Chapter 242: Chapter 241: Beaten Like a Dead Dog

Watching the Yang Family Master lying on the ground like a dead dog, Yun Ran kicked him with her foot to confirm that the guy was really in severe pain and had lost his strength.

However, she did not let it go at that. Such injuries, once he recovers from the shock, he would be able to move again.

To prevent this man from causing her trouble and disturbing her sleep at night, Yun Ran decided to put an end to it once and for all.

She walked over to the Yang Family Master, stepped on his ankle, brewed her strength for a moment, and once she found the right feel,

With a forceful stomp, the Yang Family Master let out another scream of agony, but it stopped abruptly as he passed out from the pain.

"Tsk tsk tsk, this is too weak, I was just getting started, and he already can’t take it."

As she spoke, she stepped on the ankle of the Yang Family Master’s other leg and applied force again. The Yang Family Master, already unconscious, just hummed a few times, clearly not waking up.

[Hiss~ Host, you are really cruel, but, I so admire you~~~]

Being flattered by Ginsengfruit, Yun Ran gladly accepted it. To be merciful to scum is to be cruel to those poor victims.

Now she too was one of the ’victims’, naturally, it was time for revenge and to settle grievances.

Yun Ran touched the Yang Family Master’s body, and finding no key to unlock the chains, she didn’t get discouraged and sat down in a clean place.

Despite her stomach still growling, it was already past midnight, and Yun Ran had no intention of looking for something to eat.

[Host, that second group of people who were watching you just now is not far from the entrance.]

Yun Ran didn’t care one bit and closed her eyes.

Just now, although she didn’t spend much time or effort, she felt that she had done enough for today’s activities and needed to rest.

Yet in her mind, she still spoke to Ginsengfruit: "No worries, let them watch if they want, in the end, I won’t be the only one suffering."

Ginsengfruit didn’t quite understand Yun Ran’s meaning.

Yun Ran continued to explain: "By beating up the Yang Family’s Family Head like this, if they want to pin something on me, they can’t find any evidence that I used Xuan Sect’s powers.

So, they can only keep it to themselves; otherwise, if they witnessed me beating the Yang Family Master like this without coming to help, then they would be considered my accomplices."

Ginsengfruit silently gave Yun Ran a thumbs up; its host really was formidable, having considered everything.

With the Yang Family Master’s limbs crippled by Yun Ran, she slept without any worries.

The man who had quietly followed the two gardeners into the dungeon through the tree entrance, upon witnessing Yun Ran’s ferocious methods, could not help but feel his heartbeat quicken.

Not until he saw Yun Ran lie down to rest, and the Yang Family Master lying on the ground, life or death unknown, did the man quietly exit from where he entered.

Taking out his phone to report to his superiors, his tone carried a trace of shock.

"Boss, that Yun Ran, she’s not just a Xuan Sect expert, but also a Martial Arts master, in just a few movements she turned the Yang Family Master into a dead dog. What should we do?"

The person on the other end of the phone was silent for a moment.

Then said: "Are you sure she didn’t use any Xuan Sect powers? Did the instruments detect anything?"

The man left to surveil Yun Ran spoke with certainty: "I am positive, she did not use the powers of the Xuan Sect."

The person on the other end of the phone still trusted their subordinate’s abilities and loyalty.

Thus, he only instructed: "Then you continue to keep a good watch on her, report immediately if there’s any problem."

After hanging up the phone, the man then returned to the Wang Family’s territory.

Even though it was already midnight, by all accounts, now should be the time for rest and recuperation.

Yet, on the turf of the Wang Family, Wang Qianyu and Zhou Ying were not sleeping; instead, they were still playing chess.

Seeing the man return, Wang Qianyu didn’t even lift his head but casually asked, "How did it go?"

The man looked up at Wang Qianyu then quickly bowed his head again, reporting in detail everything he had discovered today.

Wang Qianyu instantly dropped the white chess piece in his hand, his gaze towards the man carried a hint of a barely suppressed anger.

"You’re saying this Yun Ran, not only is she a Xuan Sect expert, but also a Martial Arts expert?"

The man nodded: "Yes."

Wang Qianyu’s expression suddenly changed.

It wasn’t because of Yun Ran’s abilities that he felt any fear.

He simply didn’t understand and was somewhat curious as to how the Xie Family could so easily find such talent.

Zhou Ying finally put down the chess piece in his hand: "It seems that our plans are likely to fall through."

Wang Qianyu’s face gradually grew grim; their trip to Hai City had been calculated.

But now, they had underestimated this young lady called Yun Ran.

"Who would have thought that she could smoothly handle the matter, so much so that there might not even be a need for the Xie Family to step in later."

Zhou Ying sighed: "Indeed, a Xuan Sect expert who is also a Martial Arts expert—this proves that the person is exceedingly cunning, capable, and has terrifying potential.

Not to mention she positioned herself as a victim from the start, and when she defeated the Yang Family Master, she was shackled at the limbs.

Under such circumstances, even if she had accidentally killed the Yang Family Master, there would be no grounds to say she was in the wrong.

She could claim her life was under threat, and such self-defense, under fair and just circumstances, cannot have any accusations forcibly pinned on her."

However, even if they were caught off guard, they couldn’t lose their wits over such a minor issue and obstinately persist; they could only wave their hands to signal their subordinates to retreat.

The next morning, Yun Ran woke up early.

There was no light in the dungeon, and the dim lamp was not enough for Yun Ran to discern the current time.

But thankfully, she had Ginsengfruit, her own timekeeper.

"Ginsengfruit, what time is it now?"

[Host, it is 7 AM.]

Ginsengfruit observed their host, who seemed to be in high spirits, then looked at the Yang Family Master still sprawling on the ground.

Unable to resist, it silently lit a candle for him—of course, with a bit of schadenfreude: Poor thing, your miserable days are upon you~

The Yang Family Master shifted his body slightly but didn’t move far.

It wasn’t hard to guess that he must have awakened at some point, but perhaps due to severe injuries, he wasn’t conscious for long.

Yun Ran approached and looked at the Yang Family Master, kicked him with her foot to turn him over from face-down to face-up.

Seeing the Yang Family Master’s deathly pale face at this moment, Yun Ran didn’t feel the slightest bit of guilt.

On the contrary, she weighed the whip in her hand, then viciously lashed it out, the whip slashing across his cheek all the way down to his chest.

The Haute Couture suit vest was torn, a hint of blood seeping through the white shirt beneath, which looked quite painful.
