The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Carson Flores widened his eyes in surprise: ”The Space Turbulence Technique, that’s the divine skill that trapped you for six thousand years?”

”Exactly!”

Varric Combs was ecstatic: ”With this Space Turbulence Technique, hehe, whoever tries to mess with me in the future, I’ll give them a big surprise.”

Carson Flores laughed: ”Like the Hall Master?”

Varric Combs rubbed his chin with his hand: ”He’s very strong. I’m not sure if the Space Turbulence Technique can trap him, but even if he can break free, it certainly won’t be in a short time.”

Carson Flores laughed: ”Senior, you’re already skilled in Space Divine Powers; this technique is perfect for you. Congratulations, congratulations!”

Varric Combs generously handed the rubbings to Carson Flores: ”This piece of rubbings contains unique Pathist Charm, you can directly visualize and learn from it, and it should not be a one-time thing. We can learn it together if you have the ability.”

Carson Flores’s eyes lit up: ”Thank you, senior.”

Carson Flores felt a surge of anticipation in his heart. Although his Life-bound Magic Treasure isn’t of the Space Series, he possesses the Dragon Mountain Cloud Dream Art!

Ben Singleton’s Carefree Wander divine skill is a Space Divine Power, and initially, he could only perform Ground Shrinking Technique, unable to fully comprehend Carefree Wander. However, after obtaining the Dragon Mountain Cloud Dream Art, he repeatedly studied and deeply understood it, thus mastering Carefree Wander, making his escape ability vastly superior compared to before.

Carefree Wander is very powerful, but Carson Flores’s limited strength prevents him from fully exploiting its power. Of course, the main reason is that his enemies are too strong.

None of Carson Flores’s opponents are weaker than him; they are either Great Land Prime Immortals or Quasi-Saints. With such a vast difference in strength, how could he escape?

Carefree Wander can traverse space, but when someone uses their own power or magical treasures to confine space, Carson Flores is like a fish trapped under a cover. The fish wants to swim through the gaps, but lacks the strength. But what if a big shark were trapped instead?

When Carson Flores reaches Great Land Prime Immortal, or even Superior Grade Great Land Prime Immortal, very few people in this world will be able to challenge him when he uses Carefree Wander.

Previously, Master of Path used the Azure Cauldron to cover the entire space. He himself admitted that the barrier of Azure Cauldron could withstand two full-powered attacks from Snow Zane, but Varric Combs didn’t even strike the barrier and simply ”slipped” right in.

That’s skill, that’s power.

Varric Combs laughed heartily: ”With this Space Turbulence Technique, this trip was worth it; my six thousand years of suffering weren’t in vain!”

Studying and learning the Space Turbulence Technique on the rubbings clearly isn’t something that can be comprehended immediately. Carson Flores gave it a brief look, then returned the rubbings to Varric Combs.

Varric Combs swept his Divine Sense over other objects and frowned: ”Since he fell here, then where is his Life-bound Magic Treasure?”

Varric Combs flew up to the old man’s corpse and pointed a finger at the old man’s forehead.

After a moment, Varric Combs withdrew his finger and murmured softly: ”The Sea of Consciousness is shattered, and there’s no trace of the Life-bound Magic Treasure. Could it be that someone took it?”

Carson Flores asked: ”Senior, how did he die?”

Varric Combs answered: ”He suffered a fatal wound and died from it. He probably wasn’t a Quasi-Saint of the Ten Thousand Immortals Domain. He should have been injured and fled all the way here, piercing through space, and with his remaining strength, set up this Space Land of Chaotic Streams to protect himself. However, his wounds were too severe, and he ultimately didn’t make it, dying here...”

Carson Flores widened his eyes in surprise: ”He was supposed to be very strong, with Space-based magic particularly adept at fleeing. How could he be gravely injured? How powerful must his opponent be?”

Varric Combs pursed his lips: ”There’s great variation in strength between Quasi-Saints. Look at me, I would never dare to fight against Master of Path; if we truly faced off, he could probably crush me with one hand, but as long as I don’t fight him, he can’t do anything to me.”

Carson Flores nodded silently: ”Even at Quasi-Saint level, it’s still unstable.”

Varric Combs laughed heartily: ”As long as a Quasi-Saint doesn’t want to die, they can usually escape. It’s rare for a Quasi-Saint to die in battle unless the gap in power is immense, where they are forcibly suppressed or chased and worn down. More often, it’s because a Quasi-Saint refuses to retreat or flee.”

”His identity is unclear, it’s hard to judge. However, since even his Life-bound Magic Treasure is gone, it might have been seized or destroyed by someone, indicating his opponent was incredibly strong.”

”But you see, this doesn’t really concern us. If these things hadn’t happened to him, how would I have obtained the Space Turbulence Technique?”

Carson Flores’ eyes scanned the other objects: ”There’s still plenty of stuff; let’s see if there are any other great treasures.”

Varric Combs, with his keen eyesight, had already scanned everything thoroughly. There were indeed many great items, including several Superior Spiritual Treasures of considerable power, but he wasn’t interested.

How could the Saint of Thieves lack for Spiritual Treasures?

To tempt the Saint of Thieves, it would have to be an Innate Spiritual Treasure. Didn’t you see how Varric Combs was practically drooling upon seeing Cyrveth McCarty’s Heaven-devouring Altar, willing to offend both Master of Path and Cyrveth McCarty just to take the risk and seize it?

Varric Combs put the rubbings into his Space Ring: ”I’ll keep the Space Turbulence Technique for now. I’ll study it first, then hand it to you. As for the other items, set them out, see who they might be useful for, and distribute them. We can’t leave empty-handed.”

”Sure!”

Carson Flores quickly released the others. As they looked at the pile of items and the white-haired elder who had fallen on the platform, everyone’s eyes lit up.

Ilvarion Arnold called out excitedly: ”Brother, you really broke through the Space Land of Chaotic Streams, amazing!”

Lucas White asked: ”Master, is that the fallen mighty figure? Did we get anything good?”

Varric Combs answered: ”As for gains, just these things on the ground plus a piece of rubbings. The rubbings have the Space Turbulence Technique; this trip was not in vain!”

Everyone quickly understood the situation and immediately became excited.

They cracked the secret land, were unharmed, and gained something—why wouldn’t they be happy?

”Let’s divide the spoils!”

Everyone began joyfully distributing the items. The process was simple: pick up an item, study what it is, then decide who wants it. If no one spoke up, they would split into piles, and each took a pile at the end.

”Eh, what’s this?”

Lucas White picked up an object the size of a fist that resembled a fruit pit and examined it closely: ”It looks like the fruit of some tree, or perhaps, it’s a seed?”

A seed?

Carson Flores felt a stir in his heart and reached out to take the fruit, examining it carefully.

Earlier, his Divine Sense had swept over it, but he assumed it was just a fruit he didn’t recognize and didn’t pay much attention, with the world being full of unknowns.

The fruit’s surface wasn’t smooth; it seemed to have natural patterns, and these patterns gathered into what looked like a living design.

Carson Flores examined closely, surprised by what he saw.

”What kind of fruit is this? The design on it resembles a demonic beast; it looks familiar, but I can’t quite recall...”

Everyone gathered around, taking turns inspecting the fruit, and eventually, it ended up in Varric Combs’s hands.

”Eh, is this the Gluttonous Blood Fruit?”

Carson Flores looked at Varric Combs in surprise: ”Senior, do you recognize this fruit?”

Varric Combs was also surprised: ”I’ve heard of it, but this is the first time seeing it.”

Seeing everyone’s curious looks, Varric Combs turned the fruit, showing the design to everyone: ”Look, doesn’t this design resemble the legendary notorious demonic beast, Gluttony?”
