Chapter 240
Sebastian did not return to Phoenix Corporation. Instead, he headed to Misty Oak Villa. This location was the most spiritually enriched area in Ravenview City. Hence, it was an ideal place for cultivation.
At this moment, Sebastian aimed to break through to the Grandmaster Realm. He decided to concoct a batch of Nourishing Pills. These pills could rapidly enhance one's cultivation. A single pill was equivalent to ten days to over half a month of arduous training.
However, many rare herbs were required to create Nourishing Pills. There were two key ingredients in particular-dragon root and white herb. But ordinary dragon root and white herb wouldn't suffice.
They needed to be at least 50 years old for effective results. Ideally, a century-old specimen would yield even greater benefits.
Phoenix Corporation was the world's leading corporation. They had no problem acquiring dragon roots and white herbs that were over 50 years old. However, century-old ones were difficult to obtain. These were treasures that money couldn't buy.
A century-old dragon root and white herb possessed powerful effects. Practitioners who consumed them could enhance their cultivation base. Ordinary people could consume them to strengthen their bodies. The critically ill who consumed it could extend their lives.
Hence, owners of such treasures were reluctant to sell unless absolutely necessary. Even when they did, the herbs were quickly snatched up.
Another critical reason was the rarity of such items. On average, only one would appear every few decades. Hence, Sebastian planned to use the 50-year-old specimens for now while searching for century-old dragon roots and white herbs.
When Gina learned that Sebastian was looking for century-old dragon roots and white herbs, she said, "Supreme One, I know where you can find century-old white herbs."
"Where?" Sebastian asked urgently.
Gina explained, "The Bailey residence. Esme's father was gravely ill before, so the Baileys spent a fortune collecting rare herbs. The most precious of these was the century-old white herb. However, her father never used it. It should still be in their possession."
"Alright, contact her and see if she's willing to sell it to us. The price is negotiable," Sebastian instructed.
Gina nodded.
Although he knew where the century-old white herb could be found, he still needed the century-old dragon root to proceed with the concoction.
Therefore, Sebastian decided to first use the 50-year-old specimen to make a batch. Since he had made Nourishing Pills before, he was familiar with the process and successfully
created them without any issues.
Afterward, Sebastian went into seclusion as there were still two days left until the supreme banquet. He planned to use this time to utilize the Nourishing Pills and break through the Grandmaster Realm.
On the day before the supreme banquet, Sebastian successfully achieved the Grandmaster Realm. His power significantly increased. Joseph had stationed several people outside Sebastian's room to stand guard. He would immediately be informed once Sebastian came out.
In a pavilion, Sebastian sat at a stone table. He was drinking fine wine and watching the fish in the pond, feeling completely relaxed. His strength had not returned to its peak, but he believed that he could re-enter the Divine Realm within a year.
If Sebastian could find century-old dragon roots and white herbs, he could make a batch of high-quality Nourishing Pills. This time frame would then be halved.
Joseph hurried over and greeted respectfully, "Greetings, Supreme One."
"Is there something you need?" Sebastian asked as he noticed that Joseph's tone was urgent.
"Supreme One, Ms. Cadwell is here. She wishes to see you," Joseph replied.
"Jenny Cadwell?" Sebastian asked, somewhat uncertain.
"Yes."
"Send her away. I don't want to see her." Sebastian rejected it without hesitation. Although Jenny was beautiful, he disliked her character.
"Ms. Cadwell is here to bring you a gift. She insists that you'll be very pleased with it," Joseph added.
"Interesting... Let her in." Sebastian was intrigued. Since Jenny was confident in her gift to him, he was curious about what she could offer.
Not long after, Joseph brought Jenny over. They hadn't seen each other for a while, but Jenny was still as beautiful as ever. Her makeup was exquisite today.
She wore a snow-white strapless gown that revealed a large expanse of her fair skin. A blue sapphire necklace adorned her elegant neck, and her hair was styled in an updo. She exuded both nobility and coldness.
"Greetings, Supreme One." Jenny knelt before Sebastian. Her eyes were fixed on him, intently scrutinizing him.
At this moment, Sebastian wore a mask. So, Jenny didn't recognize that the man in front of her was her previously despised fiancé, Sebastian. She was surprised as rumors had it that Sebastian was old and ugly.
But the person before her had short and jet-black hair. His hands were somewhat rough but full of vitality. Although she couldn't see his face, he certainly didn't look like an old man.
"Get up," Sebastian said in a slightly hoarse voice.
"Thank you, Supreme One." Jenny expressed her gratitude before standing up.
"What's your purpose in seeking me?" Sebastian asked straightforwardly.
"Supreme One, I've long heard of your remarkable presence and unparalleled might. I've admired you for a long time and came today to pay my respects. I also prepared a gift for you. I believe you'll be very satisfied with it," Jenny said confidently.
"What gift would that be?" Sebastian asked curiously.
"This gift is for your eyes only. Please dismiss everyone else, Supreme One," Jenny requested.
With a gesture from Sebastian, Joseph promptly led everyone out.Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.
"Alright, there's no one else here now. Let's see what gift you've prepared for me," Sebastian said, crossing his legs. His eyes were filled with anticipation.
"The best gift is my body. I'm willing to offer my body to you, Supreme One. Please favor me, "Jenny said as she unzipped the back of her dress. The gown slowly slipped off, revealing an exquisite and beautiful sight.
Sebastian's eyes widened in shock. He never expected that Jenny's so-called gift would be her own body.
