The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 2606: Chapter 2606: How Does It Feel to Be a Dog for Your Enemy?

"Lord Moses, it was the Cave Master who asked for you. I’m just responsible for delivering a message. Stop staring at me, go find the Cave Master."

Carson Flores spread both hands with an innocent expression: "If I didn’t pretend to be someone important, could I even meet you? I’m being forced into this."

Lilianna Moses gritted her teeth and said, "You pretended to be the Secret Emissary of Malignant Dragon City Lord just to see me. And the things you said to me afterwards, that attitude, was that forced too?"

Carson Flores shrugged: "You already said you wanted to kill me, so can’t I at least speak my mind a little?"

Lilianna Moses was momentarily at a loss for words, unable to argue.

Indeed, she said she would kill him at the right place, and only then did he start teasing her. Well, this guy is just relying on the fact that he’s an Incarnation, not afraid to die, so he’s being so unruly.

His true body isn’t dead, this stifling feeling is hard to swallow!

Master Zane of the Cave spoke lightly: "You say I haven’t changed over the years, but you’ve remained the same too — always competitive and unwilling to suffer any loss. You’re set on killing him, yet you don’t let him insult you?"

Lilianna Moses snorted coldly: "That’s just his Incarnation, his true self isn’t dead yet!"

Master Zane of the Cave said coldly: "Can’t let go? Want me to capture you and put you in Soul Shackles, making you his maid, pouring tea and making beds for him day in and day out?"

Lilianna Moses glared furiously at Master Zane of the Cave: "If you dare do that, I’ll go down with you!"

Master Zane of the Cave sneered: "Go down with me? You’d need the strength for that, it’s not like the past anymore. Killing you is as easy as a flick of the wrist now!"

Lilianna Moses’s face changed slightly, eyes fixed on Master Zane of the Cave: "You’ve reached Quasi-Saint Realm?"

Master Zane of the Cave snorted: "If I were as useless as you, how could I avenge my master?"

Lilianna Moses’s expression turned shaky, sizing up Master Zane of the Cave, slowly shaking her head: "No, you’re not a Quasi-Saint. If you were, you could have suppressed me effortlessly earlier. Even if I wanted to kill that kid, I couldn’t..."

Master Zane of the Cave did not explain, instead said softly: "If you don’t believe me, you can try."

Lilianna Moses chuckled coldly: "Even if I’m weaker than you, can you compete with the Hall Master of the Myriad Immortals Palace? You still want to kill him? You’re delirious!"

Master Zane of the Cave stared at Lilianna Moses, said coldly: "Regardless of whether I can kill him in the end or not, at least I’m trying hard. But you, serving the enemy who killed your mother like a dog, how does it feel?"

Lilianna Moses initially looked indifferent, but hearing the last sentence, her expression changed drastically, she screamed: "What did you say?"

Master Zane of the Cave’s eyes were full of mockery, his voice filled with ridicule: "Do you not know that your mother, my master, died at his hands?"

Lilianna Moses’s face turned pale, she screamed: "You’re lying! That’s impossible!"

Master Zane of the Cave looked calmly at Lilianna Moses, neither refuting nor explaining, but this silent calm made Lilianna Moses increasingly terrified.

"You must be lying to me, right? When Mother passed away, I was by her side, watching her leave. She passed the position of City Lord to me and repeatedly urged me to be loyal to the Myriad Immortals Palace, loyal to the Hall Master..." freёwebnovel.com

Master Zane of the Cave sneered: "Master was powerful, almost strongest below Quasi-Saint, in perfect condition. Yet, when returning from outside, she was severely wounded, near death. When we asked about the attacker, she only said it was a Quasi-Saint from another Immortal Domain, unknown name, unknown origin... Do you believe such a reason?"

Lilianna Moses gritted her teeth: "If not a Quasi-Saint, who could have hurt her?"

Master Zane of the Cave did not answer, but instead asked: "Do you know how long it took him to Breakthrough into the Quasi-Saint Realm?"

Lilianna Moses naturally understood who ’him’ referred to: "Too long, can’t remember clearly, but vaguely recall it was shortly after Mother’s death..." freewёbn૦νeɭ.com

Lilianna Moses’s eyes widened suddenly, looking incredulous: "Are you saying his Breakthrough is related to Mother’s death?"

Master Zane of the Cave asked again: "Then do you know what Cultivation Technique he practiced?"

Lilianna Moses did not hesitate to answer this time: "Heartless Art!"

Master Zane of the Cave coldly said: "Heartless Art, as the name suggests, to achieve the ultimate path, one must be heartless, in simple terms, completely sever all desires. Do you know the connection between him and Master?"

Lilianna Moses’s face turned pale. Although Master Zane of the Cave’s words and questions seemed unrelated to Mother’s death, an indistinct clue lay before her.

Lilianna Moses’s voice became weak: "I’ve heard they knew each other before. I asked Mother, but she didn’t elaborate, only said they were acquainted..."

"Acquainted?"

Master Zane of the Cave laughed loudly, the laughter sharp and fierce: "Acquainted? He once deeply loved Master, but Master appreciated his talent yet did not like him. Until the end, she never accepted him. Later, she met my teacher’s husband, and they fell in love, the past was naturally buried in her heart, not told to others, much less to you..."

Lilianna Moses seemed lost in her own world, softly murmuring: "Heartless Art, true love..."
