<h4>Chapter 488 Past Life Memories Belong to Someone Else</h4>


    ALLIANCE HQ, Italy


    Inside a white room, Liam is seated in a lounge chair. Lady Isabe took a seat in front of him and gazed with intent, which he could not avert his eyes and look away.


    "Are you ready, Liam?" Lady Isabe asked him.


    "I am…" Looking into thedy''s mystical eyes, Liam nodded his head and watched her stand up and walk around him. cing her right hand on his shoulder, Liam closed his eyes after thedy whispered a chant in his right ear.


    Lady Isabe returned to her chair and took off her red gloves, preparing herself to dive inside Liam''s inner mind. After ensuring that he was in his deep slumber, she held his hands and closed her eyes.


    In the room''s corner, Shun and Derek are waiting patiently. asionally, Derek nced at the monitoring screen that would show Liam''s vitals and record how deep his dream was.


    The two men had anticipation in their hearts as both desired to end this game soon. It had been five years since they patiently waited for the perfect time toe, so they must not dy any longer.


    After half an hour, Lady Isabe returned to the present time, but Liam remained sleeping.


    Derek saved all the data he had gathered and joined his mother and Shun in the private lounge to discuss what she saw in Liam''s memories.


    Inside the lounge room, Lady Isabe sipped on her teacup. The unique aroma of the tea soothes her nostrils that brings tranquility to her tense nerves.


    Her strength isn''t what it used to be. She almost lost her way out because that man ced a special seal on which she had difficulty opening the door.


    "What did you find, Mama?" Derek could no longer wait for his mother to begin.


    Isabe raised her gaze and smiled at Derek. She understood his impatience. They worked hard to solve Hailee''s problem: they could not take a vacation and have all the fun they wanted.


    Those elders thought that the highest seats had the most beautiful view. Little did the elders know that only a small group of people were giving everything they had to maintain the order of this world.


    Aside from Shun, Levi, Nichs, and her son Derek, Madison, Cassandra, and she is throwing their lives and happiness away to stop that man from destroying this world. Fortunately, some good shamans guided them.


    "Have they arrived safely?" Lady Isabe asked Shun instead of replying to Derek. She just wanted to tease her son. Take a breath and calm down.


    "Mama…" He groaned, but he could not actuallyin, so he dismissed the thought.


    Shun calmly picked up his cup of coffee and stared at the hot, ck liquid. "Their ne had justnded. They are on their way."


    "That''s good. We can perform the reversal ceremonyter, at midnight."


    "Reversal Ceremony? Is it a ritual to…" Derek fell into deep thoughts.


    "I already have my suspicions, and I am correct," Isabe exined. "That man awakens a past life memory inside Liam''s mind. However, these memories don''t belong to Liam, but someone else."


    "Then, the owner is?" Derek held his breath as he mused. ''What a phenomenal event once more.''


    Isabe looked at Shun and Derek back and forth before she went on. She revealed,


    "They are past life memories that belong to Vincent."


    Shun and Derek look at each other withplex feelings. It made them understand why Liam was crazily chasing Hailee even at the end of the world.


    "That''s why I need the shaman''s help to correct it and show Liam the way back. I can''t do this myself." Lady Isabe added.


    "Your immortality is wearing out, Mama."


    Lady Isabe nodded. She ced her teacup and then picked up the tablet on the coffee table. Browsing the gadget, she opens a folder in her files. After she found what she was looking for, she began reading the content.


    "As the new ruler, Emperor Xing Shen established many newws. Before bing the new Emperor, crowned prince Xing Shen was a great warrior who fought hundreds of battles. Traveling across thend, the crowned prince saw how many imperial governors and ministers abused their power. This made the crowned prince form a loyal Army of Fifteen. Led by General Zhang Jiang, they investigate many states, even small cities, and the ugly truth and inhuman act displeases the crowned prince."


    "So then, after he inherited the throne, he wrote many decrees to punish all the corrupt ministers and governors. Aprehensive reformation was implemented throughout thend. The new emperor executes a thousand criminals. These acts actually prosper the trading industry in the neighboring countries and form a good rtionship."


    Lady Isabe went on, "However, those officials who are suppressed in abusing their power by collecting too much tax and stealing farms to multiply the source of their wealth, they supported the criminals who want to avenge their brothers whom the emperor executed."


    "And the family who opposed the new decree the most is the Wu Kingdom. It was the Wu prince who led the assassination of the Imperial family. General Zhang Jiang not only carried the decree throughout thend. He also investigated and gathered information from all families that opposed the emperor. That''s why General Zhang has be a famous figure in history. His sword killed thousands of criminals, including all noble families who oppressed the emperor''s people."


    "However, the goodness of both Emperor Xing Shen and General Zhang Jiang is not enough…."


    "Well, even how much the emperor has a heart of gold…." Shun intercepts Isabe''s story. "There are people who would never be satisfied."


    "And we are talking about Vincent here, right?" Derek rified.


    "Yes. Emperor Xing Shen was known as a good emperor for executing criminals in the ancient records. However, he is a thorn in their path for criminals and corrupt officials and hinders their ambition of more power." Isabe continued. "Also, we should not forget the great Lady Zhang Ming."


    "Even in her past life, Hailee has been a person who has a heart of gold," Shunmented.


    "She is…" Isabe concurred. Then, she said, "When the Emperor chose General Jiang''s sister to be his queen, the people were delighted because Lady Ming was a warm person. But it didn''t make the ministers happy because the Emperor abandoned his concubines and only set his eyes on Lady Ming to carry his children. In fact, isn''t the story familiar to our present time?"


    Shun and Derek agreed. Vincent is also deliberate to be arranged with someone else, but he only wants to marry Hailee.


    "There are events in the past that are repeating at present," is Lady Isabe''s subtle phrase.


    "Shun! Derek!"


    All of a sudden, someone pushes the door open abruptly without knocking.


    Daichi barged in, and it surprised the three people who had a serious discussion; now, their faces were written with wonder when the guy had an anxious expression on his face.


    "What happened, Daichi?" asked Shun, worried if something had happened to the shamans. Shun wondered if that man learned that Liam had confessed, and he made a move.


    "Shun, they need Derek in Australia! Hailee is in critical condition after she had forcedbor!"


    The three of them were shocked.


    "Hailee had forcedbor? Why does she have to?" Lady Isabe had a pang in her heart thinking about the babies'' condition. On the one hand, she had a bad premonition. ''What did she do?''


    Meanwhile, Derek sprang from the couch and rushed to the door. He could no longer wait for Daichi''s further report as he needed to leave Italy as soon as possible.


    Left behind, Shun contacted Madison, and he heard her sobs while exining. After he hung up the call, Daichi continued with his reports.


    "Ben and Matt are on their way to T Country. Pitt got a second-degree burn and is in aa..."


    "What!? How about Vincent?"


    Shun stared at Daichi with intent, and it scared him out of his wits which caused him to stutter while answering his boss'' queries.


    "They… they didn''t find his body yet…."
