The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Kaelithra Nixon did not use flight but led Carson Flores along the mountain path, walking slowly with a calm demeanor, neither anxious nor impatient.

”We disciples follow our mentor in cultivation, and besides cultivation, each has their own hobby for research. I enjoy medical practice, and the essence of it is people, requiring practical operation. So I use my spare time to treat patients with various rare and incurable diseases, improving my medical practice.”

Carson Flores asked curiously, ”Where do these people come from?”

Kaelithra Nixon replied with a smile, ”Most are patients from nearby towns. I have the mayor of the town at the mountain’s foot help organize them. For common ailments, I give them some pills to take at home. For severe illnesses, they wait, and I make time to treat them collectively.”

”For common people’s ailments, even incurable ones, using Immortal Spirit Qi and the power of elixirs often leads to improvement or prolongs life, although not completely curing. Through this, I have practiced a lot of medical theories.”

”Common people are easier to heal; immortals, however, are not so easy. Their bodies have gone through refinement and are seemingly immune to diseases. Once sick, they are extremely difficult to treat.”

Carson Flores laughed in agreement, ”Indeed, back when I was still a mortal, I was considered a top physician in the Mortal Realm. I could treat many rare diseases others couldn’t. But after becoming a cultivator, I realized that while medical theories align, they differ greatly, and there are many diseases I couldn’t treat anymore.”

Kaelithra Nixon’s eyes lit up, seemingly finding a kindred spirit, ”You were a physician before?”

Carson Flores nodded, ”Yes, a physician from the Mortal Realm. Later, I also learned alchemy and some medical practice from others, so I’m somewhat a half-baked Immortal Realm physician, though not particularly skilled.”

Kaelithra Nixon asked curiously, ”How is your alchemy skill?”

”Alchemy, it’s alright.”

Carson Flores chuckled, ”Slightly better than my medical practice.”

Kaelithra Nixon chuckled lightly, ”You’re not very old, but you know quite a bit.”

Carson Flores replied, ”Not too young either. Not counting before, even recently I’ve spent significant time on travels, not cultivating much, feeling like I’m wasting life. I hope one day I’ll master the world-crossing skills like seniors, and there’ll be no need to toil.”

Kaelithra Nixon lightly laughed, ”Crossing the starry sky is not so easy. You need an innate divine ability with spatial attribute and the corresponding cultivation technique. Most importantly, there needs to be a powerful spatial-type magical treasure. Only by combining all these can you achieve such an effect. Not everyone can cross the Star River and the Immortal Domains.”

Carson Flores observed Grand Void Mountain, which was not majestic or extraordinary, lacking even a hanging waterfall or soaring spirit cranes. A mild white mist floated in the mountains with houses faintly revealing within.

Nothing was like grand golden halls or cave mansions; just simple wooden houses, some with three or four flat rooms, others were delicate two or three-story wooden pavilions.

Carson Flores silently marveled in his heart. True Sage Grand Void is so renowned and powerful, yet his residence is so simple, truly fitting the phrase ”The Great Path is Simple.”

”You folks live really simply here; it’s truly ’The mountain’s height doesn’t matter, it’s renowned for having immortals’!”

Kaelithra Nixon’s eyes lit up, ”The mountain’s height doesn’t matter, it’s renowned for having immortals; I like this phrase. The mentor always teaches us that immortal cultivation is essentially cultivating the mind. If the mind is not cultivated properly, the stronger one’s power, the easier it is to fall into the Demon Path. So our lives are relatively simple, all learned from the mentor.”

Kaelithra Nixon looked Carson Flores up and down with a smile, ”I can tell you’re similar to the mentor, no wonder he appreciates you so much.”

Carson Flores blinked and asked curiously, ”How can you speak of the Mirror of Elemental Harmony, did the True Sage have already told you about me?”

Kaelithra Nixon chuckled with lips curled, ”Last time, when the mentor crossed the Immortal Domains to rescue you, he was giving us a lecture, and he vanished in front of us. Naturally, we were curious when he returned. The mentor didn’t hide from us and told us about you...”

Carson Flores breathed a sigh of relief, well, everyone knows about him now; I don’t need to explain to each one.

”Your Grand Void Mountain doesn’t seem to have many people; does everyone live here every day?”

At this point, the two had reached a delicate two-story building hidden amid pine trees. Kaelithra Nixon gestured, ”The mentor is not here; come to my place first and rest a bit.”

”Alright!”

Kaelithra Nixon led Carson Flores inside, then answered his previous question, ”The mentor explores new worlds most of the year. Aside from a few maidens on the mountain, there are twelve of us, though the senior brothers and sisters are not always here, they roam, cultivate, and help the world usually, leaving just a few senior brothers and sisters on the mountain.”

After pausing briefly, Kaelithra Nixon added, ”The eldest brother is always here. If the mentor is away for a long time, he replaces the mentor in teaching us. He has been initiated the longest and is the most skilled, knowing everything...”
