Di Jiang looked at Ye Fan who was kneeling on the ground, then glanced at the other veterans in the conference room, and chuckled.
"You all heard it, right? Is there anything else you want to say now?"
Other veterans who still wanted to argue were speechless by Ye Fan's oath. They did not expect Ye Fan to be so stubborn.
"Okay, then I'll just wait for little friend Ye Fan to bring the black fort in five days."
All the veterans threw up their sleeves and left, and the meeting ended unhappy because of Ye Fan's oath.
Although the banquet ended unhappily, it was only for those old ministers. Di Jiang was very happy in his heart. Recently, he had seen too many ugly faces of those old ministers, and he felt happy when he saw how miserable they were.
"Ye Fan, how can you be sure that the old man will be able to decipher the runes around the black fort within five days?"
Ye Fan was stunned for a moment when he heard this.
"Isn't that what you said, sir? I just signaled the word "five" to you, and you nodded."
Hearing Ye Fan's words, Di Jiang looked embarrassed.
"Are you talking about the palm you extended just now?"
Ye Fan nodded.
Di Jiang's face became even more embarrassed.
"I just thought you were telling me to stop talking while you deal with them."
Ye Fan held his forehead silently. He did not expect that there would be such a big misunderstanding between the two.
"There is no other way. Now that the words have been left here, I can only hope that the old man will act quickly."
Di Jiang immediately took out the sound transmission stone and told the old man what had just happened.
Sure enough, as soon as Dijiang finished explaining, the old man's roar came from the sound transmission stone.
"Before you two make any decision, could you let me know first?"
The old man shouted loudly.
"I told you a long time ago that these runes are difficult to crack and will take time, but you still made such an oath! Are you afraid that the old man will be too busy?"
"Old man, don't be angry, we didn't do this on purpose."
Di Jiang and Ye Fan quickly apologized and said with a smile, they also knew that this time they really troubled the old man.
"It's just this once. If this happens again next time, I will resign and go on strike!"
Although the old man was furious, he still agreed to the matter.
After a while, there was no sound from the old man's side. Lijiang was about to cut off the communication when he heard another roar from the old man.
"Why don't you come over and help the old man? Don't you want the old man to work alone? That's a great idea!"
Just say it, the old man cut off the communication.
Di Jiang and Ye Fan looked at each other, smiled bitterly, and hurried towards the old man.
When he arrived, the old man was cursing, but his work was not delayed at all.
The floor was covered with paper, all of which were runes drawn by the old man. Even Di Jiang had to be careful. Although he was powerful, he knew nothing about runes. He was afraid that he would touch any rune and cause trouble to the old man.
Although Ye Fan is not proficient in runes, he still has some foundation and can help the old man with some preliminary work.
Compared to Ye Fan's help, Di Jiang could only carefully hide and watch.
This made the old man feel angry when he saw Di Jiang, and finally drove Di Jiang away with curses.
Although Di Jiang felt aggrieved, he knew that staying here would not help him, so he might as well go to the pavilion to stabilize the situation, so he turned around and left.
When he was helping the old man, Ye Fan discovered that the old man was different.
