Don’t joke around! We can’t kill anyone! You… you better let us out!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How could they possibly kill anyone? They were lawful citizens!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Exactly! Who’s going to listen to your nonsense? Just let us go!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lucas Jennings couldn’t help but shout at the ghostly figure,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Kill your sister! What do you think you are?! If you dare even touch a hair on my sister’s head, my family, my brother-in-law will never let you off!!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In what was undoubtedly a tense and frantic moment, a small part of the young crowd was oddly drawn in by Lucas’s words, their curiosity piqued.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Huh? Brother-in-law??\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Do they… have a brother-in-law now?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ghostly figure was clearly uninterested in such thoughts, seeing the players displaying righteousness without a word, simply waving a hand abruptly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, the player whose neck was bound by the black aura struggled violently, as everyone watched the black aura around his neck tighten rapidly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The specter intended to take his life immediately!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Banishing misfortune, unscathed by water and fire, with a Spirit Talisman, evil spirits disperse!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Accompanied by Gregory Xander’s command, a Spirit Talisman swiftly flew toward the black aura around the trapped player’s neck, dispersing most of it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the moment everyone was captivated by the Spirit Talisman, a woman’s voice rang out again, her clear tone filled with sharpness,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Thunder resounds, earth groans, above are six armored warriors, below are six courtiers, with the supreme mandate, the thunderbolt is fixed…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A Thunder Talisman accompanied by golden light shot toward the specter’s direction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Boom!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a command, Heavenly Thunder flashed out of nowhere within the Ghost Realm and then struck down at the shadow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The specter was caught off guard and was hit by the Purple Thunder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gathered from Ferocious Fiend’s aura, the ghostly figure was instantly dispersed, everyone looked in astonishment at this unexpected move, their eyes filled with delight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only Lucas Jennings remained unperturbed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As far as his sister’s Thunder Talisman was concerned, he knew from the first incantation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s all standard procedure~\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone was thrilled, thinking the specter was gone; surely they could escape now. Yet, in the next moment, that nightmarish voice echoed again from the void.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Purple Thunder is strong, but it can’t kill me!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“To leave the Ghost Realm, there’s only one way: kill Scarlett Jennings.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If she doesn’t die, all of you must stay behind.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the voice finished, it vanished once more into the void of the Ghost Realm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As it had said, everything in this Ghost Realm was under its control.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Despair instantly showed in everyone’s expressions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Scarlett Jennings and these Mystical Sect members couldn’t handle that ghostly figure; how else could they leave here?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The player who was narrowly rescued was now coughing frantically, clutching his throat, his face full of terror,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I cough… I don’t want to die here… I don’t want to die here! I want to leave… Kill Scarlett Jennings, and we can get out.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You dare!” Lucas Jennings shouted angrily, his youthful face full of malice as he glared at the person.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I almost died just now! It’s her lack of capability! If she can’t save us all, then let’s use her life to exchange for ours!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That person said while rallying nearby players to his side,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You all saw just now! These Mystical Sect people are completely unreliable; we can only rely on ourselves!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching several players clearly waver in their thoughts, a malicious look directed towards Scarlett Jennings began forming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Scarlett Jennings tightened her grip slightly on the Peach Wood Sword.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She coldly looked at the crowd of players before her, the Blood Pearl in her palm tumbling down, yet prepared to defend herself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, before she could act, several people beside Scarlett Jennings unsurprisingly stood in front of her, facing the players, their expressions cold but meaningfully protective.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Scarlett Jennings was stunned, gazing at the line of backs before her: Gregory Xander, Evander Simpson, Victor Quintero, Daniel Wright, Alicia Sharp, Lucas Jennings, and his little companions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They stood resolutely in front, ready to confront everyone opposite them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>During the standoff, a few scattered players from the other side joined Lucas Jennings’s group.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Don’t ask; the answer is they won’t do something so conscience-less.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing those safeguarding Scarlett Jennings multiply, the opposing players attempted to sway others to their side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Don’t be foolish! What’s the point of morality at a time like this!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This is the Ghost Realm; even if we kill her, no one will find out.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as he finished speaking, a male voice from Scarlett Jennings’s side sounded stern and imposing,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I will know.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, Daniel Wright stepped forward, pulling out his identification,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sea City’s police will know!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he spoke, two others beside him produced their badges; they were undercover officers on this investigation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching the players opposite him visibly waver, Daniel Wright took a deep breath and said solemnly,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Whether we are police or Scarlett Jennings and these Mystical Sect people, we’ve always been striving to save everyone…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But I don’t want those we’re risking our lives to save to be a bunch of scumbags.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps touched by Daniel Wright’s words or intimidated by his police identity, more players made their way over, soon standing more than half in front of Scarlett Jennings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such a scene even Scarlett Jennings herself hadn’t anticipated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For the first time, she stood before many who wanted to protect her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The hand holding the Peach Wood Sword trembled slightly; after a long pause, it was firmly tightened again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Across, Ava Zimmerman stared blankly at the scene, confusion and incomprehension clouding her eyes, with even unperceived…envy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wasn’t supposed to be this way.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Scarlett should be just like her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Exceptionally talented but abandoned and scorned by the world, just like what she knew about Scarlett Jennings’s past in the Garrison Family.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were supposed to be equally lonely, which is why she’d come to her side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But why did she have so many people protecting her?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So many around, even family members, weren’t rejecting her existence as she imagined.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Scarlett Jennings was different from her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ava Zimmerman felt betrayed at that moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She stared intently at Scarlett Jennings standing at the back of the crowd, slowly showing hatred in her eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Scarlett Jennings had betrayed her!\u003C\u002Fp>",1131,"2026-06-10T07:18:23.778Z",1,"novelbin.me","70947ccc20cc6fdc25806da9bd72ecab54b64dd0789399c913c371aacc8dbb27","the-fake-heiress-turns-out-to-be-a-true-tycoon-chapter-465","the-fake-heiress-turns-out-to-be-a-true-tycoon-chapter-314",1286,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-fake-heiress-turns-out-to-be-a-true-tycoon-cover.jpg"]
