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

Chapter 329: Leave it for those who need it to earn.

Gu Yuan stepped forward with a smile and introduced the identities of these people to Yun Ran: "Ranran, this is Elder He, Elder Shen, Elder Liu... They are all elders of the Xuanmen Grand Competition Association now."

Without Gu Yuan needing to say anything, Yun Ran could roughly guess what the good thing he had mentioned earlier was.

Although the people present had all stepped down from their positions in their families and rarely got involved anymore, their influence remained, which qualified them to become elders of the Grand Competition Association.

As the one being challenged, and given Yunran's actions during this period, she has long been one of the focal points.

At this moment, Yunran accepted the scrutiny of these seniors with composure, her eyes filled with openness and confidence.

Because she's a capable person, she's not afraid of any storm.

"We're really getting old. These young people these days are all so promising."

"The triennial Xuanmen Grand Competition is the day after tomorrow. We old folks are sure to have a great time."

……

If, at the beginning, they only gave him some face out of consideration for his feelings.

Now that they have seen Yun Ran in person and confirmed that the rumors are true, they naturally will not rush to make things difficult for someone with such a bright future and powerful backing.

Old He, who was in the lead, did not join the conversation of the other elders. After a while, he finally withdrew his gaze from Yun Ran.

"Forgive my boldness, but may I ask who your teacher is, young friend?"

Old He considered himself a well-informed person; he wasn't sure he knew all the sects of Xuanmen, but he knew at least most of them.

However, after carefully examining Yun Ran's aura, he clearly sensed that Yun Ran's cultivation technique differed significantly from what he currently understood.

“My master was just a wandering Taoist. All he left me were the three characters ‘Qingfeng Temple’. I don’t know much else about him.”

If Yunran hadn't obtained permission to inherit the sect's legacy, she wouldn't have revealed the name Qingfeng Temple.

She knew that many people were watching her, and that many groups of people had already investigated everything about the original owner of this body from childhood to adulthood.

These abilities she possesses have absolutely nothing to do with the original owner of this body. Even if these people turn the world upside down, they won't find a single trace of them.

Fortunately, Xie Xuzhi had encrypted her information beforehand; otherwise, some things would have been difficult to explain away.

When Old He heard Yun Ran mention the wandering Taoist priest and Qingfeng Temple, he really couldn't recall any related people.

Fortunately, he was only curious about who could teach such a talented student, not about Yun Ran's background.

Now that Yunran has said she doesn't know either, he doesn't suspect that Yunran is lying.

They assumed that Yunran's master was either someone with little background or that Qingfeng Temple was just a small, remote Taoist temple.

Or perhaps that person comes from an extraordinary background, possibly from a reclusive family who came out to gain experience and couldn't reveal their identity.

"I see. What a pity. I was thinking that it would be great if I could meet your master and have a friendly spar."

“I haven’t seen my master for many years. If I have the chance, I will talk to him about it.”

The ginseng fruit, listening to its host speak human language to human and ghost language to ghost, couldn't help but think to itself: It would be a miracle if you could even see your master!

In the following time, Elder He and the others briefly explained to Yun Ran some of the rules of the Xuanmen Grand Competition, as well as the participating families and forces. These things were not secrets; anyone who participated could obtain this information through various channels.

Aside from Xie Xuzhi, who was her powerful backer, Yun Ran didn't have any other influence, so naturally no one was there to analyze this information for her in such a meticulous way.

Gu Yuansheng was afraid that Yunran would suffer a loss, so without Xie Xuzhi's instructions, he directly used his own connections to make arrangements for Yunran.

By the time it was over, Yunran had received a lot of information.

They also learned that this private estate was actually a place where members of the Xuanmen sect relayed and disseminated messages.

After seeing the elderly men off, Yun Ran turned to Gu Yuan and said, "Thank you!"

"Why are you being so polite with me? We're like siblings from different fathers and mothers. Your business is my business."

"Although I can't help you take down those annoying guys in the Xuanmen Grand Competition, I can still handle the logistical work."

Just as she was about to leave, Yunran noticed that what had been a plum blossom painting hanging on the wall had now been replaced by an electronic screen.

This ability to create such realistic illusions is truly worthy of being the information hub of the Xuanmen (Taoist) sect.

Gu Yuan followed Yun Ran's gaze and then said, "Someone has posted a mission here. Some people from the Xuanmen sects want to go out for training or need to find something, but they are worried about the danger. They can post missions here."

As you know, not all members of the Xuanmen (Taoist sects) have family backing. Those who are severely lacking in resources take on these tasks.

Yun Ran nodded. Back then, she had the backing of Qingfeng Temple, so her resources were already considered extraordinary. But the speed at which people in the Xuanmen sect consumed resources was even more extraordinary.

Fortunately, she learned to draw talismans remotely; otherwise, the top-grade cinnabar or talisman paper alone would have exhausted all her resources, not to mention the rare and precious materials.

In order to master the Heavenly Thunder Token, she not only exhausted all the treasures she had accumulated, but she also almost plundered her uncle's treasure trove, which he had built up over half a lifetime.

Thinking of this, Yun Ran felt extremely fortunate that she had latched onto Xie Xuzhi, this powerful figure, so she didn't have to suffer so much by taking on those low-paying tasks.

"Let's go!"

Gu Yuan was a little dumbfounded as he watched Yun Ran walk away so gracefully. He had thought that Yun Ran would be interested in the tasks posted on the screen.

He quickly chased after him, saying, "Didn't you even look at what kind of task was posted?"

Yun Ran glanced at Gu Yuan sideways: "I don't lack resources, nor do I need any more training. Those resources are for those who need them to earn!"

Gu Yuan paused for a moment, clearly not expecting Yun Ran to give such an answer.

Then a smile spread across her face. No wonder she's his half-sister; her perspective is just different.

They won't take advantage of their abilities or desire for fame to seize resources that others already lack.

"I'll be your cheerleader the day after tomorrow. I'll take all the vacation days I've saved up over the years. By the way, what color do you need for the support? How about red? It symbolizes joy and celebration."

"You're so noisy!!!"

"I'm a very prestigious logistics person, and you're still complaining?"
