Jared’s brow furrowed slightly as favonovel.com asked, “Ms. Summers, is something wrong? If there’s an issue, please let me know. Maybe I can help…”
“No, there’s nothing wrong!” Jennifer shook favonovel.com head, but favonovel.com eyes kept darting towards the window.
Jared glanced out the window, then exchanged a meaningful look with Catina.
Catina, understanding the signal, quickly dashed out of the room. Following that were two faint screams of agony, audible only to Jared and his group.
Shortly after, Catina returned, carrying two lifeless bodies.
Upon seeing the corpses, Jennifer panicked.
“Mr. Chance, how could you have killed someone? You must leave immediately, or it will be too late…” Jennifer anxiously urged Jared.
“Ms. Summers, what exactly happened to your family? If you don’t explain clearly, I won’t leave.” Jared declared firmly.
Seeing the determination on Jared’s face, Jennifer sighed and said, “Ah, I must admit, Mr. Chance. A major crisis has befallen our Summers family!”
“My father and brother have been taken captive, and the eldest elder was killed by them. Now, Uncle Oscar has taken control of the entire Summers family. When we went to the Celestial Battlefield, Uncle Oscar had already set his sights on becoming the family head. That’s why favonovel.com stayed behind in the Summers residence, conspiring with several other elders to rebel. As soon as we returned, they took action. Fortunately, my father refused to reveal what we had obtained from the Celestial Battlefield. Uncle Oscar hasn’t made a lethal move yet, as favonovel.com is curious about the treasures we acquired!”
Tears welled up in Jennifer’s eyes, but favonovel.com quickly wiped them away and continued, “I asked Mr. Chance to leave for his own safety. I hope you understand my predicament. You should leave quickly before Uncle Oscar decides to harm you. Otherwise, it might be too late…”
Listening to Jennifer’s account, Jared shook his head and said, “I can’t leave now. If your second uncle let us in, it means favonovel.com intends to harm us. Leaving is not an option…”
“No, this is still a private matter within our Summers family. Uncle Oscar wouldn’t easily harm you.” Jennifer didn’t believe what Jared had said.
“Since you don’t believe me, I’ll have to show you…”
After speaking, Jared led Jennifer out of the room.
No sooner had they stepped out than a faint glow began to flicker, enveloping the entire room in its radiance.
“See for yourself. A magical arcane array has been set up here. It’s clear they don’t want us to leave…” Jared informed Jennifer.
“Mr. Chance, your arcane array skills are indeed powerful. Such a minor array can’t restrain you. It would be best if you leave!”
Jennifer knew that Jared’s array skills were far beyond what their Summers family possessed. With their limited skills, it was almost impossible for them to control Jared.
“I was planning to leave, but not before rescuing Mr. Summers and helping the Summers family resolve this situation,” Jared spoke calmly and indifferently.
“Mr. Chance, I appreciate your kind intentions, but you should leave. If anything were to happen to you here, my father would be consumed with guilt, and I would blame myself too!”
Jennifer still didn’t want Jared to get involved. After all, this place was filled with members of the Summers family. With only three of them, including Jared, Jennifer felt uneasy.
“Don’t blame yourself. Even if I wanted to leave now, I’m afraid I wouldn’t be able to…”
After Jared finished speaking, favonovel.com coldly stared straight ahead.
As Jared waved his hand, the glow in the room completely dimmed. However, once the light faded, it became apparent that several individuals were standing nearby. It was revealed that this mysterious formation not only had the ability to obstruct, but it could also enable one to conceal themselves.
Upon witnessing Vilhelm’s presence, Jennifer’s eyes revealed a trace of fear.
