"Dr. Jennings is right!" Toby suddenly said excitedly. "Let's wake him up and let him identify the culprit himself! If anything goes wrong during the process, I'll take full responsibility! I want to see if you, his blood relatives, are truly filial!"Mika's face turned ugly as he shouted angrily, "Even though you're technically my uncle's godson, you're still an outsider. What authority do you have to bear the consequences?"Before Toby could respond, Dark Phoenix suddenly walked into the bedroom. Before anyone could react, she had already administered the vial of Evergrow to Tenan."I don't understand why you're all dawdling. Saving a life is saving a life—so much unnecessary talk!" Dark Phoenix's words left everyone speechless.She then exited the bedroom and looked solemnly at Chad."It's up to you now!" she said.Chad, unperturbed, glanced into the bedroom and saw that Tenan's body was already enveloped in a black mist.The Evergrow had started to transform his body. Howeve

"Mr. Hart!"The Wards did not expect Mr. Hart to come, and they all went to greet him. However, Rustin was only concerned about Tenan's safety and completely ignored them, instead looking at Toby."Toby, you're here too. How's Mr. Ward?"Toby smiled and said, "Don't worry. Dr. Jennings is treating my godfather; the problem isn't serious!"However, that remark provoked Ronan's anger. "What do you mean the problem isn't serious? It's been an hour, and they still haven't come out. Didn't you say he could be cured? This is taking too long!"That obvious nitpicking made Rustin frown deeply. Rustin was quite familiar with the situation of the Wards.When Tenan retired from the cabinet and did not return home, it was because he did not want to get involved in the family's internal strife. It seemed that even though he hid in Orcreek, he still could not escape the schemes of those unfilial descendants.All the Wards looked at Toby. The situation could not be clearer.Toby spread the ne

"What are you all doing in Orcreek? The Cabinet is fine, but you seem to have too much free time?" Tenan, sitting authoritatively in the grand master's chair, sternly rebuked his former students, subordinates, and disciples.Finally, his gaze fell on Matias."And you, a minister, dare to run around? Is this how you usually work?""Uncle, I'm sorry! I heard that you were critically ill, so I—" Matias instinctively tried to explain but stopped mid-sentence.He saw the other Wards family members kneeling on the ground, not daring to rise, and a dead fox lying there.He quickly turned to look outside the living room. He saw endless wheat fields through the courtyard gate but no sign of his guardian spirit. The dead fox on the ground was the same white fox that had just run out to play.Tenan glanced at the six men. "Why are you still standing there? I need to handle some family matters. You can leave now!"Tenan dismissed those six esteemed dignitaries like children.Matias watched

Tenan glanced at Chad and motioned to Weldon, who immediately understood and cleared the room, leaving only Chad, Tenan, and Third Grandpa Fox.Once the doors were closed, Tenan turned to Chad and said, "I was strongly against sending your sister away back then. A little girl going to the celestial realm was a death sentence. But the others agreed, and my opposition was futile."Chad was taken aback. He did not expect Tenan to reveal such a shocking secret before he asked any questions.Tenan said, "At that time, I saw that those willing to go were divided into two factions—the Descent Faction and the Survival Faction. The Descent Faction hoped that the so-called immortals would settle on earth so they could learn the secret to immortality from them."As for the so-called Survival Faction, they believed that if those immortals came to earth, they would slaughter humans indiscriminately. They wanted to get on good terms with the immortals, preparing to become traitors. "Along with

Waves of golden wheat rolled past the car window as Chad stared at the scenery outside, speaking as if to himself, "You were one of those sent to the celestial realm, and you came back from the firmament, didn't you?"Dark Phoenix was stunned for a long time, unable to answer. She had not expected Chad to ask such a question.Seeing her silence, Chad continued, "When all of you went, each of you had a life-detection chip implanted in the back of your necks. How did you manage to remove them?"Dark Phoenix felt like she was going crazy, unable to understand how Chad knew that, but she still did not speak.Chad's next words shook her even more. "The first ones who tried to remove the chips all died. Even those who succeeded didn't live long. Even if someone had the cultivation level of an earthbound immortal, they couldn't withstand the backlash from removing the chip."Dark Phoenix shuddered and instinctively moved closer to the corner of the car.Chad, still looking out the windo
