CHAPTER 764: CHAPTER 762: GOOD FORTUNE IS ALSO A KIND OF STRENGTH (SECOND UPDATE)

Others can complete all the popular spots on the back mountain in a day, while Yun Ran and the others have spent the whole day at Scenic Valley, pressing the camera buttons until sparks fly.

As the sun was setting, Yun Ran said calmly, "It’s getting late, we should go back to eat and rest."

Two personal guides: ...

They had seen many wealthy guests, but ones like Yun Ran and the others were truly rare.

"Alright, we will take you back to the hotel now."

For dinner, they had the hotel deliver the meal to the room again. Yun Ran only took a few casual sips of soup and didn’t eat much.

Xie Xuzhi thought maybe the food wasn’t to Yun Ran’s taste.

He thought for a while and said, "What kind of dishes do you like? The Xie Family has some chefs whose ancestors were Imperial Chefs. Later, you can pick one to come to Ran Mansion."

Yun Ran’s and Ginsengfruit’s eyes immediately shone.

They have money, but descendants of Imperial Chefs are rarely found outside.

"Then I won’t be polite."

As for whether the person was sent by Xie Xuzhi to spy on them, it wasn’t something Yun Ran considered.

After eating, Xie Xuzhi went back to the room to prepare. Although they would pretend to be defeated and captured, allowing them to infiltrate smoothly.

However, during this process, they would definitely cause heavy losses to their opponents, preventing them from suspecting anything.

As the room door closed, Ginsengfruit looked at Yun Ran, "Host, shall we leave a few alive for them?"

Were it not for the plan, none of those people would be left alive.

This is not Ginsengfruit being conceited, they genuinely have that kind of ability.

"Leaving four or five is enough."

There are three people here, if too few are left, it would be hard to work their way into the Black Robed People’s ranks later.

"I’ll rest for a while first. When they arrive, take it easy."

Ginsengfruit patted his chest confidently, "Host, don’t worry, even if I haven’t eaten pork, I’ve seen pigs running, these similar scenarios have aired a lot on television."

Yun Ran nodded and went straight to sleep.

The soundproofing of the hotel room was good, and the insect chirping outside didn’t disturb Yun Ran’s rest.

It’s unclear how much time passed, but suddenly, the sound of fighting appeared abruptly.

Yun Ran suddenly opened her eyes.

Normally, someone abruptly awakened from sleep would have bleary eyes.

But Yun Ran’s eyes were clear like she had never slept, everything was a disguise.

"Host, there’s a fight next door."

Ginsengfruit hadn’t expected the group was all heading for Xie Xuzhi.

While on their side, those who attempted to sneak in hadn’t even opened the balcony.

Ginsengfruit felt a bit disappointed and remarked.

Weren’t these Black Robed People supposed to be high-level, why are they so foolish?

Could it be, what the host said before, that nowadays most of Xuan Sect is a makeshift operation, is true?

However, right now is a critical moment, these issues can be studied later.

Ginsengfruit’s expression shifted from disdain to worry without feeling contradictory.

"Master, I’m going to save Director Xie!"

Saying this, Ginsengfruit opened the door and headed to the room next door to Xie Xuzhi, wanting to help.

Meanwhile, the talisman paper on Yun Ran’s balcony was finally torn by those few people.

Yet, they had already spent much of their energy.

Although it’s June now, the nights in the mountains are still chilly.

Opening the balcony door, a cold wind blew in.

Yun Ran wrapped her robe around herself, her eyes slightly listlessly looking at the people confronting her.

"Black Robed People? Unexpected, you dare to attack me, truly audacious. Don’t you know, the Special Administration Bureau has already arrived at Five Emperors Mountain!"

The leader, looking at Yun Ran’s visibly weak expression, was still deeply afraid of her, daring not to approach directly.

However, hearing Yun Ran invoke the Special Administration Bureau,

his indescribable fear was somewhat suppressed.

With someone like Yun Ran, if she wasn’t gravely injured, anyone daring to offend her would be dealt with immediately, never mind calling on the Special Administration Bureau.

"Master Yun, if you’re sensible, just come with us, and you can avoid more injury, otherwise, the only one suffering will be yourself!"

Yun Ran hearing herself called Master Yun, immediately understood, the opponent was indeed acquainted.

"Since you’re so sure you can capture me, why bother wearing masks. Seems like you know your identity cannot be exposed.

Clearly knowing the road ahead is an abyss, why continue to err?"

Yun Ran purely intended to stall for time, not sincerely trying to persuade these people.

To join the Black Robed People, whatever the reason, she was disinterested in understanding or hearing.

People should be responsible for their choices, should they not?

"Heh, Master Yun speaks lightly, if there were better paths, who would choose another?

If it weren’t for people like you with favorable backgrounds occupying ample resources, others wouldn’t find themselves with no way out!"

From this person’s words, Yun Ran heard deep sarcasm and resentment.

This speech was hard for Yun Ran to refute, yet she wouldn’t feel guilty or introspective. A good fortune is also a type of strength, isn’t it?

"If this kind of thinking makes you feel better, I have no objection."

Next door, the sounds of the fight grew quieter, Yun Ran knew the skirmish was nearing its conclusion, meaning she needn’t stall anymore.

"If you want to make a move, just do it. You know me, surely aware of my abilities."

The leader dared not take out his Magic Artifact fearing Yun Ran would recognize him.

Though Yun Ran’s group was already captured, as long as Yun Ran drew breath, he’d wish to conceal his identity.

He immediately turned to the men brought along, "Go, let Master Yun show you a few things!"

Saying to show, in fact, meant mobbing, while he watched from behind, maybe finding a chance to strike.

As long as they capture her, leaving a single breath suffices!

One of the Black Robed People drew his Magic Artifact, his eyes flickered, he was an undercover agent placed among the Black Robed People by Shen Jun.

For many years, he was on the verge of reaching the position of confidant to the Overall Leader, about to discover their true identity.

But now, with their young mistress in danger, he couldn’t afford to maintain anonymity any longer.
