Cannon-Fodder Heiress Turns the Tables by Fortune-Telling-Chapter 837 - 835: Opening the Door to a New World (Second Update)
The journey out was going smoothly, and if nothing unexpected happened, they would be out soon.
But often, when nothing unexpected happens, something unexpected will happen.
Yun Ran remained vigilant at all times, absolutely not giving her little martial uncle another chance to catch her making mistakes.
"Wait!"
Just when Yun Ran’s guard was at its peak, she suddenly heard her little martial uncle speak.
Yun Ran: ...
See? She knew it. Wherever her little martial uncle was, there was no room for her to mess things up.
Because, when there was no danger, her little martial uncle was the most dangerous.
If it were someone else, Yun Ran would have jumped up and proudly said: See, see, who is the one causing trouble now!
But she didn’t dare say that in front of her little martial uncle. 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎
"You all wait here, I’ll go check it out!"
What could Yun Ran do? She could only obediently nod, and even restrain the Ginsengfruit and Little Paperman from being too curious.
Her little martial uncle didn’t care what Yun Ran was thinking; he quickly arrived in front of an unusually eerie stone wall, with many, many carvings on it.
However, these carvings were extremely chaotic, as if done by someone not in their right mind.
Of course, one must exclude the possibility that the person’s carving and narrating skills were simply mediocre.
Yun Ran couldn’t keep still for even three minutes before feeling uncomfortable.
Then she lightly coughed and trotted in the direction of her little martial uncle.
Her little martial uncle wasn’t surprised to see Yun Ran appear behind him.
He even moved to the side, wanting Yun Ran to see more clearly.
Yet he overlooked that his little wooden-man stature could only block so much.
Xie Xuzhi watched this scene, a touch of emotion involuntarily showing in his eyes.
Master Huai Yi must cherish Yun Ran greatly to subconsciously make such a gesture. No wonder Yun Ran never internally struggles, let alone does anything to prove herself.
This is likely the kind of confidence that comes from being well-nurtured and deeply cared for.
"This thing looks a bit familiar~"
After saying this, Yun Ran directly shouted to Xie Xuzhi not far away: "You come and take a look too."
Now knowing Yun Ran’s position in Master Huai Yi’s heart, Xie Xuzhi suddenly felt much more at ease.
He quickly walked over and, upon seeing the patterns on the wall, also felt they were very familiar.
It’s just that the patterns here were somewhat chaotic, but if they were more refined, he might immediately recognize them.
After a while, Xie Xuzhi said: "Don’t you think this is quite similar to the patterns we saw before in Yinghua Country?"
Yun Ran was almost lying on the stone wall, finally seeing a pattern she could recognize.
Then followed a long silence.
It was caused by speechlessness.
The talisman paper from Xuanmen people, even a slight error would lead to vastly different effects.
The pattern before her now, compared to what she had seen before, was equivalent to two completely different things.
Now, she didn’t know if the person who made this rock mural was simply unskilled or intentionally making it hard to recognize.
Her little martial uncle was very interested in this mural, and upon hearing Yun Ran say she had seen it before, directly asked: "Where did you two see similar patterns before?"
Yun Ran immediately recounted the discovery of that Immortal Ascension Channel and mentioned how she almost got forcibly sacrificed, lucky she had some skills.
While speaking, Yun Ran took out some items she had previously collected from her bag, even having fragments of the blasted Immortal Ascension Channel.
Her little martial uncle took the bronze implement and fragments handed over by Yun Ran.
Suddenly, an air fluctuation appeared without warning.
Yun Ran didn’t even have time to activate her protective shield before her little martial uncle drew a circle with his hand and pushed out a palm.
The air fluctuation immediately changed the direction of its attack.
"Little martial uncle, this..."
Her little martial uncle glanced at the items in his hands, then casually said: "These items should be accessories belonging to this Demon-locking Tower."
Yun Ran: ...
So, does this mean she brought the ’trouble’ all the way here?
As her little martial uncle finished speaking, the previously unremarkable bronze item seemed to be activated, flickering with light.
This appearance was like an object with depleted energy, starting to recharge anew.
Simultaneously, the previously chaotic-looking patterns on the stone wall seemed to come alive, starting to wiggle.
Yun Ran immediately got goosebumps.
At this moment, even wanting to retrieve and put away the bronze item was impossible.
Xie Xuzhi thought Yun Ran wanted to find a way to remedy the situation, but Yun Ran just sat down on the ground.
Then, from her bag, she took out many items that, upon seeing, seemed to have nothing to do with remedying the situation.
These changes didn’t concern her little martial uncle at all; instead, he focused on the wriggling and changing patterns.
Once Yun Ran had arranged everything, she began fortune-telling.
Xie Xuzhi: ...
No way, at such a tense moment, what does Yun Ran intend to divine?
The bewildered Xie Xuzhi directly asked: "Are you trying to figure out what these things are?"
Yun Ran’s fortune-telling skills are renowned, and if she said she wanted to divine these, Xie Xuzhi would believe her.
But without even lifting her head, Yun Ran replied: "I’m figuring out if we can get out of here alive, and if we’ll do so without missing any limbs."
Anyway, the patterns on this stone wall definitely weren’t mere idle graffiti.
Yun Ran hadn’t liked fortune-telling for herself before, for one because it wasn’t always accurate, and more importantly, knowing too much made life seem dull.
The Ginsengfruit and Little Paperman were Magic Artifacts she had refined, and she couldn’t divine for them.
Her little martial uncle’s cultivation was far superior to hers, making it impractical to divine, lest she cough up blood and still gain nothing.
So, at this moment, the only ones she could divine for were herself and Xie Xuzhi.
After arranging the Array, Yun Ran began fortune-telling for herself.
Pinching her fingers to calculate the first time, Yun Ran’s pupils shrank, her face full of disbelief.
Never one to doubt her own abilities, she immediately started a second calculation.
The result was the same.
Yun Ran was genuinely dumbfounded; when did she gain a Marriage Contract?!
Moreover, she was sharing someone else’s Qi Fortune!!!
If Yun Ran wasn’t sure she couldn’t possibly plunder someone else’s Qi Fortune, she would suspect herself of being an Evil Cultivator.
"Unexpectedly, such a good thing awaits me? Let me divine who the person on the other side of the Marriage Contract is—more of such wool-gathering would be great."
At this moment, Yun Ran felt like she had opened the door to a new world, wishing to enter into more contracts to possibly suppress that Heavenly Abandoned Life Chart.
