The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Capítulo 2025: Chapter 2025: Escape? Are You Tired of Living?

“What do we need to do?”

Carson Flores smiled and said, “It’s simple, gather your people together, and I’ll use a magical treasure to take you away. Just don’t resist.”

Aiden Roth gritted his teeth and asked, “Now?”

Carson Flores inquired, “Will this Flying Boat keep moving forward?”

Aiden Roth replied, “It will pause slightly every noon to let everyone rest.”

Carson Flores nodded, “Then we’ll do it at noon. You go ahead and contact them.”

Aiden Roth hesitated for a moment then said, “I’m not sure if everyone is willing to escape, and if… I mean if something goes wrong in the process, just leave us and save yourself.”

Carson Flores smiled, “If I leave, you might be doomed for sure. Are you still sure about contacting them under such circumstances?”

Aiden Roth said softly, “I am the Saint Heir of the Sect. If there’s no chance, I will escape alone, but since there is a chance, I want everyone else to escape together…”

Carson Flores nodded in understanding, “Go ahead and do it. Even if something goes wrong and I can’t take everyone, taking you should be no problem.”

Aiden Roth looked at Carson Flores sincerely, “Thank you!”

Carson Flores gave a slight smile, “Friend, no need to be so formal.”

Aiden Roth turned around and disappeared into the crowd of disciples from the Ghost King Tomb.

Carson Flores followed the group, flying neither fast nor slow, like a drop of water merging into the sea, without causing any ripples.

Soon, Aiden Roth returned and whispered, “I informed everyone. At noon, we’ll gather for an important announcement. I didn’t mention the escape fearing the news might leak.”

“At noon, do your best; save as many as you can. Ensure your own safety first.”

Carson Flores nodded, “Alright!”

Having settled things, Aiden Roth asked softly, “What’s the attitude from the Celestial Palace?”

Carson Flores smiled, “The Domain Master is still in seclusion and hasn’t succeeded in advancing to the Great Land. They can’t be allowed to easily bring an army to the city gates, so I’m here to make some trouble and stall their progress.”

Aiden Roth widened his eyes, “What are you going to do?”

Carson Flores laughed, “Deliver a gift, slay some dragons, and see if there’s a chance to take down a couple of Great Land Sovereigns.”

Aiden Roth was dumbfounded, “Brother, are you crazy? Those are Great Land Sovereigns! In their presence, Immortals are like ants without the power to resist. My master was incinerated by flames from a mere snap of their fingers, and he was a Peak Heavenly Immortal. We can’t fight them!”

Carson Flores smiled, “I know what I’m doing, just wait and see.”

Aiden Roth looked at Carson Flores, who was smiling confidently, feeling utterly complex.

Has Carson Flores grown to such an extent?

Not even fearing the Great Land Sovereigns?

It’s really a case of comparing oneself with others leading to despair, and comparing goods leads to discarding.

Soon, noon arrived, and the nine Azure Dragons in front roared thunderously and came to a stop. The fortress-like Star Domain Flying Boat also gradually ceased its movement.

The tens of thousands of Immortals following behind the Star Domain Flying Boat halted as well, descending from the sky for a brief rest.

Since Aiden Roth had already informed everyone, all the disciples of the Ghost King Tomb gathered around him.

A few hundred people in an army of tens of thousands didn’t particularly stand out. Moreover, it was common for people from the various sects to cluster together.

Even the Celestial Horse Knights patrolling the skies just glanced at the gathering crowd a couple of times and then calmly shifted their gaze elsewhere.

The Great Land Sovereign was on the Star Domain Flying Boat; who would dare act recklessly?

Escape?

Rebel?

What difference does it make to courting death?

If these people truly had the courage to rebel or flee, they wouldn’t mind making an example by killing a few hundred among the many. What does it matter?

After all, these Immortals are like leeks, cutting them down only for them to regrow automatically.

All the disciples of the Ghost King Tomb gathered together, their eyes unanimously focused on Aiden Roth.

Aiden Roth said in a deep voice, “In a moment, a magical treasure will take us away. Everyone must not resist. Someone is going to lead us to escape this place.”

Everyone’s eyes suddenly widened in shock.

What did he say?

Planning to escape?

Escaping right under the gaze of the Great Land Sovereign, isn’t that courting death?

Aiden Roth didn’t give anyone a chance to question, leaving those words, he turned to look at Carson Flores beside him.

“I’m counting on you!”

Carson Flores gave a slight nod and waved his hand, the Ethereal Pagoda flew out from his sleeve, hovering above the crowd, shedding golden light that instantly enveloped the heads of hundreds of disciples from the Ghost King Tomb.

The Ghost King Tomb disciples, though still in shock and panic, instinctively followed Aiden Roth’s earlier instructions, choosing to submit and not resist the captivating golden light.

The golden light flashed, and the hundreds of Ghost King Tomb disciples felt a flicker before their eyes. They found themselves inside the Pagoda, no longer in the resting wilderness, but in a vast valley.

At the valley’s peak stood a woman in white like snow, facing the wind. Beside the woman stood Carson Flores, his expression calm.

When they looked at Carson Flores, they were immediately filled with amazement.

Hey, wasn’t this person just standing next to Aiden Roth? How is he inside the Pagoda now?
