Chapter 302 - 301: Iâm an Invincible Pretty Teenage Girl! (2 Updates)
"Yun Ran, youâve got some nerve, daring to harm your own people!"
Just moments ago, they could feel that this female Evil Ghost truly wanted to kill them all.
They had never dreamed that the iron law of the Special Administration Bureau would one day become their life-saving talisman.
Yun Ran raised her hand and flicked her fingers lightly.
Mo Zhi immediately released her grip on the other partyâs neck respectfully and then obediently retreated to Yun Ranâs side.
Yun Ran continued to laugh carelessly, "Are you injured? Whereâs the evidence?"
Wan Ji was completely dumbfounded by this scene. He couldnât help but rub his eyes and took another look at Mo Zhiâs feet hovering in the air.
She was clearly floating over there; if he wasnât mentally strong, he would have fainted by now.
No wonder when the higher-ups heard that people from the Special Administration Bureau were coming, they were so serious in instructing them not to offend these individuals, or else they would not be able to handle the consequences.
But just hearing it, he didnât have much of a concept. Now that he had seen it with his own eyes, he realized how shocking it was.
The thoughts he had been tangled about just a moment ago, he had to unconditionally lean towards Lady Yunâs side now.
Wan Ji immediately moved closer to where Yun Ran was, signaling with his actions that he was Yun Ranâs loyal guard.
Ginsengfruit saw Wan Jiâs movement, pursed his lips with some disdain, but didnât say anything and obediently drank his soup.
The four from the headquarters originally planned to talk with Yun Ran, giving up the benefits offered by the Murong Family was something they really couldnât bear.
If they could take down Yun Ran and find something on her, even Director Xie would have nothing to say.
But they hadnât expected Yun Ran to be so slippery.
Then they recalled the recent events at the Hai City Branch and Director Xieâs actions in this half of the year, they quickly understood everything â they had been played.
The person in charge glanced at Yun Ran deeply and then turned to leave, the other three snorted coldly and followed suit.
Ginsengfruit muttered softly, "I knew it would end like this, just a total waste of our dinner time."
Yun Ran also felt a bit awkward.
It was all because the people from headquarters were too observant, it made her feel embarrassed to play her hand. She felt stuck, and it was really upsetting.
Seeing that she was not needed anymore, Mo Zhi obediently returned to her temporary dwelling.
When they had finished eating and Wan Ji left, he was extremely careful.
"I thought he was so brave, with hardly a change in expression. It turns out he was scared too. Host, letting him see Mo Zhi directly, he wonât have nightmares tonight, right?"
"You still have the mood to worry about others? Didnât you see those people from headquarters staring at you for a good while? I just gave them a loss of face, be careful they start targeting you."
Ginsengfruit: ...
"Host, Iâm not scared like that. Can you please rein in your wicked sense of humor? Iâm a child now; scaring children, how are you any different from Wolf Grandma?"
Yun Ran poked Ginsengfruitâs head: "Youâre the Wolf Grandma. Iâm the eternally youthful and beautiful young girl!"
Ginsengfruit immediately covered his head with his hands; ever since he transformed into Little Fatty, the Host has been especially fond of poking his head, how annoying!
The few from headquarters returned to their own tent camp, each face dark enough to start a dye workshop.
"Minister, are we really going to let that little girl demean us like this?"
"Who could have imagined Deputy Director Xie had such an ace up his sleeve? No wonder he turned the Hai City Branch upside down in just a few months!"
"That girl, sheâs too wicked, not only does she have a Magic Artifact like Little Paperman, but sheâs also got Evil Ghosts around her that we canât make heads nor tails of. She wouldnât be some Evil Cultivator, would she?"
...
For those who have never been on the losing end their entire lives, how could they bear such a situation as they all began to vent.
The one addressed as Minister, Duan Shouyuan, remained silent and did not join their complaints.
Of course, he didnât stop them either. Since they had already fallen out with each other, and it was quite possible that the Little Paperman was spying on them nearby.
They didnât care anymore. Who doesnât have a couple of people they dislike? Whatâs the harm in cursing someone out?
After a few complaints, they felt better, but they also keenly sensed that something was off with the Minister.
"Minister, whatâs wrong?"
Duan Shouyuanâs gaze became distant: "Originally, I just wanted to probe Yun Ranâs background, to see if she is as formidable as the rumors say.
But you all saw the outcome; she is even more formidable than the rumors weâve heard.
You all know about the affairs of the Northwest Branch. This girl even knows purification magic; I wonder, just how profound is the sect behind her?"
The Xuan Sect may seem to still be glorious, but only those with actual say in the Mystical Sect know.
After that great catastrophe, the Xuan Sect began to decline.
Many of the Xuan Sectâs legacies were lost during that time, some through the chaos, but others were deliberately suppressed.
When the Xuan Sect was powerful, many of its people didnât treat ordinary humans with respect, causing the deaths of many innocents.
Among those ordinary people, there were clever ones. During the catastrophe, they became catalysts and took the chance to seek revenge.
If not for the fact that the Xuan Sect is now in decline, constantly restrained, they would not care so much about the resources of the Murong Family.
All they do now is to gain more say.
What Yun Ran had shown Duan Shouyuan, he believed, could not have been taught by any other Mystical Sect.
Therefore, he suspected that Yun Ran might belong to some hidden Mystical Sect aristocratic family.
The others, hearing Duan Shouyuanâs words, suddenly understood his meaning.
"Minister, youâre not really believing that the great catastrophe truly led to powerful figures from the Xuan Sect going into hiding, and Yun Ran is their inheritor, are you?"
Duan Shouyuan also found this speculation far-fetched but he would rather believe Yun Ran has inherited from a hidden Mystical Sect than believe she is an Evil Cultivator.
"She is Deputy Director Xieâs person; there canât be any issues with her identity."
Upon hearing this, the others were also disheartened. They knew very well what kind of person Xie Xuzhi was; not only was he ruthless and cunning, he would never allow someone with an unknown or problematic background close to him.
Subordinates, worried that the Minister might make concessions to win over Yun Ran, quickly said: "Even if she is the heir of some hidden Mystical Sect, sheâs not walking the same path as us. She has no desire in her eyes."
