My Substitute CEO Bride (Nash Calicraft) novel Chapter 1826

Inside the Kleins' residence, two white-haired men sipped tea and talked with a mysterious-looking person dressed in black robes and a young man in a white suit.

The man in the white suit took a sip of tea. “That’s the magic of the Rejuvenation Formula in reversing aging. It’s entirely up to you to decide how much of its powers you wish to harness!”

The man in the white suit was none other than Alexander Klein. Back in the day, he stole the Young family’s secret to immortality—the Rejuvenation Formula, which could be practiced by anyone of any age.

If one practiced it at a young age, one would stop aging when one turned 18. Those who practiced it at an older age would experience reverse aging.

In the two dozen years he had spent being sealed, he had grasped the workings of the Rejuvenation Formula. Now that he had broken the seal, he had decided to share the formula with Profound Oriental Realm experts as a way of building connections.

“The Rejuvenation Formula is a profoundly mystical technique. You’re too kind, Alexander!”

One of the Profound Oriental Realm experts clasped his hands together as he thanked Alexander excitedly.

That man was Kieran Bailey, the last disciple that the Aoen Sect ever took in.

He had displayed an extraordinary talent for martial arts since he was a boy. The excellent foundations he built up helped him achieve the Mystique Loyalty Realm before he even turned 30.

In an effort to achieve the Profund Oriental Realm, he gave up all his worldly possessions, left home, and even broke up with his childhood sweetheart.

After spending over a hundred years in solitude, Kieran finally managed to achieve a breakthrough into the Profound Oriental Realm.

However, times had changed.

Upon resurfacing into the real world, he learned that the Aoen Sect, his home, and his confidantes had long since turned into dust.

After returning home, he found a notebook in the belongings his father had left behind.

His father’s dying wish had been to see him settle down.

To make up for those regrets, he decided to get married and start a family.

However, despite asking matchmakers for help, his aged appearance made it so that the only women he was introduced to were old ladies who had seen much better days.

Inwardly, he was still very much a man in his 30s and refused to spend his days with an old woman who had lost all her teeth. All this while, he had been searching for a pill that could help him reverse his aging.
