Chapter 490 The End
The entire Divination Academy began to collapse.
Elizabeth suddenly rushed to the window, opened it, and jumped out.
After becoming a high-level diviner, the height of several hundred feet was not dangerous for her.
Seeing this, Bradley couldn't hold back either and turned to leap out of the window.
As soon as they landed, the Divination Academy collapsed.
Then, a several dozen-foot-long, bright red, transparent-winged Aether Serpent emerged from the ground beneath the academy.
Standing on its back was none other than Zachary.
Bradley saw the Aether Serpent and Zachary and could no longer remain calm. "How could you come out unscathed?"
He immediately tried to use the leader's token to summon the evil sorcery pit fissure, but there was no response.
His face changed dramatically again, "No, that's impossible."
Zachary stood on the Aether Serpent, looking coldly at Bradley, "What's impossible?"
"I was just a step away from the peak of a high-level diviner, and after merging with Aevum City, I advanced even further."
"Then I traveled around, and my mind became clear."
"Today, while I was away, the evil sorcery pit fissure suddenly reappeared. I thought about not getting caught by you and how to expose your true nature, so I let it swallow me."
"As I expected, it pulled me to the true source of the evil sorcery pit fissure."
"After experiencing life and death, I fully understood and reached the peak of a high-level diviner."
"But this evil sorcery pit fissure is my nemesis. Although it can no longer completely devour my soul, it can trap me and prevent me from getting out."
"So I sought help from Elizabeth. Her Aether Serpent just happened to be immune to the evil sorcery pit fissure."
"With me suppressing the evil sorcery pit, it could roam freely and then bring me out."
"I also used a special method to seal the core of the evil sorcery pit fissure, so it won't help you anymore."
Since Elizabeth discovered that Bradley was Xavier's biological father, they had started preparing.
Bradley could set up a plan, and so could they.
Sure enough, everything was within Elizabeth's expectations.
Bradley's face changed again and again. He gritted his teeth and said, "I really underestimated you."
Elizabeth laughed, "Underestimating your enemies can be fatal."
Bradley sneered, "Do you really think you can deal with me?"
"If I didn't have a backup plan, I wouldn't have let you come." He then took out a golden glass ball from his pocket.
Inside, many thread-like golden strands floated.
He injected energy into it, and the glass ball suddenly emitted beams of golden light, spreading in all directions.
"My Mystic Divination Academy has been open for over two hundred years, not for nothing."
"Aren't you so concerned about those ordinary people's lives?"
"Today, I'll sacrifice them to take your lives."
If he didn't have a backup plan, he wouldn't have tried to swallow Zachary at every opportunity.
Elizabeth pretended to be scared, "Oh no, we're so afraid!"
Zachary looked at Bradley with a mocking expression.
Bradley sensed something was wrong with their expressions, and his sense of panic grew stronger.
Then he realized that his spell was being blocked by a force just a few feet away.
He couldn't believe it, "This, this is impossible!"
At that moment, Alaric and Percy walked up from the stairs.
Alaric spoke, "Why is it impossible?"
Bradley looked at them and saw that they were holding a machine.
The machine had several antenna-like things on it.
He realized that these things were emitting a force that disrupted the magnetic field, interfering with his spell.
He immediately walked to the edge of the mountain and looked down.
He saw a thick layer of fog below, blocking the view up and down.
He also sensed that the people he intended to sacrifice were still alive and well.
His face turned dark, "I fell into your trap."
He looked at Elizabeth, "It's all you, isn't it?"
He knew Elizabeth was now some kind of technical consultant for a special department.
She specialized in combining sorcery with high-tech gadgets.
These things that countered him were definitely related to Elizabeth.
Elizabeth nodded, "Yes."
Bradley regretted again that he should have killed Elizabeth earlier.
Blood trickled from the corner of his mouth, purely from anger.
After living for so many years, he was defeated by the twenty-something Elizabeth.
His proud plan was broken by Elizabeth, who then set a trap for him.
He was unwilling, resentful.
Bradley was collapsing, wanting to kill more people.
So he tried to summon the surrounding evil energy to kill, but failed again.
The magnetic interference was too strong, and the evil energy was shredded as soon as it was summoned.
He tried several other methods, but none worked.
Suddenly, he lunged at Elizabeth.
Unable to summon evil energy or use spells, he decided to rely on his years of combat training to kill Elizabeth.
But before he could get close, Zachary blocked him.
After a dozen rounds, Bradley was subdued by Zachary.
Elizabeth added, "You have to admit, you're old now."
This made Bradley so angry that he spat out a mouthful of blood.
Then Bradley and his students were taken away by people from the special department.
Elizabeth and Zachary stayed behind and called in masters from the Divination Association to continuously chant a purification spell near the Divination Academy.
The evil sorcery pit fissure below was still a significant risk even if sealed.
Only by purifying it could it be made safe.
With Elizabeth and others purifying above, the small Aether Serpent continuously absorbed below.
After forty-nine days, the last trace of evil energy in the sorcery pit disappeared.
A few months later, Brenda secretly returned from abroad.
She then went to Loren's place to find him.
As soon as they met, she tightly hugged Loren and kept seducing him.
Her intentions were clear; she wanted to be with him.
Brenda was confident in the venomous insect.
As long as Loren slept with her, she could use the venomous insect to control and influence him.
Now, Loren and Elise were not only married but also had a son.
Brenda returned, intending to use the venomous insect to make Loren unable to leave her.
Then he would divorce Elise and have her take the child away.
This way, she could completely defeat Elise as the victor.
Loren, who had only half the venomous insect removed, felt a natural desire for Brenda.
Elizabeth had previously given him a spell scroll, which he immediately grasped.
Although he still had the urge to sleep with Brenda, he managed to resist it.
This greatly frustrated Brenda.
At that moment, Elise happened to come home.
Seeing Brenda hugging Loren, she was instantly furious.
She rushed up, grabbed Brenda's hair, and dragged her away.
Just like last time, she pinned Brenda to the ground and started hitting her.
Brenda hated Elise intensely and realized the venomous insect wasn't working.
She was driven to the brink by Elise's beating, pulled out a knife strapped to her calf, and stabbed Elise.
During her time in Valoria, Brenda had been bullied by many people.
So she started carrying a knife, using it to injure anyone who bullied her.
This had become her recent habit, and she forgot to remove the knife when she came to see Loren.
By the time Loren reacted and tried to grab Brenda's knife, Elise was already lying in a pool of blood.
Brenda, in a frenzy, broke free from Loren and stabbed him several times as well.
By the time security arrived, Loren was also lying in a pool of blood.
Loren and Elise were both rushed to the hospital.
Elise couldn't be saved and died, while Loren was severely injured.
Two of the stab wounds were to his kidneys, which would affect his sexual function in the future.
Brenda was imprisoned by the special department for attempted murder and poisoning Loren with the venomous insect.
She was sentenced to death, to be executed in a month.
This outcome surprised Elizabeth.
She hadn't expected Brenda to be so ruthless, directly trying to kill both of them.
Elizabeth, as promised, removed the remaining half of the venomous insect from Loren.
But his future was bleak, as he might suffer from sexual dysfunction.
Moreover, Elise's parents were deeply traumatized by her death.
They not only terminated their cooperation with the Clark Group but also fought against them at all costs.
Although the Sinclair Family didn't benefit, the Clark Group suffered a severe blow.
Because of Loren, the group's executives and shareholders unanimously decided to fire him.
After this incident, Loren lost his career.
The Sinclair Family also fought for custody of his son, leaving him unable to take his son abroad. He spent the rest of his life in despair.
In prison, Brenda encountered Amy, Piper, Bradley, and Xavier.
Ethan was already dead.
She was tormented by the four of them, who blamed her for not suppressing Elizabeth, leading to their downfall.
Brenda's appearance deteriorated due to the venomous insect's backlash and previous aftereffects, causing her to age rapidly and driving her to madness.
Her relatives also tried various ways to torment her, making her life miserable.
She harbored the most hatred for Elizabeth and, encouraged by Bradley, requested to see Elizabeth one last time.
She planned to drag Elizabeth down with her in death.
But Elizabeth refused to see her, only sending a message. "You can only blame yourself for the bad things you've done and the mistakes you've made."
A month later, Brenda was executed in a state of hatred, fear, and despair.
Upon hearing the news, Betty was so happy that she spent money on fireworks to celebrate for an entire night.
But she didn't fare well either.
Her sons didn't care about her and didn't listen to her.
Her family disowned her, and the Thaddeus family, who were once close, even started to leech off her.
Betty's assets were mostly taken by the Thaddeus family, and she was eventually forced into a nursing home to escape them.
Betty spent the rest of her life in the nursing home.
Her four other sons didn't do well in their careers and lived mediocre lives relying on Paul.
None of them married or had children.
Meanwhile, Elizabeth's career flourished.
She starred in many hit movies and shows, becoming the most popular actress.
She won numerous domestic and international awards, making Kevin feel inferior.
After retiring from acting, Elizabeth directed her own films, winning many awards and making Enrique envious to the point of tears.
The only song she composed was loved by many, making Arnold cry with envy.
Her studio grew into a publicly traded company, replacing Clark Entertainment and becoming one of the top three talent agencies in the entertainment industry.
This left Loren, who was far away abroad, with mixed feelings.
After removing the venomous insect from Loren, Elizabeth never contacted anyone from the Clark Family again.
She refused all their attempts to reach out to her.
Elizabeth never forgave anyone from the Clark Family and lived a very happy and fulfilling life for the rest of her days.
