I definitely can’t keep up with you, who can fly.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially seeing the Electric Flower sizzling in the Little Paperman’s hand, Gu Yuan truly felt a bit envious of its constitution at that moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As it seemed, not only was it specialized in restraining evil spirits, but even the Gu worms refined using this Secret Technique recoiled at the sight of the Little Paperman.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s a pity he’s of flesh and blood, otherwise, he’d really consider using some Heavenly Thunder to temper his body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh, found it!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Yuan heard the voice of the Little Paperman but didn’t catch sight of it at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as he was about to ask what the Little Paperman had found, it suddenly flashed before him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though he already knew that the Little Paperman’s speed couldn’t be discerned with the naked eye, Gu Yuan still felt a slight tremor in his heart seeing it showcase its speed this way.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Come with me, I found the Mother Gu that can control you, and it’s so pretty!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing the first part, Gu Yuan was pleased, but the latter part made him show a look of resentment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this point, who cares whether the Gu worm is pretty or not?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Little Paperman led Gu Yuan quickly to a place that looked like a treasure room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An imposing stone door blocked their path.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Yuan glanced at the Little Paperman: \"Is the Gu worm you mentioned in here?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Little Paperman nodded: \"Yes, I just sensed that there are many Gu worms inside. I went to see for myself!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Yuan examined it carefully; the stone door appeared seamless with no signs of ever being opened. How did the Little Paperman see through?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Yuan’s image consciousness could be quite burdensome. For instance, now he really wanted to know how the Little Paperman got in, yet straightforwardly asking seemed somewhat low of him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, even if he didn’t understand, Gu Yuan had to maintain a calm facade.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Little Paperman, unaware of Gu Yuan’s convoluted thoughts, simply buried its head into a crack beside them after bringing Gu Yuan over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then it twisted its body determinedly and wriggled through within moments.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After ten seconds, the Little Paperman emerged again, rubbing its head awkwardly as if mirroring a human expression in embarrassment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oops, I forgot you’re different from me. I can squeeze through, but you can’t~\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Yuan: ...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sooner or later, he would embarrass himself utterly in front of Yun Ran and the Little Paperman.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After clearing his throat, Gu Yuan said, \"It’s okay, I’ll figure out how to open this stone door.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Anyway, they had ample time at the moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The people of the Gu God Hall were all ’punished to kneel’ outside by the Dragon Spirit; none dared disobey it with its presence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This actually facilitated their exploration and assessment of this place without any hindrance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their primary goal was to investigate matters concerning the group related closely to Gu God Hall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Finding them would then lead to uncovering whoever has been secretly orchestrating events against them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They could also locate clues about the missing individuals of the Xuan Sect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for searching for the Mother Gu to dispel his safety threat, that was merely incidental.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Little Paperman also helped search, though it could easily smash the stone door with a slap.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The problem was that behind this stone door lay a temperature specifically conducive for those Gu worms’ survival. If it shattered the door, an abrupt change might cause the worms to perish instantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Much like how those bacteria cultured in school laboratories would perish should any parameters alter slightly, as said in those short videos.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With assistance from the Little Paperman, Gu Yuan quickly found the switch for the stone door, but noticed a special outfit placed nearby.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After contemplating for a moment, Gu Yuan put the outfit on.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Heavy sounds emanated from the direction of the stone door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s open~\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A chill and tingle spread through Gu Yuan’s body instantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside the treasure room, white mist billowed out due to the opened door, flowing to the doorway.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Gu Yuan hadn’t worn the provided outfit and special goggles, the white mist might have caused him to become blind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as he stepped into the treasure room, the stone door closed automatically behind him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pausing briefly, Gu Yuan waited to adjust to the environment before surveying the situation inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Neatly lined shelves and Gu worms of various types encased in massive glass containers made the place resemble a specimen laboratory.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suppressing his inner shock, Gu Yuan scanned row by row.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Until his gaze landed on a child sitting obediently inside a glass chamber.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A foreboding feeling surged through Gu Yuan. In that moment, he had no desire to search for the Mother Gu of his Love Poison.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bypassing other glass encasements, he approached the child, unclear if it was a boy or girl.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unprompted, the child opened their eyes, gazed at Gu Yuan—as if realizing he wasn’t their usual feeder—and after blinking, closed their eyes again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"These bastards!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Yuan cursed under his breath, eager to find the mechanism to open the glass chamber.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such a small child trapped here, who could tell how scared they were?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Little Paperman had already inspected the entire room, now hovering by Gu Yuan’s side, curiously asking, \"Weren’t you here to find the Mother Gu?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Yuan knew the Little Paperman possessed spiritual wisdom, yet its thought process differed somewhat from humans’.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For instance, any person with normal moral values would instinctively prioritize saving a child in distress, given the ability.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the Little Paperman saw rescuing the child as having little relevance to itself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Yuan’s eyes darkened. He couldn’t blame a Magic Artifact (Little Paperman) for lacking empathy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Patience guiding him, he explained, \"I can’t stand by and watch a child suffer while I do nothing. Their safety takes precedence over my search for the Mother Gu!\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1055,"2026-06-06T11:49:03.563Z",1,"novelbin.me","fd6afd6f22e56e45e51102dfffac8217dedcf45e486fe912a062606e46f010c5","cannon-fodder-heiress-turns-the-tables-by-fortun-chapter-630","cannon-fodder-heiress-turns-the-tables-by-fortun-chapter-628",1219,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fcannon-fodder-heiress-turns-the-tables-by-fortun-cover.jpg"]
