Cannon-Fodder Heiress Turns the Tables by Fortune-Telling-Chapter 1079 - 1075: Even Beating a Dog Depends on Its Owner
It is said that when beating a dog, one must consider its master. Although she is not the master of Daoist Changshan and the Wang Family’s steward...
If these two were injured like this at another time, Yun Ran would not care.
However, those Black Robed People used them as a medium to track her, which made Yun Ran somewhat displeased.
The Black Robed People couldn’t see Yun Ran’s expression, but they still sensed the anger emanating from Yun Ran.
An inexplicable fear suddenly swept through their entire bodies.
It was as if they had done something unforgivable.
The expected angry reprimand did not come; instead, a light and faint laughter was heard, "Good, very good!"
If said in another context, the listener might indeed think this was a compliment.
But in this scenario, even with just a little thought, it’s obvious that this is sarcasm.
It’s the kind of sarcasm that comes after extreme anger.
This further instilled a sense of ’my life is over’ in the Black Robed People present.
Yun Ran raised her hand and waved.
The Little Paperman, who had been well-hidden earlier, immediately flew out.
Then it rushed directly toward Daoist Changshan and the Wang Family steward, who were lying on the ground and looked like they were about to die.
The Little Paperman rudely pried open their mouths and stuffed a handful of pills into them.
Although it was said to be a handful, the Little Paperman’s hand was really small, so a handful of pills was only a few.
The pills melted as soon as they entered their mouths.
The two who seemed to be on the verge of losing their vitality suddenly had their complexions become rosy at a visible speed.
But at this moment.
The Black Robed People’s focus was entirely away from Daoist Changshan and the Wang Family steward.
Their gaze was uniformly fixed on the busy Little Paperman.
The Little Paperman was pitch black all over, looking somewhat like an evil creature.
However, amidst most people here wearing black robes and hiding their heads, the pitch-black body seemed particularly fitting.
The person referred to as Hall Master looked at Yun Ran, then at the Little Paperman.
At this moment, he was convinced that the person in front of him was indeed one of the Black Robed People, definitely not an impostor.
It’s just that their identities and the sub-factions they belong to are different.
For example, people from other sub-factions may not necessarily recognize them, nor would they know all the things they do.
Yun Ran also didn’t expect that before emphasizing her identity, this Hall Master had already imagined many things.
Then in his heart, thoroughly solidified her identity.
’Uh...’
Daoist Changshan struggled to open his eyes.
He thought he was going to die; turns out, he’s still alive?
Scenes of his previous severe injuries immediately surfaced in his mind.
The affairs at the Wang Family Manor, after Lord Divine Envoy intervened, had greatly shocked him deep inside. 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖
Having gained the Divine Artifact Fragment as feedback, Daoist Changshan immediately had new plans.
He wanted to find more pieces of the Divine Artifact and gain more opportunities.
As for the steward, having exposed his identity, even if the Wang Family Patriarch wanted to keep him, he would not stay.
Daoist Changshan saw in the steward’s eyes something called ambition.
Therefore, they left the Wang Family Manor together.
As a result, as soon as they got halfway, they were stopped by a group of Black Robed People.
The steward was originally just a pawn developed by the Black Robed People; he did not yet have the qualification to join them or become one of their regular hands.
Upon seeing the Black Robed People, he immediately greeted them with great respect, even reporting his identity.
Unfortunately, what awaited them was brutal torture.
But from start to finish, neither Daoist Changshan nor the steward believed the Black Robed People in front of them saying that the Lord Divine Envoy, who reshaped their worldview, was an impostor.
They only thought this was internal conflict, framing and smearing!
And they were the pawns used by these people to frame the Lord Divine Envoy.
With this realization, Daoist Changshan and the steward immediately rebelled.
But imagination was good, reality was cruel.
The two together were not opponents of these Lords Divine Envoy.
Soon, the two were defeated.
Daoist Changshan clearly felt a vitality being pulled out of him.
It felt like a thread pierced through his body, keeping him perpetually in endless pain, yet unable to break free.
Worse than death; that’s what it felt like.
Finally, they were taken all the way here; if not for the steward having the medicine that Yun Ran gave.
They swallowed it when they were about to die, holding on to their last breath.
Waiting for Yun Ran to find them, there would surely be two cold corpses.
At this moment, Daoist Changshan’s consciousness returned, and everything before him still seemed like those scenes before he was dying.
The only difference was that the burning pain in his body had disappeared.
Replaced only by exhaustion from excessive physical exertion.
When Daoist Changshan clearly saw before him, it was indeed the Little Black Paperman of Lord Divine Envoy, with a medicinal fragrance still lingering in his mouth.
An unprecedented sense of peace immediately relaxed his previously tense and guarded heart.
As soon as his internal chord relaxed, he immediately fainted.
As for the steward, he only released his frown, remaining unconscious the whole time.
The Little Paperman tested under their nostrils and then felt their carotid arteries.
Confirming that both of them had survived, the Little Paperman then flew back to Yun Ran’s side.
"Master, they’re fine now."
After speaking, the Little Paperman silently retreated, concealing its aura completely.
Except for Yun Ran, no one present could detect the existence of the Little Paperman.
The Black Robed People, who were already somewhat startled, now looked at Yun Ran with eyes filled with reverence.
They easily recognized that Little Paperman; it was clearly a Puppet.
However, to make a Puppet so agile and have its own thoughts was beyond what ordinary Puppetry Technique could achieve.
At this moment, they profoundly realized once again that the person in front of them was by no means a mere ordinary henchman.
The Hall Master finally stood up instead of sitting cross-legged.
With a respect he did not even realize, he said, "Lord, it was our mistake earlier; we harmed your stake. Please forgive us."
As he said this, the Hall Master drew a dagger he always carried and stabbed himself twice.
Wearing black robes, even if his clothes were soaked with blood, they wouldn’t show.
If it weren’t for the fresh scent of blood lingering in the air, these two stabs would likely be hard to believe.
