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

Chapter 538 Things Have Changed (2nd Update)
Du Jun, who was being watched by everyone, never expected that one day he, a seasoned veteran, would feel nervous because of other people's gaze.

Fortunately, he quickly regained his composure and began to carefully examine the small flag.

Even if this magical artifact is destroyed, its quality will remain; it won't decay even if you fiddle with it a few times.

After examining it for a while and cleaning off the dirt, Du Jun finally recognized the little flag.

“I really did see it. It was two years ago. Licheng isn’t a big place, but any legitimate member of the Xuanmen sect wouldn’t hide their identity here.”

The owner of this small flag is Zheng Guofeng. I don't know his exact background, but I do know he's from the southwest and quite capable.

The person who received Zheng Guofeng was someone else; he only glanced at them briefly and didn't meddle in their affairs.

Sigh, if he had known they would have such a connection, he would have definitely gone to find out more about Zheng Guofeng.

Yun Ran took out a talisman and held it between two fingers: "Investigate Zheng Guofeng in the Southwest!"

As Yunran finished speaking, the talisman burst into flames and turned to ashes in an instant.

In such a place with disordered magnetic fields, they cannot contact the outside world through electronic devices such as mobile phones, but that does not mean that Yunran cannot make contact.

However, this method requires highly skilled individuals to use; ordinary members of the Xuanmen sect simply cannot utilize it.

The people of Sihui Sect watched helplessly as Yun Ran contacted the outside world, their eyes practically sparkling with wonder.

Xuan Chu, who was cleaning up Yun Ran's mess, finally managed to conceal the secret.

Having tricked those old monsters who had come out of the mountains, they were finally able to rest for a while, and then they received a message from Yunran via talisman paper.

At this moment, he did feel a tiny bit of regret. If he had known, he shouldn't have let Yun Ran know that he also possessed this supernatural ability.

Now look what's happened! Yunran has really gotten used to ordering him around; why does she make him do everything?

Despite being speechless, Xuan Chu still took out his phone and sent a message to his subordinates.

Five minutes later, all the relevant information about Zheng Guofeng in Southwest China was sent to Xuan Chu's mobile phone.

It's only because their Tiandao Village has such extensive influence that it's so easy to investigate someone's information so quickly.

Just as he was about to return to Yunran, Xuan Chu suddenly stopped.

He muttered to himself, "Given Yun Ran's personality, if she knew that using the power of Tiandao Village would make it easy to find out what she wanted to know, would she bother me often in the future?"

After hesitating for a while, Xuan Chu finally convinced himself that things shouldn't happen more than three times. If Yun Ran really didn't want to keep trying to take advantage of him, he would just pretend he didn't know Yun Ran.

Xuan Chu quickly sent a message to Yun Ran in the same way, telling her about Zheng Guofeng.

Du Jun and the others didn't know who Yun Ran was contacting in that way, and thought they would have to wait a long time for a response.

Who knew that they would hear a response so soon?

Zheng Guofeng disappeared two years ago; he was skilled in wind-based magic...

Xuan Chu quickly finished recounting the matter concerning Zheng Guofeng, but Yun Ran frowned.

If someone is skilled in wind magic, then this small flag is very likely their natal magic weapon.

Moreover, Xuan Chu emphasized that Zheng Guofeng's family is quite prominent in the Southwest, and he himself is not an unknown figure.

"What?! Zheng Guofeng is that big shot in the Southwest who's skilled in wind magic! This flag..."

Du Jun didn't even realize his voice was trembling when he said this.

"You know him?"

Du Jun nodded quickly: "Although I don't know him personally, I've heard a little about his deeds. More than twenty years ago, he was one of the top ten in the Xuanmen Grand Competition. He had a bright future ahead of him, but then he suddenly disappeared. Some say he married into another family, while others say he was out of touch with reality and was suppressed by those big Xuanmen families."

Unexpectedly, he was originally from a prominent Taoist family, specifically the renowned Zheng family in the southwest!

At that time, everyone thought that this rising star who had just risen and fallen was nothing more than someone from some remote, unsophisticated background.

After feeling regretful for a while, I put the matter out of my mind.

Now, more than twenty years later, hearing news of this person again under these circumstances evokes a sense of things having changed drastically.

This was the first time that the younger generation of the Sihuimen had heard about this Senior Zheng.

Fang Yu glanced at Xin Fu and thought that the connection between his martial uncle and Senior Zheng was probably similar to their connection with Brother Xin.

However, the more they learned about Senior Zheng's prowess, the more uneasy they became.

Such a powerful person not only had their natal magic weapon destroyed, but also disappeared without a trace.

They were forced to once again deeply experience the malevolence of the Death Mountain.

After a moment of silence, everyone turned their gaze to Yun Ran, clearly waiting for her to make a decision.

Xin Fu spoke up first: "Abbot, what should we do?"

Although Yunran had just seen the situation inside the small canyon through the little paper doll's eyes, she still planned to go and see for herself.

He turned to look at the ginseng fruit: "You stay outside and follow them."

He then looked at Xinfu and said, "Come in with me."

If one hadn't witnessed how the ginseng fruit could so easily trample down the shadow of the one who had tried to replace Fang Yu with just one kick, one would have been unaware of its power.

Now that Yunran has left the ginseng fruit behind, the people of Sihui Sect will probably all think that Yunran wants them to take care of the child.

Ginseng Fruit also knew why its host left it behind. If it went in with its host, leaving Xin Fu here, it might not be able to protect the people of Sihui Sect.

Although he was somewhat unhappy, he still nodded.

"I understand, Master. I will keep a close eye on them."

Now that we've brought people in, we should naturally do everything we can to protect them.

Yunran ignored Ginseng Fruit's little tantrum, left a few more paper figures for Ginseng Fruit to use, and then stepped into the small canyon.

After Xin Fu affixed defensive talismans to his body, he quickly followed.

Yun Ran and the others quickly disappeared from sight, and only then did Ren Shenguo turn his gaze away.

When they made eye contact with Fang Yu and the others, it made them quite embarrassed.

They're all grown up, yet they're letting a child protect them...

Fang Yu immediately revealed his neat teeth. They say that people who smile a lot have good luck, so he smiled more to ease the awkwardness.

Renshenguo looked at the talismans worn by the group and found that they were undamaged.

Then he drew a large circle next to him and walked into it.

"Come in, all of you!"

The people from Sihuimen didn't understand what was going on, but they still followed them in. Children like to play, so what's wrong with them playing along?
