The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 622: Chapter 622: Do you see? This is a true Cultivator!_1

Carson Flores’s nonchalant demeanor and Leah Frost’s utter disregard were like slaps in the face to Emilio Compton, brutally struck across his cheek.

Emilio Compton’s heart was about to explode with rage.

He snorted in disdain, ”A mere mortal dares to insult me like this!”

”Alright, since you think I don’t dare to kill, then I’ll just kill one to show you...”

As he spoke, Emilio Compton’s actions were decisive—he pulled his long sword with a clean, forceful tug, preparing to swiftly dispatch Leah Frost.

However, when Emilio Compton pulled on the sword, it remained immovable in his hand. Concurrently, his vision blurred, and Leah Frost disappeared from in front of him.

Emilio Compton looked up in shock, staring at Kaenu Hail who had grabbed the blade, then at Leah Frost now standing behind Kaenu Hail, ”Mr. Hail, what is the meaning of this?”

Kaenu Hail released his grip on the sword, smiling slightly, ”Carson Flores is standing right there, and the Water-Fire Mirror as well. If you can kill Carson Flores, why bother killing Leah Frost? If you kill Leah Frost, how will you face a furious Carson Flores? Or do you think, in the current state of affairs, the Hoffman Family will still obey your commands and continue to go after the Frost Family Members?”

Kaenu Hail’s words were smooth and warm, as if chatting among friends.

Emilio Compton was stunned, his expression quickly turning ugly.

Kaenu Hail’s seemingly advisory words felt like an even heavier slap, brutally smacking across his face.

Don’t you want to deal with Carson Flores?

Carson Flores is here.

Don’t you want to take back the Water-Fire Mirror?

The Water-Fire Mirror is on Carson Flores’s person.

You refrain from killing Carson Flores, but use his relative to threaten him into handing over the Water-Fire Mirror. What is this?

Impotent fury?

Is it because you admit you can’t kill me, Carson Flores?

You’re supposedly a Cultivator from the Blessed Land of Cave Heavens. If you can’t even kill a Carson Flores, what will everyone think of you?

Are you still the high and mighty Cultivator?

You keep promising to lead others into the Cave Heavens, bestowing them the chance to become Human Immortals, but even if they gain that chance and become just like you, they still can’t handle a Carson Flores. Doesn’t such a Cultivator lose face?

Emilio Compton fixed his gaze on Kaenu Hail, ”Mr. Hail, by saying this, do you mean you won’t help me anymore?”

Kaenu Hail responded with a smile, ”I’ve said before, I came here as a spectator. I also share a meal’s worth of fate with Carson Flores. I am not taking sides.”

Emilio Compton’s eyes swiftly scanned Hank Hoffman, who looked hopeful but also betrayed a hint of inexplicable grief and anger.

You’re a Cultivator, yet you won’t fly with us and want us to be cannon fodder. How is that reasonable?

Emilio Compton saw the multitude before him and realized he couldn’t rely on anyone, particularly since their looks of admiration and yearning had turned into doubt and scorn.

Emilio Compton turned around and said coldly, ”Fine, if you want me to take action, then I will do so as you wish.”

With a flick of his wrist, a thumb-sized elixir appeared in his hand. He swallowed it without hesitation, and in the blink of an eye, the Spiritual Energy around his body became concentrated and abundant.

Carson Flores had read through elixir scriptures before and recognized the elixir at a glance.

Gathering qi pill.

This was an elixir made from heaven and earth’s spiritual essences absorbed by special treasures, supplemented with other ingredients, and uniquely refined. Once ingested, it released a continuous stream of Spiritual Energy that replenished a Cultivator’s own.

A Cultivator’s battle involves constant depletion of Spiritual Energy. The fight goes on, but what to do when Spiritual Energy is exhausted? Take medicine, of course. Swallowing a Gathering qi pill is like refueling a plane mid-air to extend its range.

The Gathering qi pill was not cheap; it was usually used in fierce and prolonged battles or in places where Spiritual Energy was scarce to replenish a Cultivator’s Spiritual Energy and allow them to continue fighting.

In the mortal world, where Spiritual Energy is scarce, many tactics of Cultivators cannot be employed, but with the Gathering qi pill, a Cultivator gains the necessary foundation to wield their skills.

Emilio Compton, with a wave of his hand, summoned a hiltless, double-pointed Flying Sword in front of him. It trembled slightly, appearing utterly mystical.

All the surrounding Cultivators watching were dazzled, their eyes shining with astonishment.

Is this the true power of a Cultivator?

Sword control?

With a face as cold as steel, Emilio Compton pointed like he was directing a sword, and pointed directly at Carson Flores.

Following Emilio Compton’s motion, the Flying Sword shot towards Carson Flores like a white line, nearly instantly.

Given it was a Cultivator’s technique and the scarcity of Spiritual Energy in the area, Carson Flores dared not face it head-on and dodged to the side. The sword passed in front of him, carrying an intense chill.

The corner of Emilio Compton’s lips curled up into a sneer.

Dodge?

How many times can you dodge?

With the Flying Sword’s sharp points and edges, it can wound from any direction, flipping and turning in the air as desired. How can you, a person, be more agile than a Flying Sword?

DIE!

The Flying Sword whirred back and forth in the air, and for a moment, Carson Flores seemed somewhat flustered, narrowly escaping injury several times.

Emilio Compton sensed the awe and adoration in the eyes of the spectators and felt an immense satisfaction.

Do you see now?

This is a Cultivator!

Come at me with your physical brawls and your techniques?

I can kill at a distance with ease!

At the moment when Emilio Compton’s focus subtly lapsed, Carson Flores suddenly turned to the side, his hands now wielding the Three Provinces Sword passed down from Wilson Weiss.

As the Flying Sword swooped past the front, Carson Flores gripped the sword with both hands and struck down fiercely, landing a precise blow onto the Flying Sword.
