Witnessing this, the two of them respectfully seated themselves in front of Morvel Bazin.

Only then did Morvel Bazin begin speaking, saying, “Though the bond between us may be shallow, we are Master and apprentices. You both carry the noble cause of resisting the rebels within your hearts. As teachers and patriots, I hope that you will carry forward this great cause and restore the Chinese nation…”

After finishing his words, he retrieved two pills from his pocket, placing them gently on the stone table before them. He spoke lightly, “These two pills are the same ones Master once mentioned to you. They are called the Eternal Green Pill.

Had I not met you, I would have remained oblivious to the changes in the outside world. Reflecting on it now, although I have lived for a thousand years, the true beauty of life lies within those few decades. The remaining 900 years were dull. In hindsight, perhaps it would have been better if I had never embarked on this path and had the joy of family,
