Charlie could instantly see the look on the two people’s faces. So, he had a stern expression as he said, “I asked Miss Fox to prepare some medicinal ingredients for me, and I plan to refine some pills tonight. Rosalie is the strongest among the three of you, so she will be following me so that she can help me in time if there is any need.”For Charlie, refining higher-level pills was a great challenge.The higher the level of a pill, the greater the loss of Reiki during the refining process, and that meant the more dangerous the refining process was. If there was a deviation in the middle of the refining process, there might be a loss or even a serious backfire.Although Rosalie could not help with refining the pills, she was the strongest among them. With her around, she could at least help Charlie eliminate outside interference as much as possible and act as an extra layer of protection. The two men suddenly came to a realization and could not help but show regretful expressi
Other martial artists would not be able to wait for the opportunity to break through another hurdle in their cultivation level even after waiting for several years or even decades.However, Rosalie had broken through two meridians one after the other in just a few hours, leaping from a three-star martial artist to a five-star martial artist. This kind of speed was almost unheard of in the field of martial arts.Rosalie did not expect that Charlie would give her such a good opportunity. After all, she had been able to rise from a two-star martial artist to a three-star martial artist because of Charlie’s help. This was equivalent to Charlie pushing her directly from a two-star martial artist to a five-star martial artist with his own strength. Just as she was feeling surprised, delighted, and extremely moved because of Charlie, he closed the door directly, locked himself in the bedroom, and began to refine the Regenerating Pill.This kind of favor that Charlie had just done for R
It could be said that all the medicinal ingredients in front of Charlie had completed a certain degree of mutation at this moment, and the medicinal properties were also undergoing a transformation of evolution under the dual effects of the Phoenixica and Reiki.What surprised Charlie the most was when the Phoenixica was activated, its powerful medicinal properties wrapped in Reiki quickly formed an unimaginable operation pattern. It was like a gaseous planet that was constantly rotating and expanding, and it was also constantly collapsing toward the center under the influence of the Reiki simultaneously. As it rotated faster and faster, it was like a super powerful centrifugal pump that was frantically extracting Reiki from Charlie’s body.The output speed of the Reiki was originally still within Charlie’s control, but he soon discovered that the output speed of the Reiki was no longer under his control and soon had changed from actively being released to being extracted.After
What Charlie did not expect was that the white ball of light that was rotating rapidly would suddenly explode.At the moment when the ball of light exploded, the strong airflow in the room seemed to stop abruptly.Immediately afterward, a pile of golden pills with a diameter of about a centimeter rolled to the ground. What was even more incredible was that these pills that rolled out did not scatter but were all gathered in the center.Charlie heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that the pills had been successfully refined, and he quickly held these pills in his palm.After counting them carefully, he found that there were not too many or few pills, but there were exactly twenty pills.However, Charlie was not overly happy. After all, he had had to sacrifice three precious Cultivating Pills in order to refine this batch of Regenerating Pills.The Cultivating Pill could replenish Reiki after it was taken, but the Regenerating Pill did not have such an effect. If a healthy person w
A few minutes ago, Nanako had just finished her work and returned to her home in Tokyo by car.Since taking over the Ito family not long ago, Nanako had been working overtime during this period of time so that she could quickly adapt and rise to the role of the Ito family’s helmsman.Under normal circumstances, she would usually wait until after nine o’clock at night before returning home after getting off work.The reason why she had returned home at six o’clock today was mainly because it was her father, Yahiko’s fiftieth birthday.Thus, she had left work early to celebrate her father’s birthday.In the past, when Yahiko had celebrated his birthday, it was not just the Ito family’s extended family members who would come to celebrate his birthday, but even the heads of many prestigious families in Tokyo would come to congratulate him.However, ever since Yahiko’s legs had been amputated, he had been very resistant toward such crowded occasions. So, for his birthday dinner this y
“Qungua?” The young maid shook her head in bewilderment. “Miss... I... I don’t think I’ve heard of it before.”Nanako said with a smile, “The qungua is one of the Oskian women’s traditional dresses, and it’s usually in red and gold. There is also fine embroidery on it, and it looks very gorgeous and beautiful. There has also been a different improvement in the style over the recent years, and it is really beautiful and looks particularly festive when worn.”The maid said with a blank expression, “Miss, there’s no need for Japanese women like us to wear the Oskian wedding dress when we get married, right? Wouldn’t that be a little too strange?”Nanako shook her head mischievously and said shyly, “I’ll naturally wear a kimono if I marry a Japanese, but I will have to wear the Oskian wedding dress if I marry an Oskian to suit the occasion. Besides, as the saying goes, if you marry a man, you will have to follow and adapt to his customs and tradition.”“What?!” The maid was appalled an
He was well-known in Japan and even regarded as an inspirational idol by many people. He had singlehandedly built the Ito family into one of the top families in Japan, and he was also in his prime at the age of fifty. He should have been at the age where he could be exercising his ambitions to the fullest. However, at this time, he had suddenly lost his legs and become a disabled person who had to rely on someone to take care of him at home, and he had to use a wheelchair when he went out. It would be difficult to fill this gap in his heart for the next three to five years.So, she said to Hiroshi, “Tanaka-san, please invite the manufacturer of the billiard table to come here tomorrow to let them see if there is any way to upgrade the table so that it can be more suitable for my father’s current situation, such as making its height as adjustable as possible, and the legs supporting the table should be tucked inward as much as possible to avoid collision with the wheelchair. In any cas
Nanako pulled the door open gently and then left her slippers outside the door as she walked in barefoot.When Yahiko saw that Nanako was dressed up like a fairy, he could not help but say proudly, “Nanako, I can’t wait to see you when you get married. You will definitely be even more beautiful than you look now. I’m afraid that the whole of Japan will be stunned by you then!”Nanako smiled slightly and said, “My Eminent Father, I’ve never thought about getting married so soon.”“Oh...” Yahiko responded and said emotionally, “You still cannot forget Charlie?”Nanako did not hide her feelings and said earnestly, “My Eminent Father, I’m still unable to let Charlie-kun go. Aside from him, there is no place in my heart for anyone else. Even if I can forget him, it would be impossible for me to like anyone else.”Yahiko was stunned for a moment and then said with some distress, “Nanako, Charlie is a good man, but I don’t know how long you will have to wait for him. A woman’s golden per
