Hence, as everyone looked on, Jaden audibly kowtowed thrice before Frank and took the Jade Marrow Pill with a look of gratitude.

As soon as it went down his throat, it turned into pure life essence flowing down Jaden's gullet.

Jaden's pupils dilated even as he felt the life essence of the body unfurling in his body, and his body cracked audibly even before he cultivated it.

It was a sound that delighted Jaden instead of causing a panic, as it was the sound of his meridians remodeling themselves, while his meridian nexus regenerated and expanded.

In fact, he seemed to hear splashing as if from a waterfall, and his withered meridian nexus was suddenly filled with liquid pure vigor.

It soon flowed throughout his meridians, repairing his wounded body and organs.

"What is this pill..."

Jaden was astounded his cheeks were pale and he felt exceedingly tired earlier, but his body was suddenly light and his cheeks were a healthy red.

He stared blankly at his hands just then, euphoric as he felt a strength greater than what he had before.

He could leap several meters up the air right then!

"It's a Jade Marrow Pill," Frank calmly explained. "Normal people who take it would gain longevity, while martial artists would have their vigor and life essence restored."

He was impressed by how Jaden made a full recovery so quickly too-the Jade Marrow Pill worked better than he thought.

Still, making more would mean troubling Kat.

"Thank you for this, Master Lawrence!"

Thrilled, Jaden went down on his knees once again, his gaze worshipful and reverent toward his mentor.

The man must be a miracle worker to be able to make such pills!

"It's fine. You really don't have to go that far."

Frank waved Jaden off and pulled him to his feet with pure vigor, smiling. "By the way, you didn't tell me why you're here."

"Me?"

Jaden did a double take and sighed exasperatedly. "My father sent me here... I really don't like social events like this one, but the host is Eddie Clarke and a major client of the family. I had to make an appearance since his family was insistent." "I see." Frank nodded, while quickly catching on that Eddie must have invited the Favonis to look good.

In contrast, being unknown as he was, his presence was really embarrassing for Gina.

"That reminds me..."

After greeting Frank, Jaden glanced at the two security guards standing behind Frank and asked, "What's your business here?"

The two security guards were clearly coming after Frank, or they would not be standing that close otherwise they only stopped because Jaden was there. "M-Mr. Favoni..."

As one of the two security guards noticed Jaden glaring at them, he braced himself and explained, "Mr. Clarke told us to eject this man, saying that he is an embarrassment." "What?!"

Disbelief showed on Jaden's face, and he was shaking with rage as he pointed at Frank. "You're saying that my mentor is an embarrassment to the Clarkes?!"
