The fortune telling was so accurate that I accidentally accumulated a huge amount of merit!

Chapter 1011 The Little Ones Are Always the Best

Long Ling's indifference and Xuan Chu's subtle reproach made Xuan Shi, who was standing cautiously beside them, completely believe one thing.

That is, if it weren't for these two people today, everyone here, including those from the General Association, would be dead.

Even he himself didn't realize that at this moment, Long Ling and Xuan Chu had surpassed the people of the General Association in his heart.

Their attitude towards Long Ling and the others naturally became one of exceptional respect.

Even the tone of their voices became much more intimate.

"Mr. Long, Mr. Xuan, you two have worked hard today. Leave the rest to us. You should go and treat your injuries first."

Xuan Chu knew when to stop. Seeing that these people had been fooled by Yun Ran and Long Ling, he knew that going any further would be too much.

He nodded immediately: "Okay, let's treat the injuries first. If you have any more trouble, just let me know!"

Back in the courtyard, Long Ling's composed facade crumbled instantly, and she looked at the filth on her body with utter disgust.

"To think that I, the mighty Dragon King, would be in such a sorry state, Yun Ran owes me a huge favor now!"

Seeing Long Ling complaining there, clearly trying to save face, Xuan Chu pretended not to see it.

He understands the principle of "seeing through something but not saying it."

"The little paper doll already prepared the water for you, so you should go and wash up quickly!"

Long Ling snorted coldly and went straight to the bathroom.

Xuan Chu couldn't help but shake his head. He also didn't know how Long Ling had developed such an awkward and arrogant personality.

However, today's events were clearly effective, bringing them closer to finding the Heavenly Book and returning home.

When Yunran returned to the courtyard, the other three corners of the divine cauldron had been purified and restored to their original pure white appearance.

Ginseng Fruit watched intently as the purification array was being purified, noting that much of the Yin energy that had seeped into the divine cauldron had already been extracted.

The little paper figure was also busy running around, driving back the evil energy that wanted to escape the protective circle.

Soon I'll be busy again, kneading the excess Yin energy into small balls to prevent the protective circle from becoming too full and damaging it.

The people in the temple all looked rather listless; to the uninitiated, they looked as if some evil spirit had drained their life force.

When the little paper doll saw its owner return, it rushed over immediately, its face full of excitement.

"Master, you're finally back~"

If it weren't for the severe shortage of manpower, they would also want to stay by their owner's side.

Yun Ran reached out and tapped the little paper doll's forehead: "Don't worry, with your master personally taking care of things, is there anything I can't handle?"

As she spoke, Yunran took out the bronze mirror that had already been formatted.

The little paper figure looked at the bronze mirror with great curiosity. Just looking at it, it seemed no different from an ordinary bronze mirror.

Having enjoyed a life of luxury with Yunran, he used the finest paper dolls for everything.

The little paper figure's gaze as it looked at the bronze mirror was not one of delight; at least, in its heart, the mirror was not as clear as a glass mirror.

However, something that its owner specifically retrieved must not be something simple.

The little paper figure looked left and right, then circled around in front of the bronze mirror a few times. No matter how you looked at it, there was nothing unusual.

"Master, is there anything special about this bronze mirror?" In the little paper doll's eyes, there was never a secret that it couldn't ask its master.

These magical artifacts, crafted from the soul of their master, are not subject to the concept of betrayal.

Yun Ran truly dotes on the little paper doll, and she spares no expense in showing it the curiosity on its face.

He immediately channeled a stream of profound energy into the bronze mirror, and the mirror instantly emitted a bright light.

Then, the little paper figure saw itself in the bronze mirror. It was no longer the advanced little paper figure, but the original little paper figure.

That is their true form, which looks exceptionally simple.

The little paper figure didn't react much. After all, it wasn't the kind of creature that forgot its origins or despised its original form.

But Yunran was in a somewhat awkward position, since she had initially intended for the paper dolls to be made to help her with chores.

Moreover, the paper dolls can be upgraded on their own in the future, and then they can be changed to look exactly what they want.

Therefore, when she was making the paper dolls, she did not treat them as works of art.

In addition, her own aesthetic sense is quite peculiar; otherwise, she wouldn't have been so drawn to Tan Chengbi's strange works when she was in Japan.

At this moment, Yunran felt a similar sense of guilt to some parents who felt they hadn't given birth to a child who was more beautiful or smarter.

The little paper figures were completely unaware that Yunran felt guilty for not making them look better.
Instead, she gestured excitedly back and forth, showing no sign of inferiority or discomfort whatsoever.

"Master, this bronze mirror can actually reflect my true form!"

Yunran, who had initially felt somewhat guilty, felt her heart melt upon hearing the little paper doll's words.

Although she had never raised a real child, at this moment, she understood the feelings of those mothers who posted pictures of their babies online.
Her eyes immediately shone with maternal warmth. Indeed, one's own child is the best; it's so heartwarming.

Seeing the little paper figure 'posing' there, Ginseng Fruit also came over out of curiosity.

When he saw the paper doll's true form, there was even a hint of nostalgia in his eyes.

At that time, he did not have his own body; he was still bound to Yunran by his soul.

Looking at the original appearance of the paper figure now, it gives one a sense of how time flies.

Suddenly, the ginseng fruit reached out and shoved the little paper figure away.

"Alright, you've seen enough. Now it's my turn to take a look."

Little paper doll: ……

The boss is really too much! How could he do this?! Waaaaah...

The ginseng fruit looked curiously at the bronze mirror, wondering what its true form looked like.

Yunran was also curious, because when she found the ginseng fruit, it was a magical artifact.

While watching the commotion, she was pushed off a cliff, and the ginseng fruit, in an unnecessary attempt to save her life, transported her to this world within the book.

To be honest, Yunran only knew that the ginseng fruit was a system from a higher world, and that was all she knew.

In the bronze mirror, a small figure emanating a faint blue light stared wide-eyed.

The ginseng fruit raised its hand, and the little person followed suit, their expressions and movements identical except for their appearance.
