The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 2411: Chapter 2411

The cave was lit with fireballs, illuminating the surroundings.

Lorvian Randall stood at the edge of the flame’s glow, half of his body shrouded in shadow.

Carson Flores chuckled and said, ”Fellow Randall, why the mystery?”

”Someone’s watching me, I need to be cautious.”

Lorvian Randall waved his hand, and suddenly the cave was enveloped in the light of a Formation, covering the entire cave entirely, even sealing the cave entrance.

Carson Flores didn’t move, instead tilted his head slightly as he carefully examined Lorvian Randall standing at the shadow’s edge, then suddenly sighed, ”So it turns out to be a fake after all this mystery.”

”Hmm?”

The ”Lorvian Randall” in the darkness raised his head, sounding slightly surprised, ”How did you recognize I was a fake? Did my disguise fall short, or did my voice give me away?”

Carson Flores laughed, ”You hide at the border of light and shadow. Even if your disguise is flawed, it’s hard for me to notice. Though the voice has minor deviations, it still wasn’t what tipped me off that you’re not Lorvian Randall.”

”Lorvian Randall” chuckled and asked, ”I’d love to hear more.”

Carson Flores casually replied, ”Lorvian Randall carries an air of grandeur, a prideful spirit, wherever he stands, he carries a unique aura about him. While you stand there, I don’t feel that aura at all, instead there’s a ghostly chill...”

”Clap clap clap!”

The man stepped out from the shadow, gently clapping his hands, his tone mocking, ”Your insight is indeed sharp. But I’ve calculated correctly after all, if Lorvian Randall had asked you, you’d definitely come to the rendezvous directly rather than verifying with the Sea God Sect.”

Carson Flores nodded, ”Yes, you calculated it right. Before you activated the Formation to seal the surroundings, even though I felt odd, I didn’t suspect much. But we’re at this point now, aren’t you going to tell me who you are?”

The man walked into the firelight, took off his hat, then peeled off a delicately crafted mask from his face, revealing his true countenance.

”You just described me with a ghostly chill, I think your description is quite accurate. Allow me to introduce myself, I am Draelor Loxley, known as Ghost Young Master...”

”Ghost Young Master?”

Carson Flores furrowed his brows, scrutinizing the pale yet handsome man before him, ”Are you related to Ghost True Sage?”

Draelor Loxley smiled, ”Ghost True Sage is my mentor.”

Carson Flores’s eyes showed clear disappointment, ”Ghost True Sage was nearly defeated under the siege of the Three Sects’ powerhouses, needing perhaps centuries to recover. He bears a grudge against me, so he sends his disciple to seek revenge?”

Draelor Loxley said proudly, ”Yes, I arrived before the sect conflict, watching you in secret. But you were always in the Three Sects’ camp, I never found an opportunity to deal with you.”

”I hid in the dark, patiently waiting. Recently the matter between you and Lorvian Randall spread everywhere, I thought you must have a significant relationship with him. Now that he plans to leave, I took this chance to send you a letter, even if you wish to verify, it’s to see if the Sea God Sect is retreating, not detailed inquiries about Lorvian Randall...”

Draelor Loxley suddenly stopped, his gaze slightly puzzled as he looked at Carson Flores, ”Why aren’t you afraid, but instead look somewhat disappointed?”

Carson Flores smiled, pointing at the surrounding Formation, ”Do you really think this Formation can hold me?”

Draelor Loxley sneered, ”Why not try, if you can escape, I’ll turn and leave!”

Carson Flores didn’t hesitate, stepping forward, yet as he stepped, the space rippled but he still remained where he was, not entering the void.

Draelor Loxley laughed heartily, ”This Formation may be small, but it can isolate spatial traversal. Even if you were stronger than me by a bit, relying on strength to wrench open the Formation gap and escape, unfortunately, your strength is too weak, only death awaits.”

Carson Flores nodded, praising, ”The Formation is indeed impressive, you’ve really gone through great lengths to capture me.”

Draelor Loxley looked at Carson Flores, who was surprisingly calm at this stage, and frowned, ”You’re about to die, why aren’t you scared?”

Carson Flores laughed, ”If I acted more afraid, would you spare my life, and let me go?”

”In your dreams!”

Draelor Loxley sneered, ”Not only you shall die, but your three women, I won’t let spare one. After you’re dead, I’ll capture them one by one, heh heh, those three women of yours are extraordinary beauties, I’ll love them well before they die...”

Carson Flores’s expression remained calm, only his gaze carried a hint of murderous intent, ”Like mentor, like disciple, you and your mentor both deserve death!”

Draelor Loxley laughed heartily, ”Yes, we all deserve death. Many wish to kill us, but we live well, whereas those who wish to kill us all perish at our hands, you’re no exception!”

Carson Flores shook his head, calmly speaking, ”At first, my immediate reaction was that those hidden in the dark wished to kill me and frame Lorvian Randall, to incite a greater conflict between Dragon Mountain Sect and Sea God Sect and create chaos to profit. But turns out it was Ghost True Sage’s disciple...”

Draelor Loxley froze, ”That’s why you were disappointed just now?”

Carson Flores nodded, ”Indeed.”

Draelor Loxley frowned, beginning to feel uneasy, ”Could it be you knew this was a trap before coming to the meeting?”

Carson Flores shook his head, ”I didn’t know, but I casually let my mentor know I was going to meet Lorvian Randall, wouldn’t you say that’s normal?”

Draelor Loxley watched Carson Flores calmly talking, the sense of foreboding grew stronger.

He suddenly lunged towards Carson Flores, shouting fiercely, ”As long as your life is in my hands, even if Floating Cloud comes, he won’t be able to do anything!”

Carson Flores didn’t resist at all, allowing Draelor Loxley to control him completely, still smiling lightly, ”Your plan is decent, but...”

Draelor Loxley held Carson Flores, a murderous glint in his eyes, ”But what?”

Carson Flores chuckled softly, ”If the moment you saw me, you activated the Formation to kill me right away, then fled immediately, perhaps you’d still have a chance to escape. But alas, you wished to recount your hiding and planning, to boast your deeds and let me feel fear before death. Maybe you forgot a saying...”

Carson Flores stared at Draelor Loxley, close enough, speaking word by word, ”Villains die from talking too much!”

Draelor Loxley’s face darkened, he dragged Carson Flores towards the entrance, yet just at this moment, a hazy figure appeared outside the Formation sealing the entrance.

The hazy figure raised a hand, as if knocking, gently tapping the Formation light curtain.

”Bang!”

The Formation instantly shattered, the air flowed, sunlight spilled, casting light on the man at the entrance.

Floating Cloud stood at the entrance, his gaze swept over Draelor Loxley, then landed on Carson Flores, his face showing a strange smile.

”Oh, you’re not dead yet?”

Carson Flores, tightly seized by Draelor Loxley, heard this and sneered, ”This guy is Ghost True Sage’s disciple Draelor Loxley, self-proclaimed Ghost Young Master, lured me in here and babbled a ton of nonsense...”
