He could clearly feel that the Kru in front of him was not a disguise, but was truly aging.

Kru hurriedly lit an oil lamp. When he saw the familiar face, tears welled up in his eyes and the infinite grievance in his heart burst out at this moment.

"Sir, I... I finally waited for you... I thought I would never see you again!"

"Tell me quickly, what happened? Why did this happen?" Gu Yuan asked again.

"I...I used a forbidden technique."

Kru recounted the events of that night when he broke into the City Lord's Mansion, overheard the conversation between Shui Ningye and Ming Xing, was discovered by Ming Xing, and finally used forbidden techniques to escape.

"Sir, I thought I couldn't hold out until then. I really... I really have reached the point where my oil lamp has run out."

After expressing the last obsession in his heart, Kru's already very old body suddenly aged again, and Gu Yuan even felt a hint of death.

"No! Kru, listen to me, hold on! I have a way to save you, I will definitely save you! Hold on!"

"System! System, come out to me!"

Holding Kru who was aging rapidly, Gu Yuan yelled at the system in his heart.

Gu Yuan felt endless shame in his heart. If he had not sent Kru to the City Lord's Mansion, how could he have turned from a living teenager into such a dying man?

"The host can exchange for the Ten-Year Resurrection Pill, which requires the host to sacrifice fifteen years of his own life. Do you wish to exchange it?"

"Can the Resurrection Pill save him?"

"It can extend the user's lifespan by ten years and restore the body's aging functions."

"How much longer do I have to live?"

"The host's lifespan is eighty years. Sixteen years have already passed, leaving sixty-four years."

"Change!"

After hearing the system's answer, Gu Yuan exchanged for the Resurrection Pill without hesitation. It was worth it to exchange fifteen years of his life for Kru's life!

"Exchange successful."

"Kru, take it."

After taking out the pill, a strong fragrance of the pill floated in the air, and Gu Yuan stuffed it into Kru's mouth.

The pill melted in his mouth, and the essence inside turned into Kru's life span, which slowly increased, and his aging body was visibly recovering its elasticity.

"That's good."

Gu Yuan breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, there was a system, otherwise he would have felt guilty for the rest of his life.
