The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 1491: Chapter 1491: You Looked at Me Twice, That’s Not Fair!

”Thirty-something? Middle Stage Human Immortal?”

Theo Eaton nodded, ”A cultivation prodigy.”

Carson Flores replied, ”My talent is limited, it’s just that I’ve been fortunate.”

Selah Ellison Fairy curled her lips slightly but remained silent.

Theo Eaton held the Jade Slip in hand, pondering for a moment before saying, ”I can teach him, and won’t hold anything back. But I can’t guarantee he’ll learn. You know, alchemy also requires talent. People gifted in cultivation might not necessarily be talented in alchemy...”

Selah Ellison Fairy nodded, ”You just teach him sincerely, without reserve. Whether he can learn or not depends on his own fate. Besides, this teaching is merely a transaction; you’re not considered his mentor.”

Theo Eaton furrowed his brows, ”Does he already have a mentor?”

Selah Ellison Fairy smiled lightly, ”His mentor no longer resides within the Thunder Immortal Realm.”

Theo Eaton suddenly understood and nodded readily, ”Alright, it’s a deal. I understand.”

Not residing in the Thunder Immortal Realm could be interpreted as traveling to other Immortal Domains. However, Selah Ellison Fairy deliberately mentioned this, which clearly suggested only one explanation — Carson Flores’ mentor was already at the Great Land Supreme level, having departed the Thunder Immortal Realm.

Having a mentor at the level above the Great Land, naturally, he wouldn’t want to take on another mentor. This was understandable.

A transaction, mutual consent—it made sense. After all, this was the Primitive Pill Scripture, not a loss!

”Alright, I have matters to attend to today. Tomorrow, I’ll bring him over.”

Theo Eaton easily nodded, ”Good!”

Theo Eaton turned and entered the valley, while Carson Flores glanced sideways at Selah Ellison Fairy.

Selah Ellison Fairy’s expression suddenly turned slightly unnatural. She turned away and avoided Carson Flores’ gaze, ”I’m heading to the nearby city to buy some things. You... accompany me.”

Carson Flores gave it little thought. Although his relationship with Selah Ellison Fairy was more like friendship, nominally, wasn’t he still her subordinate?

The two left the valley and flew for hundreds of miles, soon spotting a large city.

They descended and, like ordinary people, entered through the city gates.

Selah Ellison Fairy visited two pharmacies but bought nothing.

”The city likely doesn’t have the medicinal ingredients required for the Nine Revolutions Great Land Pill. If they did, they’d probably have been taken long ago. After all, even if not used for refining the Nine Revolutions Great Land Pill, those ingredients have other applications...”

Selah Ellison Fairy responded with an absent-minded ”Hmm” and casually added, ”Just wandering around, wasn’t expecting much... Forget it, let’s eat.”

Not shopping anymore?

Wasn’t she here to buy things?

Carson Flores didn’t ask further. He vaguely understood—today might just be his last day with Selah Ellison Fairy.

Had she not wanted to purchase something, he would’ve likely already been taken into the valley by Theo Eaton, parting ways with Selah Ellison Fairy directly.

His encounter with Selah Ellison Fairy had been peculiar, but after spending so much time together, especially with her treating him so kindly, it would be dishonest to say there were no feelings in his heart.

Truth be told, Selah Ellison Fairy, such a beautiful woman, being around her day and night for so long—now facing separation—any normal man would feel a sense of loss.

During dinner, Selah Ellison Fairy spoke very little, seemingly absent in her thoughts. Carson Flores, his heart also mildly despondent, similarly remained quiet.

The sky had darkened. They booked two rooms at an inn.

After bathing, Carson Flores lay on his bed, unable to fall asleep. His mind was a chaotic tangle, though he couldn’t pinpoint why.

”Still awake? If you are, come over.”

While tossing and turning, Carson Flores suddenly heard Selah Ellison Fairy’s cool voice echo in his mind.

Go over?

Carson Flores turned over and got up, a slight look of confusion crossing his face.

At this hour, asking him to come—was there something she wanted to convey?

Carson Flores arrived at Selah Ellison Fairy’s door and raised his hand, gently knocking. The door silently opened.

Inside, there was no light. Only faint moonlight streamed through the half-opened window.

Misty and enigmatic.

Selah Ellison Fairy wasn’t seated at the table but perched on the edge of the bed, her gaze fixed on the door.

Carson Flores stepped into the room, instinctively speaking, ”Fairy, why don’t you light the lamp—”

”Creak!”

The door behind Carson Flores suddenly closed.

Carson Flores started slightly, an unusual feeling flickering through his heart.

Alone man and woman, in the dark... What is this?

”Fairy?”

Selah Ellison Fairy rose and walked over to sit at the table, ”Sit.”

Carson Flores sat before Selah Ellison Fairy, guessing to himself—was there something secretive she needed to say that wouldn’t easily come out with the light on?

”Tomorrow morning, I’ll leave. You’ll return and seek out Theo Eaton yourself.”

Carson Flores paused for two seconds before softly replying, ”I’ll escort you.”

”No need.”

Selah Ellison Fairy’s response was indifferent, her eyes resting on Carson Flores’ face. ”Twice already, you’ve seen my body...”

Carson Flores was directly stunned by Selah Ellison Fairy’s remark, momentarily at a loss for words. ”That... erm, well, it was a special circumstance, unintentional, and besides... erm...”

Selah Ellison Fairy calmly interrupted, ”Besides, my body was covered with wounds and blood, unsightly, wasn’t it?”

Carson Flores, his thoughts exposed, grew increasingly awkward. But it was irrefutable, so he straightforwardly admitted, ”I’ll keep it secret; I won’t speak of it recklessly.”

”No!”

Selah Ellison Fairy stood up, facing Carson Flores, ”It’s unfair!”
