Chapter 3 How dare she do that just now?
Jiang Lan knew the plot very well and would definitely not let the heroine step on him.
"Miss Qinghan, how do you think I should deal with you?"
He smiled faintly and looked at Su Qinghan who was surrounded by a group of guards with knives at their backs. "According to the current laws of Daxia, how should we deal with assassinating the family members of important officials?"
Su Qinghan's face turned pale. He never expected things to turn out like this.
She returned to visit her relatives, intending to inform them of the news that she had joined the Dao Cang Sword Sect, and at the same time wanted to beg her grandfather to cancel her engagement with the protagonist Lin Fan.
In her opinion, as long as she and Lin Fan did not complete the ceremony, they were not husband and wife in name. Even if they were husband and wife in name, she could divorce him with a piece of divorce paper.
Now that she is about to join the Dao Cang Sword Sect, her status and position will change dramatically, and she will have a great say. She no longer needs to compromise with her family's words and her parents' orders.
She has to make her own decisions about her marriage.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she returned to the family, she learned from her sister's maid that her sister Su Qingyao had been forcibly abducted in the academy.
After some inquiries, the angry woman quickly identified the murderer as Jiang Lan, the son of the prime minister, who appeared in Yuyi City.
This notorious man is also a well-known second-generation rich man in the entire Great Xia Dynasty.
After all, in Yuyi City, he was probably the only one who dared to rob a woman so blatantly and even had guards stop him outside Xueyue Pavilion.
Her younger sister Su Qingyao has been outstandingly beautiful since childhood and famous for her talent, and she has many suitors in Yuyi City.
This fellow might have passed through Yuyi City and heard that my sister was beautiful, so he suddenly had evil intentions and sent people to kidnap her.
So Su Qinghan found a way to avoid all of Jiang Lan's guards and took the opportunity to come to Xueyue Pavilion to rescue her sister.
But when he arrived there, he only saw a man in white leisurely drinking tea in the pavilion, but he did not see his sister.
She was anxious and impulsive, so she thought of threatening Jiang Lan and asking him to hand over her sister.
But Su Qinghan never expected this.
Jiang Lan was obviously just a second-generation rich kid who was obsessed with sex and drinking, so why wasn't he afraid of death? Shouldn't people like him cherish their lives more? Facing his threats, he seemed to have not heard them.
This is completely different from the result Su Qinghan had expected at the beginning.
Instead of being frightened and trembling with fear, Jiang Lan confused her mind and made her bear the blame for the assassination with an excuse.
"If Master Jiang hadn't kidnapped my sister, I wouldn't have acted on impulse and done such a thing..."
Su Qinghan was not an ordinary person. In this situation, he quickly took a deep breath, calmed himself down, and explained.
Jiang Lan interrupted her as if he had heard a joke, and said calmly, "Let's not talk about it first. Whether I have kidnapped your sister or not, even if I have kidnapped your sister, what can you do about it?"
"Miss Su just hurt me. Just for assassinating me, do you think it's enough for you and the Su family behind you to be buried together?"
"Jiang... Master Jiang Lan, I was impulsive just now and I apologize to you, but my sister Su Qingyao is young and ignorant. I don't know how she offended Master Jiang Lan..."
Su Qinghan clenched her jade hands.
She could not afford the charge of assassinating the prime minister's son, and the Su family behind her could not afford it either.
Jiang Lan frowned slightly, but still said slowly, "Miss Qinghan wanted to kill me just now. Do you think it's appropriate for you to apologize like this?"
"Even if you're apologizing, you have to be sincere, right?"
After saying this, he lowered his eyes again and blew out a breath of hot air, his gesture casual and indifferent.
Jiang Lan currently has no intention of paying attention to Su Qinghan.
As he was familiar with the plot, it was impossible for him to not be prepared when he knew that Su Qinghan would come to him on his own initiative.
Villain system?
Golden finger?
Jiang Lan sighed slightly in his heart. He had been shouting for so long, but there was still no response. It seemed that he really didn't have any golden fingers.
After traveling to this world, my original self really didn't have any cultivation at all.
Even if you eat a lot of natural treasures and Ganoderma lucidum, it will be of no use at all.
The original body was like a natural big funnel, leaking out as much spiritual energy from heaven and earth as it came in.
Otherwise, with the foundation and strength of the Prime Minister's Mansion, how could he become an ordinary person with no cultivation?
So, Jiang Lan’s headache now is.
If I don’t have a golden finger, how can I improve my strength in the future?
This is a fantasy world of immortals. No matter how powerful your background is now, it is ultimately fake and a fantasy.
Without any cultivation and relying on some life-extending elixir, one can only live to a hundred years at best, by which time he will have turned into a pile of dry bones.
This is not the fate Jiang Lan wanted.
As for Lin Fan, the protagonist of the original book, Jiang Lan had been thinking about how to kill him since the moment he knew his identity.
Not to mention that in the plot, he has already kidnapped Lin Fan's sister-in-law.
His father's stance alone meant that he was destined to become Lin Fan's enemy in the future, and his entire family would be doomed to die.
A powerful minister who brings chaos to the government is destined to have no good ending, no matter which dynasty he is in.
If he doesn't kill Lin Fan, Lin Fan will kill his entire family.
So Lin Fan must die.
At this moment, he seemed to sense Jiang Lan's thoughts.
A warm, ancient and mysterious aura suddenly emanated from between his eyebrows.
The aura is heavy and majestic, unpredictable and incomprehensible, like the long river of time rolling in from the ancient times, or like the vast and boundless world rushing towards you.
Jiang Lan was suddenly stunned, then slightly happy.
Although he had never practiced cultivation and had not opened up the space of his sea of consciousness, he could clearly see the scene in his Niwan Palace.
A lush green vine, as if carved from flawless jade, shrouded in a mysterious aura, took root there.
The vines are not thick, and the leaves are green and crystal clear, like jade, sparkling with a bright luster, and there are wisps of mist-like substances lingering around them.
And at the end of the vine, there is something that looks like a fruit, hanging there.
It is only the size of a thumb, and is filled with a mysterious and unfathomable aura.
Fruit of luck?
A thought flashed through Jiang Lan's mind, and he instantly understood the name of this thing.
It turns out that I also have a golden finger.
And it is also related to the destiny in the world.
When the fruit is ripe, you will get a complete fruit of luck and destiny.
As for what the Qiyun Dao Fruit can bring to him, Jiang Lan is still unclear.
Anyway, this is good stuff for sure.
