The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 1991: Chapter 1991: Little Uncle Master, Don’t Shoulder Everything Alone!

Carson Flores had just stepped into the mountain gate when his steps suddenly halted.

The White Crane Immortal Sect boasted numerous main peaks, with many buildings and cultivators on the primary ones, yet before Carson’s eyes was a scene of ruins.

Several main peaks had already crumbled, reduced to heaps of scattered rocks.

The once magnificent sight was long gone, leaving only the desolation after the battle.

Carson asked, ”Is the Sect Master here?”

A disciple answered, ”The Sect Master has been in a coma since the battle, the Ancestor is severely injured, many elder brothers and uncles have died, now it’s Uncle Maddox Compton who is handling the sect’s affairs...”

An overwhelming rage surged in Carson’s heart, and he was uncertain whether this calamity was triggered because of him.

If it was, how could he face the death and injury of his fellow sect members?

”Take me to see him.”

”Uncle Master, please follow me!”

On one of the still-standing giant peaks, Carson met Maddox Compton, the current manager of the White Crane Immortal Sect.

Maddox Compton was studying a prescription with a clouded expression. Upon seeing Carson, his eyes suddenly brightened, and he threw down the prescription he held.

”Little Uncle Master! You’re back, the Sect Master can be saved!”

Carson stopped Maddox Compton from performing a greeting, ”Tell me, what happened.”

Maddox Compton answered respectfully, ”Half a year ago, a group suddenly arrived at the sect, claiming they had vital matters concerning the life and death of the White Crane Immortal Sect to discuss. Once everyone, including the Sect Master, arrived at the great hall, they revealed their true identity. They were all from the Heavenly Alliance, and their leader claimed to be Cedric James, the Blue Clothed Blood Envoy from the Heavenly Alliance.”

”Cedric James demanded that the White Crane Immortal Sect submits entirely to the Heavenly Alliance, or else we would be killed without hesitation. Naturally, we refused, and the Sect Master rejected them sternly. This group was prepared and immediately mercilessly attacked the Sect Master and everyone present.”

”Though there was a formation in the great hall, these people were too powerful, several of them were Heavenly Immortals with formidable strength; despite the formation’s protection, the casualties were severe.”

”They directly attacked our main peaks, causing several to collapse in succession. The Ancestor broke through the barrier, gambling his life, relying on the sect’s formations, managed to repel these people a hundred miles away, using this brief moment to activate the Mountain Protection Array, preventing total annihilation of our sect.”

”The Ancestor was gravely wounded, the Sect Master is in a coma, the leadership suffered heavy casualties, and many disciples were also lost. We dared not venture outside, so we kept the Great Formation on, sealing the mountain gate until Uncle Master returned today... Uncle Master, was there no one stopping you outside?”

Selah Ellison Immortal Lord replied, ”Indeed, while approaching the White Crane Immortal Sect, there were people spying, but I thought they were from the White Crane Immortal Sect, so I didn’t pay much attention...”

Maddox Compton smiled bitterly, ”It seems they haven’t given up, they must be keeping watch on us.”

Carson pondered deeply; half a year ago was roughly when Nico Weaver returned and defeated Aydin Hatfield; the Blue Clothed Blood Envoy from Skyland Continent suddenly showed his identity to target the White Crane Immortal Sect. Was this a command Aydin Hatfield issued before making a move, or after his failure?

If it’s the former, it indicates they have ambitions to sweep across the Immortal Domains, prompting Blood Envoys from various continents to stir up trouble. If it’s the latter, perhaps it’s Aydin Hatfield sacrificing others to protect his main force?

Activated to attract Celestial Palace’s attention, thereby safeguarding their main troops from being noticed?

”Did they mention why they chose the White Crane Immortal Sect as their target?”

Maddox Compton answered, ”Our White Crane Immortal Sect has always been a loyal follower of the Celestial Palace, and previously, when Cristopher Hopkins Immortal returned, our sect served as the main supporter. If followers like us submit, others naturally won’t resist. If we’re unwilling, they’ll serve as an example, achieving the same effect...”

Carson confirmed, ”Did they mention me?”

Maddox Compton paused, slightly puzzled, ”No, why does Uncle Master ask?”

Carson smiled wryly, ”I saved Alfred Weaver, thwarting Maggie Fitzgerald, the Red-robed Blood Envoy’s schemes multiple times. I’m worried they vented their anger on the White Crane Immortal Sect because of me...”

Maddox Compton realized, confirming, ”Uncle Master, you overthink. Our duty as Celestial Palace followers includes caring for Cristopher Hopkins Immortal; the Heavenly Alliance targeting the Celestial Palace naturally starts with us; this matter likely has nothing to do with Uncle Master.”

”Even if it does, everything you’ve done is honorable; we all know and support it. If there are consequences, naturally we bear it together; how could we let Little Uncle Master bear the burden alone?”

”Our White Crane Immortal Sect, though not a top-tier sect, we’ve had our glory, we have dignity and responsibility, Little Uncle Master, please don’t carry this alone...”

Carson nodded, calmly stating, ”No matter what, since I’ve returned, I will indeed pursue justice, but before that, take me to see the injured. I may be able to concoct some elixirs to help.”
