Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 1650

The golden crown of the tree, which seemed to dominate the very space around it, seemed to glow even brighter as Benjamin stood there. The trunk of the tree also seemingly shimmered with golden specks of light.

The breeze gently swept through, and without thinking, Shannon instinctively took a step toward him.

However, just as her foot moved, she felt several powerful presences pressing down on her from all directions. The weight of the pressure was unmistakable.

"Who dares to trespass the barrier?" A deep, resonant voice of an elder echoed in her ears.

Shannon focused her gaze and realized that there were several other presences standing around the figure enveloped in Benjamin's golden light.

Perhaps the brilliance of the golden light had been so dazzling that she subconsciously overlooked the figures around him. But as she looked more closely, she noticed two familiar faces among them, aside from a few unfamiliar elders.

One was Luke, the chief of the Special Security Agency; the other was Reuben, the chief of the Demon Control Agency.

The other elders were unfamiliar faces to her, but she could somewhat deduce their identities. By then, she realized she had interrupted some kind of important meeting.

Seeing the elder earlier was about to strike, Reuben and Luke stepped forward simultaneously.

"She's a Demon Control Agent."

"She's a Special Security Agent."

The two spoke simultaneously. As they exchanged glances with each other, their eyes carried a hint of provocation.

The elder furrowed his brows, about to speak, when the person standing in the center slowly spoke up.

The familiar, deep voice, carrying a tone of solemnity, simply said, "The maple crown is no longer a concern, and I'm aware of the remaining matters. You may leave now."

At that, Luke and Reuben, at odds earlier, looked simultaneously at him and nodded. "Sure."
