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

Chapter 1285 This idea is a bit tricky.
Yun Ran quickly shook her head: "There was no extraordinary encounter. I just grew up. Don't make wild guesses!"

If Yunran hadn't said anything, Longling probably wouldn't have continued the topic, but now, Yunran's behavior was clearly an unnecessary action stemming from her guilty conscience.

The more Long Ling looked at Yun Ran, the more guilty she seemed.

"you sure?"

Yunran: ...

Sure enough, when people feel guilty, they tend to make more mistakes.

"Okay, to be honest, it wasn't exactly a lucky encounter, I just took advantage of Chi Yao a little, the one you met at the small building before."

If Yunran had discovered some rare and precious materials or treasures on her own, Long Ling would definitely have already started clamoring.

However, if these benefits were obtained from other people, Long Ling would immediately lose interest.

Seeing that the matter was over, Yun Ran immediately changed the subject: "I need to find an absolutely safe place to open the fragments of this Heavenly Book. At most a day is enough time for those people to find my whereabouts."

Yunran and Longling had developed a tacit understanding. Some things didn't need to be said explicitly; Longling already knew the meaning behind Yunran's words.

He immediately replied, "You can leave without worry. Leave the rest to me."

With him blocking the way, no one can find Yunran.

The little paper doll originally had Yunran's aura on it, so it was naturally kept as a substitute.

Although this is just a dream mirror, the people who appear here are all people who once existed, and some are even legendary figures.

Yun Ran didn't think that those people had the ability to lock onto her through her aura, therefore, a substitute was necessary.

The paper doll and the dragon spirit are old partners, and Yunran doesn't need to coordinate anything; they know how to cooperate with each other.

"Master, rest assured, I will definitely cooperate well with the Dragon King."

That night, Yun Ran left quietly without alerting anyone, not even Long Ling noticed.

No sooner had Yun Ran left than someone came looking for her.

Dozens of people dressed in black silently gathered outside Mei City, their eyes fixed on the direction of the city center.

"The employer has ordered that we seize what's in that person's hands at all costs, regardless of whether they live or die. Anyone who tries to stop us will be killed without mercy!"

"Yes!"

"Yes!"

"Yes!"

These people were much faster than Yunran had anticipated. Even though Shenjian Villa refused to provide any information, they were still able to accurately locate Yunran's exact position, which showed that they were no ordinary people.

If it were someone less alert, they would probably be caught red-handed right now.

Long Ling was leisurely eating, enjoying a rare moment of peace, when the little paper doll suddenly rushed in in a great hurry.

The sturdy door trembled a few times as it was pushed by the tiny paper figure's palm.

"Dragon King, someone is coming for us!"

If it weren't for the murderous aura emanating from them, their stealth skills would have made them very difficult to spot.

Long Ling's leisurely expression instantly turned into a sour face.

Her tone was clearly angry: "Are these people crazy? They can't stand to see people doing well. We just got back, and they're already coming to our door?" With the ancient ferocious beasts that Yun Ran had given out, and knowing they would be watching the people of Divine Sword Manor, Long Ling was certain that the people of Divine Sword Manor would never dare to betray Yun Ran.

So, what methods did these people use to find us? Long Ling strongly suspected that these people had installed something like a tracking device on them.

The little paper doll was also furious. When it sensed the murderous aura, it flew out to investigate, intending to report back to its owner...

Fortunately, the owner left early, otherwise, he would definitely be angry.

Long Ling put down what she was holding and glanced at the little paper figure: "Alright, you go back to Yun Ran's courtyard first, be a good substitute, and don't let anyone find out that Yun Ran is not here. Leave the rest to me!"

"Don't worry, Dragon King, I can definitely make those people sense my master's presence, but they won't be able to find me!"

When it comes to hiding skills, the little paper doll considers itself top-notch.

The two quickly divided the tasks and went to prepare.

Dozens of men in black flew swiftly over the houses of Meicheng, their movements almost inaudible.

The leader, holding a compass that emitted a silvery-white light, headed straight for the stronghold where Yun Ran and the others were.

They didn't take a single detour along the way, which shows that these people really knew where Yunran was, and weren't just wandering around aimlessly.

Apart from a few people who occasionally patrolled the area, the rest of the people at the outpost had already fallen asleep and were sleeping soundly.

After making some simple preparations, Long Ling flew to the roof of another courtyard.

This courtyard is far from where they live, so even if this area is reduced to ruins, it won't affect him and Yunran.

Long Ling was very satisfied with the spot she had chosen: "I'm so clever!"

A few soft whooshing sounds came from the air. The sound was so faint that if you didn't look closely, you wouldn't be able to detect the presence of these people at all.

The aura and killing intent emanating from them were so strong that it would have been difficult to discern their true nature unless they were directly targeting him and Yun Ran.

Long Ling stood with his legs askew, looking at the ghostly figure in black with a half-smile, like an old fox.

The moonlight was so bright that the smile on Long Ling's face was clearly visible.

"Hey, it's so late at night, are you guys looking for revenge or just relaxing?"

Although Long Ling seemed to take the opponent lightly, he had actually released his powerful dragon soul as a warning.

This was something he learned from Yunran: outwardly, he looked down on them, but secretly, he wished he could sound the alarm for everyone.

Only in this way can we avoid making big mistakes and capsizing in the gutter.

These people may seem to number only a few dozen, but based on their ability to conceal their presence, Long Ling has no doubt that they have the strength to easily wipe out a medium-sized family of several hundred people.

When the dozens of men in black saw Long Ling, their hearts were stirred with considerable emotion.

Since their debut, they have taken on hundreds, if not thousands, of missions, and have never been defeated. On many occasions, they have wiped out their opponents without ever being able to find a trace of them.

They didn't take it too seriously this time; it was just about killing a few people and stealing a few items.

They can come and go freely in the territory of the imperial nobles, so this little Meicheng is nothing!

But now, the leader suddenly realized that this idea was a bit tricky. They hadn't even started to act when they were caught red-handed.

Unfortunately, the other party was alone, and their attitude was so casual.

Clearly, the other party had sufficient confidence and was not the kind of fool who overestimated their abilities.
