100: Not Until One Sees the Coffin Does One Shed Tears
Liu Qingxian, with an apologetic expression, approached Jiang Fan.
Lowering her voice, she said, “Jiang Fan, just admit defeat.”
Jiang Fan blinked.
Why should he concede defeat out of nowhere?
He shook his head and said, “Senior Sister, my task hasn’t been inspected yet. Why should I admit defeat?”
Liu Qingxian couldn’t help but blush and whispered, “My father knows everything. There’s no need to pretend anymore.”
Jiang Fan was a bit confused.
What did he do that Liu Wuchen found out?
At this moment, Wang Chengjian also spoke in a mocking tone, “Jiang Fan, Brother is giving you a chance, don’t waste it.”
“If you’re really faking it, you’ll be dragged to the square and humiliated, which will also tarnish the reputation of our Sect Master Peak.”
“It would be better to honestly clean the latrines.”
Utterly baffling.
Jiang Fan gave him and Liu Qingxian a peculiar look and said, “I don’t understand what you’re talking about.”

“You should inspect my task first, and then we’ll discuss other matters.”
Liu Qingxian was anxious for him.
She had spelled it out clearly, there was no need to pretend anymore, and Jiang Fan still didn’t get it?
How could he be so slow?
Wang Chengjian squinted his eyes and snorted, “Not shedding tears until you see the coffin, are you?”
“Since you’re determined to not admit defeat, I’ll fulfill your wish.”
With that, he lifted the cloth on the basket.
Underneath, there was only dry grass.
On top of the dry grass lay a piece of honeycomb with fresh honey.
Liu Qingxian didn’t dare to look and sighed helplessly, “It’s over. Completely over.”
She felt utterly powerless.
She had hoped that Jiang Fan could show off a little on his first task in front of her father, so he wouldn’t underestimate Jiang Fan anymore.
But things didn’t go as she wished.
Not only did Jiang Fan not get a chance to show off, but he also made a fool of himself.
Wang Chengjian looked at the piece of honey with disdain in his heart.
Such a stubborn person.
This piece of honey was what he had sold.
The moment Liu Qingxian asked him yesterday, he recognized her voice and guessed her purpose in buying it.
Now, seeing the honey he sold appearing among Jiang Fan’s task items, he couldn’t help but find it amusing.
But after a moment, he frowned.
Why did it look slightly different than the piece he sold?
Thinking it over, he guessed the reason and chuckled, “You’re not that dumb after all, knowing to cut the shape differently to avoid being recognized at a glance.”
“However, your cleverness is misguided!”
“This piece of honey you bought has special fluorescent powder on it. It will show under certain light.”
Jiang Fan finally understood what he was talking about.
It turned out that Liu Qingxian’s honey was known to them.
They mistakenly thought the whole basket of honey was given by Liu Qingxian.
“You’re overthinking it.”
Jiang Fan curled his lips and said, “I collected this honey myself.”
“And there’s more under the basket…”
Before he could finish speaking.
Wang Chengjian sneered, “Still denying it at the last moment!”
“Then I’ll reveal everything!”
“Bring me an umbrella!”
A disciple immediately handed over a heavy oil-paper umbrella.
