Life After Prison by Silencieux novel Chapter 1560

Severin chuckled awkwardly and replied, "Oh, you jest. I'd be uncomfortable if you, my father-in-law, addressed me as senior."

Birk joined in the laughter and said, "You're quite the joker! Just like I am. Haha!"

Glancing at the elders and Grand elders, Birk continued, "I guess it's no longer necessary to continue with today's meeting then. I will hand each of you a third-grade high-rank pill, and we'll gather tonight for a toast to my son-in-law—our guest of honor! When tomorrow comes, we'll focus on our training and do our best to secure a breakthrough in our attainment."

He then said to Severin, "I won't have a lot of free time tomorrow, but Sofia will be with you and she can show you around the sect too. When I'm available, we can grab a drink or two. Do enjoy your stay here!"

Severin nodded with a smile. "Of course. I'll make the most of my time here. You and the rest of the sect can focus on advancing your attainment. Don't worry about me."

Sofia playfully interjected with a grin, "Are you satisfied with the betrothal gift, Dad?" Her hands were clasped behind her back.

Birk laughed heartily and said, "You bet I am! These precious pills are something I can't even begin to ask for."

He paused for a moment and frowned, saying, "But I'd be even more delighted if there were a few fourth-grade low-rank pills."

"You're getting greedy, Dad. Fourth-grade pills are highly sought after even by saints," Sofia teased.

He flew to Birk's residence without a second to waste.

Meanwhile, Birk was in high spirits as he lounged in his yard.

"I heard that Sofia returned, and she's now the third wife of an unaffiliated practitioner. Is that true?" Meldrick posed the question to Birk immediately after arriving.

Birk glanced at Meldrick and nodded, saying, "That's right. I'm impressed by how swiftly you've gotten that information when it's only been less than half an hour since she arrived!"
