The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard-Chapter 2228: Fellow Daoist, You’re Doing Quite Well!

Carson Flores never expected that his visit to Mingxiang Valley would lead him to forge a special friendship.

Divine Thief!

A small sect with only twenty or thirty members, yet it could make a name for itself all across the world, instilling fear in people, and even making one of the Twelve Immortal Kings of the Myriad Immortals Palace lose face—this is not something just anyone could achieve.

After a round of drinks, Carson and Lucas White had a great conversation.

Despite the significant gap in strength between Carson and Lucas White, Carson still had some reservations deep down. After all, Carson had revealed the Ethereal Pagoda in front of everyone and resisted an attack from a Great Land practitioner with his Heavenly Immortal level strength. Even under the close-range crushing of a domain, the Ethereal Pagoda easily protected Carson.

The Ethereal Pagoda exhibited extraordinary power, so even if Lucas White intervened, Carson still had some reservations about him.

Even if Lucas White didn’t step in, Carson would have found a way to escape danger, so it was merely assistance and not a life-saving grace. It was normal for Carson to be cautious since they had just met.

If one really didn’t have any awareness at all and treated strangers with sincerity, they wouldn’t even know how they died.

Though Carson’s strength was far inferior to Lucas White’s, he was not afraid due to the Ethereal Pagoda.

The Ethereal Pagoda was incredibly powerful in itself. Moreover, it housed a Fifth Level Great Perfection Dark Ancestral Dragon.

If Lucas White had any ill intentions, Carson might not be able to harm him, but he definitely had the ability to protect himself.

With everything settled, the three of them headed towards Green Bird City together.

Green Bird City, located amidst mountain ranges, was not built atop a towering peak but used the sky as its curtain and the mountains as its walls. By leveraging the transformative techniques of cultivators, the endless mountain ranges were directly refined into a vast wall encompassing countless mountains and rivers, serving as the foundation for numerous constructions.

Green Bird City is a city, but it’s more than just a city.

Over a hundred thousand disciples in Green Bird City inhabit this city within the mountain-bound enclave, just like its residents.

Carson arrived alone at the entrance of Green Bird City and presented a token representing Green Bird City, given to him by Dominic Miller, the disciple he had previously saved.

"Independent Cultivator Lin Chen, here to visit friends, please report my arrival."

The gatekeeping disciple smiled as he looked at the token in Carson’s hand and said, "Fellow Daoist Flores, who do you wish to see?"

Carson replied, "Outer Sect, Pill Room, Dominic Miller."

"Please wait a moment."

The gatekeeping disciple sent a message, and shortly afterwards, Dominic Miller appeared at the gate, a delighted smile on his face when he saw Carson.

"Fellow Daoist Dominic, long time no see. How have you been?"

After Dominic registered with the gatekeeper, he led Carson into the city and all the way to his cave mansion.

Dominic was a disciple of the Outer Sect’s Pill Room. Although his status wasn’t particularly high throughout Green Bird City, it wasn’t exactly low either because he was the steward of one peak in the Pill Room. He managed numerous affairs related to his mountain’s Pill Room, which made him considered a somewhat higher-up in the Outer Sect.

Upon returning to his mountain, Dominic was greeted with respectful bows from many disciples they encountered along the way.

Carson smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist Dominic, you’re doing quite well in Green Bird City, aren’t you?"

Dominic modestly replied, "You’re too kind, Fellow Daoist Flores. I’m just a small steward, just managing various trivial matters. I haven’t even made it into the Inner Sect, far from achieving what you’d call doing well."

Carson laughed and said, "This isn’t any ordinary force; it’s a sect of immortals. To stand out in an immortal sect means any of you can be considered successful. There are a hundred thousand sect disciples, how many can be stewards?"

As they spoke, they entered Dominic’s residence, where Dominic activated a formation, isolating them from the outside world.

Dominic respectfully clasped his hands and said, "Benefactor, I have awaited your arrival for a long time; you’re finally here."

Carson laughed and said, "Why wait for me? My coming here brings you trouble. It would’ve been better if I hadn’t come."

Dominic shook his head, "As a man, if I die, I die. But thinking about what kind of miserable future my young sister would face in the hands of those Bloody Hand Group people sends chills down my spine."

"Being grateful for a drop of water, should one not return a fountain of water? I have always awaited your arrival to offer my repayment."

Carson reached out his hand to lift Dominic, who was bending in salute, and said, "Fellow Daoist Dominic, there’s no need for such formality. I’m here to inquire about some information. If you can help, please do. If it’s inconvenient, just say so, and don’t risk yourself by assisting me."

"Actually, you’ve already done enough by revealing the existence of a Harmony Spring in a secret realm that Green Bird City is in contact with. With that piece of information alone, I’m confident I can find its location, so there’s no need to involve you further."

"I mean it sincerely; my visit isn’t to demand repayment. You should see me as just a visiting friend and not feel any pressure."

Dominic nodded, his expression slightly agitated, "It’s no trouble, Benefactor. The situation has already changed since before..."
