Chapter 464: Chapter 249: Lu Zhong’s Request!_1
A Master Creator seeking my help could only be for resources of a Grandmaster-level Creator.
Unless it’s something quite urgent, people often choose to subtly hint at the help they need instead of directly stating it.
This is equivalent to sending a signal to the other party, letting them know that your urgency gives them the leverage to demand higher prices.
The purpose of my planning a trade fair was to provide the powers in Lu City with courage and opportunity to connect with me.
Unexpectedly, I received a request from a Master Creator.
And it seemed like the request wasn’t small at all!
Facing a Master Creator, even if I were truly the disciple of a Grandmaster Creator, I’d be willing to actively forge a connection with them.
Especially since my status as a Grandmaster Creator’s disciple was fabricated.
I didn’t associate closely with Yi Han because although he may, as a newly-promoted Grandmaster, desperately seek resources from me, he couldn’t possibly be manipulated by me.
So, my relationship with Yi Han was merely a superficial one of mutual benefit, while Lu Zhong, whose lifespan was nearing its end and who had come to seek something from me,
I could manipulate him on several fronts.
Moreover, with Shui Miao and Shu Liangjun by my side, there would always be people to back me up in terms of strength, so I don’t need to worry about messing up.
Lu Zhong had no idea that the young man walking beside him had already cast his fishing rod, ready to catch this big fat fish!
Shu Liangjun and Shu Miao had hidden their aura, always following behind Fang Mu.
Lu Zhong could see that Shui Miao and Shu Liangjun were not ordinary, but he regarded them only as Fang Mu’s guards.
Fang Mu, a young man running such a big event, Qixing would definitely not feel at ease no matter how ambitious he was.
So, there definitely would be people helping Fang Mu to control the situation, ensuring both his safety and the smooth running of the trade fair.
In fact, if anyone really came to disrupt the fair, Lu Zhong believed that many guests attending the banquet would willingly stand up for Fang Mu in exchange for his favor.
Lu Zhong sought Fang Mu’s help because he had heard that Fang Mu helped the She Family’s Master, She Junjie, heal his Giant Toothed Whale.
Lu Zhong was very clear about the situation of She Junjie’s Giant Toothed Whale, as he helped She Junjie diagnose the Giant Toothed Whale,
And had more than once helped to suppress its injuries.
She Junjie could take the Giant Toothed Whale to the Creation Master Guild Headquarters in the Capital to meet Sect Master Xiao Xiang and get the opportunity for a personal diagnosis from him.
Lu Zhong also helped a lot.
Xiao Xiang, a Grandmaster, being unable to treat She Junjie’s Giant Toothed Whale was something that Lu Zhong did not expect.
Yet Fang Mu achieved something that a middle-level Grandmaster could not, which directly proved that Fang Mu possessed greater energy than Master Xiao Xiang.
It involved the health of a Great Clan Leader’s Guardian Beast, which would be a top secret to a great clan.
Asking such a question was extremely abrupt and impolite.
Because She Junjie owed him a favor, Lu Zhong, taking advantage of this favor, visited She Junjie himself yesterday.
And finally got a positive response from She Junjie.
That was why Lu Zhong came to this trade fair held by the young Fang Mu and showed his support.
Although there was no Grandmaster Creator in Lu City, there were a few Master Creators.
Today, after the trade fair ends and the news of my presence spreads,
People will inevitably think that I am currying favor with the disciple of a Grandmaster Creator.
This will certainly have a great impact on my reputation.
If they don’t care about the impact, the other Master Creators in Lu City would also be very willing to attend the trade fair held by Fang Mu, seeking to make a connection with him.
Since I’m fishing, I certainly need to treat the fish well.
Only then can I lure the fish to bite the hook.
As a “Fishing Method youth”, Fang Mu was very clear about this.
Since Lu Zhong didn’t want outsiders to know about his request, Fang Mu took him directly upstairs,
Ready to provide him an absolutely private space for conversation.
When Fang Mu was present, only those who were the real dominators among all the powerful forces could remain calm.
The others, intimidated by Fang Mu’s aura, were speaking in hushed voices.
After the host of this trade fair, Fang Mu, left, the younger generation present could finally breathe a sigh of relief.
The young nobles born from great families, from observing Wen Yuan’s recent performance, could intuitively feel Wen Yuan’s purpose.
Their eyes were filled with mocking.
But none of them really approached and confronted Wen Yuan.
Even those who had previous grievances with Wen Yuan did the same.
After all, regardless of what Wen Yuan had just done, the current Wen Yuan was still a noble lady of the Gao Family in name and reality.
It was not wise to provoke Wen Yuan at this time.
Wu Yao, Zhao Yingying, He Shiyu, although they looked down on Wen Yuan in their hearts, they all moved forward, caring for Wen Yuan’s situation like sisters.
“Wen Yuan, are you okay? I noticed that your foot seems injured!”
“Wen Yuan, your foot has been seriously injured. I happen to have a contract with a healing beast tamer, why not let me help you heal it!”
As she was talking, Wu Yao had summoned a bird that looked like a peacock.
The tail feathers, like a peacock’s, emitted several strands of green light and fell on Wen Yuan, treating her injuries.
But the corners of Wen Yuan’s mouth twitched uncontrollably.
Wu Yao truly knew how to show off at her expense.
