Mr. Chardon nodded, sighed, and said, “I’m already a hundred and fifty-six years old this year.”“A hundred and fifty-six years old?” Samadius said with a longing look on his face, “You don’t even look like you’re fifty-six years old…”Mr. Chardon said calmly, “These are the gains after mastering Reiki. I have lived for three centuries; the nineteenth, twentieth, and the twenty-first. I will no longer have any regrets in this life if I can live to the twenty-second century.”Samadius was startled. He knelt down to the ground again and groveled before Mr. Chardon as he pleaded, “Master Coldie, please teach me the method to longevity! If you agree, I’m willing to follow you for the rest of this life and be at your disposal! I’ll abide by all your requests without any hesitation at all!”It had been more than seventy years since Samadius had entered the Taoist Sect, and at this moment, he was in the same state Mr. Chardon was when he first left Cohmer Temple. He had been practicing
When Mr. Chardon heard Samadius’s eager expression of sincerity, he nodded and smiled with satisfaction. Everything was developing according to the direction he had planned.As far as Mr. Chardon was concerned, he had never been a good person. Aside from working hard without complaint in front of the British Lord, he had never even reached the most basic courtesy of ‘keeping his word’ when it came to others. In fact, he thought about using Cohmer Temple’s connections and resources to find Vera’s whereabouts when he first arrived in Eastcliff, but after careful consideration, he felt that it would not be worth it to expose his true identity just to take advantage of Cohmer Temple. Not to mention whether Cohmer Temple would be able to help him find clues about Vera, but if news about a Taoist priest who was born in the 19th century and had practiced Taoism in Cohmer Temple for decades was still alive, it would inevitably bring him unnecessary trouble once word about this matter spre
After saying that, Samadius asked again, “Master Coldie, do you have any general clues about this girl? For example, where she might be?”Mr. Chardon shook his head and said, “I don’t know where she is, but I personally speculate that she is most likely in Oskia. Therefore, it would be best if you could gather a group of your disciples and let them travel all over the country to search for her!”Samadius nodded and said, “No problem, I’ll make all the arrangements now!”Mr. Chardon nodded slightly and said, “Okay, I’ll leave this matter to you, then. Remember to inform me as soon as possible as soon as you discover any clues.”“Yes, Master Coldie!” Samadius quickly agreed. He then asked Mr. Chardon, “By the way, Master Coldie, the people waiting outside are all my juniors. If you can teach me the method for longevity in the future, can you share the method with them as well? They are all loyal disciples of Cohmer Temple, and they have devoted themselves to Cohmer Temple for so many
Mr. Chardon glanced at Samadius, who stepped forward immediately and said in an unquestionable tone, “Ferris, Mr. Chardon has something important to do, so no one is allowed to interfere or delay him! Mr. Chardon already told me what you want to know about, and I will convey everything to you word for word later!”After saying that, he warned, “But let me say something in advance. If anyone delays Mr. Chardon’s important matter, that person will not have a chance to pry into the method to longevity!”Everyone had grave expressions on their faces, and no one dared to ask any more questions. Ferris, who was called by name, was flustered as well and said, “Have a safe trip, Mr. Chardon!”Everyone reacted immediately and said in unison, “Goodbye, Mr. Chardon!”Mr. Chardon stroked his long beard and walked away gracefully. Just as everyone was about to come out to see him off, Mr. Chardon said without looking back, “Everyone, just stay put. There is no need to see me off.”After Mr.
That night, Mr. Chardon sat on the ground of his temporary residence with his legs crossed. He seemed to be meditating with his eyes closed, but he was, in fact, calculating when he would be leaving for Aurous Hill.He suddenly received a notification on his cell phone, and it turned out to be the British Lord who wanted to speak to him.He unlocked his cell phone immediately, entered the special software, and connected with the British Lord. The British Lord’s cold voice sounded over the phone, “Mr. Chardon, I asked you to go to Aurous Hill to find out the whereabouts of Curtis Wade’s son. Why haven’t you gone yet?”Mr. Chardon quickly explained, “British Lord, I had some ideas, and I would like to report them to you!”The British Lord said coldly, “Speak up!”Mr. Chardon said respectfully, “British Lord, I’ve always had a feeling that Vera might be in Eastcliff, so I have been looking for clues about her in Eastcliff over the past two days. As for Aurous Hill, as you mentioned
Meanwhile, it was already nighttime in Aurous Hill.Elaine had already prepared dinner and had invited Charlie and Claire to the dining table. At the same time, she could not help but complain, “It’s already eight o’clock, so why isn’t that b*stard, Jacob, home yet? I wonder where he has gone to now!”Charlie said casually, “Mom, Dad is the vice president of the Calligraphy and Painting Association now, so he must be busy. Please be considerate.”Elaine said disdainfully, “Why should I be considerate of him? Don’t you think I know anything about his ability? I think the people in charge of the Calligraphy and Painting Association must be blind to let him be the vice president!”Just as she was talking, Jacob opened the door and walked in.Claire greeted him quickly and said, “Dad, wash your hands then come and have dinner!”Jacob asked casually, “What kind of dishes are there? Is there any meat?”Elaine cursed and said, “There is a lid, do you want to chew it? If you’re willing,
“What do you know?!” Jacob looked at her with disdain, then said to Charlie, “By the way, Charlie, the Calligraphy and Painting Association will be holding an ancient calligraphy and painting exhibition in Aurous Hill soon. The standards of this calligraphy and painting exhibition are very high. The city is very supportive of this as well, so it should be a big move for our country! We might even invite the Central Oskia Media to cover the entire event!”Charlie asked curiously, “It will be such a big event? Aurous Hill is not considered to be the base for calligraphy and painting, so wouldn’t it be too forceful to hold such a big event here?”Jacob said, “It doesn’t matter if Aurous Hill is not the base for calligraphy and painting. It will be fine as long as Aurous Hill can exhibit outstanding calligraphy and painting works, so we are collecting works of famous artists from collectors throughout Aurous Hill now. Our first step is to raise funds internally. Our president and the oth
Meanwhile, at Aurous University.The freshmen at Aurous University had completed their registration process, class placement, and assignment of counselors. The university issued orientation uniforms to all students in the afternoon, and the two-week orientation would officially begin in the morning tomorrow.Due to the paramilitary management after orientation started, both Vera and Claudia chose to live on campus. Otherwise, they would have to get up and gather at around six o’clock in the morning every day, or they would not be able to get to the university in time. The two of them were chatting in the dormitory while tidying up their beds and personal belongings. Since her family was killed, Claudia had become very cautious toward others and did not like to communicate with others. When she was in Canada, the only two people she trusted were Mrs. Lewis and Stephanie. However, Claudia, who was usually taciturn, somehow had a lot of common topics with Vera. No matter what they
