Gideon’s presence filled him with delight, recognizing the magnitude of the person before him.

With a warm smile, Gideon extended his hand to help Renard rise. “Although you are not my direct student, you were nurtured by my younger colleague and regarded him as your esteemed mentor. In my eyes, you are no different from my personal disciple.”

Gideon countered, “Am I not already back?”

“Yes…” Renard nodded eagerly and asked again, “By the way, Master, you…”

“What have you experienced during these years? I wonder if you can share your captivating stories with me!” Gideon interrupted, a playful gleam in his eyes.

Gideon chuckled and remarked, “Can seventy years of life experiences be summarized in just a few words?”

Seeing Renard’s disappointed expression, he decided to elaborate further. “But don’t be disheartened, my friend. The truth is, I have indeed discovered the secret to everlasting life.”
