"Samuel Chalmers!!" đđ»đźđźđŹđđđđžđ«đđĄ.đŹđžđ
Scarlett Jennings watched as his figure suddenly disappeared before her eyes, her mind going blank, even forgetting she was mid-air, recklessly lunging forward.
She wanted to catch him.
However, the golden light that she had easily caught before dissipated from her palm, along with the Contract Seal on her left palm that should have been connected to Samuel, also dissipated.
Scarlettâs heart seemed to stop beating for a moment, an overwhelming sense of powerlessness assailed her without warning, and the next second, she felt everything go black, and her whole being cluelessly plummeted straight from a height.
Dashiell was stunned the moment she lunged out.
Before he could swivel to catch her, Scarlettâs figure was already rapidly falling downwards.
Dashiell felt as if his whole bodyâs scales instantly bristled layer by layer, then he shrieked sharply, "Scarlett," recklessly diving headfirst.
Samuel had disappeared; if Scarlett fell and got hurt, he, he, heâd be too ashamed to be a Flood Dragon!
Dashiellâs reaction was swift, but even swifter were two other figures.
Above the clouds, a Black Dragon suddenly pierced through towards Scarlett. Its figure was like an arrow, overtaking Dashiell in an instant, and just as it was about to catch Scarlett, another figure beat it by a step.
Almost instantly, Scarlett was caught firmly.
Aaron Hearne stood like that in the void, seemingly stepping on solid ground, gave a provocative glance at the Black Dragon before him, then looked down to see Scarlett Jennings, who had clearly fallen into a coma from exhausted demonic power and the Contract Sealâs disappearance, with a faint expression.
The Black Dragon was a step late, failing to catch anyone, instantly enraged it roared at Aaron Hearne,
"Cassian! Return her to me!"
That one had already returned, who knows how long it would take for him to come back, and if he hadnât protected his "fiancĂ©e", he didnât know how heâd get reprimanded when that person returned.
Aaron Hearne was unmoved by the Black Dragonâs command, still holding Scarlett, his eyes casually glancing below,
"The people of Sea City have woken, are you sure you want to blatantly expose your dragon form in front of all those eyes?"
The Black Dragon, hearing this, suddenly had a flash of insight, transforming into Simonâs form in mid-air.
Along with him, Dashiell also transformed back into human form with a wave of his hand.
Unlike Simon and Cassian, Dashiellâs demonic power wasnât strong, he didnât have the ability to stand in mid-air in human form, and was almost dropped but was casually caught by Simon.
Fortunately, neither of them had the habit of talking in mid-air, and soon each carried the person back to the ground.
Simon released Dashiell, again extending his hand toward Aaron Hearne.
"My person from the Security Bureau, just leave her to me."
Aaron Hearne didnât move an inch, looked at Simon, his mouth lightly pulling a smile, "Did you forget, sheâs not only from the Security Bureau, but also from the Mystic Regulation Office?"
Moreover, putting that identity aside, heâs her real uncle.
No sooner had these words landed, a sharp female voice with urgency called out to him,
"Aaron Hearne!"
Speaking, she swiftly approached like the wind, reaching Aaron Hearne in the blink of an eye, without a word, lifted Scarlett from his arms, tightly holding her.
Magnolia Hearne stared vigilantly at the Aaron Hearne in front of her, guessing his purpose for coming.
Recalling Samuel Chalmersâ aura had just disappeared, and then this person suddenly appeared here, it was hard not to overthink.
Aaron Hearne had come to snatch someone.
Aaron Hearne faced Magnoliaâs obviously guarded and wary gaze, his eyes momentarily darkened a shade, but his face remained calm,
"Sea City is in trouble, heâs returned, Iâve come to take her back to the clan."
Magnolia instantly refused upon hearing,
"Impossible! Donât even think about it!"
She would never let Scarlett fall into his or the clanâs hands, especially now that Samuel had returned.
Seeing Scarlett in her arms as she was unconscious, Magnoliaâs chest ached.
She already learned upon arriving that Samuel Chalmers used his golden light to protect Sea Cityâs fortune, she wasnât surprised by his actions; she was just worried about explaining everything to Scarlett when she woke up.
Simon only said upon hearing, "If he has returned, he will naturally come back."
But as for when, he didnât know either.
They could only wait.
Magnolia didnât ask further, watched Simon transform into dragon form at the original place, flying back into the clouds in an instant, disappearing without a trace.
She was silent, holding Scarlett, just about to turn back towards the Jennings Family.
Only to see not far behind her, a grand group of people arriving.
Some were wearing Taoism Academy uniforms, some in Security Bureau mission suits, some were in a sorry state, some walked with weary steps, yet their eyes carried determination.
They had come after sensing Sea Cityâs fortune was stolen.
Except those severely injured like Stella Gibson and Greta, most people had arrived.
Among these people, perhaps their spiritual power wasnât that profound, nor were their mystical techniques extraordinarily gifted.
But living in Sea City, they had the responsibility to protect it in every way possible.
Even if their spiritual power was weak, they still wanted to do their part.
Led by the dean of the Sea City Taoist Academy and the Security Bureau branch chief, along with a few prominent Soul Bodies that had rushed from the Capital Metropolitan.
Before coming, they even prepared to sacrifice themselves.
Yet they hadnât even had the chance to do anything when they found out Sea Cityâs fortune was already protected on their way.
The younger disciples didnât understand, but the few elderly heads had already guessed what had happened.
At this moment, looking at Scarlett Jennings in Magnoliaâs arms, the dean of Sea City quietly sighed, saying to Magnolia,
"Take the child home first."
