Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 2323

"Hand over the Might of the Divine Power, or she shall die."

This time, the voice of the Alternate Divine Power did not come from Fennec's mouth. Instead, it resonated from the golden silhouette floating in the void behind her.

The cold, utterly indifferent tone sent a sharp glint of rage flickering in Shannon's eyes.

From the start, the Alternate Divine Power had used Fennec as leverage against her. Fennec carried a fragment of the Might within her body, so she was its ideal vessel under its control.

Shannon had always known this was the Alternate Divine Power's trap in plain sight. Even so, she couldn't just abandon Fennec.

It wasn't just because Fennec was her friend, but because the latter had remained in the alternate world in Thalia's place. If not for Fennec, it might have been Thalia under the Divine Power's control right now.

Emotionally, logically, and morally, she could never abandon Fennec. Yet, she didn't stop trying to absorb the divine token.

Looking up, she glared at the golden silhouette in the void and spat out her words through gritted teeth, "You call yourself the Divine Power, but you're worse than a beast."

The Alternate Divine Power remained unfazed. Instead, it controlled Fennec to grip the token with both hands.

Amid her anguished screams, it flatly replied, "As a half-demon, if I had not allowed her to trespass into the alternate world, she would not have survived this long.

"The past two years were my mercy, and now, her life hinges entirely on your choice."

Shannon's eyes turned red as she looked at Fennec, who was still crying out in agony. Her gaze shifted to the latter's hands burned to the bone from gripping the token, before moving toward the golden token that had sunk a third into her own palm.

Then, her eyes flashed with resolve.

Behind her, her ten tails rose. Shannon formed a mudra with her free hand, while golden light fused with the ten-tailed's supernatural light flickered at her fingertips.

Without hesitation, she raised her hand, and the supernatural light transformed into a light sword. Then, she slashed at Fennec's hands gripping the token.
