Chapter 1358 - 1354
The Dragon Spirit didn’t understand the connection, but he respected and trusted Yun Ran’s expertise.
"Leave it to me, don’t worry!"
The field didn’t need to be opened now, the Dragon Spirit changed back to a human form and looked at the sky outside.
"It’s getting late, should we head out? Those bastards still don’t know what they are plotting!"
Just mentioning the guy who trapped him made the Dragon Spirit speak with some teeth-gritting anger.
"Hold on a bit!"
As for the issue of the Void Runes, if it were someone else, Yun Ran would definitely keep her mouth shut; who knew if they could handle the consequences?
But the Dragon Spirit was different; he had already shouldered the consequences when he helped her burn the Void Runes to create the mess before.
In this case, it was necessary to make things clear to prevent the Dragon Spirit from being calculated against without knowing.
"Let me tell you something first..."
Yun Ran explained the matter regarding the Void Runes in detail.
She also combined the clues and speculations she had previously known together.
When the last word came out of Yun Ran’s mouth.
The Dragon Spirit was a bit dumbfounded, just staring blankly at Yun Ran, his mouth moved but he didn’t know what to say.
For a long time.
He shrugged his shoulders and took a deep breath, as if he had experienced a major transformation.
At the same time, the Dragon Spirit patted his cheeks as if this would help him adapt faster.
"Oh my... hsss, these guys, they have such a background, truly terrifying, terrifying indeed!"
At this moment, the Dragon Spirit could only deeply express his thoughts, without any extra words.
Yun Ran calmly watched the Dragon Spirit digest and adapt to these things.
Fortunately, the Dragon Spirit truly had a strong heart, and because he himself was a naturally born life form.
Having lived so long, there’s a saying that the old that don’t die become crafty; having lived for thousands of years, even if he was shocked, he was not excessively unsettled.
He took some time to fully accept this hair-raising fact.
"Are you sure those guys are truly constrained by something unknown?"
The thought of how before he spat fire and burned the Void Runes’ plot away, it would be fake to claim he wasn’t worried about revenge.
But of regret, there was none; even knowing the power of the Void Runes, if Yun Ran was in trouble, the Dragon Spirit felt he would still rush up.
The bond between him and Yun Ran had long surpassed a normal interest relationship.
Hearing the Dragon Spirit’s inquiry, with curiosity evidently surpassing dread, Yun Ran’s eyes hid a trace of a smile.
"Not absolutely certain, but any energy has its limitations; it cannot expand indefinitely.
For so many years, in Xuan Sect’s historical records, the Void Runes are rarely mentioned.
This clearly indicates that these Void Runes have a high threshold that ordinary people cannot access."
The Dragon Spirit nodded, instantly understanding the basis of Yun Ran’s inference.
A high threshold means the limitations on the Void Runes are extensive.
It’s impossible for them to seek large-scale revenge.
The Dragon Spirit immediately eased his worries.
"That guy named Chi Yao probably knows a lot of insider information, how about we split up later.
I’ll deal with those Divine Hall folks; I once dug up the Divine Cauldron and learned quite a bit about the Divine Hall from some surviving Divine Servants.
Handling those folks should be enough, and you can go find Chi Yao to see what he might say!"
Although it’s confirmed that those Void Runes seeking revenge wouldn’t be easy, but just in case.
Thus it’s best to gather as much information about them as possible to avoid missing something crucial, preventing any pitfalls later.
This seemed the best arrangement.
Unfortunately, Yun Ran shook her head: "Although I don’t quite know Chi Yao’s background, I’ve sensed no malice from him towards me this time around.
However, regarding the Heavenly Book Fragment, he used such indirect means to make me aware of the Void Runes’ existence.
This suggests he cannot directly tell me about these matters; I think, he too might be subjected to certain limits.
He took the yard and Ma San with the Little Paperman to hide, likely because he can’t entangle himself with this cause."
Yun Ran isn’t someone who’d kick someone who helped her into the gutter.
To gain others’ full assistance, the most important thing is that she herself must be the one to bear all responsibilities, not shift them onto others.
The Dragon Spirit thought about it and agreed.
Although he only had a few encounters with Chi Yao, he could sense that Chi Yao was a decent person.
Now that he’s avoiding, there must be a reason.
"Alright, so let’s not look for him first, let’s go find those Divine Hall folks.
But I think this time, they really want to entangle us and it won’t be easy to refuse..."
The Dragon Spirit would prefer rejecting them directly.
Neither he nor Yun Ran were young adventurers seeking thrills anymore.
Moreover, now knowing the Heavenly Book doesn’t favor Yun Ran.
With their initial goal disrupted halfway, the Dragon Spirit was even less inclined to go to any dangerous place.
He’s not human, with a strong life force, even if he encounters anything, he’d be able to save his life.
But Yun Ran is different; no matter how skilled, she’s a flesh and blood being.
If anything were to happen, the Dragon Spirit felt he could die from rage.
"Let’s check it out first since we’re already here. Although the Heavenly Book is hopeless now, I’m more curious about how the High Priest of the Divine Hall can predict a thousand years ahead."
This matter was not something Yun Ran voiced often, but honestly, it weighed heavy on her mind.
A human who can predict a thousand years ahead, and perhaps willingly forsake their Divine Status...
Such boldness and strategy elicit admiration and unavoidable fear.
Yun Ran thought that if she had such capability, she wouldn’t be able to be so ’selfless’.
Previously, she spent huge resources summoning the ancestors to resolve these issues, which to the ancestors was just a minor affair, but they...
Some details overlooked by Yun Ran slowly surfaced in her mind.
Now Yun Ran’s attention to the Divine Hall reached its peak.
