The helper caught on and left immediately. Soon, he came in with a wooden box. "Kid, I'm giving this to you as a gift." Christopher received the wooden box before passing it to Dustin. Dustin opened it up carefully and was greeted by a unique smell. Inside the wooden box laid a colorful Cherusia. The Cherusia was the size of a palm. It appeared delicate and beautiful, resembling a perfect work of art. When illuminated by the light, it sparkled with radiant colors, creating a breathtaking sight. "It really is the Cherusia!" Dustin's face lit up as he jumped to his feet. He shook Christopher's hand enthusiastically. "Thank you so much for agreeing to give this to me, General Murray!"Christopher appeared genuinely generous as he replied, "I have no use for it myself anyway. Besides, I gain a favor by giving it to you.""I can't express my gratitude enough. Please do not hesitate to let me know if you ever need my help," Dustin said.The Cherusia was invaluable, yet Christo

Meanwhile, inside a luxurious courtyard within the Murray residence, a young, lean man dressed in fine clothing was having coffee with Caden."Mr. Diego, what brings you here?" Caden smiled as he poured Diego a cup of coffee."Thank you." Diego nodded politely."I've long heard about your greatness, Mr. Caden. I came here today with the main intention of getting to know you." Diego had a strong foreign accent."Mr. Diego, there is no need for such pleasantries," Caden remarked. "Please, feel free to speak your mind. Let's have an honest conversation.""Mr. Caden, since you prefer to be straightforward, I won't beat around the bush any longer."I came here today in hopes of meeting General Murray. But unfortunately, he was too busy and had no time to see me. "I was hoping you could put in a good word for me." As he spoke, Diego gestured for his men to bring over a long wooden box. The box was about four feet long, and when opened, it revealed an ornate curved longsword. Dieg

"Sir Murray has given the Cherusia away." Mrs. Patty shook her head. "He gave it away? To whom?" Caden's smile froze. "A young man named Dustin." Mrs. Patty told him the truth. "What? He gave it to that brat?" Caden frowned, and his expression turned dark. How could he give a precious treasure like the Cherusia to a loser like Dustin? He was too foolish!Even if Dustin had saved Sheila before, they had already rewarded him. Was it necessary to treat him that well?"Can we get it back?" Caden couldn't accept it. He had even confidently promised Diego. He didn't expect problems to arise so quickly."You know Sir Murray's personality. He would never get something he's given away back." Mrs. Patty put down that thought. "Damn it! Just what makes him worthy of such a treasure?" Caden was fuming. "Mr. Caden, who is this Dustin? It seems like General Murray favors him.""He's no one. My father likes him just because he saved my daughter once," Caden explained. "From what

The next morning, Dustin drove to Swinton after making arrangements at Zephyr Lodge.Now that he finally got his hands on the Cherusia, he had all the herbs he needed. Everything was set.He didn't know how long Gregory could hold up with the Celestial Decay. He had to produce the Longevitum as soon as possible so as not to have to worry about him. It took Dustin about half a day to reach Peaceful Medical Center.All was quiet and peaceful in the medical center. Gregory lay on an easy chair, drunk, as usual. He stank of alcohol.Caitlyn busied herself around the place, wiping the chairs and tables, doing the laundry, and cooking. She kept the medical center clean and in order.As for Maximus, the sword fanatic, he focused on training in the yard.While he used to be known as Lightning Blade, he now focused on slowing down. Though it didn't look much, his every move was restrained yet powerful.He changed his way of wielding his sword and reached a new level of swordsmanship. I

It wasn't until he saw the faint smile on Dustin's face that he knew what was going on."Oh, get lost, you little brat!" Gregory huffed.Then, he made himself comfortable on the easy chair and got ready to sleep again."Come on, stop sleeping. I've got serious business." Dustin took out two wooden boxes and placed them on the table. One had the thousand-year green lotus, and the other had the Cherusia."I've made a decent haul in Millsburg this time. The last two remaining herbs are here. I can start producing the Longevitum now.""Oh? So soon?" Gregory sat up lazily. "I thought my days were numbered. Who'd have thought that you actually managed to collect all the herbs. How fortunate!""Enough with your nonsense. Go bring out all the herbs we collected from before," Dustin urged."Alright, alright, I'll go get them." Gregory stretched sluggishly before searching through several drawers and cupboards. It took him a while to find all the herbs that he'd hidden away."Maxim

"What?" Dustin became worried when the furnace exploded. He was so close to success. Why? Why had the furnace exploded? Had all his previous efforts gone to waste now?"No … That's impossible!" Dustin shook his head, sweat dripping uncontrollably.He was unwilling to believe he failed and refused to accept this outcome. He began to comb around the debris of the exploded furnace. He went through every piece and every fragment.He searched through them like a wolf, searching for its prey, hungry and wild. Suddenly, he paused.Under all the debris and residue, he saw a hint of gold.The shiny gold color shone through the residue surrounding it like a ray of light in the dark. It was eye-catching.After a brief pause, Dustin slowly reached out to dust the residue around it away.Bit by bit, inch by inch, he removed every piece of debris and residue from it with his heart in his mouth. Finally, a perfect gold pill appeared before his very eyes.The gold pill was crystal clear, and

Gregory had no plans to let them drink more of his vodka, apart from the three tiny shot glasses he poured.Dustin, Maximus, and Caitlyn exchanged looks of disbelief.In the end, Gregory finished the remaining vodka himself."That was some good vodka!" Gregory burped after he was done drinking. He looked refreshed and in high spirits.Now that he was happy and content, he picked up the Longevitum and swallowed it.With a gulp, the Longevitum slid down his throat, giving out a burst of golden energy. It coursed through his entire body.The energy contained a strong and vibrant vitality, nourishing Gregory's body like a spring of living water. His circulatory pathways, which had dried up, began to flow. Color returned to his pale face.There seemed to be a glimmer of gold in his old, cloudy eyes. Changes began to take place in his limbs, organs, skin, muscles, and hair.Gregory's frail old body quickly absorbed the vitality of the golden energy.Soon, his white hair slowly turne

Caden lay unconscious in a VIP ward in East Swinton Hospital.He was pale, and his breathing was weak. His heartbeat was slow, and his body felt cold to the touch. At a glance, he looked like he was dead.A group of specialists were in the ward, whispering among themselves. They were discussing his condition and thinking of all the possible treatment methods they could use.But after a long time, they came up with nothing. None of them could suggest a treatment plan.Lily, Sheila, Vivian, and Evan stood at the side. There was nothing they could do except panic."Dr. Johnson, how's my husband's condition? Can you treat him?" Lily finally asked after seeing how they had discussed for a long time and yet still unable to come up with anything."Mr. Caden's condition is weird. We've gone through all our medical books but couldn't find any condition matching his symptoms. Our hands are tied."Dr. Johnson, the most senior among the doctors, shook his head helplessly. He had never seen
