The Fake Heiress Turns Out to Be a True Tycoon! novel Chapter 792

Chapter 792: Chapter 792: Puppet Silk

Scarlett Jennings and Samuel Chalmers felt a simultaneous heaviness in their hearts upon hearing this.

The sudden appearance of the Dreamy Tapirus in Sea City, coupled with the Black Mist Organization’s large-scale movements, was suspicious in itself.

But if the Dreamy Tapirus had been hiding inside Layla Xalvadora since Peaceful City, following her all the way to Sea City, everything suddenly made perfect sense.

"Elysia Xander choosing Layla as the target for the Face Changing Technique wasn’t a coincidence."

They thought the Black Mist Organization was just trying to find a face related to John Dawn for Elysia, to divert everyone’s attention and obscure Diana Craig’s existence.

But in reality, perhaps from the very outset... Layla was the parasitic host arranged by the Black Mist Organization for the Dreamy Tapirus.

Elysia Xander was not just covering for Diana Craig, it was for the Dreamy Tapirus!

"I was careless."

Samuel Chalmers took the primary responsibility with a deep voice.

After all, finding the Dreamy Tapirus was originally his task.

Yet he allowed its true form to hide right under his nose.

"You said that once the Dreamy Tapirus finds a suitable host, it will perfectly conceal all traits, so it’s not about being careless."

If anyone was careless, she hadn’t noticed anything amiss either.

Now is not the time to assign blame.

When Scarlett said this, her hand discreetly reached into her bag, pulling out a mini peach wood sword the size of a finger.

This was a mini wooden sword made from the leftover material of the Millennium Thunderstruck Wood she had.

Scarlett had intended to use them as amulets, engraving runes on each mini wooden sword, and now was the time to use them.

Scarlett quietly infused the mini wooden sword with spiritual power, watching as the sword’s body lit up with a talisman light before it floated unsteadily.

Just then, an impatient voice came from upstairs, the instigator finally speaking,

"You’ve talked too much!"

As he spoke, he was about to manipulate Gregory Xander into action once more.

Scarlett seized the moment, quickly chanting,

"Hundred Gods Return to Life, Myriad Officers Follow, Break!"

With the final word of the commanding spell, the once wavering mini wooden sword suddenly shot toward the direction behind Gregory Xander.

Gregory and Sophie Harper noticed something flying out of Scarlett’s palm.

By the time they realized, the mini wooden sword was already slashing towards the black threads connected to Gregory from behind, flickering with lightning.

Gregory’s eyes first brightened, then dimmed with an expression of pain.

It’s useless.

He had tried.

As if in response to Gregory’s reaction, the mini wooden sword cut through the black mist but could not sever the black threads controlling Gregory.

The threads seemed to have a resilient quality, pulling taut.

Seeing this, Scarlett instinctively intensified the spiritual power she was exerting.

"Break!"

The surrounding spiritual light of the mini wooden sword flared up, a surge of spiritual power hitting the threads.

The next second, the threads finally snapped under the shock of the sword qi and spiritual light, but as they separated, Gregory Xander was also launched away.

Gregory seemed to be pushed away by the mini wooden sword, suddenly crashing to the ground.

Scarlett’s pupils trembled slightly, and she quickly pulled back.

"Gregory!"

Scarlett wanted to ask more, but Sophie Harper moved again.

A fierce ghost energy attacked her directly, and Scarlett, fearing to harm her, could only use a spirit talisman to force her back.

Sophie Harper’s expression was pained, yet she couldn’t control her ghost energy at all.
