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

Chapter 753 Unlimited Support for You

After describing her actions and achievements, Yunran paused for a moment, intending to make a summary to enhance the effect.

"So, you're really lucky to have met someone like me who is upright and generous!"

The subtext, of course, is: the pay must be doubled!
Xie Xuzhi: ...

He was overthinking it. Yun Ran is someone who can't be judged by common sense. She's a good person, but she's also quite a headache.

"what do you want?"

Listening to Xie Xuzhi's nonchalant tone, Yunran felt as if even if she were to ask for an exorbitant sum, it would be nothing more than a drop in the ocean for him.

This made Yunran feel a little bit resentful of the rich again.

"I've found the secret book, but I need to borrow it before the Special Administration Bureau puts it into their archives."

When she first heard Long Ling mention the Heavenly Book, her immediate thought was that her terrible fate could finally be broken.

Rumor has it that if you pay a sufficient price, you can obtain everything you want to know from the celestial book.

But later, plans couldn't keep up with changes.

Although Qingfeng Temple has now established a firm foothold in the Xuanmen (Taoist sects), its deterrent power is still insufficient, so she can only rely on external forces to counter her own.

When she leaked the information, Yunran had already given up the idea of ​​taking the Heavenly Book for herself.

Xie Xuzhi agreed without hesitation: "Of course."

Let alone finding the Heavenly Book, which would require Yun Ran's great efforts, even if Yun Ran didn't exert any effort, their friendship alone would be enough.

If Yunran really needed the Heavenly Book, how could he refuse to lend it to her?

Xie Xuzhi roughly guessed what Yun Ran wanted to ask, and said somewhat uncertainly, "I've read in some ancient books that getting answers from celestial books requires paying a great price..."

Back then, many people had predicted that he was about to die, and almost everyone in the Xuanmen sect, as well as some old monsters who were neither righteous nor evil, were invited out of the mountains by the Xie family.

But those people were all helpless against him at that time.

Yunran had a way to save him, which is enough to show that Yunran was highly skilled and had a wide range of knowledge.

Even with such a person as Yunran, she was powerless against her own destiny, only able to suppress it, unable to break free.

This made Xie Xuzhi suspect that Yun Ran's problem was very serious.

To obtain a solution from the celestial book would likely come at a considerable cost.

Xie Xuzhi is the kind of person who rarely reveals his emotions in front of others. At this moment, he is genuinely worried about Yun Ran.

He was even a little worried that the price Yunran would have to pay might be so heavy that she simply couldn't afford it.

"Is there really no other way to deal with your fate...?"

Xie Xuzhi wanted to ask even more, "Did the elders of Yunran's sect also have no solution?"
Such a large Qingfeng Temple rising from the ground, it is definitely not some unorthodox sect.

The treasures Yun Ran possessed, as well as her methods, further confirmed these points.

"Of course there is a way, but the karma involved in my fate is too great. If they want to help me, the price they have to pay will be a thousand times heavier than if I tried to find a way myself."

If it weren't for the numerous restrictions, any one of the many patriarchs at Qingfeng Temple could easily have broken free from her wretched fate.

However, big shots like them cannot do whatever they want. The more powerful they are, the more they fear cause and effect.

Normally, it's fine if a younger person invites you to help out with incense offerings; you won't get too much karmic entanglement from it.

Unless faced with a crisis that threatens the extermination of their entire lineage, the ancestors will not act without regard for the consequences.

Then, Yun Ran glanced at Xie Xuzhi with some disdain. "As the head of the Special Administration Bureau, don't you know that people in the Xuanmen sect don't always do as they please? Sometimes, they are not even as quick to settle scores as an ordinary person."

Xie Xuzhi paused awkwardly for a moment. This was a bit unfair to him; he was just confused because he was concerned.

Although he was not proficient in the arts of the Xuanmen sect, he still had the basic common sense.

The more those powerful figures in the mystical arts have reached the threshold of the Great Dao, the more they fear incurring karmic consequences.

After thinking for a moment, Xie Xuzhi said, "I'll have someone bring all the treasures I've kept before."

This seemingly random sentence left Yun Ran slightly stunned.

Fortunately, Xie Xuzhi didn't intend for Yunran to guess anything and directly provided the answer.

"I can't help you much with mystical arts, but I can provide you with unlimited resources."

Yun Ran is definitely the first person to receive such a promise from the famous Young Master Xie.

Putting aside whether she was moved or not, Yun Ran's first thought was: How could there be such a good thing? Isn't this like a mouse falling into a rice jar?

Xie Xuzhi opened his heart to Yunran, but Yunran was thinking about how to get more benefits out of Xie Xuzhi.

With Xie Xuzhi's wealth and power, even a small amount of money could sustain her Qingfeng Temple for a long time.

"I didn't realize you were so loyal. Well then, I won't stand on ceremony. If you ever need anything, just come to me, it'll do!"

Even though Xie Xuzhi knew that Yun Ran's words were mostly exaggerated, he still smiled slightly because of them.

This was the first time I experienced the joy of giving away money and resources.

Fortunately, his family fortune is immense; even if he spent several lifetimes, he wouldn't be able to spend it all.

Seeing that the time was almost up, and that I had said everything that needed to be said, I realized that I had already said most of what I needed to say.

Yun Ran then said, "At this point, the person behind the scenes should know that your death tribulation has rebounded, and it's time for you, the bait, to make your move."

Upon hearing the word "bait," Xie Xuzhi's slightly upturned lips immediately turned into a straight line.

It wasn't that he was worried about any danger; he just felt that he had been targeted and schemed against since he was very young, and that this feeling was really terrible.

"Let's go."

As he spoke, Xie Xuzhi stood up.

There was a full-face mirror in the lounge; he hadn't looked at himself carefully when he came in earlier.

Now, his gaze inadvertently swept across the mirror and saw himself in it, his face pale, looking like someone who was seriously ill.

"What would happen if I took your blood-vomiting pill in my current state?"

Xie Xuzhi felt that since he had decided to pretend, he should pretend to be as convincing as possible.

Whether it would cause more suffering was not within Xie Xuzhi's consideration.

Don't assume that just because he's a pampered young master raised in a noble family, he can't endure hardship or suffering.

In fact, the higher up a person is, the more suffering and hardship they endure that is beyond the reach and imagination of ordinary people.

Otherwise, how could they gain a foothold and keep their subordinates firmly under their control?

Do you really think those people below are some kind of virtuous men and women?

They were all more ferocious than sharks, their mouths agape, waiting for someone to fall from above.
