The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

"Senior sister, you’ve always stayed at Grand Void Mountain and rarely gone out. How many people can you know? I really can’t count as much..."

Kaelithra Nixon snorted, "Don’t listen to the senior brother’s nonsense. I’ve actually gone out to experience things, it’s not like he says I know nothing."

Carson Flores chuckled and remained silent.

From Halvion Ward’s teasing words, it was clear Kaelithra Nixon must have had some embarrassing incidents during her outings, ones that could become a laughingstock, so much so that when teased, Kaelithra Nixon couldn’t even refute it, just letting the senior brother stop talking was all.

Kaelithra Nixon probably also knew her argument wasn’t very credible, so she blinked, "Of course, compared to your exciting life experiences, my training is naturally much inferior."

Carson Flores laughed, "Cultivating safely and happily, doing what you want, and enjoying life, that sounds great. I’ve been wandering this whole way, without a stable place to settle anywhere."

Saying this, Carson Flores couldn’t help but show a bitter smile, "Even though I joined sects before, I’ve mostly been running around outside and rarely returned. Later, when I reached the Ten Thousand Immortals Domain, I finally managed to build a cave mansion, considering it home, only for the Myriad Immortals Palace to level the entire island to the ground..."

Kaelithra Nixon looked at Carson Flores sympathetically and couldn’t help but speak, "Why don’t you stay at Grand Void Mountain? When the master returns, I’ll ask him to take you in as a disciple, then Grand Void Mountain will be your home."

"The master is famous throughout the Bitter Sea Immortal Domain; no one dares to provoke him. The entire Immortal Domain is incredibly powerful, capable of reaching anywhere in an instant, even across numerous domains. By joining Grand Void Mountain, you’ll no longer need to worry about being bullied."

"Yeah, even if the opponent is the Domain Master of the Ten Thousand Immortals Domain, it won’t work!"

Carson Flores couldn’t help but laugh, "The way you say it is indeed tempting."

Kaelithra Nixon laughed too, "The master appreciates you. If you truly want to become his disciple, he might really accept you."

Carson Flores shook his head, "I am used to wandering alone, doing things recklessly, and escaping when I can’t win. If I truly join Grand Void Mountain, who knows how much trouble I’ll bring there?"

"Moreover, I have an agreement with someone to go to the Crimson Immortal Domain, so I can’t stay here for long. Once these two matters are dealt with, I’ll leave, and I can only disappoint your good intentions, senior sister."

Kaelithra Nixon looked regretful, "It’s truly a pity. If you joined Grand Void Mountain, I’d surely have more grand feasts."

Carson Flores couldn’t help but laugh, "Do you want me to join Grand Void Mountain just so I can make you feasts in the future?"

Kaelithra Nixon giggled and said, "Of course not. It’s just that you’re talented, and you joining Grand Void Mountain would strengthen the sect. Feasts aren’t the only reason."

Though she claimed feasts weren’t the main reason, her expression betrayed her.

Carson Flores smiled, "We still have time traveling together, right? During this period, I’ll cook my specials for you to enjoy, okay?"

Kaelithra Nixon’s eyes lit up, looking excited, "Really?"

Carson Flores nodded, "Traveling is dull, and being idle is boring. Actually, I quite enjoy preparing some delicious dishes on the journey to reward myself. As the saying goes, ’only good food must not be forsaken; they heal the soul,’ and it makes a lot of sense."

Kaelithra Nixon laughed, "That’s a good saying. I’ll tell it to the senior brother when we return. If he gets happy, I can scam more feasts."

The Bitter Sea Immortal Domain may not be divided into four separate domains like the Ten Thousand Immortals Domain, but its area is not smaller at all. It’s said that even if riding the fastest flying boat, it would take decades to traverse from east to west, not to mention unexplored desolate lands.

The Red River Mountains stretch tens of thousands of miles, located in remote areas. The nearest city is at least ten days flying distance, with demonic beasts rampant and danger everywhere, such that even daring cultivators seldom venture deep, as coming back is uncertain.

With the Starry Sky Demon Tiya by Carson Flores’s side, whose strength can suppress Peak Great Land True Immortal, he’s naturally fearless.

From Grand Void Mountain to the Red River Mountains takes at least four months. If hurrying, it’s faster, but Carson Flores isn’t in a rush, hence not working too hard.

Nowadays, Carson Flores has started learning to relax his mindset, no longer holding a ’seize every minute’ mentality, considering immortals have countless lifespans, what’s the rush? It’s not like they’re racing to reincarnate.

"The longevity feast is still some time away. Why don’t I accompany you to the Red River Mountains first? When the feast arrives, you accompany me to attend. How’s that?"

Carson Flores was somewhat surprised, "You’re the True Sage’s disciple, attending the feast on their behalf is normal. I’m a nobody, tagging along seems a bit abrupt, doesn’t it?"

"What’s there to worry about? Having a feast won’t bankrupt them."

Kaelithra Nixon pouted, "I brought generous gifts; they won’t be at a loss."

Carson Flores laughed silently. Was it a matter of loss we’re discussing?

Kaelithra Nixon glanced at Carson Flores and added, "Being a friend is enough of an identity. Who’d speak too much? Longevity feasts are supposed to be lively with lots of guests."

Carson Flores looked at Kaelithra Nixon with a smile, "You wouldn’t be nervous attending the feast alone, would you?"

"Who’s nervous?"

Kaelithra Nixon’s face turned red suddenly, instinctively stiffening her neck, replying more softly under Carson Flores’s smiling gaze, "Just think it’s boring alone, having someone along is livelier."

Carson Flores thought about it; the Red River Mountains weren’t too far from Moon Wheel Mountain where Kaelithra attends the feast. Estimating about half a month’s journey, running an errand should delay things by about a month. He nodded, "Alright, I’ll accompany you."

Halvion Ward helped greatly, and before leaving, entrusted Kaelithra Nixon’s care to me, so I should accompany her.

It’s just a bit of payback; after all, there’s not much else I can do.

Several months passed in a blink, as Carson Flores and Kaelithra Nixon gradually approached the Red River Mountains.

"Let’s not discuss whether the Leap Void Beast exists, even if it does, it’s small in size, and this mountain range extends endlessly for tens of thousands of miles. How do we find it?"

Carson Flores wasn’t anxious, unfolding the map and tapping on a city symbol.

"No rush, let’s head here first."

Kaelithra Nixon looked down at the map, "Redwood City, what are we doing here?"

Carson Flores smiled, "Like you said, the Red River Mountains span tens of thousands of miles. Even if we’re fast, finding a possible non-existent Leap Void Beast is like searching for a needle in a haystack."

"Redwood City is the nearest major city to the Red River Mountains. Cultivators venturing into the mountains are certainly numerous, bringing the latest news. If the Leap Void Beast truly exists, someone must’ve seen it."

"If we gather useful information, it’ll make our search much more effective."

Kaelithra Nixon’s eyes brightened, "Makes sense, let’s go!"
