The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 972: Chapter 972: Becoming Immortal, Is the Boss Still the Boss?

”Hiss!”

Countless people gasped in unison, their gazes unanimously falling on Carson Flores.

Previously shocked by the man’s power, they hadn’t thought much about it, but now, with Carson’s prompting, they suddenly felt it was very possible.

”Black sabre, middle-aged man...”

”Was there a powerful figure known for his black war blade ten thousand years ago?”

People looked at each other and fell into deep thought.

Suddenly, someone exclaimed in a low voice, ”The madman, Franklin Wyatt?”

”Who is that?”

”Ten thousand years ago, the exact time unknown, a genius emerged from the ancient Kahdas family, dominating the world with a black war blade, his fame widely spread. However, he vanished just as quickly, disappearing after a very short time, and everyone believed he had met an untimely death...”

Everyone was stunned. ”Over ten thousand years ago, earlier than Finlay Murphy?”

”Yes, earlier than Finlay Murphy. There are hardly any detailed records. I also only read a brief mention in an ancient book because of the black war blade.”

The guards of the Valley of Death, are they all from over ten thousand years ago?

Who tasked them with guarding this place?

Most importantly, what are they guarding?

”So, what Carson said earlier about the woman in white, could she also be someone from ten thousand years ago?”

”Should we find someone who can draw to sketch her and confirm?”

Soon, an expert at drawing stood out. Carson described the woman in white from his memories, made adjustments and modifications, and quickly, the image of the woman in white emerged.

Cold as frost, ethereal as if about to become an immortal.

”Yes, that’s exactly what she looked like. She did not reveal any magical treasures or weapons; she was unarmed. I was busy fleeing for my life. It was just a fleeting glimpse; I don’t remember much more...”

Before Carson could finish, an elderly man exclaimed, ”Isn’t this Princess Hail from the ancient Hail Family, the fated woman known as Malia Salinas? I’ve seen her portrait; it’s identical. My goodness, she still looks so young, unchanged...”

His words dropped like a bomb among the crowd.

”The ancient Hail Family?”

”Malia Salinas and Finlay Murphy were contemporaries, both appearing in the great war between the Demon Race and the Human Race over ten thousand years ago, after which they both vanished. And now she appears here!”

”This means, they are all over ten thousand years old. How are they still alive?”

”What realm are they in now, Hollow Void, Tribulation Crossing, or perhaps immortals?”

Listening to everyone’s discussion, Carson was also greatly shocked.

The heavenly gifted ones from ten thousand years ago became guardians of a desperate land. What were they guarding?

What is so valuable that such people would guard it for ten thousand years?

And who tasked them with this guard duty?

Immortal?

Unless it’s an immortal, perhaps no one else could have such capability.

Carson felt his emotions surge, vaguely perceiving a gigantic secret spanning ten thousand years right before his eyes.

Soon, manysect leaders who had been pursuing Finlay Murphy were informed and returned to gather. After a secret discussion, they finally decided that all present sects would gather their forces and, in three days, march into the Valley of Death!

”Can we prevail?”

Carson asked worriedly, ”A dozen Hollow Void Realm leaders joined forces and couldn’t defeat a single madman like Franklin Wyatt, even losing several among them. If we send another batch of people, they too are only in the Hollow Void Realm...”

Kash Lam spoke softly, ”People from ten thousand years ago appearing right before our eyes, not just one but several, how could they resist? Not to mention those whose time is up...”

”I heard, this time, everyone has put in a great deal of resources, determined to succeed. Kahdas brought their Cave Heaven’s Treasure, the Destiny Gourd, Luofu Mountain brought their Cave Heaven’s Treasure, the Four Symbols Tower, Xixuan Mountain brought their Cave Heaven’s Treasure, the Thirteen Blood Banners...”

”These are all Spiritual Treasures, incredibly powerful, usually hidden away, not shown in public. Now, they’ve taken them all out. With so many from the Great Perfection of Hollow Void and all these Spiritual Treasures, there certainly shouldn’t be a problem.”

”Even, I heard that the team includes several from the Great Perfection of Hollow Void whose time is up...”

Curiously, Carson asked, ”Time is up, what does that mean?”

Lainey Dragon explained, ”Time is up means their life is nearly over, almost about to die. So, they have nothing to fear, and if really necessary, they will step into the Tribulation Crossing Stage, staking their lives for one final battle.”

Carson suddenly realized, ”Burning their last three months of life for one final strike?

”Yes.”

Kash Lam spoke softly, ”That’s why, this time, all sects are exhausting their strength. The Valley of Death must be secured. If we can’t even take the Valley of Death, how can we speak of rebuilding the pathway to the two realms, achieving Ascension to Immortality?”

Carson’s thoughts also fluctuated, feeling a sigh of emotion, ”For the sake of ascending to immortality, everyone is indeed desperate. I wonder if the Immortal Realm is worth such sacrifices. Once inside the Immortal Realm, a leader will no longer be a leader. I wonder if these leaders will still have the same state of mind...”
