Well...
Jiang Fan quickly took it and swallowed it. His physical condition improved significantly and continued to recover.
"Do you know who I am?" Yan Tianyang spoke first, asking the question Jiang Fan most wanted to ask.
Jiang Fan shook his head.
Yan Tianyang: "Then let me introduce myself. I am Yan Tianyang, the commander of the Divine Wind Camp."
Yan Tianyang!!!
Jiang Fan was suddenly startled; he knew this name all too well.
It all started when the Crazy Old Man mistakenly thought he was sent by Yan Tianyang. It wasn't until Ye Qizhen appeared later that everyone realized it was all a misunderstanding.
Of course, that's not the point. The point is Yan Tianyang's identity.
He truly never expected that the name that had been constantly on his mind would be the commander of the Divine Wind Camp, the highest leader and core member of their Great Xia!
Why would someone as high-ranking as him personally deal with the beast tide at Fortress No. 31? Isn't that a huge waste of his talent? And now, such an important figure has even called him aside to talk to him; it all seems rather unbelievable.
Thinking of this, Jiang Fan suddenly had a flash of inspiration.
Could it be related to the Crazy Old Man? Is that why the commander of the Kamikaze Divine Wind Camp wants to speak with him alone?
Jiang Fan felt he should have guessed the truth. Although he didn't know who the Crazy Old Man was, based on his previous understanding and Yan Tianyang's attitude towards him, he could tell that the Crazy Old Man Crazy Old Man must have been a very remarkable person!
Just when Jiang Fan thought he had figured out the truth, Yan Tianyang's voice rang out again.
Do you know why I wanted to talk to you alone?
Jiang Fan tentatively asked, "Is it related to the Crazy Old Man?"
" Crazy Old Man?" Yan Tianyang was slightly taken aback, his gaze fixed on Jiang Fan.
Jiang Fan's heart skipped a beat. He remembered that Yan Tianyang had just addressed the Crazy Old Man with the respectful "you" and called him "Master Li," showing how much respect he had for him. Could it be that Yan Tianyang was unhappy because of how he addressed the Crazy Old Man?
"Hahaha!" Ye Qizhen suddenly burst into laughter, "There aren't many people in the world who dare to call him that."
Jiang Fan immediately replied, "Everyone in Ancheng who knows him calls him that. I've been influenced by it since I was a child, hearing the adults call him that, so I just started calling him that too."
Yes, that's it. It's not his fault. He's just a child. He'll call adults whatever they want. If you're unhappy, go ahead and slaughter everyone in Ancheng.
Yan Tianyang understood Jiang Fan's implication: this guy was clearly not a good person.
But it's not that good things are good; their Great Xia leader doesn't need upright gentlemen.
"I can understand if others call him that, since they don't know Master Li's identity and have no relation to Master Li. But as far as I know, you are Master Li's disciple, he is your master, is it appropriate for you to still call him Crazy Old Man?"
Jiang Fan shrugged. "He forced me to become his disciple; I didn't agree to it."
"Hahaha!" Yan Tianyang burst into laughter again.
Jiang Fan felt a chill run down his spine from the laughter, completely unable to understand what Yan Tianyang was thinking.
Suddenly, Yan Tianyang's laughter stopped abruptly, and his smile vanished, replaced by an extremely serious expression as he looked at Jiang Fan with great solemnity.
Do you think the title of commander-in-chief of the Divine Wind Camp is cool?
Jiang Fan raised an eyebrow. "Very handsome, no, extremely handsome."
"Would you like to experience it?" Yan Tianyang asked.
Jiang Fan was startled, then immediately replied, "No."
"Didn't you just say that the title of commander-in-chief of the Divine Wind Camp was cool?"
"He is handsome, but I don't have that kind of ambition."
"Oh? What do you want to do?"
"Cook."
"What?" This answer surprised Yan Tianyang greatly.
Jiang Fan said earnestly, "I just want to become a chef with superb culinary skills."
In fact, Jiang Fan wasn't exactly lying with this answer. Before his rebirth, he had a very poor foundation, with only 19N of Qi and blood, and had no chance to embark on the path of cultivation.
So at that time, his wish was to become a highly skilled chef, preferably a head chef at Five Star hotel.
Later, he went to university and, in order to earn living expenses, he went to a restaurant to learn cooking. Sure enough, he did have a talent for cooking. The boss even told him not to go to university and that he might as well stay and work for him.
Yan Tianyang stared at Jiang Fan for a long time, but couldn't find a trace of lying on the other's face.
Is this kid really planning to become a chef?
A rare Spirit Master becoming a cook? It's utterly absurd.
Are you content to be a nobody your whole life?
Jiang Fan retorted, "Isn't being a nobody good? It's certainly more carefree and easier than being the commander of the Divine Wind Camp, isn't it?"
This answer gave Yan Tianyang a sense of déjà vu, as if he were in another world. His memory flashed back: a spirited young man, a blade of grass dangling from his mouth, sprawled on the artificial turf with his legs crossed, when a short, middle-aged man approached him and coaxed him in the tone of a human trafficker, "Want to play the role of commander of the Divine Wind Camp?"
The boy, with a disdainful look on his face and a blade of grass in his mouth, said, "You should play by yourself, I have no such ambition."
"Oh? So what are your ambitions?"
"Sunbathe, sleep."
It took Yan Tianyang a long time to come back to his senses. His slightly unfocused gaze refocused and settled on Jiang Fan.
In an instant, it was as if the boy lying on the ground sleeping and sunbathing overlapped with the boy in front of me who had not yet completely lost his childishness.
Jiang Fan was puzzled by the strange look in Yan Tianyang's eyes, but since the other party didn't say anything, he couldn't say anything either, and could only wait for Yan Tianyang to speak first.
A few seconds later, Yan Tianyang finally spoke.
I hope that will always be your answer.
"Hmm? What do you mean?" Jiang Fan frowned, waiting for Yan Tianyang to continue, but Yan Tianyang did not say anything more.
"My identity makes it inconvenient for me to leave the Divine Wind Camp headquarters for too long. If the enemy finds out, they might try something funny. Now that things here are resolved, I'll be leaving."
After saying that, Yan Tianyang walked towards the Crazy Old Man.
Jiang Fan watched Yan Tianyang's retreating figure, carefully considering what he had just said.
Enemies? Enemies from where? Do you mean demonic beasts? Are demonic beasts that intelligent? Would they attack Great Xia while Yan Tianyang is away?
With no one to answer his questions, Jiang Fan didn't bother to think about it anymore.
It's not that he's too carefree to think about it; rather, with his current strength, he's simply not qualified to consider this issue. For him, the most important thing right now is how to improve his strength so that he can protect himself and his family.
After saying goodbye to the Crazy Old Man, Yan Tianyang left.
"Woof woof woof!" Big Black ran to Jiang Fan's side, circling around him, its eyes full of worry.
Jiang Fan was surprised to see the Big Black creature appear out of nowhere.
It's unbelievable that Big Black survived such a ferocious beast tide.
She crouched down and stroked the dog's head. "I'm fine, don't worry."
After rubbing its head against Jiang Fan, Big Black barked twice at the corpse of the Nine-Mouthed Man-Eating Mosquito, ran over, and angrily began to bite at it, clearly seeking revenge for Jiang Fan.
Jiang Fan was both amused and exasperated by the scene, but then, an unexpected event occurred!
