Lionel Strickland and Braxton Weaver hadn’t reacted before Scarlett Jennings and the child suddenly disappeared from sight.
Dashiell was about to exclaim when Lionel Strickland pulled him aside.
"Don’t panic, it should be the master’s Mind Domain."
Only then did Dashiell remember this fact and couldn’t help but ask, "How do you know?"
Lionel Strickland raised his chin proudly.
Though his combat power was weak, he was an Ear Mouse that lived for thousands of years; he had this level of insight.
Apart from the two, no one in the entire mall noticed the disappearance of Scarlett Jennings and Shu’e.
And because the trace of malevolent thoughts released by Shu’e was also absorbed into the domain, the man stepping onto the escalator no longer encountered any accidents.
The mother holding the child continued to stand behind the man, all the while glaring resentfully at the back of the man’s head, ultimately not daring to risk getting caught trying to harm him.
Both sides descended the escalator unharmed, and the woman holding the child snorted softly at the man before turning and walking in the opposite direction.
...
On the other side, within the domain.
Looking at the suddenly changing scene, the lush green earth and his feet instantly bound by vines upon entry.
This wasn’t the most surprising part to Shu’e; more surprisingly, not only did she bring the trace of malevolent thoughts he released into the domain, but she also used vines to tightly bind those thoughts.
The originally intangible malevolent thoughts were bound by her vines.
Though he knew she had developed into a Nine-tailed in just two years, he hadn’t expected her mastery of this power to be so close to perfection.
Indeed, she was the person he had been searching for all along.
"Is this your domain? Vibrant and lively, unlike any I’ve encountered before."
Despite his legs being bound, Shu’e’s face, originally belonging to Susan, showed no sign of panic. Instead, it carried a strange calm, as he changed his tone and said,
"But you may not know, the more vibrant something is, the easier it is for malevolent thoughts to invade."
Drawing him, the embodiment of malevolent thoughts, into her Mind Domain, would be her biggest mistake.
After all, once her mind was eroded, she would face the same fate as the Phoenix did back then.
However, he wouldn’t immediately devour her.
He would leave her consciousness, waiting until... the moment she developed into a Ten-tailed, connecting to the Heavenly Dao.
Scarlett Jennings listened to Shu’e’s words, her expression unchanged, only responding with a question,
"Really?"
As she spoke, Shu’e felt a vague sense of foreboding, and sure enough, the vines originally binding him and the trace of malevolent thoughts faintly emitted a Golden Light.
That was the Golden Light inherent from the Dragon Vein.
The child’s expression subtly changed; the vines emitting Golden Light instantly twisted the trace of malevolent thoughts, and the vines originally only binding his feet rapidly climbed upwards with the Golden Light.
Seeing half of his body about to be engulfed by vines and Golden Light, Shu’e’s eyes turned cold, and countless malevolent thoughts suddenly spread around him.
The malevolent thoughts spread out, seemingly transforming into three thousand Evil Ghosts, rushing towards the corners of Scarlett Jennings’s Mind Domain in the form of black gas.
Before she could foolishly attempt to trap him with mere vines, his malevolent thoughts would first erode her spirit.
Scarlett Jennings watched as the malevolent thoughts almost instantly swallowed the domain.
Compared to the malevolent thoughts she had previously captured on Albert Lester, it was like comparing a puddle to an ocean.
Even within the domain, she clearly felt the oppressive force these malevolent thoughts brought.
No wonder Samuel Chalmers had sternly warned her not to easily touch or collect malevolent thoughts.
But since the other party actively sought her out, Scarlett Jennings had no reason not to rise to the challenge.
