Cannon-Fodder Heiress Turns the Tables by Fortune-Telling
Chapter 1239 - 1235: Vast and Pure Power
Yun Ran’s rant was not yet finished when she was presented with a scene that made her jaw drop in surprise.
As those people chanted for the Heavenly God’s blessing, countless specks of light flew out from the pillar of light that shot up from the ground.
The specks of light scattered densely, with those closer to the altar receiving more, and those farther away receiving less.
Yun Ran, standing at the farthest distance from the altar, also received a few specks of light.
Initially, Yun Ran thought this so-called Heavenly God’s blessing was just boastful talk, but now she truly felt a vast and pure energy.
Yun Ran’s eyes flashed slightly, obviously not expecting that this so-called Dark Hall truly worshiped such a powerful master.
She used to think these Black Robed People were just making excuses to cause trouble, but she didn’t expect they actually had some skills.
The Immortal Sound soon disappeared, and the pillar of light rising from the ground also gradually dissipated.
Those kneeling on the ground were reluctant to get up for a long time, each trying hard to absorb the scattered specks of light.
Unlike others who were filled with fervor, Yun Ran’s expression was much calmer.
She looked like an outsider, completely detached from the others.
The smell of blood gradually faded and disappeared completely with the gentle night breeze.
Yun Ran’s gaze returned to the direction of the altar; under the moonlight and starlight, the layout seemed somewhat familiar.
Thinking of keeping a low profile, Yun Ran restrained her urge to step forward for a closer look.
As time passed, those scattered light specks were finally absorbed completely.
As dawn crept in, Yun Ran, the only one standing, appeared particularly dignified.
When the healer arrived and saw Yun Ran standing alone, he paused for a moment.
Perhaps due to having taken Yun Ran’s blood, the healer clearly felt a bit guilty.
But thinking about having used the best Healing Medicine, and that with a night’s time, Lord Divine Envoy’s wounds should have completely healed, he should not discover anything amiss.
With this thought, the healer took a deep breath, and a slight smile appeared on his face.
"Lord Divine Envoy, why are you here? Are you feeling any better?"
Yun Ran turned her head to see an old man with greying hair and sunken cheeks.
His fingers were tinged with blue-black, obviously someone who had long been in contact with poisons.
But what surprised Yun Ran the most was his eyes, with no envy for others receiving the light specks, rather showing some unwilling irritation.
"Shouldn’t this question be asked by me, as the Divine Envoy? Why are you here at this moment?"
The healer was visibly taken aback by Yun Ran’s words, but quickly masked it.
However, Yun Ran noticed it clearly, and her heart skipped a beat. It seemed she asked a question she shouldn’t have.
However, Yun Ran remained unflustered; given her special status, she did not need to defer to anyone.
Even if the other party was a bit suspicious, it was not enough to doubt her identity immediately.
As expected, the healer asked in confusion, "I came to check their bodies to prevent infeasibility of those who received the blessing, causing backlash. Lord Divine Envoy, aren’t you here for that?"
Yun Ran: ...
She truly had no idea she was here for this, but silence is golden indeed.
"The matters of this Divine Envoy are not for you to inquire!"
Yun Ran showed no pleasant expression, yet the situation seemed entirely normal.
Even the healer across from her showed no reaction, understanding that if the Divine Envoy was easygoing, that would be a bigger issue.
"Yes, yes, I misspoke. Please, Lord Divine Envoy, don’t be angry."
Yun Ran didn’t spare even an extra glance at the healer, nor did she at anyone else, before turning around to leave.
The healer dared not show any dissatisfaction, especially since he had secretly taken Yun Ran’s blood earlier, even if it had been absorbed by the altar.
Still, he dared not take risks; if the Divine Envoy stayed too long and discovered the secret of the blood on the altar, none present could bear the wrath of the Divine Envoy.
In the past, there was a case of a Divine Envoy who directly wiped out an entire stronghold.
Yun Ran returned to her previous residence at the stilted building.
The location was the best in the entire village, and the view was equally excellent.
At this moment, the sun was rising slowly, and Yun Ran, standing in the small building, could see far into the distance.
Unfortunately, the Little Paperman was sent to watch over the Dragon Spirit; otherwise, it would have flown into the air to help her survey the terrain here.
Building such an altar here signifies some unique terrain or layout nearby was significant.
If she hadn’t felt the pure power integrate into her body, and if the Qingfeng Temple’s Prohibition on her body hadn’t moved at all, she might have concluded this was merely an evil technique for taboo use.
Who would’ve thought that such a Forbidden Technique involving sacrificial blood could truly summon the ’blessing’ of a powerful being?
Considering the vast collection of books in the Qingfeng Temple’s Book Collection Tower, Yun Ran truly had never seen or heard of such a technique.
Yun Ran gently exhaled a breath and murmured to herself, "It seems Junior Master was right; the outside world still holds many techniques long lost in the river of time.
Only by continuously venturing out and documenting these techniques can Qingfeng Temple’s legacy endure forever."
With this thought, Yun Ran quickly cast a Magic Spell only learned by the Direct Lineage of the Qingfeng Temple.
The Qiankun Bag, originally bound to her and impenetrable by anyone else, suddenly flashed with a bright light.
The Qiankun Bag was reactivated.
Before Yun Ran had regained her memory, this bag had been Sealed, appearing as merely decorative.
Now, with her memory restored, she could retrieve items from it again.
After rifling through it for a while, Yun Ran soon found a somewhat incomplete Turtle Shell among the pile of items.
The Turtle Shell, freshly retrieved, appeared dark and dull, obviously a lifeless object.
If seen by others, they would only regard it as junk.
Yun Ran placed the Turtle Shell in her palm, and with her other hand, swiftly forced out one of the light specks that had integrated into her body.
The extricated light speck seemed utterly confused, flying out dazedly, swaying a couple of times, trying to find another resting place.
Sensing the light speck about to fly back toward her, Yun Ran waved her hand, directly embedding it into the incomplete Turtle Shell.
