The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

”Bang!”

The Pill Furnace lid flew open, a ray of splendid light shot out, accompanied by a vermilion Dan Pill.

Sea Soul Pill!

Success!

The Aarav Family Alchemist’s face was full of bewilderment and disappointment, how could it have succeeded?

This is a high-order elixir, the Sea Soul Pill, with an extremely high difficulty, really.

This young Alchemist simply pondered for three days, then refined it three times, and just succeeded like this?

This is so outrageous.

The Valentine Family Alchemist’s face was also filled with disbelief, he was already mentally prepared for Carson Flores’ failure, but Carson Flores actually succeeded instead.

The Sea Soul Pill on the porcelain plate had even coloration, emitting a few wisps of Dan fragrance like smoke.

Carson Flores breathed a sigh of relief, stood up, looked at the Sea Soul Pill, then placed it into a bottle specifically for sealing elixirs, smiled at the two supervising Pill Masters: ”Luckily, it succeeded!”

Very soon, Cyprian Valentine, Darius Aarav and others all gathered in the courtyard, Eamon Aarav also came out from the alchemy room, but his face did not look good.

Darius Aarav asked: ”Eamon Aarav, how goes it?”

Eamon Aarav said dejectedly: ”Failed, just a bit short, the time was too brief, five days was too short, if you gave me a bit more time, at most refining three more furnaces, I would definitely succeed.”

Darius Aarav frowned slightly, turning his gaze to Carson Flores on the other side: ”Finnian Roth, how about you?”

Carson Flores smiled faintly: ”By luck, at the last moment, with the last batch of materials, it succeeded.”

Succeeded?

A surprise flickered in Darius Aarav’s eyes, Eamon Aarav actually lost?

Lost to such a young Alchemist?

Eamon Aarav’s eyes widened in disbelief: ”How is this possible, that was the Sea Soul Pill, you only had three batches of materials, how could you succeed in refining it...”

His words were cut short, because his gaze landed on the Aarav Family Alchemist supervising the process, who nodded to him, confirming the truth of the matter.

Eamon Aarav’s expression turned extremely unpleasant, he had looked down on Carson Flores before, but now he had lost.

He didn’t succeed in refining the Valentine Family’s Elixir Formula, but Carson Flores did.

The result was evident, incontrovertible.

Thinking back to when he had mockingly disparaged Carson Flores from a high place, while Carson Flores humbly sought to learn from him, Eamon Aarav wished there were a hole in the ground he could crawl into.

Cyprian Valentine’s eyes held undisguised delight, yet his words were humble: ”You actually succeeded? You were indeed fortunate...”

Carson Flores nodded: ”Yes, Family Head, if it weren’t for luck, I would have failed the last time too.”

Lucky?

The Pill Masters present each had subtle expressions; can this truly be attributed to luck?

Though understanding that you wish to express humility as the victor, still, these words seem somewhat untrue.

Darius Aarav smiled but somewhat reluctantly: ”Truly a new generation surpassing the old, impressive, impressive!”

Upon confirming the winner and loser, there were no further matters concerning Carson Flores.

Cyprian Valentine walked up to Carson Flores and patted his shoulder: ”Well done, you should rest well now.”

”Okay!”

Carson Flores returned to his residence, having been intensely focused in thought and alchemy these past five days, he indeed felt fatigued.

After resting for a while, a Maiden came to fetch him, leading Carson Flores to Cyprian Valentine’s abode.

Cyprian Valentine saw Carson Flores and smiled: ”Finnian Roth, nicely done, haha!”

Carson Flores responded humbly: ”By luck!”

”Victory is due to skill, where is there luck? That is the Sea Soul Pill, it can’t be refined by luck... Come, sit!”

Cyprian Valentine was enthusiastic, invited Carson Flores to sit, then said with a smile: ”I’ve already explained the matter to you, you’ve defeated Eamon Aarav, therefore you should be the one to gather the Heavenly Secret Profound Divine Water, are you prepared?”

Carson Flores expressed confusion: ”How should it be done, I am somewhat unclear?”

Cyprian Valentine smiled: ”Scorch rivers and boil seas, we will use a magical treasure to burn dry the lake’s water entirely, then you extract the mixed Heavenly Secret Profound Divine Water, it’s not complicated.”

Carson Flores laughed: ”As long as it’s uncomplicated, otherwise I fear I might fail and ruin the Family Head’s plans.”

Cyprian Valentine laughed heartily: ”You are an alchemy genius, you must have confidence in yourself, afterward I’ll find more premium elixir formulas and materials for you, allowing you to continue enhancing your alchemy prowess, striving to become a Grandmaster of the Pill Path in the North Sea and even the Ten Thousand Immortals Domain!”

Carson Flores feigned surprise and saluted: ”Thank you, Family Head!”

Cyprian Valentine took out a box, handed it to Carson Flores: ”Open and see?”

Carson Flores felt a surge of delight, could it be inside this box is the Hidden God White Jade Stem he has sought?

Carson Flores feigned confusion as he opened the box, noticing a large chunk like a Jade Stone, with faintly flowing light shimmer, very dazzling.

Carson Flores looked up in surprise: ”This is... Hidden God White Jade Stem?”

Cyprian Valentine smiled: ”Yes, these past few days I’ve procured it for you, although it required some favors, since I promised you, I will definitely get it done...”
