Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 2257

"I'll do everything I can to help and turn you into a demon with over ten thousand years of life."

Shannon made that grave statement and promise as her eyes fixed on Bianca. Though she'd manifested her tenth tail, she still couldn't control a demon's lifespan, let alone retrieve the lives Bianca had sacrificed.

Now, the only thing she could do was extend Bianca's remaining demon lifespan so much that it would make up for more than what she had lost.

As for how she could do that… humans could turn to elixirs and artifacts to prolong life, while demons could increase lifespan through cultivation.

Before Bianca could fully process Shannon's words, she heard her say, "Starting today, I'll supervise your training. We'll aim to reach your nine tails as soon as possible."

She trembled slightly at the memories of endless bullying and torment in the domain and swallowed hard, muttering, "That won't be necessary."

No matter how Bianca resisted, Louise and Marilyn had made up their minds. All objections were invalid.

In Seastone, Velquin's divine soul vanished after Shannon and Benjamin left. The mini fire phoenix he had transformed into returned to the Cooper residence.

Looking at Trevaris lying on the bed and recovering his soul, Velquin didn't enter the latter's body. Instead, he landed quietly on a windowsill.

Staring into the deep, black sky, the sadness and grievance in his eyes from parting with Elowen slowly faded away. It was replaced by something much darker and intense.

After being entangled with Vlad for thousands of years, he knew Vlad wouldn't disappear so easily.

He knew of Vlad's secret in the alternate world…
