accelerated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before long, another white Ancient Rabbit Demon was captured, and its bones were also found.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When they re-entered the secret passage, there were still attacks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, without the Ancient Demon Beast maintaining the array, these paths were no longer a problem for the Special Administration Bureau.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon, they reached the place the Little Paperman mentioned, where the dome was indeed covered with sparkling gemstones.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A man dressed in a black robe sat cross-legged on the altar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xie Xuzhi had a rough guess as to who that person was; seeing him sitting motionlessly, he probably had sacrificed himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The energy light shield that the Little Paperman previously couldn’t easily break through now shattered with a single poke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This clearly showed how effective the Ancient Demon Beast had been in reinforcing the passage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the energy light shield broke, two-thirds of the sparkling gemstones on the dome turned directly into dust.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It fell like winter snow, rustling down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The remaining one-third started to dim, in sharp contrast to what they had seen before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It seems these gemstones aren’t just simple stones; they likely provided energy for that previous array and light shield.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dragon Spirit, who was inherently fond of shiny objects, especially those golden and glittering, felt a pang of regret seeing these gemstones disappear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What a pity, only a few are left, and they’re worthless now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dragon Spirit didn’t act further as he had no interest in other matters besides the gemstones.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Special Administration Bureau team began systematically inspecting the area to ensure there was no more danger and that it was suitable for a long stay.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were professionals, needing no instructions to start working methodically.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xie Xuzhi shifted his gaze to the person on the altar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The altar here was slightly different from those ancient altars, incorporating elements from both past and present.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it weren’t for the altar, they might not have regarded this as a sacrificial platform, just a secret chamber with some objects.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Little Paperman was the first to step up, hopping around and testing all sorts of things.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then he turned to Xie Xuzhi and said, \"No problem, you can come up now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xie Xuzhi thanked the Little Paperman, then walked step by step toward the black-robed figure sitting on the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such actions naturally didn’t require Xie Xu to handle personally.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Little Paperman lifted the hood of the black-robed man, revealing his true face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A gaunt, skeletal man, who looked like he starved to death, came into Xie Xuzhi’s sight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though the man’s features were changed, Xie Xuzhi instantly recognized him as his teacher Jia.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was clear he had sacrificed all his flesh, causing him to look like this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Little Paperman cautiously glanced at Xie Xuzhi, worried he might be upset.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Xie Xuzhi’s face remained calm, without the expression the Little Paperman feared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Teacher Jia, this time, you are truly dead.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Little Paperman quickly echoed, \"Yes, absolutely, dead as a doornail, definitely won’t reappear in a few decades!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xie Xuzhi: ...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Uh, such banter wasn’t really necessary.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dragon Spirit was likely bored, slowly stepping over to see what was happening.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When he saw the tubes on the altar, Dragon Spirit curiously pulled one out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was just a casual action.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, he did discover a problem, sensing a faint scent from the tubes akin to what they encountered inside the Demon-locking Tower.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Could it be that the fog encountered inside the Demon-locking Tower was caused by this person?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If that’s the case...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hiss!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dragon Spirit’s eyes widened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he guessed correctly, these black-robed people could control the Artifact Spirit lying in the Crystal Coffin, with the fog being the key to awakening the spirit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When contracting the Demon-locking Tower, Dragon Spirit and Yun Ran each contracted half.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yun Ran contracted the tower’s main body, while Dragon Spirit contracted the Artifact Spirit, which was currently sleeping quietly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Dragon Spirit sensed the scent from the tubes, the contracted little figure involuntarily moved.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, Dragon Spirit could confirm that this fog could indeed awaken the Artifact Spirit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing Dragon Spirit’s voice, Xie Xuzhi turned and asked, \"What have you discovered?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dragon Spirit wasn’t planning to reveal the matter about contracting the Artifact Spirit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He immediately shook his head: \"Nothing, just thought these black-robed people are truly insane, willing to sacrifice their lives for anything!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xie Xuzhi detected the concealment in Dragon Spirit’s tone but didn’t intend to pursue it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone has secrets they wish to keep.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dragon Spirit, previously uninterested in the rules running this chamber,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>now felt intrigued.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dragon Spirit genuinely wanted to know where the fog came from.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The gemstones in this space and the altar, what roles did they play?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking it over, he walked over to the busy Special Administration Bureau team.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dragon Spirit didn’t interfere, occasionally asking a question, and kept all the information to himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Awaiting his return to Qingfeng Temple to consult with his master~\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Junior Master: How did he not know he had an apprentice, and when did he become an elder compared to Dragon Spirit?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An essential breakthrough was made in the central region of Death Mountain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, Yun Ran finally returned to Five Emperors Mountain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The base of the mountain was bustling as ever, crowded with people, leaving no place to park, only a distant hotel to stop at.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Residents of the area could take the hotel’s shuttle bus directly to the foot of Five Emperors Mountain, which was quite convenient.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yun Ran, along with Ginsengfruit, appeared almost like ordinary tourists, leisurely waiting for the shuttle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Yuan, aware of Yun Ran’s arrival, quickly set aside tasks that were making his head spin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was descending the mountain to greet Yun Ran, using it as an excuse to get some fresh air!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone knows that power is captivating, but it can also exhaust you like a dog!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Yun Ran reached the foot of Five Emperors Mountain with other hotel guests, he saw Gu Yuan from afar, grinning wildly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ranran, you finally arrived. These past days, I’ve been counting the days with my fingers.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Despite Gu Yuan’s apparent vitality, exhaustion was evident beneath his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>",1035,"2026-06-06T11:49:08.602Z",1,"novelbin.me","77215c7dad0d73c8fc2fe5a6677fb0e5dfed8f6d742fa53baa9efe418c60d21a","cannon-fodder-heiress-turns-the-tables-by-fortun-chapter-926","cannon-fodder-heiress-turns-the-tables-by-fortun-chapter-924",1219,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fcannon-fodder-heiress-turns-the-tables-by-fortun-cover.jpg"]
