Jared’s brow furrowed slightly as he asked, “Ms. Summers, is something wrong? If there’s an issue,
please let me know. Maybe I can help…”
“No, there’s nothing wrong!”
Jennifer shook her head, but her eyes kept darting towards the window. Jared nced out the window,
then exchanged a meaningful look with Catina.
Catina, understanding the signal, quickly dashed out of the room. Following that were two faint
screams of agony, audible only to Jared and his group.
Shortly after, Catina returned, carrying two lifeless bodies.
Upon seeing the corpses, Jennifer panicked.
“Mr. Chance, how could you have killed someone? You must leave immediately, or it will be toote…”
Jennifer anxiously urged Jared.
“Ms. Summers, what exactly happened to your family? If you don’t exin clearly, I won’t leave.”
Jared dered firmly.
Seeing the determination on Jared’s face, Jennifer sighed and said, “Ah, I must admit, Mr. Chance. A
major crisis has befallen our Summers family! My father and brother have been taken captive, and the
eldest elder was killed by them. Now, Uncle Oscar has taken control of the entire Summers family.
When we went to the Celestial Battlefield, Uncle Oscar had already set his sights on bing the
family head. That’s why he stayed behind in the Summers residence, conspiring with several other
elders to rebel. As soon as we returned, they took action. Fortunately, my father refused to reveal what
we had obtained from the Celestial Battlefield. Uncle Oscar hasn’t made a lethal move yet, as he is
curious about the treasures we acquired!”
Tears welled up in Jennifer’s eyes, but she quickly wiped them away and continued, “I asked Mr.
Chance to leave for his own safety. I hope you understand my predicament. You should leave quickly
before Uncle Oscar decides to harm you. Otherwise, it might be toote…”
Listening to Jennifer’s ount, Jared shook his head and said, “I can’t leave now. If your second uncle
let us in, it means he intends to harm us. Leaving is not an option!”
“No, this is still a private matter within our Summers family. Uncle Oscar wouldn’t easily harm you.”
Jennifer didn’t believe what Jared had said.
“Since you don’t believe me, I’ll have to show you…
After speaking, Jared led Jennifer out of the room.
No sooner had they stepped out than a faint glow began to flicker, enveloping the entire room in its
radiance.

“See for yourself. A magical arcane array has been set up here. It’s clear they don’t want us to leave.”
Jared informed Jennifer.
“Mr. Chance, your arcane array skills are indeed powerful. Such a minor array can’t restrain you. It
would be best if you leave!”
Jennifer knew that Jared’s array skills were far beyond what their Summers family possessed.
With their limited skills, it was almost impossible for them to control Jared.
“I was nning to leave, but not before rescuing Mr. Summers and helping the Summers family resolve
this situation!”
Jared spoke calmly and indifferently.
“Mr. Chance, I appreciate your kind intentions, but you should leave. If anything were to happen to you
here, my father would be consumed with guilt, and I would me myself too!”
Jennifer still didn’t want Jared to get involved. After all, this ce was filled with members of the
Summers family. With only three of them, including Jared, Jennifer felt uneasy.
“Don’t me yourself. Even if I wanted to leave now, I’m afraid I wouldn’t be able to…”
After Jared finished speaking, he coldly stared straight ahead.
As Jared waved his hand, the glow in the roompletely dimmed. However, once the light faded, it
became apparent that several individuals were standing nearby.
It was revealed that this mysterious formation not only had the ability to obstruct, but it could also
enable one to conceal themselves.
Upon witnessing Vilhelm’s presence, Jennifer’s eyes revealed a trace of fear.
