Chapter 273: Chapter 271: Soul Nourishing Pill to Repair the Primordial Spirit

"No, no... It’s our honor to do things for you, Madam. How could we possibly accept a reward?"

"That’s right. It’s only natural that we serve you, Madam. There’s no need for any reward."

Celeste Grant waved her hand.

"Take it and get some drinks. Don’t be polite."

Their faces filled with emotion, the men placed their hands over their hearts and bowed slightly.

"Your humble servants thank you for the reward, Madam."

"Thank you for the reward, Madam."

"We swear to serve you to the death, Madam."

’As expected of the wealthiest lady in the Demonic Sects! She gives out Spirit Stones for drinks by the chestful.’

’But this... this is so many Spirit Stones! Thank you, Madam, for your generosity! We’d run through a brick wall for you!’

Celeste Grant waved her hand dismissively.

"Alright, you’re all dismissed."

The group responded in unison.

"Yes, Madam! If you need anything in the future, please do not hesitate to summon us."

"I will."

In just a moment, their figures vanished, taking the Madam’s reward with them.

After the disciples from the Bloodfiend Den departed, Celeste Grant also left.

Back in the Bloodfiend Den, Elder Sawyer had already received his sister’s body from the female disciple. After thanking her, he immediately took his sister’s body back to his own residence. He began setting up an Array, preparing to return his sister’s Primordial Spirit to her body.

When Celeste Grant returned, she went over to check on the situation. She saw Elder Sawyer setting up an Array in his courtyard, with his sister’s body lying flat, levitating within it.

Yana and the others were nearby helping, and Elder Lawson was there as well.

She walked up, took a look, and asked, "Elder Sawyer, how are things going?"

Elder Sawyer bowed slightly and replied, "Thank you for your concern, Madam. Everything is going smoothly. My sister should be able to return to her body shortly."

Hearing this, Celeste Grant, who was standing beside the Array, nodded slightly.

"That’s good to hear."

Under Elder Sawyer’s guidance, Yana’s mother’s Primordial Spirit soon emerged from the Seven-star Ladybug. The spectral image of her Primordial Spirit floated in the air, its gaze turning toward Celeste Grant. After bowing in gratitude, the Primordial Spirit returned to its body.

Nature’s spiritual energy converged on the spot.

At the same time, Yana’s mother’s body continued to levitate within the Array, wreathed in Immortal Spirit Qi.

Her Primordial Spirit had returned to her body. All that was left was for her to awaken.

After waiting for a while, she still hadn’t woken up.

Celeste Grant grew a little concerned.

"Why isn’t she awake yet?"

Elder Sawyer looked at his sister, his expression full of heartache. "Her Primordial Spirit is very weak. It’s a struggle for her to control this body."

Following his gaze, Celeste Grant’s eyes fell upon Yana’s mother.

She swept her Divine Sense over the body. Although the Primordial Spirit had returned, its aura was faint and ephemeral. The soul body was incomplete and had not yet been fully restored.

"Her aura is weak and her soul body is damaged. Her Primordial Spirit is indeed too feeble. It needs to be carefully nourished."

As she said this, Celeste Grant raised a finger, as if she’d just remembered something. "Hmm... I recall that when I was organizing the Elixir Pills last time, there were a few Eighth Grade Soul Nourishing Pills in the repository. Yana, go to the storehouse and fetch one for your mother."

An Eighth-grade Elixir was a treasure of the Sect. Even in the Major Sects, someone at the elder level would have no qualification to receive one unless they had made an immense contribution to their Sect.

He had originally planned to use his past merits to request one for his sister. He never imagined that before he could even mention it, the Madam would just give one to them.

In that moment, Elder Sawyer’s eyes immediately reddened.

’It is the honor of our Norgath Clan to follow The Exalted One and to have met such a kind Madam. An Eighth-grade Elixir... even with the full might of our clan, we might not be able to gather all the necessary medicinal ingredients.’

"This subordinate... thanks the Madam for bestowing this Elixir Pill."

An Eighth-grade Elixir. For his sister’s sake, he could not refuse.

Yvonne Sawyer came to her senses and hurriedly dropped to her knees with a THUD. "Thank... This subordinate thanks the Madam for bestowing this Elixir Pill."

Standing beside them, Victor Rhodes dazedly knelt as well, a single thought running through his mind: ’An Eighth-grade Elixir... What an astonishingly generous gift.’

"Madam, you are as kind-hearted as you are beautiful. Thank you for bestowing this Elixir Pill to save my mother-in-law. From now on, Yana’s life and mine are yours to command. We swear to serve The Exalted One and you, Madam, to the death."

Celeste Grant reached out and helped Elder Sawyer to his feet.

"Elder Sawyer, please rise. Yana, you and Victor get up as well."

Looking at Elder Sawyer standing before her, Celeste Grant reached out and gently patted his shoulder.

"In my eyes, while Elixir Pills are precious, they are nothing compared to all of you. Your Norgath Witch Clan has always been unwaveringly loyal to the Bloodfiend Den. And you, Elder Sawyer, you are diligent and conscientious, willing to go through hell and back for our Bloodfiend Den. I have seen all the contributions you’ve made. So it’s not just me—if The Exalted One were here, I’m certain he would feel the same way. You’ve earned this."

’As a good boss, ahem, one must know how to serve up some chicken soup for the soul. Of course, when it’s time to give real rewards, I’m more than willing to do that, too.’

Tears of gratitude streamed down Elder Sawyer’s face.

"Madam... I never imagined you held me in such high regard."

’Suddenly, he felt he could work for several more millennia. As long as he wasn’t dead, he would work himself to the bone.’

He was incredibly moved by this thought.

Elder Sawyer bowed to Celeste Grant.

"This subordinate will not fail to live up to your high regard, Madam."

"Of course. Keep up the good work."

"You two as well."

Yvonne Sawyer grasped her husband’s hand, a smile gracing her face.

"Yes, Madam."

"Yana, go get the Soul Nourishing Pill first, and give it to your mother."

"This subordinate will go at once."

Yana’s mother had not yet awakened.

But she could hear everything that was happening.

’She never expected this Madam would be willing to use such a priceless, treasure-grade Elixir Pill on her.’

’It seemed their Norgath Witch Clan had found a powerful patron. Her elder brother truly hadn’t followed the wrong person.’

’Still, an Eighth-grade Elixir... It was truly too precious. Even she felt she was unworthy of it. It looked like once she recovered, she would have to pledge her undying loyalty, or she would be letting down the Elixir Pill itself.’

A short while later, Yvonne Sawyer returned with the Elixir Pill.

"Uncle, I’ve brought the Elixir Pill."

Elder Sawyer reached out to take it, his hands trembling.

With this Soul Nourishing Pill, there was hope for his sister’s Primordial Spirit to be mended. Thanking Celeste Grant once more, he carried the Elixir Pill and walked into the Array.

He opened the box.

The aroma.

So rich.

The Elixir Pill inside the box emanated a faint purple Spiritual Energy. Just smelling it calmed the mind and stabilized the Divine Soul. An Eighth-grade Elixir was truly a rare treasure in this world.

He took out the Elixir Pill and fed it to his sister. The moment the pill entered her mouth, a layer of protective purple qi instantly appeared, enveloping her body.

Standing outside the Array, Celeste Grant swept her Divine Sense over the body.

She could clearly sense that Yana’s mother’s damaged soul body was beginning to repair itself, and that the woman herself had begun to guide her own Cultivation. As a result, her originally weak soul body started to solidify.

’So this is an Eighth-grade Elixir. It’s so powerful.’

After a moment, the aura around her body receded.

Yana’s mother finally opened her eyes.

"Mother, you’re awake!"
