Cannon-Fodder Heiress Turns the Tables by Fortune-Telling-Chapter 1040 - 1036: The Captured Flame

Xuan Chu went to remove the needles for those people, but Dragon Spirit didn’t follow.

He still needed to keep an eye on the situation over at the Water Curtain.

At that moment, heart-wrenching screams echoed from the Water Curtain area.

Those who had reached the ’safe position’ were once again attacked by the Abnormal Fire.

If the Abnormal Fire were attacking ordinary people now, they’d likely be burned to ashes.

But even for a Dark Master with decent strength, facing the Abnormal Fire is quite a handful.

Yun Ran seemed to see a reflection of herself in the way those people fled in panic.

This isn’t good at all!

Mo Zhi watched the pressure around Yun Ran slowly decrease and immediately felt a bit tense.

"Master?"

Yun Ran glanced at Mo Zhi askew: "Shut up!"

At this point, whoever speaks, she’d lash out at them!

Mo Zhi quickly shrank back; an angry master is somewhat terrifying, she didn’t dare provoke.

Little Paperman looked at Yun Ran and then at the Abnormal Fire outside, acting as its master’s considerate little servant.

Little Paperman instantly understood what its master was thinking - recalling some unpleasant memories!

"Master, look, there’s a small Abnormal Fire over there, I’ll sneak up on it!"

The Abnormal Fires in this valley aren’t all alone; who knows how they came up with the idea of teamwork.

In any case, all those Abnormal Fires spread out, and there are always one or two that are left alone.

Little Paperman had been eyeing one small Abnormal Fire, only the size of a flame, for a long time.

Although it had some fear of these Abnormal Fires, discussing danger separately from size is somewhat absurd.

If it’s one big Abnormal Fire, Little Paperman would immediately turn and run.

But if it’s just a tiny one, Little Paperman felt it could handle a showdown.

Yun Ran looked at the eager Little Paperman and then at the Abnormal Fire it chose, which was only the size of a pinky finger.

She suddenly felt a sensation she couldn’t quite describe.

It was like sometimes, the Little Paperman she had raised seemed rather mischievous.

The Abnormal Fire was so small, evidently just observing the battle, but it ended up being targeted by Little Paperman.

If this applied to people, others would scold them for picking on the weak!

However, when dealing with enemies, one shouldn’t harbor mercy just because the enemy is weak! 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞

Yun Ran looked at Little Paperman with satisfaction: "Go, I believe in you!"

Little Paperman immediately swooshed out of Mo Zhi’s Ghost Realm.

The small flame, still watching the battle, was completely unaware that danger was near, hanging motionless in its original spot.

Little Paperman sneakily flew over, and then the Electric Flower quietly wrapped around its finger.

The small flame eventually sensed something amiss.

Just as it planned to turn and see which reckless fellow dared approach it...

"Snap!"

Little Paperman struck a pose as if catching a firefly, its hands entwined with Electric Flower closed together.

And then, at lightning speed, returned to Mo Zhi’s Ghost Realm.

Small flame:...

Bold, truly bold, some unknown fellow dared to capture it!

The other Abnormal Fires, still locked in a mind game with the unfamiliar old man and the copper mirror, suddenly noticed their small companion had vanished.

In that split second of distraction, the largest ring of Abnormal Fire was locked in by the copper mirror.

Yun Ran leaned closer, seeing in the copper mirror a fist-sized fire baby struggling fiercely.

But it was locked in by the copper mirror, unable to move.

As soon as the copper mirror drained its resistance, it would absorb it.

The other Abnormal Fires, seeing their companion locked in, went crazy, attacking everything around them.

Soon, the flowers, grass, and trees near the center of the valley were reduced to ashes.

The barren ground revealed what the original surface should have looked like.

Even those large stones, due to the Abnormal Fire’s effect, crumbled at a light touch.

Now, there was no place to hide in the center of the valley.

Those Dark Masters, who could still escape, continued to sustain injuries one after another.

If they didn’t have Magic Artifacts supporting them, they would soon collapse too.

Mo Zhi was startled seeing those people burned to death by the Abnormal Fire, their souls consumed as well.

They couldn’t even become ghosts!

Out of the corner of her eye, Mo Zhi saw the Little Paperman holding the small flame, inexplicably starting to feel pain all over.

She subtly moved her body; of course, Mo Zhi floated.

So, as her figure floated farther away, it didn’t seem abrupt.

The Abnormal Fire desperately struggling in Little Paperman’s hand was utterly furious, wishing it could burn away everything obstructing it!

"Master, this small flame is a bit wild!"

Little Paperman was incredibly strong, but the small flame was struggling fiercely in its palm, and it was becoming hard to control.

Originally cool and air-conditioned-like Ghost Realm was slowly heating up due to this tiny flame.

"It seems these Abnormal Fires are indeed quite formidable, and even the copper mirror isn’t simple!"

Saying this, Yun Ran took out the Demon-locking Tower, having not used it much despite contracting it for so long.

The struggling small flame now sensed an intimidating force.

It quickly calmed down, thinking it could avoid calamity.

But unfortunately, Yun Ran wouldn’t spare the small flame she went through trouble to capture.

The Demon-locking Tower directly sucked the small flame inside, turning transparent as if revealing all.

Yun Ran could clearly see the small flame, though seemingly free to fly within, could not reach the end.

"Indeed a great treasure~"

Yun Ran was just pleased to have captured the small flame.

Over on Dragon Spirit’s side, the Artifact Spirit of the Demon-locking Tower, originally confined to his little dark room, somehow escaped again.

Angrily ordering Dragon Spirit: [Tell that woman to throw the Abnormal Fire out!!!]

Dragon Spirit:...

Goodness, a contracted Artifact Spirit dared to command him, the Dragon King!

"What are you, to dare order me!"

The Artifact Spirit of the Demon-locking Tower was constrained by Dragon Spirit’s powerful Divine Soul and couldn’t break free.

Though it could wander at will, unafraid of the small dark room, being unable to escape made it furious.

[I hate Abnormal Fire! Kick it out!!!]
