The light in her eyes flickered, as if her heart that had been suspended finally settled down.
Magnolia Hearne felt a sourness at the tip of her nose but managed to hold back her tears in public.
Though she hadn’t said she could definitely help, at least this time, she stood by Scarlett and her side.
That was enough.
On the other side, the clan elders had clearly understood Emily Hearne’s choice, though one of them was about to speak to dissuade her, Elder Noah raised his hand to stop him.
They had said all that needed to be said. Since the King Fox had made a choice, these old folks couldn’t forcefully interfere too much.
After this matter, Noah also realized some of the shortcomings in his and the other elders’ thinking.
Perhaps...
They should try to trust these young imps a bit more.
Although they were young, after this, they had to admit to everyone in the clan that these young ones seemed to hold infinite possibilities compared to these old fogies.
After figuring this out, Elder Noah straightforwardly said,
"The matters of the clan will be left to us old ones, you may go."
Emily Hearne raised her eyebrows, looked at Noah in front of her for a long while, then nodded,
"Then I’ll leave the clan land to you all."
Emily Hearne and Magnolia Hearne left immediately, but just as they were about to depart, the long-absent Hannah Hearne suddenly appeared.
She approached and without preamble said,
"Scarlett is Scarlett, it doesn’t matter what others say, you should always choose her."
Magnolia knew she was on good terms with Scarlett and thought she’d said that because she’d heard about Scarlett’s situation with Althea’s Divine Soul, so she nodded at once,
"She is my daughter, I will of course choose her."
Hannah wanted to say more, but Emily Hearne already spoke up,
"Got it."
She gave Hannah a meaningful look, saying,
"Don’t worry."
Magnolia was puzzled, but Emily said no more, and the two quickly left the clan land for Sea City.
...
With Emily Hearne’s demonic power, reaching Sea City took only an instant, but since they started late, it was already night when they arrived at the Jennings Family home.
Meanwhile, Althea, who had just concluded a "family meeting" that afternoon, stood at the staircase, locking eyes with a certain turtle.
When she woke up in Scarlett Jennings’ body, she sensed the villa was full of various mixed auras.
There was not only a Ghost Messenger, a fox with half-opened Spiritual Wisdom, a turtle possessed by an Evil Spirit from the Otherworld, a Half-Demon, a human with Child Life but also the Power of Word Spirit, and... the Divine Beast, Benedict Beast.
To be precise, it was the spiritual body of Benedict Beast.
Although knowing their essence was different, appearance-wise, they looked like turtles.
"Benedict... why aren’t you watching over your mountains and rivers properly, but running here?"
Althea said, eyeing its jade body, which resembled a Crocodile Tortoise, with a profound meaning,
"And getting so chubby."
Benedict: ...
Knowing it would be critiqued, that’s why ever since discovering who the consciousness inside Scarlett Jennings was, it stayed hidden in the room pretending to be a Jade object.
Who would have thought that just sneaking out for a stroll, it got caught?
Didn’t Kingston Jennings say she’d gone out to find fun things to eat?
Benedict couldn’t help but look at itself again.
It wasn’t very fat.

Althea hadn’t meant to hide the fact she wasn’t Scarlett Jennings, and wasn’t surprised by the Jennings’ Family’s attitude towards her, but seeing this, she deliberately said,
