President’s Sweet Wife novel Chapter 938

With a solemn expression, Archie asked, “What is it?”

“To help him find the Celestial Book.”

Surprised by her answer, Archie was very quiet for a minute.

“Didn't see that coming, did you?”

Archie shook his head.

“According to your description, he’s far from old but with great power. Therefore, he was not supposed to be interested in immortality. Anyone with sanity could figure out, that the legend is nothing more than a giant lie.

It worked as a bait that lured those who wish for immortality. In fact, there's no such thing as everlasting life in this world, and no one had ever found the secret of it. Therefore, he was either joking about finding the Celestial Book, or the Book itself had other effects rather than a mere Elixir.”

Natalia nodded in agreement.

“I agree. On top of that, it's most likely that he has kept the truth a secret. And I have another wild guess.”

Archie turned to look at her, “Really? Tell me.”

“I wonder, could it be that he has planned the whole thing himself? When the Celestial Book first appeared and he asked Felix and Queeny to help him look for it, he actually has another purpose. In addition to that, those mysterious legends are, in fact, spread out by him.”

Her words caught Archie's attention, making him even more curious.

“So what are his purposes for doing so?”

Natalia grinned, “It's actually pretty simple. He said it himself. There are twelve pieces in total. Only when you piece them all together will the Celestial Book produce tremendous energy, and the miracle should happen. Now that he asks Felix to find the rest six pieces, which means he only has five in hand, six counting the one from Felix.

Over the years, he must have been searching for them himself, but he lost his patience.

He was too eager to find the rest, so he spread out words that the magical elixir did exist. It can bring the dead to life and make humans immortal. Thereby many people would “help” him look for it.

By then, news about the wonder would have begun to spread. Through sifting, he’ll be able to discern the credible ones. Sooner or later he will find all the pieces.”

Hearing this, Archie smiled appreciatively.

“That was brilliant. Maybe the five pieces he possesses now were also found in this way. Then why did he suddenly turn to Felix for help?”

Natalia shook her head.

“I have no idea, but I am pretty sure that he is becoming desperate. His deadline for Felix is four months, which means he needs the Celestial Book to be complete, in order to do something important four months from now. But it is absolutely impossible to achieve that goal himself, that's why he turned to Felix.”

For a moment, Archie lapsed into silence.

“I think you are right on point.”

Natalia giggled, “Of course I am!”

“Well, my Lia has that sparkle.”

She blushed scarlet because of his flirting words.

“Come on! Focus on the matter at hand.”
