The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 383: Chapter 383: A Desperate Fight to the Death? She Doesn’t Dare_1

When Carson Flores reappeared at the Martial Battle Arena, everyone’s gaze towards him was entirely different from before.

A 27-year-old Great Grandmaster with supreme medical skills!

He single-handedly overpowered the Divine Cloudy Sect, beating them from the youngest to the eldest, and eventually even made the Innate Grandmaster of the Divine Cloudy Sect kneel to admit his wrongs!

Such a counterattack was satisfying for all to witness and also added a few more points of admiration towards Carson Flores.

Although Great Grandmasters are formidable, he dared to challenge the Divine Cloudy Sect, which had three Innate Grandmasters. Such a person, with an unbending spirit, achieved what others could not, and naturally deserved admiration.

Castiel Martinez and others came forward to greet him, and Kylie Martinez hurriedly asked, ”So, did you save him?”

Carson Flores smiled and said, ”Of course I saved him, otherwise, would they let me walk out unscathed?”

Everyone sighed in relief. Castiel Martinez instructed, ”But do be careful with Rocky Stein; she’s not one to be broad-minded. You cured her, but she may not be grateful and might try to get revenge. Be cautious.”

Taylor Johnston nodded and said, ”Right, you made her kneel before everyone, and she’s used to being overbearing. With her strong power, she definitely can’t swallow that pride.”

Carson Flores chuckled, ”No worries, even if she can’t swallow it, she’ll have to. For her own sake, she wouldn’t dare to do anything to me, she might even hope that nothing happens to me.”

Everyone looked puzzled. Kylie Martinez asked, ”Why do you say that? Has someone taken up your cause?”

Carson Flores shook his head, ”No one is taking up my cause. Who would want to offend the Divine Cloudy Sect? Rocky Stein’s illness can only be suppressed and treated, it can’t be completely cured. I reckon there are only three people in the world who can save her, one is in seclusion and doesn’t come out, and another is traveling everywhere and can’t be found...”

Kylan Martinez’s eyes lit up, ”You are the third person, meaning she has to ask you for help if she wants to live?”

Carson Flores nodded, ”Exactly, if I die, she’ll have to die too.”

Shiloh Fitzgerald widened his eyes in shock and said, ”Then aren’t you able to summon her at will? If she disobeys, you just don’t treat her?”

Carson Flores smiled, ”As long as she doesn’t go mad, that should be possible.”

Castiel Martinez laughed heartily, ”That settles it then. She knelt before hundreds of people to save her life. When it’s about staying alive, there’s nothing she wouldn’t do. She doesn’t have the courage for mutual destruction. Besides, the older people get, the more afraid of death they become. At her age, as long as she can live, she would be willing to do anything.”

Taylor Johnston reminded, ”Don’t provoke or humiliate her too much, lest she acts on impulse and decides on mutual destruction out of sheer desperation. It would be troubling for both of you then.”

Carson Flores nodded, ”I understand that... What’s the situation now?”

Castiel Martinez replied, ”The martial battle competition will start this afternoon. Various sects and schools will send out their strongest disciples to compete. Everyone usually looks forward to this event, but after your actions this morning, I think this year’s competition will be rather dull.”

Taylor Johnston chuckled, ”Indeed, after watching your battles with Nash Acedvedo and the one with Rocky Stein, watching these other fights feels rather pointless.”

Carson Flores, having little interest in watching others’ battles, then asked, ”Besides the competition, is there any other activity?”

Taylor Johnston answered, ”Apart from the fights, it’s usually meetings, and then the rest is free time for everyone to have private gatherings, make trades, negotiate various matters. In essence, this gathering is a platform for everyone to get to know each other and to communicate, like an industry forum.”

Castiel Martinez suggested, ”Actually, at your age, Carson, you could participate in the competition. With your strength, becoming the undisputed champion and taking the first place prize would be a given.”

Shiloh Fitzgerald said with a smile, ”Carson being a Great Grandmaster, if he really entered the competition, he could win, but he would definitely be criticized behind his back, and who knows what people would say about him then.”

Carson Flores smiled, ”I just came to broaden my horizons. Let’s forget the competition. I’ve already grabbed enough limelight and don’t want to be pointed at. The deal with the Divine Cloudy Sect is now over for me, I’m going to wander around a bit more and then might leave. You all go about your own business and don’t worry about me.”

After parting with the crowd, Carson Flores returned to his hotel room, preparing to meditate and heal his injuries.

Trevor Knight opened his own suitcase, took out a bottle, and handed it to Carson Flores, containing a pill the size of a thumb.

”This is the Adjusting Essence Pill, used for treating internal injuries. Give it a try.”

Carson Flores took it without demur, smiled, and said, ”Thanks!”

Trevor Knight laughed, ”Don’t mention it, it’s not worth much. Today, you’ve put on a show of sheer dominance, making the lofty Divine Cloudy Sect unable to raise their heads. I was so elated, it felt incredibly invigorating!”

Looking at the pill in hand, Carson Flores asked, ”Do you have any connections for buying medicine? Medicine to aid in cultivation?”

Trevor Knight laughed, ”I sell medicinal materials, so naturally, I know the pharmacists. The Rich Family from Misty Hill City among the Three Sects and Four Families started off with making medicine. I have some business dealings with them. How about I arrange for us to have dinner together tonight?”
