The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 824: Chapter 824: Is Your Spiritual Spring for Sale?

Carson Flores distanced himself from Harmony Eye and then stayed in a valley until daybreak.

It wasn’t that Carson didn’t want to fly directly back, but everything he had encountered on his way there told him that the path in was not a straightforward one, and the path back was the same.

Who made him just a cultivator at the Golden Core Stage?

Not to mention the Hollow Void Stage of the eldest disciple brother, if only he had the Divinity Transformation Stage like his senior sister Delaney Hunter, he wouldn’t be feeling so timid now.

He had already taken all the advantages he could, so he had to put safety first and play it steady.

Carson moved out little by little, meticulously observing each area for a long time, making sure there was no danger before moving to the next spot.

It took him a full three days, but Carson finally left Harmony Hollow and returned to the starting point of his journey.

Delaney Hunter and Benson Bernard obviously wouldn’t be here, so Carson headed straight for the place where the human cultivators had gathered before.

Innumerable Flying Boats were still gathered at the location, and Carson’s arrival immediately attracted everyone’s attention. Quickly, quite a few people approached him.

Kash Lam exclaimed with surprise, ”Carson, you’re still alive!”

Carson was stunned for a moment, then asked with delight, ”Did you see my senior brother and sister?”

If it wasn’t for his senior brother and sister, why would Kash Lam know that he had encountered danger?

Lainey Dragon responded excitedly, ”They and many other important figures entered Harmony Hollow, heading for the colorful divine light. According to what your senior brother said, it’s possible that the Tomb of the Demon Emperor lies beneath that colorful divine light.”

The Tomb of the Demon Emperor?

Carson asked in shock, ”The colorful divine light is being emitted from the Tomb of the Demon Emperor?”

”Yes!”

Carson was immediately quite confused. If they had discovered the Tomb of the Demon Emperor, why would his senior brother and sister go in directly to explore and look for various treasures, instead of allowing other sects’ big shots to join them?

Kenzo Conley of the Great Sects seemed to understand Carson’s confusion, ”Your senior brother went to the site of the colorful divine light to check it out, but he couldn’t open the tomb alone, and what’s more, many Great Demons have gathered inside, all trying to figure out how to enter the Tomb of the Demon Emperor...”

”With time being of the essence, your senior brother returned to invite several sect bigwigs to discuss the situation, after which they entered Harmony Hollow together. It’s said he set a condition that after opening the Tomb of the Demon Emperor, he would have first pick of three items as a reward for leading them in.”

”Although those big shots were not pleased, they knew that without your senior brother’s help, they wouldn’t dare to enter Harmony Hollow, let alone explore the Tomb of the Demon Emperor. So they all agreed to the terms.”

Carson’s eyes widened, ”If the Emperor Sovereign Scripture is truly inside as rumored, they would be willing to give it up?”

Kash Lam explained, ”If the Emperor Sovereign Scripture is found, your senior brother can keep it in his care, but others who participate will have the right to visit and study it.”

Carson then understood. It made sense. The idea that this group would willingly give up the Emperor Sovereign Scripture without any conditions was practically impossible.

”What about you guys, aren’t you planning to go in and take a look?”

Kash Lam made a wry face, ”Your senior brother didn’t bring many Spiritual Springs, not enough to fulfill the needs of too many people. But with the urgent situation and the Demon Race eyeing us greedily, they rushed to the location of the colorful divine light right away, without the time to fetch more Spiritual Springs. So even if we want to take a look inside, we can’t. After all, without Spiritual Springs, we can’t resist the strange poison.”

Terry from the Demon Sun Sect asked, ”Your senior brother said you disappeared near the Spiritual Spring, fearing you might have been harmed by Demonic Beasts. How did you escape?”

Carson’s mind raced.

Spiritual Springs?

I have Spiritual Springs, and plenty of them!

Of course, he wanted to enter Harmony Hollow, but he was weak on his own. If he encountered fierce Demonic Beasts, the likelihood of death would be high. However, the people in front of him were powerful.

Each and every one of these individuals was a proud talent. Even if they didn’t match up to those of the Hollow Void Stage powerhouses, each one of them had combat power above Divinity Transformation, as well as all sorts of special talents.

Apart from these, there were countless experts from the Great Sects—after all, tens of thousands of cultivators had come to this place this time.

If all these fierce people went inside, then following them in would significantly reduce the danger. With the eldest disciple brother and a host of bigwigs up front, following behind wouldn’t be a big problem.

Carson made up his mind instantly, ”I went to fetch Spiritual Springs and got targeted by a Demonic Beast. I hid for several days before I found an opportunity to slip away.”

Kash Lam’s eyes lit up, ”You have Spiritual Springs?”

Carson grinned slightly, ”Yes, I do. I have plenty of Spiritual Springs!”

The eyes of everyone around shone in an instant.

Who would want to miss such an opportunity to explore the Tomb of the Demon Emperor?

Kenzo Conley asked eagerly, ”Are you selling your Spiritual Springs?”

Carson smiled, ”Yes, I’m selling. But for you guys, it’s free. I only have one condition: if I meet danger, I hope you virtuosos will lend me a hand, and not just stand by and watch...”
