The Fake Heiress Turns Out to Be a True Tycoon! novel Chapter 793

Chapter 793: Chapter 793: Remove the Command Flag, Open the Barrier

The man barely had time to react to the sudden appearance of Scarlett Jennings before he was struck fiercely.

Screams were drowned out in the lightning glow of the demon thunder.

At the same time, the unbreakable black threads gradually turned into ash as the man was struck and charred.

Scarlett Jennings ensured the man was no longer moving before looking at Samuel Chalmers, "Are you alright?"

Samuel Chalmers observed her instinctively grabbing his hand and simply said, "Don’t worry, I’ll be fine."

Scarlett Jennings secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Without Samuel Chalmers’ cooperation, dealing with this man alone would have been much more difficult.

"Let’s find my brothers in the basement first."

Despite her words, Scarlett Jennings and Samuel Chalmers went downstairs to check Gregory Xander and the others’ conditions first.

Downstairs, Sophie Harper and Gregory Xander, who were being controlled, felt the sudden release of the pervasive sense of bind enveloping their spirits and bodies as the black threads turned to ash behind them.

Although they didn’t know what spell Scarlett Jennings just used for instantaneous teleportation, she had clearly dealt with the person behind all this.

The black mist in the villa gradually dissipated with the man’s death, at least it wouldn’t hinder their actions anymore.

Scarlett Jennings and Samuel Chalmers descended from upstairs, raised their hands to release the binds from both a person and a ghost, and led them to the basement.

The Jennings Family has two basements, one in the East Tower and one in the West Tower.

Donovan Jennings and the others were in the East Tower basement.

When dealing with Azura Loomis and the system, Gregory Xander and Ashton Todd set up an array here to deceive the system’s detection.

Later, Scarlett Jennings modified the existing evil-suppressing array into a barrier-type array.

After all, creating an array covering the whole villa was too costly, but a single basement was much simpler.

When the group arrived at the basement, they saw the basement door tightly shut.

Outside the door, a small red command flag stood unsupported, different from the one Elysia Xander used to control Ashton Todd and open the barrier. This flag was covered with complex protective talismans and possessed formidable mana.

From Scarlett Jennings’ perspective, she could see that the command flag had reinforced the barrier over her original one.

Logically, with such a powerful array barrier protecting the Jennings Family, staying inside should be the safest option.

But unfortunately, there’s still Layla Xalvadora inside.

According to Gregory Xander, the Dreamy Tapirus’ true form is parasitic within Layla Xalvadora’s spiritual body, so they must bring her out first.

With this in mind, Scarlett Jennings directly used Spiritual Affairs to contact Donovan Jennings.

Before long, the basement door opened, Donovan Jennings appeared in the doorway, in much better shape than Gregory Xander, neither too disheveled nor losing his calm demeanor.

Scarlett Jennings couldn’t see the others inside, so she asked Donovan Jennings,

"Bro, are you guys okay?"

"Uncle and the butlers have fallen into a deep sleep, but we’re alright." Donovan Jennings said, "Now you’re here, we’re even better."

Scarlett Jennings finally breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this. Though the door was open, they couldn’t enter due to the barrier.

Since the command flag is an heirloom from the Xander Family, removing the boundary order from outside is extremely difficult. The best way is to have someone inside the barrier remove the flag.

Thinking of this, Scarlett Jennings shared her idea with Donovan Jennings.

"Senior Brother Xander taught you the password, remove the command flag to open the barrier."

She intended to bring Layla Xalvadora out first.

Donovan Jennings looked at her but didn’t immediately act, his usually smiling face now extraordinarily composed.

"Scarlett, can you first prove to me that you’re not being controlled?"

It was clear Donovan Jennings was already aware of Sophie Harper and Gregory Xander being manipulated.

Though he trusted Scarlett Jennings’ abilities, as one of the few remaining clear-headed members of the family, he must be responsible for the Jennings Family inside the barrier.

Even if those in front of him seemed normal, what if the black threads are hidden somehow?

Scarlett Jennings didn’t find this request unreasonable either.
