Cannon-Fodder Heiress Turns the Tables by Fortune-Telling-Chapter 236 - 235: Ahhhhh! There’s a Ghost!!!

It seemed like just a trivial action, but the Tree Spirit that was hit by the Magic Spell felt a warm sensation throughout its body, feeling completely relaxed.

The Death Energy inside the Tree Spirit was forced out by Yun Ran.

It seemed as though the Death Energy had a mind of its own, attempting to flee, but it was promptly absorbed by the suddenly emerging Female Ghost King.

Caught off guard, the tree closest to the incident saw the head of the Female Ghost King emerge from under its shade.

It screamed in terror: "Aaaaah! A ghost!!!"

Unprepared, Yun Ran almost had her eardrums pierced by the Tree Spirit’s scream.

Rubbing her tortured ears, Yun Ran scolded with a stern face, "Shut up!"

The Tree Spirit immediately stopped its screaming, but felt extremely embarrassed, not knowing what else to say.

It could only tremble pitifully and shake its branches to express its grievances.

Yun Ran forced out the Death Energy from several other trees as well, and the Female Ghost King joyously devoured it.

It was daytime, and she was hiding inside the Sealing bead, afraid to frighten other life forms.

But now, it seemed she found teasing these Tree Spirits amusing and deliberately showed her head while devouring the Death Energy.

This immediately scared the other trees into shaking uncontrollably.

"Ha ha ha, I’m dying of laughter, these old guys have been around for hundreds of years and still such cowards~"

Yun Ran: ...

After stuffing the Female Ghost King back into the bead, Yun Ran looked helpless.

Could she say it wasn’t her idea to scare the Tree Spirits?

Seeing the terrified Tree Spirits, Yun Ran chose not to explain, feeling it might make things worse.

The Tree Spirits were truly frightened and just wanted Yun Ran to leave quickly. Without needing her to say anything, they all adhered to their agreement and offered a segment of their bodies to Yun Ran.

Yun Ran received the ’payment’ and nodded in satisfaction.

Then, she drew her Peach Wood Sword and split several huge stones next to the pine tree with a single stroke.

With that, the evil-attracting setup here was destroyed by Yun Ran.

After Yun Ran left, the pine trees began chirping again.

"Phew~ This person is really frightening, keeping the Ghost King by her side, isn’t she afraid of being countered?"

"I even wanted to deceive her and not give her the main body, but instead she used the Ghost King to scare us. Humans really are deceitful and cunning!"

"Enough, both of you quiet down, whatever the case, she did save us after all..."

Yun Ran held a few pieces of wood, about the size of her fingers, and slowly toyed with them in her hand.

True to their hundreds of years of age, the vitality inherently present in these woods was indeed extraordinary.

Ginsengfruit looked at the wood pieces curiously and asked, "Host, what’s the use of this wood?"

"I mentioned before about making a body for you, this is one of the materials. The preparations are almost complete, once I have some free time, I’ll make one for you."

This made Ginsengfruit momentarily stunned.

While it never doubted Yun Ran’s words, it hadn’t anticipated that Yun Ran would truly spend the time and effort to craft a body for it.

It was touched beyond words.

"Wuwuwu... I said, the Host really is the best host in the world, but, would it be okay if I install some weapons from the armory as equipment?"

Yun Ran: ...

Haha, what is climbing along the pole? This is exactly it!

Immediately she rolled her eyes: "You think I’m a turtle in the Wish Pond, able to grant whatever you wish."

When she got back to the car, Little Fatty was clearly looking towards Yun Ran with a hint of hope: "Ranran, is it taken care of?"

It was merely removing some Death Energy, to her, it was no big deal.

"Um, it’s done. If possible, when we get back, find some more trustworthy Feng Shui Masters to re-evaluate this place."

With outsiders present, Yun Ran didn’t want to say too much.

This resort villa had taken considerable time and money to build; if something went wrong just a few years after opening, even a big family like the Zhu Family couldn’t bear such a loss.

Little Fatty was stunned. His family always had highly trusted Feng Shui Masters, and now Yun Ran was asking him to find more to examine the place...

Little Fatty dared not think further, he quickly nodded his head, but he was already decided in his mind to report this matter to Grandpa and his eldest sister.

The driver soon took them to the mountaintop and Yun Ran saw that the resort actually had a lot of recreational facilities.

The scenery and air on the mountaintop were particularly good, making Yun Ran feel an urge to stay here for a while.

At that moment, Little Fatty presented a card to Yun Ran.

"If you like it here, you can stay directly; the Zhu Family has reserved several small buildings for private use."

Under normal circumstances, Yun Ran might be embarrassed to accept, but now she had just solved a problem for the Zhu Family, and naturally felt confident to accept.

While Yun Ran and others were enjoying the splendid natural scenery on the mountaintop.

In a villa in Hai City, a man was devoutly worshiping a wooden sculpture of an Evil God on the shrine.

Suddenly, the somewhat sentient-looking wooden sculpture unexpectedly split.

It cracked from the top down in several places.

If Yun Ran were here, she would see that the cracks were exactly like the marks she had left when she split those rocks earlier.

The man heard the sound of something cracking, opened his eyes, and saw a scene that made his eyes tear up with rage.

His gaze was one of fear, and also filled with confusion and resentment.

He muttered to himself: "How could this happen! Who exactly did the Zhu Family find? This is the second Divine Image that cracked."

After the wooden sculpture cracked, the man’s hair visibly grayed a bit.

Wrinkles also gradually appeared on his face, making him look ten years older.

He was just in his thirties, but now appeared at least fifty or sixty years old.

After his unwillingness passed, the man’s eyes then immediately flashed with ruthlessness, no one could stop his determination to destroy the Zhu Family.

In the past, his grandfather and Old Man Zhu were business partners, but as time passed, the Zhu Family prospered while their Zhang Family became destitute.

He also only heard the truth from a few old people a few years ago; it was that old fiend from Zhu Family who schemed to embezzle their family assets and even caused his grandfather to go to jail.

Otherwise, today Zhang Family would also be on Hai City’s rich list, and not just maintaining the facade of a pseudo-wealthy family.

Thinking of how the Zhu Family was now even more prosperous, the man felt his hatred almost bleeding.

"Zhu Family! Zhu Family! I will absolutely not let you off!"

Blinded by his hatred, the man completely failed to notice that the eyes of the wooden sculpture that had just cracked suddenly lit up but quickly dimmed again.
