Cannon-Fodder Heiress Turns the Tables by Fortune-Telling-Chapter 1095 - 1091: Only a Strong Fist Makes the Real Argument
But this time, Yun Ran was prepared, and it was impossible for the iron chains to tie her up like before.
"Clang~~~"
A series of metallic collisions rang out.
Yun Ran didn’t react much, but Mo Zhi seemed to be suffering from a severe sonic attack.
She clutched her ears desperately, a look of pain on her face.
However, the sound wasn’t only transmitted through the ears, so even if Mo Zhi covered her ears, the sound still echoed in her mind.
Mo Zhi didn’t want to embarrass Yun Ran; even though she was in such pain, she bit her lip hard, refusing to make any noise.
"Channel the Merit Golden Light within you!"
Yun Ran was busy dealing with the iron chains popping up from all directions, and couldn’t spare a hand to help Mo Zhi.
She could only remind Mo Zhi to save herself.
Even though this was the Forbidden Land of the Ghost World, the Merit Golden Light was evidently a strong currency here.
Mo Zhi quickly channeled the Merit Golden Light within her.
The thick fog around Mo Zhi and the iron chains that were heading for her were instantly repelled by the light emanating from the Merit Golden Light.
In this somewhat eerie place, Mo Zhi shone with golden light, like a moving light source.
"Master, I’m here to help you!"
The shadow controlling the chains attacking Yun Ran could not believe that a living person like Yun Ran could fight back and forth with the Soul-locking Chain.
And the little ghost it had ignored from the beginning also had Merit Golden Light Protection.
What on earth were these monsters!
[You...really have some skills!]
The tone clearly softened, with none of the previous forceful attempts to keep Yun Ran there.
Yun Ran: ...
Indeed, having strong fists is the real truth!
Previously, Yun Ran had said she had backing, and it was a Ghost Immortal who could walk freely in the Ghost World.
The shadow gave some face but not much, not showing Yun Ran much respect.
Otherwise, it wouldn’t have started with completely unequal terms.
And at the slightest disagreement, it wanted to make things difficult for Yun Ran.
At this moment, the opponent clearly wanted to find a way out, and Yun Ran wasn’t someone who refused to cooperate.
She was the first to stop, and after Yun Ran stopped, the chains disappeared again.
Yun Ran raised an eyebrow, as she had suspected.
"Of course, I’m someone with skills, otherwise, I wouldn’t have dared to come to the Forbidden Land of the Ghost World."
In truth, Yun Ran initially did not know this was the Forbidden Land of the Ghost World.
Otherwise, she wouldn’t have come here to provoke creatures capable of surviving in the Ghost World’s Forbidden Land, especially when it was obvious this creature wasn’t benign.
Hmph, it’s just bearing a Slaughter Order, what’s the big deal? At most, just a bit more unlucky, and she can’t frequently come to the Ghost World.
After a long time, the shadow finally spoke: [I can help you remove the Slaughter Order, but you must find out my identity for me!]
This time, the shadow finally knew when to take a step back.
It didn’t mention asking Yun Ran to help it leave the Ghost World’s Forbidden Land.
"Deal!"
The shadow slowly approached Yun Ran, and Mo Zhi’s eyes darted around, positioning herself behind Yun Ran.
The entire ghost had turned into the appearance of a little golden figure.
Mo Zhi was clearly wary of the shadow taking advantage of the situation to harm Yun Ran.
[Truly a little ghost, a petty-minded one at that!]
Mo Zhi: ...
She’s a Half-step Ghost Emperor, not a little ghost.
Tch, this obnoxious creature is trapped in the Ghost World’s Forbidden Land, serves it right, with that foul mouth!
The shadow reached out and plucked something from Yun Ran’s head, as if pulling a weed.
Yun Ran felt as if something was pulled out of her.
In the blink of an eye, the shadow drifted away, gradually blending into the surrounding fog.
’Crunch, crunch...’
The sound of chewing.
This kind of sound would normally not be considered scary.
But in this setting, such a sound made even Mo Zhi, who was herself a ghost of the Ghost World, feel chills.
Not until the chewing sound got fainter did Mo Zhi quietly ask, "Master, is that creature gone?"
Yun Ran nodded.
The surrounding fog remained, but the earlier dangerous, hair-raising sensation was gone.
And the map that had been playing dead finally seemed to come back to life.
The old sheepskin map reverted to a pristine, white appearance.
A cartoon arrow reappeared, trying to curry favor with Yun Ran, offering to guide them out of here.
Yun Ran: ...
These days, even maps know how to act cute.
"Let’s go."
With the map’s guidance, leaving this Forbidden Land would be easy.
If it were any other living person or ghost that intruded here, let alone escaping, surviving would be a stroke of luck.
Mo Zhi was on edge the entire time.
Not until they finally walked out of the foggy area did Mo Zhi let out a long breath.
It was only then that the belated fear struck her.
She had been staring down someone who could survive in the Ghost World’s Forbidden Land!
And she had been tied up by the Soul-locking Chain!!!
In the Ghost World, there’s no ghost that isn’t afraid of the Soul-locking Chain.
Who knows what that creature’s origins are, to be able to control the Soul-locking Chain so adeptly, even more proficiently than Ghost Messengers.
"Master, so we just left like that, isn’t that creature worried about you deceiving it and not helping to find its identity?"
Yun Ran gave Mo Zhi an exasperated look: "Do you think everyone’s as simple-minded as you? Since it dared to let us go, it must have its backup."
The Slaughter Order on her was removed, but that doesn’t mean it can’t be reissued.
If she really dared to get away with it, the next time she entered the Ghost World, it might not be just the Ten Thousand Ghosts Slaughter Order marking her.
"Phew~ finally done with this troublesome affair, now, we should head back and take a look."
If not for Yun Ran overextending her luck while calculating a lifeline for Lotus City, she wouldn’t have needed to remove that Slaughter Order at this critical juncture.
Wasn’t it only because she was worried that the Slaughter Order would further diminish her already precarious fortune?
Sigh, these annoying buffs are just stacking up.
If it were any other Xuanmen person, even one of these troubles would have been enough to kill them.
