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

Chapter 1039 is far too much to use!
Xuan Chu felt as if he had stumbled into a scene he shouldn't have entered. At this moment, Yun Ran was acting a bit too crazy.

Fortunately, he had been wearing a black robe, and now only his eyes were visible, perfectly concealing the expression on his face.

Anyone with eyes could tell from Xuan Chu's attire that he was in cahoots with Yun Ran.

The elderly stranger standing opposite them frowned even more deeply at this moment.

One man in black robes was already enough to make him wary, and now another one has arrived, and this second one doesn't look weak either.

Yun Ran hadn't expected Xuan Chu to arrive so quickly, instantly ruining her plan to let loose and act recklessly.

There's nothing we can do; she's just really concerned about saving face.

Clearly, Yun Ran had forgotten that she had activated the water curtain mirror earlier.

Long Ling and Ren Shenguo had already seen her somewhat unrestrained behavior.

Xuan Chu didn't know how he could tell Yun Ran was embarrassed from the fact that she was completely wrapped in a black robe.

Then, it let out the same kind of raucous laughter as Yunran, as if doing so would make it seem like it belonged with the group.

Yunran: ...

Dragon Spirit: ...

Ginseng fruit: ...

Even the little paper figure couldn't help but laugh, but it quickly covered its mouth, afraid that it would also let out a cacophony of laughter.

In that case, everyone will be in an awkward situation.

The unfamiliar old man opposite them was looking at Yun Ran and the others with a strange expression.

The look in their eyes clearly suggested that Yun Ran and the others had some serious illness.

This displeased Yun Ran, but at this time, it was inconvenient to start an internal conflict or settle scores with Xuan Chu.

But the look in that old man's eyes doesn't mean Yunran can tolerate it!

"What are you looking at! Look again and I'll gouge your eyes out!"

At this moment, Xuan Chu finally realized that his laughter, which he had just tried to join in with, had been somewhat unnecessary.

But just now, he really hadn't thought that far ahead; he was only thinking about not making Yunran feel so awkward.

I thought... well, whatever, let's just say it was his fault.

The strange fire doesn't care about these two groups of humans; they are currently in a state of temporary truce.

They only know that now is the best time for them to strike, otherwise they will be in big trouble.

Yunran was unaware that in the hearts of these strange flames, all humans were considered bad people.

Therefore, even though Yunran's interruption gave them a chance to catch their breath, they still regarded Yunran as an enemy.

A small flame was seen heading straight for Yunran.

Xuan Chu felt his heart leap into his throat: "Be careful!"

The remaining strange flames also attacked the old man opposite him at the same time.

Perhaps it was because the old man was holding a bronze mirror that the strange flames judged him to be the most dangerous person.

Therefore, most of the strange fires were directed at him.

As for Yunran, she was less of a threat, so there were far fewer strange flames coming towards her.

Xuan Chu immediately took out his magic weapon to resist the strange fire.

However, those strange flames were completely unaffected by the magical artifacts. They dodged left and right, and as long as they didn't touch the artifacts, their movements were free.

Even the little paper figure was being chased by a tiny flame. The little paper figure, who had forgotten the pain of its wounds, suddenly felt a burning pain all over its body again as it looked at the strange fire chasing after it.

"Master, help me~~~"

Yunran: ...

She had thought the little paper doll was really skilled and daring to try and catch another cluster of strange fire, but it turned out to be so embarrassing!
Xuan Chu carefully avoided the attack of the strange fire, but because he was wearing a long robe.

When you try to dodge quickly, the hem of your clothes can't be dodged in time.

Before long, Xuan Chu's clothes were ignited by the strange fire.

If it were a regular fire, even if it caught fire, it wouldn't matter; a couple of taps would be enough to put it out.

However, this strange fire was exceptionally stubborn. Even though Xuan Chu tried several methods, he was unable to extinguish it.

Now Xuan Chu understood why those people attacked by the strange fire looked so miserable in the water curtain mirror.

It's not because they're stupid enough not to extinguish the strange fire on their bodies.

However, this strange fire is impossible to extinguish, which is incredibly frustrating.

Xuan Chu immediately unbuttoned his clothes and then tore off the outer robe he was wearing.

And with his other hand, he pulled out another new black robe from his bag.

The two actions, one pulling and one spreading, were completely simultaneous.

Then, Xuan Chu threw away the black robe that had been set ablaze by the strange fire with all his might.

Xuan Chu donned another new black robe.

From beginning to end, Xuan Chu's face was never revealed, and even some of his physical characteristics were not shown to anyone.

The movement was very smooth, and it only took a few seconds to complete.

But this move was absolutely awesome.

At least the dragon spirit and ginseng fruit watching from behind the water curtain mirror couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

If this were made into a movie, this action would definitely become a classic scene.

The black robe, thrown to the ground, was beyond saving; the moment it hit the ground, it was instantly engulfed by flames.

In the blink of an eye, the black robe that had fallen to the ground turned into a pile of ashes.

These strange flames all possess their own consciousness; perhaps they saw that their companions' actions in attacking Xuan Chu were useful.

Immediately afterwards, all the other strange flames began to imitate the one that attacked Xuan Chu, and started attacking the clothes of everyone present.

Of the old stranger's companions, only a few were still alive and well to begin with, and now they were in even worse shape.

One by one, they glared hatefully at Xuan Chu, who was dodging and weaving like a shaman.

If it weren't for Xuan Chu, those strange flames wouldn't have so insidiously changed their methods of attacking them.

Unfortunately, Xuan Chu was unaware of their thoughts; otherwise, he would have truly felt wronged.

Nowadays, the most relaxed people in the entire valley are probably the old man with the bronze mirror and Yunran, who keeps throwing out talismans.

Although Yunran had been chased and made quite disheveled by those fire-type creatures before.

But more importantly, it was because she was really too poor at that time and didn't have that much resource to waste.

But things are different now; she has plenty of good stuff in her possession.

Even the talisman paper made primarily from demon cores is used up; there's simply more than enough!
She prevented those strange flames from getting even a fraction of a step closer to her, and she didn't seem to care at all.
