Soren Xalvadora was struck by a bolt of lightning from the sky and died instantly as he stepped out of the court.
At that moment, he couldn’t hide his smugness and was even viciously prepared to go back and teach his wife a lesson.
However, in the clear sky, a lightning bolt without any warning struck him accurately.
Soren was fried on the spot, horrifying the lawyer who defended him.
There’s an old saying among the people: man proposes, Heaven disposes.
Good and evil will always be rewarded; it’s not that they aren’t rewarded, just that the time hasn’t come.
Obviously, Soren’s action of beating his mother to death and trying to avoid punishment was too egregious for even Heaven to let pass.
Scarlett Jennings heard Violet Allen mention Heaven, her eyes flickered, and she subconsciously thought of the Heavenly Dao that created the Evil God System.
That Heavenly Dao also likes to strike people with lightning.
Though this kind of clear distinction between good and evil didn’t quite seem like something that Heavenly Dao would do.
Scarlett was just thinking this when she suddenly pulled out her phone and searched.
After all, with such a dramatic and topical news story as a lightning bolt from the sky killing an unfilial man who killed his mother, she didn’t believe the media hadn’t reported it.
Sure enough, she found the news about Soren being struck by lightning. The news also detailed his numerous evil deeds, and the comments below were full of applause.
Some even swore in fear to provide for their elders well and be kind people in the future.
While Scarlett was reading carefully, Ashton Todd glanced at the news on her phone and his eyes widened in disbelief. He abruptly slammed the table and stood up,
"I knew it! You all learned so much in such a short time because you cheated!!"
With direct news coverage as a base, no wonder they won so easily?!
Violet Allen didn’t expect the news to pop up directly, her face turned hot, but she composed herself with justified reason,
"Even though there are news reports, the early investigation about the puppy being killed and the owner being beaten was done by us."
They only searched online for more details after confirming Soren’s identity.
But they also found witnesses to corroborate.
However, those involved... didn’t end well.
First was Soren’s wife, who, after his death, thought she could finally be free to start a new life. Unexpectedly, Soren came back as a vengeful spirit.
Soren’s wife was the first to be killed, and her soul was devoured by him.
Luckily, their daughter escaped with the help of Soren’s mother’s ghost, running to the nearest police station, thus escaping the calamity. But Soren’s mother’s soul was also consumed by him in his wrath.
Even after devouring two souls, Soren was not satisfied and sought out the family of the puppy owner responsible for his imprisonment.
The family of three narrowly escaped harm, thanks to the Security Bureau detecting the evil ghost’s presence and arriving in time to save them.
Even so, Soren’s sins were unforgivable.
Evil ghosts like this should have been eliminated on the spot, and the only reason it was left was to let the academy students have a final training exercise with it.
Even if the North City Group students made a mistake, the instructors in Capital Metropolitan would have intervened to handle the evil ghost.
Fortunately, although Soren was fierce, North City had Violet Allen, whose Impermanence Chains could bind all ghostly things.
Soren was struck down directly, his soul shattered.
Scarlett Jennings and the others heard about Soren’s end but didn’t feel appeased.
Because, within Soren’s evil deeds, there were two women who couldn’t escape this demon, whether in life or death, and tragically died innocently.
Ashton Todd’s face was unusually heavy as he asked Violet Allen,
"What about the little girl who escaped under her grandmother’s protection?"
Violet Allen sighed and said,
"She has no family left, so she must have been sent to an orphanage."
The deceased are gone, but the living must live on.
Ashton Todd didn’t respond and merely lowered his gaze silently.
Entering the orphanage might be better.
Though orphanages are tough, at least there’s hope.
After taking Violet Allen back to the hotel, Scarlett Jennings and her group returned to the villa prepared by the Jennings Family. It was already past ten at night.
Ashton Todd collected himself, intending to take a shower and change out of his "uniform."
