The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 371: Chapter 371: The Power of the Innate_1

The arena was dead silent, save for Carson Flores’s laughter echoing through the Martial Battle Arena, filled with endless mockery.

Zayne Shepherd’s complexion changed.

Rocky Stein’s complexion also changed.

Up until now, they had maintained a condescending attitude, looking down on Carson Flores no matter how he struggled.

But Carson Flores’s words had directly torn apart the face of the Divine Cloudy Sect, beating it down from high above before smashing its face viciously against the ground and trampling it repeatedly.

Small-minded, despicable tactics, sinister villain, ungratefulness...

Carson Flores’s statements were akin to publicly executing the Divine Cloudy Sect.

The meaningful gazes from the surrounding audience were like invisible blades, harshly slashing across the face of the Divine Cloudy Sect.

Zayne Shepherd subconsciously cried out, ”Nonsense! You’re destroying the reputation of the Divine Cloudy Sect, do you no longer wish to live?”

Carson Flores sneered, ”Otherwise, why don’t you let Nash Acedvedo, Jensen Meadows, and Josephine Harrison come out and tell us which of my words are fake?”

Zayne Shepherd subconsciously turned his head, looking toward Jensen Meadows and Josephine Harrison.

Jensen Meadows’s face flushed red, clearly embarrassed. In front of everyone, he naturally wouldn’t admit, ”Nonsense! Where have I ever drugged anyone? You’re spouting lies, framing and slandering me!”

Carson Flores sneered, ”Is that so? Then dare you swear to the heavens that if you have ever engaged in drugging others, you yourself will not die a good death, and Elder Rocky’s illness will be incurable?”

Jensen Meadows instantly felt guilty; even though he knew such oaths were false and wouldn’t really come to pass, he had indeed done such things. If he were to swear such an oath, wouldn’t that be cursing Elder Rocky to death?

Wouldn’t Elder Rocky slap him to death himself?

Jensen Meadows stammered, ”Just because you say so, do I have to swear? To curse over something unrelated, you’re too malicious.”

Carson Flores chuckled, saying nothing further.

All present were discerning; understanding the scene, they instantly knew that what Carson Flores said was true!

Jensen Meadows had indeed committed the despicable act of drugging women!

The buzz of conversation in the arena suddenly grew louder, and Zayne Shepherd’s face on the stage darkened.

Everything Carson Flores said was true!

Under the watchful eyes of all, Zayne Shepherd wished he could dig a hole and crawl inside.

So you’re the young Sect Master of the Divine Cloudy Sect, isn’t that status high enough for you? And yet you still resort to using such despicable tactics as drugging?

Josephine Harrison’s pretty face had already turned deathly pale as she subconsciously hid behind Rocky Stein.

Her bluster against Carson Flores, ”a nobody without a Sect,” was one thing, but now, faced with the disdainful and contemptuous gazes from the many Sect Families, her Divine Cloudy Sect disciple’s bravado had entirely vanished.

”You’re not even worthy of being a man!”

Carson Flores disdainfully shifted his gaze to land on Zayne Shepherd’s face and said coldly, ”Is Elder Zayne here to stand up for Nash Acedvedo and face me in another round?”

Zayne Shepherd was immediately embarrassed, afraid of being defeated if he agreed, yet too embarrassed not to.

”Insolence!”

Rocky Stein could no longer sit by and let Carson Flores continue like this, which would leave the Divine Cloudy Sect no face to speak of!

Rocky Stein suddenly stood up, his body flickered, and in an instant, he rushed toward Carson Flores like a phantom, with electrifying speed.

The crowd exclaimed, many standing up all at once.

Rocky Stein had actually made a move!

Rocky Stein was an Innate Grandmaster!

She intended to use her overwhelming strength to forcibly suppress Carson Flores, to end this dispute and put a stop to Carson Flores’s humiliation of the Divine Cloudy Sect!

Carson Flores was startled but not afraid.

Rocky Stein’s move had been within his expectations; in fact, he had been provoking and mocking the Divine Cloudy Sect to incite Rocky Stein.

Rocky Stein arrived in a blink, her palm striking out.

The palm delivered by Rocky Stein was light and casual, yet Carson Flores found it impossible to dodge.

The air around seemed to solidify, this casual strike giving the oppressive sense of blocking out the sun.

Carson Flores did not try to forcefully resist, but instead adopted a defensive stance.

”Bang!”

Gang Qi exploded, sending Carson Flores flying backward.

Carson Flores’s body hit the ground, his left hand bracing against it. Taking advantage of the momentum, he flipped back into the air, landed on his feet, and skidded backward for quite a distance before he abruptly stopped.

Carson Flores’s complexion was slightly pale, a thread of blood spilling from his mouth, yet his eyes shone brighter than ever.

”The Innate Grandmaster is indeed formidable!”

Carson Flores stood up straight, coldly saying, ”But I wonder how many more times your broken body will support your actions, once, maybe twice, or shall we try again?”

Rocky Stein’s face held an unusual flush; she stared at Carson Flores, eyes wide with shock.

Carson Flores had actually blocked her strike!

She had intended to powerfully bring Carson Flores down with one blow, and then have Zayne Shepherd capture him to stop his ridicule of the Divine Cloudy Sect, but instead, after enduring her fierce attack, Carson Flores had not fallen!

Though it was clear that Carson Flores had been injured, not only did he not cower or fear, he was instead challenging her!

Rocky Stein’s eyes flashed with increased killing intent, her figure lunged forward again, attacking Carson Flores.

”You’re courting death!”
