Chapter 53: Longevity and Magic Pill, Old Deng Becomes a Young Man
Free and easy Lord!
These four words echoed in Chen Mingyuan's mind over and over again.
For some reason, when he heard the young man in front of him say that he was Xiaoyao Tianzun, he did not doubt it but believed it instead.
Is it because this young man has a temperament that he can't see through? "Are you really Xiaoyao Tianzun?" Chen Mingyuan asked in surprise.
Even though he believed that the person in front of him was Xiaoyao Tianzun, he still subconsciously wanted to ask again.
Who is Xiaoyao Tianzun? He is the number one on the gold list and the supreme emperor.
How could it appear here? How could it appear here?
Chen Lan did not answer his question, but looked straight at Chen Mingyuan: "Do you want to live?"
After hearing these words, Chen Mingyuan was shocked and fell silent.
Does he want to live?
Of course he did. What he said to his granddaughter before was just to make her less sad.
Who doesn't want to live? He wants to see his motherland prosper, he wants to see his granddaughter walk into the palace of happiness in her wedding dress, and he has many, many wishes that he has not had time to realize.
"I... want to live." After a long time, Chen Mingyuan's eyes revealed a hint of determination. He wanted to live.
"I have an elixir of immortality here, Mr. Chen. If I let you take it, you will be immortal from now on. Will you take it?"
Chen Lan flipped one hand, and a crystal clear pill appeared in the palm of his hand.
The pill is not big, about the same size as a candy, but it is small and exquisite, and is engraved with countless patterns full of Taoist charm.
Looking at the pill in Chen Lan's hand, Chen Mingyuan swallowed.
Is this the legendary elixir that can make people immortal?! Who hasn't heard of immortality? At least three quarters of the Chinese people want immortality.
Now, this opportunity is right in front of him. As long as he takes this pill, he can live forever and live forever until the world is destroyed! Chen Mingyuan looked at the immortality pill in front of him and hesitated.
After a long time, he closed his eyes and sighed: "This pill is too precious, I am not worthy of it."
"In that case, how about you I contribute this pill to the country so that they can research the secret of immortality and make all the people in the country immortal? " Chen Lan continued.
Upon hearing this, Chen Mingyuan's eyes lit up, revealing a brilliant light:
"That's a good suggestion. If it can really make the people of the whole country immortal, then this pill will really play its role. It would be a waste to waste it on my dying body."
After listening to Chen Mingyuan's words, Chen Lan raised the corners of his mouth slightly, put away the pills, walked to the balcony, and looked out the window:
"I admire your character and your great and selfless spirit of dedication, which is something I cannot learn."
Chen Lan was telling the truth. These people were the ones he admired most in his life, and so was his father.
He will always remember that day was his birthday and his father had to go out on an urgent mission. Between the country and the family, his father chose the country.
After that night, he never came back.
He never blamed his father, but always respected and admired him.
Since you have assumed that position, you must shoulder the responsibilities that come with it! This was what my father said.
There are very few people in the world who are so selfless that they can refuse the temptation of immortality.
It's so rare.
"No, Emperor Xiaoyao, you are also the person I admire the most." At this time, Chen Mingyuan shook his head and said.
"Hmm? What do you mean?" Chen Lan turned around and looked at Chen Mingyuan.
"You have such a powerful force, but you don't use it to do whatever you want. You suppress your inner desires. You are the most powerful person I have ever seen."
"During this period of time, I have seen countless people who have become immortal cultivators and have started to commit crimes, forcing women into prostitution, and burning, killing, and looting. They are all unable to control their inner desires, which are infinitely magnified under the blessing of powerful forces."
"And you, however, are able to hide yourself from the world, not be arrogant or impatient, and even be so low-key. This is really admirable."
Chen Mingyuan blurted out what was in his mind.
From the moment the game came into being, he was worried that these people would cause harm to the country, especially Emperor Xiaoyao.
He was the most afraid because this man's strength was beyond compare and far exceeded that of everyone else. With just one thought from him, everyone in the world would die.
What humans cannot control most is their desires. Once they gain powerful strength, the desires hidden deep in their hearts will be infinitely magnified and become a bottomless black hole! However, Xiaoyao Tianzun did not choose to reveal his identity, but hid in the dark, like a transcendent master who traveled through the mortal world, mysterious and powerful.
It's admirable.
Chen Lan was slightly stunned, then smiled and said: "Mr. Chen, China will prosper with you."
"You too. With you, China enjoys peace and prosperity." Chen Mingyuan said immediately.
Chen Lan said nothing, but stretched out his index finger and said calmly: "Before I came, millions of people begged me to save you, but there were still a few people who asked me not to waste elixirs to save you. When you heard this, were you chilled? Are you angry?"
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
Chen Mingyuan was stunned, then smiled bitterly: "He has lived for more than a hundred years, and his bones are old. There is nothing to save him. Everyone has selfish desires, so there is nothing to be angry about."
"But I don't like it."
As soon as he finished speaking, the clock started ticking and the ticking sound began again.
Whoosh! In an instant, the balcony curtains were blown up by the strong wind, and white gas visible to the naked eye flew in one after another and condensed on the tip of Chen Lan's index finger.
"These are life essences that can prolong your life. If taken together with the elixir of immortality, they can ensure that you will not die and will live forever."
Hearing this, Chen Mingyuan looked at the ball of life with a fiery gaze, swallowed his saliva, and thought of something, looking at Chen Lan in surprise: "Aren't you afraid of defying fate?"
The granddaughter said that the reason no one dared to save him was because he died of old age, which was fate.
Whoever saves him will go against the will of heaven and be punished by heaven!
"Destiny? Haha, does he dare?" Chen Lan laughed.
Chen Mingyuan was silent.
He forgot that the person in front of him was the Supreme Emperor. His strength was stronger than the so-called Heavenly Dao. If he disobeyed Heaven's will, what could Heavenly Dao do to him? "Thank you, Emperor!" Chen Mingyuan thanked him, picked up the ball of life and immortality pills, and swallowed them in one gulp.
As the elixir of longevity and immortality entered his stomach, a magical scene occurred.
Chen Mingyuan's old face and white hair slowly returned to his youthful appearance as if time had gone back.
There is not a single wrinkle on his face and his hair has turned black. He looks like a young man in his twenties, handsome and sunny!
"Is this... really me?" Chen Mingyuan looked at the tender white hands, unable to believe it, and blurted out.
He was completely surprised when he found that his voice had also become younger.
Is this the power of the elixir of immortality?
This is so scary, I really feel like I’m rejuvenated!
But suddenly, he found a suspicious point.
"Excuse me, Your Majesty, where did you get that life span?"
