The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 1145: Chapter 1145: Giving Them Rest is the Best Respect

When Kash Lam stepped out of the tent, the Lam Family members guarding outside all widened their eyes in shock.

Kash Lam had almost been torn apart earlier, and they had exhausted every method to barely save his life, yet Carson Flores had healed him completely in just a short while!

Such healing skills were too incredible!

Truly worthy of the Human Emperor!

For their own child to befriend the Human Emperor and to be able to fight side by side with him was great news for the Lam Family!

With troubled times on the horizon, to follow the Human Emperor and become one of his staunch supporters, wouldn’t the Lam Family also be able to establish unparalleled merit when peace is restored?

After handling the thanks from Jayson Lam and the others, Carson Flores looked off into the distance and saw several flying boats still hovering far away.

”Who are they?”

Kash Lam answered, ”Competitors, we’ve been chasing them for a long time without success, and now the news has leaked.”

Kash Lam pointed to the flying boats in the distance and named them one by one: ”The one at the very front is the Sky Serpent Palace, followed by Youyan Pavilion, Hundred Flowers Sect, and there’s another flying boat; everyone aboard wears masks, secretive and mysterious, but they all look fierce and malevolent, not like good people...”

Youyan Pavilion?

Carson Flores’s expression was slightly surprised. Previously, while finding the fragments of the Water-Fire Mirror in the Flame Glacier and repairing the Water-Fire Mirror, a few Sects from the Central Divine Continent Alliance became greedy and sought to double-cross him. Among them was Elder Demetrius Hester from Youyan Pavilion, who made a move against him and was killed by him using the Blood Mist.

Unexpectedly, he encountered Youyan Pavilion again here.

Demetrius Hester had caused him trouble, and his killing of Hester could be considered settling the karma, as long as they did not trouble him, Carson Flores naturally would not go out of his way to provoke them.

Carson Flores followed Kash Lam into the valley of no return and saw the densely packed graveyard within.

Gravestones stood like a forest, the graveyard stretched on, extending towards the horizon into the unseen end.

Carson Flores, looking at the endless group of gravestones, was quite shocked—how many people had to be buried for there to be so many gravestones?

Ten thousand, or a million?

”Why are there so many graves here?”

Kash Lam replied, ”This is the site of a major battle between the Human Race and the Demon Race ten thousand years ago. At that time, the Demon Race had swept through most of the Central Divine Continent, unstoppable, and the Human Race gathered all their forces to establish a defensive line here to block the invasion of the Demon Race.”

”This defensive line held for two years. In those two years, Human Cultivators went to their deaths one after the other, countless in number, but in the end, it couldn’t be held, the line was breached, and then a total collapse ensued, and the entire Central Divine Continent fell into the hands of the Demon Race.”

”The core force fighting here at that time was the Eight Ancient Clans. Sadly, after this defeat, the Eight Great Families were almost entirely crippled, and the Demon Race went even further by killing and hunting down the people of the Eight Great Families, seeking to completely eradicate them.”

Kash Lam, pointing at the forest of gravestones with a rare solemn tone, said, ”Lying here are the warriors who defended this line for two years and fought and bled for the Human Race...”

The curious Carson Flores asked, ”That battle was ten thousand years ago; haven’t the bodies decayed inside?”

Kash Lam replied, ”After the resurrection incident, they excavated a number of tombs to inspect, discovering that the bodies of those with lower strength had long since decayed, even turning to fossils, yet the bodies of those with strength at or beyond Hollow Void level remained peculiarly preserved.”

”Everyone believes that the resurrection of the bodies is due to the Spectral Elemental Fire, after all, everyone saw the Spectral Elemental Fire enter the tombs, then the tombs exploded, and the old man was resurrected.”

”I’ve heard rumors that they’re prepared to stop at nothing to acquire the Spectral Elemental Fire and then try to use it to control the bodies here.”

Carson Flores was taken aback: ”To turn these undecayed Hollow Void Realm Cultivator corpses into their tools of war?”

”Yes!”

Kash Lam angrily said, ”These people have lost even their consciences for the sake of power. The ones lying here are the brave warriors who sacrificed themselves for the Human Race, and to let them truly rest in peace is the best way to honor them, yet those people are thinking of how to awaken them and enslave them to fight for themselves, it’s utterly inhuman!”

Pausing, Kash Lam turned to him, ”Carson Flores, there are too many competitors, although I am a Fire Spirit Body, the chances of grabbing the Spectral Elemental Fire are slim. When the Spectral Elemental Fire appears again, use whatever means you have to seize it and thwart their plans.”

Carson Flores, looking sideways at the indignant Kash Lam, gave a slight smile, ”Alright!”

Carson Flores and Kash Lam attracted the attention of the crowd on the distant flying boats. Someone cast the Water Mirror Technique to close the distance and get a clear look at Carson Flores.

On Youyan Pavilion’s flying boat, someone suddenly cried out in shock.

”Isn’t that Carson Flores... the Human Emperor?”

”How did he get here?”

”His relationship with the Fire Spirit Body from the Lam Family seems pretty good; he must be a helper brought by the Fire Spirit Body!”

”It was him who killed Elder Demetrius. Inform the Sect Master at once!”

Soon, a beautiful-looking middle-aged woman with rather sinister eyes came to the prow of the boat. Upon seeing Carson Flores in the Water Mirror Technique, she raised her eyes, which flowed with a menacing aura.

”Call the people from Sky Serpent Palace and Hundred Flowers Sect, let’s go find him together! He killed our Youyan Pavilion elder and just walked away. Even if he is the Human Emperor, it’s too much; he must give us an explanation!”
