Chapter 1083 Another stroke of bad luck

Once it was confirmed that those people in Lotus City had a glimmer of hope, the little paper doll's somewhat worried eyes immediately brightened.

But then, a hint of worry appeared on his dark face.

"Master, will their slim chance of survival pose any obstacle to you?"

The power to destroy a city is, even a fool would know, terrifying.

The little paper doll began to worry again, wondering what harm its master might suffer because of these complete strangers.

In its heart, no one in the world is as important as its master.

Yunran walked with light steps, casually picking a blade of grass and putting it in her mouth as she went.

His appearance didn't seem like he was about to face a major upheaval at all.

Just as Yunran was about to answer the little paper doll, suddenly, the ground collapsed.

Yunran had already taken a step forward with one foot, which landed right on top of the collapse.

Without any support from the ground, Yunran lost her balance when she stepped into the air.

Just as Yunran was about to fall whole into the collapsed pit, the little paper figure quickly flew over and steadily caught Yunran's foot as she lost her footing.

Yunran: ...

It was really Wu Yu’s mother who opened the door for Wu Yu, Wu Yu is home!
All she did was foresee that Lotus City was doomed, and then, by expending some of her own luck, she deduced a glimmer of hope.

This bad luck came way too fast!

Yunran felt frustrated again about her terrible fate.

If someone else with similar fortune-telling skills were to make such a prediction, they would at most choke on cold water.

When it comes to her, it's all bad luck and a lot of trouble!

With the little paper figure supporting her, Yun Ran finally managed to steady herself and then took a few steps back.

Looking at the huge, deep pit in front of me, I knew without a doubt that this must have been an accident.

Yunran had gotten used to it, but the little paper doll was still a bit angry.

It flew straight over, wanting to see what was going on with this deep pit, which had almost made its owner lose face.

Although falling into this deep pit wouldn't cause much harm, it would be extremely humiliating.

Soon, the little paper figure flew out of the pit, its face completely sullen.

“Master, that deep pit collapsed because of the corrosion caused by the underground river.”

There are several rivers in Lotus City, so it's quite normal for traces of an underground river to appear here.

Not to mention, the area surrounding Lotus City was originally mountainous terrain, and underground currents were also part of this terrain feature.

For Yunran, whose luck tends to wane whenever it weakens, such unexpected events within a reasonable range are as commonplace as eating and drinking.

"Go and fill this hole. It's a place with lots of people coming and going. If someone is unlucky enough to fall in, it will be terrible."

Not everyone has her ability to easily avoid such a crisis.

Moreover, the appearance of this deep pit was partly due to her.

If someone gets hurt as a result, she will have to bear part of the consequences.

"Yes, Master, I'll go right away!"

The little paper figure quickly found some huge stones and threw them all down.

After those stones were filled in, there were large gaps, so they did not affect the flow of the underground river.

Before long, the pit was filled in. The sun was slowly rising higher, and the temperature was starting to rise.

Although they were not far from Lotus City at this moment, Yun Ran could guess that her journey back would not be peaceful.

He immediately took out his black umbrella.

Fortunately, she wasn't someone who liked anything flashy, so even if others saw the umbrella, it wouldn't attract much attention.

The little paper doll wanted to go ahead and scout the way for Yunran, but it couldn't discover the unknown accidents.

It could only suppress its temper and stay by Yunran's side.

Fortunately, with the black umbrella's blessing, even though Yun Ran's luck had weakened considerably, it was still able to conceal part of her aura.

Those unfortunate events won't happen to her immediately.

The little paper figure breathed a sigh of relief when they finally entered Lotus City.

But clearly, it let its breath come in a little too soon.

The little paper doll, with its excellent hearing, quickly picked up some useful conversations from the chatter of people eating at the breakfast stalls.

“Something strange happened in the East City last night. All the dogs in that alley died without warning.”

"What's so strange about this? If you ask me, you're just making a fuss over nothing. It must have been done by those dog dealers!"

"No way, what kind of dog dealer is so audacious as to poison all the dogs in an alley?"

"Who knows? Anyway, it has nothing to do with us!"

……

What the little paper doll could hear, Yunran could naturally hear as well, but she still kept walking forward without looking to the side.

He looked much like the others who had entered the city early on.

"Master, do you think that dog in the alley in the east of the city might have been attacked by that sealed creature?"

Especially considering Yunran's divination, if Lotus City really becomes a dead land in three days.

So, the most likely explanation is that all those sealed beings have broken free of their seals.

As for the Xuan Master who was still in Lotus City, waiting to use the bronze mirror to capture those sealed creatures, he must have miscalculated.

Yun Ran calmly said, "If you remove the words 'whether or not,' the seal must have loosened."

The street was bustling with people, full of the lively atmosphere of everyday life.

Yunran simply couldn't imagine what it would be like for such a city to become a dead city.

That would look terrible!
Yunran felt that she hated anything ugly, so she reluctantly decided to be an unsung hero for once.

"Now, let's go back and draw the talismans!"

The little paper figure didn't understand, but its master must have his reasons for saying that.

When Yunran returned to the inn, there was a noticeable increase in the number of people in the vicinity. The once empty inn now had a "fully booked" sign hanging on it.

The receptionist, who was previously bored out of her mind, is now as busy as a spinning top.

He simply didn't have the extra energy to greet Yunran when she returned.

Yun Ran narrowed her eyes slightly.

It seems that something happened that she didn't know about after she lured away the wandering spirit last night.

The once quiet third floor became lively, and Yunran could hear other people's voices even after returning to her room.

The little paper figure checked the room and, after confirming that no one had entered, breathed a sigh of relief.
