Cannon-Fodder Heiress Turns the Tables by Fortune-Telling-Chapter 972 - 968: You’ve Really Messed With Me Now!

Chapter 972: Chapter 968: You’ve Really Messed With Me Now!

No matter how harsh the environment, such a situation should not occur, and Dragon Spirit immediately heightened its vigilance.

As for Mo Zhi, who had already merged into the ground, Dragon Spirit temporarily forgot about her. After all, she had already died once, so she shouldn’t die again.

Soon, Mo Zhi appeared at the Two-headed Resentful Spirit Snake’s stronghold, and it wasn’t as gloomy and dark as imagined.

The entire space, instead, looked exceptionally clean, with even a slight fluctuation of spiritual energy.

This made Mo Zhi forget about her cravings and start inspecting the surroundings.

Soon, she sensed the source of that spiritual energy within a stone wall, and with a wave of her hand, she pierced through the wall.

A jade-white and adorable Little Jade Tripod appeared in front of Mo Zhi’s eyes. With just one glance, Mo Zhi felt that Master would definitely like it.

She immediately reached out, intending to take down the Little Jade Tripod.

However, as soon as Mo Zhi’s hand touched the Little Jade Tripod, she felt a burning sensation.

Ever since becoming the Ghost King, regaining her consciousness, Mo Zhi had felt pain rarely; ordinary Magic Artifacts couldn’t harm her.

When Yun Ran sealed her away, it was the first time Mo Zhi realized that even as a Ghost King, she wasn’t invincible and all-powerful.

Afterwards, Mo Zhi became very cautious, even downright timid.

Facts proved that Mo Zhi’s caution was correct; she never suffered any setbacks again, and her progress was as rapid as a rocket.

Currently, Mo Zhi was a Quasi-Ghost Emperor. If she returned to the Ghost World, she’d be the sovereign of a Ghost City.

Besides in front of Yun Ran or Dragon Spirit, where she’d be slightly intimidated, she was basically invincible in front of others.

This situation made Mo Zhi pout, feeling a bit unlucky.

Her strength was obviously so formidable, so why did she always encounter things that could restrain her!

Those other Evil Ghosts hadn’t even reached the level of a Ghost King. In many people’s eyes, they were incredibly powerful, even unshakeable.

Yet she was unlucky; no matter how powerful, she couldn’t act freely.

Alas!

Mo Zhi looked at her fingers, which were emitting smoke.

If she wasn’t a Ghost Cultivator, without Merit Golden Light Protection, she’d probably have been dispersed by this unknown Jade Small Tripod by now.

"What on earth is this thing? The Two-headed Resentful Spirit Snake regards this place as its stronghold, yet there’s something here that can restrain resentful energy?"

Mo Zhi felt her brain wasn’t functioning well.

This setup was truly puzzling to her.

Mo Zhi immediately took out the talisman Yun Ran had given her earlier, and the moment the talisman paper was exposed to air, it started to burn automatically.

Yun Ran, who was eating at the time, heard Mo Zhi’s "Hey, hey, hey" voice.

In no time, a water curtain wobbled into appearance.

Mo Zhi and her current environment appeared gleamingly before Yun Ran.

Xuan Chu had been called to eat by Ginsengfruit as well.

As he was gnawing on chicken feet, he wasn’t surprised at all when the water curtain appeared before him.

Back then, Huaiyi True Master had used this trick, and he had even learned a bit from it.

Xuan Chu put down the chicken feet in his hand and looked at the water curtain: "What’s going on?"

Mo Zhi said "hey, hey, hey" a few more times, and the water curtain on her end finally stabilized, revealing Yun Ran who was eating.

Mo Zhi immediately became a bit excited and directly showed her fingers.

In a very aggrieved manner: "Master, my hand got hurt, it’s this Little Jade Tripod!"

If someone else had said this, people might think the speaker was being overly dramatic.

Getting a finger injured isn’t a big deal!

But, the speaker was Mo Zhi, a Quasi-Ghost Emperor and Ghost Cultivator, which made it highly unusual.

Yun Ran was also a bit surprised, not expecting that this world created by a spatial rift could have something that could easily harm Mo Zhi.

"What Little Jade Tripod, let me see!"

Mo Zhi immediately moved aside to reveal the entire Little Jade Tripod.

Xuan Chu curiously looked over; to the naked eye, that Little Jade Tripod was a piece of jade white, looking like it was made from very precious jade.

Yet, this small Jade Tripod could harm Mo Zhi?

Then it wasn’t just some ordinary thing; perhaps it was a Magic Artifact they didn’t know of.

Yun Ran looked at Xuan Chu: "Do you recognize it?"

Xuan Chu shook his head: "I’ve never seen it, but for this Jade Tripod to appear in this place, surrounded by so many resentful spirits... it likely isn’t a simple Magic Artifact."

The talisman paper’s effect time ended, and the water curtain began to blur.

Yun Ran could only say to Mo Zhi: "You deal with other matters first, I’ll send someone to deal with this Jade Tripod later."

Mo Zhi nodded repeatedly.

The water curtain completely vanished at this moment.

If Yun Ran weren’t injured, she’d truly want to personally see what that Jade Tripod was.

Xuan Chu, however, seemed like a worm in Yun Ran’s belly.

Directly speaking: "You’re injured, better to heal properly. I’ll personally go and take a look!"

After considering it, Yun Ran agreed.

Xuan Chu hurriedly finished his share of the meal and then set off in a rush.

Accompanying him was another Little Paperman to guide his way.

All Little Papermen’s senses are shared; what one knows, all know.

The Little Paperman that previously went with Dragon Spirit knew the route, so the one now guiding Xuan Chu naturally knew it too.

Although Mo Zhi was curious about the Jade Tripod, since Yun Ran said someone would handle it, she put all her effort into the other resentful spirits.

Soon, Mo Zhi found the source of the resentful spirits—a giant jar.

Despite not being human, the stench emitted by the jar made Mo Zhi wish she had no nose.

"What on earth is this thing? At a glance, these are clearly man-made!"

Just as Mo Zhi was about to deal with the jar, before her hand could touch it, the complex symbols on the jar repelled her several steps back.

This immediately irritated Mo Zhi, considering she was a Quasi-Ghost Emperor!

Getting hurt by that Jade Tripod was embarrassing enough, and now even an ugly jar could make her look ridiculous!

This really didn’t do her any favors, as if being a Quasi-Ghost Emperor was common.

"You’ve truly provoked me!"
