The True Heiress Is The Real Bigshot-Chapter 721 - 591 Lone Force Crushing! Diviner [1 Update]_2
Chapter 721: 591 Lone Force Crushing! Diviner [1 Update]_2
It was an unavoidable situation.
This time, the Golden Statuette Awards had inflicted great damage on Era Media.
The entertainment industry is a lucrative field, one which the Pazzi family would not forgo the opportunity to profit from.
Jerman stood up, with his hands behind his back, "Miss Ying, you have time to consider. Tonight, the Pazzi family will host a ball and dinner, we hope Miss Ying will attend on time."
Luke reentered, "Miss Ying, please, by the Patriarch’s orders, allow me to take you for a tour around Pazzi Castle."
"There’s no need for a tour," Ying Zijin said indifferently, "I like reading books."
Luke was taken aback and glanced at Jerman.
After a moment of thought, Jerman smiled, "Take Miss Ying to the family library. Miss Ying is an honored guest and must be well entertained, understand?"
After all, there were no secrets in the library.
A Hua Country person wouldn’t understand the real secrets, anyway.

Luke led Ying Zijin to the library.
The girl’s beauty was extraordinary, attracting much attention.
They turned their heads frequently, their gazes filled with admiration.
Luke escorted Ying Zijin into the library and then stepped out.
Upon turning, he encountered a young man.
He spoke with respect, "Young Master Riven."
Riven glanced toward the library, "Is that the Executive Director of Chuguang Media?"
The incident with the IFF Golden Statuette Awards had spread within the Pazzi family.
Diana too had rivals, who took pleasure in sharing the incident as a joke with others.
Luke nodded, "Yes, that’s her."
Riven clicked his tongue, "Well, that’s quite good."
Luke looked up in surprise, "Young Master Riven? You’re not suggesting..."
"Beautiful and capable, why wouldn’t a man like a girl like that?" Riven shrugged, his expression serious, "I think she’s much stronger than those noble ladies."
Luke’s brow furrowed.
Riven was not a son of Patriarch Pazzi, but a descendant of a Great Elder.
He was also a candidate for the next head of the family, and his strength was even above Diana’s.
If Riven became the Patriarch, Ying Zijin would not be a worthy match for him.
"I will convey Young Master Riven’s thoughts to the Patriarch," Luke replied, "There will be time for interaction at tonight’s dinner."
Riven then smiled.
Inside the library.
Ying Zijin skimmed through books rapidly.
With her formidable memory, she memorized the entire content of the book in her head.
After finishing, she put the book back and closed her eyes.
As expected.
The ancient books of the Pazzi family recorded the Alchemy world, the Ancient Martial World, and the Ancient Medical Field, and even the long-destroyed ancient civilization of Atlantis.
But there was no record of Norton’s location.
Ying Zijin pondered.
The memories she lost, and the powers she misplaced, must be related to that place.
Norton had also mentioned that it was while navigating the Atlantic, he had accidentally entered that area from a particular sea region.
There was a specific entrance, just like the Ancient Martial World, only it was closed.
Ying Zijin turned around and found another book she needed.
However, the text in this book was obscure, looking entirely like symbols.
To those who didn’t understand, it seemed like mere scribbles of circles.
Alchemy language.
Ying Zijin recognized it at a glance.
Unfortunately.
She knew a bit of the alchemy language.
She opened the book and continued reading.

On the other side of the castle.
In the meeting room, the elders were in serious discussion about the commotion on the NOK forum earlier in the day.
"Great Elder, there are plenty who take up the bounty, but less than ten percent would actually make a move," the Third Elder shook his head, "Moreover, how could he alone kill all of us?"
The other elders shared the sentiment.
The Great Elder didn’t nod or shake his head but merely asked, "Where is Lao Wu?"
"Today, Lao Wu is in charge of patrolling," the Third Elder replied, "He is outside."
The Great Elder nodded, "Devil hasn’t appeared for three years, no one knows the extent his strength has grown to, better to be cautious, activate all the Defense Systems in the castle, and for the next few days, we absolutely must not split up."
Indeed, a Great Elder alone was no match for Devil.
The other elders nodded in agreement.
Just as the meeting was about to adjourn, a disordered sound of footsteps arose.
"Great Elder, something terrible has happened!" The guard came running in, breathless and flustered, with the urgent news, "Devil! Devil has appeared!"
"The Fifth Elder couldn’t defeat him and has been killed!"
The Great Elder’s expression shifted, "What did you say? He has appeared? Now?"
It had been less than five hours since Devil accepted the bounty.
