The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

”He is the True Disciple of Floating Cloud, the strongest in the Dragon Mountain Sect.”

Lucas White interjected from the side, answering the question Varric Combs was about to ask.

Varric Combs suddenly understood: ”A disciple of Floating Cloud, why not follow such a bright path, why get involved with her and oppose the Myriad Immortals Palace?”

Lucas White explained again, as Varric Combs stroked his smooth chin without a single hair.

”I see, I was wondering why she was so determined to fight against the Myriad Immortals Palace, it turns out it’s the vengeance for her teacher’s death—she is indeed someone with determination!”

Varric Combs looked at Carson Flores and said with a smile: ”Even though it’s just an incarnation, you said right in front of the Master of Path that he deserves to die, and it was delightfully said. Honestly, this guy is truly inhuman...”

”Originally, this matter had nothing to do with you, but you were dragged into this situation by her. Instead of resenting her because of her plight, you are willing to help her against the Master of Path. Now that she is on the verge of death, you could have taken this chance to escape, yet you are still trying to save her. You’ve got some spirit, boy.”

Carson Flores laughed freely and said: ”Actually, there’s no complicated reason; I simply wanted to do it, so I did it. Regardless of the outcome, as long as I have no regrets and my conscience is clear, it’s fine.”

Varric Combs nodded and laughed: ”Not bad, boy. You are quite interesting, I didn’t save you for nothing.”

Carson Flores said apologetically: ”I’m sorry for causing you to bear a grudge against the Palace of Ten Thousand Deities by trying to save someone...”

Varric Combs laughed heartily: ”Didn’t you just say it? If you want to do it, just do it. I saved her not because I wanted something from you or her, but simply because I could save her, so I did.”

”I even stole Cyrveth McCarty’s Heaven-devouring Altar, that old rascal is probably going to be furious. Anyway, offending one is offending, offending two doesn’t make much difference. Besides, I also want to see their reaction, haha!”

”I really can’t beat them, but they also have to be able to find me and catch me. If things get tough, I’ll just go to another Immortal Domain. The Immortal Domains are vast; surely, there’s somewhere to go!”

Carson Flores’ eyes lit up: ”You took down the Heaven-devouring Altar, Elder?”

Varric Combs boastfully said: ”Who am I? I’m the Saint of Thieves! When the Saint of Thieves takes action, how can he return empty-handed?”

Carson Flores complimented: ”Previously, Master Zane of the Cave talked to me about the various Quasi-Saints of the Ten Thousand Immortals Domain, highly praising you. He said you are the top in thievery in the Immortal Realm. Now that I’ve seen it, indeed, it’s miraculous.”

Varric Combs chuckled, and instead of continuing to boast, he changed the topic: ”The Spirit Buddha Pill is remarkable; it can keep a dying person alive and gradually heal the severely injured. However, Master Zane’s injury is not a mere serious injury; even if the Spirit Buddha Pill can keep her from dying, it won’t restore her...”

Carson Flores remained calm and not disheartened; he was a healer, though not exceptionally skilled, he could still assess injuries.

The Spirit Buddha Pill could keep Snow Zane’s life, but it couldn’t heal her because her injuries were too severe.

For Carson Flores, this result was satisfying.

Recovery?

As long as she’s alive, there’s always hope.

The Immortal Realm is vast, with countless miraculous items; as long as she’s alive, there’s always a chance to find a cure.

”Keeping her alive is good, the rest can be treated slowly.”

Lucas White asked: ”What are your plans next?”

Carson Flores thought for a moment and honestly shook his head: ”I’m not sure, I’ll see how the Palace of Ten Thousand Deities responds to this matter, and then decide. If there’s nothing, I’ll continue handling my personal affairs. I came here for them initially, but meeting the Cave Master interrupted it...”

Suddenly, Varric Combs spoke: ”Boy, if you’re not in a hurry, why not help me with a task?”

Carson Flores was slightly surprised, the Saint of Thieves asking for help?

Though his strength was quite impressive, it was only when compared to most cultivators; compared to someone of the Saint of Thieves’ level, he was nothing. What could he possibly help with?

Though puzzled, Carson Flores didn’t hesitate to express his willingness: ”Elder, please instruct me.”

He owed Varric Combs a great favor, and since the favor was asked, regardless of whether he could accomplish it, he at least had to show his willingness.

Varric Combs laughed: ”Don’t be nervous, I’m asking for your help mainly to borrow your incarnation abilities. How many incarnations can you have simultaneously?”

Carson Flores replied: ”The stronger the incarnations, the fewer the number; if it’s Great Land strength, probably around ten or eight, if it’s ordinary Immortal Level, then more...”

Varric Combs’ eyes lit up: ”You can sense the incarnations and check their environment, right?”

Carson Flores honestly responded: ”I can sense, but to specifically check, I’d need to use some related spells to see the incarnation as an anchor for my magic; like the Water Mirror Technique, but if the incarnation dies, then it’s impossible.”

”Enough!”

Varric Combs slapped Carson Flores on the shoulder and laughed heartily: ”Boy, if you’re not in a hurry, come with me to the Land of Chaotic Streams for a trip; I need your incarnation abilities to scout for me...”
