Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 1558

Benjamin had once mentioned that Dreambeast was skilled in concealing its true self. Even when it devoured dreams, it only sent its clones.

That was how it managed to trap so many people at once in a deep sleep.

So, even if they couldn't locate its true self, they would destroy every single clone. The more clones they killed, the more damage the true self would suffer.

That was the real reason Shannon summoned the ghosts of the Dark Mountain. And the best thing about using these ghosts compared to ordinary ones was that they were controllable.

The King of the Dark Mountain had initially disdained her request and thought she'd summoned his subordinates for something as trivial as that. But when hearing they were allowed to beat something up, he suddenly felt much better about it.

"Your wish is my command," he said. With a wave of his massive hand, the King of Dark Mountain and all ghosts vanished.

…

In the city, Lexie and the others escaped the black smoke and quickly contacted the Seastone Security Branch Agency.

Once they explained the situation, Seastone Security Branch Agency immediately locked onto several high-fortune families. Heston pinpointed their locations and teleported the team to the first site.

Triston was assigned to the Whites, one of Seastone City's four most prestigious families. But by the time they arrived, several members of the White Family had collapsed on the ground.

After taking a closer look, they realized it was mostly the older generation that'd fallen asleep including Leonel, the current head of the White Family. The younger members were completely fine.

Triston walked in to see the entire younger generation of the Whites along with the housekeepers and bodyguards sitting together gossiping.

The gossip was mostly about the Whites and renowned families in Seastone. With the older generation mysteriously passing out, they seized the opportunity to vent their frustrations.

They mocked Leonel for being blind and having such an incredibly capable daughter yet underestimating her.

They mocked Landon for being insane and swapping his newborn daughter, Harvey, for another family's son, Travis, just so he could have a son.

As the shareholders plotted to drive Yvette out of the company, the conference room doors burst open. Yvette strode in with a large group, and her sharp gaze swept across the room.

Laughing coldly, she turned to Leonel and sneered. "You're getting old, old man. About time to retire."

She waved, and several men seized Leonel to drag him toward the door.

Leonel erupted in fury and shouted profanities at her. But Yvette suddenly turned to him with a sinister smile and declared, "From now on, I'm the head of the White family. And old men like you should just be eaten."

As she spoke, her mouth stretched open unnaturally wide, while her form shifted to morph into a black nightmarish creature. It had a gaping mouth large enough to swallow him whole.

Leonel froze and was paralyzed with fear. Just as he thought the monstrous Yvette was about to swallow him up, a gust of cold wind swept through the room.

Another Yvette appeared and sent the monster flying with a single brutal kick. It stumbled and crashed into the wall of the conference room.
