Cannon-Fodder Heiress Turns the Tables by Fortune-Telling-Chapter 942 - 940: Take One Step at a Time

Fortunately, at this moment, the Little Paperman returned, and Yun Ran finally dismissed the idea of crushing the Dragon Spirit’s claw.

"Master, we hid in someone’s backpack and entered the city, gathering some intel.

This place is a bit different from the world we were in before. It hasn’t experienced the chaos of the Xuan Sect, so the subsequent development is also different.

The forces of the Xuan Sect are very powerful, and the ordinary people live much like those from the feudal dynasties of old.

Moreover, judging by the timeline, the current development level here is somewhat similar to the Republic of China period in the previous world.

The feudal minded are extremely feudal, and the trendy ones are very trendy.

On the streets, there’s a variety of clothing: some wear short-sleeved dresses, while others wear long robes.

I even saw quite a few daughters of wealthy families living in attics and binding their feet!"

Yun Ran: ...

So, even without the turmoil of the Xuan Sect, the subsequent historical process is still startlingly similar.

The only difference seems to be just the different time spans of development for each era.

Yun Ran looked at his clothing, and he didn’t seem too out of place here. At most, he would just look trendy to others.

Just as the Dragon Spirit said that they should enter the city soon, find a suitable place to settle, recuperate, and then begin the search for the Heavenly Book.

Then they heard the Little Paperman continue, "However, in this world, because of the high status of Dark Masters, many Dark Masters maintain their identity.

For beings like Evil Spirits, there’s absolutely no tolerance. Any household where a bit of out-of-line behavior occurs.

Will have its members arrested by the Xuan Sect’s law enforcement, claiming it’s possession by evil, requiring a large amount of money for release.

Many even use this rule during family fights to get rid of members of their own family this way.

The most brutal aspect is that they still preserve the punishment of burning at the stake.

If beings like the Dragon King were discovered by those Dark Masters.

They would undoubtedly go all out to capture, then add to their record of achievements."

Dragon Spirit: ...

He didn’t know if it was appropriate to say something! He was a member of the Special Administration Bureau, and unexpectedly in this world, he became someone else’s claim to fame.

Originally wanting to flaunt his status or even perform a miracle of the dragon soaring through the skies, now he was completely restrained.

Dragon Spirit burst into laughter with anger, and after a while, managed to say, "These people are really messed up!"

"What do we do now!"

In two lifetimes, Yun Ran never thought he would encounter such a situation.

But what could they do? They had just arrived in this world, had not yet gained a foothold, and didn’t even know what kind of standards those Dark Masters possessed.

So, they could only take it one step at a time and look for opportunities later.

Thinking it through, Yun Ran took out two very old-looking wooden signs from his Qiankun Bag.

"These are signs that can conceal one’s identity aura, something exclusive to disciples of Qingfeng Temple and not shared with outsiders.

Keep them closely on you, don’t take them off, that way no one will be able to see your true form."

Ginsengfruit reached out to take it and put it around his neck like a precious item.

Instantly, the aura from Ginsengfruit disappeared, even the Dragon Spirit standing close couldn’t sense a thing.

Dragon Spirit also reached out, haughtily saying, "Since these are items exclusive to Qingfeng Temple disciples, I, as the disciple of the master, will reluctantly accept it.

First of all, I’m not afraid of those people, those bunches of worthless fools don’t even deserve a swipe of the Dragon King’s claw!"

After saying this, Dragon Spirit also put it on, and the powerful aura belonging to the Dragon Spirit was instantly concealed.

Dragon Spirit glanced at Yun Ran’s Qiankun Bag and snorted.

So what if you have treasures, he has them too, and they’re innate. When he returns, he’ll also find the master to trade for some Qingfeng Temple items to keep.

"Alright, let’s go into the city now, oh, we should first state our identities!"

Dragon Spirit quickly glanced at Yun Ran again, then continued, "Ginsengfruit is your apprentice, I’m the master’s disciple.

Fine, considering you joined first, I’ll reluctantly call you Senior Sister, and Ginsengfruit will call me Uncle Master!"

Dragon Spirit decided on the identities himself, then strode forward, not giving Yun Ran a chance to refuse.

Seeing their host neither angry nor refusing, Ginsengfruit accepted it.

But as Dragon Spirit walked on, Ginsengfruit quickly called out to him.

"Uncle Master, wait, we need to carry our master too,"

Dragon Spirit, who had just taken two steps: ...

A misstep, he could only backtrack and resignedly begin to carry Yun Ran.

Meanwhile, he couldn’t help but console himself: if it weren’t for Yun Ran being injured, he, the dignified Dragon King, wouldn’t be carrying Yun Ran! Really struck it rich here!

As they returned to the sunlight, Yun Ran decisively took out his Black Umbrella, with first-rate sun-blocking effects.

Dragon Spirit didn’t think for a second that Yun Ran was enjoying himself while he was suffering.

Instead, he walked steadily, trying to avoid any bumps.

Ginsengfruit, following behind, looked at Dragon Spirit with resentment.

But in action, he was particularly careful, fearing any mishap would hurt their host more.

Couldn’t help but find it amusing, the Dragon King was truly a perfect example of someone whose mouth says one thing while their body does another.

Soon, they reached the entrance to the city, and sure enough, it was different from their previous stay.

There was even a city gate, something you only see on ancient streets or in film sets.

People guarded the city gate, but fortunately, they merely watched without searching people’s belongings or stopping pedestrians for questioning.

However, when Yun Ran and the others approached, those in uniforms at the city gate made a stop gesture towards them.

This made Dragon Spirit quite unhappy; he had been keeping such a low profile, and still got stopped. Was this reasonable!

If Yun Ran hadn’t said they hadn’t figured out the situation yet and should observe first, he would certainly have kicked away these blockers one by one!

Troubled already and still had to deal with these people, truly annoying!

"Who are you, and why are you entering the city?"

In a place where everyone else was wearing drab clothes, Yun Ran and his group’s attire was indeed quite ostentatious.

The clothes Yun Ran and Ginsengfruit wore evidently weren’t cheap.

And Dragon Spirit, wearing a garment embroidered with gold threads, was practically blinding.
