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

Chapter 609 I'm familiar with all these tricks.
Junior Uncle's schemes always prioritize winning hearts and minds, making people willingly enter the game.

Given Yun Ran's unfortunate state, most people really couldn't withstand being tormented by her.

But Xuan Chu is different. Not only is his strength guaranteed, but he also owes Yun Ran a huge favor.

Thus, their relationship is no longer just a transaction.

If Yunran were to encounter an unavoidable danger, Xuan Chu would definitely risk his life to protect her.

The desert sun is truly scorching; the air in the sun-baked land is so hot it's almost distorted.

After checking that everything was alright, Xuan Chu prepared to go back to the car and wait.

Just then, a gust of wind carrying heat blew by, and Xuan Chu's expression changed slightly.

Anyone else would surely think that, in such a distressing and scorching situation, this breeze could at least alleviate the irritability caused by the heat.

However, after the previous description of Yun Ran's unlucky constitution, this scene became one where something unusual must be amiss.

Xuan Chu quickened his pace and soon returned to the car, his expression somewhat solemn.

When he first emerged from seclusion, he was calm and composed, feeling that among the younger generation of the Xuanmen sect, who else could compare to him?

He even firmly believed that Heaven's justice was impartial and would not deliberately target anyone; now, he felt like a frog in a well.

Yunran took a can of cola out of the refrigerator and handed it to Xuan Chu, saying kindly, "I suggest you close the car door first, it's about to pour rain."

Xuan Chu took the cola and asked suspiciously, "How did you know?"

Yunran is no different from an ordinary person now, so in theory, she shouldn't be able to predict what will happen next.

"I know all these tricks by heart: first, the RV gets a flat tire, then it gets stuck in a ditch, and finally, a torrential downpour and a sauna-like experience. That's it!"

Xuan Chu...

How many 'beatings' must one have endured to so easily guess the pattern of divine punishment?

"Don't look at me like I'm some kind of pitiful person. I'm not pitiful. Isn't this something anyone with a brain could figure out?"

With just one sentence, Xuan Chu swallowed back the tiny bit of heartache he had finally managed to show.

"So what do we do now?"

"What can I do but wait? I'm just an ordinary person now, so the punishment from Heaven is limited. It won't cause much harm; it's just disgusting."

Xuan Chu thought about it and realized that it made sense. The previous troubles were really nothing to people like them; they were just a bit annoying.

No sooner had Yunran finished speaking than the sound of raindrops falling came from the roof of the car. The sun outside remained shining, doing nothing to stop the torrential rain.

Although the laws of Heaven are somewhat annoying, they cannot be acted upon arbitrarily; all punishments are corresponding.

For example, she is now as fragile as a piece of crispy skin, and the corresponding punishment is child's play compared to what she used to be.

Otherwise, a single bolt of lightning could kill her instantly.

The ground, already scorched by the heat, was hit by a downpour, and the first wave of hot steam arrived.

People with slightly weaker constitutions are bound to get sick in such an environment.

"boom"

That's the sound of a Coke being opened.

Xuan Chu took a sip of soda, looked at the torrential rain outside, and thought of the saying, "The one who understands you best is definitely your opponent."

Watching Yunran lean against the bedside, drinking the instant coffee that the little paper doll had made, she looked like she was appreciating the rainy scene under the desert sun.

Yun Ran took a sip of coffee, then put it down with a look of disdain. It was instant, and the taste was so-so. Xuan Chu: ...

Yun Ran's mentality is absolutely amazing. He's the one who's getting anxious, giving off a vibe of the emperor not being worried but the eunuch being anxious.

After putting down the cup, Yun Ran looked up and saw Xuan Chu's expression, and immediately laughed: "What's with that expression? I get the feeling you're not holding back anything good."

"I thought you would be very angry, even..."

"I might even take my anger out on you? I'm not that bored. You're from Tiandao Village, and it's your duty to abide by the rules of Tiandao Village."

Besides, you know that the Heavenly Dao was severely damaged and its origin stolen. Even if the Heavenly Dao's operating rules have some problems now, it hasn't completely collapsed.

If Yunran continued to grumble and curse like before, Xuan Chu might feel better.

But now, Yun Ran's 'understanding' behavior made him feel a strange sense of guilt.

It was as if Yunran's suffering was all related to him.

The current Xuan Chu is much more human than when they first met; he at least has some emotions and preferences now.

"Tsk tsk tsk, I really didn't expect that you, a guy from Tiandao Village, would be so sentimental."

I remember you swore back then that the people of Tiandao Village wouldn't take sides or judge right or wrong.

Having his shortcomings exposed to his face, Xuan Chu glanced at Yun Ran speechlessly.

Fortunately, the sound of the heavy rain hitting the roof of the RV broke the awkward atmosphere in the small space.

However, he still wanted to argue that the rules of Tiandao Village were not wrong.

The problem is merely a slight deviation, not a fundamental issue.

"Tiandao Village upholds the will to ensure the normal operation of the Heavenly Dao. As long as it does not affect the operation of the Heavenly Dao, Tiandao Village will not interfere in anything."

Just like a human being wouldn't care why two ants are fighting in some corner, nor would they care which of the two ants is good or evil.

An ant will only be discovered and eliminated by humans if it affects a person's normal life.

Otherwise, the existence and extinction of these two ants would never have been known to humankind…

Now it was Yunran's turn to be speechless. The analogy was good, but next time, there's no need to use analogies again.

The torrential rain doesn't seem to be going to stop anytime soon, and the Special Administration doesn't know when they'll be able to come.

The tires can be replaced, but knowing that things are already going badly, it's best not to go against the grain and risk making things even worse.

"Alright, go do what you're supposed to do, I need to rest for a while!"

With that, Yunran pulled the curtain shut and lay back down on her personal cushion.

It would be a shame not to waste those leisurely days accompanied by the sound of rain.

Hearing the game sounds coming from behind the curtain, Xuan Chu's lips twitched.

Yunran's magnanimity is now definitively proven.

Looking outside at the torrential rain, the water vapor had already dispersed, obscuring the view into the distance; only the immediate surroundings could be seen.

The pits that the little paper figures had previously created are now gradually turning into small puddles.

Thinking back to when their car was half-stuck in the ground, they realized that without the little paper figure, they would never have been able to get it out intact.

If you encounter another downpour, tsk tsk tsk, you can imagine how awful that would be.
