151 More Rumors

For the next few days, Yun Ran stayed in the mansion.

But Thunderbolt would gather the latest gossip from outside and relay it to Yun Ran.

“That’s strange. Miss Yun, why haven’t there been fewer rumors about you being a demonic cultivator these past few days? Didn’t you enter the palace to prove that you’re not a demonic cultivator?”

Yun Ran frowned. “They haven’t reduced?”

Had she gone to the palace in vain?

Logically speaking, this shouldn’t be the case!

Even if someone was fanning the flames behind her back and controlling everything, her matters in the palace should be able to make the rumors develop in a way that was beneficial to her.

“Tell me, what are the rumors saying about me now?”

Thunderbolt had not been punished since he spoke in front of Miss Yun behind his master’s back last time, so he had been bold enough to say it.

“The ident.i.ties of the deceased are all young masters of aristocratic families. Before they died, they all said that they saw a fairy in their dreams. One of them even drew a painting for that fairy. The problem lies in that painting…”

As Thunderbolt spoke, he stole another glance at Yun Ran.

“Oh, so what’s wrong with the painting?”

Yun Ran picked up a bunch of grapes and ate them one by one. She did not seem very angry.

She was so calm that even Thunderbolt felt that this person was not listening to him at all. Instead, she looked like she was leisurely listening to other people’s gossip.

“The problem is that the fairy in the painting looks a little similar to you, Miss Yun! Isn’t it strange?”

Yun Ran said indifferently, “Is it strange? Isn’t it normal for someone to want to frame me and put on a show?”

Thunderbolt raised his voice. “You mean that the painting wasn’t drawn by the deceased but by the murderer? I’ll tell Master now.”

Yun Ran shouted at him to stop. “Wait, you don’t have to tell him.”

“Why don’t you tell Master? Are you planning to investigate it yourself? Or are you planning to be framed just like that!” Thunderbolt was anxious, thinking that she was planning to swallow her anger.

Yun Ran put down the grape in her hand and propped herself up on her arm. She blinked. “Brother, your imagination is a little overboard. I mean, he can tell this by himself. You don’t have to tell him.”

Yun Ran was bored and was a little interested in the demonic cultivator, so she continued to ask Thunderbolt.

“Do the victims have anything in common?”

“Something in common? Does it count if it’s all men?” Thunderbolt didn’t know why she asked him this question, but he still answered honestly.

Yun Ran guessed that he had heard the rumors outside and did not know the details of the case at all, so she planned to ask Mo Beiyuan.

He had been tracking the demonic cultivator recently, so he should know more.

“Where’s Mo Beiyuan? Is he in the residence?”

Because the Yuan Mansion was too big, the courtyard where the two of them lived was not close. Therefore, Yun Ran did not know if Mo Beiyuan was in the residence now, and could only ask the head of the secret guards in the residence, Thunderbolt.

“Master is not in the residence. Yesterday, there was another murder case of a demonic cultivator. Master went over personally.”

If it was in the past, Mo Beiyuan might not have cared about such a demonic cultivator murder case.

However, right after the incident in the Myriad Poison Valley, a demonic cultivator appeared in the Imperial City to kill someone. It was difficult not to link these two matters together.

No matter how useless the emperor was, the people were innocent.

“Oh, Sweetcake missed Daddy just now. I’ll bring her over to look for Daddy now.”
