Chapter 460 Celia's Background
This was the first time Celia had heard about this.

If Ross hadn't mentioned it, she wouldn't have asked what the flower was because she was used to its presence; she would have simply assumed it was Vanessa's collection.

Now, hearing that the flower was related to her, Celia hurriedly asked, "What is that flower? Was it left by my parents? Or...?"

Vanessa shook her head: "I don't know either. I've investigated for a long time what happened before I found you, but I haven't found anything. Who your parents are... I'm sorry, Celia, I have no clue either."

"Ok."

Celia said disappointedly.

But then I thought about it again. Her parents abandoned her when she was born, and Vanessa raised her. So there was no need to specifically look for her.

Whether we find it or not, it's all up to fate.

"Is there anything special about that flower?" Celia asked.

“Yes,” Vanessa said. “Those are the flowers of the Star Spirit Tree. Legend has it that when the Star Spirit Tree blooms, a child of the gods will be born. However, the Star Spirit Tree is too tall, and there is no fixed time when it will bloom. The flowers are not easy to obtain unless they are picked when they are in bloom. Otherwise, the flowers will wither in the air after they fall.”

As she spoke, she smiled and said, "Perhaps Celia was born when the Celestial Tree was in bloom, and the Celestial Tree bloomed a flower for your birth."

Celia tilted her head and thought about it, then agreed with Vanessa's assessment.

Who told her to summon an evil god that others couldn't summon even after trying their best? And it just appeared with a casual summoning.

Celia asked Ross in her mind, "Lord Ross, is Mother Vanessa right?"

"Pretty much. Every time a flower of the Star Spirit Tree blooms, it means that a newborn is born who has received the blessing of the Star Spirit Tree. The newborn is not limited to humans; elves, orcs, and even magical beasts can all receive the blessing of the Star Spirit Tree." Ross nodded, confirming Vanessa's words.

"So, I'm the 'lucky one,' which is why I'm protected by the Star Spirit Tree flower?"

“Not necessarily.” Ross smiled slightly: “The Star Spirit Tree flower and the ‘lucky one’ are separate. As long as you can fly up and pick the Star Spirit Tree flower, you can pick it. It won’t seek out those who receive the blessing, nor does it have anything to do with those who receive the blessing.”

"Otherwise, those who receive the blessing will only have two fates: be killed or be strictly controlled. Given the nature of the gods, they will most likely kill all the lucky ones."

"Why?" Celia asked, puzzled.

"Because in history, many lucky people were the offspring of gods and humans. They were extremely talented and could easily surpass the limits of humanity. Some of them could even defeat gods at the Saint level, and the most powerful one even overthrew the God King."

"Therefore, if the flowers of the Star Spirit Tree were to be born alongside the lucky ones, they would inevitably be killed by passing gods or saints. This certain death contradicts the blessing of the Star Spirit Tree,"

Ross laughed and said, "The Protoss Flower is born after the blessing, but the Protoss Flower is not something that the lucky one owns."

Celia nodded, seemingly understanding, "So what's wrong with me?"

"Don't worry, you don't have the blessing of the Star Spirit Tree."

"……All right."

Bai was happy.

Ross added, "You're more special than the lucky ones."

Celia's eyes lit up.

I'm happy again.

She waited for Ross to continue, but Ross said nothing.

Unable to contain her desire any longer, after holding back for a long time, Celia finally asked with a hint of resentment, "Lord Ross, what's so special about me?"

“You summoned me.” Ross chuckled. “That’s much more special than the Lucky One.”

Celia: "..." (▼皿▼#) So you were just kidding me?!
While talking to Ross, Celia was also talking to Vanessa.

Vanessa led Celia to the backyard and looked at the golden flower. "Celia, I can feel that you've become stronger. Maybe in two years, you'll surpass your mother Vanessa. Your mother Vanessa is happy for you. If you want to find out about your origins, I won't object. However, I'm afraid your mother Vanessa can't offer you any help."

She shook her head. "I'm just a priest in a small town, I can't help you much. I heard you won the Sorcerer League championship, and maybe you could seek help from the Archbishop, the Holy Lord, and so on."

Celia said, "It just suddenly occurred to me... Even if we do find them, I won't go with them. In my heart, Vanessa is my mother."

Vanessa smiled, walked over, carefully took the Celestial Flower, and handed it to Celia.

"Take it. This thing was originally yours. It's no use keeping it in the temple."

Celia took the Celestial Flower, and the golden flower emitted a faint glow upon touching her.

A warm feeling emanated from the Star Spirit Flower.

Ross chuckled and said, "The Star Spirit Flower is a high-grade spiritual item, just like the Golden Apple. Carrying it with you will be beneficial. This Star Spirit Flower might have some connection to you, but it's not the right time yet. Keep it here and put it in the temple for now. You can come back for it after you turn eighteen."

Celia was taken aback, then returned the flowers.

“Mother Vanessa, I feel that this flower will be useful after I turn eighteen. Let’s leave it in the temple for now.”

Vanessa said, "Leaving it in the temple is fine, but I'm worried someone might steal it."

Ross said calmly, "It's not that easy to steal. This flower already bears your mark, and besides, with the current level of sorcerers, the Protoss Tree flower only has a symbolic meaning and no practical use."

The flowers of the Star Spirit Tree have the potential to condense god-level authority, but that is only a 'potential,' not something that can be condensed simply by obtaining it. Otherwise, god-level beings would be everywhere in the world, and saint-level beings would be less valuable than dogs.

Celia listened to Ross and insisted on giving it to Vanessa.

Vanessa had no choice but to accept it.

Just then, Pigs ran over and called to the two of them that lunch was ready.

The two stopped arguing, put the Star Spirit Flower back, and returned to the temple for a meal.

It's noon now, and the afternoon is 'free clinic' time. Vanessa will go to a special room to provide free treatment to residents and practitioners who have come from far and wide.

Seeing this, Celia volunteered to help.

Vanessa did not refuse.

When Celia helped with the treatment last year, she left a deep impression on the townspeople, and they won't forget her easily.

Although Celia had only been there for a day before the temple was demolished, she still remembered it.

As Celia resumed her healing, her exquisite purification and healing magic, along with the life magic from the puppet, spread among the townspeople through word of mouth.

The next day, a long line formed at Celia's side, mostly with patients suffering from hidden ailments that Vanessa couldn't cure.

Even viral diseases can be forcibly cured by Celia through her life magic.

There's no way to regrow missing limbs right now.

After three days of treatment, the entire Star Ash Town knew of Celia's healing abilities and she was dubbed the 'Divine Healer'.

It wasn't until two weeks later.

Celia prepared to leave.
