The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 1354: Chapter 1354: If He Dares to Bait, I Dare to Bite

”They are so enthusiastic, it’s quite overwhelming...”

Samantha Tate patted her chest and said softly, ”Is their attitude because of Cristopher Hopkins Immortal?”

Carson Flores laughed, ”I guess it’s half and half. On one hand, it’s because of Cristopher Hopkins Immortal’s influence, and on the other hand, we are indeed excellent, considering we are only in our thirties, which is quite astonishing in the Immortal Realm.”

Shirley Miller frowned and said, ”What should we do then? If we refuse, will they turn hostile?”

”Probably not.”

Carson Flores laughed, ”They are all Great Sects after all. While they desire talented disciples, their ranks are filled with talents. They won’t lack just a few of us.”

Samantha Tate asked, ”So, should we refuse?”

Carson Flores shook his head, ”Let’s find out more about the Divine Wood Palace and the Thousand Flowers Palace later and see how things are. The strength of a Sect is important, but how they operate matters too.”

Shirley Miller nodded, ”That’s true. If it’s a Sect that acts brutally and wickedly, living among them for long might inevitably turn us into the same, although judging by their demeanor, they seem prideful yet straightforward.”

Carson Flores laughed, ”Yes, being in a united Sect feels more relaxed, like having a family. In contrast, a Sect filled with selfish infighting, just like workplace politics, is too exhausting. While competition is everywhere, noble competition is completely different from the malicious kind.”

”Alright, we just arrived in the Immortal Realm, let’s explore and learn about this world.”

The three of them got ready and strolled around the city.

The basic currency in the Immortal Realm is the Immortal Spirit Stone, commonly referred to as Immortal Stone, which is a crystal containing dense Immortal Spirit Qi, similar to the Spirit Stone in the Barbarian Wilderness Realm.

Carson Flores didn’t have a single Immortal Stone, but he wasn’t worried. He visited a magical treasure shop, sold a few decent but unnecessary magical treasures, and suddenly had money in his pocket.

Carson Flores hired a ”Know-It-All,” treated him to a meal and some drinks, and learned quite enough about the things he wanted to know.

How should I put it?

The Immortal Domains are essentially an enlarged, more sophisticated version of the Barbarian Wilderness Realm, but despite its vastness, it’s less desolate than the Barbarian Wilderness.

The Immortal Domains are vast and populous, with numerous large and small dynasties and kingdoms, each backed by a powerful Immortal Cultivation Sect.

Strictly speaking, there’s no concept of Cultivation in the Immortal Domains; they uniformly practice Immortal Cultivation.

Cultivators, cultivate to become Immortal.

The reputations of the Divine Wood Palace and the Thousand Flowers Palace are good, and they are very strong, but the Divine Wood Palace is located east of the Thunder Immortal Realm, while the Thousand Flowers Palace is in the Extreme West, very far apart.

Carson Flores smiled and made the decision for both women: ”Since we’ve confirmed that the Divine Wood Palace and the Thousand Flowers Palace have good reputations and aren’t that type of Sects, let’s go. This is an opportunity that has come our way; missing it might be regrettable later on.”

Although Shirley Miller and Samantha Tate haven’t been cultivating for long, they already have a deep understanding that strength is what matters most. Without strength, you could be trampled by others at any time.

Although they also wished to stay inseparably close to Carson Flores, they understood better that Carson Flores’s future was destined to be great. If they did not strive hard, the gap between them and him would widen gradually, and eventually, they would be separated step by step.”

The two women looked at each other and nodded in unison: ”Okay!”

Carson Flores smiled.

Everyone has grown, indeed, getting more and more accustomed to the identity of Cultivators.

”What about you then, going to Divine Sword Sect?”

Carson Flores shook his head: ”Isn’t Divine Sword Sect known for its intense internal strife? Forget it, although the Sect is strong, I don’t like Sects with internal strife. Even though I possess the Sword Bone, like Elder Zhou said, I don’t necessarily have to follow the Sword Dao.”

Shirley Miller asked with concern, ”Then where will you go?”

”I won’t join any Sect for now.”

Carson Flores laughed: ”I might stay with the White Crane Immortal Sect for a while then make a plan. Even if I don’t join any Sect in the end and become a loose immortal, it’s quite carefree...”

Samantha Tate grinned and said: ”Are you looking to check out the Heavenly Sword Peak?”

Carson Flores laughed heartily: ”To be able to make all the sword cultivators in the entire Immortal Domains bow their heads and not dare to speak against, this Heavenly Sword is no small matter. Since Elder Zhou invited me, I might as well take a look.”

”If there’s no gain, I’ll just treat it as visiting the ruins of a senior. If I’m really lucky and gain something, joining the White Crane Immortal Sect is also fine, especially since Cristopher Hopkins Immortal initially chose the White Crane Immortal Sect as his first stop, indicating they are very reliable.”

Shirley Miller laughed: ”Perhaps, that’s what Elder Zhou thought too. If you gain something, knowing your character, would you have the heart not to join the White Crane Immortal Sect?”

Carson Flores laughed: ”Fishing, huh? No problem. If they’re willing to use top-notch bait, if I really take the bait, it’s only what I deserve.”

”Besides, the White Crane Immortal Sect guards the Barbarian Wilderness Realm Gate, and we’ll have many dealings in the future. Being on good terms with the White Crane Immortal Sect is beneficial.”

Shirley Miller asked, ”Now that you’re here, aren’t you going to look for Cristopher Hopkins Immortal?”

Carson Flores laughed, ”With my current ability, I can’t be of much help, so I won’t bother her...”
