The Fake Heiress Turns Out to Be a True Tycoon! novel Chapter 1113

Chapter 1113: Chapter 1113: Shu’e’s Goal: Replacing the Heavenly Dao

Magnolia Hearne, upon sensing the space anomaly, immediately embraced Luca Jennings on the bed.

A second later, the two were transported by an array to what seemed like outside the Mountain Gate.

It seemed, because the large Clan Garden that once stood before the mountain and the familiar crimson gate had now completely disappeared.

Simultaneously, like Scarlett, she could no longer sense the presence of Emily Hearne or any members of the Hearne Clan.

"Qi Qi?"

Luca Jennings’s slightly hoarse voice sounded, barely bringing Magnolia Hearne back to her senses. She turned her head in confusion, looking at Luca Jennings, who had awakened after leaving the Clan Garden, and vaguely understood something in her heart.

"She deceived me again..."

She said, for over the past four hundred years questions left unanswered would not suddenly be disclosed to her with just one call of mother.

Emily Hearne said it was true that those hidden within the Hearne Tribe were about to reveal themselves.

It was true she confessed to maintaining a relationship like an ordinary mother-daughter.

But how much of this was to relax caution toward those secretly hidden?

Because Emily Hearne also knew that when she was immersed in the reunion with her daughter and son-in-law, it was the time the King Fox and the entire Clan Garden were the most relaxed.

Magnolia Hearne did not blame Emily Hearne for calculating every angle, she was angry that if she was to be calculated in, why not be calculated thoroughly?

Throwing her out alone, what does that mean?!

Unspoken emotions were tangled within Magnolia Hearne’s heart, wanting to vent, yet unsure where to start.

It was then that the aura of Aaron Hearne suddenly appeared behind her.

Magnolia Hearne whirled around and saw that besides Aaron Hearne, Simon was also there.

Clearly, both had sensed the trouble with the Hearne Clan’s grounds and had come over.

Compared to Magnolia Hearne, Aaron Hearne’s expression was evidently much steadier.

It was expected, if Emily Hearne had plans, she would naturally inform Aaron Hearne in advance.

As she thought, Emily Hearne would naturally tell Aaron Hearne beforehand to have him cooperate.

Not just because he was her first child, but also because he was the head of the Mystic Regulation Office.

The Hearne Tribe was a major clan among the Demon Clan, if the Hearne Clan’s grounds fell, the first to be impacted would definitely be all demons within the Capital Metropolitan.

Emily Hearne activated the clan’s barrier to keep the grounds from chaos.

What Aaron Hearne and Simon needed to do was ensure the demon clan within the Capital Metropolitan remained orderly.

Seeing the unshakable heaviness in Magnolia Hearne’s eyes, Aaron Hearne paused and merely said,

"Shu’e planted a spy within the Hearne Tribe hundreds of years ago. After several probes, its purpose became clear to Mother. She has long been prepared to counteract, nothing to worry about."

Aaron Hearne did not mention Emily Hearne indeed prepared multiple countermeasures.

However, opening the clan’s barrier, confining all clan members inside was the second-to-last untimely option out of desperation.

Naturally, there was a last option; should confining the grounds and members fail, Emily Hearne would use the King Fox’s power to slaughter all clan members controlled by Shu’e’s evil will within the grounds.

Including herself.

Aaron Hearne was not worried she couldn’t do it, but he hoped things wouldn’t come to that.

Listening to Aaron Hearne’s words, Magnolia Hearne didn’t relax because of them.

The activation of the clan’s barrier was a major event; if things were really as light as Aaron said, Emily Hearne would not have rashly ordered the barrier’s opening.

Nor would she have sent her and Luca Jennings out of the barrier a second before opening it.

She sent them out precisely because she knew once the clan’s barrier was activated, the real danger would be inside the barrier.

"I won’t ask you what she plans to do after the barrier is opened, but I must know, Shu’e uses evil will to control the Hearne Clan’s members for what purpose? What is its objective?"

Shu’e, the one behind Addison’s eighteen-year plight in the Otherworld.

Even knowing Shu’e represents mortal evil wills, no one has ever told her, Shu’e, such mortal evil will, conspiring under the name Ghost Fog, their ultimate goal is for what?

Indeed, he had clashed with Shu’e; it was then, Five-Colored attempted to purify the evil will with his Divine Soul, only to be devoured instead.

Thus, he was aware of Shu’e’s objective—

"To replace the Heavenly Dao, refine the Fortune of Heaven and Earth."

Only at the time, the Heavenly Dao was intact, naturally disregarding Shu’e.

But now...

"Currently, the Heavenly Dao no longer exists. The Ten-tailed Sky Fox is the only one able to touch the Heavenly Dao."

Aaron Hearne looked at Scarlett Jennings, for the first time clearly informing what her existence represented.

"You are not only the hope for the Hearne Clan and the demon clan remaining in the world, but also Shu’e’s sole medium to contact the Heavenly Dao.

He wants to replace the Heavenly Dao, and can only do so through you."

If evil will were to replace the Heavenly Dao and govern all things, one can imagine what kind of world that would be.

Scarlett Jennings could not help but frown simply envisioning it, yet she hadn’t forgotten the current main issue either,

"According to your claim, since his target is me, why focus on the Hearne Clan?"

Aaron Hearne looked at her, after a while, finally replied softly,

"Because Shu’e’s evil will has no effect on you."

Aaron Hearne glanced at her, then at Samuel Chalmers beside her,

"Not only you, but as the Dragon Vein birthed from the Ten-tailed Sky Fox’s Divine Soul, you two are the only entities that Shu’e’s evil will cannot defile, unless you willingly embrace the evil will, otherwise, Shu’e can only use another means..."

He said,

"You likely don’t know, thousands of years ago, the Hearne Lineage almost faced extinction. To protect the Hearne Clan’s bloodline, the former King Fox transformed the Soul Tree from a strand of Spiritual Energy from the Fusang branch, binding all clan members’ Divine Souls to the Soul Tree."

"Though Shu’e cannot directly control the Ten-tailed Sky Fox with evil will, if it controls all Hearne Clan members, it can reverse manipulate you through the unique Soul Tree linkage within the Hearne Lineage."
