The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 2368: Chapter 2368: Are You Bargaining With Me?

On the deserted island, Ghost True Sage fell from mid-air, covered in blood, his body missing more than half, looking utterly miserable.

At this moment, Ghost True Sage was true to his name, like a fierce ghost crawling out of Hell.

He first took out a bottle of potion and poured it on his wounds, then swallowed an elixir, sat cross-legged, and began to heal.

The bloodied wounds quickly healed, missing body tissues rapidly regenerated, and in no time, the shattered half of his body had completely grown back and was restored to its original state.

Great Land Immortals possessed terrifying recovery abilities, as long as their hearts weren’t completely shattered and their heads weren’t utterly obliterated, bodily injuries could quickly recover—though it required consuming their essence.

Although Ghost True Sage’s body had recovered, his face was pale as paper, like a dead person’s, utterly devoid of color.

Thinking about the recent experience, Ghost True Sage’s ghostly aura surged, and his eyes brimmed with murderous intent.

He actually failed!

Failed at the hands of a weakling!

This is simply the shame of a lifetime.

He sat cross-legged on the ground, looked at the dark night sky, contemplated for a few minutes, then formed a spell with a hand gesture.

”Come see me immediately!”

The spell turned into a beam of light and vanished instantly into thin air; Ghost True Sage wore a gloomy expression, closed his eyes, and quietly waited.

In the dead of night, a figure appeared on the deserted island like a ghostly apparition, quickly spotting the cross-legged Ghost True Sage and swiftly descended from the air.

The newcomer was a handsome young man; upon seeing Ghost True Sage, he immediately knelt respectfully and performed a bowing ritual.

”Master, you’re here!”

Ghost True Sage looked at the young man ahead, wasted no words, and coldly waved his hand; instantly a visual image appeared in the air showing Carson Flores and Selah Ellison cooking together.

”Do you remember them?”

The young man scrutinized them for a few moments and nodded decisively: ”I remember, Master, what are your orders?”

Ghost True Sage said coldly: ”They are in Moon City, go kill that boy for me; you can do as you please with the three women but kill them all in the end.”

The young man was astonished; with the master’s strength, isn’t killing people a trivial task? Why summon me from so far away?

”Yes, Master!”

The young man readily agreed, then cautiously asked: ”Master, did these people provoke you?”

Ghost True Sage said coldly: ”Don’t underestimate this boy; he has a tower that boasts impressive defensive power, blocking my casual blow. Also, he is closely related to the Three Sects of Eastern Radiance, able to instantly summon their top-tier experts to surround and slaughter me...”

The young man was stunned, somewhat apprehensively asking: ”This boy’s strength, is it Great Land Immortal?”

Ghost True Sage was silent for two seconds, his expression seemed gritted.

”Profound Immortal, perhaps in the Illusion-Breaking or Mystic Elephant stage, you can easily kill him if you catch him off guard.”

The young man was again shocked, a Great Land Fairy in the Illusion-Breaking Realm blocking the master’s strike? Even a casual strike should not be withstandable by a Great Land Fairy.

This boy has some skills!

Especially since he can summon the Three Sects’ leaders single-handedly, that’s not something anyone can do.

Only knowing the opponent’s strength is so low, the young man felt reassured again, considering the other is in the open, he in the covert, finding a way to approach and then taking him by surprise, the success rate would naturally be a hundred percent.

”Yes, Master, I will go now.”

Ghost True Sage coldly eyed the young man: ”I have exposed myself, arousing the Moon God Sect’s vigilance, so I’m not suited to act directly. After you kill them, bring me back that tower.”

The young man agreed without hesitation: ”Yes, Master, will accomplish the task.”

Ghost True Sage waved his hand: ”Go.”

The young man didn’t move but fidgeted with his hands, quietly said: ”Master, it’s been years since we met, my poison is barely suppressible, could you grant me an antidote first?”

Ghost True Sage’s eyes fixed on the young man, ghostly fire flickered, filled with icy chill: ”Are you bargaining with me?”

The young man hurriedly shook his hand: ”No, no, just worried about this matter recently, now seeing Master, instinctually wanting to resolve my issue first, after all, if I fight too fiercely, it might trigger the poison prematurely...”

Ghost True Sage fetched an elixir, sliced it casually, one half fell into his hand, the other flew towards the young man.

”Take half to momentarily suppress your internal poison, once you kill them and retrieve that tower, I’ll give you the other half.”

The young man seized the elixir, tossed it directly in his mouth, bowed: ”Thank you, Master, I head to Moon God Sect now, will complete your assignment, please await my good news!”
