His gaze lingered on her.

After returning to her room, Scarlett didn’t rush to do anything.

It was the middle of the night, and just as Cody had said, it wasn’t a good time to go out searching for clues.

At dawn, when the sky had only just begun to pale, Scarlett woke up, practiced her cultivation, and washed up.

Since returning from rebirth, she hadn’t skipped a single day of cultivation.

By the time the sky brightened, her phone rang.

It was Cody calling.

Scarlett knew everyone must already be up.

She grabbed her things and stepped outside. The other four were already waiting for her in the hallway.

When Cody saw her come out, he waved.

“Ms. Sanchez, let’s go downstairs and grab breakfast first. Something happened last night, and I should fill

in.”

Scarlett nodded.

The five of them headed downstairs together and found a small diner.

After they went in and ordered food, Cody finally told her,

“Last night around 11 p.m., someone called Weston and demanded ransom.”

Weston was Nathan and Ivy’s biological father.

After receiving the call, Weston immediately phoned Nathan, and as usual, he unleashed a stream of curses.

He blamed Nathan for taking Ivy away and failing to take care of her.

Now, she had been kidnapped, and the kidnappers were demanding money from him.

After hearing this, Scarlett asked, “How much ransom?”

Cody replied, “50 million.”

Scarlett frowned.

Cody immediately said, “Exactly. I thought it was strange too. Why would someone kidnap Ivy and ask Weston for 50 million?”

Fifty million sounded like a lot.

But in reality, it wasn’t that much.

Would kidnappers really spend this much manpower, time, and resources just for 50 million?

If Cody hadn’t known about the sigils involved, he probably wouldn’t have thought much of it.

But now, the case involved occult elements

Those sigils weren’t ordinary scribbles.

The whole situation didn’t add up.

Could there be another conspiracy behind all of this?

Everyone present was smart enough to realize that possibility.

Scarlett didn’t say anything more, lost in thought.

The others also fell silent.

Since the kidnappers had already contacted the siblings‘ father and demanded ransom, the next step was naturally to continue tracking them down.

Weston had agreed to cooperate. He also wanted his daughter found as soon as possible.

Soon, the breakfast they ordered arrived.

Most of them barely had any appetite.

Scarlett, however, finished her meal completely.

After breakfast, Cody said, “Ms. Sanchez, we’re planning to check the location where Killian disappeared yesterday. Would you like to come with us?”

“Of course.”

As she spoke, Scarlett took four sigils from the backpack she carried with her and handed them to the others.

“These are protection sigils. Keep them with you. If necessary, they might save your lives.

At the moment, none of their physiognomy showed signs of imminent danger.

But it was better to be safe than sorry. They were ordinary people. Scarlett could protect herself if they encountered hidden forces, but the others might not.

Before rushing to catch the flight yesterday, she had quickly gone back to gather some things.

Mainly, the sigils she had been drawing over the past few months.

Her cultivation level wasn’t extremely high, but with the spiritual essence in her consciousness, drawing sigils wasn’t difficult.

The problem was that every sigil she drew almost completely drained the spiritual energy in her body.

Strangely enough, that actually helped her cultivation.

This had basically become her training method recently.

Aside from protection sigils, she had also drawn several attack sigils–thunder sigils.

There were many types of attack sigils.

But the only one she focused on was the thunder sigil.

Thunder sigils were among the most difficult attack sigils to draw.

Sigils themselves were divided into three grades.

Low–grade sigils, mid–grade sigils, and high–grade sigils.

The grade referred to the amount of energy contained within each completed sigil.

For example, when Scarlett first began drawing protection sigils, they were already mid–grade. After all, she had mastered sigil drawing in other worlds long ago.

As she practiced more, most of the protection sigils she produced eventually became high- grade.

Thunder sigils, on the other hand, were among the hardest sigils to create.

Just managing to draw one at all was already an achievement.

At first, they might not even qualify as low–grade. Even if a lightning strike was summoned, it wouldn’t cause much damage.

But once a thunder sigil reached even the lowest proper grade, its power became formidable.

in fact, she still ended up slightly injured and had to rest for several days.

Aside from protection sigils and thunder sigils, she had also drawn various other sigils here and there.
