The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 1162: Chapter 1162: The Person with the Richest Harvest

Releasing the Absolute Ice Seal wasn’t complicated, as the Spectral Elemental Fire, once released, attached itself to the Profound Ice and burned silently.

The Profound Ice, hard enough that even divine weapons couldn’t break through it, quickly melted under the burn of the Spectral Elemental Fire, turning into wisps of vapor that floated in the air.

The Profound Ice sealing Erik Jackson was thick. Kash Lam took three days of continuous release of the Spectral Elemental Fire to completely melt the thick Profound Ice.

Erik Jackson’s body appeared from the ice, his hair white, his body so thin that it resembled a skeleton, his aged eyes dim and lifeless, his whole being extremely weak as though he could expire at any moment.

Erik Jackson fed himself an elixir, which slightly improved his complexion, but he still looked weak and sickly.

”Senior, what are your plans now?”

Erik Jackson, sitting against the wall, asked in a deep voice, ”What is the current situation in the outside world?”

Carson Flores looked at Kash Lam, who, as a native of the Barbarian Wilderness Realm, certainly knew more about its history.

Kash Lam already knew of Erik Jackson’s identity. Strictly speaking, the Lam Family is also a clan that dispersed from the Ancient Eight Great Families. Thus, he was also very familiar with the history of the Jackson Family.

Kash Lam respectfully answered, ”Let me start from the era of the senior...”

This explanation lasted quite a while.

Erik Jackson narrowed his eyes slightly, his expression calm, but the age in his eyes was visibly clear.

Carson Flores listened with great interest. Though he had heard of the Eight Ancient Clans, he was unclear about their historical changes. Now, listening to the account, it was like catching up on history.

The Eight Ancient Clans, as the peak power of the Central Divine Continent and even the entire Human Race, played a key role in the Human and Demon Races’ war. After the collapse of the Human Race, the Eight Ancient Clans were almost completely destroyed, but they were not wiped out.

The Demon Race, fearing the resurgence of the Eight Great Families, relentlessly pursued them, preferring to kill mistakenly than to let anyone go. Over the long years of persecution, some families were completely annihilated, while others were forced to change their surnames and branches.

Over tens of thousands of years, the remnants of the Eight Ancient Clans split into many smaller families, many of which were gradually destroyed in the annals of history, with very few surviving.

Regardless, the Eight Ancient Clans had become a legend of ancient times, making it nearly impossible to find anyone with ancient family surnames, unless they were special cases like Finlay Murphy or Princess Hail...

After hearing the story, Erik Jackson sighed, ”Time is ruthless; ultimately, no one can resist the erosion of time...”

Carson Flores asked, ”Senior, what are your plans now?”

Erik Jackson sighed, ”I’m an old man on the brink of death; I won’t live many more years. I’ll just find a place to lie down and wait for death. Regardless, I have to thank you. Like you said, I can die peacefully in bed rather than in this cold Profound Ice...”

Carson Flores smiled and said, ”If senior has no arrangements, you could come with me to Nutwood Mountain and find a peaceful place to live.”

Erik Jackson looked at Carson Flores and smiled, ”I’m an old man whose lamp is nearly out, not long left to live, certainly can’t help you much.”

Carson Flores laughed heartily, ”Senior, you taught me the Cultivation Technique. I naturally want to repay you. Inviting you to retire at Nutwood Mountain isn’t because I need your help. If that were the case, why would I have bothered to come back and save you? After all, you’ve already passed on the Jackson Family’s Great Secret Technique to me, haven’t you?”

Kash Lam’s eyes widened in shock.

The Jackson Family’s Great Secret Technique, the Berserk Art that could increase combat power tenfold?

Erik Jackson had already passed it to Carson Flores?

It must have been on the day they attacked the Valley of Death.

Kash Lam felt a complex emotion. With so many sects and powerful figures coming together to attack the Valley of Death, so many had died. They only understood that immortals truly existed and saw the suppressed arm of an immortal but gained nothing else. But Carson Flores, on his own, had fortuitous encounters one after another, with rich rewards.

First, he was ambushed, comprehended the Death Imprint while pursued by undead, and by chance entered through a secluded path, happened upon an elder from the Jackson Family, and was imparted with the ancient Great Secret Technique, the Berserk Art.

He was the one who gained the most.

Kash Lam did not feel jealous. He was simply amazed, true to the person recognized by the Emperor Seal, who could compare with such destiny?

Carson Flores, already possessed the Murphy Family’s Great Secret Technique, Ground Shrinking Technique, and now also mastered the Jackson Family’s Great Secret Technique, Berserk Art. So young, yet already wielding such terrifying combat power.

A true Son of Destiny.

Kash Lam didn’t yet know that the arm that flew away that day had followed Carson Flores, otherwise, his shock would be unimaginable.

Such events would make anyone envious, not just Kash Lam.

Erik Jackson gazed into Carson Flores’s eyes as if trying to see through his heart.

Carson Flores faced him with a smile, his eyes clear and calm.

This was, after all, his heartfelt truth.

Why fear scrutiny?
