Cannon-Fodder Heiress Turns the Tables by Fortune-Telling-Chapter 879 - 877: Don’t Be So Sensitive!
The sound of Heavenly Thunder became increasingly frequent, causing both the Black Panther and the Horned Serpent to shiver to their cores.
[What’s going on with this Heavenly Thunder!]
[How would I know!]
The two mortal enemies, who usually wished to bash each other’s heads in, were now embracing, as if this could somehow ward off their fear of the Heavenly Thunder.
"Bang bang bang..." came several sounds.
The Horned Serpent instantly lost its calm, its tail tightly coiled around the Black Panther.
The force was so great that it nearly caused the Black Panther’s eyes to pop out.
[Let go!!!]
The Horned Serpent didn’t respond, and the Black Panther was genuinely angry, its sharp claws fiercely clawing at the Horned Serpent’s vital spot.
[Aaaah...]
The screams reached the Black Panther’s ears, yet its claws not only didn’t release but tightened even more.
Finally, the Horned Serpent loosened its grip on the Black Panther.
[You damn thing, are you trying to take this chance to kill me and swallow my Demon Core!]
[Hmph, have you forgotten how strong your coiling force is? This force could strangle me, clearly, you’re the one trying to take this chance to kill!]
The two Great Demons were arguing over who was trying to murder whom, yet it seemed to alleviate much of their fear of the Heavenly Thunder.
In their argument, they both caught a whiff of a burning smell.
[This smell seems to be coming from over there!]
The Horned Serpent turned its head towards the source of the smell, discovering it came from the area where it had previously seen Demon Plants.
Recalling the explosive sound of the Heavenly Thunder, the Horned Serpent suddenly felt like it had grown smarter.
[Those Demon Plants must’ve been struck. Let’s go check it out!]
The Black Panther nodded solemnly, though it had been somewhat flustered by the Heavenly Thunder.
But in front of its nemesis, it wouldn’t show any weakness.
The two Great Demons set off together.
They quickly arrived at the area that looked like an ordinary garden.
The Horned Serpent surveyed the scene; everywhere was charred and chaotic, a sure sign of having been struck by lightning.
[So, being struck by lightning ends up like this. Suddenly, it seems like a good thing that no Heavenly Thunder has descended upon Death Mountain before.]
Otherwise, with the places they’ve stayed before, the destructive power of the Heavenly Thunder could have leveled their territory.
The Black Panther stepped forward to look, seeing that the flowers and plants had died, roots and all.
Even the land there had lost its nourishment.
It extended a paw, wanting to dig into the soil here to see what was different about a place struck by Heavenly Thunder.
A tingling sensation ran through the Black Panther’s entire body. So, this is what it felt like to be electrified?
Who would have thought the remnants of Heavenly Thunder could linger in the soil?
The Black Panther gritted its teeth to hide any reaction, then looked at the cautious Horned Serpent beside it.
[The roots of these Demon Plants are still of some use. You should dig out a bit too, don’t let it go to waste!]
No reason it should be the only one getting zapped.
The Horned Serpent looked at the Black Panther, clueless. Naturally, it didn’t expect the Black Panther to want it to share in the misfortune it was currently suffering.
Immediately, without any defense, it extended its tail, intending to search out those remaining stalks of Demon Plants.
Then, the Horned Serpent collapsed.
Being a creature that crawled on the ground, it had more contact area with the soil.
[You...]
The Horned Serpent now had only one thought: it would not rest until the Black Panther was dead!!!
Everything happening on the ground was transmitted in real-time through the perspectives of the Horned Serpent and the Black Panther to the Junior Master.
From the initial thunderclap of Heavenly Thunder to its ultimate destruction of the Demon Plant Garden.
Correspondingly, the previously balanced cracks on the Ice Coffin...
At the moment the Heavenly Thunder struck, the Ice Coffin seemed to find a new force to absorb.
Causing the existing scars on the Ice Coffin to begin healing again.
Yun Ran’s eyes widened slightly, "Huh, where did this strange new force come from?"
After all, it was the Dragon Spirit dragging the Ice Coffin, taking them this way!
Had Yun Ran not personally captured the Dragon Spirit back from the sea, she’d suspect it to be an agent from the other side!
The Dragon Spirit wasn’t an idiot; hearing this, it turned to glare at Yun Ran.
Anyone could see it was impossible for him to be the Traitor, Yun Ran, however, seemed more likely.
Besides, her demeanor showed no urgency at all, more like she was here on vacation.
The Dragon Spirit now was genuinely tempted to poison Yun Ran mute.
This mouth was simply unnecessary!
"Don’t act all innocent, this has nothing to do with me at all!"
Especially since before, Yun Ran said dragging one is dragging, dragging two is also dragging.
This shameless fellow just sat on his tail, enjoying the highest treatment.
Now she had the nerve to say such things, making the Dragon Spirit even angrier, ptui, truly heartless!
Seeing the Dragon Spirit somewhat displeased, Yun Ran sheepishly backed down, chalking it up to just a case of words escalating.
Besides, she wasn’t one of those who’d forget favors and complain right after being aided.
"I’m just making reasonable deductions; aren’t we supposed to boldly hypothesize and carefully verify now? Don’t be so sensitive!"
The Dragon Spirit snorted coldly, knowing full well that when Yun Ran was guilty, she would instead pin crimes on others.
An expert manipulator indeed!
The Junior Master at this moment had no time for Yun Ran and the Dragon Spirit’s bickering; he’d surveyed the surroundings, combining it with what he had ’seen’ through the eyes of the Horned Serpent and the Black Panther...
Quickly concluding that after the array in the Underground Palace was destroyed, the Ice Coffin had lost some shackles.
It could directly absorb the life force of those Demon Plants on the ground.
Likely due to this defiant act, Heavenly Thunder was drawn in.
Causing the Ice Coffin’s power absorption attempt to fail; now, the soil contained remnants of the Heavenly Thunder.
The Junior Master had seen with his own eyes that when Heavenly Thunder descended, the Ice Coffin ceased its power absorption...
Did this mean the Ice Coffin feared the power of Heavenly Thunder?
The Junior Master suddenly spoke: "Yun Ran, bring out your Heavenly Thunder Order!"
Yun Ran immediately stopped her childish glaring contest with the Dragon Spirit.
Her hand swiftly reached into her bag, pulling out the Heavenly Thunder Order.
The Junior Master beckoned with his hand, and the Heavenly Thunder Order flew into his palm.
The Dragon Spirit watched as the Junior Master merely tapped the Heavenly Thunder Order a few times.
The Heavenly Thunder Order, which appeared like an ordinary Token, hovered mid-air, spinning wildly.
