Jojo looked at the empty office and murmured softly, "Ten years ago, the Jennings family abandoned him. He was extremely talented and outstanding. This Jennings family is really interesting.""Jojo, you're here!"Suddenly, a pair of hands embraced Jojo from behind, and the owner of those hands was Stanley."Marry me, okay? I may not give you the wedding you want, but I can give you the Bellenuite Group!"Jojo smiled sweetly, turned around, and held Stanley's face, saying, "Okay, I promise you, but..."After Stanley listened to Jojo's request, he hesitated but still said, "Okay, whatever you want, I'll buy it for you no matter how much it costs!"Jojo smiled, but her thoughts were, 'Wait a little longer! When you're no longer useful, I'll drain you dry!'At the same time, in another elegant office.Marilyn was very annoyed. The result of her previous meeting with Chad as Dark Phoenix had made her furious!She was talking to the head of the Zenith Organization on the phone. "I k
Chad found it even more unbelievable since Toby claimed to have given him that set of medicinal herbs. Chad asked, "How did you get the entire set of ingredients for the chimera pill?"Toby grinned and looked at his legs, and it was only then that Chad noticed he was still sitting in a wheelchair. Chad suddenly remembered that he had forgotten to heal him the last time he left Orcreek.However, Toby had injured his muscles and bones, and forcibly setting the bones might not restore them to their original condition.So Chad said, "Let me see the herbs first."Being an old fox, Toby immediately realized that Chad had a way to restore him completely. He had someone bring over a secure case, and when it was opened, the herbs inside still surprised Chad.The chimera pill was something that could enhance a practitioner's talent, allowing those new to the Mystic realm to gain better abilities. Each ingredient required for the chimera pill was a rare and valuable herb that could enhance a
Chad initially wanted to suggest that Toby find a suitable time to take the rebirth elixir. After all, consuming it would lead to excruciating pain, akin to being reborn, although the results would be equally transformative."You'd better stay here for now," Chad said as he watched Toby swallow the elixir in one gulp.Toby was puzzled, so Chad explained the effects of the rebirth elixir. Hearing about its effects, Toby was overjoyed. "Being able to take such a pill in this lifetime is my fortune. I don't fear the pain!"However, as soon as he finished speaking, the veins all over Toby's body suddenly bulged, and he convulsed into a ball. The pain was so intense that Toby could not even scream; it took a long time before he could let out a low roar like a beast.However, it was clear that his body was undergoing a tremendous transformation.As Chad watched Toby, he suddenly noticed something wrong. A faint black mist, almost invisible to the naked eye, surrounded Toby's entire body
"Frey, how many years have you been with me?" Toby asked.The bodyguard smiled respectfully. "Five years."Toby continued asking, "How have I treated you in these five years?"The bodyguard seemed flustered. "Very well, Mr. Enfield. Please tell me if I did something wrong, and I'll change."Then Toby fell silent, and Chad was the one who spoke next."Forget about the five years. He's only been with you since the car accident."Sure enough, the bodyguard's expression changed dramatically. However, he did not flee. Instead, he seemed to relax as if a burden had been lifted."So, you found out about me. Dr. Jennings, you're really sharp!"Toby was shocked, staring at the bodyguard, unable to say a word. He was desperate to know who that imposter was."Who are you? What happened to the real Frey?" Toby demanded.The bodyguard smirked. "The poor guy was unlucky. In the moment of the crash, he shielded you and saved your life. But he died."Toby was horrified. "That's impossible.
Chad and Toby were moved by Sutton's story. In Hacniane, Mystic and martial arts were divided into reputable and heretical groups.Among the heretical Mystic groups were the Black Coffin Group, Achaea, the Gray Elders and the Clearwater Group, the Mediums Group, Wild Mortzen, Danbanmon, and others.Sutton said, "I refused to inherit Achaea and made a three-year pact with my family's elders. Three years later, I wanted to compete again. If I weren't the last, I wouldn't have to inherit Achaea. But I was too naive!"Sutton gave a bitter smile that was tinged with madness. "Three years later, the competition began, and I was still at the bottom. This time, I accepted it. Not because my talent was insufficient, but because they cheated!"They took advantage of my parents' meek nature, and they didn't want to be childless. So, I had to be the last. I had to inherit Achaea!"With a crazed laugh, Sutton said, "So, I agreed. I inherited Achaea, but the misfortune had only just begun."Th
Chad observed Sutton using the divination skills he had inherited from Seis. He discovered that Sutton indeed had the appearance of one with a short life.Changing one's fate was no easy task. According to the teachings in Divination of Cloth, a person's fate was fixed. To alter one's destiny, one had to seize another's fate, which could result in severe injury, disability, or even death.Thus, even though the chimera pill was nicknamed the Fate-Altering Pill, it could not genuinely change one's fate.Chad said, "The chimera pill can only enhance cultivation talent, not alter fate."Sutton scoffed, "Dr. Jennings, just focus on making the chimera pill. Leave the rest to me."Chad smiled. "I'll make the chimera pill, but there's another way to help you change your fate."Sutton was intrigued and asked, "What method?"Chad replied calmly, "You can break through and ascend to become an earthbound immortal."Sutton lost interest and replied with a touch of sarcasm, "It's not that ea
Sutton's confident declaration left Chad visibly surprised. "Chimera pill? Break through to the Visualization Stage?"Chad was speechless. He had hoped to avoid refining the pill but realized Sutton was only at the Inner Observation Stage. If Chad had not wanted to test the effects of Evergrow, he would have already kicked Sutton out.On second thought, Chad understood—if Sutton were at the Visualization Stage, he would not have botched his strategy on Toby.On the other hand, Sutton believed Chad was shocked that his cultivation level was only at the Inner Observation Stage. Sutton planned to use the chimera pill to break through to the Visualization Stage and then attempt to ascend to an earthbound immortal to change his fate.It was definitely better since Chad could increase the success rate of becoming an earthbound immortal to ninety percent.Sutton smiled and said, "Dr. Jennings, we think alike. I painstakingly gathered the ingredients for the chimera pill to elevate myself
Mystic cultivation was divided into righteous and evil paths, but the cultivation methods were the same. There were only three ways—technique, body, and life.Sutton was clearly practicing technique. Due to his Five Afflictions and Three Lacks, he could not practice life or body cultivation, so his physical frailty was inevitable.Having left Hacniane for over a decade, it was difficult for him even to be considered mid-tier in Mystic at the Inner Observation Stage, let alone higher.Chad turned to Jasmine and said, "Jasmine, stop fooling around and heal him."Since getting to know Chad, Jasmine had become much more lively and open. She even dared to joke with him. She also acted against Sutton because she could not stand his arrogant demeanor."Alright," she replied.With a few quick movements, Jasmine set Sutton's arm back in place as if she were assembling a jigsaw puzzle. Chad watched her technique and could not help but marvel at how quickly Jasmine had mastered bone setting
