The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 1560: Chapter 1560: I underestimated him!

”This time, during our fishing operation, we underestimated the Heavenly Alliance’s resolve and speed in gathering their elites. In such a short time, they managed to summon several Celestial Beings and a large number of other experts, even those in the late Celestial Immortal Realm...”

”Their attack was swift. Although the previously given Heavenly Thunder Roar warded off the weaker experts, it barely held back those in the late Celestial Immortal Realm. If it weren’t for Carson Flores, who remained calm in the crisis and protected Cristopher Hopkins, they might have succeeded already.”

Carson Flores was rather terrified too—what was it like being pursued by someone in the late Celestial Immortal Realm?

It was as if a primitive man were desperately fleeing from a cataclysmic disaster, knowing that one wrong step could mean utter annihilation, leaving nowhere to be buried.

Initially, he planned to hide in the Palace of Seven Beauties when danger arose, but their attack was too fast and too decisive.

Not even half a second of hesitation or delay; the strike was a sure kill!

In such circumstances, Carson Flores simply had no chance to escape into the Palace of Seven Beauties.

As for the magical treasures on Carson Flores, they were completely ineffective against the late Celestial Immortal Realm’s strength. Even his tough Sword Bone, if struck, would likely shatter inch by inch.

Ellen Stone’s subordinate reported: ”A rough tally shows that in this battle, we severely injured two Celestial Beings, one in the late Celestial Immortal Realm and one in the mid Celestial Immortal Realm. We eliminated one in the early Celestial Immortal Realm; his body was destroyed, but his Primordial Spirit escaped. As for the Golden Immortals and True Immortals, fifteen died...”

”Good!”

Ellen Stone waved her hand: ”Find a way to ascertain these people’s identities and summarize them for me.”

”Yes!”

After dismissing her subordinate, Ellen Stone turned back and said, ”Alright, the matter is resolved; we can proceed. I will lead the group along.”

”Good!”

Alfred Weaver didn’t say much more. With Ellen Stone taking action, it was the clearest statement of Cystal Palace’s stance.

This battle would surely spread across the entire Skyland Continent.

Members of the Heavenly Alliance, or those with intentions, should weigh carefully whether they can withstand the wrath of Cystal Palace before making any move.

With Ellen Stone leading the way, the journey ahead would naturally be free of danger—unless someone was tired of living.

...

Somewhere in the wilderness.

Maggie Fitzgerald, clothed in red, sat on a chair, holding a cup of wine, quietly staring into the distance.

Behind Maggie Fitzgerald stood a white-haired woman, silently, like a guard.

”Judging by the time, they should have already made their move, right?”

The white-haired woman replied, ”Perhaps they have already succeeded and are on their way back.”

Maggie Fitzgerald took a sip of her wine and gently twirled the white porcelain cup in her hand, her gaze distant: ”Not seeing her die with my own eyes, there’s still some regret.”

The white-haired woman hesitated and said, ”Why didn’t you go along, my lady? This time’s operation was bound to be foolproof. Such strength is enough to destroy any sect on this continent...”

Maggie Fitzgerald said calmly, ”I already lost face once before; I don’t want to lose face a second time.”

Though the white-haired woman thought it impossible to lose face a second time, she refrained from bringing it up again and only sighed, ”That Carson Flores, with his exceptional alchemy skills, it’s a pity to kill him.”

Maggie Fitzgerald’s gaze was cold and filled with hatred: ”Alfred Weaver’s escape from the Forbidden Land is connected to him. Regardless of being a Pill King or whatever, he must die!”

”The Barbaric Wilderness Realm’s Human Emperor, I really underestimated him!”

The white-haired woman consoled, ”The Barbaric Wilderness Realm is merely a Lower Realm. Even if he ascends to the Immortal Realm, as a mere Human Immortal, he can be wiped out with a flick. There’s no need for you to worry, my lady.”

Maggie Fitzgerald coldly responded, ”This person has such great fortune. In just a few years, he grew from an unknown person to the Human Emperor of the Barbaric Wilderness Realm. Upon entering the Immortal Realm, he obtained Bank Austin’s Heavenly Sword Inheritance. Given time, he’ll become a major threat. Someone like him needs to die to set people’s minds at ease. As for alchemy, there are plenty of people in this world who can practice it; we don’t lack him!”

After her previous failure, Maggie Fitzgerald already had people investigate Carson Flores’s background, and what they found shocked her.

That kid was actually the Human Emperor of the Barbaric Wilderness Realm!

He was the one who rescued Alfred Weaver!

He was the one who subdued her Immortal Slaves!

The destruction of her Primordial Spirit Incarnation was connected to him!

Upon ascending to the Immortal Realm, he received the Heavenly Sword Inheritance, joined the White Crane Immortal Sect, destroyed the Supreme Heaven Sect’s True Immortal, eliminated the Eastflow Ancestor, joined the Divine Brilliance Tower, and became a Pill King...

If this person doesn’t die, he will become a major threat!

After understanding Carson Flores’s background, Maggie Fitzgerald had already sentenced him to death in her heart.

Golden Light suddenly appeared on the horizon.

Maggie Fitzgerald looked up.

The white-haired woman showed a look of delight: ”They have returned!”

The Golden Light arrived in an instant, and a figure landed before Maggie Fitzgerald. It was the middle-aged man who had previously battled Ellen Stone.

The middle-aged man had just landed when he staggered, coughed up a mouthful of blood, some of which splattered onto Maggie Fitzgerald’s white table, like blooming blood-red plum blossoms.

Maggie Fitzgerald’s face changed drastically: ”What happened?”

The middle-aged man raised his head, his face pale, and there was undisguisable terror in his eyes.

”It was a trap! Cystal Palace, Ellen Stone made a move!”

”The beheading plan failed. Most of our people died, and those who escaped were all seriously injured, Jake Goodwin even lost his body...”

”Smash!”

The wine cup in Maggie Fitzgerald’s hand was crushed by her...
