Cannon-Fodder Heiress Turns the Tables by Fortune-Telling-Chapter 897 - 895: Ten Years of Life Stolen
The Dragon Spirit listened to the Special Administration Bureau’s young people with their voice of facing death fearlessly and their resolute expressions.
Paused for a moment: "It’s not that exaggerated, just that some of your lifespan has been taken away."
Everyone: ...
This exaggeration almost scared them to death, but having their lifespan taken away, although not a death sentence, could be considered a suspended death sentence.
Yet the Little Paperman still liked to press the matter: "How much has been taken away!"
Human lifespan is so short, completely different from the Dragon Spirit, a being that’s lived for thousands of years.
Perhaps the time it took for the Dragon Spirit to go into seclusion or take a nap would be half a lifetime for a human.
The Dragon Spirit looked speechlessly at the Little Paperman. He thought that he needed to have a talk with Yun Ran. Such a Magic Artifact shouldn’t be so talkative!
"Ten years!"
The few people whose hearts had sunk revived immediately.
Thankfully, only ten years of lifespan were taken away.
"Did you see clearly what the phantom that took their lifespan looked like?"
The Dragon Spirit thought for a moment and then sketched the appearance of the phantom. He thought he sketched it quite well.
However, everyone who saw it frowned, trying hard to guess what exactly this thing was.
The Little Paperman, who also loved drawing, came over too.
"Why does this look a bit like a rabbit!"
Before the Little Paperman pointed it out, some people also felt the drawing resembled a rabbit.
But they instinctively dismissed the possibility.
How could it be possible for something that could take away ten years of one’s lifespan with just a glance, without disturbing a single Magic Artifact, to be a gentle rabbit?
Yet now, the Little Paperman said it.
One person thinking it’s a rabbit might indicate a vision problem for that person.
But if several people see it as a rabbit, then it’s not a vision problem.
It can only mean one thing: the phantom is indeed a rabbit.
"Hiss! A rabbit, how could it be a rabbit!"
Such a cute little rabbit, such a tasty little rabbit, how could it be such a ferocious creature?
Several members of the Special Administration Bureau were somewhat incredulous. After all, in their minds, rabbits equated to gentleness.
The Little Paperman suddenly snorted coldly, wrapped its tiny arms and sat on the Dragon Spirit’s shoulder, even crossing its legs.
"What’s impossible about it? Didn’t we say earlier that there are Ancient Beast bones here? Who said rabbits couldn’t become Ancient Beasts!"
It had once seen some chubby, cute little animals in the master’s album, also sealed.
The master had said that one should not judge by appearances, and the same went for Ancient Beasts.
"But, rabbit..."
Sometimes, when one’s worldview is challenged, it’s inherently difficult to quickly accept it.
"Stop with the buts. If you really have this time, you might as well look and see if the bones of the Ancient Beast are rabbit bones!"
The Little Paperman was especially smug at the moment.
These people belong to the Special Administration Bureau and yet they don’t know as much as it does.
Hmm, it’ll go through the master’s albums more later on. There’ll be plenty of opportunities to show off in the future.
Then, the Little Paperman felt a bit regretful that it landed on the Dragon Spirit.
It should have flown onto someone else, maybe even sat on their head, which would have been even more impressive.
As the Little Paperman was still thinking about showing off, its body shook. 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞
It turned out that the Dragon Spirit had shooed it off.
"The task of finding the Beast Bone is yours, and I’ll handle the phantom from before!"
The Dragon Spirit also felt that it had been shamed by the phantom.
In any case, he is the majestic Dragon King. These young people from the Special Administration Bureau are under his protection.
With him around, a phantom dared to appear so brazenly here. Isn’t this a provocation!
If their previous guesses were correct, the Array here is indeed activated by the burial of those Ancient Beast Bones.
Then that phantom would definitely not stray too far from here.
The Little Paperman was a bit annoyed about being shooed off.
But after listening to the Dragon Spirit, it knew letting others find the Ancient Beast Bones was as good as letting them die.
"Alright, I’ll go find it!"
The Little Paperman instantly disappeared.
Several other Little Papermen, however, stayed by Xie Xuzhi’s side the entire time and did not leave.
They had already divided their roles clearly.
Some Little Papermen went to work, while others stayed by Xie Xuzhi to ensure he stayed alive.
Xie Xuzhi was very aware, knowing that his Magic Artifacts, though capable of ensuring his safety elsewhere, could not guarantee it here.
So, despite having some thoughts, he didn’t let the Little Papermen protecting him leave his side.
The most important reason was because he knew that his Qi Fortune seemed related to Yun Ran, so he dared not take the risk.
Meanwhile.
Yun Ran, following the White Tiger, had reached the forked junction where there were initially eight tunnels.
Seeing the identical tunnel entrances, the White Tiger was suddenly dumbfounded.
"This... this..."
The Black Panther and the horned snake looked left and right; making them recognize the way was completely pointless.
The White Tiger watched Yun Ran, who went straight for one of the tunnel entrances, hurriedly stopping her.
"How do you know it’s this way!"
Yun Ran looked speechlessly at the White Tiger, once again feeling worried for the creatures of Death Mountain.
With such a Demon King, they must have been truly unfortunate in their past lives.
"Of course, it’s because I’ve walked this tunnel before. From here, you can directly exit, reaching the edge of Death Mountain."
The White Tiger looked again, but he still felt that these tunnel entrances were identical, questioning whether Yun Ran really recognized it.
But seeing Yun Ran’s obviously displeased expression, the White Tiger could only sheepishly retract his gaze.
Then glanced at the horned snake.
The horned snake understood immediately, quickly placing a mark in the tunnel they came from, so they could find their way back later on.
Clouds of dust swirled in the path they took, and the mark left by the horned snake immediately transferred to another side.
As they walked, the White Tiger still felt something off.
"Why do I feel like this tunnel is somehow restraining me? I feel uncomfortable."
Yun Ran was about to say the White Tiger was being dramatic.
But, when she glanced back, Yun Ran’s heart skipped a beat.
Several times, the ears that the youth had barely suppressed popped up again, and not only that, even his nose turned fluffy.
