The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 2132: Chapter 2132: Go In, Don’t Make Me Use Force!

How did Ben Singleton know about the space folding technique on both sides of the path?

Isn’t he supposed to be in the Middle Celestial Stage?

No, it seems that he himself claimed to be in the Middle Celestial Stage. When I treated him, I didn’t actually probe his true strength.

His physical abilities are extraordinary, seemingly beyond what a Celestial should possess, which is also very peculiar.

He said he had amnesia. Is that true?

After he woke up, he didn’t leave; instead, he proactively wanted to join the team. Did he overhear our conversation while unconscious and learn about Mack Conley’s identity as the Son of Destiny, wanting to ride the luck wave?

Thinking more carefully, isn’t our being here also due to his guidance?

All these suspicious points add up on one person; it’s not just suspicious anymore, it means something is definitely wrong with this person!

Carson Flores conjured the Ethereal Pagoda and slipped inside. Soon, his Incarnation appeared outside the pagoda.

Tatum Howard left a life-or-death riddle, and Carson must tread carefully.

True Self sits in the pagoda, while the Incarnation roams freely.

Carson stepped into the passageway, and suddenly everything blurred; he was no longer in the passage, but in a spacious stone chamber hall with all of Mack Conley and the others present, not one missing.

Callan Mason saw Carson enter and laughed, ”Looks like everyone really trusts the Captain.”

Carson smiled and said, ”When gambling with the heavens, who plays against the Son of Destiny? Going against him is like giving away for free.”

No one noticed Carson had swapped, except for Ben Singleton, who looked at Carson with a mix of surprise and doubt.

Carson had been suspicious of Ben earlier and took note. The fleeting change in Ben’s expression was captured entirely by Carson.

What is he surprised about?

Confused?

Could he have found something wrong with me?

Switching between Incarnation and True Self, no matter how real, there is always a difference, albeit hard to detect. Back then, not even Sergio Wilkins and the others could tell and were completely fooled.

If Ben can spot something amiss, does it suggest his strength surpasses that of Sergio Wilkins?

This speculation quietly shocked Carson. Fortunately, his True Self was in the Ethereal Pagoda, so he wasn’t worried. Moreover, when Ben joined the team, he took a Heavenly Oath, not to reveal Mack Conley’s identity or betray teammates, so Carson wasn’t afraid of being harmed by him.

Unless Ben can defy the heavens and change the Dao, under the Heavenly Oath, all beings are equal. If he breaks the oath, he’ll face divine retribution.

Carson looked around: ”What’s the situation here? It seems pretty quiet.”

Judith Hamilton smiled, ”Quiet is good; it means this is the safe route, and Brother Blackwood chose wisely. If there was commotion, we might already be dead.”

Carson frowned and said, ”But this room seems closed, with no exits.”

Callan Mason looked around and uncertainly said, ”Perhaps we need to wait a bit?”

The group exchanged glances; for a moment, there was no other solution.

”Then let’s wait and see if anything changes.”

Meanwhile, Brodie Fleming and another person, Jiang Yue Lin, entered the tomb, standing at the fork, seeing the words carved on the wall.

Brodie Fleming frowned and said, ”A life-and-death choice, have they already gone in?”

Jiang Yue Lin looked around, ”They probably have. There are no other roads, nor any signs of destruction around.”

Brodie Fleming scanned the surroundings, searching for clues to figure out which direction Carson and the others took.

After a while, Brodie gave up, as if some invisible force had erased all traces.

Brodie looked at Jiang Yue Lin, ”Which side do you choose?”

Jiang Yue Lin paused, eyes filled with horror, ”Both sides look the same, I can’t tell.”

Brodie frowned, ”If we could tell, it wouldn’t be a test. I’m asking you, which side do you want to choose?”

I don’t want to choose either side!

I don’t want to take risks!

I just want to follow you, take some benefits if it’s safe, and let you deal with any danger!

Jiang Yue Lin dared not voice these thoughts, seeing Brodie’s cold expression, he felt chilled, and couldn’t avoid answering. After looking around, he nervously pointed to the right, ”I’ll choose the right side.”

Brodie nodded calmly, ”Then go in.”

Jiang Yue Lin’s eyes widened suddenly, ”Elder...”

Brodie looked at Jiang Yue Lin, ”We’ve come this far, do you want to turn back and be laughed at by those outside? There’s a fifty-fifty chance, you have to gamble, or are you thinking of having me face all the dangers while you take the rewards?”

Jiang Yue Lin broke out in a cold sweat, his face turning pale, ”Elder, I didn’t mean that...”

”Then go in!”

Brodie’s eyes turned cold, ”Don’t force me to throw you in.”

Jiang Yue Lin felt a chill in his heart, regretting following Brodie here for adventure, knowing full well his reputation for ruthlessness!

Jiang Yue Lin knew that if he didn’t enter, Brodie would indeed act against him; it was better to be proactive.

Clenching his teeth and closing his eyes, Jiang Yue Lin stormed into the right passage like a whirlwind...
