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

Chapter 390 You absolutely must live up to expectations! (2nd update)
Gu Yuan didn't believe it at all when he heard from the ginseng fruit that Xie Xuzhi was in trouble. If it weren't for Yun Ran's little apprentice saying it, he would have punched the person.

Ginseng fruit was not unexpected, after all, he hadn't believed it before.

“That formation was the result of my master’s battle with Aunt Rong. You people from Kyoto are suspicious.”

Seeing the serious expression on Renshenguo's face, Gu Yuan's expression gradually became serious as well: "Are you serious?"

"Ah."

Gu Yuan took out his encrypted phone and made several calls, but no one answered.

Seeing Gu Yuan's face turn deathly pale at a visible speed, and then he turned and ran away.

Ren Shenguo paused for a moment, then made an excuse to send Qingmu Daoren and the others away before returning to the courtyard.

At this moment, many water droplets gradually surrounded Long Ling, converging into a water dragon.

Yunran finally breathed a sigh of relief. The Azure Dragon's dragon essence had been suppressed; now all that was left was to absorb and devour it.

Immediately afterwards, Yunran drew dozens more arrays with overlapping defensive and offensive runes.

The dragon spirit's defense and attack power are now zero. If anyone tries to take advantage of him, they will be sure to succeed.

"Host, is there any problem with Xie Xuzhi...?"

Even for Long Ling, absorbing the Azure Dragon's essence was extremely difficult, let alone for Xie Xuzhi, an ordinary person.

Yunran gazed into the distance, looking towards Kyoto, then sighed, "There's nothing we can do about it. It's just that he's unlucky and so hated."

Now he's practically been marinated in those evil spells. If it weren't for the fact that he's my sugar daddy, I would never have gotten involved.

Fortunately, I found a loophole and used the dragon essence of the Azure Dragon that Rong Gu had nurtured to break the evil spell she had previously cast on Xie Xuzhi; otherwise, I would have been half-dead.

Thinking of the scene she had 'seen' before, Yunran could only silently wish him good luck in her heart.

Seeing Yunran's desolate appearance, Ginseng Fruit suddenly felt that the influence of those whose destinies are intertwined on their hosts was nothing more than that.

Thinking back, if Xie Xuzhi hadn't been so generous with the money and resources he provided, I probably wouldn't even have received such treatment. Tsk tsk tsk, how pathetic.

Xie Xuzhi, who had been pitied by the ginseng fruit, was now lying on the floor, his body twisted in agony. The price of his painful screams was that his voice had become extremely weak.

Fortunately, before he was arrested, he sensed something was wrong and put the Thunder Pearl in his mouth.

Otherwise, even if it wasn't turned into a malevolent entity, it would still bite off its tongue due to the previous painful screams.

The little paper figure trembling in the corner noticed that the previously violent dragon energy had weakened considerably.

Only then did he cautiously step forward and tentatively ask, "Director Xie, are you feeling better?"

As soon as the paper figure approached, it saw Xie Xuzhi, who had been keeping his eyes closed, suddenly open them.

Those eyes, with their entire eyeballs black, clearly showed signs of being invaded by yin energy, and looked extremely sinister.

The aura of the dragon essence could easily tear it apart, which frightened the little paper figure so much that it immediately took several steps back.

Xie Xuzhi blinked, seemingly in response to the little paper figure.

Once it was confirmed that Xie Xuzhi could hear, the little paper doll flew over again to cheer him on.

"To save you, your master even gave you the most nourishing Dragon Essence. As long as you survive, the Yin Curse on your body will be removed."

From now on, apart from suffering a little backlash pain on the fifteenth of each month, you'll be just like a normal person. You must live up to your potential!

After a while, the little paper figure noticed the tremor of the Heavenly Thunder Pearl, and its simple and cute features immediately came to life.

He rushed to Xie Xuzhi, forcefully pried open his mouth, and pulled out the Thunder Pearl. Finally, with all his might, he managed to generate a little electricity in his palm and smashed it towards the Thunder Pearl.

The Thunder Pearl, which was almost ruined, was covered in Xie Xuzhi's blood.

It trembled twice more, and finally, with the help of the heavenly lightning, it began to spin wildly.

The little paper figure watched helplessly as the dragon essence aura that had been hovering nearby seemed to be locked in by a vortex.

Immediately afterwards, with the help of the vortex, it rushed wildly into Xie Xuzhi's body.

The black aura in Xie Xuzhi's eyes began to gradually recede, and the incantations drawn with yin energy also began to slowly dissipate.

As the night passed, even someone as resolute as Xie Xuzhi had countless thoughts of ending his life.

Fortunately, I finally made it through. Although I was still a mess, I was at least back to being somewhat human.

With a "thud," the Heavenly Thunder Pearl exhausted its last bit of power, fell to the ground, and shattered into two pieces.

The little paper figure sadly held the Thunder Pearl, which was about the size of its own head, in its tiny hands.

It's a pity it's not made of flesh and blood, otherwise it would definitely be shedding tears right now.

Xie Xuzhi watched this scene in silence. In the past, he had seen those magical artifacts that had been destroyed in order to protect him.

But never before have I felt such a profound emotional turmoil.

It was as if what fell to the ground and shattered in two was not an object, but his dead old friend.

Xie Xuzhi's voice was already hoarse, and it was extremely difficult for him to make a sound.

At this moment, Xie Xuzhi, who had never been afraid of death and separation, was no longer the cold-hearted and aloof eldest son of the Xie family, but an ordinary person with joys and sorrows.

He reached out and touched the sorrowful little paper figure holding the Heavenly Thunder Pearl, offering silent comfort.

With a loud crash, the incredibly sturdy basement was forcibly broken open from the outside, and light shone through the crack.

Xie Xuzhi closed his eyes and waited a while before opening them again.

Then Gu Yuan's voice came from beside him: "Boss, boss!"

Gu Yuan, dressed in field uniform, led the way and rushed in.

Everyone felt a chilling aura engulf their entire bodies.

Xie Xuzhi lay sprawled on the ground, covered in blood, looking as disheveled as those disabled beggars.

Gu Yuan was so angry his features contorted, and he cursed, "Those damned bastards, I'll fight them to the death!!!"

He cursed and yelled at the people behind him, "Where the doctor is he?!"

As soon as the cursing subsided, someone rushed over with a medicine box. Seeing Xie Xuzhi's miserable state, they were terrified.

They then proceeded to provide emergency treatment to Xie Xuzhi in an orderly manner.

The little paper figure, holding the broken Thunder Pearl, silently retreated to a corner, watching the people coming and going.

It wasn't until Xie Xuzhi was wrapped up like a mummy and carried out that it stuck to the stretcher and followed.

On the island, Yunran, who had been meditating and healing all night, suddenly opened her eyes.

He took out his natal magic weapon and watched it suddenly start shaking violently as if it were having a seizure, and he showed a puzzled expression.
