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

Chapter 222 Cooperation and Honesty (2nd Update)
Seeing that Yunran was wrapped up like a mummy, you could tell that Yunran was seriously injured.

Even those who had previously been clamoring that Yun Ran might have mishandled the situation could only temporarily fall silent.

They still have some sense of shame; they're too embarrassed to erase Yun Ran's previous contributions and treat her like a suspect.

Yunran sat there obediently, and those people could only guess what kind of person she was from her eyes.

"Ask whatever you want."

Yunran's voice sounded exceptionally young and innocent, giving the impression that she was very simple.

"We just want to know about what happened to you in the underground fortress of the Helian family. Based on our judgment, the destroyed place was an altar, right?"

"You were the first one to go in. How was the altar destroyed? And what about the water inside...?"

A barrage of questions came at Yun Ran, but she didn't recognize the people asking them.

Yun Ran isn't the kind of person who would obediently answer any question anyone asks her.

She glanced at the person who had questioned her, then turned her gaze to Xie Xuzhi.

Xie Xuzhi then spoke up: "These gentlemen are Xuan Masters invited by the Tan family and the Helian family to jointly explore the underground fortress."

Yun Ran guessed who these people were, but guessing was one thing, she wasn't going to give them much face anyway.

"That's right, there was indeed an altar down there, a sacrificial altar. As for the water inside, I was the one who brought it in, and I was the one who destroyed the altar."

However, I didn't gain anything either. After the altar was destroyed, I was knocked unconscious and turned into this state.

Those who asked Yunran questions originally thought that Yunran would at least keep some things to herself, but they did not expect that Yunran would not hide anything at all.

Having admitted to destroying the altar, they now have a problem to work on.

“Miss Yun looks to be only a teenager. That altar doesn’t look easy to destroy. What methods did you use?”

This clearly indicates that they suspect Yunran is lying.

Yun Ran took out her Heavenly Thunder Token and made a hand seal, instantly amplifying the Heavenly Thunder Token many times over.

Although a significant portion of the heavenly lightning stored in the Heavenly Lightning Token was absorbed when the altar was activated, some heavenly lightning still remained.

Everyone stared in disbelief as the token, suspended in mid-air, crackled and sparked with electricity.

"Look, this is it. This is my natal magic weapon. It's imbued with heavenly lightning. Although that altar was not simple, it was destroyed with a bang after being struck by the heavenly lightning."

Some people tried to confirm whether Yunran was lying, but little did they know that Yunran was telling the truth, only hiding a part of it.

Yun Ran took back the Heavenly Thunder Token and put it into her pocket.

Then he continued, "Is there anything else you want to ask? I will answer everything I know."

Yun Ran's excessive generosity and frankness have left those who wanted to cause trouble in a difficult position.

The Tan family's Xuan Master subtly glanced at the bigwigs from the Special Administration Bureau.

This scene did not escape Xie Xuzhi's notice. A hint of mockery flashed in his eyes, but he did not stop it.

"Is Miss Yun really seriously injured?"

Yun Ran's motto is: if someone dares to ask, she dares to answer. Upon hearing this question, she immediately stood up and began to remove the gauze from her body.

The girl moved so fast that Gu Yuan, standing behind her, couldn't stop her in time. Gu Yuan looked at Yun Ran with a hint of resentment in his eyes. He had never seen such an honest girl before. Besides, it seemed that this girl's speed had improved quite a bit.

Soon, the gauze on Yunran's body was removed.

When everyone saw the injuries on Yun Ran's body, they couldn't help but gasp.

Although the bloodstains on her body had stopped, all the wounds caused by the energy tearing her apart due to the shattering of the light pillar were now exposed.

Apart from the few high-ranking people who were rescued, everyone else here is considered an expert.

It was immediately apparent that the uneven, unsightly scars on Yun Ran's body were indeed torn open by the backlash of powerful energy.

Especially on Yunran's body, every exposed part of her skin was covered with these scars; her entire body was almost completely surrounded by them.

Xie Xuzhi only knew that Yun Ran was seriously injured, but he had not seen Yun Ran's wounds.

Now, seeing Yun Ran covered in scars, his usually stern face looked extremely ugly.

Gu Yuan's eyes were also full of heartache. How was it any different from a little girl being disfigured?

And yet, they still have to expose themselves in front of these people in order to prove themselves.

He wasn't exactly known for his good temper, and immediately glared at the shocked people with hostility.

"If you can't figure it out, go back to school and start over. Chasing after a young girl for answers, I'm ashamed for you!"

As he spoke, he shouted directly to the people behind him, "Go and find the doctor to re-bandage Ranran's wound!"

Xie Xuzhi's trusted confidants were also seeing Yun Ran's wounds for the first time.

Before, when Yunran was wrapped up like a mummy, they thought the look was funny, but now, they really can't laugh anymore.

Yun Ran sat down again, seemingly unconcerned: "Is there anything else you want to ask?"

The bigwigs invited by the Special Administration Bureau originally intended to take this opportunity to ask them what they wanted to know.

However, upon seeing Yunran's injuries, they immediately abandoned their previous idea.

Although they also want to know some things, they also have their own bottom lines.

With Yun Ran injured like this, they dared not use her as a raft again.

Of course, most importantly, seeing Yunran's injuries completely dispelled the discomfort they had felt before.

They felt that although Yun Ran, this junior, was not so likable, she had not disgraced the Xuanmen people.

Yun Ran's excessive honesty left everyone speechless, and they thought the matter was over.

Xie Xuzhi suddenly spoke up.

"Now that you have no more questions, shouldn't you apologize to my subordinates? It's unreasonable for my people to bleed and then have to endure these undeserved grievances."

The representatives sent by the Tan and Helian families also knew that they were in the wrong.

They could only offer a considerable amount of compensation temporarily, as they had never intended to break ties with the Special Administration Bureau.

The doctor who had been called was already waiting at the door, and Yunran wanted to hear how much compensation these people would offer.

But she couldn't break character, so she could only reluctantly leave and wait for the doctor to re-bandage her.
