Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 729

Suddenly, a bolt of black lightning shot out from the whirlwind, charging straight at Benjamin from behind.

His eyes snapped open, and he felt a scorching sensation on his back the next second. The golden-shaped birthmark radiated dazzling golden light, which coalesced from the storm into the form of a dragon.

Faintly, he could hear the familiar sound of dragon roars whispering in his ears. Then, the dragon formed from the golden light charged toward the lightning, swallowing it whole.

The storm came to an abrupt halt almost instantly.

Benjamin watched as the golden dragon formed from the light detached from his back, enveloping him entirely. It felt as if he were immersed in that powerful golden light…

At the Cooper residence, Benjamin was jolted awake, catching a glimpse of a fleeting golden light that vanished almost instantly.

Seeing the familiar canopy of his bed, he gradually calmed down. "I'm in my room," he told himself.

Furrowing his brows slightly, Benjamin quickly recalled everything that had happened before he fainted. The thought of that bolt of calamity lightning sent uneasiness all over his body.

He was about to move when he suddenly sensed something off in the room. Casting his gaze to the side, he found someone plopped down beside his bed.

Shannon was sound asleep at the moment. Her brows tightened slightly like she was troubled in her dream.

Lifting his gaze, he noticed that his hand, exposed from under the covers, was being held. More specifically, it was his pinky finger that was being gripped, presumably an unconscious action in her sleep.

Her three slender fingers, with baby-pink-tinted nails, gently gripped his pinky. Staring at his hand for a while, Benjamin felt his breath slightly quicken, until he noticed the bandage wrapped across her palm.

Hints of red seeped through the white gauze. His countenance turned solemn. "She got hurt, still?" he wondered.

His fingertips brushed ever-so-gently against her palm wrapped in the bandage, his movement as delicate as a feather's touch. Along with that, a hint of golden light seeped through the gauze and into her palm, silent and subtle.
