Chapter 259: Chapter 259 I Won

The sudden rainstorm stunned everyone on site.

Gregory Xander and others stared incredulously at the pouring rain, unable to regain their senses even as the raindrops pelted them.

Director Clark reacted first, shouting to his staff through the earpiece, "Protect the equipment, hurry!"

The program’s setup was extremely expensive!

Even though they wore raincoats just in case, this rain was clearly too much.

As if awoken by this voice, the guests and the new students from the Taoism Academy quickly ran towards a nearby building.

Halfway there, they remembered Scarlett Jennings was still standing in the rain, and several guests hurriedly turned around to pull her away.

Yet another loud thunderclap overhead interrupted them.

Compared to the previous rumble, this thunder sounded like it exploded right above them.

The two teachers from the Taoism Academy instinctively looked up, their expressions changing, as they hurriedly shouted to Scarlett Jennings, who was standing in the distance,

"Wrap it up, quickly wrap it up!"

Scarlett Jennings was evidently also startled, seemingly not expecting her first rainmaking attempt to be so explosive.

The wind and rain pounded around, yet she did not appear too disheveled.

As the torrential rain fell, the four Rainmaking Talismans automatically circled around her, forming a barrier that blocked most of the rain.

Though it didn’t completely shield her from the wind and rain, it significantly reduced their intensity.

However, the overwhelming clouds overhead and the faint lightning within them, as if brewing some kind of grand move, made Scarlett Jennings frown.

Just as she hesitated whether to stop the rainmaking, she heard Teacher Leander shout.

"Wrap it up!"

Upon hearing his voice, Scarlett Jennings instantly mirrored Gregory Xander’s final hand gesture to wrap things up. She lifted her hand, retracting the four Talismans floating around her that had shielded her from much of the wind and rain.

The heavy rain poured down, and Scarlett Jennings was instantly drenched.

However, the lightning that seemed to be brewing in the clouds dissipated quietly once she stopped the ritual.

Soon, the wind weakened, and the rain subsided.

Before long, the dark clouds overhead began to disperse.

Samuel Chalmers watched as Scarlett Jennings’s figure was veiled by the wind and rain, his face unusually solemn.

It wasn’t until the faint heat in his palm faded that the screen in the live broadcast slowly cleared.

In just a moment, Scarlett Jennings was soaked from head to toe.

She slowly walked towards the camera, looking unexpectedly disheveled.

Yet this did nothing to affect her ethereal beauty, especially with her face washed clean by the rain, so pure that no one could look away.

Samuel Chalmers didn’t know how long he stood there watching until he heard Dashiell’s roar from downstairs.

"Why did it stop? My rain!"

Samuel Chalmers ignored the little Flood Dragon downstairs, instead picking up his phone to open their chat page.

He typed a word, deleted it, typed again, and eventually couldn’t send anything.

Tossing the phone back onto the table, Samuel Chalmers’s dark eyes rested on the mark in his palm, carrying a hint of contemplation and deep thought.

Meanwhile, as soon as Scarlett Jennings stepped into the building, Ariel Zimmerman greeted her with a large towel, wrapping it around her head, leaving only her face visible.

The freshmen beside her instinctively made space for her, looking at her with expressions of awe, or perhaps like she was a creature from another world.

Leander quickly walked over, examining her from head to toe, and asked,

"How do you feel? Any discomfort?"

Like perhaps spiritual power depletion?

Faced with her teacher’s concern, Scarlett Jennings shook her head honestly from within the towel.

She felt fine. freёweɓnovel.com

Gregory Xander also stepped forward, his expression as complicated as if he’d seen a ghost.
