Wu Shattered Star River

#1571 - Chapter 1571 Che Jiaren

To conceal Jiang Han's identity, Immortal Lord Wuyun fabricated a lie, claiming Jiang Han was her wife's nephew.

Her wife also had the surname Jiang, and she had an older brother, who died in battle over a decade ago. Jiang Han's identity was that of her older brother's child who had been living in obscurity…

Of course, this identity could only be spread through rumors, which would actually make it more believable.

Immortal Lord Wuyun didn't allow Jiang Han to live in his courtyard, but he secretly bought the two courtyards near Jiang Han's, arranging for Shadow Guards to live there and protect him in secret.

That night, Jiang Han was also brought into the Wu Mansion to meet Immortal Lord Wuyun's family.

Immortal Lord Wuyun was very devoted, having only one wife, who wasn't from a prominent family and only had one older brother who had died. Furthermore, Immortal Lord Wuyun and his wife only had one daughter, named Wu Qi.

Jiang Han was led into a small hall in the backyard, where Wuyun and his wife and daughter had arrived early to greet him.

Upon seeing Jiang Han, Immortal Lord Wuyun was about to kneel on one knee again, but Jiang Han quickly dodged and supported Immortal Lord Wuyun.

"This humble one, Jiang Yunfang, greets the young master!"

Immortal Lord Wuyun's wife, although not from a wealthy family, was very well-mannered, giving a low curtsy.

Her daughter was not very old, in her early twenties, and was very beautiful and intelligent. She wore a pink dress and had many precious jewels and accessories on her body.

She curiously sized up Jiang Han, perhaps because she was the little princess of the Wushan Immortal Kingdom and had been spoiled by countless people since childhood, she had some pride in her bones.

She didn't bow to Jiang Han, but casually cupped her hands and said, "Wu Qi greets Little… Sir!"

Immortal Lord Wuyun's eyes turned cold, and he reprimanded, "Wu Qi, don't be rude! What little sir? Quickly call him Young Master and kneel down to pay your respects!"

Immortal Lord Wuyun's words were harsh, and Wu Qi was frightened. A trace of panic appeared in her eyes, covered with a layer of mist, and she almost cried. Her legs went weak, and she was about to kneel.

A strong hand reached out and supported her arm. Jiang Han looked at Immortal Lord Wuyun with a wry smile and said, "Brother Wuyun, what are you doing? Don't scare the child. We're all family, why so much formality? If you continue like this, I won't come to your house in the future."

Immortal Lord Wuyun cupped his hands towards Jiang Han and said apologetically, "Wuyun is undisciplined, making the Young Master laugh."

Jiang Han smiled and looked at Wu Qi and said, "Sister Wu Qi, don't listen to your father. In the future, you don't have to call me Young Master, just call me Brother Jiang Han."

"Brother?"

Wu Qi was stunned, glanced at Immortal Lord Wuyun, and said, "If I call you brother, and you call my father brother, what should I call my father?"

"Uh…"

Jiang Han was stunned. This was indeed a bit confusing. He saw Immortal Lord Wuyun's face turn stern again, about to scold her, and waved his hand, saying, "Don't mind your father, we'll talk about us!"

"Hehe!"

Wu Qi burst into laughter, glanced at Immortal Lord Wuyun provocatively, and said, "Father, did you hear that? It's not me calling him randomly, it's Brother Jiang Han who told me to call him that."

Immortal Lord Wuyun probably doted on this little darling, glared at Wu Qi, but didn't say anything.

He invited Jiang Han to sit in the main seat, and he accompanied him on the side, with Jiang Yunfang and Wu Qi sitting on either side.

After taking their seats, Immortal Lord Wuyun said to Jiang Yunfang and Wu Qi with utmost seriousness, "You must remember that the Young Master's identity must never be leaked. From now on, the Young Master is Yunfang's older brother's son who has been living in obscurity. Wu Qi, to outsiders, the Young Master is your cousin."

"If the Young Master's identity is leaked, not only will he be captured immediately, but our whole family will be killed, understand?"

Jiang Yunfang nodded with a smile, and Wu Qi also knew the seriousness of the matter. She nodded and said, "Father, I remember. From now on, Brother Jiang Han is my cousin."

"Young Master, my whole family toasts you!"

Immortal Lord Wuyun stood up and raised his glass, and Jiang Yunfang and Wu Qi followed suit. Jiang Han quickly got up and drank a cup with the three of them.

After drinking a few cups, the atmosphere became a bit dull. Immortal Lord Wuyun had a rigid personality and was not the kind of person who was good at socializing, so he didn't know how to liven up the atmosphere.

Jiang Yunfang, as the mistress of the house, also didn't find it convenient to say much. In the end, it was the quirky Wu Qi who chatted with Jiang Han, making the atmosphere less awkward.

When they had drunk almost enough, Immortal Lord Wuyun asked his wife and daughter to withdraw first. Then, with a wave of his hand, a giant covered in iron armor walked in from outside.

This giant was a real giant, more than ten feet tall, probably from a special race.

He was also carrying a middle-aged man with fiery red hair. The black-armored giant threw the middle-aged man on the ground, cupped his hands towards Immortal Lord Wuyun, and retreated.

Jiang Han glanced at the middle-aged man with fiery red hair, feeling very unfamiliar. He looked at Immortal Lord Wuyun suspiciously.

The latter explained, "Young Master, this man is called An Junji, and he is the Deputy Commander of the Patrol Division of the Tianhu Immortal Kingdom."

"He came on the orders of Che Xiyue, originally to pick up Che Xiyue's son, Che Yongxuan. Later, after learning of Che Yongxuan's death, he has been chasing and killing your friends."

"He recently came to the Immortal Kingdom, and the reason why the Shi family is chasing you is largely because of him."

"Che Yongxuan?"

Jiang Han suddenly understood. Che Yongxuan's father seemed to be the Dragon Suppressing Envoy of a Third-Rank Immortal Kingdom? No wonder Wu Ji and the others would take the risk of entering the Wushan Immortal Kingdom, it turned out they were being chased by this person.

"Young Master?"

An Junji's expression changed, looking at Jiang Han suspiciously. This title was not to be called randomly, did Jiang Han have such a big background?

Immortal Lord Wuyun said, "Young Master, how should we deal with this person?"

Jiang Han frowned. With Immortal Lord Wuyun's personality, if this person was insignificant, he would have slapped him to death long ago.

It seemed that Che Xiyue's combat power was very strong? Immortal Lord Wuyun was somewhat afraid? So he didn't dare to kill An Junji?

He transmitted his voice and asked, "Brother Wuyun, is Che Xiyue very strong? Does he have great power?"

"Strong is not strong, and power is just so-so."

Immortal Lord Wuyun didn't hide it from Jiang Han either, explaining through voice transmission, "However, Che Xiyue has a daughter named Che Jiaren, who is extremely talented and has a captivating beauty. She has joined a very strong sect, the Autumn Water Sect, and has entered the Heavenly Maiden List."

"My adoptive father is not here now. If we form a deadly feud with Che Xiyue, I'm afraid it will only add a lot of trouble and variables…"

"Che Jiaren!"

Jiang Han muttered the name. He nodded slightly and transmitted his voice, "Then let's not kill this person. Erase his memory and expel him from the country. It's better to have less trouble than more."

"Okay!"

Immortal Lord Wuyun had this intention, otherwise he wouldn't have brought this person to see Jiang Han.

He himself was not afraid of trouble, but he was afraid that Jiang Han would be in danger. If he had a deadly fight with Che Xiyue, when Che Jiaren came back, it would be very troublesome.

The Autumn Water Sect was a top-notch sect in the Heavenly Court, and the identity of an Autumn Water Sect disciple was troublesome enough.

In addition, Che Jiaren was a beauty on the Heavenly Maiden List, and she had many top wealthy young masters pursuing her.

If he brought a group of foreign aid over, Immortal Lord Wuyun's adoptive father was currently in the Ancient God Star Territory, and it would be difficult for Immortal Lord Wuyun alone to contend with them.

If something happened to Jiang Han, how would he explain it to his adoptive father and Jiang Henshui?
