?Chapter 989: Chapter 590: Foolish Choice_2 Chapter 989: Chapter 590: Foolish Choice_2 Su Jinghan let out a cold laugh and said, “Qi Tian, do you really think that your proposal can sway me? Use your brain and think about it. Emperor Jianwu and I have lived in the Imperial Family Secret Territory after leaving the Great Zhao Nation for over four hundred years. If we count the years we spent in the Great Zhao Nation, both of us are already over six hundred years old. We are merely cultivators in the Gold Core Realm, so how could we live for so many years? Apart from the lifespan extension our cultivation realm brings us, we actually consumed a lot of elixirs and spiritual items that extend life. We have tried all that we could eat, and all the methods we could use; do you really think you are more capable than us, able to find elixirs and spiritual items that we haven’t tried?”

Qi Tian suddenly became speechless. He indeed knew of some elixirs and methods to extend life, all of which came from Master Ming Ren’s heritage. However, without exception, these methods and elixirs were extremely rare. Among the relics left by Master Ming Ren, there were only records, no actual substances. Qi Tian could have made up some lies, but in front of an old monster who had lived for over six hundred years, such lies would be too easily exposed.

Seeing that Qi Tian remained silent, Su Jinghan’s lips curled into a cold smirk as he said, “Qi Tian, don’t struggle in vain, and don’t fantasize about persuading me with just a few words. I’ll tell you frankly, even if everything you’ve told me is true and not a lie, I wouldn’t believe it. I have really taken a liking to your body. My current body is old, decayed, and lacks vitality; moreover, it’s incomplete. I have long wanted to discard it, but I had not found a suitable replacement until now. Then you appeared, a gift from heaven to me. You are so young, and your body is whole and flawless—truly a perfect choice. Do you think I would pass up such a great opportunity in favor of elixirs that could only prolong my life by a few years or a decade? Not just I, even you would not make such a choice.”
