At this point, there was no need for Xue Yu to hide anymore.
She could only take a gamble.
Judging from An Ran’s resolute attitude today, and the fact that she already knew about the existence of the hidden family... I bet An Ran would care about Jiang Bei’s other identity!
He is a very powerful ancient warrior!
"What does this have to do with my breaking off the engagement today?" An Ran asked back.
"Jiang Bei is an ancient martial artist." Xue Yu suddenly said.
"Oh." An Ran responded, waiting for Xue Yu's next words, because a mere ancient martial artist could not arouse any interest in her.
"Miss An should know how powerful the most powerful ancient warrior in Shanghai is right now, right?"
"I mean those who are active in the major families." Xue Yu added to this question.
"Grandmaster." An Ran answered without hesitation.
"It seems that Miss An has some understanding of ancient martial artists." Xue Yu looked as if he had expected it, and looked at An Ran with a faint smile on his face.
“…”
An Ran didn't say anything. To be honest... she had gradually lost her patience. If Xue Yu still couldn't say anything, she would just say goodbye and leave.
After all, it's already late.
"Ms. An, you know that Wanqing and I are also ancient warriors, but you probably don't know... we are also grandmaster warriors, right?"
After hearing this, An Ran was a little stunned.
She did have some knowledge about the hidden families in China, but she only knew the scale of the ancient martial arts world today...
Today, the ancient martial arts world has become deserted and can no longer be compared with Taoism. However, her family is from Taoism, and the skills they practice are also very different from those of ancient martial artists.
To be honest... she didn't think the ancient warriors were that powerful. They were just opportunists.
But if a martial artist reaches the level of a grandmaster and has unlocked the grandmaster's energy, he is still quite powerful.
Even a Qi Hai cultivator like her might not be able to defeat a senior Grandmaster warrior.
As for the Grand Master...there's no need to even think about it.
And Xue Yu and Xu Wanqing in front of them were only in their twenties, how could they become masters?
This is definitely one of the most talented people in the contemporary ancient martial arts world! Why did he choose to commit himself to Jiangbei and become one of the many fiancées?
And it looks like... there are still some problems?
Otherwise, why did Chen Ningshuang and others live with Jiangbei, while Xue Yu and Xu Wanqing moved out? Before, An Ran had never thought about this question.
"And what Miss An is even less likely to know is that... in fact, we have reached the Grandmaster level because of Jiang Bei's help." Xue Yu said calmly again, but there was a hint of complexity in his eyes.
Although the sound was calm, the effect it brought was really a bit outrageous.
An Ran was stunned.
The next moment, she stood up, her eyes widened, her gaze wandering between Xue Yu and Xu Wanqing, repeating Xue Yu's words just now: "Jiang Bei helped you become a master?"
That sound, that tone, if it were more exaggerated, could definitely be described as "sad".
"Yes, it's because of Jiangbei." Xue Yu nodded slightly.
"How is this possible? I have never heard of anyone being able to help others improve their realm!"
Perhaps An Ran finally realized her own loss of composure at this moment. She gradually calmed down, sat back in the chair, picked up the teacup in front of her, and drank the still slightly hot tea in it.
But her still slightly trembling hands perfectly showed the turmoil in her heart at the moment.
"Miss An..."
Hearing this, Xue Yu and Xu Wanqing also frowned.
This is not right...
How could An Ran know so much?
They didn't think An Ran would be shocked by such a thing, and would have such a big reaction to the issue of helping others advance.
It seems that without realizing it...some serious problem has arisen.
So, why does An Ran care so much about this?
Could it be that An Ran...is also from a hidden family?
But before calling An Ran, hadn't they checked? There was no family with the surname An in Shanghai!
For a moment, Xue Yu, who was originally well prepared, also fell silent.
The atmosphere in the room was filled with heaviness...
After a while.
An Ran couldn't hold it in any longer and took the initiative to speak, "Ms. Xue, Ms. Xu... Is what you said just now true?"
"Yes." Xue Yu said stiffly.
She originally only cared about An Ran's identity as a martial arts actor, and she had also come into contact with a reclusive family...had she never thought about practicing martial arts?
With the resources in the ancient martial arts world of the two of them, helping An Ran practice martial arts is actually not a problem at all!
Even though she is indeed a little older, but... just invest some resources in her.
Then let Jiang Bei help her advance to become a grandmaster. Although her strength may be far behind theirs, she is at least a grandmaster.
In other words... follow the same old path as them.
Isn't this the use of experience? !
Originally Xue Yu did think so!
But who would have thought that An Ran’s focus was so strange... Could it be that this woman really had some connection with the ancient martial arts world?
"strangeness……"
After getting Xue Yu's answer, An Ran's brows gradually furrowed.
Xue Yu opened her mouth, but she really didn't know what to say, so she chose to keep silent... because An Ran was obviously thinking about it at this moment.
Why does Jiang Bei have the ability to help them advance to Grandmaster level?
And she didn't even ask directly, but insisted on thinking about it herself!
Being speculated about this kind of thing in front of others... is really a bit psychologically stressful for Xue Yu and Xu Wanqing.
Once again, there was a long silence.
An Ran seemed to be trapped in her own world... She ignored all the reactions from the outside world and didn't care about Xue Yu and Xu Wanqing's tangled expressions at all.
This time, it was Xue Yu's turn to be unable to help himself. He stretched out his hand and waved it in front of An Ran's eyes, "Miss An...Miss An?"
"Miss An!"
"Hmm?" An Ran finally raised her head and frowned at Xue Yu, "What's wrong?"
“…”
"Nothing. What are you thinking about? We may be able to help you answer it." Xue Yu said with a dry laugh.
"What is Jiangbei's strength?" An Ran asked directly.
"This..." Xue Yu was dumbfounded. Is it necessary to be so direct?
And she really didn't know what Jiang Bei's strength was!
I just heard my grandfather say...
"Grand Master?" Xue Yu said hesitantly.
"Impossible!" An Ran denied this guess without hesitation, not caring at all whether it was polite or not.
"Could it be the Spirit Transformation Stage?" Xue Yu spoke again. After all, the Western Church had been making trouble recently, and Jiang Bei had the ability to kill the cardinal in the church.
He should be a warrior in the Spiritual Transformation Stage...
