The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard Chapter 2401: Myriad Immortals Palace’s Instructions?

Floating Cloud sat cross-legged, his face pale, and his clothes bore faint traces of blood, making him look frail.

Carson Flores walked in from outside. Hearing footsteps, Floating Cloud slowly opened his eyes.

Upon seeing Carson Flores, Floating Cloud’s eyes lit up with a hint of expectation.

"Carson, you’re awake?"

Carson nodded and spoke directly, "I’ve learned it."

Floating Cloud’s eyes suddenly filled with undisguised joy, and his voice grew excited, "Dragon Mountain Cloud Dream Art, you’ve learned it?"

Carson nodded, "Yes."

"Great!"

Floating Cloud laughed heartily, his spirit elated, "As expected, you are the one guided by destiny, directly comprehending the Dragon Mountain Cloud Dream Art without practicing any Dragon Mountain techniques first, haha... cough, cough..."

Laughing, Floating Cloud suddenly aggravated his injury, leading to a violent cough, and his face turned red.

Carson hurriedly stepped forward, gently patting Floating Cloud on the back while injecting spiritual power to calm the chaotic energy inside Floating Cloud.

After a while, Floating Cloud stopped coughing and appeared much more weary, but the excitent in his eyes remained, clearly believing more than ever that Carson was the one to break the tribulation.

Carson sighed, "Master, you’re seriously injured."

Floating Cloud smiled bitterly, "The opponent was strong, so I had to fight desperately to win. Fortunately, I won. Otherwise, the injury would have been for nothing."

Carson curiously asked, "Having won this duel, what benefits can we actually gain?"

Floating Cloud explained, "According to the agreent, the Three Sects can freely spread their teachings in the North Sea, and the Sea God Sect must never set foot in Eastern Radiance again. How much do you know about the Sea God Sect?"

Carson replied, "Will Power Path, I learned a bit since we arrived early."

Floating Cloud nodded, "Will Power Path uses spells, elixirs, and such to help mortals gain their devotion. In this respect, they are no different from us Three Sects. However, in their eagerness to harvest will power, they tend to go down a path of shortcuts, treating followers more like sheep to endlessly fleece."

"The Three Sects also need followers but differ from the Sea God Sect. Even among us, there are significant differences. Dharma speaks of all beings, Fiction values nature, while our Dragon Mountain Cult specializes in various disciplines, emphasizing practical deeds. Countless disciples walk the earth to slay demons, perform rain dances, heal the sick, and bring benefits to countless people, thus gaining the trust of the world and standing alongside Dharma and Fiction."

Carson curiously asked, "Does the Will Power Path with its will power collection, apply to the Three Sects?"

Floating Cloud shook his head, "We have our own system, not engaging in will power collection. We seek the people’s hearts, not will power."

"The Sea God Sect is powerful in the North Sea. However, after many long years of developnt, they’ve reached their limit. To rise further, they need to expand their believer base and thus extend outward."

"Eastern Radiance is the most suitable region for common people within the Four Domains of Eastern Radiance. Therefore, its population is the largest and naturally beca the target for the Sea God Sect’s expansion. However, neither the Three Sects nor the Myriad Immortals Palace wishes for the Sea God Sect to expand into Eastern Radiance, leading to this sect rivalry."

Carson’s eyes widened, "The Myriad Immortals Palace is also involved?"

Floating Cloud nodded, "The Sea God Sect naturally wouldn’t defy the Myriad Immortals Palace. However, in developing across the North Sea, they have drawn countless sects into the Sea God Sect, forming a vast interest group. The Myriad Immortals Palace naturally has to be cautious because according to the Will Power Path, if their believers are nurous enough, becoming a Saint is completely possible."

Carson suddenly realized, "Are they worried that the Sea God Sect Leader might beco a Saint, threatening the Immortal Emperor’s status?"

Floating Cloud laughed, "Perhaps. Without even speaking of the Immortal Emperor, the Myriad Immortals Palace, being the master of the Ten Thousand Immortals Domain, would not wish for anyone to threaten or surpass themselves. So, appropriate suppression is necessary."

Carson laughed, "Couldn’t the Twelve Immortal Kings of the Myriad Immortals Palace eliminate the Sea God Sect with just a command?"

Floating Cloud explained, "If the opponent were insignificant, perhaps. However, the Sea God Sect’s entanglent with countless North Sea sects is complicated. Even if the Sect Leader were killed, wouldn’t another just take over? Could they kill all the sects?"

Carson nodded in understanding, "That certainly wouldn’t work. It would be difficult and, if you did that, how would others react? Today it could be the Sea God Sect, tomorrow it might be themselves..."

"Exactly!"

Floating Cloud smiled, "The Immortal Emperor might have absolute control, extinguishing with a thought, but the Myriad Immortals Palace cannot. Therefore, they can only choose to suppress and balance, letting the Three Sects prevent the Sea God Sect’s expansion and even counteracting in the North Sea to reduce their believers."

Carson smiled, "That’s root plucking, isn’t it?"

Floating Cloud laughed, "It’s not truly root plucking. After all, the Sea God Sect has deeply cultivated the North Sea for such a long ti. It’s not sothing we can easily overturn. We can only slowly wear them down..."
