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

Chapter 446 I Have a Little Knowledge of Summoning Ghosts (2 Updates)
Minister Duan and Elder Gong could naturally guess what Yun Ran meant by leaving things unsaid.

If they couldn't even think of these things, they would have been brought down long ago in the power struggle.

Minister Duan couldn't help but gasp: "Hiss~ If it's really as we guessed, does that mean that what we're really facing now is an unknown opponent?"

Gong Lao's expression was also very unpleasant. Knowing that his childhood idol had such a tragic end was already infuriating.

Now, it's even more obvious that there's an invisible hand using a prodigy like Xu Wenzhu Qing as a weapon to be broken at will, not only using him to kill but also to destroy his spirit.

"Bang" sound.

Elder Gong slammed his fist on the table: "Investigate! We must find out the truth! This kind of method is utterly insane! This operation has practically destroyed the most outstanding young generation in the Xuanmen at that time!"

Ginseng Fruit, oblivious to the situation, suddenly blurted out, "Those who could scheme like this are probably already buried high in the grave. There's no point in investigating them now."

Yun Ran turned her head and glared at the ginseng fruit. Although he was telling the truth, sometimes the truth really hurts people's hearts.

Seeing that Elder Gong's expression was visibly turning ugly, Yun Ran knew that he wouldn't bother with such a small thing as Ginseng Fruit.

But they will definitely feel bad because they can't bring the culprits to justice.

Yun Ran immediately added, "It's alright. I know a little about summoning ghosts. Even if someone is dead, we can dig up their grave and then capture their soul."

As he spoke, he clapped his hands, and Mo Zhi, who was sleeping soundly inside the jade tablet, immediately crawled out.

As soon as Mo Zhi appeared, the indoor temperature, which had been quite comfortable, immediately dropped by more than ten degrees.

Yun Ran grinned and said, "When the time comes, we humans can't really argue with a guy who's become a ghost, but we can let his kind beat him up, no problem!"

Minister Duan: ...

Elder Gong: ...

They were initially quite angry, but now, seeing Yun Ran's despicable actions, they suddenly didn't know what to say.

Master Gong only glanced at Mo Zhi before feeling a slight discomfort in his eyes. Clearly, this ghost summoned by Yun Ran was terrifyingly powerful.

"This is... the Ghost King?"

Yun Ran shook her head, just about to say, "This is the Ghost General."

Minister Duan exclaimed angrily, "You dared to keep it a secret! This is definitely at the Ghost King level! Otherwise, why would the indoor temperature drop so low? Are you courting death? Aren't you afraid of being attacked by the Ghost King?!"

Seeing Minister Duan's anxious expression, Yun Ran leisurely added, "This is a Ghost General, oh, almost at the level of a Ghost Emperor~"

With a thud, Minister Duan's eyes rolled back and he fainted.

Yunran: ...

Mo Zhi thought that the master had summoned her to save face, and was about to bow to the master and humbly submit to him.

Before she could even speak, the person who had just said the master was courting death was so frightened that he fainted.

Mo Zhi was immediately embarrassed. Heaven knows how rare it is to make a ghost feel embarrassed.

"Master..."

Mo Zhi now wondered what she should do: greet the master and show that she was his ghost, or go back to the jade tablet.

Yun Ran was also stunned by Minister Duan's fainting. Apart from the ginseng fruit, which she was used to, even Elder Gong was wary at this moment.

Yun Ran pursed her lips. These people were truly ignorant. Wasn't it just to show them that even if the mastermind behind it all was gone, she could still handle it?

As a result, it actually scared them.

Yun Ran waved her hand, and Mo Zhi breathed a sigh of relief, finally no longer having to stand there so awkwardly. She immediately crawled back into the jade pendant.

As Old Master Gong watched in disbelief as the Ghost General obeyed Yun Ran's every word, his previous shock and worry dissipated considerably.

"You actually dared to raise such a ghost general, a ghost that's half a step into the Ghost Emperor realm?"

Yun Ran shook her head, but just as Elder Gong relaxed his brows, he fell silent again at Yun Ran's next words.

"It wasn't raised by me, it just insisted on coming with me, I guess it felt a connection with me."

After Mo Zhi left, the temperature in the room returned to normal, and Ren Shenguo held a small bottle under Minister Duan's nose.

Minister Duan, who had fainted, quickly regained consciousness.

When his gaze fell upon Yunran, he couldn't help but shrink back slightly.

Presumably feeling embarrassed for having fainted from fright, Minister Duan gently pushed away the hand that Ginseng Fruit was trying to help him up and stood up on his own.

He patted off imaginary dust from his clothes and sat back down.

He coughed lightly before saying, "Since you have a ghost general by your side, you don't need to worry about the person behind the scenes escaping after they die."

Neither Yunran nor Elder Gong spoke, and then there was another silence.

Fortunately, the assistant knocked on the door at that moment; he had come to deliver the food.

Minister Duan was the first to stand up: "I didn't expect it to be lunchtime so soon. Let's eat first, and we can talk about the rest later."

After the meal, Minister Duan made an excuse that he had other things to do and immediately slipped away, as if he was afraid someone would call him.

This was the first time that Elder Gong had ever seen Minister Duan, who was usually somewhat rigid, flee in such a disheveled state.

"From now on, Xiao Duan won't be able to put on airs in front of you anymore."

Seeing that Elder Gong was still in the mood to joke, Yun Ran knew that the matter of her releasing the ghost and startling people was now in the past.

Having said everything that needed to be said, Yunran had no interest in staying any longer to have a heart-to-heart talk with Elder Gong, and turned to go back to her own place.

On the way back, Ginseng Fruit said with obvious disdain, "The Venerable Jiechen has met Mo Zhi before, and even fought alongside him, but he wasn't scared at all."

I never expected Minister Duan to be so timid. He's so ignorant! He's even afraid of the Ghost General…

Yun Ran reached out and patted the ginseng fruit's head: "What do you know? The Special Administration Bureau deals with fierce ghosts the most. Even ghost kings are rare, let alone ghost generals."

When I first entered the ghost realm, I had to hide everywhere, even kneel down to avoid it. There are always people stronger than you, and heavens beyond heavens. Being frightened is nothing shameful.

Ginseng Fruit suddenly remembered that it had also been frightened at times: "Host, I was wrong. I shouldn't have laughed at Minister Duan for being timid."

"It's good that you know. The worst thing for a person is to lose their sense of awe. It is indeed commendable to be fearless in the face of adversity, but if you don't even know what fear is, then you are not far from death."

The ginseng fruit immediately nodded vigorously: "Host, I've remembered everything. I will definitely be a good person."
