Celeste Grant was stunned.
"No way! Could it be someone from Nine-Family Village? No, no..." She shook her head and said, "Definitely not." Then, a thought struck her, and she blurted out, "It couldn't be Jocelyn Grant, could it?"
'A Golden Core... and a familiar aura? I can't think of anyone else.'
According to the original plot of the book, Jocelyn Grant wasn't supposed to show up here. And if Nine-Family Village had a Golden Core Cultivator, the hundreds of villagers wouldn't have been sacrificed and died a tragic death in the book.
After Celeste Grant transmigrated into the book, she changed the plot's trajectory. Most of the female lead's fated men were already dead. Now, aside from the plot's general direction, the story had completely gone off the rails. So, she wouldn't be surprised even if Jocelyn Grant showed up here.
'How many of her men have died again?'
Celeste Grant counted on her fingers.
