Cannon-Fodder Heiress Turns the Tables by Fortune-Telling-Chapter 104 - 103 Big resentment
Chapter 104: 103 Big resentment
Xie Xuzhi naturally saw Yun Ran’s glee, but he didn’t mind it, as he hadn’t brought Yun Ran here just for her to have a look around.
"I know you Xuanmen people love feng shui treasures. You’ve been seriously injured this time, and apart from material rewards, you can also recuperate here."
Yun Ran’s eyes immediately lit up. Such a pie-in-the-sky opportunity had fallen into her lap, Golden Thigh truly lived up to his reputation, hahaha\(^o^)/~.
"Stop the car, stop the car!" ƒrēenovelkiss.com
Yun Ran couldn’t wait any longer and didn’t care that they were still at the foot of the mountain; she immediately told the driver to stop.
The driver didn’t stop right away until he heard Xie Xuzhi’s voice; only then did he pull over.
But in the blink of an eye, Yun Ran’s figure had disappeared; to the uninformed, one might think she was some ghost wildly dashing about in the mountain stream.
Xie Xuzhi was not interested in seeing what exactly Yun Ran was up to; after returning to the Imperial Cauldron Club, he got busy with his own affairs.
Yun Ran found a suitable spot, sat down with crossed legs, and began to meditate.
[Host, look around you!]
Ginsengfruit rarely interrupted Yun Ran’s meditation unless something very special happened.
Yun Ran opened her eyes, and her expression was full of astonishment.
Around her, many Merit Golden Lights emerged continuously, but weirdly, these lights disappeared as soon as they neared her.
It was as if someone was stealing them by her side.
Without Merit to protect her, bad luck came her way one after another. Though it wouldn’t kill her, these events were really annoying.
Now that she was finally about to receive some Merit, it was being stolen. This was like digging the ground on Tai Sui’s head.
Yun Ran could no longer focus on meditating and promptly began to make calculations.
Not knowing what she calculated, Yun Ran suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, worse than when she was struck by the Heavenly Thunder.
Ginsengfruit immediately let out a cry of alarm: [Host, what’s happening to you!!!]
Yun Ran wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, but her heart felt ice-cold.
"I won’t get these Merits."
Ginsengfruit could tell from Yun Ran’s tone that there was something wrong with these Merits.
Sure enough, Yun Ran continued: "I opened the Ghost Gate and took care of those greatly harmful ghosts, saving countless lives.
I should have received a lot of Merit rewards, but because I used Merit to send those ’fellow travelers’ into reincarnation, and their sins were too deep.
Plus, as I am someone with the life chart of the Heavenly Abandoned, the rules judged that I have merits, but they balance out with my sins, so these Merits were dispersed back out, compensating those who suffered, letting them have a better life in their next reincarnation."
For the first time, Yun Ran felt like someone with big resentment, it wasn’t her who did evil, but she was the one to bear the consequences.
Although these Merits could help the victims, she wasn’t petty enough to make a big deal out of it, but it really troubled her heart.
Ginsengfruit was also somewhat exploded; if these Merits hadn’t been forcibly dispersed, it could have received a lot by now.
Now, both of them had recorded a favor and grudge against Rong Gu.
[When we catch Rong Gu, we must deal with her severely!]
Yun Ran clutched at her hot, painful chest and her chilly heart, no longer in the mood to meditate.
"Hu~"
A nearly inaudible sigh reached Yun Ran’s ears, making her whole soul tremble for a moment.
"Live Dragon Breath!"
Yun Ran’s face was filled with shock; this place was supposed to be a Dead Dragon Vein, which she had investigated before.
Her gaze immediately turned towards the location of the Dragon Heart Pond, and some previously overlooked details suddenly surfaced in her mind.
Back when she was at the Dragon Heart Pond, she had felt a faint breath, so faint that she thought it was just her illusion.
But now, Yun Ran knew it was not an illusion, it was real.
She stood up and walked towards the direction of the Dragon Heart Pond. She didn’t know what she wanted to do, but she couldn’t help but walk over to take a look.
Now in this ecological area, there’s surveillance everywhere, and Yun Ran’s movements were fully captured by the cameras without any blind spots.
But since Yun Ran had come out of Xie Xuzhi’s car, the people watching the monitors did not treat her as a suspect.
However, when they saw her walking towards the Dragon Heart Pond, it still caused some commotion.
"This young girl looks young, but I didn’t expect her to move so quickly. I reckon even our speeds couldn’t match hers."
"Could it be that she was the one who broke in successfully last time?"
"That shouldn’t be possible, right? She only looks so young."
...
Last time, all of them had to go through extra training; it was exhausting, and they were secretly competing against each other, vowing that if they encountered the person who caused them trouble, they would give him a ’warm welcome’.
But now seeing such a young girl, the people on surveillance duty were a bit unsettled.
Although they didn’t want to believe it, looking at Yun Ran’s agile movements and her ease, the people in the surveillance room fell silent.
The path Yun Ran was walking was one they had walked before, so they knew even better what her ease implied.
Until they saw Yun Ran jump into the Dragon Heart Pond without any hesitation.
Everyone in the surveillance room couldn’t sit still anymore.
"F*ck, she actually dared to jump into the Dragon Heart Pond!"
"Quick, report the news up the chain, the rest of you, follow me!"
As the captain’s voice fell, the rest of the people immediately took out their equipment, clearly ready to go for a rescue.
The last person who jumped into the Dragon Heart Pond was never found, not even their bones.
Each person carried a bundle of specially made rope and diving gear, all with serious expressions on their faces.
But before they could set out, they received an order from the Imperial Cauldron Club: no need to interfere.
This left everyone bewildered, but they were all obedient to orders, even if the command was unreasonable, they could only comply.
"What on earth is going on? Is that young girl doing some kind of extreme challenge?"
"I don’t know. Let’s wait and see. We can’t question the orders from above."
"Alright, let’s just wait and see."
...
The worried Yun Ran, now with a Waterproof Talisman attached to herself, also took out a Merfolk Pearl that she had once found by chance.
This made her less uncomfortable in the water, surrounded by a dozen Little Papermen clearing the way for her.
This pond was much deeper than she had imagined; if it were not for her Waterproof Talisman and Merfolk Pearl, it would have been quite difficult by now.
The deeper she sank, the colder the water became, but to one’s surprise, the wounds on Yun Ran’s body were gradually healing.
