Chapter 462: Chapter 461: Who Isn’t Afraid of Heavenly Thunder?
Xie Xuzhi has some understanding of Yun Ran; if it’s not important, she wouldn’t come to him.
"Alright, what do you need me to do?"
The little paperman narrated the message Yun Ran had it deliver word for word, even mimicking the exact tone.
Yun Ran’s tone wasn’t great, but Xie Xuzhi dared not express any opinion.
Ever since he found out Yun Ran activated the Coiling Dragon Formation, personally tore an Azure Dragon, and used the Dragon Core to revive him.
Xie Xuzhi’s expectations from Yun Ran had diminished to hoping she doesn’t personally tear him apart, as a mere taste of the living-dead experience is enough.
He knew Yun Ran had been commissioned to handle matters in the Northeast, but he didn’t anticipate the scale this matter has become.
Though having been cursed for so many years, Xie Xuzhi hadn’t died, there must be competent and reliable people around him.
"Got it, I’ll arrange it. Tell her not to worry."
Yun Ran received feedback from the little paperman but still felt uneasy.
She looked around left and right, surprisingly not seeing the cloud always watching her, a trace of sly joy appeared on her face.
Xuan Chu had already contacted the master and informed him of the situation here.
Turning his head, he saw Yun Ran’s sneaky look, he also looked up, immediately understanding what Yun Ran felt gleeful about.
"The evil energy and death energy here are too heavy, our two living beings here have completely hidden breaths..."
As a person from Heavenly Dao Village, a genuine Heavenly Dao Envoy, Xuan Chu felt he shouldn’t talk about loopholes.
Yet, he knows Yun Ran is sly like a monkey, even if he doesn’t say it, she’d soon discover the loophole on her own.
Yun Ran shot Xuan Chu a puzzled look, her eyes unscrupulously saying ’Did you take the wrong medicine?’
Xuan Chu: ...
Surely, being a good person is hard, and it’s especially tough in front of Yun Ran!
Yun Ran didn’t care what Xuan Chu thought, she reached into her bag to pull out the puppet containing Little Uncle’s spirit.
In this dangerous and thrilling moment, having Little Uncle’s spirit puppet can give her courage.
Upon seeing the spirit puppet, Xuan Chu’s features immediately contorted, pointing at Yun Ran: "You, you, you..."
He now understood why Heavenly Dao kept an eye on Yun Ran; it dared carry a soul from another world directly.
The wooden puppet pulled out appeared dead but sensed a foreign aura recognizing it.
It naturally stopped pretending, broke free from Yun Ran’s grip, and leapt to the ground.
Soon, its feet started dancing, skipping back and forth.
Xuan Chu, feeling shocked and slightly annoyed, inquired: "It’s wooden, right? But why is it afraid of the cold?"
Knowing her details, Yun Ran did not hide anything.
"This is my Little Uncle’s spirit puppet, you can call it a spirit puppet, it’s more advanced than my little paperman."
It came through great trials to find me, and when it entered this world, it got torn apart, it was tragic."
Later by sheer chance, it attached itself to Third Young Master Wang, if not for my Little Uncle’s spirit puppet, he would’ve died."
Now, this spirit puppet has lost some memories, it’s a bit foolish, I’m afraid it’ll wander off, so I sealed it in this wooden puppet."
Xuan Chu opened his mouth, but in the end, he didn’t know what to say.
Heavenly Dao Village had records of visitors from afar, others just heard about them.
His luck seemed quite ’good,’ having encountered two simultaneously.
The records seemed different from his real experience of witnessing and feeling.
At least now, he didn’t have much intention of killing Yun Ran and the half-wit spirit puppet.
"Now you trust me and tell me everything!"
Yun Ran indifferently waved her hand: "Oh, just knowing you won’t kill me, otherwise I’d hide far away."
Xuan Chu: ...
This explanation is better left unsaid, though true, it’s rather annoying.
Yun Ran reached to lift the wooden puppet, then peeled a Nine Yang Grass leaf and started wrapping its feet.
Xuan Chu genuinely didn’t want to talk to Yun Ran anymore, he pulled out his phone and recorded prior events from the empathy.
These will eventually become annotated records in the Book Collection Tower at Heavenly Dao Village.
Both of them minded their own business, ignoring each other, waiting for help to arrive.
Meanwhile, Elder Gong and the team finally located the villa area, unlike other snow-covered places.
Here there was birdsong and floral scent, a scene of eternal spring.
Minister Duan warily scanned everything ahead: "Elder Gong, this place definitely has a problem, seems like another world from its surroundings."
Elder Gong’s face darkened, feeling he’d underestimated, finding the situation more troublesome than imagined.
Now, he couldn’t assure everyone there could leave alive.
After considering, Elder Gong spoke: "If things go wrong, I’ll hold them off so you make a retreat, remember, at all costs, make sure you leave alive!"
For Elder Gong to say such words, Minister Duan and the accompanying Special Administration Bureau elites, faces changed.
Everyone instantly got anxious: "Elder Gong..."
Elder Gong raised a hand to stop further speech: "Obey orders!"
Minister Duan clenched his fists, reluctant, but could only grit his teeth and reply: "Yes!"
The little paperman didn’t understand much of these unyielding words, seeing everyone saying yes, it flew over too.
Exclaiming: "Yes~"
The tense atmosphere broke with the little paperman’s words.
Elder Gong didn’t like this atmosphere either: "My earlier words were worst-case scenarios, perhaps not as bad as imagined."
Then, he spotted the little paperman flying nearby: "Forgot about you two, I’d like to make a request."
Someone wanting to discuss matters made the little paperman feel its responsibility suddenly increased substantially.
It immediately imitated Yun Ran’s move of folding hands behind, showing a steady, reliable appearance: "Go ahead~"
Elder Gong pointed behind to the team: "If we run into trouble later, hope you can use electrical sparks to help them retreat."
The little paperman thought they’d be given major tasks, turns out just this.
"Sure, no problem."
With the little paperman’s help, Elder Gong felt relief, these Xuan Sect people tainted with evil energy, how could they not fear Heavenly Thunder.
