Old Mike was obviously worried.
Yang Jing smiled, and then said confidently: "Mike, based on your physical condition, you will have no problem working until you are 90 years old. I can guarantee you that. Do you really think that the time I spent conditioning you and Vivian 20 years ago was in vain? Look at Vivian's physical condition now, and you will know how your body is doing!"
Old Mike smiled bitterly and nodded. He knew his own body best, so he had no doubt about what Yang Jing said.
It is indeed so. Just as Yang Jing said, even though old Mike is 80 years old, his physical condition is much better than that of most elderly people in their 70s. This situation is extremely rare in an old man who is about to turn 80.
And it's not just old Mike. His wife, Vivian, who once suffered from leukemia, is in very good health now. If no one tells her, no one would know that she is an old woman in her eighties. Many people would believe you if you said she was in her sixties.
Old Mike hesitated for a moment before saying, "Cole, you should know that what I said just now was not to shirk my responsibility. I am very willing to take care of the Dragon Fund for you. After all, I watched the Dragon Fund being established and growing. I treat it like my own daughter. But Cole, you should understand that successors like Frank, Harrison, Joseph and Christopher need to have a clear object to be loyal to. They are still young, and although they are extremely loyal to you now, what will happen once we are all old? Who will they be loyal to? So Cole, you should find a qualified successor as soon as possible. This is not only to pass on the Dragon Fund, but also to give Christopher and others a new object to be loyal to wholeheartedly."
Yang Jing stopped and looked at the caddy more than a hundred yards away. He nodded thoughtfully and said, "Mike, you know it's not easy to find a qualified successor. It takes time."
"But you've been searching for fifteen years. Since the Millennium Conference, you said you wanted to find a suitable successor, but now it's 2015..."
Yang Jing made a slight downward motion with his right hand, and then said: "Mike, don't be anxious about this matter. It's useless to be anxious. You know that my master's inheritance is a magical inheritance, so the successor I am looking for is different from the successor in your eyes. Mike, to tell you the truth, the inheritance of our lineage is extremely magical. For example, part of the consciousness of my long-dead master has actually been hidden deep in my mind..."
Hearing this, Old Mike couldn't help but widen his eyes and looked at Yang Jing in disbelief.
Yang Jing nodded and said, "That's right. The skills of our lineage can actually allow a person to truly live another life. In other words, if I find a suitable successor, then even if my body dies, a part of my consciousness can continue to be passed on through my successor. Only when my successor dies will that part of my consciousness truly die."
Old Mike pointed at Yang Jing and asked with a trembling voice: "You mean, once you find a suitable successor, part of your consciousness will continue to exist in your successor? Time is..."
Yang Jing nodded affirmatively, "That's right, Cole, you are right, this is the biggest secret of our lineage, I am telling you now, I hope you can keep this secret for me."
Old Mike sighed, then nodded sincerely.
Yang Jing continued, "It is precisely because of this reason that it is very difficult for me to find a successor suitable for our lineage of skills. It is like fishing for an embroidery needle in the sea..." Yang Jing sighed, "So, Cole, it is not just you who are anxious about this matter. I am also anxious. You know that I can roughly calculate how long I will live. If my calculation is correct, I should live about five years. So, no matter what, I must find my successor within five years."
Hearing this, Old Mike was shocked, "Cole, you mean your life span..."
Yang Jing smiled and said, "Mike, my master once taught me that what is destined to happen will happen, and what is not destined to happen should not be forced. Therefore, I am very open-minded about many things. After all, I still have five years. I am not worried, so what are you worried about? Besides, I already have some ideas about my successor or my disciple. In the next few years, I need to examine him carefully. If he can pass my approval, then you don’t have to worry about the issue of the successor of the Evil Dragon Fund. The most important thing is that even if I die, part of my consciousness can still continue to exist in this world through my disciples..."
Although this is nonsense, it took Yang Jing a long time to come up with this nonsense. Yang Jing had to do this. If he wanted to smoothly take over the Dragon Fund and get the support of Old Mike, he, now incarnated as Cole Smith, had to say this, so that Old Mike could fully support him in the future.
After a pause, Yang Jing looked at Old Mike and said sincerely: "Mike, I need you to support my disciple. Once he takes over the Dragon Fund, I need you to support him without reservation!"
Old Mike nodded again, "Don't worry, Cole. You entrusted the Dragon Fund to me to take care of, and I did it. Now you hand over your disciple to me, and I will take good care of him in the same way!"
