Chapter 705 I Can Do It
The normal lifespan of a Dao Emperor Realm Practitioner is about two thousand years.
Yan Chao was only around a thousand years old, and under normal circumstances, he had merely used up half of his lifespan, akin to a middle-aged person in his forties or fifties.
Jing Yan also looked at Yan Chao with a puzzled expression.
From the first glance, Jing Yan’s initial impression of Yan Chao was that of an old and frail dragon. Jing Yan had even thought that Yan Chao was much older than a thousand years; however, upon hearing Chang Huan’s words, he realized that Yan Chao was only about a thousand years old.
"Grand Steward, you know I was seriously injured when I was young," Yan Chao shook his head.
"Yes, you told me that you fought many battles for your family and endured numerous injuries," Chang Huan nodded.
"Yes, you know I was injured, but you do not know that the injuries from my youth impacted my lifespan. If I had not fortuitously ascended to the Dao Emperor Realm, I would have long been buried somewhere unknown. That I am alive today, I have actually come to terms with it, but my descendants do not wish for me to give up the last glimmer of hope," Yan Chao spoke calmly.
Although he spoke with equanimity, Jing Yan smiled to himself. He did not believe that Yan Chao did not wish to continue living.
Nevertheless, this need not be brought up.
"So, you want to find Brother Dong He the Great Alchemist King to refine an Elixir that increases lifespan?" Chang Huan nodded.
In this world, there are many treasures that can extend one’s lifespan.
Typically, such items are extremely precious and hard to come by.
