The Fake Heiress Turns Out to Be a True Tycoon!-Chapter 1172: What Heavenly Dao? Worse Than a Dog
The Golden Light that flew in from beyond the domain suddenly halted completely with the appearance of the Golden Token.
Not only her companions Stella and Greta beside her, but even the waves resulting from the collision with the Golden Light seemed to freeze as if time had been paused.
Everything between heaven and earth seemed to fall into emptiness, except for the clarity before Scarlett Jennings’ eyes.
She looked at the Golden Token floating in the air and instinctively reached out her hand.
The token instantly flew towards her as if being guided.
The small token flew into her palm and began to sink into her palm.
Just as it started to penetrate one corner, suddenly, within the domain where only she and the token were not frozen, a person lunged at her.
Scarlett instinctively flicked out a tail, but upon realizing who it was, she abruptly restrained her strength.
In that instant, the person took her hit head-on and simultaneously, without hesitation, grabbed the golden token already entering her palm.
The moment the palm grasped the golden token, the light emitted from the token nearly melted and burned her palm.
Suddenly, a scream of agony erupted from opposite her.
"Ahhhh..."
Jasmine Hamilton screamed tragically, yet her hand stubbornly held onto the golden token without letting go.
Scarlett Jennings looked at Jasmine Hamilton, who had entered the domain at some unknown time, and a flash of anger appeared in her eyes, "Let go!"
Her anger was not directed at Jasmine Hamilton but at the Otherworldly Heaven’s Will controlling Jasmine Hamilton’s body.
Perhaps due to sensing the Power of Heavenly Path, Scarlett Jennings could clearly see the faint golden light shadow behind Jasmine Hamilton.
That was the true Otherworldly Heaven’s Will.
An invisible existence that seemed connected to everything between heaven and earth.
And now, it was also connected to her domain.
Since Samuel Chalmers had warned her not to easily use the Power of the Heavenly Path, she had understood.
No matter whether they cooperated to deal with Shu’e or now, the Otherworldly Heaven’s Will had always had one goal.
And that was to take her domain’s Power of Heavenly Path.
It wanted to seal Shu’e within her domain to weaken her power, and at the same time, devise ways to extract the Power of Heavenly Path from her domain.
Originally, after subduing Shu’e, even if it plotted, it would proceed gradually.
However, it couldn’t wait to act the moment Shu’e was sealed.
Scarlett Jennings naturally wouldn’t let it have its way.
After all, through the earlier "struggle", she was well aware that the ten-tailed power alone couldn’t counter the heaven’s will; this Heavenly Path Token was her only trump card against the Otherworldly Heaven’s Will.
She couldn’t afford to lose it.
Her palm opened, she summoned the ten directions of Spiritual Energy within the domain, aiming to absorb the token faster into her palm.
Yet, as the token penetrated by an inch, Jasmine Hamilton’s grip on the token accelerated its burning, and her palm’s flesh was scorched by the golden light, revealing white bone underneath.
Despite this, Jasmine Hamilton refused to let go.
Or rather, the Otherworldly Heaven’s Will would not allow her to relent.
"Surrender the Power of Heavenly Path, or would you rather let her die."
The voice of the Otherworldly Heaven’s Will finally was no longer transmitted via Jasmine Hamilton’s mouth, but emerged from the golden light shadow floating behind her.
The indifferent words made Scarlett Jennings’ eyes flash with anger.
From the beginning, it had borrowed Jasmine Hamilton’s body to restrain her.
Because Jasmine Hamilton harbored its Power of Heavenly Path within her, she was most suited to be its vessel and could be controlled as well.
Scarlett Jennings knew very well that this was the overt scheme of the Otherworldly Heaven’s Will, yet she couldn’t disregard Jasmine Hamilton.
Not solely because she was a friend, but also because Jasmine Hamilton had stayed in the Otherworld as a surrogate for her mother.
If there was no Jasmine Hamilton, perhaps now controlled by the heaven’s will would be Magnolia Hearne.
Sentimentally and rationally, publicly and privately, she couldn’t disregard Jasmine Hamilton.
Yet she still didn’t abandon the absorption of the Heavenly Path Token, and could only lift her gaze, glaring harshly at the golden shadow within the void, gritting her teeth as she spoke,
"What kind of heavenly will are you... lower than a dog."
The Otherworldly Heaven’s Will remained unaffected, and instead manipulated Jasmine Hamilton to clasp the token with both hands, while coldly speaking amidst Jasmine’s screams,
"A trespassing half-demon in the Otherworld, without my permission, she wouldn’t live freely in another realm. These past two years have been my leniency towards her, and now... her life depends on you."
Scarlett Jennings’ eyes turned red as she looked at the still suffering Jasmine Hamilton, watched her hands grasping the token, the bones revealed, then looked at the golden token now buried a third into her own palm, a flash of resoluteness appeared in her eyes.
Her ten tails rose behind her, Scarlett, with the other hand, single-handedly chanted, as her fingertips gleamed gold accompanied by the light of ten tails, Scarlett resolutely raised her hand, her fingertips’ demon light suddenly transforming into a light blade, without hesitation slashing towards Jasmine Hamilton’s hands clasping the token.
The Otherworldly Heaven’s Will did not move an inch, seemingly expected, only saying, "Even if you chop off her hands, her Demon Soul is connected to the Heavenly Path Token, unless you..."
Before it could say "destroy her Demon Soul," Scarlett Jennings’ light blade had already struck down.
However, it did not fall upon Jasmine Hamilton’s hands as the heaven’s will anticipated, rather, it struck the Heavenly Path Token.
The light blade belonging to the ten-tailed power cleaved the token, instantly emitting several streams of golden light.
Originally with no chance against the heaven’s will and token using ten-tailed power, but the Heavenly Path Token did not repel her, yet burned and devoured Jasmine’s flesh.
Even attempting, Scarlett Jennings wanted to gamble.
If unable to absorb the entirety of the Heavenly Path Token, then at least ensure it doesn’t fully enter the Otherworldly Heaven’s Will’s grasp.
Seemingly sensing her intent, the light blade, originally unable to touch the Heavenly Path Token, suddenly cleaved the token in the light.
Thus, the Heavenly Path Token was split in two by her light blade, with her palm’s half instantly transforming into countless golden points absorbed into Scarlett Jennings’ palm.
While the cleaved other half, burst into countless points of light scattering away.
The representative golden shadow of the Otherworldly Heaven’s Will trembled abruptly, seemingly enraged, at last disregarding Jasmine Hamilton, swiftly absorbing the scattered light points into its own body.
And Scarlett Jennings, just as the Otherworldly Heaven’s Will was absorbing those points of light, leveraging the recently absorbed half-path power of heaven, single-handedly chanted a mantra, swiftly slicing through the connection between the Otherworldly Heaven’s Will and Jasmine Hamilton with a light blade created by the heavenly power.
As the connection severed, her tail wrapped around the unconscious Jasmine Hamilton, pulling her behind, while Scarlett Jennings spun around concurrently.
With the remaining heavenly power, her nine tails heavily struck at the golden shadow of the Otherworldly Heaven’s Will.
The Otherworldly Heaven’s Will, having just absorbed the remaining light points, was abruptly slapped and sent flying, straight out of the space rift opened by Scarlett Jennings.
The moment the golden shadow flew out of the domain, the rift closed abruptly, and Scarlett Jennings simultaneously raised her hand, using the golden light of the absorbed power of heavenly path to envelop her entire domain completely —
"Seal."
