The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard
Chapter 2451: The Despair of Ghost True Sage
Us?
Ghost True Sage was stunned: "The person who handed over the Phoenix Fire Spirit hasn’t returned to camp?"
"We don’t know, everyone’s talking about it!"
Ghost True Sage let go of his hand, his gaze filled with confusion.
Could it be that someone saw the Phoenix Fire Spirit trying to escape again and, fearing they might not catch it in the future, decided to capture it themselves?
As Ghost True Sage thought of this, his eyes brightened.
Thinking this way, it makes a lot of sense.
Of course, Ghost True Sage wanted to gain his freedom, but more than that, he wanted to deal with Floating Cloud and others. If it weren’t for them, how would he have almost died, how would he have gone from being a Demon Head to a slave?
With his strength, even as a slave, he could live well. After all, there aren’t many enemies who could threaten his life.
He just didn’t want Floating Cloud and the others to be comfortable. Even if he couldn’t leave, he hoped to drag them to stay together.
Since he didn’t get the Phoenix Fire Spirit himself, it didn’t matter who got it, as long as it wasn’t Floating Cloud and the others!
Wait!
Let’s see who it is!
Ghost True Sage sat down on a chair and hadn’t been sitting long before Floating Cloud and the others walked in from outside.
Ghost True Sage swept his gaze over, then suddenly paused.
There was one more person beside Floating Cloud, someone he hadn’t seen before, Carson Flores.
Ghost True Sage’s heart skipped a beat, where had this kid been when he didn’t show up earlier?
He was clearly Floating Cloud’s disciple, but why did he always seem to act alone, never traveling with Floating Cloud and the others? Even earlier, when Floating Cloud and the others caught up, he was nowhere to be seen, yet now they were chatting happily together!
Something’s wrong!
In an instant, Ghost True Sage connected the dots with Carson Flores’s recent plentiful rewards. Phineas Tate had previously suspected Carson Flores of being an Earth Escape practitioner and had tried to get information, but Carson Flores showed his Divine Skills, confirming he was a Fire Path Immortal.
Could he be adept at both Fire and Earth?
No way?
Something even more unsettling happened: he saw that Steward Roth, who had been sitting to the side with a stern face, suddenly stood up with a friendly smile, walking towards Floating Cloud and the others.
Ghost True Sage’s heart sank abruptly. Not good.
Steward Roth walked up to Floating Cloud, his eyes filled with undisguised envy: "Congratulations, congratulations, the master instructed me, and I will serve you for the remaining matters."
Floating Cloud politely said, "Thank you, Steward Roth."
"Please wait a moment."
Steward Roth turned towards Ghost True Sage, his heart suddenly on edge. What was he going to do?
Steward Roth stopped in front of Ghost True Sage and calmly said, "The antidote for the poison on your disciple, hand it over."
Ghost True Sage’s eyes widened suddenly. In that moment, he thought of many things, but hadn’t expected the other party to ask for the antidote on behalf of Draelor Loxley.
Ghost True Sage asked in a low voice, "Steward Roth, did they obtain the Phoenix Fire Spirit?"
Steward Roth nodded, "Yes."
Ghost True Sage felt as if his brain had been struck with a hammer, his mind buzzing.
The worst outcome had occurred.
He didn’t resist and obediently handed over the antidote. After all, his life had been saved by that person, and if he disobeyed, that person could easily take his life again.
After giving the antidote, he couldn’t help but ask, "Did they all gain their freedom?"
"Yes."
Steward Roth left this remark and turned back to Floating Cloud, handing over the antidote.
Draelor Loxley looked at the antidote in Floating Cloud’s hand, feeling as if he were dreaming.
No wonder Floating Cloud and the others were so relaxed; it turned out to be them. No, it was Carson Flores who had captured the Phoenix Fire Spirit while hidden in the shadows. They even wanted to take him away and had asked for the antidote on his behalf.
In that moment, Draelor Loxley was filled with gratitude.
He had done many evil deeds in the past, initially coerced by Ghost True Sage, but later he became self-destructive and committed many bad deeds. He hadn’t expected Carson Flores and the others would still give him a chance to live.
Oh, they would strip away his abilities, making him an ordinary person to live out the rest of his days.
Even so, that was a very good outcome!
"Everyone, follow me!"
Steward Roth led Floating Cloud and the others away, countless eyes watching them with envy.
At this moment, they had countless thoughts, wanting to ask them to take them away too, to help them pass on a message to their family or Sect, but they knew this was absolutely impossible.
The Roulette Secret Realm was a channel for collecting labor for that person, and she wouldn’t let these people leak information about the Secret Realm.
They could only watch as a few people left the camp under Steward Roth’s lead, their figures disappearing into the desert outside the camp.
Steward Roth soon led them to the location of the teleportation gate from that day, and then cupped his hands with a smile: "Everyone, please wait here."
Steward Roth glanced at them enviously before turning to leave.
Floating Cloud looked around, "Are they sending us back to the Roulette Secret Realm?"
Flowing Cloud replied, "The Roulette Secret Realm and this place must have built a channel with a location lock. Returning by the original route is definitely the most efficient way, otherwise, without a location lock, returning to the Ten Thousand Immortals Domain would take an unknown amount of time."
Suddenly, Thyris Lucerne’s voice sounded in the air.
"To go back, you must first swear an oath not to leak any information about this place."
Carson Flores and the others complied, knowing this matter was significant, and exposure would likely cause significant repercussions.
After the oath, a white light spot appeared over the desert, rapidly expanding and finally stabilizing into a teleportation gate taller than a person.
"Enter this teleportation gate and you’ll return to the Secret Realm. Head south, and you’ll reach the exit and leave the Secret Realm."
Carson Flores raised his head and asked, "Ghost True Sage wants nothing more than to kill me. Is there any chance he’ll leave?"
"His life was saved by me; he’ll never leave."
Carson Flores breathed a sigh of relief, glad he couldn’t leave. Just stay here and repay your debt honestly!
