The Genius Mage Chapter 73
Advertisement
The guards quickly understood what elder Pierre had said. Two of them dragged Audrey to the backyard.
Calder's obstruction was completely useless. From the moment they entered the ancestral hall, Calder's power had been restricted.
"What exactly do you want to do to Audrey?" Calder was on the verge of insanity. He could not accept that something had happened to Audrey in front of him.
The Great Clan Elder, Pierre, smiled with his wrinkled face. "Don't you know best what I want to do?"
However, they did not stop after they reached the backyard.
Audrey's mind stirred. She knew that there must be some secret between the Great Clan Elder, Pierre, and Houston.
She estimated the combat strength of the guards in her mind. It was definitely impossible to attack them at close range, but it would not be a problem if she were to be far away.
My magic level is still too low...
In a flash, the guards had brought Audrey to the rockery in the backyard.
Houston had left the ancestral hall and was waiting there early, seeing that Audrey had only raised her eyelids to take a glance, he continued to speak to the guards, "Everything is ready, right? There's nothing left behind, right?"
The guard glanced at Audrey. "Everything is ready, elder Houston."
Houston nodded to himself. After gathering combat aura, he placed his hands on the rockery and moved slightly. A space that had gathered many elements suddenly appeared.
"Audrey, cut your hands and put them up," Houston ordered. "Don't think of playing tricks in front of me. If you don't want anything to happen to your father, Calder, you'd better do as I say."
Audrey herself did not have any objections.
The density of the elements in this space was twice as high as the purity in this world...

Audrey released her magic to check the space, but she did not find anything threatening.
She cut her hand as Houston requested, covering the rocks on the rockery.
The light of the space suddenly lit up as Audrey silently calculated the degree of elemental release.
Houston watched the scene in front of him with extreme fanaticism and confusion.
He had experimented with this array formation countless times. He had experimented with both his and Kaki's blood. He had even obtained Calder's blood.
However, the array formation seemed to have never acknowledged their bloodline. For so many years, other than the appearance of this array formation in the books, they knew nothing about it.
However, Audrey's blood was useful.
When he and the Great Clan Elder, Pierre, learned of this news, their eyes almost fell out of their sockets.
"What is this?" Audrey asked. She could feel that there was a power inside that was summoning her.
But it should not be.
She had just arrived in this world, and the combat aura on her body was not strong enough to support her absorption of the elemental energy left behind.
Could it have something to do with her original body?
The guard looked at Houston's face and warned her in a gruff voice, "Miss Audrey, don't ask if it's not something you should know. I thought that this was something patriarch Calder should have taught you a long time ago."
Audrey completely ignored the guard's warning. She stubbornly looked at Houston and asked, "What exactly is this thing?"
"Don't you want to know about your mother's background? Don't you want to protect your father? This is a domain --"
Houston gave an ambiguous smile. "In all these years, the Davis family has never had a candidate who can enter a domain. You, a good-for-nothing, are actually the first one to do so. How ironic."

"Regardless of whether it's Calder or you, you're always so annoying." Houston twirled the ring on his finger, "But forget it. I've discussed it with elder Pierre. If you can successfully obtain the item in the domain, we'll spare your lives.
"But if you can't obtain it --"
Houston looked at Audrey, took off his ring, and threw it on the ground.
There was a crisp sound.
"I'll let you know the consequences of defying the Davis family."
Audrey's eyes widened.
Because she could feel something tightening in the depths of her heart.

Falling for a Star (Complete)
I had never paid much attention to celebrity gossip or what was going on in Hollywood because that was so far from the lifestyle I lived as a poor college student, working as a barista to save up for my own house after graduation. But then, without my knowledge, my Dad submitted my name into a talk show sweepstakes to win a week with Hollywood superstar Dylan Chase, to see what it's like to live like a celebrity for a week. My Dad thought it would be the perfect chance for me to get out of Iowa, see the world and have an adventure for once. I was dreading leaving home, flying for the first time and going by myself all the way to L.A. Plus the idea of spending a week with an arrogant, rich, snobby actor that was probably the worst kind of womanizer didn't sound like my idea of fun. What I found when I got there and met Dylan was the total opposite; a man that was humble, hard working, easy to talk to, and down to earth. Spending a week in Paradise in the guest house of Dylan Chase's Malibu mansion right on the beach, attending a movie premiere on his arm, shopping on Rodeo Drive and eating at five star restaurants was like a dream come true, but sleeping in his bed and falling for a guy from a completely different world than me was never part of the plan because we could never end up together.
