Chapter 469

Nyx had yet to withdraw her Soul Form. The tendrils still coiled around a few leaves of the Violet Soul Grass. She could hear its delighted cries echoing through the array.

She thought, ‘It’s much cooler, but still not enough?

After pondering for a moment, she made a slight adjustment to the array. The air, previously chilly, now condensed into white mist, forming frost on the leaves.

Most plants would wither under such cold, but the withered and yellowed leaves of the Violet Soul Grass visibly began to turn green, regaining their vitality. Its once drooping stem gradually straightened.

Taking advantage of the moment, Nyx took out the Snow Dew Bottle and infused the Violet Soul Grass with spiritual energy. The grass swayed joyfully, its leaves unfurling and revealing a tiny bud.

“Look, it’s actually going to bloom?” The elders widened their eyes in astonishment, unwilling to blink and miss a single moment. They had never seen a Violet Soul Grass flower before and had assumed it couldn’t bloom. Seeing this, they were truly stunned.

It seemed that this rare character stemmed from its unique nature. Once the grass produced a bud, it could no longer adapt to its previous environment, making blooming an exceedingly rare event.

If it weren’t for Nyx, the Violet Soul Grass would have perished.

“Elder Cyan, you’ve taken on an incredible disciple.” The elders congratulated Elder Cyan with a look of admiration mixed with jealousy. “Where did you find such a promising disciple?”

The fact was undeniable, and they weren’t above swallowing their pride. It was fortunate that the Violet Soul Grass survived and this prodigious disciple belonged to the Celestial.

Even the Herbal Valley didn’t have disciples as talented as Nyx. She could communicate with spirit plants. It was an incredibly rare talent.

Overcome with curiosity, the crowd bombarded Nyx, eager to know if this ability was innate or the result of some special

circumstance.

“Back off. Why are you prying so much? Are you jealous because she has better talent than you?” Elder Magnus, as blunt as ever, didn’t mince words, but his protective stance toward Nyx was evident.

He extricated Nyx from the crowd and turned to an elder who had covertly tried to stash away the spirit plant. “Hand the Moonlit Beauty over. A bet is a bet.”

The elder’s face flushed red with embarrassment. After much hesitation, he reluctantly took the softly glowing Moonlit Beauty from his storage pouch and handed it to Nyx. “H–Here. Take it.”

Though reluctant, he couldn’t renege on his word. After all, it was his own promise. Besides, he had wrongfully accused her earlier and almost come to blows with her. Compensation was only fair. Still, parting with such a precious spirit plant pained him deeply.

The elder stared wistfully at his prized possession, hoping it might show some affection toward him.

He thought, ‘Spirit plants have emotions. What is the Moonlit Beauty thinking right now? If it felt any attachment to me, pay any price to reclaim it.

But the Moonlit Beauty showed no trace of longing for him. Instead, it simpered and fawned over Nyx, whom it had just met. In front of everyone, it placed a piece of leaf in Nyx’s palm and detached it willingly.

Nyx heard its joyous voice ring out. “This is for you.”
