The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Senior brother?

Carson Flores instinctively thought of Benson Bernard. Back when they were at Nutwood Mountain, the Sect Master didn’t handle things, and it was Benson Bernard who upheld the dignity of the Sect.

”Where has the senior gone? Can you contact him?”

Kaelithra Nixon smiled and said, ”Exploring new worlds. However, you don’t need to worry. He left a magical treasure in the Sect. Through this magical treasure, we can teleport messages to him. We can inform him of your visit, but whether he wishes to return, we cannot be certain.”

Carson Flores expressed gratitude, ”Thank you for the trouble.”

Kaelithra Nixon smiled and said, ”You’re welcome. The Sect Master appreciates you quite a lot. He even told us that someone like you, born in a small place with no background, growing into a Great Land Immortal in less than a hundred years, is extremely talented.”

Carson Flores felt at ease; it seemed True Sage Grand Void genuinely appreciated him, perhaps partly due to the previous owner’s connection with the Mirror of Elemental Harmony.

”Wait a moment, I’ll go find the senior brother and send the message to the Sect Master.”

Kaelithra Nixon said, and immediately added, ”That communication treasure is managed by the senior brother.”

Carson Flores stood up, thanked, ”Thank you, Fairy!”

Kaelithra Nixon went for about an hour. When returning, she was no longer alone, but accompanied by a refined middle-aged man who had a gentle and balanced demeanor, giving an impression as smooth and warm as jade.

”Fellow Flores, we sent the message to the Sect Master. He replied that he is at a critical moment and cannot leave, asking the senior brother to host you on his behalf. If you have any questions, you can tell the senior brother directly.”

Kaelithra Nixon pointed to the middle-aged man beside her, ”This is our Grand Void Mountain’s senior brother, Halvion Ward.”

Halvion Ward?

Such an elegant name!

This name suits its owner perfectly!

Carson Flores bowed with hands in salute, ”Greetings, Senior Brother Ward!”

Since he addresses True Sage Grand Void as ’senior,’ and considering his own status as a Supreme Immortal, addressing Halvion Ward as senior brother was quite appropriate.

Halvion Ward smiled warmly and said, ”Hello, Mr. Flores. Welcome to Grand Void Mountain. If you’re not pressed for time, why not stay for a while? After all, you’ve come a long way, and the journey must have been tiring. Rest for now, and we’ll discuss the main topics later.”

Carson Flores agreed accordingly, as he indeed was not rushed, ”Then I shall impose!”

Halvion Ward personally arranged an empty pavilion for Carson Flores as a residence, allowing him to rest briefly. In the evening, he invited Carson Flores to dinner together.

True Sage Grand Void has twelve disciples, and currently, only four are present: senior brother Halvion Ward, fifth sister Emily York, seventh brother Varyn, and young sister Kaelithra Nixon.

They, along with Carson Flores, sat at a table. The dishes were rather abundant, consisting of various peculiar delicacies.

Kaelithra Nixon’s eyes lit up, ”Carson, you’re the lucky one today. Senior brother personally cooked, using top-quality ingredients. It’s a feast!”

Carson Flores, surprised, looked at Halvion Ward, ”Senior brother Ward, you enjoy cooking as well?”

Halvion Ward laughed, ”I wouldn’t say I enjoy cooking. It’s just that I used to travel extensively with our Master. Encountering good ingredients, one couldn’t simply waste them, right? So, I learned to cook. After cooking frequently, I naturally got the hang of it. Fellow Flores, from your tone, it seems you’re also quite adept in this field?”

Carson Flores chuckled, ”I used to be alone outside often. Back then, I was still a mortal and had to eat and drink. So, I cooked for myself, and over time, I learned to make some simple dishes. Upon entering the Immortal Cultivation World, I haven’t abandoned this habit. Whenever I encounter good ingredients, I also collect and preserve them. When alone or in gatherings with a few friends, I might cook something tasty. But my skills certainly can’t compare to Senior Brother Ward’s.”

Halvion Ward laughed, ”The art of cuisine is stored in the heart. Who’s truly better or worse? When we have time, let’s chat more about the culinary path.”

Carson Flores lowered his posture considerably, ”Sure, I’d love to learn from Senior Brother Ward.”

Halvion Ward spoke modestly, without a tone of superiority, lightly jesting, ”Share and learn, that’s all.”

With a table full of various dishes, Carson Flores only recognized two types, sighed, ”In such a vast world, there are so many wondrous items. Among so many ingredients, I recognize only two types. The places I’ve been and the Immortal Realm items I’ve seen, are still far too few.”

Fifth sister Emily York laughed softly, ”Master is always venturing out, having visited countless new worlds. There are too many good ingredients he hasn’t yet encountered. Although he’s not fond of cooking, whenever he finds good ingredients, he collects them and brings them back for the senior brother. So, while it’s uncertain what else we might possess on Grand Void Mountain, the diverse array of top-tier ingredients are in abundance.”

Carson Flores gazed at the four people in front of him, feeling quite a complex emotion.

True Sage Grand Void and his twelve disciples, presumably, aren’t much different from a family. Judging by the size of this table, they probably eat together on one table regularly.

Such scenes are rare in the Immortal Realm but highlight the uniqueness of Grand Void Mountain.

They truly are spiritual masters!
