The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 2309: Chapter 2309: Carson Flores, You Still Claim to Be a Loose Cultivator!

Selric Roth just saw that previously, that person was aloof while gambling, seemingly indifferent to others. However, after Carson Flores sat over, they conversed quite warmly with him.

This Carson Flores must have some background!

Selric Roth always prided himself on his keen insight, and it’s precisely this insight that has helped him advance step by step to where he is today.

At the dock, Selric Roth observed Carson Flores and his two companions. From their conversation and behavior, he deduced that these three must have quite a background. After all, when discussing some sensitive topics, they spoke with a natural confidence, unlike ordinary cultivators who would be cautious to avoid trouble.

If not for this reason, why would Selric Roth be proactive in striking up a conversation and forging a connection?

Do you really think it’s just for some spending capacity?

That’s not the case!

Selric Roth didn’t really expect to gain any immediate benefits from befriending someone. It was purely an instinctive behavior ingrained in him.

While traveling abroad, it’s better to make more friends and fewer enemies. More friends mean more paths!

Selric Roth complimented, ”It seems Fellow Flores has quite a background. I’m calling you Brother Flores. Is it too presumptuous?”

Carson Flores laughed heartily, ”Not at all presumptuous. I’m young, calling me little brother is quite normal. I don’t have much of a background, just a loose cultivator. I only once had some dealings with a senior from Dragon Cloud Mountain, nothing more.”

Loose cultivator?

Selric Roth was skeptical, but he wasn’t foolish enough to expose it.

When someone states it as such, would you insist on exposing them to show off how informed you are?

”Then I won’t hold back, Brother Flores. Since you don’t want to gamble anymore, let’s check out something else...”

”Sure!”

The three of them toured the entire ship, finding that besides gambling, there were indeed many other entertainment activities, some even quite thrilling. There was even an underground fighting competition.

The fighting arena, naturally, wasn’t on the ship but on the vast sea, allowing spectators to enjoy extremely violent battles among immortals, and even place bets.

While they were exploring, a beam of light flew overhead and stopped above Carson Flores.

Carson Flores reached out and caught it; it was a message from Master Youhe.

”Fellow Flores, I mentioned your invitation. Eight people are willing to participate, including the Dragon Mountain Sect representative I mentioned before, Profound River. He originally didn’t want to come, but after learning that the Grand Uncle wants to take you as a disciple, he changed his mind...”

Are they planning to test me in person?

Carson Flores was open-minded and didn’t feel nervous.

When it comes to taking disciples, even if the mentor has the upper hand, for true geniuses hoping to become disciples, wouldn’t the mentors scramble to accept them?

For the sake of recruiting a talented disciple, isn’t sects fighting over them a common occurrence?

Even though I may not be very gifted, that doesn’t mean I don’t have the right to refuse.

Even Master Floating Cloud hasn’t said anything.

After reading the message, Carson Flores turned to Selah Ellison, ”Eight people are coming, including the Dragon Mountain Sect representative Profound River. You’re coming with me, right?”

Selah Ellison smiled sweetly, ”Of course.”

Selric Roth was standing nearby, utterly confused. What’s going on?

The Dragon Mountain Sect representative Profound River?

Isn’t he the most outstanding disciple of the Dragon Mountain Sect in hundreds of years?

Carson Flores proactively explained to Selric Roth, ”Earlier, I won quite a few spirit stones with the help of Master Youhe. Plus, since I have some connections with a senior from Dragon Cloud Mountain, I said I’d invite all the Three Masters of Dragon Mountain for a meal, but it turns out eight are coming...”

Selric Roth’s pupils contracted slightly. Wow, is he really that impressive?

Inviting all the Three Masters of Dragon Mountain for a meal?

And eight showed up?

Carson Flores, you still claim to be a loose cultivator!

Does the Dragon Mountain Sect really care about a meal like yours? Their attendance depends on who the inviter is, right? Whether the inviter has significant enough influence?

If I were to offer to invite all the Three Master’s delegation for a meal, they’d probably just roll their eyes and tell me to get lost.

Carson Flores has never even met those people, not even Master Youhe was familiar before. But under these circumstances, when Carson Flores extended his invitation, eight people agreed to attend, including Profound River!

Selric Roth’s expression slightly changed. It seemed he had indeed made an outstanding connection today.

Carson Flores apologized, ”Originally, I wanted to treat you to dinner today, Roth, but...”

”No problem, no problem!”

Selric Roth interjected before Carson Flores could finish, ”You go ahead. This journey is long, we have plenty of time, no need to rush.”

Carson Flores smiled, ”Alright, then we’ll catch up later, Roth.”

Of course, Selric Roth wanted to join the gathering tonight, but he knew better than to make such a request. Otherwise, it could make everyone uncomfortable.

The Dragon Mountain Sect disciples gave face to Carson Flores, but what was he?

Carson Flores had connections with them, and tonight’s gathering was personal. He, as an outsider, would just be intruding.

Though Selric Roth expressed himself this way, inside he had already decided to foster a stronger friendship with Carson Flores later on.

For someone esteemed by all the Three Masters of Dragon Mountain, how could they be anything but remarkable?

A big shot!

Absolutely a big shot!
