Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 1772

At that moment, Benjamin felt as if something swiftly filled his chest, and he instinctively reached out to catch Shannon.

She could now see every inch of her face, but she wasn't happy about it. Every time she saw him this clearly, it meant his power was fading.

But at least he was still here.

The thought barely settled in her mind when her gaze swept over his surroundings, and her expression darkened.

As the golden barrier shattered, the water beneath Benjamin surged, and several eerie sea demons rose and burst forth from the depths.

Their bodies reeked of putrefied supernatural energy and moved in absolute silence as they quickly encircled him. Almost immediately after, they lunged toward Benjamin in unison.

One of them, a grotesque-looking man, stretched out his arms, which morphed into massive fanged tentacles. They sliced through the air and aimed straight for Benjamin's heart.

Shannon's pupils constricted sharply. She tried to move and stop them, but it was too late.

He understood her meaning instantly, almost as if an unspoken trust was etched into his very bones.

He reached for her hand without hesitation as what remained of his golden light poured into her, and then teleported.

Shannon, who'd been plummeting, was suddenly pulled into his arms.

At the same time, her four fox tails spread wide and curled around them both. As they blocked the tentacle attack, a shockwave of supernatural strength erupted outward.

The sea demons stumbled back and prepared to charge again, only to see Shannon's fox tails snap open once more.

She turned with one hand forming a mudra, and the other raised her glowing supernatural talisman.

"Gods of sky, fire, and heart; heed the call, descend with might… By my decree, heavens and earth, comes thunderfire!"
