The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 1187: Chapter 1187: Clearly Here Yet Claiming to Be Not, You’re Not Being Honest

Otto Parrish didn’t want any compensation; he only sought revenge, and Carson Flores had already accomplished that for him.

The other party clearly wasn’t truly willing to compensate him either; everything was done for the face of the Human Emperor Carson Flores.

Carson Flores and Otto Parrish were politely escorted out of the Sect by Harvey Goodwin.

For Harvey Goodwin, even though it was somewhat embarrassing, after all, that was the Human Emperor. Being a little polite, what’s the harm in that, and who could say he was wrong?

”East Mountain City, please lead the way.”

Otto Parrish respectfully pointed the direction, filled with immense gratitude toward Carson Flores.

Compared to the plunderer Angelo Howard, he even hated Riley Curry more for betraying them.

With his strength and the strength of his Sect, he did not dare to trouble the Huihui Sect, after all, without sufficient power, words are useless.

Carson Flores was powerful and influential; even the Sect Master, when he came out, was respectfully polite, wasn’t he?

His emotions were quite complex; if it weren’t for the Jade Phoenix Grass, they would not have encountered this calamity. However, it was precisely because of the Jade Phoenix Grass that Carson Flores took a stand for him.

Otherwise, even if it were the Human Emperor and there was no relationship between them, why would he bother with these affairs? As Riley Curry said, in the Cultivation Realm, the law of the jungle is everywhere; this is perfectly normal.

The Flying Boat traveled on, eventually arriving at East Mountain City.

Carson Flores didn’t barge in forcibly because the Barrier of a city is not so easy to blast open.

They followed the normal procedure, paid a certain amount of Spirit Stones as a toll, and smoothly entered East Mountain City, found out where the City Lord’s Mansion was, and the two headed straight there.

Meanwhile, Angelo Howard was in the back garden pavilion of the City Lord’s Mansion, drinking with a guest.

The guest was an old man whose nose seemed slightly odd, quite long, somewhat droopy, and able to contract and move—it was an Elephant Demon in human form.

The old man bore an arrogant demeanor and said indifferently, ”City Lord Angelo, have you made up your mind?”

Angelo Howard chuckled, ”I have made up my mind. Once their great army arrives, I will open the city gates to welcome them, allowing your forces to take East Mountain City without lifting a finger.”

The old man’s expression softened slightly, ”For you, City Lord Angelo, to have made this decision, that’s very good. In fact, our Demon Emperor is merciful. His desire is to conquer the world, and if there must be combat, it should be amongst the Cultivators. Why involve the common populace?”

”Rest assured, as long as you submit to our Demon Race, you will still be the City Lord. Just fulfill the tasks we assign to you, and we will ensure your safety.”

Angelo Howard bowed, ”Then I thank Mr. Harvey in advance.”

The old man waved his hand, ”Since you have made your decision, you should take this pill.”

He produced a red Elixir and placed it in front of Angelo Howard.

Angelo Howard revealed a nervous look and asked cautiously, ”Mr. Harvey, what is this?”

The old man replied, ”Demon Heart Pill, it contains demon poison; you need to take the antidote regularly, otherwise, you will grow fur all over your body, to put it simply, you will take on the appearance of Demonic Beasts.”

Angelo Howard looked scared, ”The antidote...”

The old man answered dispassionately, ”As long as you follow orders, you won’t lack the antidote, and after taking the antidote ten times, the Demon Heart Pill will become ineffective. We are not trying to control you indefinitely, just to ensure your sincerity during this period, and not to be deceitful.”

Angelo Howard felt somewhat relieved, ”Alright, I will take it. Please take care of me, Mr. Harvey!”

Angelo Howard picked up the Demon Heart Pill and swallowed it down; after all, he had no other choice.

With the Great Demon right in front of him, squashing him would be as easy as turning his hand. The other party’s choice of this method clearly indicated other plans.

To survive, he had no choice but to submit. It was not so bad to take refuge with the Demon Nation. After all, among the Demon Race, there were quite a few from the Human Race who also lived comfortably, right?
