The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 2402: Chapter 2402: I Can’t Die—It’s Destiny!

Carson Flores had never expected that this sect war would have such hidden agendas.

”Isn’t the Myriad Immortals Palace afraid of the Three Sects becoming too powerful?”

Floating Cloud chuckled, ”Think carefully, it’s different.”

Carson thought for a moment, then smiled.

Indeed, it’s different.

The Sea God Sect can harvest the Will Power of believers to enhance their power, but the Three Sects cannot.

Carson asked, ”Since the Myriad Immortals Palace sanctioned this, didn’t they offer you any benefits?”

Floating Cloud laughed, ”They allow the unique existence of the Three Sects, letting us develop and expand freely. Isn’t that a benefit? We are a religion, but we are also an Immortal Sect. However, we still have to heed the Myriad Immortals Palace.”

Carson compared this to ancient times; isn’t the Myriad Immortals Palace just like the imperial court? Thinking this way, he suddenly understood.

Carson took out the Spirit Buddha Pill, ”Master, this elixir should help your injuries. Please take it.”

Floating Cloud widened his eyes in surprise, ”A Spirit Buddha Pill! This is a rare Spirit Pill from the Dharma, they wouldn’t offer it for no reason. Where did you get it?”

”It was given by that person.”

Carson realized Floating Cloud might not know about the latter events due to his severe injuries, so he briefly explained.

Upon hearing The Wither-Bloom Sage had taken Carson and nearly killed him, Floating Cloud was enraged, ”That old guy is too arrogant, does he think Dragon Mountain can’t do anything to him, daring to capture my disciple!”

Carson consoled, ”He was possessed by a Heart Demon at that time, it wasn’t his true nature. Didn’t he eventually compensate by helping me once in person? That’s a considerable compensation.”

Floating Cloud snorted, ”It’s not that simple. I must confront him, yes, some compensation must be made.”

After a pause, Floating Cloud smiled, ”Rest assured, they are in the wrong. While possessed, he was unreasonable, but when he regains normalcy, he will be reasonable. I’ll cajole some good stuff and give it to you, to ease your mind.”

Carson was amused, thinking, ”You certainly speak clearly.”

The possessed Wither-Bloom Sage is unreasonable and unbeatable, best not to provoke. But the normal Wither-Bloom Sage, being reasonable, can be persuaded for something.

His master is indeed ”realistic.”

”Alright, since you’re fine, you go ahead. Once I’ve absorbed this Spirit Buddha Pill, my body will recover somewhat, and I won’t have to remain seated here.”

”Yes!”

Carson left the camp, finally having time to meet Selah Ellison and the other two ladies.

Samantha Tate hugged Carson tightly, her eyes red, ”You scared me to death! I heard... that after he was possessed, he became inhumane, killing indiscriminately. I thought for sure, brother, that you were doomed.”

Carson patted her on the back, smiling, ”I have a tough fate, you heard too, Master divined that I’m the one who can solve Dragon Mountain Sect’s great calamity, which means I won’t die before it’s resolved, so don’t worry, it’s destiny!”

The three women were shocked by Carson’s reverse reasoning, but on second thought, it made a lot of sense.

As long as Floating Cloud’s divination was correct, it meant Carson would be alive during the Dragon Mountain Sect’s calamity!

If Carson dies, how could he possibly resolve Dragon Mountain Sect’s calamity?

”Divination is a prediction of the future, which is uncertain and subject to change. Especially since the elder has taken you as a disciple, no one knows if destiny will change, so you should still be cautious.”

Carson nodded, looking resigned, ”I was practicing the Dragon Mountain Cloud Dream Art, who knew disaster would fall from the sky? I can’t inherit the Cloud Dream Technique with my incarnation!”

The three women had no words for Carson’s explanation, after all, this is within the Three Sects’ camp, with countless strong individuals, who knows what unexpected events might occur?

After calming the women, Carson asked, ”How’s the Sea God Sect, and what about Lorvian Randall?”

Having witnessed the entire battle, Lilianna Noran replied, ”Lorvian Randall was injured, but it shouldn’t be too serious, he should still be in the Sea God Sect’s camp.”

Carson pondered, ”If Lorvian Randall faced Profound River, would he win with the Sea Tide Pearl?”

The three women exchanged glances, and Selah Ellison shook her head, ”Hard to say, Lorvian Randall fought injured, but even so, Profound River had to use Dragon Mountain Secret Art to boost his power to narrowly surpass Lorvian Randall. He is undeniably very strong.”

Samantha Tate said with lingering fear, ”The Three Sects won so narrowly. If Lorvian Randall wasn’t injured and was replaced by someone stronger, the outcome might have been different!”

Carson sighed, ”If there was someone to replace him, surely able to defeat Profound River, the Sea God Sect wouldn’t have allowed him to fight injured. Perhaps the Sea God Sect has many geniuses, but not many of this caliber.”

Everyone agreed, if there was a better choice, why let Lorvian Randall continue while injured?

He faces no ordinary opponent but a Three Sects Heir with countless treasures!

Carson hesitated, ”I’ll go meet him.”
