The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family



Jordan witnessed Todd's miraculous recovery from his seat in the second row. Todd's sickly limbs recovered instantly and became normal again, no longer the frail, dark sticks they seemed to be previously.

Naturally, Jordan was beyond shocked. He whispered to Jarvis beside him, "Master Yant, you're very knowledgeable. Have you ever heard of such a pill in this world?"

Jarvis shook his head with a dazed look. He himself was just as shocked, if not more.

As a martial artist, his understanding of the world's unknown was deeper than an average person. Even so, he had never witnessed such a miraculous medicine.

Filled with emotions, he murmured, "Lord Fox, to be frank, I've never seen such a magical medicine before... Such power that can rejuvenate one's health is far beyond my knowledge."

Jordan chuckled before saying in a solemn tone, "To be honest, this scene reminded me of when Kathleen was a child. Back then, I accompanied her to watch the 1986 edition of the Journey to the West. There was this scene where Sun Wukong tore down the ginseng fruit tree, and then the Bodhisattva came to save the ginseng fruit tree..."

Jarvis nodded emotionally. "I've never watched that version of the Journey to the West, but I've read the original book thrice. I've memorized that scene by heart."

He then added with a longing look, "Lord Fox, this Rejuvenating Pill has the magical effect of rejuvenation. It's comparable to the magic elixir found only in fairy tales."

Jordan's curiosity was roused. He asked," Say, what do you think about the ingredients in the medicine? What makes it so magical?"

Jarvis fell into a short silence. Then, he replied, "My master once told me that there are two powers stronger than the martial art's internal qi. One is a type of essential q i that only a dark realm master would have the chance to master. There is also Reiki, a type of spiritual energy stronger than essential qi."

His face turned serious as he went on, "I think this Rejuvenating Pill may have something to do with Reiki. Even if it doesn't contain any Reiki, it might be made with the help of Reiki. Otherwise, it wouldn't have such an effect."

Jordan was puzzled. "How are you so certain that it must be related to Reiki rather than the essential qi, Master Yant?'

Jarvis explained, "When it comes to essential qi and internal qi, there's a difference in strength. The power disparity between them is huge. Internal gi pales in comparison- essential qi, but they are essentially the same concept. Qi can be powerful enough to destroy

something, but it can never

rejuvenate life."

He continued, "However, Reiki is completely different. According to my master, Reiki is the most fundamental energy for the growth of all living things. Only this energy can be transformed into a magical miracle. Those who can master this energy are more than just martial artists..."

Jordan was dumbfounded. "If what you said was true, does that mean that there's a

strong and powerful person behind the creation of the Rejuvenating Pill?"

Jarvis shook his head. "I can't be

certain about that. According to my master, there seems to be no record of Reiki users in the past few hundred years. The Rejuvenating Pill may have been made by a Reiki user from centuries ago, and was passed into someone's hand by chance before ending up in the auction tonight."

Jordan asked again, "What if this Rejuvenating Pill was made by someone who has mastered Reiki in the present, Master Yant?"

Jarvis was stunned by Jordan's

hypothesis. After a short moment of

silence, he replied slowly, "That's aPublished by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

possibility, but I just can't believe it My master has said that Reiki's practice has long since been lost. It's unlikely for a Reiki user to suddenly appear in Aurous Hill again. I'd rather believe that the Rejuvenating Pill was made by our ancestors."

But Jordan disagreed and said with a grim look, "If it's just about the Rejuvenating Pill, Master Yant, then I will agree. However, have you forgotten? Julian had gone missing in Aurous Hill!"

Jarvis's expression froze. He frowned before falling into deep thought.

At this moment, Todd, after a longstanding silence on stage, suddenly turned to Jasmine and said gratefully, "Miss Moore, thank you! I'm ever so grateful to you and Vintage Deluxe for giving me a new life!"

He sank into a grateful bow to Jasmine. When he looked up, his face was filled with joyful tears.

Jasmine, however, replied solemnly," Number 27, don't have to thank me or Vintage Deluxe. It was the Rejuvenating Pill that gave you a new life."
