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

Chapter 72 I am your great-aunt!

After Yunran spoke a few words to the principal, the principal led his people away from the main building, while Yunran strode towards Wang Lin.

"This old turtle has gained sentience. People come and go at Principal Du's house, and I was worried that someone would recognize it and catch and eat it, so I used a concealment spell on it."

It's probably injured by the spirit-extinguishing array earlier. We'll give it some medicine to heal it later.

"So that's it."

As he spoke, Wang Lin put the turtle down, then took out a milky-white, fragrant pill from his bag and put it into the turtle's mouth.

The Special Administration Bureau has always been very tolerant of sentient beings, and of course, it also keeps records of them. This pill is the 'mark' that the Special Administration Bureau gives to these sentient beings.

After putting the old turtle down, Wang Lin asked, "What's going on with those puppets outside?"

They had already obtained the guest list for today from the servants, and based on past experience, the list likely contained 'bad people'.

Yunran recounted everything she had discovered, and then, as if remembering something, added, "I suspect that I unintentionally ruined their original plan."

Therefore, they had no choice but to choose this moment, which was the most important and happiest time for the two children, to take action.

Doing so will also extract all the remaining luck from them to the maximum extent, increasing their malevolent energy.

However, this would also expose their presence, making those seemingly coincidental events a clear indication of a conspiracy.

Wang Lin considered himself to be quite knowledgeable and experienced, and he usually had a very good temper, making him the most composed person in the entire team.

Listening to Yun Ran's reasonable reasoning, even though it hadn't been confirmed yet, he was clearly filled with anger.

"What exactly are these people trying to do, taking so long and going through such a roundabout way to cause trouble!"

What's most infuriating is that these people are like rats in the gutter, they can get into anything and even evade the consequences, making it impossible for the authorities to find them.

"The most important thing now is to find the person hiding inside. This matter is not over yet; we still need to find a way to destroy this formation."

Although I forcibly used the feng shui eye to break a hole in the formation, this formation has the function of self-repair.

As for those puppets, you can take them back after this is over; you might be able to find some clues from them.”

When it came to breaking the formation, Wang Lin's gaze towards Yun Ran immediately became somewhat eager: "I didn't expect that you even know a thing or two about these forbidden techniques. Our team has really struck gold."

Yunran: ...

Is it possible that she didn't actually understand such a sinister formation and just used brute force?

"Let's go outside and take a look first."

As soon as they arrived at the small garden, Shen Zhe and the others looked up and saw Yun Ran. Their previously worried expressions immediately relaxed.

Yun Ran was unaware that, among Shen Zhe and his team members, she represented the word "all set".

"We've found a clue; this little garden seems to have been disturbed recently..."

Everyone immediately understood what he meant. People were coming and going in the villa, and this garden was not a remote place.

If someone could tamper with this place without arousing suspicion, then there's only one possibility: that person has connections to the small garden.

"It's the gardener!"

A voice came from behind them. They turned around and saw, to their surprise, the previously honest and reliable gardener and the refined and dignified piano teacher.

One person was gripping Du Qianqian's neck, while the other held a magical artifact gleaming with black light. Du Qianqian's face was deathly pale, her hands twisted behind her back, and she looked extremely pained.

Shen Zhe and the others felt their panic and shortness of breath intensify.

Yun Ran glanced at the sky above the artificial hill, where the Spirit Extinction Array, which she had broken and which had stopped functioning, was being rapidly repaired.

"Are you all crazy? You yourselves are still trapped in this formation!"

Yu Liang's cultivation level was the lowest among them, and his feelings about it were the most direct.

The lingering power of the Spirit Extinction Array, which had just been paused, had already made him very uncomfortable, and now he could feel his cultivation level slipping away.

The two sides were locked in a standoff, and the gardener and piano teacher had lost all their previous friendliness.

"Didn't you force us into this situation? Since we can't escape, then we'll just have to make all of you pay with your lives!"

Yun Ran forcibly destroyed the Spirit Annihilation Array, temporarily stopping its operation, but at the same time, she also destroyed the path to survival that the Spirit Annihilation Array had originally left for them.

With the Special Administration Bureau's personnel conducting a thorough investigation, they will be found out soon, and the two of them will naturally not sit idly by and wait to be killed.

Yun Ran used a calming spell on Du Xi and Du Lin, and the two of them clearly fell into a deep sleep. Even if they were killed, it wouldn't achieve the result they wanted.

The two could only capture Du Qianqian as a substitute and use her blood as a sacrifice. Although the effect was not as good as that of the Du brothers, Du Xi and Du Lin, it was enough to repair the great formation.

As long as everyone inside dies, their secret will be kept.

Seeing that the two were clearly somewhat insane, Yun Ran naturally couldn't hold back any longer.

The peach wood swords in their hands flew out, and Shen Zhe and the others also activated their magical artifacts at the same time.

At this point, anyone who still says things like it's immoral to bully the weak with numbers is truly an idiot.

The two people opposite were clearly not to be underestimated either, and they quickly dodged, even using Du Qianqian as a shield.

Out of concern for Du Qianqian's life, Yunran's peach wood sword only severed the gardener's hand, which made Yunran somewhat displeased.

Shen Zhe and his friends got into a fight with the piano teacher, but they didn't gain any advantage.

This was the first time they had ever encountered such a powerful evil cultivator.

The gardener glanced at Yunran. Even though he knew that Yunran had ruined their plans before, he still found it hard to believe that Yunran had such cultivation.

"Who exactly are you? How can you possess such profound cultivation?"

"I am your great-aunt!"

Knowing he was no match for Yunran, the gardener discarded Du Qianqian, who had already bled a lot off, and then cast a blood curse, clearly intending to perish together with Yunran.

"You are worthy of it!"

Yunran cut her palm, and the blood droplets fell directly onto the stack of paper figures in her hand.

The dozen or so paper figures immediately came to life, leaping into the air and clearly dividing the tasks. Some of them used both hands and feet to tear apart the talismans that had not yet formed.

Some of the blows went straight for the gardener's face, beating and tearing at him. Soon, the gardener's entire face was disfigured and bleeding profusely.
