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

Chapter 47 I'm the one who'll take your life! (2nd update)
Gu Yuan immediately slapped his mouth and hurriedly apologized, begging for forgiveness: "Boss, I was just saying. Do you think I'm the kind of person who would treat human life like dirt?"

“We’re not in Kyoto right now, nor are we in the midst of a life-or-death struggle with other families. Don’t keep talking about eliminating someone!”

Gu Yuan could only answer reluctantly, then slumped out with his head down.

As Yunran stepped out of the ecological zone, for some reason, she inexplicably turned back to look at the dead dragon vein.

Although she didn't know why the Royal Cauldron Club was located here, she had a hunch that the Royal Cauldron Club existed because of this dead dragon vein.

However, whether it's protection or suppression remains to be seen.

Especially since the Xie family is involved, it's probably a power struggle between some powerful figures, so it's best for her to stay out of it.

"Sigh, what a pity that such a good place for cultivation and recuperation is wasted."

Ginseng Fruit also felt it was a pity. Although the dragon vein was dead, it was indeed an excellent feng shui treasure land.

Unfortunately, the host is currently insignificant and has little influence, so upon seeing such a treasure trove, he can only retreat.

"Ginseng fruit, what is Gu Yuan's background? Can you find out?"

[Host, please wait a moment, I'll check right away!]

Before long, the ginseng fruit was found.

[Host, he is a member of the eldest branch of the Gu family and one of Xie Xuzhi's confidants. However, in the original storyline, he is merely a background character and shouldn't be considered very important.]

"The current situation is clearly different from the original plot. From now on, the original plot can only be used as a reference and should not be taken as absolute truth."

Thinking about the character of the male and female protagonists, the ginseng fruit suddenly realized that its host was right.

The original plot was written from the perspective of the love-hate entanglement between the male and female protagonists, with a very strong protagonist halo filter, and it was not objective at all towards the other characters.

On the way back, perhaps because Yunran had been tainted by the aura of the dragon vein, she wondered what was going on.

The Heavenly Dao's aversion to her had actually lessened considerably, and the oppressive feeling was no longer as strong.

This made Yunran feel even more that she had missed out on such a precious place for cultivation, a truly devastating loss.

However, sometimes, it's not a good thing to relax too early. For example, right now, Yun Ran was about to return to the hospital when she was bumped into the fountain pool in the square near the hospital.

Who would have thought that the pool, which was less than Yun Ran's calves high, made her choke on water several times before she could climb out.

Passersby were stunned by what they saw.

"Little girl, are you alright? How did you fall into the water like that? You need to go back and change your clothes right away, otherwise you'll definitely catch a cold."

"Oh my, you have so many bruises on your arms. Did someone bully you? Should I call the police for you?"

"This place is close to the hospital. Young lady, you should go to the hospital to get it checked out. Look, your eyes are all red. This water isn't very clean. You mustn't get an infection."

……

Hearing the concerned concern from these passersby, Yunran could only say that she had accidentally twisted her ankle, which was why she fell into the water and couldn't get up for a while.

Being unlucky is one thing, but being so blatantly humiliated is really upsetting for Yunran.

After forcibly saving face, Yun Ran returned to her ward in a disheveled state. After washing up, she lay down on the bed and fell into a deep sleep.

In a villa in Kyoto.

A beautiful noblewoman looked at the kneeling man in front of her and fiddled with her newly done manicure.

His tone was chillingly cold: "You said, that little bitch isn't dead!"

The man kneeling on the ground trembled with fear, sweat dripping from his drooping head onto the floor. "Foolish man, you don't deserve to live. Drag him away and get rid of him!"

The man's eyes were filled with despair, yet he didn't even dare to plead for mercy.

Upon hearing the beautiful lady's words, the two burly men immediately stepped forward, dragged the limp man, and quickly disappeared into the living room.

But the beautiful noblewoman was clearly not happy just because she had dealt with someone who had done a poor job.

Her eyes held a hint of hostility, which severely damaged her overall demeanor.

After calming down for a while, she picked up the phone and dialed a number she knew by heart.

"The plan failed. That little bitch is still alive, but an imperfect sacrifice should not continue to exist. Letting her live for so many more years was too good for her."

Only the beautiful noblewoman knew what was said on the other end; her previous fierce aura dissipated considerably.

"Don't worry about me. I'll take care of everyone on this line."

After hanging up the phone, the beautiful noblewoman quickly made a few more calls, and then quietly left Kyoto with most of her jewelry.

She is the most important piece in this game. If something happens to the sacrifice, even if someone protects her, she will probably suffer greatly. She needs to get out of there before the higher-ups come looking for her.

When Yunran was half asleep in the middle of the night, the door to her hospital room was pushed open, and she woke up immediately.

A man wearing a white coat, but completely covered up except for his eyes, approached her holding a syringe.

Yun Ran flipped over and kicked the man hard in the chest.

The man screamed, then quickly got up and tried to rush out the door, but to his surprise, the door had already been sealed by Yun Ran.

"who are you!"

Knowing he couldn't escape, the man turned to look at Yun Ran, his eyes filled with murderous intent, clearly intending to die together with her.

The man pulled out a scalpel, so sharp that it seemed it could cut through skin as easily as slicing tofu.

"I'm the one who wants you dead!"

"court death!"

Unfortunately, fate had to add to the chaos at this crucial moment. Yun Ran launched a flying kick, but just as it was about to hit the man, she tripped and fell hard.

The scalpel cut Yunran's arm, and now Yunran was truly enraged.

He glared fiercely at the sky outside the window, blocked the scalpel with one hand, and with the other hand smeared with blood, drew an attack talisman and injected it into the man's body.

The effect of a talisman drawn with blood is doubled; when a man is hit by such an attack talisman, all his internal organs are displaced.

With a "whoosh," he spat out a mouthful of blood, and faintly, one could even see scattered bits of flesh mixed in with the blood.

"Who sent you here!"

Knowing his mission had utterly failed, the man made a desperate decision and stabbed himself, the light in his eyes immediately dimming.

Yunran was furious. How could they still be playing those old-fashioned assassin tricks?

She tried to search for the man's soul, but was surprised to find that his body was completely empty; his soul had long been scattered.

The third watch (or midnight) is in the afternoon or evening.
