Chapter 403
First Elder left in a daze. When he returned to the Grant family, he almost tripped over the threshold.
He staggered and fell a few steps forward before stabilizing himself.
Zelen was terrified and quickly went forward to support him.
Bettany happened toe out of the kitchen and saw First Elder looking like he had lost his vitality. He
had aged a few years.
His brows were tightly knitted, and the wrinkles on both sides of his nose were deep and surly. His
entire temperament was malicious and terrifying.
Bettany was so frightened that she took a step back. This was the first time she had seen First Elder
like this. In the past, although First Elder was strict and dignified, he did not have such a deep hostility.
He was like a man–eating demon. When the servants in the living room saw First Elder, they lowered
their heads and retreated. No one dared to approach.
Zelen helped First Elder to sit on the sofa and asked in a low voice, “First Elder, what should we do? Is
there really no way to save Zelen?”
“Do you only see Tom? The Grant family is facing an even bigger crisis now,” First Elder said coldly.
“Hurry up and invite the other elders over. The Grant family has to call for the circle of Elders!”
Although Zelen could not figure it out for a moment, he knew the seriousness of the matter when he
saw First Elder’s serious expression. He quickly went to find. the other elders.
Alexander also rushed back immediately.
The group of people sitting in the conference room were a little stunned. There had not been any major
events in the Grant family recently. Why did they suddenly call for the circle of Elders?
Sixth Elder looked at First Elder in confusion. “Jarron, what happened? I still have things to deal with
outside.”
Second Elder was more mature and guessed, “Is it about Tom? Could it be that. Olivia is unwilling to
save him?”
Upon hearing the words ‘Olivia, Alexander’s pupils constricted and he subconsciously clenched his
fists.
“It can’t be.” Sixth Elder was surprised. “That Olivia can’t be so arrogant. She was not even willing to
save Tom even with the Grant family requesting for her help?” First Elder’s expression darkened. He
raised his hand to signal everyone to be quiet. “I called everyone back this time for one thing. Zelen
didn’t have a strange illness. He took the Great Nourishment Pill.”
“Great Nourishment Pill?” Fifth Elder was surprised. Then, he denied it.
“Impossible. All Great Nourishment Pill of the Grant family is in my hands. Great Nourishment Pill is
limited. It can’t be lost.”

First Elder did not refute Fifth Elder’s words. Instead, he looked at Zelen and gestured, “Hand over the
Great Nourishment Pill.”
Zelen nodded and took out a wooden box.
There were dozens of Great Nourishment Pill of them.
These pills were picked up from the ground by Zelen from the Taylor family. At that time, Olivia threw a
large handful over. Zelen was quick–witted and picked up
a lot.
Seeing so many Great Nourishment Pill, Fifth Elder was first shocked. Then, he got up and picked one
up. He brought it to his nose and sniffed it. Then, he bit down with his teeth and tasted it.
“Is this the Great Nourishment Pill?” Fifth Elder was shocked. “Jarron, where did you get so much
Great Nourishment Pill, the Grant family?”
Zelen said, “I got it from Olivia. Olivia cracked the Great Nourishment Pill’s
of prescription and made a lot of Great Nourishment Pill. These are just the tip the iceberg. She has the
prescription in her hands. She can make as many as she
wants.
“Impossible!” Fifth Elder’s eyes widened in disbelief. “The core of the Great Nourishment Pill is the
voodoo worm eggs. These eggs are tough to cultivate. Even our Grant family only has a dozen of them
after decades.”
Fifth Elder did not believe that Olivia could nurture so many eggs in such a short period of time.
Sixth Elder also stepped forward and held a Great Nourishment Pill egg. He looked around and said,
“Fifth Brother is right. If this egg were so easy to obtain, the Grant family wouldn’t have reduced our
subjects for thousands of years, leaving only the core families, the Manson family, the Holmes family,
and the Watson family. If there were enough eggs, it wouldn’t be a problem to control hundreds of
families.”
“Jarron, could Olivia be lying to you?” Second elder did not believe it either. “Olivia is only in her
twenties this year. No matter how powerful she is, there’s a limit. The Grant family has been passed
down for more than a thousand years. I don’t know how many talented people can’t crack it. How can
she?”
Hearing everyone’s words, First Elder’s heart wavered. He pushed the box to Fifth Elder. “Fifth Brother,
take a closer look. Is it really the Great Nourishment Pill?” Fifth Elder nodded and casually crushed a
Great Nourishment Pill egg, revealing the white egg inside.
Then, he lit the Grant family’s secret scented candle that could awaken voodoo
worms.
After scented candle lit up, wisps of smoke were sucked in by the voodoo worm
egg. After a while, a small white worm wriggled.
Seeing this, Fifth Elder was shocked.
It was really a voodoo worm!
He could not believe it. He grabbed more than ten Great Nourishment Pill pills and crushed them all.
Then, small bugs were awakened and squirmed on the conference table.
Fifth Elder was stunned!
The Grant family spent a lot of effort and only managed to nurture two to three voodoo worm eggs in a
year, but Olivia actually produced dozens of them.
“How did she do it? This is impossible. Impossible.” Fifth Elder felt that his outlook on life had been
overturned.
Their bloodline had been guarding the Great Nourishment Pill’s secret recipe for more than a thousand
years. Generation after generation, only the lineal branch knew the method to nurture voodoo worms in
each generation.
In the end, it was broken by Olivia just like that.
At this moment, Fifth Elder felt that there was no meaning in his life.
Fifth Elder was only thinking about the voodoo worm for a moment, but the other elders realized the
danger.
Great Nourishment Pill was the foundation of the Grant family. Because of Great Nourishment Pill, they
could control those subservient families for thousands of years. Once Great Nourishment Pill’s secret
recipe was leaked, their foundation would copse.
Those subjects might counterattack and deal with them instead.
The most urgent thing now was to resolve the matter of the Great Nourishment Pill. He could not let the
secret recipe leak out.
First Elder’s tone was cold. “Olivia, you can’t stay!”
The Second Elder’s eyelids twitched as he looked over. “What does Jarron mean?” First Elder’s tone
was cold. “Ban! Pass down the order. All the Grant family, the Manson family, the Holmes family, the
Watson family, and the Smithson family subservient families cut off all cooperation with the Smith family
and the Sullivan family. Encircle and annihte both families.”
Speaking of this, the resentment in First Elder’s eyes was like crazed magma that violently spewed out.
“I want Olivia to take the initiative to destroy the secret. recipe Great Nourishment Pill and kneel in front
of me to beg me to let the Smith and Sullivan families off!”
Everyone was stunned by First Elder’s strict tone.
A ban order! A ban order!
The Grant family had not issued a ban for more than a hundred years.
11:27
Modern society was different from ancient times and focused more on human rights. Furthermore, the
Grant family had been in politics for many years. He had to focus on political influence and reputation
among the people.
He wouldn’t kill people easily.
Now that First Elder had issued a ban, he was really angry.
Alexander’s eyes were deep as he remained silent.
First Elder looked at him and said in a low voice, “Mr. Alexander, Great Nourishment Pill is rted to
the Grant family’s survival. You can’t be careless. You can’t be soft–hearted.”
Alexander dispersed the beautiful and cold face in his mind and nodded heavily. “I will gather the Grant
family nsmen and a few ministers to issue a ban!”
