The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family
Chapter 2822

Holden's lifelong pursuit was to let the Harker family flourish in his own hands.

He would be willing to give up everything, even if it was his own life, for this reason.

This was also the reason why he could endure the blood feud involving his granddaughter, Rosalie, when he was faced with the offer of two billion dollars. This was because in his opinion, although his granddaughter was important, she was still less important as compared to the future of the entire Harker family. 2

However, when he saw Yashita, who had achieved a fully functional Ren meridian, he immediately realized that this opportunity was indeed far rarer and much more important as compared to money. If he had two billion dollars on hand, he would only be able to ensure that dozens of the children in the Harker family would be able to get some help in their cultivation. However, those ordinary medicinal herbs would not be of much help to them. Even if he were to spend the entire two billion dollars on a single person, it would still be impossible for that person to achieve a fully functional Ren meridian. 3

So, Holden could easily tell which was more important.

Therefore, Holden suppressed the shock in his heart a s he asked Yashita for her confirmation once again." Yashita, did you really achieve a fully functional Ren meridian, and did your Du meridian increase from twenty percent to forty percent because you took this divine pill?!"

"That's right." Yashita nodded and said seriously," Dad, I'll not be able to convince you with my words alone. So, you will understand everything after taking one pill!"

Holden was about to take one of the pills, but he lowered the pill again after hesitating for a moment. After that, he smiled before he sighed and said, "I'm already eighty-three years old. If this divine pill is indeed so miraculous, it'd really be a waste for an old man like me to take it. Why don't we ask your eldest brother to come over here and let him try it instead?" 1

Yashita hurriedly said, "Dad, you're the head of the family. You'll also need to personally decide as to whether our family will be collaborating with Young Master Wade in the future. So, you should take one of the pills first to try and see the effect of the pill.

Besides, you're the strongest person with the highest cultivation base in our family. If you were to take this pill, your cultivation base will certainly rise to another level. Perhaps you might even be able to open up your fourth meridian. In that case, it would definitely be another step forward for the strength of the Harker family!" 3

Holden thought for a moment before he nodded slightly as he sighed and said, "I'll take one of the pills and try out the effect, then!"

After he was done speaking, Holden placed the pill in his hand into his mouth.

The pill melted as soon as it entered his mouth.

The surging internal qi spread from his abdomen to his whole body as it gathered in the elixir field through the three meridians that Holden had already opened up.

His Ren meridian, which was originally seventy percent opened, instantly became a fully functional Ren meridian after getting stimulated by this powerful internal qi!

His Du meridian was originally fifty percent opened, and it jumped to seventy percent because of the effect of this medicine!

His Chong meridian, which was originally twenty percent opened, instantly doubled up as he reached forty percent this time!

And his fourth meridian, the Dai meridian that he had been desperately wanting to open up for decades, also showed signs of loosening up!

Holden was overjoyed as he thought that he would have the opportunity to open up his Dai meridian. So, he immediately sat down on the ground as he desperately tried to lead the surging internal qi to launch an impact on his Dai meridian.

The eight extraordinary meridians were naturally closed for any ordinary people. If martial artists wanted to surpass ordinary people in terms of their strength, they would have to do everything that they could possibly do in order to open up their eight extraordinary meridians, which were originally closed. 2

But it was extremely difficult to open up the eight extraordinary meridians!

If a person could open up one of the eight extraordinary meridians, that person would become a master in the eyes of the ordinary people as the person entered the gate of martial arts. Alas, most martial artists would often stop at this step, and most of them would never be able to open up both their Ren and Du meridians in their lifetime.
