The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 2241: Chapter 2241: Helpers? Why Does This Feel So Strange

As soon as Carson Flores appeared, he was noticed by Orion Watson.

Having practiced the Moon Concealment Art, Carson could perfectly simulate any realm, avoiding the revelation of his true strength without physical contact.

Carson flew into the valley. Icy Watson turned her head, saw Carson, and her eyes lit up, ”Kyson, you’ve arrived.”

Carson nodded and saluted Orion, ”Outer Sect Disciple Kyson Howell greets you, Master Ancestor.”

Kyson Howell was just an Outer Sect Disciple, considered a third-generation disciple in today’s Green Bird City, while Orion Watson was a first-generation disciple still alive, hence a Master Ancestor in rank.

Orion cast a glance at Carson, nodded slightly, and said nothing more.

At the moment Orion’s gaze landed on him, Carson felt quite tense. Even though he had employed the Moon Concealment Art, he still worried about being seen through, after all, the other was a Great Land Immortal.

Fortunately, Orion didn’t show any suspicion, and his gaze simply passed over, allowing Carson to completely relax.

Icy approached enthusiastically and asked, ”Kyson, was your journey smooth?”

Carson nodded, ”I followed the Sect Master’s advice, took the high-altitude route. Though I encountered magical beasts twice, it was thrilling but not dangerous.”

Icy smiled, ”That’s good. Next, we just need to stay calm, follow my grandfather, and heed his instructions.”

Carson nodded seriously, ”Alright... thank you, Junior Sister; otherwise... those magical beasts are too fierce.”

Icy agreed, ”These magical beasts are like lunatics, only knowing how to kill and having no rationale... Oh, do you know these three brothers, Kyson?”

Carson looked up and swept his gaze over the three, ”I know them.”

The three looked at Carson with discreet envy, and a hint of mild rivalry, but on the surface, they greeted him amicably.

Envy?

Could it be that the three are just backup options, unlike Gabriel Lozano and Kyson Howell who have already entered Indoor?

Icy plays quite the field, doesn’t she?

On second thought, who wouldn’t with her background?

Icy isn’t just strikingly beautiful, but with a strong background, which man wouldn’t want her, hoping to soar to great heights?

After sitting for a while, Carson whispered to Icy, ”What are we supposed to do now?”

Icy whispered back, ”Rest, and then we’re off to find the Harmony Spring.”

Carson’s eyes immediately lit up; coming here was indeed the right choice!

After thinking it through, he asked, ”Are those three called here by you as well?”

Icy chuckled and whispered, ”Yes, why, are you jealous?”

Carson didn’t answer, but his expression said it all.

Icy softly reassured, ”Don’t be jealous; they might like me, but they haven’t even held my hand, let alone anything else. I have given my heart and soul to you, so what’s there to be jealous of?”

Carson appeared relieved, ”If there’s nothing, why bring them along?”

Icy replied, ”My grandfather said that exploring the Harmony Spring requires some helpers, so I called them too. Anyway, with my grandfather around, he’ll ensure our safety.”

Helpers for exploring the Harmony Spring?

Carson pondered inwardly, why would a Great Land Immortal need Hollow Void Realm cultivators as helpers?

Such a disparity in strength; what can a Hollow Void do to aid a Great Land Immortal?

Peculiar.

If real help was needed, given Orion Watson’s status, wouldn’t it be better to call a bunch of Inner Sect Disciples, Heavenly Immortals?

Intuition told Carson there might be something amiss here; he became increasingly cautious.

Carson probed further, ”How can we help your grandfather, given such a difference in strength?”

Icy replied sweetly, ”That’s what my grandfather said. He could find stronger helpers, but this is to help me. If we find the Harmony Spring, you and I can all be promoted to Inner Sect Disciples with such merit.”

”Originally, my grandfather didn’t intend to bring you all; it was my plea that made him agree, so you should thank me instead.”

Carson’s suspicions weren’t dispelled, but he showed gratitude on the surface, ”Of course, thank you. Once we’re out of the Secret Realm, whatever you say goes.”

Icy’s eyes glistened like water, whispering, ”I want you by my side, three days and nights without leaving the bed!”

Uh...

Could it be?

Is this woman that formidable?

Could it be she practiced some special dual cultivation technique?

Or perhaps it’s just a teasing tactic?

Contemplating this, Carson confidently agreed, ”No problem, as you wish.”

While they whispered and giggled, the other three men looked on jealously.

After a long time, the seated Orion rose and said indifferently, ”Let’s go!”
