The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family

After admiring it for a long time, just when Charlie was about to roll the painting up again, he suddenly felt that there was a faint Reiki fluctuation in the painting.noveldrama

This shocked him!

According to Lady Jenson, her ancestor had painted this painting in his old age.

Since he was old, he must have parted ways with Marcius long ago.

Fumiko's ancestor had not mastered Reiki himself, so apart from living longer than ordinary people because of the two Rejuvenating Pills, it was absolutely impossible for him to possess Reiki.

This also meant that the painting he had painted in his old age should not contain any Reiki.

However, there was indeed a very subtle trace of Reiki in this painting. Charlie could not help but think to himself, 'Could Marcius be the one who left the Reiki in this painting?! Perhaps Marcius came back during a certain period of time without the Jenson family's knowledge!"

Charlie calmed down immediately when he thought of this. He transferred a little Reiki and carefully inspected the entire painting to look for the source of that trace of Reiki.

He soon found traces of the Reiki at the head of Marcius's portrait.

Charlie was overjoyed and immediately used Reiki to perceive the other party. At the moment when the two Reikis merged, an image from the first perspective suddenly flooded into Charlie's mind!

In this image, a grand funeral was being held in a mountain village. The people at the funeral were not dressed in modern clothing but were dressed like people from the past.

Charlie was able to recognize that this was the same exact mountain village where Lady Jenson lived from the topography.

The mountain village in the image did not look as dilapidated as it was today. In the image, there was a rather grand wooden courtyard in the mountain village with carved beams and buildings everywhere. It looked like a wealthy and noble family.

However, the image of the funeral was not a coherent real-time picture. Instead, it was more like timelapse photography that was fast-forwarded many times.

A crowd was gathered in front of the coffin in the living room. A

middle-aged man was bawling as he knelt on the ground, and a group of women and children were also crying at the back. There were three paintings hanging on the wall directly opposite them, and it was the exact same three paintings that Charlie had seen in Lady Jenson's house. swnovel

The following image depicted people crying and mourning. Although there were many etiquettes, fortunately, the images passed quickly, and the ceremony was completed in the blink of an eye.

After all the necessary etiquettes were completed, more than a dozen strong men then carried the coffin to the foot of the mountain and buried the coffin there.

Afterward, the group of people returned to the wooden compound. The bustle faded, and several women and family members then left one after the other, leaving the middle-aged man alone in the living room.

However, the e middle-aged man did

not look sorrowful at all. Instead, he smiled as he stood in the middle of the living room and looked at Marcius's portrait that was in the center and said, "Master Marcius, my father passed away three days ago and was buried today. Even if you have the ability to bring the dead back to life, it would be in vain by now. If you've really found the way to longevity, you would have given this opportunity to my father as you promised him back then. My father lived a long life to be a hundred and thirteen years old and was envied by others. I'm already forty-two years old now, and I only hope that you will be able to find a way to longevity and fulfill the promise you made back then!" swnovel

Although the middle-aged man seemed to be speaking in riddles, Charlie understood what he meant. He should be the son of Fumiko's ancestor. At the time when he was standing in front of Marcius's portrait, he was muttering that he hoped that Marcius could discover a way to longevity soon and come back to give him the opportunity that Marcius had promised his father back then. swnovel

To put it bluntly, he was looking forward to Marcius's return so that he could also live forever.

After the man spoke, a gust of wind suddenly blew into the living room, and the man then fell to the ground and fell into a deep sleep.
