The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 262: Chapter 262: This Kid is Quite Sensible_1

”Miss Martinez, we meet again.”

Carson Flores responded with a smile, then nodded at Kylan Martinez, as a form of greeting.

Kylan Martinez’s expression returned to calm, ”No wonder you said we would meet again. You knew about today’s events already, didn’t you?”

Carson Flores smiled and nodded, but he deflected the conversation, ”Since you’ve already invited an expert from the White Willow Sect, I’m afraid you won’t be needing me, right?”

Kylan Martinez looked a bit surprised, ”You know them?”

Carson Flores pointed at the sandalwood medicine chest on the table, ”The standard equipment for a White Willow Sect healer, I recognize this.”

Kylan Martinez realized and nodded slightly, ”Healers from the cultivator families treat illnesses differently from ordinary people. I was thinking maybe you could exchange ideas with each other, like a panel of experts, to come up with a better treatment strategy. While the illness doesn’t affect me much and I don’t care about it, the pressure from my parents is significant.”

Carson Flores said with a smile, ”Cultivator families place greater emphasis on lineage, it’s understandable, nothing surprising.”

Carson Flores understood what Kylan Martinez was saying. Kylan Martinez was young and naturally in no hurry to have children, but as his parents, they naturally wanted him to have children and start nurturing them sooner.

If Kylan Martinez were to get older without having children, and other potential inheritors of the family headship had grown up and proven to be outstanding, they could be designated as the heirs to be fully nurtured in advance. By then, it would be too late for him to have his own children.

The competition for the position of family head within cultivator clans is fierce. As the son of the previous family head, one naturally has certain advantages, but the prerequisite is that you must also be exceptional. Otherwise, for the good of the clan, the family will choose a more suitable member to become the family head.

The family head does have privileges, but they also serve the family and, if necessary, can even be sacrificed for the sake of the family.

Remy Johnston stared at the three of them in surprise, ”You know each other?”

Carson Flores replied with a smile, ”A friend took me to Mr. Martinez’s racetrack once; we had a brief chat.”

Remy Johnston realized and chuckled, ”No wonder you asked if I mentioned your name. You’ve been waiting here for me, I see.”

Kylie Martinez stared at Remy Johnston, ”Is Carson Flores’s medical skill really that amazing?”

Remy Johnston fervently praised, ”My father’s life was snatched back from the hands of death by Carson Flores. I have never seen such miraculous medical skills before. The group of specialists in the operating room were all stunned.”

Kylie Martinez pouted, ”I thought you were bragging, huh!”

Remy Johnston looked baffled—was there a conflict between Carson Flores and Kylie Martinez?

Otherwise, what explained her attitude?

Carson Flores maintained a calm smile, ”Winning or losing is just a joke, Miss Martinez shouldn’t take it to heart.”

Kylan Martinez gestured for Remy Johnston to stop speaking and laughed, ”Since you’re here, let’s focus on the treatment first. We can talk more at the banquet later.”

Kylan Martinez handed out two sets of comprehensive medical reports he had prepared, one to each person. Carson Flores took the reports and made a welcoming gesture to Aziel Burgess from the White Willow Sect, ”After you.”

Carson Flores still followed his principles. Since the White Willow Sect’s practitioner had arrived first, he would let them have a look first, so no one would accuse him of trying to claim undue credit.

Aziel Burgess glanced at Carson Flores, nodded with reservation, pleased with the gesture.

The kid seemed to know his place.

Had he rushed forward eagerly, wanting to express his opinions immediately, Aziel Burgess would have turned on his heel and left.

Although the Martinez family was a lineage of cultivators and the White Willow Sect had seen better days and was not at its peak, they still warranted respect. If you summoned me, you should show the appropriate respect. If you didn’t trust me, why invite me in the first place?

What can a youngster in his twenties accomplish?

To amaze a bunch of ordinary doctors—was that supposed to be impressive?

Kylan Martinez’s issue was infertility, not impotence, so the embarrassment of removing trousers for examination was avoided.

Carson Flores carefully reviewed the report, pondered for a moment, and then put the report down.

The illness was indeed very troubling. According to the methods of ordinary doctors, it was practically incurable, but for a cultivator with special techniques, there was still hope for treatment.

Carson Flores remained silent, quietly waiting for Aziel Burgess’s conclusion.

If Aziel Burgess prescribed the right treatment, Carson Flores would leave immediately, as if he had never been there.

After deliberating for a long time and then taking the pulse, channeling Inner Qi into the body for a diagnostic guidance, and after a series of examinations, Aziel Burgess withdrew his hand and said with a serious tone, ”The life force has not completely dissipated, but only a thread remains. To expand this single thread into a thriving vitality is extremely difficult.”

An anxious Kylie Martinez asked, ”So, can it be treated or not?”

Aziel Burgess frowned, ”It’s difficult. For the treatment, medicinal baths, oral ingestion, and acupuncture are indispensable. Among them, acupuncture stimulation is essential to boost vitality. Although my specialty, the Blazing Needle, ranks sixth among the extraordinary needles of the world, it’s not the best for regulating vitality. Some needle techniques don’t suit the condition. If I go ahead with the treatment, I estimate that I could only restore him to ten to twenty percent of a normal person’s state. As for conceiving, it’ll depend on fate.”

Kylie Martinez frowned, ”Only ten to twenty percent? That’s too low!”

Kylan Martinez asked, ”You mentioned that the needle technique isn’t quite right. So which technique would be appropriate, and who would know it?”

Aziel Burgess replied, ”Regarding vital energy regulation, the foremost is the Guanyin Needle, ranked first among the marvelous needles, hailed as ’When Guanyin appears, Yama disperses.’ Unfortunately, that technique has long been lost. Second would be the Resuscitation Technique, which ranks third. However, the Resuscitation Technique is extremely difficult, and to my knowledge, there are no more than a handful of people in the world who can perform it...”
