Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo

Chapter 1860 A Difficult Ascent

They continued hiking up the hill. Suddenly, a group of guards appeared, blocking their path.

Levant chuckled and asked, “Are these bandits seeking to rob us of our wealth?”

The guard in the lead harrumphed and replied coldly, “You cannot head up this mountain. Leave if you have any common sense.”

Davin queried, “We’ve been on Daemonic Mount for days and hiked up the mountain multiple times, yet you’ve never stopped us before. Why did you suddenly materialize like spirits to block our advance?”

“We did not see a need in dealing with peasants such as yourselves until you deigned to ascend this mountain. I’ll repeat myself only once. Get lost if you know what’s good for you. Don’t say I didn’t warn you.”

Looking at the group of guards before them, Levant whispered to Davin, “The three Guardians must’ve realized our plans to open the treasure and sent these guards to stop us!”

“How did they find out so quickly?” Davin was stunned.

“I guess our party size alerted them to our presence. Along with Steven’s men, the Guardians can hardly miss us.”

Davin sighed, wondering if they had startled their enemies into action. It’s not easy to open that treasure.
