Fairy, help me practice

　Chen Yao had just walked out of Jiang Bailin's yard when he ran into Jiang Bailin who had returned.

　Jiang Bailin saw him coming out of his yard and frowned: "Why do you wait until I'm not around to see my brother?"

　How do you say this?

　Chen Yao didn't want to argue with her any further: "I just remembered it now."

　Jiang Bailin gave him a dissatisfied look but said nothing more.

　Chen Yao nodded to her and walked towards his yard.

　Jiang Bailin strode into the courtyard and said in a high voice, "Sister-in-law! I just killed the patriarchs of several small families and looted a lot of high-grade elixirs. Let's feed them to my brother!"

　After hearing this, Chen Yao thought to herself, doing it as soon as she thought of it is in line with Jiang Bailin's character, and her impression of her improved a lot.

Chapter 253: Top-notch?!

　When Jiang Bailin entered the room triumphantly, he was stunned to find that Jiang Baisha's dying breath was gradually showing new signs of life.

　"what happened?"

　Su Ning gave her a complaining look: "Be quiet, your brother is afraid of noise."

　Jiang Bailin approached the bed and lowered his voice: "What's going on? My brother's breath is not so messy anymore."

　"It was all thanks to Fellow Daoist Yu's generous help."

　"Yu...what did he do?"

　Although Jiang Bailin was very happy that his brother's condition had improved, he felt a little dissatisfied when he knew that it was Chen Yao's doing.

　"What can he do?"

　Su Ning glanced at her calmly and said, "Fellow Daoist Yu took out a top-grade Creation Pill."

　"Isn't it just a fortune pill?"

　Jiang Bailin chuckled, but then he asked with his big eyes with long eyelashes, "What did you say?"

　"Top quality?!"

　Just as Chen Yao pushed open the door, he heard Jiang Bailin's screaming voice coming from next door, and he couldn't help but hook his little finger to scratch his ear.

　"As for it?"

　He shook his head and closed the door.

　He had just obtained an entry for practicing magic from Ling Ning, and he planned to give it a try.

　After taking off my clothes and soaking in the hot spring, I felt the warm water squeeze out all the fatigue in my limbs, and the warm current wrapped around and caressed every inch of my skin.

　"Huh—no wonder Ling Ning stayed in the hot spring all day."

　Leaning against the pool, Chen Yao closed his eyes and rested for a while before taking out the book "Explanation of Dongzhen Jade Art" from his storage ring.

　I have been running around so much during this period that I have no time to study the magic in the future.

　He opened the book and began to study magic seriously. He found that with his current level and the newly acquired "seeking magic" entry, he could learn and master more than ten magics.

　So for more than ten days, Chen Yao did not go out.

　After he had mastered more than ten kinds of magic, there was a knock on the door.

　Chen Yao opened the door and found Su Ning with blushing cheeks.

　"How come sister-in-law has time to come to my place? How is Brother Jiang?"

　Su Ning didn't dare to look up at him, and lowered her head and said, "Much better, he's awake now. The ancestor asked me to come and inform you to get ready. I'll introduce you to the elders of the clan this afternoon."

　After she finished speaking, she still looked up at Chen Yao, her eyes full of resentment: "You are Bai Lian's son-in-law, why didn't you say so earlier?"

　Chen Yao smiled and said, "I just don't want to trouble you all."

　Su Ning thought about it, smiled and nodded: "Yes, if they knew you were the clan leader's son-in-law, I'm afraid the whole clan would have to welcome you, which would be very annoying."

　"That's the truth."

　"I'm also afraid of being bothered. Quiet and peaceful is best."

　It was obvious that after Jiang Baisha woke up, Su Ning felt much more relaxed and smiled more often. Her smile was as pure and peaceful as a lotus in a clear stream.

　Chen Yao nodded: "Yes."

　The two of them couldn't find any topic to talk about, so they just stood facing each other, one inside the door and the other outside.

　The wind blew through Su Ning's hair and gently touched Chen Yao's face.

　"Anything else?"

　Su Ning woke up with a start and took a step back: "No...no. Oh, get ready, I'm going back to take care of your brother Jiang."

　"Sister-in-law, take care."

　Su Ning left in a hurry, but when she reached the door, she couldn't help but look back and look at Chen Yao deeply.

　Chen Yao smiled and waved to her.

　She smiled timidly at him too.

　I feel pity for you.

　……

　"I disagree!"

　"Although this person saved Jiang once, Bai Lian is still a child. How can her words, which were spoken in a moment of rage, count?"

　The Jiang family elders gathered together to discuss letting Chen Yao join the decision-making core.

　Most people held opposing views and were noisily expressing their dissatisfaction.

　The elder who only obeyed Jiang Mengyang's orders retorted: "He's over a hundred years old, and he's still a child?"

　"Humph, she doesn't understand anything. She's still a child. How many times has she participated in family decision-making? How could she understand all those twists and turns, both overt and covert?"

　"Did she ever have a chance? Wasn't she always excluded?"

　"Anyway, I don't agree."

　"Your opinion doesn't matter."

　"I'm going to fuck your mother's wall!"

　"My mother's wall is your aunt's wall, you immoral bastard!"

　"My father is your third uncle. I'm a bastard, but you're not?"

　"boom"!

　A pair of fists slammed heavily on the exquisite long table made of brass and covered with thousand-year-old cypress, making a sound like metal and stone breaking waves.

　The hall fell silent, and everyone looked over.

　He is one of the three most important elders of the Jiang family, Jiang Mengmeng.

　This person rarely participates in arguments in meetings, but he arranges and handles all the dirty work in the family.

　The assassination organization among Jiang's children, Yedao, was founded by him personally.

　Jiang Bailin, who is now notorious and is a potential candidate for the new generation of elders, has also been trained in Night Blade.

　"Sixth Brother wants this child to be included in the decision-making level and attend the Jiang family elders. He must have a plan."

　The Jiang family is divided into several meridians. Jiang Mengyang is the third in this meridian, and the sixth in the entire Jiang family.

　Jiang Meng paused for a moment and said, "But the Council of Elders has its own rules, passed down from our ancestors. One child can't do that."

　He expressed his opinion and then stopped talking.

　The elders who had his support suddenly became furious.

　Jiang Mengyang, who was sitting in the main seat, said nothing and watched them quarreling quietly.

　"You bunch of ungrateful fellows, just the fact that this child helped Bai Lian stabilize the Jiang family and thwarted the Qingxu Sect's plot to devour the Jiang family is enough to make him a member of the Elder Council!

　"As the saying goes, rules are dead, but people are alive. Great contributions will be rewarded greatly! My family has already investigated this child. He's the best in talent, unmatched in luck, and even in connections, he has the backing of Hanyu Peak, the foremost institution in Kuanglu..."

　"Fourth brother, Hanyu Peak has been destroyed, and it was destroyed by the brat you mentioned. The Kuanglu Sect issued a notice themselves, saying that Chen Yao not only betrayed his master and ancestors, but was also a spy from the Demon Sect. Everyone, tell me, can we allow the Demon Sect's spies to infiltrate our Elders' Council?"

　The crowd was excited and boycotted in unison.

　"Seventh Brother, you're fucking bullshit! Bai Lian clarified this point long ago! Chen Yaoyuan was overseas at the time, how could he teleport back to Kuang Lu to destroy Hanyu Peak? Besides, this kid's rise to prominence has almost always been connected to the people of the Yongdou Demon Sect. I've never seen a spy who works by turning against his own people!"

　The lobby was in an uproar again.

　"boom"!

　The long table was knocked again.

　Everyone looked over and found another veteran, Jiang Mengtai.

　Jiang Mengtai is different from Jiang Mengyang and Jiang Mengmeng. He is low-key and extremely cautious in his work.

　At the beginning, Jiang Mengyang had not yet opened up the situation in Shenzhou. The Jiang family only had a small mudflat in Shenzhou and was suppressed and persecuted by the local people. It was Jiang Mengtai who gritted his teeth and held on, so he was not driven back.

　Later, in several major battles in Shenzhou, he was at the center of the situation and made all the necessary plans. He was a great talent in preserving the status quo.

　So his opinions were very important, and when everyone saw that he had something to say, they would calm down and listen.

　Even Jiang Mengyang, who had been resting with his eyes closed, opened his eyes.

　"I don't agree with letting outsiders join the Presbyterian Church. For one thing, it will cause unrest in the family."

Chapter 254 Joining the Presbyterian Church

　"Let's not talk about anything else. Just the fact that my Jiang family has thousands of sons-in-law is undeniable. If this boy were to join the Elders' Council, it would undoubtedly make those sons-in-law eager to make a move."

　Jiang Mengtai glanced at the elders present, finally settling on Jiang Mengyang's face. "Now that the Jiang family has gone from being open to being secretive, we need stability within our family so we can stand united against the outside world. If these people betray us, I'm afraid it will be difficult to deal with them."

　He paused, then added a few words to consider Jiang Mengyang's feelings: "Of course I don't disagree with Third Brother's opinion, but can we reconsider it and let him join the Elders Council after everything is settled?"

　This sentence was dispensable, and everyone knew that it did not represent his personal opinion. Therefore, after Jiang Mengtai finished speaking, a fierce argument broke out in the lobby again.

　As time went on, the quarrels gradually died down. Apparently, two of the three most important elders in the family expressed their opposition, which caused those elders who had originally agreed to slowly change their tone.

　Jiang Mengyang's brows furrowed more and more, knowing that he couldn't let them quarrel any longer.

　"First of all, Bai Lian is the head of the family. No one can replace her position as the head of the family."

　He began to speak, and the hall fell silent.

　Everyone understood the meaning of this statement. Ever since Jiang Bailian accepted the Jiang family's inheritance last time, no one had any doubts about it.

　"Then Chen Yao, as the son-in-law of the family head, should

　Take on a family responsibility."

　Jiang Meng interrupted: "He doesn't have to join the Council of Elders to take on responsibilities. Let him join Night Blade."

　Many people agreed with his opinion.

　Jiang Mengyang looked at Jiang Meng and frowned, expressing his dissatisfaction.

　Jiang Meng looked back fiercely. Since it was about his family, he would not give in.

　“The head of the family is not the knife of the family, but the one who holds the knife.”

　Jiang Mengyang's voice is like a huge bell.

　"But this kid is not the head of the family either."

　With Jiang Mengmeng as an example, some people immediately spoke out against it.

　Jiang Mengyang's gaze suddenly became as sharp as a knife, scraping across the man's face, and the man immediately broke out in a sweat.

　"Chen Yao's character is acceptable, and his talent is particularly good. At least he is much better than most of the backers in the family. Everyone, we should wait and see."

　"Looking forward, it would be better for him to leave more offspring for the Jiang family. If Bai Lian is busy, there are many girls in the family who can take over."

　"Asshole, what do you think my daughters from the Jiang family are?"

　The quarrel broke out again and the scene became chaotic for a while.

　Some elders looked at Jiang Mengyang calmly, with a hint of gloating in their eyes.

　Jiang Mengyang was already a little annoyed.

　"Shut up!"
