Chapter 589 We can't be so double-standard
The daytime hustle and bustle has continued until now, finally drawing to a close, giving way to the tranquility of the night.

Yunran lay on the bed, slowly looking at the list of congratulatory gifts she had received that day.

He laughed out loud as he watched: "We're rich! We're rich! I never thought these Xuanmen families were so incredibly wealthy!"

Renshenguo sat to the side, peeling fruit for Yunran. Seeing how happy Yunran was, he grinned and smiled foolishly along with her.

Everyone else was exhausted and collapsed, even someone as strong and healthy as Gu Yuan was starting to feel the strain.

But the ginseng fruit was still full of energy, placing the peeled fruit pieces next to Yunran's hand.

"Host, although we've made a fortune, these people's mouths are really annoying. If you hadn't stopped me from taking action, I would have shut them up!"

Yunran reached out and forked a piece of pink pineapple, put it in her mouth, and the sweet juice immediately filled her entire mouth, making her squint her eyes in bliss. This was true enjoyment.

After swallowing all the fruit in her mouth, Yunran said with a smile, "As a person, you can't have it all."

We just took so many good things from their pockets, so what's wrong with enduring a little bit of their cursing?
Besides, what they said isn't wrong. Your host, me, wasn't a good person to begin with.

Moreover, you must allow yourself that there will always be some people in this world who are born with countless halos, inspiring envy, jealousy, and hatred in others!

The ginseng fruit has been a human for half a year now, and it has long understood some basic human nature.

He was just annoyed to hear these people talking about the crickets behind his back.

"Alright, what's the big deal? Everyone talks about others behind their backs, and everyone gets talked about behind their backs. Your host, me, has talked about others a lot too! We can't be so hypocritical, you know?"

What can the ginseng fruit do? The host, the person involved, doesn't care, so he can only remain silent.

"Understood, host. From now on, as long as it doesn't involve our interests, I'll just let it go in one ear and out the other!"

Yunran was satisfied now and closed her eyes to enjoy this rare moment of peace.

However, there are always people who like to cause her trouble, and she noticed that someone was slowly approaching the clock tower.

Yun Ran waved her hand, and the little paper figure that was massaging her back immediately stopped its diligent little hands and disappeared in a flash.

"Host, those people, are they already planning something so soon?"

Ginseng Fruit was speechless. Those people were really impatient. They had already moved into Qingfeng Temple, and it was only their first day, yet they were already rushing to cause trouble.

Yun Ran shrugged indifferently: "Let them be. Anyway, we've collected all the money we were supposed to. If they get hurt because of their own stupidity, it has nothing to do with me!"

Outside the square.

Several people dressed in black had even put ignore tags on their bodies, so even if someone passed by and saw them, they would subconsciously ignore them.

I don't know how these people reached an agreement to appear here together.

The little paper figure that had been massaging Yunran's back had flown to the pillar next to the clock tower and stuck there without looking out of place at all.

The master brought it out not to catch these people, but to prevent them from being killed by the shockwave if they angered the Hunyuan Bell.

Qingfeng Temple has only just officially opened. It would be such a bad omen if someone were seriously injured or died here.

The little paper doll's role is to keep watch and, seeing that they've all paid, to save their lives.

It's been posted here for quite a while now, but why haven't those troublemakers come over yet? They're so slow!
Just as the little paper figure was thinking this, the quiet, puzzled voices of those people came from not far away.

"What's going on? Why can't we get any closer to that clock tower?" Even though it was right in front of them, they had this feeling that they couldn't take another step forward.

The other person said with certainty, "It's a formation! Only a formation could keep us going around in circles like this without us realizing we've been tricked!"

Upon hearing this, the remaining people's expressions immediately turned sour. They never expected that there would be a formation in the square of Qingfeng Temple.

"Now what!"

"The people from Qingfeng Temple may not discover our purpose for a while, but if we are trapped here for too long, they will find out soon!"

"Then let's break the formation. No matter what, we haven't completely broken ties with Yunran and Qingfeng Temple, so we still have a chance to escape!"

In a few hours, it will be dawn; their time is running out.

The group had no choice but to temporarily put aside their own thoughts and work together to break the formation.

The little paper figure was stuck to the pillar on the clock tower, watching these people busy themselves below, its face showing a speechless expression.

It wanted to warn everyone: This isn't some kind of formation, but rather the Hunyuan Bell's built-in defense. As long as you retreat outside the defensive range, nothing will happen.

I don't know how much time passed, but then the sky began to lighten with a hint of dawn.

Unable to break through the formation and unable to advance any further, the group finally showed signs of defeat.

He could only reluctantly and bitterly say, "Withdraw!"

They had thought leaving would be difficult, but to their surprise, the retreat went quite smoothly.

Everyone:...

A sense of pent-up frustration was stuck in their chests, unable to escape or subside.

The group could only angrily hurry back to their rooms before anyone noticed.

The little paper doll watched the show all night, and only after everyone had left did it climb down from the clock tower pillar and fly back to Yunran's lounge.

Yunran was fast asleep and had no idea what day it was.

Renshenguo was exceptionally diligent, and went to the kitchen with great energy to stew a nourishing tonic for Yunran.

When the first rays of sunlight fell on Qingfeng Temple, many early risers truly experienced what it meant to be a place of auspicious feng shui.

The energy beneficial to cultivation flowed towards them autonomously, as if it were free, desperately.

Only then did everyone belatedly sit down and meditate, losing their appetite for breakfast.

By the time they finished meditating, the sun was high in the sky, and their stomachs were growling with hunger.

People like them, who belong to the Xuanmen sect, are physically stronger than ordinary people, and their ability to withstand hunger is also extraordinary.

Many people usually have the habit of meditating first thing in the morning and then eating breakfast, but they have never been this hungry before.

They knew better than anyone what this meant.

Last night, everyone who was still indignant about Yunran's charging fee now felt that their shameless decision to stay last night was incredibly clever!
