Chapter 2787 There’s Trouble
What surprised Han Yu the most was that the distinguished guests from all over the Jiang family had no complaints about the Jiang family's move. Even Tianhe and Li Diefeng, who had just arrived today, also put down their arrogance and went to greet them outside the door.
And Han Yu also noticed a detail. This morning, Jiang Mantian kept Jiang Ruoxi with him.
This is very unfair to other candidates. As the leader of the clan, Jiang Mantian should not be partial.
"Junior brother Xiao, why did you agree to Jiang Woyun and become Jiang Ruoyu's helper?" Tianhe walked up to Han Yu and said somewhat speechlessly.
He only found out when he came here this morning and saw Han Yu.
It can be said that with Han Yu's status, he is lowering his status to promote the Jiang family.
"Come and have fun." Han Yufeng said calmly.
"Does the ninth uncle know?" Tianhe asked carefully.
Han Yu shook his head.
Tianhe was stunned and said: "Junior Brother Xiao, if the Ninth Junior Uncle knows about this, I'm afraid..."
Tianhe didn't say much, but Han Yu knew what it meant.
Said: "It's okay, she doesn't have time to worry about these things."
Tianhe was speechless, but seeing Han Yu being so calm, it was hard to say anything more.
Han Yu paused for a moment and then said: "What kind of existence is it that even you have to go out to greet me and call me?"
Tianhe said somewhat mysteriously: "You'll know when you see him."
Tianhe paused and thought for a while and said, "Junior brother Xiao, you may be in trouble today."
After saying that, Tianhe laughed a little gloatingly.
Han Yu rolled his eyes.
However, he was very confused in his heart. Tianhe would never talk nonsense, so it seemed that he had to be more careful.
A large group of people arrived outside the gate of Jiang's house, waiting obediently like students. Even Jiang Mantian looked a little reserved. As for Jiang Ruoxi next to Jiang Mantian, she was already sweating nervously.
After waiting for about half an hour, a somewhat dissatisfied voice suddenly sounded.
"Clan Chief Jiang, did you do this intentionally to show me, or did you do it to show others?"
This was a woman's voice, and a very hearty voice.
"Here it comes!" Han Yu was looking forward to it. The rightful owner who was waiting for him finally arrived.
From the tone of his voice, it sounds like this person doesn't like these red tapes and pretentiousness.
Jiang Mantian laughed and said, "Jiang is so sincere, fellow Taoist Seventeenrs, don't be offended!"
"Seventeenth fellow Taoist?" Han Yu's eyes lit up.
Tianhe sent a message: "Do you know who it is?"
Han Yu nodded, still a little confused and asked: "Since I am the Seventeenth Master, what trouble will I have?"
Tianhe smiled and said nothing.
I saw a woman wearing a light red dress descending from the sky, like a goddess descending to earth, extremely beautiful.
Especially the elegant and calm manner in her movements. Jiang Ruoxi, who is also a stunning beauty, seemed a head shorter in front of her.
This person is none other than Jian Shiqi, the seventeenth disciple of the Lord Wanjian, one of the two disciples of the Lord Wanjian. Although she is tens of thousands of years old, she looks like a young woman. There is still a bit of innocence of a girl in her bright eyes.
If he hadn't known her identity, who would have known that she was Jian Shiqi, a disciple of the famous Ten Thousand Swords God?
Compared with Jian Jiuling, Jian Shiqi is a little less aloof and unoffending, but a little more free and easy.
Suddenly, everyone except Jiang Mantian and Han Yu bowed and saluted.
Han Yu saluted only after Tianhe reminded him.
Not that Han Yu was stunned.
But he didn't regard himself as Jian Jiuling's disciple at all, and he didn't regard Jian Shiqi as his elder.
Jian Shiqi and Jiang Mantian bowed their hands in greeting without any pretense, and looked like very free and easy young girls.
"Ruoxi, I haven't paid my respects to the Seventeenth Fellow Taoist yet." Seeing that Jiang Ruoxi was a little nervous and a little disappointed, Jiang Mantian hurriedly spoke.
Jiang Ruoxi hurriedly saluted again.
Jian Shiqi nodded with satisfaction and said, "If Chief Jiang teaches this girl well, she will become a great person in the future."
Jiang Mantian laughed and said, "Since the seventeen Taoist friends are so fond of Ruoxi, if we don't take advantage of this good day to accept Ruoxi as a disciple, we will be following Jiang's wish."
Han Yu now finally knew why Jiang Mantian took Jiang Ruoxi with him. It turned out that he wanted to ask Jian Qiqi to accept him as his disciple.
He was rejected by Jian Jiuling before, but now he has set his sights on Jian Shiqi again.
Jian Shiqi did not agree, nor did he refuse to agree. Instead, he glanced at the crowd, finally locked on Han Yu, and said: "Xiao Ping, come here."
Everyone was stunned. How much money does this have to do with Xiao Ping?
Tianhe gave Han Yu a "take care of yourself" look, which made Han Yu a little confused.
Han Yu walked out of the crowd and came to Jian Shiqi. Jian Shiqi nodded and said: "The disciple that senior sister has chosen is indeed extraordinary."
Then Jian Shiqi looked at Jiang Ruoxi and asked, "Jiang Ruoxi, how do you think you compare to Xiao Ping?"
Jiang Ruoxi was puzzled by the question.
Jiang Mantian's eyes lit up, he smiled and said: "Master Nephew Xiao is the beloved disciple of the Nine Dao Friends. Ruo Xi is naturally inferior to him. Moreover, Ruo Xi had a competition with Master Nephew Xiao before and lost to Junior Nephew Xiao. However, if there is a real fight, Ruo Xi should not be weaker than Junior Nephew Xiao."
Regarding the previous competition between Han Yu and Jiang Ruoxi, many people thought that Han Yu was opportunistic and did not take it to heart at all.
Jian Shiqi said: "Then let Jiang Ruoxi and Xiao Ping compete. If Jiang Ruoxi wins, I will accept her as my disciple!"
Many people in the Jiang family were overjoyed. Jiang Ruoxi's face instantly showed a look of confidence, and she looked at Han Yu, full of fighting spirit. And that seems to be saying, Xiao Ping, you have stolen so much of my limelight, and now you have finally become my stepping stone.
Han Yu now finally understood why Tianhe said he would be in trouble before.
It seems that Jian Shiqi and Jian Jiuling are at odds with each other, and they have to step on Jian Jiuling's disciples even when choosing a disciple.
Although Han Yu did not recognize the cheap master, at this time, he could not weaken Jian Jiuling's momentum. Said: "Uncle, don't worry, I will never let you down."
After receiving Han Yu's agreement, Jiang Ruoxi seemed extremely relaxed.
This time, not only could she legitimately use Han Yu as a stepping stone, but she could also teach Han Yu a lesson regardless of any external factors. It was like killing two birds with one stone.
Han Yu, on the other hand, felt a little helpless.
He must win this battle. If he didn't win, Jian Jiuling would probably skin him; but if he won, it would be equivalent to cutting off Jiang Ruoxi's path to becoming a disciple of Jian Qiu's Seventeenth Sect, and he would definitely be at odds with the Jiang family.
But when he thought about it again, Han Yu had no scruples.
Although the Jiang family was strong, in his eyes, what did it mean at this moment?
