Cannon-Fodder Heiress Turns the Tables by Fortune-Telling
Chapter 1163 - 1159: Don’t You Have Them Too?
Yun Ran really wanted to roll her eyes at these people, but to maintain her current shallow, brash persona, she had to hold back.
But that didn’t stop her from rolling her eyes internally: What kind of people are these, all respectable in their forties and fifties, yet they don’t know not to reach for others’ things so easily!
Ugh!
Elder Kang still had some decency, and gave the person holding the talisman paper a look.
The person immediately showed a hint of regret on his face. A distinguished person like him lost face in front of a little girl, and even uttered such rude words earlier.
But fortunately, he was only momentarily distracted and quickly regained his composure.
Looking at the talisman paper in his hand, he opened his mouth with some confusion, "This indeed is High-level Talisman Paper, but it seems it’s not usable."
Yun Ran: ...
This person clearly showed an embarrassed expression earlier, how can he shamelessly ask such a question now?
Who ever heard of a good person not only coveting what belongs to others but also questioning why the owner can’t make use of it!
At this moment, Yun Ran suddenly felt that, compared to these people, her character was really much better.
In the future, let’s see who will dare to say she’s thick-skinned!
Yun Ran reached out to take the High-level Talisman Paper back, then casually waved it, immediately activating the talisman paper in her hand.
An invisible wave of air suddenly appeared, completely isolating Yun Ran from the others.
If it were someone else in the room, they might have only felt that the air wave was just a gust of wind.
However, the members of the Xuan Sect were able to clearly distinguish the power of this air wave, its defensive capability could even crush many arrays. 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦
After doing all this, Yun Ran’s face instead showed an innocent look as if oblivious to the value of necessities.
Her eyes were full of puzzlement, "This talisman paper is usable~"
What truly defines a proverbial blow to one’s heart, this is it.
The more Yun Ran acted casually and innocently, the more it slapped these people’s faces, the feeling of playing a fool while being a tiger was utterly satisfying.
Yun Ran enjoyed her performance, but the others looked as if they had suffered a significant loss.
"This... was just a small matter, yet a High-level Talisman Paper was wasted!!!"
Seeing their grief-stricken expressions, Yun Ran almost doubted if those things actually belonged to her.
Who knows when these people will break their habit of feeling distress over things in others’ pockets!
"It’s just a piece of talisman paper, no need to be so heartbroken, especially since I encountered some trouble this time and consumed quite a bit.
Prior to that, I had plenty of such talisman papers, grabbing a large number at once. You guys are overreacting, don’t you have them?"
Yun Ran’s words, like sharp blades, struck another wound on their already injured hearts.
Even Elder Kang suddenly didn’t want to speak, nor did he wish to look at Yun Ran any longer, too exasperating.
Certain things just can’t be compared, comparisons only leave you feeling cold and dejected.
What they regard as treasures are nothing but expendables to others, to whom could they complain!
"Eh, why are you all silent, are you inherently not talkative?"
If it wasn’t for Yun Ran’s face still showing a hint of juvenile charm, Elder Kang and his group might suspect that Yun Ran said it intentionally.
To so accurately hit on their vulnerabilities, either she’s truly stupid, or she’s genuinely crafty.
But Yun Ran’s face is incredibly deceiving.
At the same time, they were unwilling to believe they could be fooled so thoroughly by a little girl.
Therefore, they preferred to believe Yun Ran was just a spoiled kid completely unaware of the value of resources.
"Little Fellow Daoist Yun, I wonder if you could help introduce your master?"
Originally, their intention was to persuade Yun Ran to obediently hand over the things they wanted, perhaps they would spare her life due to her youth.
But now, whether Yun Ran’s belongings or her clearly spoiled persona, Elder Kang and his group evidently abandoned their previous thoughts, not daring to be as outright aggressive as before.
Hearing the cautious probing in Elder Kang’s voice, Yun Ran almost burst into laughter.
If these people knew that from start to finish there was no master, and she was the sole performer in the whole act, they might die from sheer frustration.
But for now, this act must continue, so Yun Ran could only maintain her innocent and bewildered look.
"But, my master is in seclusion, otherwise he wouldn’t have sent us out to gain experience, however, right now I can contact several of my sect companions.
If you want to meet them, I can bring them to Moonlight City."
Yun Ran was now within these people’s sights, many of her actions were under their surveillance.
Before she found the remaining two copper mirrors, she needed a reason to stay in Moonlight City without arousing suspicion from Elder Kang and the others.
Hence, bringing other people here could perfectly cover her intention to remain in Moonlight City.
Thinking she could achieve her aim using these people’s personal motives, Yun Ran felt more and more that she truly is a talent!
Elder Kang just thought for a moment, exchanged glances with the others, and quickly reached a consensus.
"Since Little Fellow Daoist Yun has said so, that’s wonderful, there will be a grand event in Moonlight City soon, you can let your companions come here to broaden their horizons."
Whether they broaden their horizons is unimportant, as both parties have their own goals, this is the most decent excuse.
Yun Ran immediately nodded, "Alright, I’ll contact my sect companions."
Saying that, Yun Ran took out another Sound Transmission Talisman from her bag.
"Arrive in Moonlight City as soon as possible!"
As soon as Yun Ran finished speaking, the talisman paper automatically burned.
The people in the room originally thought they knew enough about Yun Ran’s possessions.
But upon seeing Yun Ran take out another talisman paper, especially one rumored only to exist, the Sound Transmission Talisman, they were still somewhat dumbfounded.
At a remote little town, Ginsengfruit had already been nearly driven crazy by those kids.
Indeed, anyone taking care of kids would go nuts, even if he wasn’t a real human.
Now, receiving the Host’s sound transmission, Ginsengfruit suddenly felt it was heavenly music, and the eyes that were tiring finally brightened up.
Great, he was finally liberated, he never wanted to care for kids again!
