Chapter 306: Chapter 306: Orthodox and Heretical Paths, I Have the Final Say Chapter 306: Chapter 306: Orthodox and Heretical Paths, I Have the Final Say Scarlett Jennings wanted to say that she didn’t come back alone, but Donovan Jennings clearly wasn’t listening, and stuffed her into the car without explanation. It was only later that he turned to look in the direction of Samuel Chalmers. Samuel Chalmers stood in place, his posture straight and resolute, scoffing at him, “Childish.” Donovan Jennings recognized his lip movement and scoffed coldly, “Shameless.” Using his reputation to deceive his naive, adorable sister! Shameless! Scarlett Jennings didn’t pay attention to the disputes, and immediately opened the Spiritual Affairs app to track the location after getting into the car. This Soul Chasing Formation was specially refined by her for that mysterious person behind the scenes, taking quite some time; this time she had to catch the person. When Donovan Jennings mentioned going home, she immediately stopped him, “Let’s not go home. Head to this location instead.” Scarlett Jennings showed the driver the location on the GPS. When Donovan Jennings heard that she had just got off the plane and was now chasing some Evil Cultivator, he disagreed and was just about to advise her when Scarlett Jennings said, “This is the Evil Cultivator who originally taught the Garrison Family the Magic of swapping Fate Charts.” Those words turned Donovan Jennings’ gaze icy cold. So, it was the same Evil Cultivator who targeted his sister’s fate and used underhanded methods to steal Scarlett from the Jennings Family hospital room. With no intention to dissuade further, Donovan Jennings glanced at the location on Scarlett Jennings’ phone in a certain forested area, pulled out his phone resolutely, and dialed a number, “It’s me. Call three helicopters and fifty drones over.” In his usually gentle voice, a hint of dangerous chill now lingered, “I want to encircle the mountain.” Scarlett Jennings: ... Can we even operate like this?? Well... I’ve learned something new. Because of the Jennings Family’s strong intervention, the Safety Bureau officers, who initially thought they would need two or three days to search the mountains, quickly located the old man trying to hide in the mountains and escape. Already seriously injured from the backlash of the Soul-locking, while setting up a Mist Barrier against the pursuing Security Bureau officers behind him, the old man did not anticipate the sudden appearance of several drones above him, which closely locked onto him with their cameras. Soon helicopters also hovered above. The old man was captured without any resistance. When Scarlett Jennings and Donovan Jennings came down from the helicopter, they saw the old man being restrained by several Safety Bureau officers. He was enveloped in a heavy burden of bad karma, carrying an obviously unnaturally extended lifespan. Clearly, he used Evil Technique to extend his lifespan. Using innocent lives no less. Such immorally acquired arts should have left him childless, and yet he had a son. Unfortunately, the sins of the father meant the son had to bear part of the consequences, condemned to a life of misfortune. Upon reading the old man’s facial features, Scarlett Jennings understood why he went through such lengths to scheme against her. “My master once mentioned my Fate Chart is special; ordinary people who try to take it would be stricken by heavenly retribution. That’s why you searched for Isolde Garrison, whose Fate Chart is the polar opposite to mine, aiming to transfer my Fate Chart to her,” Once the transfer of the Fate Chart was successful, her Fate Chart would then transfer from Isolde Garrison to his son. Having Isolde Garrison as an “intermediary,” even heavenly punishments wouldn’t fall onto his own child. Quite meticulous planning. Unfortunately, it was all a wasted effort. Seeing that Scarlett Jennings exposed his eighteen years of planning upon facing him, the old man glared at her with a venomous and fierce look, “It’s my fault for not guarding against you acquiring such skills. Your master is skilled, but her methods are unorthodox, and her end might not be any better than mine!” Hearing the old man question her master’s integrity, Scarlett Jennings’ brows furrowed slightly, and her voice grew colder, “How dare you compare my master to your wicked ways!” The old man laughed heartily, “I’ve watched your live broadcasts performing those Magic techniques; that Soul-locking Formation alone is not a righteous method. Didn’t your master tell you when teaching you that what you’ve learned is also considered deviant by the orthodox community?!” The old man spoke unabashedly. The arresting officers, including Victor Quintero, were inwardly shocked and looked towards Scarlett Jennings, but she maintained a cool and practiced demeanor, clearly not perturbed by his words. “Whether it’s orthodox or evil, you don’t get to decide; I do.” Scarlett Jennings finished talking, raised her hand, and suddenly cast a spirit talisman on the elder. The elder’s turbid eyes abruptly widened. The next second, his skin visibly wrinkled and dark spots appeared, and his originally grayish hair also turned rough like grass. If he initially looked like an eighty-year-old man, now he appeared more like a withered old demon on the brink of death. Victor Quintero’s expression drastically changed as he looked at Scarlett Jennings, “Miss Jennings! You...” She actually carried out vigilantism right in front of the Security Bureau staff! Scarlett Jennings looked at Victor Quintero, her almond eyes cold and detached, “This is the last debt he owed me. It’s perfectly justified for me to claim it back.” If Heavenly Dao doesn’t punish her, the Security Bureau has even less ground to condemn her. Donovan Jennings stood by the entire time watching, although he didn’t quite understand the nuances of orthodox versus evil techniques, he knew that whatever his sister did was right. He subtly stepped forward, imperceptibly positioning himself to protect her. Donovan Jennings’ eyes darkly met those of the Security Bureau staff, offering only a faint smile, “What? We’ve helped you capture him, do we also have to escort you back?” His implication was for them to mind their own business, he wasn’t accompanying them. And they better not think about bullying his sister in his presence. Although Victor Quintero felt that Scarlett Jennings’ previous actions were somewhat reckless, he couldn’t really say anything too harsh. After thinking it over, he first took the elder back to the bureau. But... With the elder in this condition, might he not even make it to the bureau before dying? Without further delay, Victor Quintero hurriedly took the man back to the bureau. The Security Bureau hadn’t even held a trial to convict him yet. Although Scarlett Jennings said she wouldn’t intervene, she still followed them back to the Security Bureau. Her initial action was driven by the conservative operational style of the Security Bureau, which would typically neutralize the cultivation of someone like the elder and confine him for life for special cases. But on what grounds? Eighteen years of karma; she had to reclaim what was owed to her. The group grandly returned to the city, and this time Scarlett Jennings didn’t take the helicopter back with Donovan Jennings. It was too conspicuous. After a brief interrogation at the Security Bureau, Scarlett Jennings unexpectedly learned another piece of news. Isolde Garrison was dead. Initially, the Security Bureau had sent people to unsuccessfully capture the elder and thus had dispatched others to investigate the previously detected fluctuations of evil technique. That led to the discovery of Isolde Garrison left in a suburban house. By then, her body was already soaked with blood. Clearly showing signs of torment by an evil technique. No matter what Isolde Garrison’s initial motive was, she was ultimately a victim of evil techniques, and the bureau naturally notified her family. Scarlett Jennings had just left the Security Bureau when she encountered Josiah Garrison, who had just claimed the body. Josiah Garrison no longer had his past splendor; his shirt wrinkled, his face stubbled, exuding a sense of despair and numbness. And such numbness, upon suddenly seeing Scarlett Jennings, violently burst into several fierce glares. He suddenly rushed towards Scarlett Jennings direction. Scarlett Jennings did not move, and neither did Donovan Jennings. Josiah Garrison was straightforwardly stopped by a bodyguard before he could get close to the two. “Scarlett!” Even after being stopped, Josiah Garrison kept his eyes painfully fixed on Scarlett Jennings’ direction. “Scarlett, Isolde is gone; can you ... let go of the Garrison family?” The implication of his words was that he thought Scarlett Jennings was responsible for Isolde Garrison’s death.
