The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 865: Chapter 865: I’m Yours, They Are Outsiders

Threads of Water Essence infused into the Life Essence Pearl, and the vitality transformed by the pearl surged significantly.

The wounds on Carson Flores’s body visibly healed before one’s eyes.

Scabs formed and fell off.

Carson Flores returned to his original appearance, and even more, due to the new skin, he looked a few shades fairer.

”Brother, your face has gotten fairer, and you’ve become more handsome!”

Carson Flores joked, ”A fair face, maybe I can become a pretty boy.”

Samantha Tate laughed, ”There’s no pretty boy that amazing. By the way, this pearl... it kind of looks like the Life Essence Pearl of the Cave from Heavenly Mountain Cave, doesn’t it?”

Carson Flores openly answered, ”Yes, it’s the one.”

Samantha Tate asked in surprise, ”How did you get it? That’s really amazing.”

Carson Flores briefly recounted the tale, and Samantha Tate’s eyes sparkled, ”You’re really lucky. Not only did you get a Heavenly Mountain token, but you also got the Life Essence Pearl. You better keep it well hidden, or if the people from Heavenly Mountain Cave see it, I’m afraid they might come to claim it.”

Carson Flores smiled, ”I’ll be careful. Besides, I found it, I neither stole it nor robbed it. They won’t find it easy to take it back, and my master and senior brothers won’t necessarily agree to it either.”

Samantha Tate smiled, ”It’s best not to expose it, to avoid trouble.”

Carson Flores teased, ”You are now the future star of Heavenly Mountain, aren’t you bending the elbow outwards here?”

Samantha Tate threw herself into Carson Flores’s arms and kissed him firmly. After a long while, she raised her head with a blushed face, ”I am yours; they are the outsiders.”

Carson Flores embraced Samantha Tate, smiling, ”Good!”

Samantha Tate pouted, ”When will you be willing to sweep me off my feet, huh? Aren’t you as a man in a hurry? Brother, aren’t you waiting for me to make a move on you?”

Carson Flores was slightly embarrassed, ”I originally planned to see you first, then meet your sister, and after thoroughly communicating with her, be truly together...”

Samantha Tate uttered an ”Oh,” nodding her head slightly to show her understanding, ”Alright then. Anyway, I’ve now reached Nascent Soul Great Perfection, and I have the ability to travel the world. I can go find you or my sister, and don’t have to stay in Heavenly Mountain all the time.”

Carson Flores smiled, ”Good, let’s first find a nearby city and ask around to see where we are now.”

Just as the two were about to soar into the sky, Carson Flores’s expression changed and he suddenly grabbed Samantha Tate’s hand.

”Hide!”

The two swiftly ducked behind a clump of bushes, peering through the gaps in the trees.

On a hill ahead, a giant figure suddenly appeared. Standing at least ten meters tall, it was an immensely bulky Single-Horned Rhino, its horn as shiny as black crystal and more intimidating than a battering ram.

It was running!

The ground thundered like a drum, an awe-inspiring presence.

”It’s so big, what level of strength must it possess?”

Carson Flores shook his head, his face tense, whispering softly, ”Shush! Conceal your presence; don’t make a sound... It’s fleeing!”

Fleeing?

Samantha Tate widened her eyes, shocked. If such a ferocious Demonic Beast was fleeing, what could be hunting it?

The next second, the answer was revealed.

A Giant Eagle emerged from behind a mountain in the distance. The eagle soared from behind the peak, wings spread wide, eclipsing the sun!

The Giant Eagle swooped down from the sky, its immense wings cloaking the daylight, as if darkness suddenly descended.

The Giant Eagle swooped over the Single-Horned Rhino, extending its massive, sharp talons, and viciously grabbed the body of the rhino. With a flurry of its wings amidst the howling winds, it lifted the Single-Horned Rhino into the air.

As the Giant Eagle skimmed low over the hills, flying right above Carson Flores and Samantha Tate, it looked down at them.

That glance made both of them’s scalp tingle with fear.

Clearly, the Giant Eagle had noticed their presence but simply chose not to bother with them.

Scary!

Such a huge and fierce rhino was powerless against those talons; what kind of strength was that?

The Giant Eagle quickly disappeared from view.

Samantha Tate patted her chest, her face revealing her scare, ”That was an eagle? It was terrifying, wasn’t it?”

Carson Flores forced a smile, ”It seems we’ve come to an extraordinary place. In most areas of the Barbarian Wilderness, such fierce beings aren’t common. We need to be careful.”

Samantha Tate nodded, ”It seems we can’t fly high. Otherwise, if something like that Giant Eagle took an interest in us, we’d probably be done for.”

”Yeah, we’ll walk close to the ground, heading east,” Carson Flores suggested.

”Okay!”

The two emerged from their hiding and flew ahead. Not far out, a massive cliff appeared before them. Carson Flores looked down and his expression immediately became a bit stunned.

”What is that?”

Below the cliff was a vast valley, and a colossal White Jade Platform lay tilted and fallen within it. The platform was adorned with countless bronze columns engraved with huge Runes, and within the circle of the bronze columns, there was a massive Array.

The Array wasn’t active, and the entire White Jade Platform was covered in dust, appearing dilapidated and ancient.

The entire valley, including the central White Jade Platform, was bisected by a chasm that was of unknown depth and length.

The edge of the White Jade Platform at the fissure was smooth as glass, while the chasm was filled with sky-reaching Sword Qi that was captivating, so much so that even a glance could quicken one’s heartbeat and make one feel as if their eyes could be blinded.

Carson Flores’s face showed shock, he murmured to himself, ”Was this cleaved by a single sword strike?”
