Chapter 329
Three days after the defense battle of Wuyi City ended, Qin Ran finally arrived at Wuyi City.
He was in the corridor, watching his silly female apprentice running over from the other side to give him a hug, hanging on him. Her fondness for him was never concealed, just like the pure white snowflakes falling down from the sky outside the corridor.
Of course, he was also very fond of her, feeling very satisfied in his heart. Needless to say, who wouldn't want to have a girl like her showing undisguised affection for him, especially when this girl was also the one he was fond of. This was one of the happiest things in the world.
"Master, why did you come?" Li Shiyin asked in his ear.
He was worried about her, so he came. Qin Ran didn't say that. He said, "I came to take a look."
"Hehe!" Li Shiyin giggled, and then she seemed to remember something. She hurriedly got off Qin Ran, grabbed Qin Ran with one hand, and rushed into the study she had just come out of.
Li Shiyin pulled Qin Ran by the hand and stood in front of Li Zhan's bookcase. She proudly introduced to Li Zhan in a loud voice: "Dad, this is my master!"
What kind of situation can determine your position in the heart of the object? Look at how she introduces you to her friends and relatives. Li Shiyin's proud introduction could tell how satisfied she was with Qin Ran, and it could also tell that she was full of confidence that Qin Ran would satisfy her family.
However...how to put it?
At this moment, Qin Ran was stunned.
Yes, this Qin Ran was sinister, shameless, flexible moral baseline, his mind and schemes were deeper than the Mariana Trench, but...people are always more than one side.
He was also the master in Li Shiyins memory who was shy, innocent, gentle like the big brother next door.
In Li Shiyins perspective: On the day she worshipped him as her master, her master gently brushed away all her fears about the cultivation world with the gentlest smile; the first time she looked at the medical book, she fell asleep on the desk, and when she woke up, bright sunshine came in through the window, shining on her master as he quietly sat reading under the sunshine.
This was also Qin Ran, innocent, shy, gentle, delicate.
So when his sinister and shameless schemes against someone's daughter had gone on for four years, and now the girl's father was facing him, he felt the filth in his heart for the first time. He didn't dare to look the other person in the eye, and even wanted to turn around and run away.
He had imagined encountering such a scene before, but...how could a son-in-law's mentality be calm when meeting his father-in-law for the first time?
Upon hearing this, Li Zhan hurriedly put down what was in his hands, stood up from behind the desk. He carefully examined Li Shiyins so-called master, the legendary person like an immortal; the person who, according to his wife's analysis, had stolen his daughter's heart.
His first impression of Qin Ran was that he had delicate features. With black hair and white skin, gentle temperament, he looked like a well-read scholar. This was completely unrelated to the words he had imagined such as powerful, alchemy, scheming, immortal, etc.
As for calling him son-in-law...looking at his shy appearance now compared to his daughter's boldness, it was hard to say whether he was the apprentice or the master...
It would be better for his daughter to take him as a dependent son-in-law!
So Li Zhan's first reaction was to look down on this master a little. But fortunately he was no ordinary person and soon reacted. This was his daughters master. With his daughter being so powerful now, this master must be no ordinary man.
He did not rely on his identity as Li Shiyin's father, maintained a humble attitude, and saluted Qin Ran very politely, saying: Greetings, Immortal Master!
Hearing Li Zhan calling himself an immortal master, Qin Ran then suddenly remembered his identity as a cultivator, and his heart finally settled down. Thats right, he was a cultivator, and the other party was just a mortal.
"Cough!" Qin Ran coughed slightly, but he also did not rely on his identity as a cultivator. He saluted Li Zhan in return and said, "Greetings, General."
So by this point, the atmosphere of this first meeting between the "future father-in-law and son-in-law" seemed amiable.
Li Zhan walked out from behind the desk and smiled at Qin Ran: "I have long heard about the immortal master's name, and only today have I had the honor of seeing you in person... Immortal master please sit over here."
As he gestured for Qin Ran to sit down, he also asked someone to serve tea at the same time.
Qin Ran looked at Li Shiyin next to him, calmed himself down again, and sat down with Li Shiyin.
In front of her father, Li Shiyin still didn't dare to be too bold after all. But she was still proud and introduced to Li Zhan:
Dad, Master is the chief of Dan Peak of the Dao Sword Sect! There are only four peaks in the Dao Sword Sect, and Master is the chief of Dan Peak, one of them. And Master is the first alchemist in Dao Sword Sect. Alchemy is very impressive. The elixirs we normally use are refined by Master. And...and, Master knows a lot of things, Master knows everything...
Listening to Li Shiyin boasting about himself and saying good things about him in front of Li Zhan, Qin Ran still felt a little embarrassed, just smiling awkwardly but politely.
"I have seen the immortal master's elixirs before... Old Master Mo once said that the immortal masters alchemy level is at least rank five." Li Zhan said with a smile.
Qin Ran smiled and humbly said, "I just have some knowledge about elixirs."
When the topic raised Old Master Mo, the cultivator who sacrificed himself in the city defense battle a few days ago, the atmosphere in the study gradually changed from awkward to somber.
Qin Ran looked at Li Zhan and said first: The key to the victory or defeat between North Chu and Xuanqin actually lies not in North Chu and Xuanqin, but in Cloud Heaven Sect."
When Qin Ran started talking about the war, Li Zhan then asked accordingly: What insights does the immortal master have?
"The general does not need to call me the immortal master, just call me by my name." Qin Ran smiled.
Li Shiyin also nodded: "Dad, its very strange for you to call Master 'immortal master'. Master is actually only in his twenties, very young. "
"Haha." Li Zhan strategically laughed and said, "You also don't need to call me general, just call me uncle."
So Qin Ran then called Li Zhan uncle Li, and then went on to say: "The national powers of North Chu and Xuanqin were actually not that different originally. Its just that Xuanqin's losses were smaller than those of North Chu when the Evil Spirit Willow Rioted. But this bit of damage to national power is still not enough for Xuanqin to develop ambitions to annex North Chu.
"It is the transaction that the emperor of Xuanqin somehow made with Cloud Heaven Sect that is the key point of the current war.
"Once the cultivators of Cloud Heaven Sect are dealt with, the current plight of North Chu can be solved."
I understand the rationale, but what is the solution to dealing with the cultivators of Cloud Heaven Sect? Li Zhan understood the rationale, but what about the solution?
"I am currently investigating what kind of transaction Xuanqin made with Cloud Heaven Sect..." Qin Ran said, "But rest assured uncle Li, matters between cultivators, just leave them all to me. You just need to be responsible for the military side.
In front of the future father-in-law, this guy was still mentally imbalanced after all, promising elatedly to take everything upon himself, which was something his normal self would absolutely not do.
My Healing Game
If Qin Ran could solve the problem of the cultivators, Li Zhan would be willing to marry not only Li Shiyin to him, but also Li Shiwen.
He was very happy and said, Then Ill have to trouble you!
But Master... At this moment, Li Shiyin suddenly raised her hand and said, "There's not only Cloud Heaven Sect on Xuanqin's side!"
"Hmm?" Qin Ran's expression changed. He hurriedly looked at Li Shiyin and asked, "Who else?"
"That night when I was fighting the Cloud Heaven Sect cultivators, I ran into people from Boundless Sword Sect." Li Shiyin said, "That is, the two Nascent Soul stage cultivators we met in the Land of Immortal Legacy during the Evil Spirit Willow Riots."
Hearing this, Qin Ran's face changed drastically. He instantly knew which two people Li Shiyin was talking about. And as smart as he was, he almost instantly understood that those two people were after him.
