Chapter 240: Probing? 2
The reason why Yin Jianghong had always suspected that Jiang Beiran was hiding his strength was because Jiang Beiran did not show off many skills. He knew that Jiang Beiran was smart. Moreover, a youth who could resolve the crisis in Fengzhou “unintentionally” had stayed in Sect of Returning Hearts for six years and had only developed superb Go skills?
Yin Jianghong did not believe it at all.
Nodding his head, Jiang Beiran rolled his eyes and thought, “After probing me a few times with conversation, are you planning to change the method now? Do you want to use force?”
The meaning of the option to let him strengthen the Twenty-Eight Night Ghost Locking Formation was very simple. The purpose was to tell Yin Jianghong.
“You guessed it right. I am indeed hiding something. What I am hiding is the unparalleled formation-setting method in the world.”
Unlike playing Go, as long as the person who set up the formation had enough time, it was completely possible for him to kill the cultivator who was several levels stronger. It was very normal for him to hide this ability as a trump card when his combat strength was very weak.
Moreover, the learning and cultivation of formations were extremely difficult. There were many variables and patterns that needed to be learned. To be able to perfect a high-level formation like the Twenty-Eight Night Ghost Locking Formation in just six years was definitely a heaven-gifted talent.
“This should be enough to dispel Yin Jianghong’s doubts and make him feel that he has seen through my trump card.”
“I hope that the old guy can calm down a little after this.”
However, Jiang Beiran completely understood Yin Jianghong’s probing behavior. Just like how he took in his own underlings, he absolutely had to know everything. Only after passing through layers of screening and the system’s affirmation would he take in his errand boys.
It was the same for Yin Jianghong. He wanted to do something big with Jiang Beiran, so he definitely wanted to know everything about Jiang Beiran. It was human nature.
“But I should be the only one who know my own trump card. If one more person knows it, it might become an open card. An open card can’t catch the opponent off guard.”
Jiang Beiran felt that he had guessed it right, so he put away the compass and jumped down from the eaves. Then, he quietly returned to his bedroom.
After perfecting the formation for the whole night, Jiang Beiran did not feel sleepy. Instead, he was in high spirits. So, he decided not to take a nap. He took out a book of classics from his storage ring and began to study it.
It was not until 7 am that a eunuch came to the door and shouted, “Your Majesty, it’s time for breakfast.”
