The Fake Heiress Turns Out to Be a True Tycoon! novel Chapter 1044

Chapter 1044: Chapter 1044: Six Thousand Years Ago, When It All Began

The act of time traveling is inherently risky, so Scarlett Jennings notified Magnolia Hearne and Donovan Jennings in advance.

Magnolia and Donovan were worried, but since Scarlett had made up her mind, they expressed their support.

Then it was time to activate the Soul Tree.

Eight Elders of the Hearne Clan set up an Array around the Soul Tree, with Scarlett Jennings, Samuel Chalmers, and Susan standing under the tree within the Array.

Scarlett’s palm gently touched the Soul Tree, connecting her consciousness to the tree’s essence.

Upon connecting with the tree’s primordial power, she sent Samuel and Susan into her Mind Domain.

The Domain unfolded.

The Four Symbols Barrier unfolded.

The Soul Bell on the tree vibrated, casting invisible ripples that penetrated the Domain, creating a time-breaking passage within it.

Scarlett Jennings, Samuel Chalmers, and Susan exchanged glances and finally stepped into the passage.

And this was merely the beginning.

Beyond the Domain, Emily Hearne was continuously channeling demonic power into the Soul Tree, ensuring they accurately arrive at the desired time period, which required sustaining the force to extend the passage back in time.

Magnolia watched from the side as Emily’s demonic power rapidly depleted; her originally snowy hair gradually lost its luster, and her skin visibly aged.

Magnolia’s heart trembled. She wanted to step in, but Aaron Hearne held her back.

"Don’t disturb her. She wouldn’t do anything to harm Scarlett."

Magnolia was filled with mixed emotions.

She wasn’t worried that Emily would harm Scarlett again. She just hadn’t expected Emily would deplete her own demonic power so much for Scarlett.

But upon reflection, opening a passage to the past wasn’t easy, even with the Soul Tree’s power.

Magnolia just didn’t understand why Emily would go to such lengths.

After successfully sending Scarlett Jennings’ consciousness into the passage, Emily provided the answer.

She said,

"Finding the Phoenix Divine Soul is insignificant to me and the Hearne Clan, but this journey may be where her opportunity lies."

Scarlett Jennings had lacked a breakthrough after manifesting her Nine-tailed form, and Emily had tried various methods.

Seeking the opportunity for the Ten-tailed form in a time traveled past was one of her considerations.

But she hadn’t made up her mind—until Scarlett brought it up, and Emily knew the timing was right.

Scarlett’s opportunity indeed lay in the past.

And so, the eight Elders of the Hearne Clan willingly helped.

Magnolia was surprised by Emily’s answer, yet not surprised.

After all, something that could make her mother deplete her demonic power and mental energy so much was only for the future of the Hearne Lineage.

She should have known.

But she sincerely thanked her, "Thank you, Mother."

Emily now had her back to her, slightly turned her head, her face and emotions unclear, merely saying in a distant voice,

"I did it not for her, nor for you. You don’t need to thank me."

Magnolia felt a lump in her throat, stifled with frustration, saying only,

"I’ll thank you anyway. If you don’t want to hear it, pretend you didn’t."

Emily seemed to let out a soft hum.

Magnolia faintly saw her aging skin as she slightly turned her head. Sensing her gaze, Emily turned away.

Raising her hand, she stepped into her Mind Domain, leaving only a final statement before disappearing,

"From today on, I’ll be in seclusion—don’t bother me."

After speaking, she vanished without a trace.

Magnolia pursed her lips, looked down, lost in thought.

Donovan Jennings refocused on the Soul Tree, having awakened his Demon Vein and manifested his Soul Bell, but it hadn’t rung during these two years. 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚
