Cannon-Fodder Heiress Turns the Tables by Fortune-Telling-Chapter 732 - 730: Acting Like a Petty Person

Although it seemed absurd, both the Dragon Spirit and Xuan Chu felt that if this was the case, it actually made sense.

Back then, those people had long discovered the secret of the Five Emperors Mountain and had coveted the Heavenly Book for a long time.

But neither the Dragon Vein nor the Heavenly Book were easy to deal with. They protected each other, and their combined effect was evidently greater than two.

So, after hundreds of years, those people could only watch with wide eyes.

They could only use various methods to expedite the exhaustion of the Dead Dragon Vein.

And Rong Gu had obtained the part of the inheritance about the Forbidden Book, and perhaps more, which led her here.

Relying on her own talent and skills acquired from years of exploration.

She actually found a way to extract a dragon spirit that was already on the brink of death.

At that time, the power of the Azure Dragon was probably not even one-tenth of its original strength. 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎

Therefore, Rong Gu could easily seal and subdue the Azure Dragon for her own use.

Perhaps it was precisely because the Azure Dragon’s power was greatly reduced that the Dragon Spirit and Yun Ran could use the Coiling Dragon Formation to easily slay and devour a real Dragon Spirit.

Well, now everything really makes sense.

As the Dragon Spirit that had devoured the Azure Dragon, he couldn’t help but gulp, and it wasn’t his fault; it was just a series of happy accidents.

Wanqi Yu’s gaze, however, fell on the Ginsengfruit.

He believed that some people were truly gifted, geniuses even at a young age.

But why, when everyone was tied up in a tangled knot of worries, could the Ginsengfruit so easily hit the nail on the head?

As if these supposedly top-secret affairs were mere commonsense to the Ginsengfruit.

"Why do you know these things?"

If, today, he were just an irrelevant member of the team, he wouldn’t say anything to avoid being accused of sowing discord.

But Yun Ran was his sworn sister, someone he felt deeply indebted to.

Previously, both he and his foster father couldn’t easily make an appearance, and many matters were out of their hands.

Now it was different; he had to be the disliked guy, taking the blame, so Yun Ran could stay pure and clean.

The Ginsengfruit couldn’t really explain; he just felt he should know these things.

Like some knowledge that was stored in the corner of his mind, unused until it suddenly pops out when needed.

The Ginsengfruit hesitated for a bit, about to speak the truth, when Yun Ran interrupted him.

"What’s there to ask, as someone from the Xuan Sect, we’re used to all kinds of bizarre things. It’s just a matter of logical deduction, isn’t it? And wouldn’t it need to be carefully verified afterward?"

Yun Ran knew why Wanqi Yu was suspicious, but she was the protective type.

Even if the Ginsengfruit had issues, it was her concern. She would never publicly punish the Ginsengfruit.

"Alright, the clues we’ve discovered are enough to give us headaches for quite some time. It’s getting late, and since we’re here, wouldn’t it be a waste not to climb to the top and watch the sunrise?"

After all, from Yun Ran’s perspective, if they didn’t see the sunrise today, wouldn’t the money spent on tickets be wasted?

The Dragon Spirit and Xuan Chu knew how much Yun Ran doted on the Ginsengfruit, so calling it trust was a bit shallow.

Just look at the treasures Yun Ran gave the Ginsengfruit and the power entrusted into his hands.

Xuan Chu vaguely felt that Yun Ran was grooming the Ginsengfruit to be the successor of Qingfeng Temple, lifting him with great effort.

The Dragon Spirit looked at Wanqi Yu, who had played the blame game, and patted his shoulder. He understood Wanqi Yu’s intention, but both of their hearts were biased.

"Doubt the Ginsengfruit less in the future."

Wanqi Yu wasn’t someone with a fragile heart, so he nodded, "Thanks for the reminder."

The group soon returned from the small trail to the previous climbing staircase.

Yun Ran checked her watch, estimating that the sun would rise in three hours, and they had only climbed a third of the way.

In the time remaining, they had to speed up.

This news might be a nightmare for others, even a merciless thing.

But for those like Xuan Chu, with inherently robust physiques, doubling the speed was no difficulty at all.

In the time they had left, they didn’t need to investigate anything further and wouldn’t be swept along by crowds rushing up.

In this manner, it seemed they were truly here to hike.

Along the way, they encountered all sorts of people, couples, families, and friends, each with animated expressions on their faces.

Halfway up, there was a large open-air platform with not only a hotel but many leisure areas.

Yun Ran even saw fellow fortune-tellers, with Concubine Locks and Red Silk Wishes hanging all over the iron chains around the platform.

Seeing these things, Yun Ran felt a sense of déjà vu lifting, finally clearing the fog.

The various signs here were almost the same as when she followed her senior uncle on a fortune-telling training trip long ago.

The reason she ended up in this world was during that trip, replacing her uncle at a station and unintentionally falling off a cliff amid the excitement.

Back then, while falling, Yun Ran didn’t think she would die, though she would surely get hurt, so she wasn’t panicked.

Little did she expect to be pulled into this world by the Ginsengfruit’s magic artifact.

Yun Ran turned her head to Ginsengfruit: "Why did you think I’d die then?"

Ginsengfruit looked down, circled his fingers nervously. Could he say, at the time, the data showed the host had no self-rescue actions?

In that manner, it seemed like she calmly accepted her impending death.

He was just a system relying on data analysis. Based on the data judgment that the host was doomed, that’s why he intervened.

Sigh, if only he had known earlier that the host wouldn’t die, he wouldn’t have rushed to drag her into this world.

"Host, I really didn’t mean it. You were flat out like a pancake, unlike others panicking when they fall off a cliff..."

Yun Ran sighed, holding her forehead. This blunder was truly unusual.

She watched as the Dragon Spirit dragged Xuan Chu to buy Red Silk Wishes from the Ruyi Temple ahead.

Wanqi Yu also went to queue up to buy food and drinks, while Yun Ran took out the magic artifact Ginsengfruit had possessed.

The magic artifact, which had long lost its luster, suddenly regained a bit of brightness.

"Keep it well."

Ginsengfruit was puzzled but obediently put away the magic artifact.

"Host, no matter what happens, I’m always on your side."

"That’s a must. If you dare backstab me, I’ll take back the Heavenly Thunder Pearl!"

Thinking that if he lost his body, he’d lose ninety-nine percent of his fun, Ginsengfruit immediately shivered in fear.
