Cannon-Fodder Heiress Turns the Tables by Fortune-Telling-Chapter 983 - 979

The expression on the small facial features of the Little Paperman was very complex at this moment,

although it was made of paper, it was different from ordinary paper figures, especially after being refined by Heavenly Thunder.

This body was impervious to swords and spears, immune to water and fire, with immense strength, and speed comparable to lightning.

Yet even with such attributes, it could still feel the burning sensation from the halo around Er Dan.

Protected by such formidable power, the Little Paperman dared not imagine how strong Er Dan would be once it hatched.

At the thought that it might not be able to beat Er Dan in the future, the Little Paperman’s head drooped down suddenly.

The Dragon Spirit had no idea about the Little Paperman’s complex feelings at the moment; seeing it hovering around Er Dan,

it earnestly reminded, "Don’t get too close, lest you get hurt!"

Little Paperman: ...

Already annoyed, now being reminded again, wasn’t this adding insult to injury!

The Little Paperman glared at the Dragon Spirit, then turned and flew away, needing some peace and quiet!

The Dragon Spirit, looking at the enraged Little Paperman, impulsively blurted out the complaint it often made before, "Hey, what a temper, just like your master!"

The Little Paperman, already flying away, was immediately displeased upon hearing this and charged back like a bullet.

Planning to have a life-or-death duel with the Dragon Spirit!

"Talking bad about the master again, I’m going to fight you!!!"

Dragon Spirit: ...

It really didn’t provoke anyone, how come all the little creatures Yun Ran raised had such big tempers, this truly was impressive ~

After a bout of fighting, the Dragon Spirit ended up with several bruises on its face, while the Little Paperman lay limp on the ground, filthy all over.

This scene left Xuan Chu utterly dumbfounded, causing him to forget about breaking up the fight altogether.

By the time the Little Paperman and the Dragon Spirit finished fighting, both looking equally battered, Xuan Chu felt that his ’stop fighting’ wasn’t appropriate anymore.

Mo Zhi, however, was calm; she’d seen the Dragon Spirit and Little Paperman brawl not ten, but at least eight times, so she was used to it.

Seeing the fight was over, Mo Zhi then said, "It’s already dawn outside, the rain has stopped, shall we go down the mountain?"

The Dragon Spirit took out a mirror, looked at the injuries on its face, and gave the Little Paperman a fierce glare.

Then said, "Go pick up those fragments with patterns and bring them down the mountain!"

As for the injuries on its face, later on, they would be blamed on those resentful spirits.

Having vented its anger, the Little Paperman immediately went to pick up the fragments upon hearing this.

Had one not witnessed the way the Dragon Spirit and Little Paperman fought, with the Little Paperman now so obedient and capable, who would have thought that the Little Paperman had such a big temper. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

Xuan Chu once again felt that he’d seen the world.

As for the Divine Cauldron still sealed in the other corner by talisman paper, Xuan Chu hadn’t forgotten about it either.

"Let’s take this back for Yun Ran to see before saying more."

The Dragon Spirit nodded, such things didn’t need to be specially mentioned to it, anyway, it wasn’t someone who cared about gains and losses or liked vying for credit.

As for Er Dan, there was no way to take it now, it had to be left here for the time being.

The Dragon Spirit glanced at Mo Zhi, "For now, let it stay in your Ghost Realm!"

Mo Zhi looked at the halo surrounding Er Dan and, feeling very apprehensive, did not want to get close; placing it in her Ghost Realm was acceptable.

The group did a simple cleanup, but instead appeared even more pitiful.

Anyone who saw them would definitely think they had been through a fierce battle, it was absolutely miserable ~

The Divine Cauldron was carried by the Little Paperman, flying up to mid-air, intending to directly send it back to where Yun Ran and the others stayed.

Flying so high and so fast, it wouldn’t be seen by anyone anyway.

The Dragon Spirit looked at the grime on itself, finally decided to ignore it, and started heading down the mountain.

Mo Zhi shrank the Ghost Realm that previously enveloped the vicinity, leaving just enough space for Er Dan.

The underground space that could still hold up before immediately collapsed.

This was already the smallest loss, so no one minded.

The air in the mountain forest, after the rain, was notably fresher.

The Dragon Spirit looked over the surroundings once more, not sure if it was just an illusion.

It felt as though the dead and lifeless atmosphere around the plants and trees had diminished quite a bit.

Seeing Xuan Chu still following them, the Dragon Spirit looked at him ambiguously: "You were almost seized by that monster, why not go back and recuperate earlier, what are you following me for!"

It still had tasks assigned by Yun Ran to complete and couldn’t waste time on Xuan Chu.

Xuan Chu’s eyes wandered, unable to meet the Dragon Spirit’s gaze.

"Um, well, earlier I encountered those Dark Masters, I told them that I was your senior brother..."

Upon hearing this, the Dragon Spirit suddenly bristled.

"Ugh, have you no shame, calling me junior brother when I’ve lived for thousands of years!!!"

Previously, it sought apprenticeship, and if it weren’t for Yun Ran being raised by the master, it wouldn’t have stepped back to let a little girl act as senior sister ahead of it.

Now fine, even Xuan Chu wanted to take advantage of it.

Ha!

Did they think it was unable to wield a blade anymore, or that it was truly easy to bully?

Seeing the increasingly dangerous look in the Dragon Spirit’s eyes, as if it wanted to tear him apart, Xuan Chu immediately yielded.

"I didn’t mean it that way... You know me, back in Heavenly Dao Village, I’ve been the senior brother of this generation, it was just a slip of the tongue saying I was your senior brother, really wasn’t intentional!"

Even if it wasn’t intentional, the Dragon Spirit’s heart was still feeling heavy, and it really didn’t want to see Xuan Chu anymore,

otherwise, it felt it couldn’t control its temper.

"You know, it’s just pretense, don’t mind..."

Seeing the Dragon Spirit’s temper seemingly abate, Xuan Chu slightly breathed a sigh of relief, though inwardly thinking.

Not only Yun Ran and the Little Paperman had big tempers, even the Dragon Spirit wasn’t small either.

But these words, Xuan Chu dared not utter, only changed his tune, "I’ll be sure to apologize properly later, but for now, priorities matter.

Let’s head down the mountain together, to avoid any flaws later on; who knows, we might even cover for each other then, as you’re not truly human after all."

The other things the Dragon Spirit didn’t care about, but the last sentence did hit upon something it was most worried about.

No one knew exactly what situation the world was in, who knows if someone could really see through its true identity in the future, and that would be troublesome!
