Cannon-Fodder Heiress Turns the Tables by Fortune-Telling-Chapter 720: Don’t Brag, or You’ll Get Struck by Lightning!
After the Nine-petaled Lotus in Dragon Spirit’s eyes dissipated, Yun Ran walked around him with great interest.
"Tsk tsk tsk, who would have thought you’d have such luck. Not bad, not bad, your value has doubled."
The little master uncle reached out and patted Yun Ran’s head again: "Stop making stuff up~"
Although this behavior seemed reproachful, the indulgence in the tone was unmistakable.
Being knocked on, Yun Ran felt quite wronged, pursed her lips, and said: "I didn’t, I was just expressing my feelings."
In front of the little master uncle, Dragon Spirit was particularly modest and behaved, watching Yun Ran get scolded.
He hurriedly spoke up, "I could advance thanks entirely to the little master uncle’s nurturing."
The sincerity in his tone gave Yun Ran the feeling of having eaten a poisonous mushroom; was she hallucinating?
When did that guy who always looked down on everyone actually say something so humble?
Yun Ran’s shocked eyes were just short of directly asking: Did you take the wrong medicine?
Dragon Spirit: ...
This is annoying, he simply wanted to make a good impression in front of the little master uncle. Did he have to be exposed?
The little master uncle couldn’t be bothered with how Yun Ran and Dragon Spirit got along; after all, it’s their business.
"Alright, if you two are done, go do what you need to do!"
With that, the little master uncle impatiently sent the two of them off as he was busy and didn’t have time to watch them argue.
In just the blink of an eye, the little master uncle was nowhere to be seen.
Dragon Spirit immediately reverted to that slightly arrogant and cheeky demeanor, nudging Yun Ran with his shoulder.
"The little master uncle asked me to look after you for a while, what did you do?"
Seeing Dragon Spirit’s familiar behavior, Yun Ran finally felt comfortable.
This is more like it; Dragon Spirit’s earlier pretentious behavior was enough to give goosebumps.
However, even though she found him agreeable, Yun Ran still responded with annoyance. The way he asked sounded like she was a troublemaker.
"What do you think I could have done!" 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦
Dragon Spirit’s expression instantly became exaggerated: "I should’ve known, breaking the sky is practically routine for you..."
Suddenly, Dragon Spirit’s expression stiffened, followed by a look of surrender.
"No, you couldn’t really have broken the sky! Can’t you just temper that temper of yours a bit?"
After complaining in a low voice, a hint of pride quickly appeared on Dragon Spirit’s face.
"Luckily, the little master uncle recognized my extraordinariness at a glance, granting me a tremendous opportunity to advance.
I’m not someone who forgets kindness. Now that I’m so formidable, I’ll certainly protect you properly. Even if the sky falls, I’ll hold it up..."
Yun Ran looked speechlessly at Dragon Spirit who blew his own horn: "Stop bragging, or you’ll get struck by lightning!"
Feeling questioned, Dragon Spirit was immediately displeased, but recalled something and deliberately lowered his voice so much that Yun Ran could barely hear him.
"I’ve advanced and learned some of the Dragon Clan’s heritage. I know where the Heavenly Book is!"
The mention of the "Heavenly Book" made Yun Ran, who was initially nonchalant, suddenly raise her eyes.
"What did you say!!!"
Perhaps due to excessive excitement, Yun Ran’s voice even broke.
Dragon Spirit was so frightened that he quickly reached out to cover Yun Ran’s mouth, knowing full well that the resting room was very safe at the moment.
But he still couldn’t help but glance around cautiously like a thief.
After confirming no issues, Dragon Spirit gave Yun Ran a fierce glare, patted his chest, and took a while to recover.
"I say, my dear, this is a colossal secret. If it weren’t for the little master uncle treating me so well, would I tell you? And you, speaking so loudly, almost scared me to death!"
After Yun Ran took a while to process what Dragon Spirit had said.
Suddenly, she burst into laughter.
Watching Yun Ran laugh louder and louder, until she bent over laughing, Dragon Spirit was baffled.
Could Yun Ran really be sick? Even after being scolded, she laughed so heartily.
Dragon Spirit reached out to poke Yun Ran’s arm: "Stop laughing, it’s creepy, and I’m scared!"
After a long while, Yun Ran finished laughing, sat down on the sofa, but her eyes were looking out the window, with a hint of challenge.
In her tone, there was even a deeper meaning: "When the road ends, there’s another village."
She had thought there was no good way due to her Life Chart being scorned by Heavenly Dao.
Who would’ve thought that Dragon Spirit’s advancement could bring news of such a great opportunity?
At this moment, Yun Ran empathized with those big villains in TV shows who laughed triumphantly after receiving good news.
Knowing about the Heavenly Book, regardless of anything, Yun Ran was determined to get her hands on it.
"Where is the Heavenly Book?"
Seeing Yun Ran return to normal, Dragon Spirit finally sighed in relief. He hadn’t expected Yun Ran, who usually seemed steady, to become so ’crazy’ over just the news of the Heavenly Book.
Ah, apparently, Yun Ran is still too young and hasn’t seen enough good things.
He knew of so many treasures that if he revealed them all, Yun Ran would go even crazier with joy.
"In a Secret Valley Forbidden Land. I saw in the fragmented inheritance that this Heavenly Book is a treasure collectively guarded by five Dragon Veins."
Indeed, it’s a treasure, guarded by five Dragon Veins. Just thinking about it makes one realize how difficult it will be to acquire this Heavenly Book.
Yun Ran had been in this small world for so long and had only encountered three Dragon Spirits in total.
The one at Huangding Villa was on its last breath, basically beyond saving.
The Azure Dragon of Rong Gu was killed by the Coiling Dragon Formation she set up with Dragon Spirit’s blood.
The last one was the Dragon Spirit who had seized the identity of the Gu God Hall’s master right in front of her.
Just these three were already tough to deal with on their own.
To get the Heavenly Book, one would have to simultaneously deal with the Dragon Spirits born from five Dragon Veins. That certainly wouldn’t be easy.
Dragon Spirit watched as Yun Ran fell into contemplation, saying nothing more. After all, he had told all the secrets he knew.
What comes next is Yun Ran’s decision.
Besides, with the little master uncle around, Dragon Spirit felt that snatching the Heavenly Book from the other five Dragon Spirits was no big deal.
As for whether he felt a bit guilty or like a traitor.
Sorry, Dragon Spirit felt nothing of the sort.
Though he had now advanced to the level of a Dragon King, he hadn’t forgotten his roots as Jiao Long.
Those Dragon Spirits born from Dragon Veins looked down on him, and he wasn’t keen on being grouped with them either.
If Yun Ran could take down one or two more for him to devour, that’d be even better.
It’s entirely a mutually beneficial arrangement.
