The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 1650: Chapter 1650: I’m Counting on You to Save My Life

“Where are you planning to go next?”

“Divine Wood Palace.”

Carson Flores answered briefly and asked in return, “Do we need to wait for your people here?”

Evan Foster shook his head, “No need. To be honest, I don’t know if my father will come to get the Phoenix Blood or rush over here immediately. What I said before was just a prediction of things going smoothly.”

“I’m not busy anyway, so let’s go to Divine Wood Palace. If my father comes looking for me, he will surely find a way to locate me.”

Carson Flores wasn’t surprised. Didn’t he have a means to find Little Gold before?

As the Saint Heir of the Treasure Path Sect, having a positioning magical treasure on oneself is quite normal, isn’t it?

“Are you really okay with accompanying me to Divine Wood Palace?”

Evan Foster readily replied, “I’m really okay with it. It’s rare to meet a kindred spirit; traveling the world together is quite an enjoyable thing, isn’t it? Besides, your amazing medical practice and alchemy skills, I still rely on you to save my life. I’ve said, until I am cured, I’m sticking with you and going nowhere. What could be more important than curing my illness?”

Carson Flores thought it made sense too. Evan Foster’s life had been plagued with ailments, earning him the nickname “Sickly Young Lord.” Now, upon hearing of a chance for healing, how could he let go?

In the same situation, he would chase relentlessly too.

If separated, where could you find someone?

If any mishap occurs, if the person dies or something happens, wouldn’t that dash one’s hopes of curing the illness?

“Alright, let’s go together then. Having someone along, it won’t be lonely.”

The two studied the route together, finally deciding to take a merchant ship. No need to fuss over the route themselves, with time for tea, chatting, cultivating; isn’t it simple?

The wealthy young matron Evan Foster once again directly booked the top floor of a giant flying boat, providing residence for the group.

The party leisurely flew towards the Divine Wood Palace in the eastern part of the Heavenly Profound Continent aboard the flying boat.

…

Heavenly Profound Continent, somewhere in the east.

“Bang!”

Maggie Fitzgerald slammed her palm on the table, abruptly standing up, “That Carson Flores dares to come to the Heavenly Profound Continent, nowhere else but heading east. This truly is a case of having a road to Heaven not going, but barging into Hell uninvited!”

Sitting below Maggie Fitzgerald was a middle-aged man, none other than the Heavenly Immortal Johnathan Schneider, who had followed her to assassinate Cristopher Hopkins on the Skyland Continent. Though possessing terrifying power, he pursued Cristopher Hopkins, only for Carson Flores to escape with Cristopher Hopkins right under his nose, and later got punched by Ellen Stone, sustaining heavy injuries.

“This kid sure is bold; he escaped last time by sheer luck, but surely he won’t escape this time.”

Maggie Fitzgerald’s gaze was fierce, “I originally thought he was just an insignificant flea, but I never expected he’s the Human Emperor of the Barbarian Wilderness; it was him who rescued Cristopher Hopkins, ultimately leading to Cristopher Hopkins’s resurrection and return to the Immortal Realm.”

Johnathan Schneider, unfamiliar with past events, asked in surprise, “Human Emperor?”

Maggie Fitzgerald explained, “I initially suppressed Cristopher Hopkins in the most remote Lower Realm of the Skyland Continent’s Barbaric Wilderness Realm, severing the Ascension Passage, suppressing her body in various fatal places, and sending Immortal Slaves to guard her. But this kid destroyed it all.”

Johnathan Schneider asked with surprise, “Even if he is the Human Emperor, at most he reaches Hollow Void Peak. How could he break your prohibition and defeat those Immortal Slaves with Demi Immortal power?”

Maggie Fitzgerald shook her head, “I’m not clear on the specifics, but my subordinates inquired of those who ascended from the Barbaric Wilderness. It was indeed Carson Flores who rescued Cristopher Hopkins, and it was they who killed my Lower Realm Primordial Spirit Incarnation. They cooperated with the captive True Immortal I sent down, and under their guise, passed through the Realm Gate back to the Immortal Realm.”

Johnathan Schneider frowned, “Even with Cristopher Hopkins revived, she couldn’t possibly be a match for a True Immortal. It seems there’s a secret between this kid and Cristopher Hopkins…”
