The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 696: Chapter 696: This is a tragic scream, it’s not far yet_1

”Come!”

Delaney Hunter flicked her hand, and a handful of melon seeds shot directly towards Carson Flores.

Each melon seed was like a thrown Flying Sword, and the flight paths of the seeds were extremely tricky, some straight, some diagonal, and some arcing around, like a swarm of Flying Swords instantly enveloping Carson Flores from all directions.

The Three Provinces Sword appeared, its radiance like snow.

”Ding ding ding!”

The sound of dense collisions arose as the melon seeds struck the sword, actually making a sound like metal striking metal.

Melon seeds scattered all over the ground.

Carson Flores stood calm and composed, sheathing his sword in front of him.

Delaney Hunter, with her keen senses, noticed that Carson Flores’s strength seemed to have improved quite a bit and asked in surprise, ”Your strength has increased a lot, it seems the three months of closed-door training went well.”

Carson Flores smiled and said, ”I advanced a level, now I am at the Golden Core middle stage.”

Delaney Hunter’s eyes widened in surprise. Carson Flores had just been at the Golden Core Initial Stage when he came in, and to advance to the middle stage in three months, wasn’t that a bit too exaggerated?

Ten days to master the basic techniques of the Three-foot Sword Veil, ten days to master the second stage of training, three months from the Golden Core Initial Stage to the middle stage, was this kid some kind of monster?

”Since you have finished the second stage of training, you can start the Cultivation of Sword Bone now. Sword Bone is the true core of the Three-foot Sword Veil. After all, one can only hold a single sword in hand, but once the Sword Bone is cultivated, the entire body becomes a sword. When it is cultivated to a profound level, the Sword Intent alone is enough to grind to dust anything that attacks.”

Images of her stepping through the air without drawing her sword but shattering anything that approached flashed through Carson Flores’s mind. It seemed those branches and tendrils must have been ground to dust by the Sword Intent emanating from the Sword Bone she cultivated.

”I’ve prepared some of the resources you’ll need for your training recently. Starting from today, you’ll officially begin the Cultivation of Sword Bone. I’ll get you started by teaching you the method, and once you gather the materials you need, you’ll be able to continue the cultivation on your own.”

Carson Flores hesitated before asking, ”Isn’t it said that each section of Sword Bone requires a piece of Dark Iron Raven Essence? I inquired about it, and they say it costs three to four hundred thousand Spirit Stones per piece...”

Delaney Hunter laughed and said, ”I still have four pieces of Dark Iron Raven Essence in stock, you can use those first.”

Carson Flores immediately tried to decline, ”Senior Sister, don’t you need it as well? How can I use it...”

”If I say you can use it, you use it.”

Delaney Hunter decisively stated, ”At my current level, it’s not just Dark Iron Raven Essence that I need. Moreover, the Dark Iron Raven Essence I require now can’t be taken care of with just four pieces.”

Carson Flores asked doubtfully, ”Aren’t you supposed to refine it one bone at a time?”

”Some parts can be refined one by one, but not others.”

Delaney Hunter shook her head, explaining carefully, ”The human body has a total of 206 bones. I have successively refined all 126 bones of my limbs, 24 ribs, and all eight bones of my skull in one go. What remains are the 21 bones of the facial skull and the entire 27 bones of the spine. The facial bones and the vertebrae are all interlinked, so it’s best to refine them in two batches and complete it all at once, which requires a lot of resources, too much for just three pieces of Dark Iron Raven Essence.”

”Since I’m still far from that, it’s better to let you use it first to lay the foundation. The rest is up to you, after all, the master points the way, but the cultivation is up to the individual.”

Seeing Delaney Hunter put it that way, Carson Flores stopped refusing, but still stated, ”Then, Senior Sister, I’ll repay you once I’ve earned enough resources!”

Delaney Hunter laughed, ”You should take care of yourself first. When you make a big fortune, you can repay me then, and I definitely won’t refuse.”

Delaney Hunter glanced at her wristwatch and said briskly, ”There’s no time like the present, let’s start now... Malia, get the medicine ready.”

”Yes!”

Malia was clearly not doing this for the first time. She took a bunch of strange medicines from Delaney Hunter and left. After a while, she came back and reported, ”Peak Master, everything is ready.”

Delaney Hunter stood up and walked towards the house, ”Come with me. The sooner the pain, the sooner it’s over. After all, you have to go through it anyway.”

A shock ran through Carson Flores’s heart. Why does that sound like an early death is a swift release?

Carson Flores followed Delaney Hunter into the room. Inside, a large vat had been prepared, filled with dark, ink-like medicine, emitting billowing white vapor.

”Take off your clothes and sit in it.”

Carson Flores felt rather embarrassed; clearly, this room had been Delaney Hunter’s training space in the past, and the vat must have been used by her before. Removing his clothes here...

Delaney Hunter glanced at Carson Flores, chuckled, and turned away, ”You don’t have to strip completely naked.”

Carson Flores breathed a sigh of relief, quickly stripped down to his boxer shorts, and climbed into the vat. As soon as he got in, he let out a scream as if he had been scalded by fire.

What kind of liquid was this?

Why was it so hot?

Were they scalding a pig to remove its hair or what?

Delaney Hunter turned her head with a somewhat malicious smile on her face. ”Already screaming, huh? This is just the beginning.”
