The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 2240: Chapter 2240: A Woman’s Collecting Obsession?

Carson Flores stepped into emptiness, his body instantly disappearing from where he stood.

The black flame swept past Carson Flores’s original position, leaving behind a trail of transparent spatial ripples.

Carson was stunned; the power of this black flame was immense, almost comparable to the Dragon Clan’s innate skill, Dragonflame.

The magical beast was truly ferocious!

If his strength was slightly lacking, encountering these two magical beasts might have cost him his life.

Carson merely wanted to gauge their actual combat power without engaging in a real fight with them. With a flash, he vanished from the spot.

Looking back, Carson saw the beast spewing black flames did not pursue him but turned to pounce on the heavily wounded beast that Carson had just slashed.

The two giant beasts clashed once again, but the outcome was apparent. The injured beast was clearly not a match for its opponent, being knocked down and tumbling across the wilderness, followed by its piercing screams echoing in the air.

Carson rubbed his chin thoughtfully. It seems the magical beasts are full of hostility towards invaders, but as long as you keep your distance, their hostility diminishes. To them, it doesn’t seem to matter if the invader is of their kin or human.

Carson surveyed his surroundings, the world vast and boundless with no end in sight, leaving him wondering where to go.

After hesitating for a few seconds, Carson produced an induction talisman given by Icy Watson, injected spiritual energy, causing strands of silver light to glow and float in the air. At the center of the talisman, a compass-like rune lit up, resembling an arrow pointing in a particular direction.

Carson pocketed the induction talisman and proceeded in the direction indicated by the talisman.

For Carson, who had no clear destination, it didn’t matter which direction he chose, so he might as well head towards the location of Icy Watson’s grandfather.

Taking a few steps forward, Carson was once again suddenly attacked by a magical beast.

The beast was bizarrely shaped, possessed strong power, and attacked unexpectedly.

Carson simply elevated his position, rising above the clouds, finally evading the magical beast’s pursuit.

Carson deeply understood the challenges of exploring this Secret Realm. Flying above the Heavenly Dome and clouds can indeed avoid many magical beasts and is much safer, but if the goal is to explore the Secret Realm and find Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, hiding in the Heavenly Dome won’t help.

To find and collect Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, one must get closer to the ground, at least fly at a low altitude, or even go through dense forests to discover those treasures hidden in the Great Wilderness. However, this means facing countless magical beasts lurking in the Great Wilderness.

Invading others’ territories inevitably leads to their frantic attack. You either give up, fleeing hastily, or you kill them and continue exploring.

The Secret Realm is full of magical beasts; can you continuously give up?

Despite their insanity, magical beasts are also intelligent beings, and areas rich in spiritual energy and Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures are usually guarded by powerful magical beasts, waiting to devour them.

To explore and reap significant rewards, one must fight!

Carson didn’t rush blindly to explore close to the ground; the most important goal of this trip was the Harmony Spring. He must first determine its location, while the Void Lotus Herb, although he needed it too, could only be sought by chance.

Flying above the clouds is the suggestion given to disciples from Green Bird City, whether in teams or following sect elders. Since landing points are random, Green Bird City advises everyone not to rush into exploration but to regroup and plan.

The Secret Realm Transport Portal is stable, so there’s no need to worry about prolonged exploration preventing departure from the Secret Realm. Therefore, exploration should be calm and victorious.

Every disciple entering the realm received a talisman capable of sensing the Transport Portal. As long as the talisman is torn, the body will be enveloped by a barrier of spiritual power, drawing it towards the Transport Portal and directly escaping the Secret Realm.

This is Green Bird City’s emergency escape method for every disciple facing danger, though successful escape depends on the enemy’s strength level.

Carson was perhaps lucky; his landing point was not far from Icy Watson’s grandfather. After flying for four days, the induction talisman became extremely bright, indicating he was very close to the target.

Lucas White had not yet appeared, and Carson decided not to wait any longer.

He flew in the direction of the induction, and soon, between a valley, he discovered his target.

Icy Watson’s grandfather, the Great Land Immortal Orion Watson, was resting in the valley with four others, one of them being Icy Watson herself, and the other three were young male cultivators, all dressed in Outer Sect disciple attire.

Carson was puzzled; not a single Inner Sect disciple? Could these three young men all be Icy Watson’s admirers?

Carrying swords like guards?

Carson didn’t rush to descend but instead cast a Water Mirror Technique from a distance, soon learning the basic information of these three people from Kyson Howell’s mouth.

Whether they were Icy Watson’s admirers, Kyson Howell was uncertain, but he was sure they were all familiar with Icy Watson and probably liked her.

Carson’s expression turned slightly odd; is this woman collecting admirers?
