The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Carson Flores rapidly retreated while simultaneously noticing the mysterious figure that suddenly appeared in the sky.

Familiar black robe, familiar hood!

Carson’s pupils contracted, and his heartbeat accelerated abruptly. This guy is actually the Demon Clan Quasi-Saint he encountered twice before!

Previously, when Carson met the Thousand Demon Monarch, he fabricated an excuse, saying Halvion Ward asked him to warn the Thousand Demon Monarch to be cautious of the Demon Clan. Originally, this was just something he made up, but unexpectedly, it became a reality!

Have I jinxed it?

Is what I say always coming true?

The Black Robed Man grabbed the Demon God Banner without pausing, glanced back in Carson’s direction, and vanished like a phantom from where he stood.

An ominous feeling surged in Carson’s heart.

The next moment, the Black Robed Man appeared directly beside Carson, his voice icy as a sharp blade piercing into Carson’s ear.

”You little brat who ruined my plans, die!”

Carson turned his head to see the Black Robed Man pointing at him, as if the mountain and sea were crushing him. The invisible terror instantly enveloped Carson, and he didn’t even have time to react before his body exploded, turning into a mass of blood mist.

The Black Robed Man killed Carson instantly, snorting coldly, ”Dying cleanly and swiftly like this, it saves trouble for you!”

The Thousand Demon Monarch’s gaze followed the Black Robed Man, happening to witness the Black Robed Man’s gesture that instantly killed Carson, his eyes momentarily stunned.

Clearly, Carson had already left, so how did he come back?

Did he die so inexplicably?

Thinking how Carson had come to remind him to be careful of the Demon Clan, yet now he died at the hands of the Demon Clan, the Thousand Demon Monarch’s heart surged with a killing intent.

”Mordyn Jandric, you conspire with the Demon Clan, deserving ten thousand deaths, aren’t you afraid that Spring God Palace will be exterminated?”

Mordyn Jandric laughed heartily, ”As long as I can get what I want, if Spring God Palace is gone, then so be it. I don’t care at all!”

The Thousand Demon Monarch’s eyes burned with fury, ”The Demon Clan is the life-and-death enemy of our Immortal Realm. Conspiring with the Demon Clan is a capital offense, and you’ll have no place in the entire Immortal Realm. What sort of thing could drive you to such madness?”

Mordyn Jandric chuckled, ”Fellow Warren, you and I have been trapped in the Quasi-Saint Realm for so many years. Don’t you want to touch upon the threshold of the Saint Realm?”

Saint Realm?

The Thousand Demon Monarch paused, then sneered, ”If the Demon Clan truly had a way to let people enter the Saint Realm, wouldn’t they have countless Saints? And wouldn’t it be better to send a Saint instead of a Quasi-Saint as a vanguard? You actually believe such a thing, how foolish must you be?”

Mordyn Jandric grinned slyly, ”You’re smart, and I’m not stupid either. If there wasn’t a real possibility, why would I agree?”

The Thousand Demon Monarch furrowed his brows, momentarily puzzled. Mordyn Jandric wasn’t an idiot; he indeed wouldn’t be deceived by empty promises. Could the Demon Clan really have a way to help people touch the Saint Realm?

During the brief conversation, the Black Robed Man had already appeared before the Thousand Demon Monarch again, waved his hand, and a small magical treasure flew back to his palm. He stored it in his sleeve, then whipped up a strong wind that instantly dispersed the overwhelming scent.

The Monster Beast Army, originally engaged in chaotic battle, suddenly regained some clarity, ceasing their fights and fleeing into the distance.

The Black Robed Man coldly said, ”If anyone escapes, I’ll annihilate their True Soul!”

As soon as the Black Robed Man uttered this, all demonic beasts immediately halted, observing this side from afar.

The Great Demons saw the Demon God Banner fall into the Black Robed Man’s hands, knowing their lives were now controlled by him, naturally not daring to flee.

Even if they knew the Black Robed Man might not be able to use the Demon God Banner now, as long as he held it, eventually he would break its prohibition and dominate the Banner. By that time, any Great Demons who fled would be annihilated.

They wanted to run, but they didn’t dare to.

The Thousand Demon Monarch observed this scene, gritted his teeth, but felt helpless.

Clearly, the opponent had planned to seize his Demon God Banner, precisely for these Great Demons. After all, with the Demon God Banner in hand, controlling these Great Demons meant having command over an army!

”Even if you seize my Demon God Banner, you won’t be able to use it to command my Monster Beast Army!”

The Black Robed Man said coolly, ”That’s not for you to worry about. Since I came, I naturally have a way to break the prohibition. Although it will take some time, as long as the Demon God Banner is in my hands, they must obey me, unless they wish to die.”

The Thousand Demon Monarch’s face turned livid; he knew the foe spoke the truth.

Unless he could reclaim the Demon God Banner, otherwise, these demonic beasts would obey the Black Robed Man, even following orders to besiege him.

The Black Robed Man snorted coldly, ”Surround me. If he escapes, I’ll kill you all!”

All demonic beasts moved instantaneously, forming a perimeter as solid as an iron wall.

The Thousand Demon Monarch coldly said, ”You think you can kill me?”

The Black Robed Man nodded, ”Although I have a way to lift the prohibition on the Demon God Banner, the fastest way is naturally you unlocking it yourself. Capturing you is the best solution; moreover, if you escape, the news leaking out will ultimately bring trouble. So you can’t leave here today.”

”Hundreds of Great Demons, two Quasi-Saints, attacking you who have lost the Demon God Banner, I suppose there’s no suspense, right?”

The Thousand Demon Monarch gritted his teeth, ”Come, let’s see!”

The Black Robed Man brandished a black bone spur, sneering, ”Don’t blame me for not giving you a chance. If you surrender to me now, become one of the Demon Race, once we establish the Teleportation Array and welcome the Demon Race Army, then you will be a person of merit. I can also give you the chance to touch the Saint Realm’s threshold. Of course, whether you succeed depends on you.”

”If you refuse to surrender now, then I have no choice but to kill you, annihilate your soul and body, as only the dead can truly keep secrets!”

”I spit on that!”

The Thousand Demon Monarch spat, ”I’m no Mordyn Jandric, that worthless scum who only knows how to toil on a woman’s belly. My bones aren’t as soft as his. I can kneel nowhere. If I die today, it means fate’s cut me short. If I survive, I’ll fight you to the death!”

The Black Robed Man snorted, ”Inane resistance. Since you don’t cherish the chance given, then die, attack!”

With the Black Robed Man’s order, Mordyn Jandric, gathering energy, once again urged the Bronze Cauldron to attack the Thousand Demon Monarch.

”Fellow Warren, long since promised my disciple to stand up for him. Today shall be the end of this matter!”

The Thousand Demon Monarch cursed, ”A disgrace to sleeping with disciples, I might die today, but I’ll drag you down with me!”

In the midst of curses, the black bone spur, accompanied by the Bronze Cauldron, attacked the Thousand Demon Monarch.

The Thousand Demon Monarch, though a Quasi-Saint, without his Life-bound Magic Treasure, his combat power greatly reduced. Meanwhile, the Black Robed Man’s strength was terrifying. That bone spur seemed forged from some fierce beast’s bones, and as it flew, the entire space quivered slightly, as if some fierce beast was ready to awaken and break through the void at any moment.
