After knowing Yun Ran’s plan, the Dragon Spirit could only say, Yun Ran is truly a cunning rogue!
However, it suits his intentions perfectly. It seems there is a reason he’s been able to hang out with Yun Ran.
"Alright, we’ll work together on the inside and outside when the ti cos. Perhaps we might strike it big!"
"I’ll first check on Xuan Chu, then deal with that copper mirror!"
The little paperman responsible for protecting Xuan Chu noticed Yun Ran’s arrival and quickly opened the door to Xuan Chu’s wing room.
"Master, you’ve arrived~"
The Dragon Spirit looked at the little paperman’s bootlicking deanor and suddenly felt like he couldn’t bear to watch.
Thinking silently to himself, once he got into artifact refining, he would definitely not create such sycophantic puppets.
Yun Ran patted the little paperman’s head: "How is Xuan Chu?"
The little paperman imdiately replied: "Master, rest assured, with us protecting him, he won’t be in any trouble."
On this point, Yun Ran had no doubts. When the little papern were refined, they inherently had the function of protection.
Especially since they have been refined by Heavenly Thunder, the protection process can effectively prevent the person being protected from being disturbed by evil thoughts.
"Alright, keep a watchful eye over here."
After ensuring Xuan Chu was alright, Yun Ran reached out to retrieve the jade she had given to the Dragon Spirit.
When Mo Zhi flew out and saw Yun Ran’s brand new outfit, she imdiately began her brainless flattery.
"Master, this outfit of yours is truly dashing and unmatched!"
Yun Ran: ...
This outfit was clearly based on the previous attire of the Black Robed People, yet Mo Zhi said it was dashing?
Really lacks taste!
Yun Ran thought she was a truly magnanimous person, not angry even when soone praised her in the wrong way.
"Alright, let Er Dan out, I need to use it."
Mo Zhi, completely unaware her flattery missed the mark, upon hearing Yun Ran’s words, quickly put aside the flattery and unleashed her Ghost Realm.
To the naked eye, it looked like a transparent glass ball with sothing resembling an ostrich egg inside.
Although she had heard Er Dan had grown slightly, seeing Er Dan’s eggshell glistening and smooth, Yun Ran was still mildly surprised.
With Er Dan looking like this, if soone said it was an egg-shaped sculpture made of jade, people would believe it.
"So, these things are Er Dan’s food supply, huh."
Thinking back to how Er Dan hadn’t been provided with any food, Yun Ran inexplicably felt a bit guilty.
Everyone else, or non-human life, who had followed her had never been poorly treated.
But, this can’t really be blad on Yun Ran. Other eggs usually hatch on their own without needing extra feeding.
Having convinced herself, Yun Ran’s slight feeling of guilt quickly vanished.
Seeing Er Dan, still not fully digested and sleeping, Yun Ran reached out, and Er Dan erged from the Ghost Realm.
At the mont Er Dan ca out, Yun Ran quickly stuck several pieces of talisman paper on it, to conceal its aura.
However, no matter how quick, Er Dan’s aura still leaked out a bit.
Almost instantly, that power which had locked onto the Dragon Spirit suddenly intensified, then shifted onto Er Dan.
When the talisman paper was activated, that locked power lost its target and dispersed shortly thereafter.
This series of changes made Mo Zhi unable to resist patting her chest, glad she had the foresight to hide inside the Ghost Realm early on.
Her Ghost Realm shielded her Quasi-Ghost Emperor aura from being detected by that unknown power.
"Master, that force just now, it’s sowhat similar to the jar we discovered outside the city on that mountain, but not quite."
The Dragon Spirit also felt it, then ntioned again about the scene where the copper mirror devoured the Two-headed Resentful Spirit Snake.
"The screams emitted from the vortex in the copper mirror were quite chilling."
Suddenly, the Dragon Spirit rembered he had incidentally picked up several fragnts of that jar previously.
Before, such random things weren’t worthy of his attention.
But because of hanging around Yun Ran for so long, he gradually adopted Yun Ran’s habit of picking up bits and pieces along the way.
Just in case they might be useful.
Now it seed, the fragnts of this jar might indeed have so use.
"This is the jar for raising monsters. I exerted quite so effort and couldn’t break it, clearly it’s no ordinary item."
Now, Er Dan was in Yun Ran’s hands, and one of the jar fragnts was also with her.
"Alright, I’ll go check over there, you all be careful, don’t let anyone discover and expose your identity."
Mo Zhi did want to tag along to check it out, but that unknown power previously even detected the concealed aura of the Dragon King.
She would rather play it safe, to avoid putting the master in a position to save her later.
Don’t ask why Mo Zhi is so confident Yun Ran would save her. Just ask, because of the feeling.
Anyway, the master’s attitude in treating her is completely different from other Dark Masters treating their Ghost Servants.
Which is why Yun Ran, despite not imposing any master-servant contract on Mo Zhi, she willingly seeks to be Yun Ran’s Ghost Servant.
Yun Ran’s black cloak blended very well with the night.
Along the way, she arrived unimpeded at the courtyard arranged by the General Association mbers.
This courtyard was a private and spacious one, noticeably larger than the Dragon Spirit’s group’s place.
Without any hint, Yun Ran found the room where the copper mirror was placed among nurous wing rooms.
The General Association people must have great trust in the copper mirror’s power, considering anyone other than them who even touched the copper mirror.
At best, they suffered soul capture, at worst, they simply perished.
As a result, not only was there no guard, but even the necessary security asures were absent.
The copper mirror just boldly sat there.
Except the black cloth covering the copper mirror was made of rare fire silk, a valuable treasure.
If others entered such a room, they likely wouldn’t even glance at the covered copper mirror.
They might even think the copper mirror was an ordinary object placed in the room, insignificant.
Yun Ran took out a Demon Core as a tool for illumination.
Simultaneously, she drew her Peach Wood Sword and gently lifted the black cloth covering the copper mirror.
Reflected in the mirror was Yun Ran’s wheelchair, along with the Demon Core and Peach Wood Sword she held.
While Yun Ran gazed clearly at the person in the mirror, her heart skipped a beat.
Because the mirrored reflection was not of Yun Ran’s current appearance, but her past face.
