Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 1041

"I changed my mind! I don't want the alligator-snapping turtle anymore! Put me into that!" said the system. It wanted that emerald pendant.

Never mind the rich spiritual energy on that stone turtle emerald pendant, the system even detected a unique energy. It was as if it carried a summons, suggesting it could return to its former peak state by simply residing within the emerald pendant.

Perhaps due to its eager reaction, Shannon thought it was nothing more than a trick. She would be insane to let it take over the pendant.

Before it could reach the stone turtle emerald pendant, Shannon extended her hand and swiftly kept it.

The system seemingly sensed her stance and was exasperated. "If you let me bind with the pendant, I'll tell you everything you want."

Shannon's expression softened at that. She glanced at it lightly and adamantly rejected, "Never."

As the carver of the stone turtle emerald pendant, she knew more than anyone the specialty of the item. Especially when she was carving the patterns on the turtle shell, her spiritual energy was consumed unusually rapidly each time.

She was aware of its issue.

After witnessing the system's interest in the pendant, Shannon became more confident in her theory. Since it was special, she naturally wouldn't bind it to the system.

At her nonchalance, the system knew it had to disclose something to get a reaction out of her. Gritting its teeth, it said, "Aren't you curious about the alternate world and the rebirth soul? I can tell you about them."

"Compared to that, I'm more interested to know what you sensed from this pendant." Shannon stared at Tortoise the System. "Give me a reason why you so desperately want to bind with it."

The system was aware that its reaction earlier had aroused her suspicion; it simply couldn't help itself. It couldn't tell her that that item could recover its long-lost energy, could it?

The following morning, at the Cooper residence, after finishing breakfast, Benjamin was ready to set out for the day. He had just stepped out of the villa when the familiar presence of fire lightning hovered over him.

His gaze darkened, and he prepared to move when he sensed something awry the next second. Realizing something, he suddenly turned around.

In the clear sky, a bolt of fire lightning struck without warning, crashing down with a deafening roar, and exploded directly on the roof of the Jensen residence. The exact spot where the lightning struck, with perfect precision, was none other than Shannon's room.

Benjamin's eyes narrowed in shock. His figure flashed, and instantly, he disappeared from the spot.
