Cannon-Fodder Heiress Turns the Tables by Fortune-Telling-Chapter 848 - 846: Too Bad, I Don’t Need It!

Those red eyes looked at Yun Ran, emitting a halo from her body, even carrying an aura of merit, making the originally red eyes even redder.

They didn’t have mouths. Otherwise, they would have drooled because of those halos.

Looking at these dense and greedy red eyes, Yun Ran murmured about her trypophobia, yet the corners of her mouth slightly lifted.

At the same time, her hands did not pause in their actions.

Just as they excitedly lunged towards Yun Ran, she had already completed her sealing gesture.

Finally, she clenched her fist with one hand.

In an instant, Yun Ran’s ears were filled with the sound of countless bubbles popping.

This move was exactly the same as the method her little uncle used to deal with these red eyes.

The only difference was that her little uncle didn’t need the preliminary gestures, he could suppress them directly.

"Is this the lurking danger in the mist?"

But thinking about how easily she just eliminated those red eyes,

Yun Ran felt that these probably weren’t the ultimate killers hidden in the mist.

After thinking about it, Yun Ran took out her feather fan and waved it around her.

She felt that after crushing those red eyes, the air wasn’t as good anymore.

She fanned the wind to make the air circulate better here.

Then, she quickly took out her black umbrella and opened it, fearing that her body might get contaminated with the shattered particles of those red eyes.

In an instant, all the red eyes visible to the naked eye around Yun Ran disappeared.

And those red eyes continuing to hide behind the mist seemed to realize Yun Ran was not easy to deal with, and the mist seemed to have some confusing effect on her.

They immediately turned around and went towards other directions where life energy was emanating.

Meanwhile.

Gu Yuan’s subordinates finally found traces of Rong Gu’s escape and found the body of the person whose clothes Rong Gu had stolen.

"Gu Chu, Rong Gu probably went directly into Death Mountain, disguised as one of our people..."

As he said this, cold sweat dripped down the subordinate’s forehead.

Rong Gu’s escape was a slap in their face, and now she had mixed into their ranks without being noticed.

This was no longer just a slap in the face; if Rong Gu didn’t have her own agenda, their people would have been wiped out by now.

Thinking of this, the subordinate had no reason left to defend themselves.

The subordinate glanced cautiously at Gu Yuan, expecting him to be very angry.

But there was no sign of anger on Gu Yuan’s face, which left the subordinate more unsure.

"I understand, you may leave now."

The subordinate was puzzled but obediently stepped out.

At that moment, Gu Yuan’s phone rang.

Seeing the encrypted number, Gu Yuan wasn’t surprised and answered. A somewhat weak and aged voice came from the other end.

"Withdraw the people!"

Gu Yuan was silent for a moment before saying, "Sorry, but I only take orders from Director Xie."

The person on the other end was not surprised by Gu Yuan’s response.

"You’re still too young, not knowing how to choose the path that’s best for you. I don’t blame you."

Gu Yuan remained unmoved, as if whatever the other person said was irrelevant to him.

After a long pause, the other person spoke again: "As long as you withdraw, the position of deputy director of the Special Administration Bureau is yours. If you refuse, then your current position, and the Gu Family..."

It was a blatant threat.

Agreeing to their terms promised fame and fortune.

If he refused, not only would the results remain unchanged, but he’d also sacrifice his career and the future of the Gu Family.

These threats might have been effective on his 18-year-old self.

But not now; these threats were ineffective.

The other person’s words were evidently not finished when Gu Yuan interrupted, "Thank you for your kind offer, but unfortunately, I don’t need it!" 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚

After speaking, Gu Yuan hung up the phone.

"Come out."

As Gu Yuan’s voice fell, Taoist Xia, Daoist Qingmu, and more than a dozen sit-in leaders of the Special Administration Bureau emerged from another door.

Taoist Xia looked at the smile on Gu Yuan’s face, feeling slightly creepy.

He had now returned to his original appearance, which made him stand out among the group of older bigwigs.

But the name Taoist Xia had followed him for many years, and everyone continued to call him that.

Daoist Qingmu sighed lightly before saying, "Gu Chu, just tell us what you want us to do."

Gu Yuan, however, didn’t immediately state his purpose, instead scanning everyone with his eyes.

Only then did he speak, "There’s nothing major, just hope all of you can stay here for a while, don’t leave, and of course, don’t contact anyone. It’s best if no one knows where you are."

Upon hearing this, everyone was a bit stunned.

They originally thought Gu Chu brought them here to help.

Some impatient ones immediately showed dissatisfaction, thinking of how Gu Yuan had asked them to come secretly before...

"Are you suspecting us?"

Taoist Xia and Daoist Qingmu, because of their close relationship with Yun Ran, also had a good relationship with Gu Yuan.

They immediately stepped in to mediate.

"What are you saying? We are all on the same side, let’s not hurt the harmony."

Taoist Xia even stepped forward, using his body to stand in the middle, afraid that both sides would start fighting.

Taoist Xia hurriedly winked at Gu Yuan, while Daoist Qingmu pulled back the bigwig who had spoken harshly earlier.

"Let’s talk this over properly."

"I have reliable information that among you, someone indeed has a close relationship with the Black Robed People, even if they are not working for them, they are providing them with convenience."

This statement immediately caused the previously calm scene to explode.

Even Taoist Xia and Daoist Qingmu, who were clearly partial to Gu Yuan, were stunned.

"No, what do you mean by that? If you have the guts, just name the person, and let’s confront them face to face!"

"Exactly, speaking so vaguely, trapping us all here, are you trying to smear us?"

"Where is Director Xie? Just because you’re a Gu Family member and have Director Xie’s authorization, doesn’t mean you can abuse your authority!"

...

Gu Yuan didn’t plan to explain anything. If it weren’t for the information from Shen Jun (Yun Ran’s biological father), he wouldn’t have thought of this tactic to cut off all retreat.

"If I hadn’t trapped you all here, that phone call wouldn’t have come through. You’d better keep quiet, wait for Director Xie to return, and make a decision!"

Gu Yuan still looked at everyone with a smile.

Who would have thought there was someone extremely important to the Black Robed People among them?
