"Forget it. I want to see what Zhao Qingzhi is up to—buying medicine and making it so mysterious, already here but still watching from next door."
Yao Lai snorted coldly and prepared to go to the next room.
"Old master Yao, though sudden, please go alone to meet father."
"Trust me, you won't regret it."
Seeing Yao Zi'er and others preparing to follow, Zhao Wuji immediately stopped them.
"Zi'er, you all stay here. I'll see what this old man is up to."
Seeing Zhao Wuji stop Yao Zi'er, Yao Lai narrowed his eyes and said coldly.
Then he left alone to the room where Zhao Qingzhi was.
Of course, this was with familiarity.
If he didn't know the situation, Yao Lai wouldn't dare go alone to meet a stranger.
If the other party was reckless and hostile, it would be bad.
But since it's the Zhao Family, he wasn't worried—if anything happened, the Zhao Family would be concerned.
Seconds later, Yao Lai pushed open the door to Zhao Qingzhi's room.
"Who are you? Where's Zhao Qingzhi?"
After entering, Yao Lai narrowed his eyes and coldly said to Zhao Qingzhi inside.
"Brother Yao, I'm right here."
Zhao Qingzhi smiled.
"You are Zhao Qingzhi?"
Yao Lai looked at him suspiciously.
"Could someone really impersonate me?"
Zhao Qingzhi smiled.
"Impossible. You cannot be Zhao Qingzhi. Although you look very similar, your age doesn't match. He is nearly a hundred, but you appear to be in your sixties or seventies. How could you be Zhao Qingzhi?"
Yao Lai doubted.
"Sixties or seventies?"
"That's only a change in appearance."
Zhao Qingzhi smiled.
At that moment, a powerful aura appeared from Zhao Qingzhi.
This aura was domineering and dignified, shaped by nearly seventy years in business.
"You really are Zhao Qingzhi?"
"What's going on?"
"Don't say it's from taking my Yao Family's divine medicine."
"No force in this world understands divine medicine better than my Yao Family."
"No known Heaven and Earth divine medicine can make someone return youth overnight, regaining the vigor of their twenties or thirties."
"Could it be your Zhao Family discovered a new divine medicine that rejuvenates?"
Seeing Zhao Qingzhi's aura, Yao Lai's expression hardened.
He almost confirmed this was Zhao Qingzhi.
Such overwhelming aura is rare.
Even he, having led Yao Family for decades, only cultivated such an aura now.
He believed no one else except Zhao Qingzhi, who built Zhao Family into a top Aristocratic Family from nothing, could have this aura.
"Brother Yao, close the door and let's talk in detail."
Zhao Qingzhi smiled at Yao Lai.
"All right."
Yao Lai nodded without hesitation.
Soon, Yao Lai closed the door and sat beside Zhao Qingzhi.
"Brother Zhao, can you tell me now?"
Once seated, Yao Lai eagerly asked.
"Our Zhao Family does not have any divine medicine that reverses aging."
"Before today, I didn't even know that any long-established forces knew about divine medicine, until you spoke of the secret."
Zhao Qingzhi shook his head.
"If it's not divine medicine that reverses aging, then what is this change in you, Brother Zhao?"
Yao Lai's tone grew serious.
"Brother Yao, do you think this table is sturdy?"
Zhao Qingzhi ignored the question and asked something unrelated.
"Bang bang."
"Solid wood table, naturally sturdy."
Yao Lai was puzzled why Zhao Qingzhi asked but still knocked on the table to answer.
"Crack."
The moment Yao Lai answered, Zhao Qingzhi shocked him by snapping off a corner of the sturdy table with his bare hands.
"How is this possible?"
"Brother Zhao, do you practice Martial Arts? Only a Martial Arts Master could snap solid wood barehanded."
"No, the Medical Martial Master who examined you before was from my Yao Family. According to him, you were a dying ordinary man."
"If you were a Martial Arts expert, he wouldn't have missed it."
"Back then, you were ordinary. But in just a few days, you went from near death to rejuvenation, gaining strength not less than a Martial Arts Master."
"Brother Zhao, what exactly happened to you?"
"What's the purpose of meeting me? Don't say it's to buy my Yao Family's divine medicine."
"No divine medicine can cause your changes. You don't need divine medicine. If others learn of your transformation, no one will not covet your secret."
"Even I, once away, would investigate your secret fully."
"You show no concealment, openly revealing your change to me. What's your goal?"
Yao Lai looked seriously at Zhao Qingzhi.
"If you want to know my secret, Brother Yao, I can tell you everything now."
Zhao Qingzhi smiled.
"Tell everything? Brother Zhao, what do you want?"
Yao Lai looked at Zhao Qingzhi with confusion.
"People bustle for profit, come and go for benefit."
"My purpose is profit."
"And I can say plainly, this profit comes from your Yao Family."
"But after paying, the return you get will exceed your wildest dreams."
Zhao Qingzhi smiled at Yao Lai.
"Profit? I get a return?"
"Brother Yao, can you be more specific?"
Yao Lai asked seriously.
"What do you think of the legend of the Immortal God?"
Zhao Qingzhi asked.
"The Immortal God legend is illusory, unreliable."
Yao Lai shook his head.
"But what if I told you the Immortal God legend is real?"
Zhao Qingzhi looked seriously at Yao Lai.
