Cannon-Fodder Heiress Turns the Tables by Fortune-Telling-Chapter 1121 - 1117: Luring the Enemy Deep?

Upon hearing this, Dragon Spirit felt a bit disappointed.

But he quickly concealed that disappointment, his tone carrying a hint of reassurance.

"Ask Xuan Chu, Heavenly Dao Village surely has a way!"

Suddenly, not far away, the copper mirror being cursed by the little paperman emitted a faint cracking sound.

The sound was soft, yet Yun Ran and Dragon Spirit still heard it.

Dragon Spirit looked over in surprise; the copper mirror’s durability was stronger than many powerful magic artifacts.

The little paperman’s cursing abruptly stopped and then looked at its tiny fist.

Did it crack the copper mirror?

Is it actually this powerful now?!!!

The little paperman turned its head towards Yun Ran’s direction, its small eyes still slightly puzzled.

Yun Ran couldn’t sit still any longer, she stood up directly and walked towards the copper mirror.

The surface of the copper mirror was covered in dust, making its original appearance indiscernible.

"Go fetch some water."

The little paperman immediately grabbed a small bucket and went to fetch water.

Soon, the little paperman returned, picked up the copper mirror, and splashed water over it.

After the dust was washed away by the water, the copper mirror’s present appearance was revealed.

Visually, it appeared slightly deformed, yet the mirror surface remained smooth without any cracks.

Dragon Spirit wanted to step forward to inspect it, but Yun Ran tugged on his sleeve.

"Don’t go near, who knows if that sound was a deliberate trap by the copper mirror?"

Dragon Spirit immediately halted his steps.

If anyone else said such things, Dragon Spirit would think they were paranoid.

But Yun Ran saying it means... it could very well be true.

Yun Ran flicked out a piece of talisman paper, sticking it above the copper mirror before stepping forward to crouch down.

Her expression was clearly that of a villain’s smile: "This kind of deceiving trick, I stopped playing when I was three..."

Saying this, Yun Ran took out her peach wood sword from her bag.

The peach wood sword had the ability to break barriers.

At this moment, the copper mirror continued to feign death, appearing just like an ordinary mirror.

Through the mirror, Yun Ran could see her sinister smile.

The handle of the peach wood sword slowly crept up her wrist, seemingly merging into one with her arm.

A terrifying aura emanated from the peach wood sword.

Dragon Spirit had seen the peach wood sword’s true form before, even knowing Yun Ran wouldn’t use it against him.

Yet Dragon Spirit felt a desire to distance himself, fearing the sword’s aura would engulf him.

If Dragon Spirit felt this way, the copper mirror being the main target naturally felt even more deeply.

Yun Ran gestured a couple of times, continuing: "If you keep feigning death, silently plotting havoc, I will split you in half.

Anyway, you were split into twelve pieces before. Surely becoming thirteen pieces won’t matter right?" 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

Dragon Spirit could sense that Yun Ran wasn’t threatening nor bluffing as she spoke.

She genuinely intended to split the copper mirror in two.

Dragon Spirit’s gaze turned expectant; he hoped the copper mirror would resist till the end.

So he could see what the copper mirror would become once split in two.

Whether the copper mirror ended up as scrap was none of his concern.

Just as Yun Ran raised the peach wood sword, words suddenly appeared on the copper mirror’s surface.

[I was wrong, please spare me!]

The villainous expression on Yun Ran’s face froze.

Miscalculation; she should have acted faster.

Dragon Spirit had heard Yun Ran mention the copper mirror had some consciousness.

But it would only plead when pushed to the limit.

Seeing the copper mirror beg for mercy now made Dragon Spirit’s expression change repeatedly.

He was surprised and asked, "Is this how the other copper mirror begged you before it was wiped clean?"

Yun Ran sighed yet didn’t retract the peach wood sword.

"Knowing you were wrong is insufficient; you must exchange useful information as well."

Copper Mirror:...

Since it gained consciousness, it had never suffered such indignation, always being the one to threaten others.

Now it was beaten and threatened!

The copper mirror wanted to act tough and ignore Yun Ran.

However, the little paperman’s punch truly hurt, deforming its smooth mirror surface.

Not to mention the astonishing threat of Yun Ran’s peach wood sword.

The copper mirror pondered how to offer trivial information to fool this person.

Yun Ran’s peach sword moved closer.

She took out the previously wiped copper mirror too.

"See that? This is what happened to the one that opposed me; its consciousness was completely erased."

Seeing its wiped mate, the copper mirror behaved obediently, not daring to babble.

It had devoured many resentful spirits to barely form a bit of consciousness.

If erased, it would prefer being split by Yun Ran’s peach wood sword.

[What do you want to know?]

Dragon Spirit’s eyes flashed, realizing this was the copper mirror’s way of communicating (threatening).

"I want to know where the other copper mirror pieces are, and how you devour resentful spirits and evil aura?"

The copper mirror hadn’t expected such questions right away.

No reaction came for a long while.

Had it not previously seen words emerge on the copper mirror’s surface, Dragon Spirit might think conversing with it was fanciful.

Yun Ran upped the stakes: "If you tell me how you devoured resentful spirits and yin energy,

I’ll not only spare you but help you find more yin energy to assist in forming an artifact spirit.

But if you persist in feigning death, I can only truly send you to death.

Anyway, there are eleven other copper mirrors; I can’t believe they’re all as stubborn as you."

Expecting a further wait for the copper mirror to reply,

yet as Yun Ran finished speaking, words again appeared on the copper mirror: [Can you really assist me in birthing an artifact spirit?]

Yun Ran’s eyes gleamed with a smile, resembling a trickster deceiving a child.

"Of course I can; how could someone like me tell a lie?"

Dragon Spirit shivered with goosebumps, his mouth tightening into a line.

Yun Ran not lying is akin to the sea having no fish.
