Three seconds later, a faint azure light burst forth from Qin Baonan, forming a delicate halo that was both magical and mysterious. The Qin family stared in astonishment; it seemed that this elixir was indeed extraordinary.
The azure light swirled around Qin Baonan, visibly transforming his pale, sickly face into one that gradually regained its color. Finally, as the azure glow faded, Qin Baonan slowly opened his eyes.
"What are you all doing?" he asked instinctively, noticing the group staring at him in disbelief.
"Grandpa, you're okay!" Qin Xiaoya exclaimed, nearly jumping with excitement.
Qin Baonan was taken aback, gradually coming to his senses. "I feel completely fine. What happened?"
Sitting up from the sickbed and moving around a bit, he found that his body was agile and free of discomfort. This left Qin Baonan both surprised and delighted; he had thought he was nearing the end of his life, yet here he was feeling vibrant again.
Seeing this scene, Qin Xiaoya's father was overjoyed and proudly said, "Dad, this is all thanks to Qin Xiaoya. She found a master today and spent a billion to buy a Life-Extending Pill. According to her, this pill can extend life by ten years!"
"Is that so?"
Hearing that he could live for another ten years filled Qin Baonan with excitement. It took him a while to calm down as he looked at Qin Xiaoya with a grateful smile. "Qin Xiaoya, you truly are a wonderful granddaughter. By the way, where is that master? Bring him to Beijing so I can thank him properly."
"Sure, I'll invite him over later. He probably won't come today," Qin Xiaoya replied with a smile, unwilling to reveal Jiang Chen's identity in front of so many people.
With such great abilities, if word got out about Jiang Chen, countless people would seek to curry favor with him. Qin Xiaoya had no intention of sharing this matter with others.
Seeing that the old man was truly fine, the members of the Qin family felt a mix of emotions; their dreams of dividing the inheritance were shattered.
Especially Qin Liao, the eldest grandson of the main branch of the Qin family. He had always been overshadowed by his cousin Qin Xiaoya. If Qin Baonan could live for another ten years, he would have to endure being under her thumb for at least that long!
Ten years was unbearable for Qin Liao; he had to reclaim what belonged to him. But now that Qin Baonan was fine, it felt as if he had swallowed something foul.
Qin Liao's expression darkened as thoughts raced through his mind. Suddenly, a smirk appeared on his lips.
"Grandpa, it's great that you're okay! In a few days, you can witness Qin Xiaoya's engagement," Qin Liao said with feigned cheerfulness.
At these words, Qin Xiaoya's expression immediately soured. She turned to face Qin Liao and said sternly, "What nonsense are you talking about? Who am I getting engaged to?"
"Yan Kuai Fei from the Yan family! Oh right, you probably don’t know yet—yesterday the Yan family sent someone regarding this matter. Uncle and your parents have already agreed; they’re just waiting to pick an auspicious date for your engagement," Qin Liao replied with a grin.
The Yan family was one of the Seven Great Martial Arts Families in Huaxia and a top-tier clan in the martial arts world. The engagement between Qin Xiaoya and Yan Kuai Fei had been arranged twenty years ago by Old Master Qin and the elder of the Yan family. However, as they grew up, while Qin Xiaoya became an outstanding figure and a source of pride for Old Master Qin, Yan Kuai Fei turned into a good-for-nothing wastrel. This disappointment led Old Master Qin to reconsider marrying off his granddaughter to Yan Kuai Fei.
