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

Chapter 701 The Little Paper Doll's Sense of Superiority (2 Updates)
Yunran, ever the helpful one, said, "I'll have someone send you a replacement invitation later."

Deep down, they thought that a relationship where they could use each other was fine, at least they could coexist peacefully.

Unbeknownst to them, Wan Qiyu on the other end of the phone was filled with emotion, followed by guilt.

As Yun Ran's sworn brother, he not only failed to help her much, but also repeatedly used Yun Ran's connections to achieve his own goals.

The more Wan Qiyu thought about it, the more excited he became. His adoptive father had given him a second chance at life, and Yun Ran had helped him a lot...

Meeting this father and daughter was truly a blessing he had earned in his past life.

After hanging up the phone, Yunran had already made up her mind about 80% and was just waiting for the little paper doll to return.

Yun Ran had no idea that, in the eyes of many people, she was now seen as one of two completely different extremes.

Those who benefited, such as Gu Yuan, the blind Taoist priest, and the younger generation of the Special Administration Bureau who were eager for credit...

In the eyes of these people, Yun Ran is their benefactor, making their future bright and promising.

In the eyes of those whose 'shameless' deeds were exposed by Yun Ran, such as the Zhang family, the former richest family Zhao family, and those members of the Xuanmen Association who were implicated...

In these people's eyes, Yun Ran was like a plague god, because they had really suffered a great deal because of Yun Ran.

However, even Yunran knew that she wouldn't care, after all, she wasn't gold that everyone would like.

That evening, the little paper figure returned, bringing back more detailed information.

Currently, there seems to be no chaos on the surface in South China, but behind the scenes, many people have been investigated and dealt with.

Most of the problematic people were removed from their posts under various respectable pretexts, while many people with good character and ability were promoted.

The Special Administration directly controlled most of the power, allowing the chaos of embezzlement and mutual cover-ups to be effectively regulated.

"I understand, you may all leave."

After the paper figures were dismissed, Yunran then called Xie Xuzhi.

Xie Xuzhi asked directly, "Have you thought it through?"

"Ah."

Xie Xuzhi was not surprised by this answer at all. Given Yun Ran's mind, it would be strange if she refused something where the benefits clearly outweighed the drawbacks.

"Alright, from now on, Qingfeng Temple will be a member of the third-party Xuanmen supervision system. Whether it's people from the Special Administration Bureau or other people from Xuanmen, as long as there is anything unreasonable, Qingfeng Temple has the right to issue a corresponding warning."

"I'll do the work, don't worry!"

Even if Gu Yuan had said this, Xie Xuzhi would have had some doubts, but when Yun Ran said it, he truly had no doubts whatsoever.

"Ok, I know."

Just as he was about to hang up, Xie Xuzhi added, "I have to go abroad for your coming-of-age ceremony and won't be able to come. However, I've sent you a generous gift."

When Yunran heard the first sentence, her instinct was to say, "It's okay, it's alright if you can't come."

As a result, she heard the following phrase, "a generous gift," and Yunran's eyes immediately crinkled with laughter. She loved receiving generous gifts the most.

It's a pity, this coming-of-age ceremony only happens once in a lifetime. Other birthday parties and such certainly don't carry the weight of this.

"Of course, important business comes first!"

There's one more thing Yunran didn't say: it's not considered impolite if the gift is given but the person isn't present.

After hanging up the phone, Yunran jumped right onto the bed.

Suddenly, a warm sensation surged into Yunran's body.

This feeling is very familiar; it's the same feeling I had every time golden light of merit surged forth before.

Unfortunately, Yunran's abilities are now sealed, and her 'Heavenly Eye' is naturally unusable, so she can no longer see the golden light of merit.

But it doesn't matter, she can't see it, but the little paper figures can. They were pasted on the balcony of Yunran's main room, and they saw with their own eyes countless golden rays of merit flowing into Yunran's room from outside, like fireflies in the night.

Just as they were feeling somewhat surprised and envious, a considerable amount of golden light of merit also flew in front of them.

The naturally lively little paper doll could no longer remain calm and immediately jumped very high.

They reached out and caught the golden rays of merit that flew to them, one in each hand, just like catching fireflies.

"Wow, it's so bright and warm, not even hot to the touch!"

"I have five!"

"I have four!"

"Haha, I have ten!"

“There are even more masters, so many that I can’t count them all.”

……

Although Yunran's room was soundproof, the little paper figures were clearly oblivious to the fact that they pushed open the glass door of the balcony as soon as they received the golden light of merit.

One by one, they flew up to Yunran, looking like they wanted praise.

Yunran: ...

With so many little paper figures chattering away in my ears, it was certainly lively, but with so many voices mixed together, it was just like a busy downtown area.

"Go check on Xuan Chu's side!"

One of the paper figures opened its mouth and swallowed the golden light of merit it was holding, then vanished in a flash.

Xuan Chu sat on the bed, somewhat dazed, looking at the golden light of merit surrounding him. His eyes were clearly blank.

Just now, when he was half asleep, he felt something rush into his body.

His first thought was that Yunran or the little paper doll was playing some kind of prank.

Suddenly, I opened my eyes wide, and what I saw was this scene before me...

As a resident of Tiandao Village, he knew better than anyone how difficult it was to obtain the Golden Light of Merit.

Xuan Chu rubbed his eyes; the golden light of merit was still hovering nearby.

He pinched his leg again, and ouch!
Just as Xuan Chu was lost in self-doubt, the little paper figure floated in through the crack in the door.

Just then, I saw Xuan Chu start pinching his own face again.

"It really hurts, so it's not a dream?"

Little paper doll: ……

Pshaw~ They're from Tiandao Village, aren't they? They're making a fuss over nothing. If you spend enough time with their owners, you'll see these things all the time.

"it is true!"

Xuan Chu looked up at the little paper figure. The room was dark, but both Xuan Chu and the little paper figure could clearly see everything in the room in the darkness.

Not to mention, there is still a lot of golden light of merit in the room right now.

To be fair, the golden light of merit in Xuan Chu's room was much greater than theirs, but compared to the master, it was pitifully small.

The little paper doll's sense of superiority immediately rose.

"It's just a little bit of golden light from merit, don't be fooled!"

The little paper doll's tone was so obvious that Xuan Chu couldn't ignore it even if he wanted to.

"Yunran sent you? She also has these golden lights of merit on her side?"
