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

Chapter 654 These are all incredibly talented people! (2nd update)
With a monkey's soul in his left hand and a fox's soul in his right, Xuan Chu returned to the small building where Yun Ran had been staying, his face stern.

Yun Ran propped her head up with her hand, lazily closing her eyes to rest, looking extremely languid.

But no one knew that, from the outside, she seemed no different from a normal person.

In fact, her body was constantly enduring a fine, tearing pain.

The moment Xuan Chu entered, Yun Ran heard a series of clear bell sounds.

Yun Ran opened her eyes and looked Xuan Chu up and down: "Did you provoke something unclean?"

Her current Xuanmen abilities are all sealed, so she naturally cannot see the two soul bodies that Xuan Chu is holding in his hand.

But the sound of this bell is a magical artifact given to her by the ancestor. Whenever unclean spirits appear around her, the bell will automatically ring.

Xuan Chu naturally heard the bell sound as well, and he wasn't surprised by Yun Ran's question.

Anyway, no matter what treasure Yun Ran brought out, he thought it was normal.

"It's not that I've offended anything unclean; it's that I've captured the souls of two animals, and they're trapped inside the robot's body, constantly working!"

Yunran: ...

What did she hear? How did the souls of animals get mixed up with the robot?

Xuan Chu looked at Yun Ran and saw that she had a rare look of confusion on her face. He felt that something had finally happened that would leave Yun Ran bewildered as well.

Then, he briefly recounted what had happened.

This left Yun Ran speechless. She had seen many explosive things, but this was truly the first time she had ever witnessed something this explosive.

After a long silence, Yun Ran finally managed to utter, "These guys are all geniuses!"

"What should we do now?"

Yun Ran had no objection to charging into battle, but she was genuinely uninterested in investigating these kinds of troublesome matters.

"Let's wait for Xie Xuzhi to arrive. This matter is a hidden danger left behind because they didn't handle it properly back then!"

Xuan Chu wasn't exactly a benevolent person; since Yun Ran wasn't getting involved, he naturally wasn't interested in interfering either.

After trapping the souls of the two animals, Xuan Chu prepared to go to the kitchen and get something to eat.

Xie Xuzhi and his group arrived much faster than Yunran had imagined; she had thought they wouldn't arrive until at least evening.

Unexpectedly, the Special Administration's private plane arrived shortly after they finished a simple meal.

After Xie Xuzhi and his men got off the plane, they arranged for someone to take over Gu Li and the others who had been tied up by Yun Ran and the others, as well as those robots that were obviously not right, before they came to find Yun Ran.

Upon seeing Yun Ran for the first time, Xie Xuzhi frowned. Compared to last time, Yun Ran looked noticeably thinner, and her complexion appeared somewhat pale.

"You are hurt?"

Yun Ran waved her hand dismissively: "It's just a minor injury, it'll heal with some rest."

However, these words did not dispel Xie Xuzhi's worries, as he had seen Yun Ran injured before.

In the past, even when Yunran was seriously injured and unconscious, she would immediately become lively and energetic as soon as she woke up.

In short, he looks like he has plenty of blood and energy and is full of vitality.

But now Yunran looks like she's been suffering from a long illness. Not only is her complexion weak, but even her voice is much weaker.

Especially when you see Yun Ran walking, he looks noticeably unsteady, which is definitely not an ordinary injury.

However, seeing that Yun Ran was clearly unwilling to continue discussing this matter, Xie Xuzhi could only suppress his worries for the time being. "I'm sorry, when this island was allocated to your name, it was under my people's control. They didn't handle it properly, leaving behind hidden dangers."

As for whether Yunran minded it, she didn't really. After all, she got the island for free, and people are naturally more forgiving of things they get for free.

If she had bought the island with her own money, she would be the most critical person ever.

"It's alright. You can't judge a book by its cover. No one can be 100% sure that the people around them are truly their own."

Compared to her troubles, Xie Xuzhi being betrayed by her trusted confidant was clearly a worse situation.

"I heard you've gotten into a feud with the Zhang family of South China?"

Yun Ran glanced at Xie Xuzhi with some surprise, clearly not expecting that such a busy person would even know about such trivial matters.

Xie Xuzhi coughed lightly before continuing, "The Zhang family and the Jiang family of Kyoto are about to form a marriage alliance, and the Jiang family is also related by marriage to the Murong family, one of the four great families..."

Xie Xuzhi didn't say the rest, but Yunran already understood what he meant.

In short, the Zhang family was essentially the Murong family's second-in-command in South China.

The Zhao family, once the richest family in South China, was a lackey of the Xie family, one of the four major families. The Zhao family was personally destroyed by the Xie family, which will definitely change the situation in South China.

The Zhang family went to great lengths, presumably to replace the Zhao family, who were once the richest family in South China.

But the Xie family would definitely not support them, so they turned to the Murong family.

For the Murong family, this means that their lackeys have taken the initiative to come to them, and they are passively accepting it, so it doesn't count as breaking ties with the Xie family.

Wow, what a show!

"Will the Murong family directly confront me?"

Although Yun Ran wasn't that afraid, it would be very troublesome if the Murong family really wanted to target her.

"They won't."

The four major families have an unwritten agreement: their subordinates can do whatever they want, but the families themselves cannot easily intervene.

Xie Xuzhi was clearly telling her that the other side had a referee, but she had one too. Furthermore, the referee couldn't directly step onto the field, so she could cause trouble as she pleased.

Before long, someone came looking for Xie Xuzhi, clearly having discovered something important.

Xie Xuzhi immediately left in a hurry.

Seeing that Yun Ran showed no curiosity about what the Special Administration Bureau had discovered and kept yawning, Xuan Chu turned his head and went back to his work.

As darkness fell, lights shone everywhere on the island, giving it no feeling of coldness or loneliness.

In the following days, everyone else was busy, but Yunran and Xuanchu were just wandering around aimlessly.

The two even took their yacht and explored the entire surrounding sea area.

I've eaten so much seafood that I never want to eat it again.

This made the other staff at the Special Administration Bureau, who were busy as dogs, quite envious.

"Now I understand why Miss Yun doesn't go back to the Special Administration Bureau. She's living too leisurely."

"What's the use of being envious? If we had Miss Yun's abilities, we could be like the other big shots who only go out when we have a mission, and otherwise be very leisurely."

"What's wrong with being leisurely? If even Miss Lianyun is busy as a dog, then it means something terrible has happened!"
