The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 1388: Chapter 1388: What’s the Difference Between a Person Who Is Unreasonable and a Wild Beast?

”Leaving now?”

”Wait a moment.”

Carson Flores walked over to the stele, forcibly yanked it out, and then dug up the entire base of the tombstone from the ground.

This scene shocked everyone.

Uncle Master Zeng, aren’t you being a bit too...?

Even digging up someone’s tombstone?

Could this be considered scraping the ground three feet deep?

Aren’t you afraid that Senior Li will come out and hit you?

Carson Flores packed the tombstone and its similarly-made base directly into his Space Ring, turned his head to see everyone’s dumbfounded expressions, and explained with a smile: ”This is a one-time-use key left by Senior Li. Now that it’s served its purpose and they’ve decided to rest here eternally, this stele no longer holds any meaning, so I don’t think Senior Li would mind me taking it.”

”To others, this might just be a tombstone, but for me, it might serve some other purpose. Mm, consider it part of my findings.”

Carson Flores clapped his hands and smiled, ”Alright, let’s go.”

Carson Flores and his team advanced, and soon came across Qi Jun, who was standing atop the mountain watching the action.

Qi Jun cupped his fists in respect towards Carson Flores, his tone admiring: ”Daoist Flores, today has truly been an eye-opener. I’m most relieved that I didn’t make an enemy out of you, otherwise, I fear I wouldn’t see tomorrow’s sun.”

Carson Flores smiled: ”That’s not necessarily the case. Look, so many of them ran away, I couldn’t catch up.”

Qi Jun gave a bitter smile: ”If we really came to blows, seeing how familiar I am with you, do you think I’d be the first you’d take down?”

Carson Flores thought about it and then laughed: ”With Marcelo Fraley and Eden Robertson as human shields, you’d be low on the list. Look, Kyrie Collins ran away too.”

Qi Jun sighed: ”You are indeed a reasonable man.”

Carson Flores replied: ”Humans should indeed be reasonable, otherwise, what would distinguish us from wild beasts?”

Qi Jun saluted seriously: ”I have learned a lot. If we meet by fate again, I’ll step back three feet!”

Carson Flores chuckled: ”That’s not necessary. I’m not the type to seek trouble if others don’t bother me.”

After pondering, Qi Jun reminded: ”Daoist Flores, although there are rules to this kind of adventure, which state that all strife and conflicts within the Secret Realm will not be pursued by the Sect once outside, this time you’ve killed many from the Sects, and with your venture into the valley, they might make things difficult for you.”

Carson Flores nodded: ”Thanks for the heads-up, but what I said is true. The predecessors here rest with their loved ones, and because they were pleased with our conversation, they helped my Eight-Armed Arhat advance to the second stage. Besides that, I picked some Misty Moon Peaches, and that’s all there was. If they want to fuss over it, there’s nothing I can do. It’s not like I can dig up the Abnormal Phenomenon and give it to them.”

Qi Jun suddenly realized: ”So the advancement of the Abnormal Phenomenon was a blessing from the high and mighty. That’s indeed a great opportunity. I’m just giving you a heads-up, Daoist Flores, there’s no need to worry. After all, the strength of White Crane Immortal Sect is not what it used to be, but it’s still formidable, not something just anyone can handle.”

Carson Flores replied with a smile: ”Thanks for the advice.”

Qi Jun said no more, cupped his fists in farewell, and drifted away.

Carson Flores and his company didn’t linger, heading straight for the entrance at high speed.

Upon reaching the entrance, Carson Flores arranged: ”Second Generation Disciples go first, I will wait here for the other disciples.”

Carson Flores worried that his murderous spree might incite others to seek revenge. While still in the Secret Realm, they might attack the disciples of White Crane Immortal Sect in a fit of vengeance, so he decided to stay and marshal the disciples.

After the Second Generation Disciples left, Ashley Reid signaled all White Crane Immortal Sect disciples for an immediate full retreat.

The two waited near the entrance. By then, many other Sects had also signaled for retreat. After all, most areas worth exploring were already explored, and Carson Flores had ventured into the core areas; staying any longer served little purpose.

Carson Flores waited half a day, watching as squad after squad of White Crane Immortal Sect disciples successfully left the Secret Realm, before finally stepping through the exit with Ashley Reid.

The instant Carson Flores left the Secret Realm, he furrowed his brows because there was an ongoing argument outside, with one party being Sage Tate, the Peak True Immortal who was overseeing on behalf of White Crane Immortal Sect.

”What, you people from Supreme Heaven Sect can’t accept defeat? Threw a tantrum yourselves, tried to play the seniority card, thinking you could take advantage, but ended up picking the wrong fight and hitting a steel plate. And even after being wiped out by my junior uncle, you still have the audacity to speak?”

”Fortune is laid out for everyone; if you couldn’t enter, but my junior uncle could, it means he’s the one fated for the fortune. What’s there for you to be unsatisfied about? Or what, you think you can just lose, fight, and demand back? Is White Crane Immortal Sect so easy to bully?”

”Heh, no matter how many of you my junior uncle killed, that was all within the Secret Realm. We’re outside now, you can’t hold against us what happened within. Of course, if anyone’s still sore about it, no need for excuses; step up, and I’ll practice with them first!”

Sage Tate was in the middle of his passionate rant when he suddenly noticed everyone’s gaze focused behind him. Turning around, his eyes immediately showed excitement and admiration.

”Junior Uncle, you’re out!”
