Chapter 178: 177 I see that you have an extraordinary bone structure... (Extra 3)

Yun Ran hadn’t reacted yet, but the Ginsengfruit was quick to speak: "Host, in this novel world, how can there still be such ancient Evil Qi Lands that are over a thousand years old?"

"How else could it be? It must be because the Mystical Sect in this world is useless, without a leader. Unlike my world, where those places are where disciples of the Qingfeng Temple gain experience after they graduate. Nowadays, finding those powerful Yin Sha Lands is harder than ascending to heaven."

For other matters, Yun Ran might not get involved, much less talk nonsense. But when it comes to evolving in Yin Sha Lands, she has plenty of experience and could even offer some advice.

Taoist Xia felt downhearted. Purifying these places was difficult. His family had been striving for this for a long time with minimal success. Although the detailed reasons for doing so are no longer remembered, the younger generation of his family still firmly keep their mission in mind.

He had finally found an Array capable of purification in a damaged ancient book, with Nine Yang Grass being one of the most important ingredients. "So that’s the case. I’m familiar with this. I’ll give you a manual with guaranteed spiritual wisdom later."

Taoist Xia’s facial expression did not show any change, but his dim grey eyes were staring straight in the direction of Yun Ran.

The forefathers of the Han Family had not thought of seeking help from others, but what they got was nothing but ridicule. Either they were called fools or accused of fishing for fame. Few offered to help. That’s also why their family no longer shared this burden with outsiders, quietly going about what they needed to do.

Perhaps because the burden was too heavy, or perhaps because he felt Yun Ran was a very reliable person who, even if unable to help, would not laugh or mock, that he spoke so candidly.

Upon hearing Yun Ran’s words, in that moment, Taoist Xia truly felt reassured. "Is that so? Then I’ll have to trouble you when the time comes." He did not pin all his hopes on a young girl a generation younger than himself and calmly accepted Yun Ran’s kindness.

Returning to the hotel, Yun Ran stored away the Nine Yang Grass properly. She was really exhausted from the day’s torment and immediately fell asleep as her head hit the pillow.

The next day, just as the sky lightened, she was woken up by an urgent series of phone calls—it was Yun Jinyang calling. "Big brother, is something the matter?"

The voice from the other end of the phone was as calm as ever, but Yun Ran still sensed a hint of unrest: "Ranran, are you in Yinghua Country right now?"

When Yun Ran left Huannan, she hadn’t informed the Yun Family of her whereabouts. Now that Yun Jinyang knew she was in Yinghua Country, it must have been revealed by the photos she had taken of Yun Qing earlier. She wasn’t panicked though.

Ever since the Yun Family knew she was helping the Xie Family, almost every request from her was granted; they wouldn’t actively interfere in her affairs. The obvious tension Yun Jinyang just showed made Yun Ran think for a moment. She guessed that Yun Qing must have sought help from the Yun Family because something had happened to him. "Is it Yun Qing in trouble?"

Yun Ran guessed what had happened so quickly, and Yun Jinyang was not surprised. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have called Yun Ran. "Yun Qing tried to get a tiger’s skin and has now been injured by the tiger, but the Xiyeno Family is watching me..."

Yun Ran understood, this was asking her to find a solution covertly. Infighting within the Yun Family was one thing, but if outsiders bullied a member of the Yun Family, whether it was Yun Jinyang or herself, neither could stand the disgrace.

Yun Qing probably isn’t having an easy time right now, and who knows what this self-proclaimed clever second miss is thinking. Does she really believe that even enemies will become friends for the sake of profit?

The grudge between the Yun Family and Xiyeno Family over the overseas company can truly be described as a fierce battle, already escalating to the point of hiring killers.

"Alright, leave this matter to me."

After hanging up the phone, Yun Ran calculated Yun Qing’s eight characters. There was indeed a major disaster looming, but no danger to her life; she could live to eighty-eight.

[Host, isn’t this a case of being too clever by half? That Yun Qing, sinister and cunning. I haven’t forgotten it was her who incited the Si Family’s people.

Now that she’s in trouble, she knows to ask for help. I wonder where she got the guts to cooperate with those seeking Yun Jinyang’s life. This is a calamity that will linger for a thousand years.]

"Perhaps she feels she’s an unappreciated genius, hence the desire to stir up some ripples. She seems to have forgotten that what this world doesn’t lack is geniuses."

Knowing Yun Qing was not in any mortal danger, Yun Ran no longer panicked. She leisurely got up, washed up, had breakfast, and then prepared to find someone.

As for Taoist Xia, he had more than enough means to protect himself, not to mention that this time, she had left two Little Papermen on guard.

Walking through the ecological garden, all the little animals who had awakened their spiritual wisdom stared curiously at Yun Ran.

[This woman smells so nice, has she prepared delicious food for us?]

[But she looks so fierce, she didn’t buy vegetable buns for us last time. I don’t like such a stingy woman.

However, if she’s willing to give us treats today, I might reluctantly shake my little butt for her.]

[Eh, why is she walking away? Isn’t she here to feed us?]

[I knew it, she’s a stingy bad woman!]

...

Although Yun Ran had carefully stored away the Nine Yang Grass, she inevitably carried the scent of Nine Yang Grass after being in contact with it.

These little creatures, newly awakened to spiritual wisdom, had truly keen noses and could detect such a scent.

Too bad for them, she was stingy; she herself was reluctant to lavish the Nine Yang Grass, how could she possibly feed it to these little fools.

Halfway through her walk, an elderly monk with kindly features blocked Yun Ran’s path. However, as soon as he approached, the aura on Yun Ran made him very uncomfortable.

It’s said that first impressions are about visual chemistry, and the old monk felt an inexplicable dislike for Yun Ran, stealthily stepping back two paces, with the smile on his face fading slightly.

He planned to take Yun Ran as a young disciple, solely to acquire the magic of controlling the Little Papermen from her. Liking her was not important.

The old monk’s face lit up with a kind and benevolent smile again: "Miss, I see that your bones are extraordinary..."

Yun Ran sized up the old monk and couldn’t help rolling her eyes when she heard his words.

Does this person not surf the internet? This is such an old cliché; these days, even professional swindlers keep up with the times.

"No money!"

With that, Yun Ran sidestepped him, ready to continue forward.

The old monk was never a patient man, but he thought, after all, she was supposed to be his disciple.

A disciple with some capabilities at that, which is why he tried to be gentle before resorting to force. He didn’t expect her to be impervious to persuasion; now, he couldn’t blame himself.

He would have to capture her and subject her to severe interrogation.

If all else fails, he would extract her soul. He refused to believe he couldn’t obtain the magic he coveted.
