly when he noticed.

Standing in front of the courtyard was a woman exuding a cold air, her cultivation had reached the Four Apertures Nascent Soul realm.

Wearing a luxurious palace dress, her expression was serious, her gaze slightly cold.

By her side, there was also a miserable-looking young man.

Recognizing the visitor, Wan An quickly greeted, “Fairy Ci Ning, what brings you here?”

Fairy Ci Ning snorted coldly, “Where is Qian Lan? Where is she hiding?”

Wan An’s scalp tingled.

He glanced at the miserable young man and understood what was going on.

This disciple of Fairy Ci Ning and Qian Lan Fairy’s female disciple Luo Yingshuang had fought over a flame.

In the end, Luo Yingshuang won.

She benefited from half a bottle of True Spirit Blood from Qian Lan Fairy, which greatly enhanced the flame power within her.

She unexpectedly defeated the opponent.

Fairy Ci Ning couldn’t swallow this indignation and brought her disciple over to demand an explanation.

Fortunately, at this moment Qian Lan Fairy was not in the Cave Mansion.

He smiled and said, “Qian Lan Fairy must have had something to attend to, I don’t know either.”

Fairy Ci Ning snorted, “You follow her around like a shadow every day, how could you not know where she went?”

“Spit it out! My disciple has been beaten like this; she must give an explanation today!”

Wan An’s old face turned slightly red, bowing, “Fairy Ci Ning, these disputes among juniors, we elders should not get involved.”

“To avoid being laughed at.”

Fairy Ci Ning sneered, “Your disciple isn’t the one suffering, of course, you can say it so lightly!”

“If you intend to side with Qian Lan Fairy, I can hold you accountable!”

Wan An had a headache.

Where there are people, there’s the world.

And the world, often consists of various types of people.

Fair-minded ones, sure, but surely unreasonable ones too.

Ci Ning before him belonged to the unreasonable kind.

He was worried about Qian Lan Fairy, yet felt powerless.

He could only clasp his hands together and continue speaking persuasively.

Unexpectedly.

Jiang Fan snorted coldly, “Which shrew is causing trouble here?”

In the few words, he could tell, it seemed to be a quarrel among the juniors.

This person called Ci Ning, however, insisted Qian Lan Fairy give an explanation.

It seemed, Qian Lan Fairy’s life in the Fire Worship Sect wasn’t as good as she claimed.

Fairy Ci Ning glared icily, chastising sharply, “Which brat here dares speak recklessly?”

“Scram!”

Jiang Fan folded his arms in front of his chest, indifferent, “The one who should scram is you!”

Wan An listened, heart pounding.

The illegitimate child of Qian Lan Fairy, why such a fiery temper?

He hurriedly intervened, “Fairy Ci Ning, please calm your anger, do not let the younger generation get to you.”

He then said to Jiang Fan, “After all, they are the elders, don’t be disrespectful.”

Jiang Fan gave him a meaningful look.

“They’re already bullying us at our doorstep, and you still want peace?”

Were it the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion Master.

Knowing full well he couldn’t win, he would set things in advance, resolving the conflict long before Ci Ning came by to stir trouble.

He wouldn’t have let Qian Lan Fairy be hence cornered in such an embarrassing situation.

Wan An pursuing Qian Lan Fairy wasn’t wrong.

But it seemed he wasn’t sincere in his pursuit.

Knowing full well there was a conflict between Qian Lan Fairy and Fairy Ci Ning’s disciple, and well aware of Fairy Ci Ning’s temperament, today’s situation was foreseeable.

Yet he didn’t think about Qian Lan Fairy, nor did he step in early.

His pursuit was only superficial, as if he was putting on a show.

Wan An was rendered speechless by Jiang Fan’s retort and asked, “So what do you propose?”

What nonsense.

He was trying to help Qian Lan Fairy out of goodwill, and her illegitimate child was now blaming him for not doing enough.

How was he supposed to help?

Fight a Three Apertures Nascent Soul against a Four Apertures Nascent Soul?

Jiang Fan said calmly, “It’s simple, just teach them a lesson, making sure they dare not set foot here ever again!”

He spoke.

Walking towards Fairy Ci Ning, he said indifferently, “Since I’ve come across this, I can’t stand idly by.”

Fairy Ci Ning laughed in anger, her face brimming with hostility, “Where does this wild kid get off, acting arrogantly before me?”

She waved her hand casually.

A powerful Nascent Soul Power of a Four Apertures Nascent Soul condensed a handprint, slapping towards Jiang Fan.

Wan An’s expression changed, he sidestepped first and then exclaimed, “Watch out! It’s dangerous!”

Jiang Fan remained expressionless, his eyes gathering Thunder.

“Black Sky Eyes!”

Two arm-thick bolts of Thunder instantly melted the handprint, striking Fairy Ci Ning at lightning speed.

How could she have anticipated that a Second-stage Nascent Soul like Jiang Fan could pierce through her attack?

She was hit immediately by the two bolts of Thunder, her palace dress at the chest pierced through with two round charred holes, the flesh beneath scorched as well.

“Hiss!” Ci Ning staggered back, both ashamed and angry, “How dare you!”

Jiang Fan’s gaze was cold, “You’re the one being impudent!”

“Soul Capturing Lock!”
