Chapter 546: 540: No Way to Repay

Yes, that’s right. After the verification of both the Illusion-Piercing Eye and Gluttonous Beast, David Jones discovered that as the inheritor of the Ghost God Bloodline, Rossetti’s essence blood possessed a remarkable effect of breaking through levels.

In particular, for the strong ones among Ghosts, it was an extremely nourishing treasure elixir.

However, because the essence blood was extremely difficult to refine and David Jones was worried that extracting too much essence blood would damage Rossetti’s foundation, he only had three drops of her essence blood after researching for so many days.

Without further thought, a flicker of light appeared between David Jones’ fingers from the Star Ring, and an ancient, ink-black cauldron with a mysterious True Dragon coiled around both ears appeared before him.

Afterward, he clapped his palm and controlled the Afterglow Array, causing a light-golden flame to suddenly rise from within the cauldron.

“Almost done!”

Feeling that the temperature of the World-Purifying Cauldron was already enough, David Jones’ thoughts slightly moved and instantly, one elixir after another sunk into the cauldron.

Soon, half an hour passed. Seeing that the Blood-Stabilizing Elixir within the cauldron would soon take form, David Jones took out the Blood Poison Fruit, removed a layer of its petals and threw it into the blood-red, pure medicinal liquid within the cauldron.

“Boom!”

As the Blood Poison Fruit’s petals were added, the boiling medicinal liquid within the cauldron started to evaporate violently. A large amount of poisonous smoke emerged from the World-Purifying Cauldron, turning the jade used to isolate the flame’s temperature above the Alchemy Chamber into pitch-black black stone.

“The dosage of Blood Poison Fruit is still too high.”

Seeing that this alchemy session was about to fail, David Jones calmly released the Arcane Force within his body, activating the cauldron’s attached skill, the “Breath of Earth,” in an attempt to remove the vast amount of impurities within the cauldron before the failure of the elixir in order to achieve success with a single try.

“Buzz!” Time flowed rapidly.

As the moon hung high in the starry sky, the Arcane Force within the Alchemy Chamber suddenly became turbulent, and a dazzling elixir, like a red crystal, condensed abruptly, emitting a misty fragrance.

“Meow!”

Waiting for Daphne to extinguish the last wisp of the golden flame, David Jones reached into the cauldron. The dazzling light within the room disappeared suddenly, and there was now an unblemished, pale red elixir in his palm.

“Not bad. Without activating the Creation Eye, I refined a good-quality Blood-Stabilizing Elixir on my first try.”

Putting the elixir in the Jade Bottle, David Jones pushed open the tightly shut door of the Alchemy Room.

David Jones looked at Clive’s tense face and smiled slightly. He wasn’t afraid that Clive wouldn’t pay him, and he threw the Jade Bottle directly to Clive.

“One pellet is enough for a permanent cure.”

“Thank you, sir.” Clive’s face lit up with joy.

David Jones glanced at Clive, who was becoming more and more respectful, shook his head secretly in his heart, and then walked toward Iris’s bedroom.

He had only walked halfway when he met Martin Houston and the others who had come to the Brown Mansion earlier that day.

Apparently, in order to witness history with their own eyes and confirm that the Blood Transformation Disease could be cured, these strong individuals had stayed in Brown Mansion for an entire day.

The soft glow of fireflies illuminated the pale-pink bedroom. Looking at his granddaughter, who had fallen into a coma again, Clive turned his head to look at David Jones.

“The Blood-Stabilizing Elixir melts in the mouth, so you can just feed it directly.” David Jones reminded him.

Upon hearing this, Clive handed the elixir to the maid, Lily, by his side, indicating for her to feed Iris.

As the Blood-Stabilizing Elixir slowly entered Iris’s lips, her brows suddenly furrowed in the depths of her coma, and a blush of pain spread across her pale, pretty face.

“Ah! It hurts!”

Iris suddenly woke up and sat up.

At this moment, her cheeks, cheekbone area, and snowy white arms were covered with lots of bulging veins, and her forehead was covered in fine beads of sweat.

Clive Brown looked at David Jones with slight urgency, but seeing the calmness on his face, he forcibly suppressed the anxiety in his heart.

“Boom!”

Intense pain persisted in Iris Brown for about ten minutes, and then, under everyone’s astonished gaze, an aura much stronger than before gushed out from her body.

“She’s advanced to the Ghost Warlord level!”

Strong ones present exchanged glances, their eyes showing a touch of fervor.

Mr. Jones was right, Blood Transformation Disease can turn a disaster into a blessing and increase one’s strength after its cure. It seems that they would need to find talented individuals with the disease within their clan to heavily cultivate.

“What a coincidence?”

Watching the breakthrough of Iris Brown in front of him and feeling the admiring glances around, David Jones’s heart skipped a beat as he explained.

“The Blood-Stabilizing Elixir only has healing power, without the miraculous effect of aiding in a breakthrough. Miss Iris’s breakthrough should be due to her solid foundation built through hard work, which finally burst forth.”

However, listening to David Jones’s explanation, the strong ones present showed ambiguous smiles.

Since Blood Dragon Emperor-Promoting Elixir could enhance a patient’s potential and grant them Ghost Emperor qualifications, it was not strange that the Blood-Stabilizing Elixir could help a patient pass the small threshold of Ghost Warlord.

“Huff!”

Iris Brown slowly opened her palm and clenched it into a fist, feeling the power within her body that far exceeded her previous strength. A thick gratitude appeared on her pretty face.

People only value what they have when they lose it.

Although she only experienced a single day of being bedridden and unable to move, filled with weakness, and only waiting for death, it felt as if she had gone through a long year. Even in her dreams, she had thoughts of giving up.

“Thank you, Sir, for your help. I have nothing to offer in return. I am willing to serve at your side as your maidservant, following your every command.”

“Ah???”

Looking at the shyness on Iris Brown’s face, David Jones was dumbfounded and glanced at Clive Brown subconsciously.

What was going on? The offer from this young girl was generous, but how could a Ghost Warlord realm maidservant compare to the value of three precious King Level elixirs?

“My granddaughter must have gone crazy!” This was the first thought that crossed Clive Brown’s mind.

How absurd! As the captain of Team Kamui, how could he allow his own granddaughter to be a maidservant, at the very least she should have a proper position, perhaps as a wife.

However, when he saw the sly glance his granddaughter stole in his direction, he was startled with sudden understanding. He glanced at the strong ones around him.

Unexpectedly, these strong ones showed expressions of embarrassment, as if unwilling to associate with him, but the tinge of admiration hidden in their eyes did not escape him.

Even Martin Houston and Harrison Houston, who were closely connected to him, revealed approving and relieved gazes.

Thus, he looked at young David Jones and changed his mind, asking, “What does Sir think?”

After all, having his granddaughter serve a Monarch Healer was a very disgraceful thing to do, but if it was to a figure capable of making a name for themselves and admired by thousands, it would be a completely different story.

If his granddaughter could learn just a fraction, or even three-tenths of David Jones’s alchemy skills, wouldn’t the Brown family be able to soar?

“Good fellow, you dare to renege on our agreement!” David Jones cursed silently, not wanting to have a spy lurking beside him.

So, he coughed lightly, graciously declined and said, “No need for a maidservant, I have already agreed on the payment for treating Miss with the General.”

Wen Yan, Iris Brown’s pretty face stiffened, and she looked up at her incompetent grandfather.

Truth be told, her willingness to devote herself was not because of David Jones’s appearance and strength, but his superb alchemy skills!
