The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 1372: Chapter 1372: Why Settle for a Quarter When You Can Have Half?

Uncle Master Zeng?

A call from a White Crane Immortal Sect Disciple caught everyone’s attention.

How come this person looks so young, yet holds such a high seniority?

Could it be some old monster who has rejuvenated after consuming some Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures?

Carson Flores nodded: ”What’s the situation?”

The leading White Crane Disciple, Collin Lane, bowed and replied: ”Our team and the Flowing Cloud Sect team discovered this place first; we were having a dispute. Then other teams arrived one after another, and we all sent out distress signals...”

Carson Flores nodded: ”Is that person injured?”

Collin Lane answered: ”There’s a scorpion in the underbrush beneath the tree, about twenty centimeters long. It took a palm strike from a Human Immortal without dying and even broke through the palm force, stinging him afterward. Its tail is highly venomous; he is cultivating to expel the poison...”

A twenty-centimeter-long scorpion broke a Human Immortal’s defense?

That strong?

Carson Flores’s eyes lit up; could this be considered a rare talent, perhaps a mythical beast?

While he was thinking, Ashley Reid also arrived.

”You watch them; I’ll take a look.”

After understanding the situation, Carson Flores decided to make the first move to avoid complications as more people arrived.

Since the Misty Moon Peach has been seen, it naturally has to be ours!

Just as Carson Flores was about to take off, Kyrie Collins from the Flowing Cloud Sect coldly spoke: ”White Crane Immortal Sect Friend, with so many people here, do you regard these Misty Moon Peaches as items in your pocket?”

Carson Flores calmly replied: ”Someone has to pick them anyway, right? Are we all supposed to just keep staring at them like this, and the conflicts will be resolved, deciding the ownership of the Misty Moon Peaches?”

Kyrie Collins sneered: ”Agree on a plan of action first, to avoid injuries and hard feelings.”

Carson Flores halted his steps, smiling: ”Alright then... let’s discuss.”

Kyrie Collins was slightly stunned; he hadn’t expected Carson Flores to be so agreeable. With just one comment, he actually agreed?

Has he chickened out?

Kyrie Collins turned his head to look at the leaders of the other two Sects: ”Since we all found it together, and the quantity of the Misty Moon Peaches isn’t too small, why don’t we divide it equally to avoid hard feelings?”

Carson Flores frowned slightly, without expressing any opinion.

He was curious to see what the others had to say.

If everyone agreed to share equally, Carson Flores could accept that outcome. However, his intuition told Carson Flores that it wouldn’t be that simple.

Misty Moon Peaches, each one is incomparably precious; who wouldn’t want to have them all to themselves?

Ashley Reid, seeing Carson Flores silent, also kept quiet. As the highest-ranking member of the White Cloud Immortal Sect present, Carson Flores had proven his strength, and Ashley Reid naturally followed his lead.

The two Human Immortals leading the Supreme Heaven Sect looked at each other, and the one on the left, Jaziel Robertson, said in a heavy tone: ”Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures are for those with the ability to claim them. If everything must be shared, why bother exploring separately and competing at all?”

Just as expected!

Carson Flores smirked, knowing someone would disagree.

Among the four Sects, both the White Crane Immortal Sect and the Supreme Heaven Sect had two Human Immortals present, while the Flowing Cloud Sect and Yunze Sect only had one each, an obvious imbalance of power. Under such circumstances, why would the weaker parties agree to share equally with the stronger ones?

Kyrie Collins sneered: ”What, do you Robertson brothers think you have the upper hand with more people?”

Jaziel Robertson ignored Kyrie Collins and turned to Carson Flores: ”Fellow friend from the White Crane Immortal Sect, since we both have two people each, and our strengths are comparable, why not join forces to drive them away and then share equally between us?”

Carson Flores quickly agreed: ”Fine.”

Why settle for a quarter when one can have half?

Kyrie Collins’s expression changed abruptly: ”Planning to bully the few with numbers?”

Eden Robertson, who had not spoken, coldly remarked: ”Cut the crap, either leave or die. You might escape, but it’s unclear how many of those behind you will survive.”

Kyrie Collins’s face turned quite ugly. He turned his eyes to the robust man on the ground: ”Qi Jun, what do you think?”

The robust man stood up, raising his right arm, which still had remaining traces of black qi.

”Damn it, so poisonous! Just bad luck for me!”

Qi Jun ignored Kyrie Collins and got up cleanly: ”Let’s go!”

Qi Jun led his people in a tactical retreat, leaving Kyrie Collins even more isolated. After spinning his eyes, Kyrie Collins sneered: ”You’re ruthless, but the mountain doesn’t turn if the river does; we’re leaving!”

Kyrie Collins quickly led the Flowing Cloud Sect away, but after traveling a hundred miles, he stopped, and with a stern face, ordered: ”The Robertson brothers are greedy and ferocious. Their alliance with the White Crane Immortal Sect is just a temporary measure; they are bound to fight eventually. You go ahead; I’ll go back to watch.”

He directed his team to explore in another direction and, after making a detour, snuck back toward the area cautiously.

As he approached the valley, Kyrie Collins felt a premonition and looked towards the distance.

Who else could that person darting through the trees on the opposite mountain peak be if not Qi Jun?

Kyrie Collins smirked and wasn’t too surprised.

All being cunning as thousand-year-old foxes, who would willingly give up so many Misty Moon Peaches!

Previously in the presence of Sect’s Disciples, they worried about unintended consequences, but now without those concerns, isn’t it just a battle?

If they can’t win, they can always run away!

At the same time, Qi Jun also noticed Kyrie Collins, hesitated for a moment, and flew close to the ground toward him.

”Damn it, you’re truly cunning!”

Kyrie Collins retorted: ”The feeling’s mutual, what do you propose?”

Qi Jun snorted: ”Let’s join forces; when the opportunity arises, we’ll take them down!”
