Chapter 1278: Chapter 1274: I Don’t Agree with You Taking Such a Risk!
Dragon Spirit didn’t understand what Chi Yao meant by saying those words, pouted, and felt that this person was really a bit too petty.
Wherever he and Yun Ran were, all rules had to make way for them.
Anyway, it’s just stealing something from the Murong Family, how big a deal could it be!
Wait a minute!
Murong Family, why does that sound so familiar?
Dragon Spirit suddenly looked at Yun Ran: "This Murong Family, could it be the one from Moonlight City?"
Although that Murong Family was buried in the long river of time later, it doesn’t mean that the family wasn’t powerful.
Now, with the little they had in hand and Yun Ran’s family background, it’s going to be troublesome to compete with a prosperous family.
If only there were a branch of Qingfeng Temple or a division of the Special Administration Bureau in this world, such worries wouldn’t exist.
Yun Ran clearly understood Dragon Spirit’s meaning, but at this moment, the most important thing wasn’t whether they could gather enough resources.
She looked at Chi Yao: "Forcibly altering past events, how big is the impact on subsequent historical progress, and what kind of price do I have to pay for this?"
The earlier question from Chi Yao was actually asking Yun Ran if she could bear the cost of changing predetermined events.
While calculating in his heart, if the items were insufficient, he’d pull off a few Dragon Scales or extract some Dragon Blood to make up the numbers. However, Yun Ran’s words suddenly nailed Dragon Spirit to the spot.
"What are you talking about!!!"
Dragon Spirit only knew that this Dream Realm had existed for many years, containing some information about the High Priest of the Divine Hall, and also some about the Heavenly Book.
However, he hadn’t paid any attention to how everything in this Dream Realm were events that had happened in the past.
And they were mere spectators of this Dream Realm.
If they did nothing, perhaps when a new cycle began, they might find a chance to return.
But if they stirred up something among these events, changing some critical nodes, no one could predict the consequences.
Having lived for thousands of years, this naturally nurtured Dragon Spirit understood more than anyone what it meant to pull one thread and affect the whole tapestry.
Sometimes, even a tiny droplet of water is enough to change the entire situation.
Thinking of this, Dragon Spirit’s expression became serious, he stood up directly and cast a resolute veto.
"No, I don’t agree with you taking such a risk!"
If the subsequent historical progress develops positively, then forget it, but this possibility can almost be ignored.
Dragon Spirit’s entire dignity was unleashed, evidently trying to suppress Yun Ran and make her sober.
This was the first time since Dragon Spirit was forcibly contracted by Yun Ran that he acted so harshly towards Yun Ran; he couldn’t just watch Yun Ran’s reckless actions.
"I tell you, I’m also a disciple acknowledged by the master, considering age, I count as your senior brother!
No matter what your reasons are, I absolutely won’t allow you to take this risk, even if you bring in the Heavenly King Father, it won’t work!"
Dragon Spirit’s oppressive aura also had an impact on Yun Ran, making her frown slightly.
As for the Little Tower Spirit, it was directly knocked unconscious the moment Dragon Spirit’s pressure was released.
Little Paperman was also affected, struggling to clutch its own chest as if it was finding it hard to breathe.
It wanted to rush into the middle to bear some of the pressure for Yun Ran, but its body seemed to be frozen in mid-air.
It was at this moment that Little Paperman truly sensed Dragon Spirit’s power, clearly not something low-level puppets like them could withstand.
Throughout, only Chi Yao was unaffected; he continued sipping the Medicine Liquid Essence at a leisurely pace.
If anyone had counted carefully, they’d know this was already Chi Yao’s fifth cup. freewēbnoveℓ.com
If it were someone else, enduring such pure medicinal power would have led to exploding from within at worst, or at least bleeding from the seven orifices, but he seemed completely unfazed.
And at this moment, Chi Yao was only but a fraction of his peak power, one couldn’t even begin to imagine how terrifying his peak strength was.
Facing Dragon Spirit’s grouchy face, Yun Ran didn’t intend to stick her cold face on his cold behind.
With a slight raise of her eyelid, she nonchalantly said, "Are you afraid of death, or are you afraid I might drag you down?"
These words in Dragon Spirit’s ears turned into blatant provocation and distrust.
Dragon Spirit was instantly disheartened, only thinking Yun Ran was simply an ungrateful person.
Previously, humans said that even if Demon Beasts cultivated into human forms, they were void of human nature and even more devoid of conscience.
Now, the one without conscience was clearly Yun Ran, this human.
It’s a pity for him, always thinking for Yun Ran, putting his life at risk, accompanying Yun Ran again and again.
Just thinking their bond was at least a life-and-death one, and now they were also considered fellow disciples.
Heart aching bitterly, Dragon Spirit suddenly lost strength, the original strong oppressive force deflating like a punctured ball.
Dragon Spirit snorted coldly, turned his head away from Yun Ran, sat down heavily, tone full of self-mockery.
"Humph, I’m just bringing this upon myself, from now on, I’m sealing my heart to become a cold and unfeeling Dragon Spirit!"
"Pfft~~~"
Yun Ran really couldn’t hold back and burst out laughing.
Though it was somewhat unkind, she truly couldn’t restrain herself.
Yun Ran hadn’t expected Dragon Spirit to be such a drama-loving guy.
She said those words purely because she knew, Dragon Spirit, who seemed so accepting, was actually much more stubborn than Xuan Chu, that guy from Heavenly Dao Village.
So, only by poking him where it hurts could she break the cycle of his stubbornness.
In a way, Yun Ran understood Dragon Spirit better than he understood himself, hence he was completely under her control.
Seeing Dragon Spirit finally calm down, at least now he was willing to listen to her talk about other matters.
She then spoke: "Have I ever told you that my annoying Life Chart, if not broken, will eventually eat away all my power, reaching that point, even with Qingfeng Temple’s legacy on me, I’d still face inevitable death."
The world they were in evolved from a novel, and Yun Ran’s identity was destined to be short-lived, an inescapable stepping stone, this was the power of the plot.
If not for her having many life-saving methods from Qingfeng Temple, she would have died many times.
But even so, the power within her body was still being consumed at a subtle pace.
Yun Ran could accept dying for all life, for Qingfeng Temple, for her unwavering path.
However, she couldn’t accept dying in such an absurd manner by exhaustion.
