The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 2003: Chapter 2003: As Long as the Money Is Right, Even Heavenly Immortals Will Do Dirty Work!

”Is that Green Cloudy Valley up ahead?”

”Yes.”

Selah Ellison Venerable One’s gaze was subtle, imbued with a chilling murderous intent.

Returning to this place stirred countless memories in her mind, making her mood instantly turn grim.

Carson Flores asked, ”How do we get in?”

Selah Ellison Venerable One replied, ”I have a Token. If it hasn’t been changed, it should still allow us to enter, but this will inevitably raise suspicion. In their eyes, I’m a traitor now; they might directly use parasitic insects to control me...”

Carson Flores smiled, ”In that case, you should hide in the Ethereal Pagoda. I’ll visit in the capacity of an Immortal Palace Envoy. I doubt they would refuse me entry, don’t you think?”

Selah Ellison Venerable One blinked, ”To hold them accountable?”

Carson Flores nodded, ”Green Cloudy Valley sent assassins to help the Heavenly Alliance against the White Crane Immortal Sect and defy the Celestial Palace. Whether I come as the Heavenly Sword Peak’s Master of the White Crane Immortal Sect or as an Immortal Palace Envoy, I have every right to question them.”

Selah Ellison Venerable One pursed her lips, ”Alright, I’ll follow your lead. The mother parasite controlling me is inside a round, hollowed-out sphere, hanging on the Valley Master’s waist. Once you see him, you’ll spot it.”

Carson Flores took note, ”Should I destroy it or take it?”

Selah Ellison Venerable One responded, ”Take it. Only it can control the parasites inside me. If it leaves my body, even if you kill it, without an antidote, the parasites inside me will still go out of control.”

Carson Flores nodded, ”Alright, don’t show yourself for now. As long as you’re inside the Ethereal Pagoda, even if he’s right in front of me, the mother parasite won’t be able to sense your presence and can’t control the parasites inside you.”

”Mhm, I’ll leave everything to you.”

Selah Ellison Venerable One wasn’t worried. After all, Carson Flores still had the Ethereal Pagoda, and the giant beasts within had already been tamed by the Dark Ancestral Dragon to be obedient. As for those unruly and defiant, they had long since been eliminated, fed to Little Gold.

Recently, Little Gold had devoured many of the giant beasts’ corpses with Ancient Bloodlines, undergoing another transformation with a surge in power, comparable to a Late Celestial Immortal. After discussing with Carson Flores, it was left on the White Crane Immortal Sect’s Heavenly Sword Peak, serving as a guardian Divine Beast for the sect.

Given more time, Little Gold would continue to grow, comparable to a Peak Heavenly Immortal. With its protection, the White Crane Immortal Sect could enjoy millennia of peace.

Carson Flores summoned the Ethereal Pagoda, placing Selah Ellison Venerable One inside, and then proceeded with Spencer Steele brazenly toward the mountain gate of Green Cloudy Valley.

The mountain gate of Green Cloudy Valley was hidden amidst the mist of a gorge, invisible to the naked eye. Moreover, the area was remote, with steep mountains and forests; without being a Cultivator, no one could reach this place.

Even for Cultivators, without guidance pointing out the exact location, it would be difficult to find the mountain gate of Green Cloudy Valley in the rugged mountains.

Carson Flores shouted in a loud voice, ”I am Carson Flores, an Immortal Palace Envoy. I request to see the Valley Master of Green Cloudy Valley!”

After waiting a few minutes, a harmonious and deep male voice echoed through the gorge, ”Our Green Cloudy Valley is reclusive and has no ties with the Celestial Palace. What brings the Envoy here?”

Carson Flores coldly replied, ”I am here to ask on behalf of the Celestial Palace if your Green Cloudy Valley is tired of living, daring to send people to join the Heavenly Alliance, helping them oppose the Celestial Palace?”

The man’s voice carried a hint of doubt, ”Our Green Cloudy Valley has not gone against the Celestial Palace. From where does the Envoy’s claim arise?”

Carson Flores sneered, ”The Blue Clothed Blood Envoy, Cedric James from the Heavenly Alliance, hired your assassins, who followed him and forced the Infinite Sword Sect to surrender to the Heavenly Alliance, then launched a deadly assault on the loyal followers of the Celestial Palace, the White Crane Immortal Sect, nearly wiping them out. Isn’t this opposing the Celestial Palace?”

The man remained silent for a few seconds before speaking with laughter, ”The Envoy might have misunderstood. Since you have approached our Green Cloudy Valley, you must be well-informed about us. Everything we do is for gain; we act for those who pay.”

”The Infinite Sword Sect, the White Crane Immortal Sect, are Sects of the Skyland Continent. Even if we intervene, it’s still a Sect rivalry, which doesn’t involve opposing the Celestial Palace. Our Green Cloudy Valley isn’t bold enough for that. Of course, if the Celestial Palace requires us, as long as the price is right, we are just as willing to fight for the Celestial Palace.”

Carson Flores remarked coldly, ”Is that so? As long as the price is right, you’ll do anything for money, is that it?”

The man chuckled, ”That’s correct. We are just trying to make a living, with no intention to oppose the Celestial Palace. Please don’t misunderstand, Envoy.”

Carson Flores sneered, ”That’s good to hear. Since you enjoy doing business, I have a significant deal to discuss with you...”

The man laughed, ”Envoy, please speak!”

Carson Flores scoffed, ”I’ve heard your Green Cloudy Valley is elusive and mysterious. But now it seems you’re just hiding and won’t even show your face, letting me stand at the door to discuss business?”

There was a brief silence in the mist, then the clouds in the gorge churned, revealing a Light Gate amidst the fog.

”Envoy Carson, please enter!”
