Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 1828

The soaring grudge collided with Benjamin's golden light barrier, only to be bounced back.

The scattered grudge swirled within the barrier; the visible, tangible grudge left the Drakenshade members in the grand hall dumbfounded.

The grudge energy seemed to take on a physical form, writhing in pain and howling within the barrier. The commotion reached the ears of the Drakenshade women guarding the entrance, and they immediately sensed something was wrong.

Seizing the moment of their distraction, Faye swiftly dashed into the grand hall.

The Drakenshade women, or the unmarried girls, tried to stop her, but as they reached the second gate's threshold, they suddenly came to a halt.

They couldn't go any further.

Beyond that point lay the main chamber of the family's grand hall, a sacred space that, as women, they were strictly forbidden to enter. Even stepping through the first gate had already been a grave violation of tradition.

As the group hesitated to retreat, one explained, "What's inside?"

Through the spirit screen of the second gate, the women caught a glimpse of the scene inside the main hall. Instinctively, one of them stepped over the threshold and moved inside.

Once the first did it, the second followed. As more of them passed the screen and saw the scene in the main chamber, they were instantly frozen in place, staring in shock.

When Alistair saw them, his already solemn face turned furious. "Who allowed you guys to come in here?"

And then there was Faye, who had actually barged in.

To make matters worse, the clan members had all been knocked down by that strange turtle and the little paper figures, leaving no one to stop her!

Faye herself didn't even know what was happening. Ever since she'd stepped into Draken Village, it felt like something invisible had been pulling her toward it.
