The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 1296: Chapter 1296: If it’s yours, you can’t escape it!

Hey, beauty!

Carson Flores felt a thump in his heart, but on the surface, he feigned a look of surprise: ”A beautiful girl? Could it be someone he found for himself?”

Ellis Baker snorted: ”Impossible. He can fool around outside all he likes, but he absolutely wouldn’t dare bring a woman back here. A Celestial Envoy is merely an Immortal’s servant and certainly wouldn’t dare to defy the rules of this place.”

Carson Flores pretended to be puzzled and asked further: ”I heard from the outside that only with a Mystical Immortal Token can one enter Mystical Immortal Island. If he can bring someone back directly, what’s the purpose?”

”Maybe he thought the other party has an immortal-related destiny.”

Ellis Baker took a sip of wine, his voice still tinged with barely concealed resentment: ”No matter what, it must be the Immortal’s command. Otherwise, even with eight times his courage, he wouldn’t dare to bring a woman back here.”

Carson Flores breathed a sigh of relief. During this time, it would be impossible to say he hadn’t let his mind run wild.

That’s his wife, after all. It’d be strange if he wasn’t worried!

Having confirmed that Shirley Miller was here, Carson Flores began to ponder the whole incident from beginning to end.

Tyson Tate intended to kill Shirley Miller, but was stopped by Kobe Tate, who declared that the island needed such a young and highly talented young Cultivator.

Thinking about it from another angle, Kobe Tate had actually saved Shirley Miller’s life. Otherwise, Shirley Miller would probably have already died at the hands of Tyson Tate, gone like a wisp of smoke.

Shirley Miller has an immortal-related destiny?

Carson Flores always felt the immortal-related destiny they spoke of didn’t sound quite proper. If there really was such a destiny, would one need to capture someone to acquire it?

”Celestial Envoys don’t live in the village?”

Ellis Baker shook his head: ”The Immortals live in the caves behind the mountain. Celestial Envoys are all there attending to them.”

Carson Flores asked: ”The beautiful woman who was captured, was she also taken to the mountains?”

”Mm-hmm.”

Carson Flores put on a jealous tone: ”Seems like she really does have an immortal-related destiny. Right after coming here, she goes straight to meet the Immortal, and she was actively chosen. I’ve worked so hard to get a Mystical Immortal Token and still don’t know when I’ll have such an opportunity...”

Ellis Baker laughed: ”Didn’t you just arrive as well? No rush, no rush. By the rules, we will host a banquet for you tonight. The Celestial Envoy will come, and then there will be procedures. Immortal-related destiny, if it’s yours, it’s yours. It won’t escape.”

Carson Flores excitedly asked: ”The Celestial Envoy will come?”

Ellis Baker smiled: ”Yes, the Celestial Envoy will come to test your immortal-related destiny. Depending on the destiny, the level of attention you get varies, as does the enhancement you receive.”

Carson Flores said with enthusiasm: ”So, success or failure hinges on tonight?”

Ellis Baker nodded: ”You could say that. Remember, since your sister here is treating you to a drink, if you rise to great heights, don’t forget about your sister.”

Carson Flores patted his chest, speaking magnanimously: ”If I have an immortal-related destiny and become an Immortal or a Celestial Envoy, I will definitely not forget my sister.”

Ellis Baker smiled and raised her wine bowl: ”Brother Lin has the spirit. Come on, cheers!”

As the two were drinking, a man’s voice suddenly came from the yard entrance.

”Heard there’s a Newcomer, huh? Ellis Baker, that’s too much, pulling someone to drink in broad daylight. You’re not thinking of doing something to him, are you?”

Carson Flores turned his head to look and saw a towering big man standing at the door, arms crossed, with the look of someone enjoying the show.

Ellis Baker scoffed: ”What I do, what’s it to you, Dillon Bernard!”

Dillon Bernard laughed heartily: ”I’m just worried that if you get him drunk, what will he do tonight? It’s been ages since someone had a good drink with me. I’ve been looking forward to tonight.”

Ellis Baker suddenly gave a charming smile: ”Want to drink? Then come on in, my door isn’t closed.”

Dillon Bernard strode in: ”That’s what you said, huh? I’ve been craving your Hundred Flowers Fairy Wine for a long time.”

With Dillon Bernard’s arrival, more and more people came to the door to greet the Newcomer, eager to see the spectacle; quite a few even joined in.

Consciously, Carson Flores repeated the matter about Cristopher Hopkins Immortal, and then, from the involuntary yet secretive attitude of the crowd, Carson Flores was completely certain of one thing.

The Immortals of Mystical Immortal Island must have enmity with Domain Master Nico Weaver!

First, they don’t know that Alfred Weaver is Nico Weaver’s daughter. This still needs to be revealed by Carson Flores.

Second, after learning Alfred Weaver’s identity, the first reaction of everyone was anger and barely concealed murderous intent, which they then covered up, leaving plenty of slip-ups.

Carson Flores sighed inwardly, marvelling that such an Immortal was hidden in the Barbaric Wilderness Realm.

An Immortal of tens of thousands of years!

Impressive!

In front of everyone, Ellis Baker didn’t utter any sour words about the Special Envoy and even spoke much less.

Carson Flores, hinting around the bush to the crowd, gathered a lot of information.

All residents of Carefree Village are Demi Immortals, ranging in ages from over a thousand like Ellis Baker to seven or eight thousand years old.

All these people are just like Ameer James, hoping to live a little longer, thus they stay here, hoping to follow the Immortal and gain immortal-related destiny to attain Ascension and become Immortal.

The three Celestial Envoys are also Demi Immortals; originally, they were the same as them. But later, they were chosen by the Immortal to attend closely, thus, they obtained a unique status which everyone envied.

Kobe Tate has only become a Celestial Envoy in the last few hundred years, and before that, he earnestly pursued Ellis Baker. Now he wouldn’t even give Ellis Baker a second glance; no wonder Ellis Baker was so indignant.

As they continued to drink, twilight fell.

Ameer James arrived at the gate with a middle-aged man, chuckling: ”So everyone’s here, huh? Talking about a welcoming feast yet you’ve already started drinking...”
