Cannon-Fodder Heiress Turns the Tables by Fortune-Telling-Chapter 219 - 218: Ghost King, Time for a Snack!
Chapter 219: Chapter 218: Ghost King, Time for a Snack!
The man watched Yun Ran with no intention of signing and felt somewhat anxious.
This tract of land was handed down through generations in his family, yet no matter how many times it was given away / sold for cheap, it always found its way back to their possession.
Now, it was their branch’s turn to inherit this land, and he, with the thickest blessing of fortune, was allocated this plot.
The calamity he faced this time was surely brought by the curse on this plot of land; he didn’t want to be the master of this land at all.
If he didn’t get rid of this land soon, he might really not live much longer.
The lady, Yun Ran, before him could save them, she must have the capability; perhaps, if the land were handed over to her, it could really suppress this sinister curse.
The man didn’t feel at all that giving Yun Ran this cursed piece of land as gratitude was like repaying kindness with enmity.
This land, after all, was worth more than a billion. Even though he had his own ulterior motives, Lady Yun, in reality, also profited substantially.
Luckily, Yun Ran didn’t know what he was thinking, otherwise, she might have truly experienced another eye-opening moment of disbelief.
Yun Ran cast a half-amused glance at the man, then took the pen and, with a big flourish, signed her name.
Ginsengfruit watched Yun Ran sign so quickly it didn’t have time to stop her: [Host, didn’t you think this guy had ulterior motives? Why did you sign so readily?]
"Curse? Can it compare to my Life Chart that Heavenly Dao despises? Debt does not oppress one with its weight when it’s excessive. Besides, if something is given for free, why shouldn’t I take it?"
The man, watching Yun Ran sign, finally breathed a sigh of relief, unaware that Yun Ran had known his intentions from the start.
"Now I understand why that person said these people are born with sin."
She hadn’t met the others yet, but the two she had seen already allowed her to make a judgment.
These people, it’s not necessarily that they had already done bad things, but rather, their moral compass was skewed from the start, the kind that would betray without any guilt given the chance.
These people of prominent status, with good life fortunes, perhaps also supported by powerful masters from Xuan Sect, have stronger Qi Fortune than ordinary people, no wonder they became that person’s targets. freeweɓnovēl.coɱ
Yun Ran, holding the contract, prepared to return to the hospital room, but suddenly, a cold sensation shot up from the soles of her feet.
A palm-sized wisp of black mist slowly wound around her calf, quickly forming into web-like strands, and began to expand towards her whole body.
Even Ginsengfruit was dumbfounded: [Host, isn’t the retribution for your greed coming a bit too fast?]
She had just finished signing when the curse caught up with her.
Any ordinary person entangled by such Evil Qi would be facing a dreadful outcome of both personal and financial loss.
Just as the black web creeped up to the position of Yun Ran’s heart, Yun Ran reached out and grabbed the wisp of black mist.
The look on her face was disgust incarnate.
"I thought it would be some formidable curse, is that all?"
"Ghost King, time for a snack!"
The Female Ghost King, at a crucial moment, firmly stayed by Yun Ran’s side. Now the benefits were coming.
[Here I come, Dark Master~]
During the entire process, only Yun Ran could see the Female Ghost King, looking as satisfied as if she had eaten a snack, with a burp, and then after a thousand thanks, withdrew.
Ginsengfruit: ...
Right now, it really wanted to know, if the person who had been so eager to rid themselves of the cursed ancestral property saw how simply the Host had neutralized the curse, would they feel like spitting blood.
[Host, this curse was resolved a bit too easily, wasn’t it? Are the Dark Masters these great families worship just useless?]
After disposing of the Evil Qi, Yun Ran picked up the contract, ready to head to the sickroom.
As she walked, she said, "Of course it’s not that simple. That strand of Evil Qi was just a mark attached to the curse. To make that piece of land usable again, it still needs to be cleansed.
This might be a bit troublesome for others, but I am from Qingfeng Temple, after all. When it comes to purifying places not easily cleansed, we are the professionals!"
Back when she was only five years old, she started to follow her elders around for training, accumulating a wealth of experience. Not to mention, she now has Nine Yang Grass on hand.
Yun Ran pushed open the door to the sickroom, and Gu Yuan suddenly opened his eyes. Seeing that it was Yun Ran who entered, he closed his eyes again and deeply fell asleep.
Yun Ran: ...
She must be very trusted by him, to see her and fall back asleep in seconds.
The news of Yun Ran’s awakening spread rapidly after she showed up.
The Tan Family soon came knocking, and upon seeing Tan Chengbi, she remembered that she had struck someone who looked exactly like him before.
However, she didn’t feel much remorse. Even with Tan Chengbi here, she would not apologize.
She immediately spoke first to gain the upper hand: "I did kick someone, but they deserved it, and I won’t apologize for that!"
Tan Chengbi was taken aback; he clearly had not received the news of Yun Ran attacking someone.
Oh, no, that’s not right. It’s not that he didn’t receive the news, rather any news about that person would directly be redirected to his parents.
Tan Chengbi wasn’t dumb. He quickly guessed who Yun Ran had kicked before. Even if that person was his brother, their relationship wasn’t all that deep.
At least, not deep enough to cause him to have a dispute with Yun Ran. And to say nothing of the fact that Yun Ran had the backing of Young Master Xie behind her, he’s not foolish.
These past few days, he had also been dealt many blows, but obviously, what concerned him more was Yun Ran.
"Do you feel alright? If you need anything, just let the doctors and nurses here know."
Without the expected situation, Yun Ran felt a little awkward, thinking that she might have really been a bit too petty.
"It’s okay, I’ll recover slowly. I should be fine very soon."
Though Yun Ran was wrapped in bandages all over, one could tell from her voice and actions that she was indeed doing fine.
Tan Chengbi finally breathed a sigh of relief, then asked, "Someone who annoyed you enough to make you want to kick them must have brought it on themselves."
Yun Ran sized up Tan Chengbi, making sure that he was speaking sincerely and not just trying to placate her.
The grievance she had felt before due to that similar face dissipated in an instant, realizing her anger was misdirected at a completely different person was not right.
"Exactly, I am very reasonable, I definitely don’t bully others for no good reason."
"These days, quite a lot has happened, oh right, I have a little favor to ask of you."
With those old folks around, even if they aren’t so obedient, the things that have to be done will still have to be done, and it’s not up to someone who has been unconscious for quite some time like her.
For Tan Chengbi to come to her for help, it seems that it has to be something to do with the Helian Manor.
