Cannon-Fodder Heiress Turns the Tables by Fortune-Telling

Chapter 1284: Chapter 1280

However, the people of Divine Sword Manor didn’t show any dissatisfaction because of the Nine-headed Ferocious Beast’s display of dominance.

On the contrary, the extreme terror that enveloped them amplified their fervent enthusiasm.

As for Yun Ran, she was entirely overlooked by them, and they even subtly felt that her presence here was a bit of an eyesore.

The Nine-headed Ferocious Beast looked down contemptuously at those who couldn’t help but tremble with fear.

"If you want to make a contract with this god, you must abide by my rules, otherwise..."

The people of Divine Sword Manor were quick to understand. The fear was real, and the uncontrollable shaking was also real, but it didn’t stop their minds from working very quickly.

One by one, they nodded eagerly as if pounding garlic, almost desperate to kneel to the Nine-headed Ferocious Beast to declare their stance.

Yun Ran suddenly felt she couldn’t bear to look. She had been worried before that these two sides wouldn’t blend well, but it turns out that without her, they were doing just fine.

The Nine-headed Ferocious Beast hadn’t experienced this feeling of controlling everything for a very long time.

Now, it couldn’t help but feel a wave of fear; if it had stopped Yun Ran from using it as a bargaining chip before, it wouldn’t have had such a good day.

Dragon Spirit leaned against the wall, watching the scene unfold, and almost burst out laughing.

Although he had a good relationship with Yun Ran, seeing her stumble still made him want to air his teeth a bit.

Dragon Spirit didn’t laugh out loud, but the noise he made still caught Yun Ran’s attention.

Yun Ran directly rolled her eyes at him, then threw another eye roll at the Nine-headed Ferocious Beast.

Damn, not a single one around is worry-free; it’s best just out of sight, out of mind!

"The rest of the matters you handle yourselves. I have something to do and will leave first!"

Yun Ran took out the Array Plate that could bind the Nine-headed Ferocious Beast to Divine Sword Manor for a hundred years, then turned and left.

By the time the people of Divine Sword Manor reacted, Yun Ran and her party had long disappeared.

Looking at the Nine-headed Ferocious Beast still occupying most of the courtyard, the first reaction of the people from Divine Sword Manor was to quickly contract it.

Lest some shameless people covet it. Although Divine Sword Manor had enough strength, but just in case.

Some people will stop at nothing to achieve their goals, even sacrificing many innocent lives.

Young Master Xue glanced at the ancient-looking Array Plate in his hand and felt that the contract should be made sooner rather than later.

He immediately said to the people behind him, "Arrange for people to closely watch all places immediately, also, send someone to guard this area, I want to contract immediately!"

The people who could come here with Young Master Xue were all his confidants and naturally followed his orders completely.

"Yes, I’ll go right away!"

The rest of the people didn’t need Young Master Xue’s instructions; they started to find their positions on their own, preparing to be the protectors for the upcoming contract.

The Nine-headed Ferocious Beast looked at these people who seemed so anxious and couldn’t help but find it ridiculous. However, since his purpose was to enjoy the offerings from Divine Sword Manor, he couldn’t be bothered to say anything more.

Yun Ran and her group had just left the outskirts of Divine Sword Manor when they sensed that the Contract Array Plate had been activated.

Dragon Spirit instantly raised an eyebrow. "These people are too impatient, don’t they know to find a quieter place for the contract?"

Moreover, from then until now, the whole process took no more than five minutes.

Little Paperman, sitting on Yun Ran’s shoulder, nodded repeatedly with its tiny head, indicating it agreed with Dragon Spirit’s remark.

It seemed that the people of Divine Sword Manor were a bit lacking in consideration.

Whether in Yun Ran’s heart, Dragon Spirit’s heart, or even Little Paperman’s heart, the residual souls of Ancient Beasts, though rare, weren’t that unattainable.

However, Ma San, who had been following behind them with a somewhat foggy mind, reflexively said, "Good things, if you’re too slow, they will indeed be snatched."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone’s eyes turned towards Ma San.

Dragon Spirit seemed to realize at this moment that there was a guy with minimal presence following behind them.

When several pairs of eyes looked over at once, Ma San suddenly shivered, and the previously dazed mind immediately cleared up.

Scared, Ma San immediately knelt down, raised his hand, and began to slap his own mouth: "Mas-... Master, I... I won’t dare to speak out of turn anymore..."

Dragon Spirit immediately looked at Yun Ran with a reproachful gaze, as if saying ’how have you become so stringent’.

Yun Ran was also speechless, but she obviously couldn’t explain what human rights meant to an old acquaintance from a thousand years ago in just a few words.

"Stand up, I’ll let it go this time. Next time, see more, say less!"

Ma San was almost scared to death; a servant like him dared to interrupt when his master was speaking.

If this were in the Dark Hall’s base, such behavior would have cost him his tongue at the very least.

Yet he never expected that such overstepping would be just lightly let off with such a simple phrase.

A feeling he couldn’t quite describe exploded in his chest, making him want to charge forward for Yun Ran, to fight and die without hesitation.

But this surging emotion made him unable to utter a single word; at that moment, he really hated his own most foolish mouth.

He couldn’t speak when he should and would speak out of turn when he shouldn’t.

Yun Ran’s carriage was being taken good care of.

At this moment, seeing Yun Ran and her group coming out, the person guarding the carriage paused slightly; wasn’t the auction not yet over?

But, as a servant trained by Divine Sword Manor, the one guarding the carriage didn’t dare show a hint of confusion on his face.

Before moving the carriage forward, he nodded and bowed: "Noble, take care~"

Yun Ran has never been stingy to those with foresight, taking out something meant for rewarding people and tossing it over.

"Thank you for the reward, Noble!"

If Ma San weren’t so obsequious in front, that servant of Divine Sword Manor who received the reward would have loved to rush over and be a human chair for Yun Ran.

When the carriage was only a small black dot in the distance, leaving behind a cloud of dust, the person’s bent waist hadn’t even straightened.

Until even the last tiny black dot was out of sight, immediately more servants gathered around.

"What did that noble reward you with? Show us!"

The person who received the reward tightly held onto what Yun Ran threw to him, only then did he straighten his back.

A look of impatience appeared on his face, while the other hand shooed away the others who gathered, like swatting flies.

"What’s there to see? Nothing worth seeing; what the noble rewards, even if it’s just a leaf, is precious. Do you deserve to see it?"

Having said this, he quickly stuffed the item into his bosom, blocking everyone’s view.
