Chapter 4525 Rejection of Attempts to Establish Connections: Zhongyuan's Guesses and Calculatio

He noticed Jiang Yunran's somewhat distant attitude.

A strange light flashed in Zhong Yuan's eyes.

Then, with a calm smile still on his face, he said...

“I know Miss Jiang has doubts.”

"But Miss Jiang doesn't need to be so wary."

"I have no intention of doing anything to you, nor do I want to take what you have."

Zhongyuan always had a warm smile on his face.

It's as if it naturally inspires trust.

If it were anyone else, they would have developed trust in them very quickly.

However, Jiang Yunran is not that naive.

Actually, even without Zhongyuan's intervention...

She may not necessarily be suppressed by Meng Xuanyi.

Therefore, strictly speaking, Zhongyuan's act of intervening in the injustice he witnessed seems somewhat presumptuous.

However, one shouldn't hit a smiling face.

Zhongyuan at least offered his help.

Jiang Yunran is not the kind of person who doesn't understand things.

So she glanced at Zhong Yuan and said, "Thank you for your help."

"If I have the opportunity later, I will repay you."

After saying that, Jiang Yunran turned to leave.

Upon seeing this, even Zhong Yuan was slightly taken aback.

Previously, he manifested in mortal form, walked the world, and preached the gospel.

He has also lent a helping hand to many people.

Who among them wasn't filled with gratitude?

In fact, the four guardians of wind, rain, thunder, and lightning all received his help in the past.

In the end, he devoted himself to following him and became a protector of the Humanitarian Church.

But Jiang Yunran in front of him, although she showed politeness.

However, there is a great sense of distance between them.

She really didn't want to talk to him.

This was the first time Zhongyuan had encountered such a situation.

This made his gaze slightly deeper.

This woman is not easily influenced.

However, Zhongyuan was unaware of this.

Jiang Yunran acted this way because her heart was no longer moved by other men.

“Miss Jiang, wait a moment…” Zhong Yuan said again.

Jiang Yunran paused, her willow-leaf eyebrows furrowing slightly.

She knew that things were not that simple after all.

"Is there anything else?" Jiang Yunran turned her head and asked calmly.

Zhongyuan also spoke seriously.

"Although the human group retreated that day, it's hard to guarantee they won't be watching the girl from the shadows and plotting against her again."

“It’s a bit dangerous for Miss Jiang to be traveling alone on Fallen God Island.”

"How about we travel together with the Taoist sect? That way we can help each other if we encounter danger."

Zhongyuan spoke gently and appropriately, without any scheming or malice, appearing very sincere.

Jiang Yunran shook her head slightly and said, "Thank you for your kindness, but it's not necessary."

"If there is any danger, there are still people from the Heavenly Mandate Immortal Dynasty."

These words alone constituted a rejection.

However, Zhongyuan had not yet said anything.

The Rain Protector, who was standing to the side, finally couldn't help but speak up and scolded.

What do you mean by that attitude?!

"My cult leader, out of kindness, lent a helping hand."

"And because of this, they even offended the Celestial Race."

"It's one thing if you don't thank me properly, but to refuse me like this is another."

"Is it because the Lord's attitude is too kind that you can treat him so casually?"

Rain Protector is the only woman among the four protectors of wind, rain, thunder, and lightning.

She was also saved by Zhong Yuan, and from then on, she followed him wholeheartedly.

At this moment, Protector Yu's face was filled with anger, and a hint of jealousy flickered in his eyes as he looked at Jiang Yunran.

Jiang Yunran is a woman of unparalleled beauty and elegance, like a rare orchid in a valley. She is a beauty rarely seen in the world.

Zhong Yuan stepped in to help Jiang Yunran.

This made the Rain Protector extremely jealous.

What made her even more jealous was...

Even with Jiang Yunran's cold attitude, Zhong Yuan remained unperturbed, as if he were accommodating her.

“Protector Yu, there’s no need for that,” Zhong Yuan said, waving his hand.

“But Master…” Protector Yu gritted her teeth slightly.

Jiang Yunran said, "I've said it before, I will repay you if I have the opportunity."

"Furthermore, I thank you for your willingness to lend a helping hand."

"But that doesn't mean I necessarily need your help."

Jiang Yunran was quite polite and spoke rather tactfully.

To put it bluntly, that means...

Zhongyuan and the others offered their help, which seemed a bit presumptuous of them.

"you……"

The rain protector's eyes blazed with fury.

Zhongyuan waved his hand, then shook his head and smiled slightly.

"It seems that Miss Jiang has some misunderstanding about me and about Taoism."

“Our Humanitarian Religion is not some heretical sect.”

"Presumably Miss Jiang knows about the ruler?"

Zhong Yuan's words made Jiang Yunran's eyes flash.

She had naturally heard of the deeds of the Lord of Man.

“You mean, your Humanitarian Religion…” Jiang Yunran said.

"Indeed, I uphold the will of the Lord and will carry forward the Lord's spirit and ideals."

"Therefore, I did have my own selfish reasons for helping Miss Jiang."

"I hope that after Miss Jiang, she can help spread the ideas of my Humanistic Sect."

“I would still lend a helping hand to anyone else this time.”

"After all, there are too few heroes like the Lord of Man in this world."

"I just hope to be one of them."

When Zhongyuan said this, his tone was sincere.

It can be said that anyone can be infected.

However, Jiang Yunran always felt that something was wrong.

Is this Zhongyuan the so-called successor of the ruler?

It seemed that he could still see some doubt in Jiang Yunran's eyes.

Zhong Yuan shook his head slightly and said, "Very well, since Miss Jiang still has some doubts, then we will not force her."

"Then I'll take my leave." Jiang Yunran didn't want to stay here for too long.

Her figure also vanished into thin air.

Watching Jiang Yunran's departing figure.

Protector Yu finally couldn't help but speak up: "Master, this woman is far too tactless."

Her tone was filled with indignation.

Zhong Yuan's expression remained unchanged, only his eyes became more profound.

"This woman is not simple."

"What does the Master mean?" asked the Wind Protector.

“She doesn’t seem to be affected by the rules of this world,” Zhong Yuan said.

"Could it be related to the treasure this woman obtained?" Lei, the protector on the other side, guessed.

Zhong Yuan shook his head slightly: "It shouldn't be that simple."

"Moreover, I have a gut feeling that this woman might be the key to this opportunity."

"An opportunity to resolve the situation of the forces trapped on Fallen God Island."

Zhongyuan's eyes were deep and profound.

Jiang Yunran was not suppressed by this world, which made him have some guesses.

His original intention was to establish a connection with Jiang Yunran.

If we can win her favor even a little, things will be much easier later on.

We can use Jiang Yunran to thoroughly uncover the secrets of Fallen God Island.

However, Jiang Yunran's attitude was somewhat unexpected by Zhong Yuan.

I felt completely indifferent to him, and was even quite wary of him.

"Then, Master, what should we do next?" Protector Lei asked from the side.

Zhong Yuan's eyes subtly shifted before he spoke.

"Wind Guardian, Rain Guardian, you two continue to keep a close watch on this woman's movements and report back as soon as possible."

"Remember, don't attract her attention."

"Thunder Protector, Lightning Protector, you two will accompany me to the Jing family and the Yao family."

Upon arriving at Fallen God Island, Zhong Yuan naturally obtained a great deal of information.

It was discovered that among the five major families on Fallen God Island, the Jing family and the Yao family did not seem to be particularly fond of the Jun family.

These two companies are the most suitable entry points. (End of Chapter)
