The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard-Chapter 1496: They Were Very Touched, Then They Rejected You!

The Demon Emperor has indeed ascended!

Carson Flores asked, "Which sect did the Demon Emperor join?"

Lance Matthews replied, "He joined the Sky Wolf Sect on the Heavenly Demon Continent."

Carson recalled meeting Lilianna Norman before. At that time, she had ventured to the Heavenly Demon Continent alone. He asked, "Did he go to the Heavenly Demon Continent on his own, or did people from the Sky Wolf Sect come to the Boundary Gate?"

Lance answered, "People from the Sky Wolf Sect came to the Boundary Gate. After understanding the situation in the Immortal Domains, the Demon Emperor joined the Sky Wolf Sect without hesitation."

Carson curiously asked, "Lilianna Norman is part of the demon race, but she possesses an Innate Taoist Body. Wasn’t anyone trying to recruit her back then?"

Lance explained, "The Heavenly Demon Continent is a kingdom of demons, and it doesn’t have much contact with our continent, which primarily consists of human cultivators. When the Boundary Gate opened earlier, they were unaware and didn’t send anyone to recruit her."

"Lilianna Norman’s Innate Taoist Body naturally attracted attention. Even we at the White Crane Immortal Sect wanted to recruit her, but she is very independent. She said that as her body is that of a demon fox, staying on the Skyland Continent wouldn’t be a good fit for her, so she planned to head to the Heavenly Demon Continent."

"Although everyone felt regretful, we couldn’t forcefully take her as a disciple. On top of that, she accepted our sect’s invitation and visited White Crane Immortal Sect as a guest. After waiting for you and being unable to meet you, she left for the Heavenly Demon Continent on her own."

"She joined the strongest sect, the Heavenly Fox Palace, which immediately caught the attention of the Heavenly Demon Continent. Several powerful sects then sent people to stay at the Boundary Gate."

"They don’t recruit human cultivators—only those demon race cultivators who ascend. On the Heavenly Demon Continent, they possess the Nine Demon True Solution, the perfect cultivation method for the demon race. When it comes to recruiting ascending demon race cultivators, they are incredibly effective."

"Besides the Demon Emperor, several high-ranking generals of the demon race from the Barbaric Wilderness Realm also ascended alongside him. All of them headed to the Heavenly Demon Continent."

Carson nodded, but a thought arose in his mind.

The Demon Emperor, after all, occupies his father’s body. His father is unquestionably a human cultivator, so should he now be considered human or demon?

However, the thought quickly vanished from Carson’s mind. Regardless of how he cultivates, Carson knows that he will eventually use the Soul Separation Technique to completely separate the Demon Emperor from his father.

Lance continued, "Little Martial Uncle, your original sect has fully ascended—your master, your two senior brothers, and your senior sister..."

Carson’s eyes lit up, and he let out a great sigh of relief: "They’ve all ascended?"

"Yes."

Lance observed Carson’s reaction and felt genuinely happy.

Why?

Because Carson is now part of the White Crane Immortal Sect!

Carson’s concern and affection for his former sect members showed that he is someone deeply loyal and emotionally attached.

As long as the sect treats him well, he will consider himself a true part of it and reciprocate with wholehearted dedication!

"The letter you left behind was personally delivered by the elder guarding the Boundary Gate to them as soon as possible."

"They know you’ve become the Little Martial Uncle of the White Crane Immortal Sect, and they were very happy and touched. But they all declined the invitation to join the White Crane Immortal Sect."

Carson widened his eyes: "What? Why?"

Although the White Crane Immortal Sect isn’t a top-tier sect, its strength is respectable, and the sect is united with a good atmosphere. It’s an appealing option.

Furthermore, Carson himself is now the Peak Master of Heavenly Sword Peak and the sect’s Little Martial Uncle. If they joined, he could look after them extensively, couldn’t he?

Lance sighed, "Little Martial Uncle, you’re hoping they’ll join the White Crane Immortal Sect so you can better take care of them?"

Carson nodded, "Yes, they’re as close as family to me."

Lance bitterly smiled, "Exactly. Because they’re as close as family to you, they all chose to consider your situation and ultimately refused to join our White Crane Immortal Sect."

For my sake?

Carson froze, then his face showed a bitter smile.

"Is it because of the hierarchical rank issue?"

Lance nodded: "That’s mostly the reasoning. Because you inherited Martial Uncle Patriarch Su’s Heavenly Sword Inheritance, you became Peak Master of Heavenly Sword Peak and are now on the same rank as the Supreme Elders in White Crane Immortal Sect. If they joined, at best, they would be considered first-generation disciples."

"In terms of rank, if they joined White Crane Immortal Sect, they would have to address you as Little Martial Uncle Patriarch, though they were originally your seniors..."

Carson bitterly smiled, "Surely there’s a way to resolve this? Look at the few disciples on my mountain—they simply call me Peak Master in daily life..."

Lance chuckled, "Titles are only one aspect of the issue. I suspect they mostly don’t want to burden you. They’re all exceptional talents, and their pride wouldn’t let them rely on you. They’d rather strike out on their own than let you scheme to support them here..."

Carson reflected on the personalities of his master and senior brothers and sister, and sighed helplessly.

Lance was right. Regardless of their actual strength, their sense of pride is undeniable.

In their eyes, Carson is their disciple and junior. Now that the junior is so accomplished, shouldn’t the master, senior brothers, and senior sister strive to surpass him?
