The Amazing Son in Law The Charismatic Charlie Wade

When Gideon and Renard emerged from the secret room, the anticipation among the other elders was palpable. They had been eagerly awaiting this moment, not just Renard alone. Their dedication to the pursuit of longevity had kept them bound to this place with unwavering commitment and now Gideon represented their best chance.

As Gideon stepped out, a swarm of people rushed forward, bowing respectfully before him. They were aware of the thoughts running through their minds and Gideon, perceiving their expectations, addressed them calmly. “My esteemed disciples and nephews, I have already shared the path to longevity with Renard, who will elaborate on it in detail later. I must attend to some matters now and take my leave.”

Disappointment washed over everyone upon hearing Gideon’s departure. One of them, filled with respect, spoke up. “Master Alastair, you have been absent from Evercloud Temple for so many years. It feels hasty for you to leave soon after your return.”

Gideon cast a glance at Renard, who stepped forward immediately, his tone firm and resolute. “Master has urgent matters to attend to. We mustn’t interfere or cause any delay. Master has already entrusted me with the answers to your inquiries and I shall relay them verbatim. However, let me be clear. Should Master Alastair’s important affairs be delayed, he will never grant you the opportunity to glimpse the path to longevity.”

Fear filled the expressions with those present and no one dared to ask any further questions. Even Lucas Flynn, who had been addressed, panicked and said respectfully, “I bid farewell to Master Gideon!”

The crowd echoed in unison, “Farewell, Master Gideon!”

With a graceful stroke of his long beard, Gideon walked away without looking back. As everyone prepared to see him off, his voice reached their ears. “Masters and nephews, remain here. There’s no

need to bid me farewell.”

Unlike Gideon, Renard had grown up within the confines of Evercloud Temple and now he resided within its prison walls. He held a deep affection for the Temple and didn’t wish to enjoy the feast of knowledge alone.

After sharing the tale, the younger disciples sensed the gravity of the opportunity that lay before them. They were overwhelmed with excitement and hung onto Maria’s photograph, attempting to etch her image into their minds.

Renard issued another command, “Junior brothers, tonight you must select someone absolutely trustworthy among your disciples. Compile a list for me. Tomorrow, I shall summon the individuals on your lists and present them with the photographs. They shall all be dispatched!”

The group readily agreed, speaking in unison “Rest assured, Master!”

Renard continued, “Furthermore, esteemed seniors and junior fellows, I wish to share some heartfelt words with you. Upon my encounter with Master Gideon earlier today, it was clearly evident that Master Gideon possesses impressive vitality and strength. His powerful demeanor and energy were undeniable, leaving a lasting impression on those present. His appearance belies his true age, which is nearly one hundred and sixty two years. Judging by his current condition, living another forty years is not an unreasonable expectation. Therefore, it is conservatively estimated that Master Alastair may live up to two hundred years!”

Renard’s words stirred the innermost desires and hopes for longevity within each individual, raising their aspirations to new heights.

Lucas couldn’t help but ask, “Senior Brother, in your opinion, what is the maximum life expectancy of Master Gideon? Records mention immortal Masters who harnessed reiki hundreds of thousands of years ago. They often lived for two or three hundred years and some even surpassed five hundred

years. While I cannot confirm the veracity of these accounts, considering Master Alasairs’s current state, we can certainly guarantee a lifespan of at least two hundred years. If his cultivation continues to improve over the next two hundred years, he might live even longer!”

With a serious expression, Renard replied, “Young brothers, you must not divulge Master Alastair’s return or the path to longevity to anyone. This matter is of utmost importance and any negligence may jeopardize our future. We might miss out on a hundred years of longevity! After witnessing Master Gideon today, I believe none of you juniors would wish to perish before reaching a hundred years of age, am I right?”

Everyone’s countenance turned grave as they chimed in unison, “Indeed, we do not wish for such a fate!”

Renard nodded and said, “Then remember my words!”

Night fell.

Gideon sat cross-legged in his temporary residence, lost in deep thought. While he appeared to be meditating with closed eyes, his mind was preoccupied with when he should depart for Aurous Hill.

Suddenly, his mobile phone buzzed, alerting him to a message from Lord. He swiftly powered on the device, accessed the special software and established a connection.
