Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 998

With the collective effort of the five ghosts, the spinning carousel visibly slowed down.

Kai was unfamiliar with mystic arts and spells but was genuinely impressed. He was surprised to know ghosts could be utilized this way.

Besides, he was familiar with the concept of five ghosts. Not only that, but the spell appeared… different.

No one else witnessed the supernatural scene. All the crowd knew was that the carousel had slowed down after Shannon cast a spell.

Instantly, the other families were both in awe and shock. It was no wonder the Jensens heavily indulged Shannon. Had they been in their shoes, they would've done the same! Who wouldn't want to look after and favor such a capable mystic master?

Those with family members on the carousel soon forgot to express their complaints and quietly watched the platform decelerate to its initial speed. At last, the carousel appeared to be halting.

While the men, dressed in suits, could easily move around, the ladies wearing gowns and high heels had a hard time alighting. Though anxious, they had no choice but to wait for the carousel to halt completely.

Shannon's expression turned solemn. She ignored her broken mudra and spell and swiftly shouted at the descending riders, "Everyone, stay still and hold tight!"
