Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 1292

Whether it was Millicent's first life or the later eight lives, even in her most difficult lifetime, there had been a benefactor who provided pointers and aid in each life.

Though the endings were not always favorable, she had indeed been gradually improving throughout the different lifetimes. Moreover…

If, according to this trajectory, after the death of the Duke of Ravenvale, he didn't reincarnate but instead relied on his own cultivation to become the powerful Ghost King.

However, with his abilities, how could he have failed to find Millicent's soul over eight lifetimes, even without access to the past-life records?

"Are you sure you've never found Millicent in all those eight lifetimes?" Shannon questioned the Ghost King.

After learning that his wife had been tainted by the murder debt he caused and had to wait a century before she could reincarnate, the Ghost King, no matter how hard he tried to defend himself, could no longer claim that his wife had always been waiting for him.

Amid his remorse, he heard Shannon's question and became grim. "If I'd found her, I wouldn't have let her suffer for all those lifetimes!"

Instead, he would've crowned her as the Ghost Queen!

At that thought, he slowly turned to Vincent, a faint trace of heartache evident in his eyes.

Vincent mused, "No, thanks."

Shannon knew the Ghost King wouldn't lie about this. Thus, the only reason he had never been able to locate Millicent's soul was that… Someone had been deliberating helping her evade his search.

That person could very well be someone from the mystic arts community.

Naturally, such a thing wasn't impossible to achieve. As long as a concealment mark was placed on the soul and repaired in each life, even the Ghost King would be unable to detect it.

Proving her theory was simple; all she needed to do was examine Vincent's soul.

However, she didn't put her thoughts into action. After all, she wouldn't examine his soul over an insignificant theory like that.

She might be curious about that person's identity, but it wasn't something that would consume her.
