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

Chapter 685 A Day of Cold, Hunger, and Sleepiness

Zhang Weilin coughed up a mouthful of blood, but because of the evil energy supporting her, she didn't even feel any pain in her body.

However, being sent flying by Yun Ran's stick was completely unacceptable to Zhang Weilin.

She looked at her hands, then at Yunran, and finally a cracked expression appeared on her face.

"How could this be?"

If Yun Ran could subdue her so easily, then her previous efforts to raise a ghost and pursue ultimate power were a complete joke.

Zhang Weilin got up, and Yun Ran's wooden stick flew through the air again.

It was clearly a message to Zhang Weilin: "Come on, if you dare, I'll beat you to a pulp!"
Under normal circumstances, a person whose body is possessed by evil spirits can only retain a limited amount of consciousness, and their behavior and actions are basically driven by evil thoughts.

However, just as Yun Ran had gotten into position and was waiting, Zhang Weilin suppressed her evil thoughts and abruptly stopped in her tracks.

It is evident that even someone on the verge of losing their mind can regain their rationality when faced with overwhelming power.

Yun Ran chuckled softly, clearly pleased with Zhang Weilin's tact.

If Zhang Weilin were still single-mindedly relying on the power she gained by infusing her body with evil energy and wanting to die, then she would have no choice but to break her bones.

Yunran's laughter was a silent mockery to Zhang Weilin at that moment.

Of course, she wanted to rush over without a care in the world, and preferably tear Yunran to shreds.

She even planned her escape route, so that when she was rescued, people would find that Yunran had died at her hands.

She could easily claim that she was harmed by evil practitioners without her knowledge.

Just like many people today, who clearly indulge in their evil but insist on saying it's due to being drunk.

If they had truly lost their minds, why didn't they go directly to the police, their superiors, or other important people to cause a drunken scene?

All subsequent explanations are nothing more than excuses for cleaning up the mess.

Yun Ran brandished the wooden stick in her hand, and Zhang Weilin inexplicably felt a pain in her leg, so she took a step back.

This made Yunran feel extremely bored.

However, she did not put down the wooden stick in her hand, even though she could not see through the origin of the curse on Zhang Weilin.

But her intuition told her that it wasn't a good thing.

Even though she was protected by the Qingfeng Temple's restrictions, no evil thing could invade her body and soul.

However, I still feel a bit creepy for some reason, so it's best not to get close.

Intuition, especially among those in the Xuanmen (Taoist school), can generally be used as a basis for judgment; the higher one's cultivation level, the more accurate their intuition.

Yun Ran thought for a moment, then took a few steps forward. Even though she hadn't done anything, it startled Zhang Weilin so much that she took several steps back.

But because she retreated too quickly, she fell backward and landed on her bottom.

Even though she can't use the power of the Xuanmen sect anymore, she still has such an intimidating aura.

Yun Ran chuckled, then raised her hand and used the crystal shard tied to the end of the wooden stick in her hand to scratch the ground.

As easily as cutting tofu, the 38th parallel was drawn on the ground.

"Don't cross this line, or I'll make sure you don't even have a moment of peace."

Zhang Weilin doesn't have long to live. Although Yunran dislikes her and they even have a grudge, she's already in such a miserable state, so there's no need for Yunran to go through the trouble of taking action against her.

Allowing Zhang Weilin to fend for herself in her final days was already her last act of mercy.

When Yunran drew the 38th parallel, the crystal fragments did not make any harsh noise when they came into contact with the ground.

Zhang Weilin's gaze fell on the crystalline fragments at the tip of the wooden stick, glittering and appearing quite sharp. Unexpectedly, they were indeed very sharp.

This brought Zhang Weilin's mind, which had been overwhelmed by malice, back to its normal state slightly.

She seemed to finally remember that it was a small fragment that had torn a hole in the rope binding her, allowing her to be rescued.

It was clearly impossible for her to let Yunran go so easily; she was only holding back for the time being because she was wary of Yunran.

After thinking for a moment, Zhang Weilin looked up and easily spotted the location of the light.

The small fragments in Yunran's hand and on the ground were clearly from the lighting device.

Zhang Weilin's eyes, whose whites had been stained pure black by evil energy, rolled slightly—well, of course, it was impossible to tell how they rolled.

Once Yunran was exhausted and fell asleep, she leaped up and snatched an even larger crystal shard...

Yunran had no idea what Zhang Weilin was thinking, nor was she interested in knowing.

She seemed to have easily repelled Zhang Weilin, but that skillful move still required effort.

Yunran, who had been starving all night, felt even hungrier now.

Just as I was thinking this, my stomach joined in the fun, starting to rumble loudly.

Yunran: ...

After waiting all night, Xuan Chu still couldn't find her, so Yun Ran stopped hoping that anyone else would find her from the outside.

The conditions here are really harsh; there's no food and nowhere to sleep.

Although she wasn't afraid of hardship, if it was too hard, there was no need to force herself to endure it; she needed to leave this awful place as soon as possible.

Yunran held the wooden stick with crystal fragments tied to it and poked at the left and right sides.

She didn't know what she had accidentally touched, but Yunran instantly felt the temperature drop.

After a short while, her hands and feet began to feel cold.

Compared to before, the temperature has dropped by at least ten or twenty degrees.

Yunran rubbed her arms, and then stepped on the instep of her other foot with her bare foot.

It looks a bit like a golden rooster standing on one leg.

Her originally brightly colored loungewear now appeared somewhat dull in color.

"What kind of awful place is this? How can there be such a dense concentration of yin energy? It's practically a natural freezer!"

For a fleeting moment, Yunran suspected that Rong Gu was doing this on purpose; if she couldn't kill her, she was going to freeze her to death!

Yun Ran was in a bad mood, but on the other side of the 38th parallel, Zhang Weilin seemed to have received a great tonic and began to frantically absorb these evil energies.

The wounds on her body began to change little by little.

The fair and smooth skin that had been meticulously maintained at great expense was now covered by layers of something that looked like scales.

Unfortunately, there was no mirror here. Otherwise, Yunran would really like to show Zhang Weilin her current inhuman and ghostly state.

The opponent was visibly growing stronger.

Yunran didn't panic. She found the jade pendant where Mo Zhi lived in the corner of her clothes.

"Get out here and get to work! Get rid of this yin energy, it's freezing!"

Cold, hungry, and sleepy days—whoever loves them can live them!
