255 Gong Caiyi’s Investigation 255 Gong Caiyi’s Investigation Fu Chaohun was stunned and quickly said, “Sect Master Gong, please wait!”
“You… you want to assign this task to Jiang Fan?”
This was completely different from what he had anticipated!
Could it be that Gong Caiyi was so spoiling Jiang Fan that she no longer cared about the bigger picture?
Ming Youlian was also extremely surprised and solemnly said, “Sect Master Gong, please reconsider!”
“Countless forces have set their sights on the Thousand-mile Eagle, including many powerful Martial Path Families.”
“Even I cannot guarantee that I can safely deliver the Thousand-mile Eagles.”
“Let alone Jiang Fan?”
Gong Caiyi acted as if she hadn’t heard.
With a stroke of her jade pen, she wrote down the task under Jiang Fan’s name.
This made Fu Chaohun both anxious and angry. He shouted, “Jiang Fan! What did you give Sect Master Gong in return?”
Just a moment ago, Gong Caiyi was vehemently opposed.
Why did her attitude make a 180-degree turn after a few whispered words in a corner?
Ming Youlian was also outraged.
She incredulously said, “Sect Master Gong, this concerns the Nine-Sect’s resistance against the Beast Tide. Please reconsider!”
“These ten Thousand-mile Eagles must not be lost!”
Although she didn’t directly ask like Fu Chaohun,
In her heart, it was hard not to suspect that Gong Caiyi had received some benefit from Jiang Fan.
Otherwise, this would be too careless.
Gong Caiyi hummed with an imposing aura, “How this sect handles matters is none of your concern!”
“The task to the Desires Sect is final. You can only choose another mission.”
Fu Chaohun was so angry his teeth itched.
Such a highly meritorious primary task was given to a piece of trash!
Unbelievable!
Helplessly, they had to choose a different task.
It was to go to the Giant Sect.
Once the task was settled, Gong Caiyi said, “You can depart after half a day.”
Preparing the Spirit Beasts, loading the carts, and pre-departure checks all took time.
Taking advantage of this interval, Jiang Fan wanted to see if he could break through his current realm with the Earth Phoenix Grass Marrow.
“Sect Master, may I borrow the Cultivation Room?” Jiang Fan asked.
Gong Caiyi immediately guessed his intention.
She reminded him, “I suggest you have more than three days of free time before attempting a breakthrough.”
“The medicinal potency of Earth Phoenix Grass Marrow is very potent and should be used little by little.”
“Taking it all at once will result in a lot of medicinal power leaking out before being absorbed.”
Is that so?
Jiang Fan thought for a moment and still said, “I’ll give it a try.”
Could the medicinal potency of Earth Phoenix Grass Marrow escape the absorption of my Transparent Spirit Root?
Gong Caiyi helplessly said, “You’re really stubborn.”
“Fine, use my secret Cultivation Chamber. Try a small amount first and you’ll understand the potency of this medicine.”
Under the envious eyes of Fu Chaohun,
Gong Caiyi led Jiang Fan to a fragrant secret chamber in the back hall of the main hall.
It contained the items Gong Caiyi usually used for cultivation.
There were also several silk martial robes for her to change into during cultivation, along with a chest wrap…
Wait, a chest wrap?
Jiang Fan’s gaze fell upon a silver embroidered brocade chest wrap on a shelf in the corner.
He couldn’t help but feel awkward.
“Why aren’t you going in?” Gong Caiyi looked at the motionless Jiang Fan with a puzzled expression.
Following his gaze, her face turned slightly red. She quickly walked over and hastily bundled up the martial robes and chest wrap together, holding them in her arms.
With a face tinged with redness, she walked out of the chamber.
As she passed by Jiang Fan, she gave him a resentful glance.
