God-Tier Providence System-Chapter 59

"In this way, from this day forward, the Hale family will inevitably become the most powerful and prosperous Saint lineage on the Azure Origin Continent!"

"Yes!" The crowd roared in unison, their voices echoing into the clouds.

Alex nodded with a satisfied smile. But inwardly, he was practically blooming with joy.

To tell the truth, this situation had completely exceeded his own expectations.

Last night, Alex had invested 1,000 Providence Points into Elara. His sole intention was simply to help her defeat those two sycophantic lackeys of Isolde.

He just wanted to help this pitiful little girl vent her anger and win some face.

But who could have imagined that Elara’s innate aptitude would reach such a terrifying degree?

A 50% cultivation speed bonus. A 50% comprehension enhancement. Coupled with a perfectly ordinary Profound-tier cultivation method.

It had actually allowed a little maid at the second level of the Body Tempering Realm to break through three major realms in a mere ten hours, stepping straight into the Core Formation Realm.

She had basically achieved a height that ninety percent of cultivators in the current era couldn’t reach in their entire lifetimes.

The Alex from the original novel was truly too blind. Too utterly foolish.

He clearly had a top-tier peerless genius right by his side.

She had the talent, the absolute loyalty, the grounded, hardworking demeanor. As a junior, she practically had zero flaws.

Moreover, Elara wandered back and forth in front of Alex’s eyes every single day, serving tea and pouring water. Yet the original Alex was completely blind. Never even spared her a single glance.

He just had to obsess over that wretched Isolde, didn’t he? Was it really that interesting? He let such a brilliant, flawless pearl be buried in vain for an entire lifetime.

It resulted in Elara only being at the measly Qi Gathering Realm when she ultimately died trying to save him.

Alex once again solidified a single thought. The Hale family in the original novel absolutely deserved to be exterminated.

They didn’t suffer unjustly at all.

"Come, Elara." Alex smiled faintly, raising the peach-red short sword.

"This Peach Cloud Soul-Slaying Blade is a reward I specially and meticulously selected for you."

"The Drifting Cloud Body Shield Art you cultivate possesses formidable defensive strength, but its offensive power is slightly lacking."

"This Peach Cloud Soul-Slaying Blade perfectly compensates for this major flaw."

"From this day forward, you must act as a leading figure among the younger generation of the Hale family."

"Lead the disciples to rapidly grow stronger, and become the backbone of the family as soon as possible!"

"Yes!" Elara nodded heavily, respectfully accepting the dagger with both hands. She knelt on one knee and shouted in a resonant voice.

"Thank you, Saint Lord, for the grace of bestowing this blade!"

"In this life and this world, Elara is willing to brave boiling water and tread through fire to repay the Saint Lord’s kindness!"

"Heh, rise." Alex waved his hand, chuckling as he helped Elara to her feet.

"Besides this blade, you may also make any one request as you please."

"Speak. As long as I can accomplish it, I will definitely satisfy your wish!"

The crowd revealed looks of deep envy.

Especially Julian. Wearing a sour, miserable expression. Looking as if he were harboring some deep, bitter resentment.

If it wasn’t for the fact that it would be entirely too humiliating, he wanted to run up and kneel right in front of Elara.

Beg Sister Elara to show mercy, yield this wish to him, and let him welcome Isolde back to the family.

Elara remained silent for a moment, then smiled faintly and shook her head.

"Thank you, Saint Lord."

"However, the Saint Lord has already helped Elara shed her mortal body, granting me a second life."

"Elara has already obtained everything she desires."

"For this wish, I only pray that the Saint Lord enjoys boundless fortune and longevity equal to heaven."

"And that you lead the Hale family step by step toward prosperity, until we become the number one Saint lineage on the Azure Origin Continent!"

The entire venue first fell into brief silence.

Then, a thunderous wave of cheering and applause erupted.

"Good!"

"Well said!"

A deep sense of admiration swelled in the hearts of every disciple present.

What does it mean to know how to act? What does it mean to understand worldly wisdom and social grace?

This was fucking textbook-level social grace.

No wonder Elara was able to gain the Saint Lord’s high regard, remaining by his side as his personal maid all this time. Her words today were the absolute best explanation.

If it were any of them who received this precious wish, they definitely would have blurted out all the rewards they thirsted for spirit stones, medicinal pills, spiritual treasures. The Saint Lord would certainly satisfy them, but that would be the end of it.

But look at Elara.

On the surface, she received absolutely nothing. But from this day forward, could the Saint Lord possibly not value her even more? Could he not groom her as a direct successor?

Elara didn’t just win this inspection assembly.

She had won the Saint Lord’s cultivation and favor for the next several years. Perhaps even decades.

She won big. She had absolutely won completely and utterly.

The crowd was entirely convinced, only Julian was so angry he was baring his teeth.

What a waste! A reckless waste of heavenly opportunity! To let such a perfect opportunity go to waste for nothing!

Little Isolde, I’m sorry. It’s all because of my incompetence.

I failed to seize this opportunity, causing you to continue suffering. You must hold on at the Divine Blade Sect for a little while longer.

In the future, I will definitely find an opportunity to bring you back.

Amidst the crowd’s applause, Elara carried her Peach Cloud Soul-Slaying Blade and stepped back to stand behind Alex.

Alex continued to distribute rewards to the other disciples.

For the batch who had achieved relatively high breakthroughs and reached the Foundation Establishment Realm, like Julian, Lucas, and Joanna, Alex distributed a High-Grade Earth-tier weapon to each of them based on their respective cultivation methods.
