The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family novel Chapter 5665

When he heard the name ‘Fleur Wiley’, Charlie widened his eyes in shock and asked, “The leader of the Qing Eliminating Society is a woman?”

Vera nodded, clenched her teeth, and said, “She’s not only a woman, but she’s the most ruthless woman in the world!”

Charlie asked in surprise, “If she’s your father’s sworn brother’s sister, doesn’t that mean that she has also lived for three to four hundred years as well?”

Vera pondered for a moment and said, “Fleur is one year younger than my father, and she’s twenty-three years older than me. She is already four hundred years old now.”

Charlie said, “She should have taken the Eternal Pill as well, right?”

“Of course,” Vera said emotionally, “The Eternal Pill was given to my father and Fleur by their master. He originally left one pill to each of them, hoping they could continue the cause of overthrowing the Qing Dynasty. In addition to one Eternal Pill each, their master also entrusted the ring on your hand to my father for safekeeping. When the opportunity arises, they can obtain the pills and techniques he left behind, including the secrets of living up to a thousand years.”

“Unexpectedly, after their master left, Fleur suddenly acted on a whim and attacked my father, injured him seriously, and tried to take away my father’s ring and Eternal Pill. The ring sent my father to me at the critical moment, and my father then gave his Eternal Pill to me.”

As Vera spoke of this, she sighed, adjusted her mood, and continued, “I’d better start explaining things to you in detail from the moment when the Qing Eliminating Society was first established. Otherwise, I’m afraid that you will be confused and will not be able to understand what I’m trying to tell you.”

Charlie nodded and hurriedly said, “Please go ahead.”

“In the year 1650, the Qing army marched south to conquer Hilten City. Our army retreated steadily, and the Qing Eliminating Society who fought alongside our army suffered heavy losses as well. My father’s sworn brother, Flynn, died in the battle in Hilten City that year.”

“Before Flynn died, he entrusted his sister, Fleur, to my father. However, my father and the others were also surrounded by the Qing army and had no way to escape. My father had no other way out and could only take Fleur with him to hide in Mount Tason. The two of them almost died in Mount Tason but were fortunately saved by a hermit who was living in seclusion there.”

“The hermit was an Oskian as well. When he saw them being pursued by the Qing army, he pitied them and took them in as his disciples, leaving them to cultivate in Mount Tason. In the year 1658, the Qing army attacked Yorkshire Hill from multiple fronts, and our army was in danger. My father and Fleur then came out of the mountain to fight against the Qing army in Yorkshire Hill.”

“However, their abilities were limited. The Qing army was so strong, and they had a large number of soldiers and horses, including Sanguine, who was assisting the Qing army. Our army was heavily defeated that year, and the tragic war that you hear about in later generations was from that time…”
