Cannon-Fodder Heiress Turns the Tables by Fortune-Telling-Chapter 1001 - 997

Seeing the tragic situation before him, Xuan Chu’s eyes finally showed a different emotion apart from regarding Yun Ran and his group.

Xuan Chu imitated the actions of those people before him, reaching out to uncover the black cloth on the mirror.

A complete copper mirror appeared before Xuan Chu.

At first glance, this copper mirror seemed no different from any ordinary one, clearly reflecting his image.

If Xuan Chu hadn’t personally witnessed the souls being swallowed by this mirror, he might have mistaken it for an ordinary mirror too.

Just as Xuan Chu reached out, intending to touch the mirror to uncover its secrets.

The previously calm mirror surface suddenly formed a whirlpool in the middle, a strong suction pulling towards Xuan Chu.

Xuan Chu’s body swayed but quickly stabilized; however, the talisman paper on him was sucked into the copper mirror quite a bit.

Swiftly, Xuan Chu’s hand directly placed the black cloth back onto the copper mirror.

Everything instantly reverted to its original calm, as if everything before was merely Xuan Chu’s delusion.

Xuan Chu looked fixedly at the copper mirror, earlier he distinctly felt his own divine soul tremble.

If it weren’t for those talisman papers on him, perhaps he would have been severely injured by this strange suction.

To avoid drawing attention, Xuan Chu didn’t touch the copper mirror further, instead turned and left.

Xuan Chu quickly returned to the Xuan Master Association here; fortunately, they had prepared an identity for him beforehand.

Later, he could appear openly before those in the General Association.

Dragon Spirit was slightly curious seeing Xuan Chu return so quickly.

"Have you found clues so soon?"

Xuan Chu nodded, then recounted what he had discovered earlier.

"I always feel there’s something strange and dangerous about that mirror."

Dragon Spirit inherently had a fearless nature, how could he be scared of a little copper mirror.

After looking Xuan Chu up and down with a clearly disdainful tone, said: "Honestly, your courage is a bit small.

In the future, refrain from using your Heavenly Dao Village senior brother status to boast; you’re not capable of bearing the burden!"

If not for knowing Dragon Spirit’s nature and his sharp tongue, Xuan Chu might have taught him a lesson by now!

"Yun Ran mentioned previously, the Xuan Masters in this world treat spirit monsters and evils extremely harshly, who knows what detection methods they have.

You’re simply not human, remember to be very cautious, don’t fall for their tricks!"

Dragon Spirit immediately found this offensive, how could he be considered the same level as common spirit monsters and evils?

He was a natural-born Dragon Spirit, living for thousands of years, bestowed by his master with some magic inheritance.

Not to mention, because of Yun Ran, he also received quite a bit of Merit Golden Light.

Nowadays, he was no longer the Jiao Long filled with Demon Qi roaming the seas!

"Enough chatter, you’d better rest early, or else you’ll work yourself to death with that flesh-and-blood body!"

The friendship boat between Xuan Chu and Dragon Spirit quickly capsized due to the offensive words from the other.

By dusk, the people from the General Association arrived.

Dragon Spirit stood low-key in a corner from where he could observe the entire courtyard, quietly watching the association members flatter and curry favor with those from the General Association.

The leading person’s eyes casually scanned the sycophants before him.

"Enough of the nonsense, is the task completed?"

Upon hearing this, the association president felt overwhelmed with anxiety, especially with the person’s difficult demeanor.

But outranking him dictated his stance; while internally cursing, outwardly he maintained a pleasing smile.

"This way, please, sir."

Once the General Association members moved forward, the president wiped the sweat from his brow.

He hoped the Two-headed Resentful Spirit Snake would meet their expectations.

They soon reached the dungeon.

This place had been off-limits earlier, not even permitted entry to their own members without due cause.

Dragon Spirit followed along, gaining insight into the true appearance of the dungeon.

Xuan Chu was not far behind, perhaps due to the presence of the General Association members.

The local association members hadn’t considered their own regulations prohibiting Xuan Chu and Dragon Spirit, outsiders, from entering.

The Two-headed Resentful Spirit Snake had already awakened but was trapped within an array, unable to escape, yet surrounded by dense death energy.

The president bowed towards the General Association representatives: "Sir, this is the Two-headed Resentful Spirit Snake we captured earlier, extraordinarily powerful!"

The General Association members could barely restrain rolling their eyes at the introducing president.

The thick death energy surrounding them was too obvious for even blind eyes, yet he felt the need to spell out such obvious matters!

"Hmm, not bad, but I recall the quantity assigned by the General Association doesn’t match what we see here!"

Dragon Spirit glanced towards the dungeon, spotting a small Rabbit Demon—or rather, it should have just gained spiritual wisdom.

The little rabbit clearly had just developed spiritual wisdom, looking utterly clueless.

Another corner showed a pot of flowers that had gained spiritual wisdom, looking wilted near death.

Dragon Spirit’s lips curled in a slight smirk, evidently finding the scene amusing.

If these rabbits and flowers were categorized as spirit monsters and evils, then nearly all non-human clans would be extinct in this world.

The compassion in Xuan Chu’s eyes was more evident; previously, he believed under the Heavenly Dao all beings were equal, and their fate should be left in nature’s hands.

No one was favored, whether killing or their own battles, those were their affairs, outsiders couldn’t intervene.

But now, he felt perhaps the word "equality" never existed in this world.

What existed were higher-tier beings, coldly observing, believing lower-tier beings’ struggle for survival amounted to nothing.

This was perhaps what Yun Ran referred to earlier—the Heavenly Dao regarded everything as ants, everything as straw dogs.

Heavenly Dao’s concept of all beings equal was equivalent to the Heavenly Dao’s inaction.

Xuan Chu suddenly realized his former path was merely following Heavenly Dao Village’s path, not truly his own.

Dragon Spirit sensed an indistinct power emanating from Xuan Chu.
