Cannon-Fodder Heiress Turns the Tables by Fortune-Telling-Chapter 34 Isn’t this the beginner level? (2 more updates)

Yun Ran innocently spread her hands, "I just walked in like that."

"It’s impossible, there are so many people outside, how could no one stop you, and moreover, I had set up an Array..."

Daoist Qingmu suddenly thought of something, stopped talking, and then looked Yun Ran up and down with a face full of astonishment.

Somewhat uncertainly, he asked, "You couldn’t possibly be the external assistance mentioned by the bureau, could you?"

Yun Ran smiled and nodded, "Yes, unless something unexpected happens, that should be me."

At this, the expression on Daoist Qingmu’s face changed again and again, and he even circled around Yun Ran, muttering under his breath.

"Which family’s younger generation are you from? Being so young and yet possessing such abilities, there are only a few people who can enter without breaking my Array."

Yun Ran certainly didn’t possess the quality of being modest about one’s achievements, nor did she have any interest in pretending to be a pig to eat the tiger and then slap others in the face.

Calmly she said, "The Three-tailed Demon Fox here, I was the first to discover it, then I informed the Special Administration Bureau."

"It was you!"

Daoist Qingmu, as one of the extraordinary experts stationed by the Special Administration Bureau near East Lake, found himself somewhat embarrassed.

They were unaware of the sealed Three-tailed Demon Fox at East Lake, they didn’t know when it escaped, and they were even oblivious to the fact that some people had gone missing.

The Special Administration Bureau has eighteen divisions, which ostensibly all work together like siblings, yet every division strives hard to compete with each other daily.

Watching other divisions face troubles, all eighteen divisions are in perfect sync.

When notified by the higher-ups about an issue here, their entire division nearly lost face completely.

They had arrived yesterday, but despite searching all day and night, they still hadn’t located the hideout of the Three-tailed Demon Fox.

They had no choice but to request assistance from above, and Daoist Qingmu initially thought it would be Master Jiechen from the neighboring division, but instead, it turned out to be a young girl.

However, given how easily Yun Ran could avoid the reinforcements deployed by the bureau and enter his Array effortlessly, this girl was no ordinary person.

Daoist Qingmu promptly reined in his somewhat odd temperament.

If anyone who knew him were here, seeing this friendly Daoist Qingmu now, they would probably think they had mistaken him for someone else.

"How may I address you, friend? I am Daoist Qingmu from Donglin Division."

"My name is Yun Ran, I am a high school student at Hai City Xinghua School."

A flicker of surprise crossed Daoist Qingmu’s eyes; if he wasn’t mistaken, ninety-nine percent of Hai City Xinghua’s students were from wealthy families.

Within their circle, many had taken in disciples from wealthy families, but he hadn’t heard of any whose disciples were exceptionally outstanding.

But now wasn’t the time to inquire about these things; the matter at hand was pressing—they needed to locate the Three-tailed Demon Fox and rescue the captured individuals.

"This Huixin Garden is vast, and the seal on the Three-tailed Demon Fox has not yet been fully lifted. To ensure absolute safety, I need you to guard the rear when we discover its true form."

After entering Huixin Garden, Daoist Qingmu discovered that this garden seemed to have been built specifically to suppress the Three-tailed Fox, as it contained a massive Demon Extermination Array.

Any demon suppressed within this Array would disintegrate into ash once the time came.

He had checked the records; if nothing unexpected happened, in ten years, the Demon Extermination Array would completely annihilate that Three-tailed Demon Fox.

But someone, stirring up trouble, altered some arrangements in the garden and even removed some of the trees, thereby damaging the Array.

The Three-tailed Demon Fox must have taken advantage of that moment to split a portion of its Primordial Spirit to escape.

This Demon Extermination Array was highly complex; the records passed down over the years were also incomplete, and he was unable to restore it.

Moreover, since the garden itself was part of the Array, the damaged Array also interfered with his investigation, preventing him from locating where the true form of the Three-tailed Demon Fox had been suppressed.

He dared not carelessly touch the damaged Array, so he had to set up another enhanced defensive Array outside.

To prevent the Array from being disturbed and the Three-tailed Demon Fox seizing the chance to escape, he needed a helper.

"No problem!"

Yun Ran took out a well-worn Compass from her bag and began wandering around, muttering under her breath.

Daoist Qingmu followed behind Yun Ran, watching how each time she precisely avoided the attacks emitted by the Demon Extermination Array, eliminating his last shred of doubt.

"It should be under that pond!"

Daoist Qingmu’s eyes lit up; his calculations had suggested that location as well.

Yun Ran had just put away the Compass when she saw Daoist Qingmu beginning to shed his outer robe and twisting his waist.

Yun Ran looked at him in astonishment, "Daoist Qingmu, what are you doing?"

"I’m going down to catch the Three-tailed Demon Fox. This place is owned by the public, and although we are here to capture the demon, we should avoid causing any damage as much as possible, so we don’t have to deal with those in charge of logistics constantly nagging us about tight budgets."

Yun Ran: ...

Okay, tight budget seems to be the mantra of these departments.

"No need, I have a better method."

Daoist Qingmu watched, eyes wide, as Yun Ran pulled a Little Paperman from her bag, which even had eyes and a mouth.

Seeing a stranger nearby, the Little Paperman shyly covered its face.

"Go, and bring up that Three-tailed Demon Fox from below!"

The Little Paperman nodded, and then with a "hey" sound, it jumped directly into the water, soon disappearing from sight.

Daoist Qingmu watched this scene, stunned, for a long time before finding his voice, "You actually know the Paperman Technique!"

"What’s so strange about that? Isn’t this a beginner’s level skill?"

Yun Ran swore, she definitely didn’t mean to boast extravagantly; this was indeed the first skill she had mastered.

At that time, she was young, lazy, and not talkative; besides having to study, she also had to clean the great hall.

To help herself, she created many Little Papermen to do the cleaning, saving her a lot of time, although, of course, she also got beaten up quite a lot for this.

While they were talking, the Little Paperman emerged from the water, holding a white fox that looked on its last legs.

"Master, this fox is very fierce; it tried to tear me apart, so I gave it a beating~"

Despite the Little Paperman’s formidable combat prowess, it now looked quite aggrieved.

Looking at the immobile Three-tailed Fox, the phrase ’taking advantage and still acting innocent’ immediately came to Daoist Qingmu’s mind.

Daoist Qingmu was somewhat speechless, but very discerningly diverted his gaze and then took out a Treasure Bag to store the Three-tailed Demon Fox.

"Thank you, Young Friend Yun Ran. I will handle the follow-up matters."
