The Fake Heiress Turns Out to Be a True Tycoon!-Chapter 1181: A Useless Body, Destroyed as It May Be
"What is that?"
Someone murmured inquisitively.
No one answered.
Because they didn’t know the answer either, they only knew that the layers of golden light breaking through the vortex allowed them to see an existence named hope.
Ordinary people were oblivious, but both the Demon Clan and the Mystical Sect recognized who it was.
Golden Light, Ten-tailed, only that person.
"Scarlett! It’s her! They’re back!"
Hannah Hearne couldn’t hold back the joy in her voice, and next to her, Ashton Todd and others had also recognized the figure appearing in the vortex, unconsciously showing joy on their faces.
And Samuel Chalmers, while focused on helping everyone maintain the National Protection Barrier, still managed to send a golden light out of the barrier.
The golden light floated quietly before Scarlett Jennings’s eyes, seemingly exchanging a silent look for two seconds, then moved forward, the golden light seeping into Scarlett Jennings’s forehead.
It was as if she heard a voice from his consciousness, steadfast as ever, with a touch of affection and joy,
He said,
[Scarlett, it’s good to have you back.]
Scarlett Jennings quietly absorbed everything happening before her, and after a long while, she softly whispered back to him,
"Hold on for a little longer, this will all be over soon."
After that, she turned to signal Stella Gibson and Greta, "Go find Ashton Todd."
After breaking the barrier imposed on her domain by the Heavenly Dao, Scarlett Jennings already understood what had happened, and with the sapling still linked to the Heavenly Dao’s consciousness, she was fully aware of what the Otherworld Heavens had done.
She had also informed Stella and the others in advance.
Stella Gibson nodded seriously at this moment, immediately taking Greta and Jasmine Hamilton with her, disappearing quickly from the scene.
With the heavenly power drawn out from Jasmine Hamilton’s body, she had become nothing more than an ordinary Half-Demon. What Scarlett was about to do was beyond her help; all she could do was avoid becoming a burden to Scarlett.
Soon, Scarlette Jennings was left with only Shellback by her side.
Seeing her gaze, Shellback immediately clung tightly to her back, refusing to budge, "I’ll keep watch at your back, be your support, and won’t go anywhere."
"Alright."
Scarlett Jennings nodded in response, just now agreeably, when suddenly the golden light belonging to the Otherworld Heavens had already come before her eyes in an instant.
The murderous golden light attacked her at point-blank range just like before.
Scarlett Jennings’s eyes sharpened, and the half-piece of the Heavenly Path Token in her palm glowed with golden light, without hesitation waving it against the incoming golden light.
The two streams of golden light collided, bursting forth with ripples of light in the sky.
The massive rings of light spread like ripples across Cathay’s sky, illuminating what was shrouded in a dark vortex into bright daylight.
Before everyone could react, the swiftly gathered dark clouds around the vortex surrounded Scarlett Jennings.
The Heavenly Thunder, which was supposed to descend, now swam laterally around Scarlett Jennings like a snake within the black clouds.
The next second, tens of thousands of Heavenly Thunder came dense as rain from all directions toward Scarlett Jennings.
The Otherworld Heavens sought to flatten her the instant she appeared, so it focused all its force on Scarlett Jennings from the start.
Coincidentally, Scarlett Jennings had the same intention.
Standing in the center of the dark clouds, Scarlett Jennings faced the incoming Heavenly Thunder from all directions without dodging, only with a mere thought, she saw countless spatial rifts open around her.
The instant the rifts opened, all the Heavenly Thunder heading toward her were absorbed into them.
The thunder clouds that surrounded her were also absorbed into her domain together.
Then, she flipped her hand.
Suddenly, numerous spatial rifts opened around the golden silhouette representing the Otherworld Heavens.
Flashes of lightning flickered from the rifts, and in just an instant, the Heavenly Thunder she had absorbed into her domain was wholly transformed into Golden Light Thunder Fire.
Golden Thunder mixed with Phoenix Fire, carrying an apocalyptic might, smashed directly toward the golden silhouette...
The apocalyptic scene transpired in mere moments.
Everyone gawked in disbelief that Scarlett Jennings’s power had grown strong enough to contend with the Heavenly Dao.
Even Emily Hearne momentarily forgot to move.
Seeing the golden silhouette narrowly avoiding the tens of thousands of lightning and fire, about to launch another attack, Scarlett Jennings acted faster than it did this time.
In a flash, she appeared in front of the golden silhouette, her radiating ten tails swinging mightily.
The golden silhouette was torn apart with a deafening impact.
She shattered the golden light representing the Heavenly Dao.
Before anyone could react, Scarlett Jennings flashed again, reappearing at the center of the Otherworld Vortex, quickly forming a mantra, the golden light in her palm responding, and soon a massive Ten-tailed Array illuminated above her.
The array pressed straight toward the center of the vortex, spreading its ten tails, forcibly slowing the turbulent Boundary Breaking Vortex.
Scarlett Jennings swiftly changed the mantra in her hand, raising her palm, and the half-piece of the Heavenly Path Token appeared within.
The golden light emitted from the token seemed to possess endless attraction, intending to draw out the remaining Heavenly power that the Otherworld Heavens infused into the vortex.
If the vortex were deprived of the Heavenly power’s reinforcement, they might find a way to halt it.
The Otherworld Heavens perceived her intent, and the previously dispersed golden light rapidly gathered, heading toward Scarlett Jennings.
Until then, Emily Hearne, who had been watching from a distance, finally moved.
Disregarding the previously injured demonic power, she was about to step in to temporarily fend off the Otherworld Heavens from ambushing Scarlett.
However, just as she moved, she noticed Scarlett Jennings, who had been focused on reclaiming the Heavenly power, slightly tilt her head.
Evidently, she had discerned the Otherworld Heavens’ intention.
With a sheer thought, Emily saw Scarlett Jennings, originally at the vortex’s center, along with the regrouping Otherworld Heavens, vanish abruptly on the spot.
The once surging and tumultuous battle seemed suddenly paused.
Above the void, only the Ten-tailed Array left by Scarlett Jennings steadfastly blocked the descent of the Otherworld Vortex.
Emily Hearne, however, knew that Scarlett and the Otherworld Heavens hadn’t just disappeared suddenly.
Instead, Scarlett had dragged the Otherworld Heavens into her domain.
Her sovereign domain, linked to the Otherworld Heavens, unless they allowed it, no one could enter within.
This time, she still couldn’t help her.
...
At this moment, Scarlett Jennings, being thought of by Emily Hearne and everyone, faced off within her domain against the golden silhouette representing the Heavenly Dao.
What was different was that by her side, Shellback braved black mist to boldly confront the golden silhouette, and upon its back, lay a small sapling tightly guarded by golden light.
"You, you don’t move now."
Shellback said, "Your true body is in our hands now, with a slight move from us, it’s gone!"
Still, the once "master," even though Shellback had long been free from its control, couldn’t help but feel fearful.
The golden silhouette slightly swayed, as if a gaze skimmed lightly over Shellback, without lingering, before sweeping toward Scarlett Jennings.
From within the light, the voice that belonged to the Otherworld Heavens finally arrived, imbued with a cold, all-ignore indifference, saying,
"A useless true body destroyed means nothing."
When its consciousness completely parted from the true body and left it in that calamity-ridden domain, it had already utterly abandoned this so-called true body.
