The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 2567

Ezra Roth’s provocation and move, Carson Flores paid no attention to it.

He clearly remembered Ezra Roth’s stunning and dazed look upon seeing Cassiane Sinclair. This guy was probably trying to provoke him in front of Cassiane to show off how amazing he was.

Unfortunately, he hit a brick wall.

Ezra Roth probably didn’t know that Cassiane, whom he saw as a goddess, was even stronger.

Failed to swagger, embarrassed in front of the beauty, how could he stay?

Following the white-haired elder all the way, they smoothly arrived at the Shadow Gate.

On the ten thousand zhang cliffs that seemed cleaved by a blade, the two characters "Umbracleft" emitted a majestic and vast aura.

Carson Flores sighed in relief. Previously, he still harbored some suspicion towards the identities of the two. Now, at least, their identities were verified.

Carson and company followed the white-haired elder into the Shadow Gate, crossed the mountain valleys, and passed the grand palaces built among the mountains, arriving at the deepest part of the Shadow Gate, a black mountain filled with Forbidden Techniques.

The three landed in front of the mountain, and the white-haired elder cupped his hands and loudly declared: "Disciple of the Dragon Mountain Sect, Carson Flores, has been brought."

The prohibition at the mountain gate silently opened, revealing a dark mountain path.

The white-haired elder gestured with his hand: "You two, please proceed up the mountain."

Carson Flores stared at the white-haired elder, "You’re not going up?"

The white-haired elder smiled and said, "My task was to bring you here. As for what you discuss, it has nothing to do with me."

Carson asked, "Who’s on the mountain, your Sect Leader?"

The white-haired elder replied, "Yes."

Carson said no more, stepped forward onto the stone steps, and Cassiane Sinclair followed closely behind.

As the two entered, the prohibition closed behind them with a swish.

Carson turned his head, looking at the closed mountain gate, and exchanged a glance with Cassiane, both seeing the worry in each other’s eyes.

The place sure felt eerie everywhere.

Carson didn’t have much choice. Since they were here, they might as well stay calm. After all, this place was under the influence of the Myriad Immortals Palace, so they wouldn’t do anything to a disciple of the Dragon Mountain Sect, would they?

Carson and Cassiane climbed the stone steps all the way up, and soon reached a black house halfway up the mountain.

Black Mountain, black rocks, black house.

The formation surrounding the mountain enveloped the sun and moon, blocking out daylight. The entire peak seemed dark and gloomy, like dusk.

They approached the house, and Carson loudly said: "Carson Flores of the Dragon Mountain Sect, here to pay a visit!"

The door of the black house opened silently. Inside, a silhouette was sitting cross-legged, the whole person seemed to have merged with the twilight, like a ghost in the mountains.

This person was naturally the Sect Leader of the Shadow Gate, Lord Quelorn, one of the Immortal Monarchs under the Separation Sea Sect.

"You must be curious why I summoned you?"

Carson answered calmly, "Indeed, since I haven’t had any dealings with your sect, and I haven’t been in the North Sea for long."

"Haha..."

Quelorn suddenly laughed heartily: "Actually, I’m also very curious why a disciple of the Dragon Mountain Sect, with mediocre strength, got involved in the internal strife of the Sea God Sect and even played a key role?"

Carson’s gaze shifted slightly, his tone remained calm: "What the Immortal Monarch says, I don’t quite understand. I do know Saint Young Master Lorvian Randall from the Sea God Sect, and got along very well, but I’ve never been involved in the Sea God Sect’s internal conflict..."

Quelorn laughed and said: "Now that you are here, there’s no point in denying, why bother covering it up?"

Quelorn’s tone was full of self-assured confidence: "You ventured into Suffering Pray Sea and helped Lorvian Randall find Halvyr Briggs, even went undercover in the Valentine Family, and using the Secret Realm expedition, helped them subdue both the Valentine and Aarav families..."

Carson remained silent, his breathing suddenly became heavier.

How did Quelorn know about these things?

"Is the Shadow Gate a member of the Sea God Sect too?"

Quelorn laughed and said: "In the North Sea, sect power, being a subordinate of the Myriad Immortals Palace, and being a member of the Sea God Sect do not conflict."

Carson said solemnly: "Is the Shadow Gate loyal to that... current Sea God?"

Quelorn’s laughter suddenly rose in pitch: "You’re very smart, but unfortunately, you still guessed wrong!"

Carson was somewhat confused: "Since you know what I’ve done, then you surely know I have connections with the Saint Heir, and even Sect Hierarch Briggs. You brought me here, so clearly you are not on Sect Hierarch Briggs’ side..."

Quelorn leisurely stood up from within the house: "Young man, your imagination is still not rich enough, let me show you something..."

A small blue seal flew out from between Quelorn’s eyebrows. As soon as the seal appeared, the sound of waves instantly resounded, countless seawater surged rapidly from the void, giving Carson the feeling of being trapped in the deep sea.

The blue seal emitted a blue glow, and a vast and sacred aura spread around, enveloping Carson and Cassiane, instilling in Carson a primal urge to kneel and submit.

Carson’s face turned white in an instant.
