Cannon-Fodder Heiress Turns the Tables by Fortune-Telling-Chapter 1061 - 1057: Divine Artifact Fragment

Yun Ran was left speechless by these words, and so were the others.

They were well aware of this Daoist in the long robe’s personality, appearing amiable, yet always keeping people at arm’s length.

The reason he came to the Wang Family to watch over Young Master Wang was merely because of a fellow disciple’s invitation.

Moreover, there was another reason unknown to others—he had his own people to avoid.

The butler’s eyes flickered, feeling inexplicably that this individual might be ingratiating to an unworthy extent.

Yun Ran couldn’t quite see through the current situation either, unsure whether this person was sincere or continuing to test something.

But since the other party had spoken up, Yun Ran naturally couldn’t refuse; she also wanted to see what the person was really after.

Yun Ran nodded casually.

Upon seeing Yun Ran’s nod, the Daoist in the long robe immediately showed a delighted expression, then hurriedly left.

The others, seeing the Daoist in the long robe’s departing figure, surprisingly felt a trace of envy.

Whether they envied him for leaving this somewhat dangerous, somewhat suffocating chamber.

Or envied him because he had something valuable to ’offer’ to the mysterious Lord Divine Envoy.

But everyone, without exception, was extremely quiet, not daring to make a sound.

The butler shifted his gaze, evidently finding it strange to just stand there waiting foolishly.

He immediately turned around, brought a chair from a short distance, and placed it beside Yun Ran.

Then, he respectfully stepped back, not daring to show any unnecessary expressions or movements.

For those with insight, even the most critical people would not dislike them.

Moreover, Yun Ran wasn’t a particularly critical person, and she looked at the butler again with a hint of satisfaction.

After Yun Ran sat down, she casually took out a White Jade Bottle from her person, which contained some special medicine she had refined earlier.

Upon seeing the bottle flying toward him, the butler was a bit surprised.

But he reached out and caught the bottle steadily.

In his ear came Yun Ran’s obviously altered voice: "You’re quite sensible, this is your reward!"

For most people, hearing the word "reward" usually felt a bit uncomfortable.

However, if the word "reward" came from someone one needed to look up to, it became an honor.

Clearly, the butler did not expect to receive a reward just for doing his duty.

His heart was suddenly filled with excitement.

At the same time, he felt more and more that the Lord Divine Envoy before him was indeed different from those he had encountered before.

Just then, the Daoist in the long robe hurriedly returned.

In his hands, he held a fragment of some unknown object, which from a distance seemed like something picked from a heap of junk.

The fragment, especially, looked incredibly ordinary on the outside.

"Lord Divine Envoy, please look, this object was given to me by a descendant of a prominent family, who said it was their family heirloom..."

At that time, he had merely saved that person on a whim, yet that person insisted on repaying and forcibly gave him this object.

Back then, the Daoist thought that person was being grateful.

It wasn’t until later, when he was targeted and tracked by many people and got injured several times.

Did the Daoist in the long robe gradually realize he seemed to have obtained a troublesome hot potato.

If this thing were truly a treasure he could command, being tracked wouldn’t matter much.

However, he had used many methods, still unable to decipher what this fragment was.

The only certainty was that indeed there were some energy fluctuations on this fragment, and his Compass could only detect a little.

Oh, speaking of the Compass, the currently shattered in two Compass, was still lying on the ground.

The Daoist in the long robe felt a bit upset; that Compass had accompanied him for many years...

Now, it had been effortlessly split in half by the Lord Divine Envoy, and he seemed to have no chance for reprisal.

Sigh~

Yun Ran was unaware that the Daoist in the long robe was now lamenting over his Compass.

This time, she didn’t wait to use the Heavenly Eye to examine what this fragment was, she directly reached out to take it.

The fragment in her hand felt very heavy, indicating it should be a metal-like object.

However, on top of this fragment, there were attached materials not belonging to it, resembling rust.

The Daoist in the long robe had been very careful in researching the fragment, fearing damaging what was on it.

Yun Ran had no such qualms, since it was something given to her, breaking it wasn’t a big deal.

After all, she never lacked treasures.

Furthermore, being a master in Artifact Refining, if it broke, she could just repair it.

Yun Ran squeezed it with force, and a crack instantly appeared on the fragment.

The crack’s edge gleamed with a metallic luster, appearing extremely sharp.

Just by looking, one could foresee that if flesh and blood touched it, it would definitely lead to another bloody conflict.

Yun Ran’s hand, wearing a pair of inconspicuous-looking gloves, effortlessly avoided such trouble.

Immediately afterward, the fragment’s true appearance was revealed as dazzling light emanated from it.

In Yun Ran’s eyes, flashed a trace of surprise and a realization.

If this truly was the essence of the fragment, then it certainly deserved to be regarded as a family heirloom.

The Daoist in the long robe, still with a face of shock, looked at the fragment in Yun Ran’s hand.

The light was too piercing, causing people to not dare harbor any sinister thoughts, not even the slightest covetousness.

Yet he still felt curious, what exactly was this thing.

"Lord Divine Envoy, could you tell me what this is?"

Previously deciding to offer the treasure to Yun Ran was partly because he could never understand it.

The other reason was thinking that if this object were gone, he might find some peace.

"It’s a fragment of a Divine Artifact."

Although currently there was only this piece, making the original form of the Divine Artifact indiscernible.

Yet Yun Ran could confirm that this Divine Artifact was not of the same level as her Heavenly Thunder Order or the previously ’picked up’ Divine Cauldron.

This Divine Artifact was the type that only individuals who had achieved the Divine Status could command.

However, it’s unknown how this Divine Artifact ended up in such a state.

Upon hearing that the fragment before him was indeed a Divine Artifact fragment, the Daoist in the long robe felt a chill down his spine.

Not only did he feel no regret, but he even felt a slight relief.

Indeed, such a thing was not something he could control or possess.

Especially recalling how many times he was tracked yet remained unharmed.

He realized it was purely due to good luck.
