The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 1878: Chapter 1878: Starting with the Northern Mystic Sect!

Everyone widened their eyes, looking at the refined man in surprise.

The man drinking sat up a bit, asking in astonishment, “Does this matter also involve that kid?”

The refined man nodded: “Carson Flores first went to find the Spirit-Separation Sect, used some methods, located the Sect’s whereabouts, and was then taken underground, with the Formation sealed, as they prepared to kill him to ensure the Sect’s location wouldn’t be leaked.”

“However, Carson miraculously escaped. This must lead to the exposure of the Spirit-Separation Sect, forcing them to destroy their Sect and move to a backup location.”

“Carson later entered the Azure Dragon Clan as an Immortal Palace Envoy, visited the Azure Dragon King, and then followed to the Dragon Race Sacred Land. There, a change occurred, and he was swept into the Sacred Land. What happened inside is unclear, but he gained the recognition of the Ancestor of the Dragon Clan, who ordered the Clan to remain neutral and not participate in any conflict.”

Everyone was dumbfounded.

Alone, causing the Spirit-Separation Sect to destroy and relocate?

And still able to gain the recognition of the Ancestor of the Dragon Clan?

Is this kid a monstrous genius?

The drinking man muttered, “He used to be just a True Immortal, trapped in a Great Formation, and yet so many Heavenly Immortals couldn’t kill a single True Immortal?”

Maggie Fitzgerald’s eyes shone. She certainly didn’t want to hear good news about Carson, but at least this proved Carson’s uniqueness, showing that it wasn’t her incompetence that led to her repeated setbacks at Carson’s hands—he’s just too extraordinary!”

The refined man said, “Carson indeed seems peculiar, probably with fortunate fate, but fortunately his strength isn’t that great. No need to be deliberate; if the chance arises, just kill him at ease.”

Everyone agreed with a nod.

Though they were quite curious about Carson’s odd existence, anyone who could sit in this hall had at least the strength of an Immortal Monarch or was close to it; a newly ascended Golden Immortal wasn’t enough to earn much attention from them.

The refined man glanced around: “If a direct attack won’t work, let’s first find someone to test our blade and display our prowess. As for who to target, let’s choose the Northern Mystic Sect.”

“The Northern Mystic Sect ranks among the Top Ten Immortal Sects, with substantial power, but after experiencing division, their power has severely diminished, making them the best target for demonstration. Furthermore, their loyalty to the Celestial Palace makes them the perfect example to set.”

“Overthrowing the Northern Mystic Sect and observing the Celestial Palace’s reaction—if they choose to fight, they defy morality, thereby justifying our actions. If they don’t, our Heavenly Alliance will have established a foothold, allowing us to reveal ourselves openly.”

Maggie Fitzgerald’s eyes were filled with excitement; she wouldn’t feel uneasy or guilty because the Northern Mystic Sect was once her home. She had awaited this day for a long time.

Aren’t you just subservient to the Celestial Palace?

I’ll knock you all down, making sure you realize that not listening to me was your greatest mistake!

“Left Envoy Yang, instruct your people to hide well and not reveal themselves for the time being. We’ll use the Celestial Palace’s rules to slap the Celestial Palace’s face. Even if they turn hostile, on the spot, their actions will lose public support, reducing the number of their supporters. Then, we’ll unite in force; whether or not we can destroy the Celestial Palace, the purpose of this mission will be considered achieved.”

The refined man stood up, smiling slightly: “Ladies and gentlemen, today is the day we make our name known in the Thunder Immortal Realm; prepare to celebrate!”

…

Two days passed by in a flash.

The Tian Xuan Martial Arts officially started.

In the Great Desolate Ancient Battlefield, tens of thousands of cultivators surrounded a massive basin, serving as the arena for this martial arts event.

The Black Cloud Vessel was perched atop the highest peak, like a Deity, overseeing everything below.

Alfred Weaver was seated at the bow’s loft-like spot, precisely overlooking the entire battlefield.

Carson stood at the side, leaning on the railing to gaze out.

The surrounding people were densely packed, yet on the left side of the Black Cloud Vessel, there was a large area with not many people, making it quite spacious.

The Top Ten Immortal Sects!

Carson glanced around; in front of each faction’s delegation was a large flagpole, from which the identities could be discerned by the banners.

This gathering was a major event in the Heavenly Profound Continent, with other powerful factions from different continents not participating, notably excluding the Azure Nether Divine Palace from the Divine Flame Continent, the Heavenly Fox Palace from the Heavenly Demon Continent, Scarlet Flame Island from the Dragon Spirit Continent, Divine Glory Sect from the White Feather Continent, and the Immortal Arrow Sect from the Blood Martial Continent.

Closest to the Black Cloud Vessel was the Northern Mystic Sect, as they were loyal to the Celestial Palace, especially after the Maggie Fitzgerald incident, they only had two choices: either defect to the Heavenly Alliance with Maggie or remain staunch supporters of the Celestial Palace and fight the Heavenly Alliance, washing away their shame with the Alliance’s blood.

Further from the Northern Mystic Sect was the Treasure Path Sect group, followed by the Ghost King Tomb, then the Emperor Cloud Sect, and lastly the Divine Wood Palace.

Carson’s gaze landed within the Divine Wood Palace’s group, and upon a closer look, he found his target.

Wife Samantha Tate.

Before coming to the Heavenly Profound Continent, Carson first went to the Northern Mystic Sect, then to the Divine Wood Palace, and finally reached the Celestial Palace, so Samantha wasn’t aware he was in the Celestial Palace.

Carson had no intention of meeting Samantha at this time.

The fewer people who knew about his relationship with Samantha, the better!
