The Fake Heiress Turns Out to Be a True Tycoon! novel Chapter 1021

Chapter 1021: Chapter 1021: What Does He Want?

Scarlett Jennings never expected to hear such a truth, but she could clearly sense that Emily Hearne wasn’t lying to her.

She looked to the side at Samuel Chalmers, matched his gaze, and realized he must have known from the start as well.

Therefore, when it came to dealing with the Hearne Clan’s obsessive pursuit of the Ten-tailed Sky Fox, Samuel Chalmers’ attitude was never particularly forceful.

He knew what the Hearne Clan wanted to do.

It’s just,

"Why didn’t you tell me from the beginning?"

Perhaps even Magnolia Hearne was unaware of these things.

"Only the one who has the potential to become the Ten-tailed Sky Fox is told the family secret."

Emily Hearne paused as she spoke, glanced at Scarlett Jennings,

"Moreover, knowing these things too early wouldn’t help your cultivation."

Even when they initially chose Donovan Jennings, they hadn’t intended to tell him these things.

Because whether it was him or Scarlett Jennings, they grew up among humankind, and even though they now had some contact with the Demon Clan, they couldn’t be sure they would take the matters of the Demon Clan as their own.

In the end, rather than reasoning with these younger generations and hoping they would take the family’s matters as their own, the preference was to use force to suppress them.

If they wished to resist, it was simple.

They just needed to be stronger than them. 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚

Emily Hearne never expected that the two children her child bore both carried the ancestral bloodline of the Ten-tailed Sky Fox.

One of them was even a reincarnation with soul consciousness.

Perhaps some things are always destined in the depths of fate.

Destined that this bloodline must bear all of this.

Scarlett Jennings pursed her lips without speaking for a long time after hearing this, and after a while, she looked at Emily Hearne and Samuel Chalmers,

"So it was always the Otherworld Heavens targeting me and preventing great demons from descending into this world?"

Since they said the Heavenly Dao of this world had long perished, the fact that Elias Quinn created a system and repeatedly brought down Heavenly Thunder on her, not allowing Dashiell to undergo Dragon Transformation, could only mean it was the Otherworld Heavens.

"What does it want?"

Scarlett Jennings bluntly asked the question she was most concerned about.

Although she vaguely had an answer in her heart, she felt there might be more to it than she thought.

At this, Samuel Chalmers spoke slowly,

"You have been to the Otherworld, so you should know the spiritual energy there is depleted, disasters are rampant, and only the Power of the Heavenly Path can suppress it."

He looked at Scarlett Jennings, his gaze steady,

"Though it initially chose to preserve itself, with its current strength, it is hardly enough to maintain the stability of the Otherworld. To save the world, it can only plunder fortune and spiritual energy from this world."

But merely plundering fortune and spiritual energy is not enough.

Because no matter how much fortune and spiritual energy there is, they will eventually be exhausted, just like its past choices.

"And to obtain all the fortune and spiritual energy of a world, it must take on the identity of Heavenly Dao and take over the entire world."

Samuel Chalmers said,

"What it wants is to replace the Heavenly Dao of this world."

Scarlett Jennings was taken aback by these words, and after a long while, asked in a slightly hoarse voice,

"If it replaces it, then what?"

Even with its initial strength, it was barely maintaining the stability of the Otherworld, and Scarlett Jennings didn’t think that after replacing this world’s Heavenly Dao, it could maintain the stability of both worlds as the sole Heavenly Dao.

Emily Hearne didn’t expect Scarlett Jennings to be so perceptive.

But since the conversation had reached this point, she didn’t mind speaking more plainly.

"You should know, the Otherworld and our world are two parallel existing worlds. To the Otherworld Heavens, two identical worlds are unnecessary; they would only further disperse the life force and spiritual energy."

She chuckled lightly, with a trace of sarcasm in her casual tone,

"So what it wants is to return to the origin and merge the two worlds into one."

Scarlett Jennings’ pupils suddenly contracted.

What does merging two identical worlds into one signify?

She was inseparable from the entire Demon Clan and all the people she cared about in this world.

"As long as the final goal is the same, the process doesn’t matter."

She said.

Emily Hearne looked at her bright yet determined eyes and finally smiled slowly after a while,

"Remember what you said."

The road ahead will be dozens of times more difficult than before.

...

That night, she and Samuel Chalmers did not leave the Hearne Gardens.

Although she had been there several times, it was the first time she settled her heart to feel the place.

Everyone there seemed calm, but hidden beneath was a torrent of emotions.

Just because of their different positions, no matter how much turmoil, it had to be suppressed within.

After today, she would also formally become one of them.

Moreover, she would need to be more urgent to make herself stronger.

Strong enough that even when facing the Heavenly Dao, she would not only take blows...

With these thoughts in mind, a hand suddenly gently clasped hers.

Scarlett Jennings turned her head and met Samuel Chalmers’ deep and reserved dark eyes; at some point, she already saw past the golden light surrounding him to clearly see his appearance.

Just like now, he looked at her and said,

"Don’t worry, I’ll always be with you."

Not to shield her, but to stand beside her, go wherever she wanted to go.

Scarlett Jennings tightened her grip slightly, instinctively clasped his hand back, feeling the warmth emanating from beneath the golden light, as if her heart also gradually calmed down.

She arched her brows slightly, looked at him, and nodded seriously,

"Yes, together."
