The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 791: Chapter 791: This Magical Treasure is Awesome!_1

”Thank you, Master!”

Carson Flores reached out to catch the clothes, his heart full of pleasant surprise.

He had passed.

From now on, he was truly Daxton Campbell’s direct disciple.

Heh, the Master was sort of tough outside but soft inside.

When they first met, Daxton Campbell harshly criticized Wilson Weiss’s rigidity, and Carson had seen through it—Daxton actually admired Wilson.

To choose death with such generosity was something Daxton wouldn’t, and couldn’t, do.

Therefore, although he could denounce Wilson’s actions as foolish, he had no choice but to admire him.

It was obviously out of consideration for Wilson’s face that Daxton took such good care of him, yet he tested Carson with his words, pushing him to see if he would speak ill of Wilson for personal gain.

If he really had badmouthed Wilson, he would have been truly sentenced to death in Daxton’s eyes.

Whether his words offended Daxton, Carson felt that Daxton didn’t really care; in fact, he might even prefer Carson’s more tactful personality.

Daxton Campbell kept a stern face, ”Cut the chatter. Get your strength up quickly, don’t go out there and get beat into running for cover. That would be a disgrace to me.”

Suddenly, Carson asked, ”If that Innate Taoist Body of Kahdas, who wants to kill me, tried to do so, would you, Master, protect me?”

Delaney Hunter, who had been smiling as she watched the conversation between Carson and Daxton, had a sudden change of expression and abruptly turned her head.

Daxton Campbell frowned, ”Mount Kahdas, Bryant James?”

Carson nodded, ”Yes.”

Daxton’s gaze was piercing, as if trying to see into Carson’s heart, ”Why would he want to kill you?”

With a slightly awkward smile, Carson explained, ”He likes Adelaide Bautista, Adelaide likes my dad, and Adelaide is quite nice to me. Plus, I beat up his cousin... so I reckon he doesn’t have a good impression of me. From what I’ve inquired, he doesn’t seem to have a generous character either.”

Daxton’s face held a peculiar expression as he curled his lip, seemingly on the verge of saying something but then deciding not to.

He lifted a finger, and countless points of light converged at his fingertip. A purple shadow burst from his body and merged with these lights, instantly transforming into a miniature figure resembling Daxton. With a flick of his finger, the shadow disappeared into Carson’s head.

”I have no interest in getting involved in your romantic entanglements or being your nanny. You need to fight for your own life. However, since you’ve called me Master, I’ll leave a Primordial Spirit Shadow in your brain. If you die, this shadow will reveal to me the scene of your murder. Unless the killer is old freaks like the Mount Kahdas Cave Master, I will make sure they accompany you in death, even if they have an Innate Taoist Body, a Child of Kahdas.”

Carson bowed deeply, ”Thank you, Master!”

With Daxton’s Primordial Spirit Shadow in his head, he had acquired an extra life-saving charm unless the opponent completely concealed their identity and feared being seen.

Daxton waved his hand dismissively, ”Cultivators strive against heaven, and every major power has fought their way up through countless life-and-death crises. Whether you succeed or not depends on your own efforts and also on fate. Go now.”

”Understood!”

Carson fully agreed with Daxton’s words; ultimately, a Cultivator must rely on themselves.

He wasn’t born with an Innate Taoist Body, capable of supporting a Sect’s future for thousands of years. Why should he be overly protected?

Having received this Primordial Spirit Shadow and a promise was already good enough.

The two left Pure Sky Mountain and returned to Flying Waterfall Mountain Peak.

Carson took out the clothing that shimmered with purple lights. It was a robe, ornate and impressive—one look and it appeared out of the ordinary.

”Senior Sister, what magical treasure is this?”

Delaney laughed, ”This is one of Master’s treasured possessions, the Purple Haze Robe. It can ward off blades and spears, is impervious to water and fire, and remains unscathed when struck by magical treasures. Wearing this robe, attacks from Nascent Soul Stage treasures are almost ineffective, and those from Divinity Transformation Stage attacks will be greatly weakened. Even now that you are in the Golden Core Realm, you can withstand them.”

Carson’s eyes widened, utterly shocked.

Nascent Soul Stage attacks are ineffective?

It can defend against attacks from Divinity Transformation Stage powerhouses?

This magical treasure is too incredible!

Delaney spoke with a grin, ”Master may sound dismissive, but he actually cares a lot about you. Although you have just entered the Sect and can’t talk much about feelings, since he has acknowledged you as his disciple, he won’t let you be bullied. With the Water-Fire Mirror as your attacking treasure and paired with this Purple Haze Robe, you can even take on Nascent Soul Stage cultivators with ease. Even if you can’t kill them, they won’t be able to kill you.”

”If you encounter someone at the Divinity Transformation Stage, just run. Also, remember not to let any treasure hit your head. The Purple Haze Robe has astonishing defense, but it’s meant for personal protection and won’t emit a spiritual energy shield to protect your whole body, so you need to keep your head safe.”

Carson chuckled softly, ”Master acts tough but has a soft heart, I understand that.”

Delaney smiled, then became serious as she looked at Carson, ”Master won’t interfere with your conflict with Bryant James, but as your senior sister, I will. Tell me, what exactly happened between you two? With your personality, unless there was a major conflict, you would never have brought this up on your own...”
