Chapter 467: Chapter 250 Lan Lion Angel!_1
 

Having to concoct these elixirs by a Grandmaster Creator would require non-stop work for over a month at the very least.

Both Shui Miao and Shu Liangjun turned their gaze to Fang Mu, curious about whether Fang Mu would actually fulfill Master Lu Zhong’s request.

Upon hearing Lu Zhong’s words, Fang Mu squinted his eyes, showcasing a shocked expression.

But deep down, Fang Mu could hardly contain his joy!

To others, Lu Zhong’s request might seem excessive, but for Fang Mu, it only requires Snakey, the Scavenger, to feast a few times in the Incinerator House.

Then, he would need to bring Snakey to the breeding facilities for Earth Attribute Guardian Beasts and clean up some earth element infused garbage.

Recently, Fang Mu hadn’t sent Snakey to devour garbage merely to keep his “Sequential Spiritual Instrument”, the Purple Ice Crystal Ring, clean.

As for Snakey, devouring spiritual materials packed with water-element energy versus trash with lesser water-element energy didn’t make much of a difference.

The rate at which Snakey could accumulate energy crystals wasn’t correlated with its feeding speed.

It was solely dependent on the processing speed of the Mechanical Heart.

To obtain the loyalty of a Master Creator for centuries, possibly even millennia, with just these resources was undoubtedly a great deal!

The lifespan gained from enhancing the power of Lu Zhong’s Guardian Beast wouldn’t be enough to keep Lu Zhong alive for so long.

However, Fang Mu had other ways to prolong Lu Zhong’s lifespan.

In the past while listening to She Wan discussing the situation in Lu City, she mentioned Lu Zhong.

Through She Wan’s words, Fang Mu learned that Lu Zhong was already an advanced Master Creator.

Getting Lu Zhong to ascend to the level of Grandmaster Creator within centuries, or even millennia, wasn’t an unachievable task.

This gave Fang Mu a potential opportunity to command a real Grandmaster Creator.

Even if Lu Zhong couldn’t reach that level, acquiring the labor power of a Master Creator for centuries was a prospect far beyond anyone’s imagination.

It could bring about tremendous returns for Fang Mu.

Even if Fang Mu could grant all these resources now, he wouldn’t agree to Lu Zhong’s proposal right away.

He had released quite substantial Grandmaster Creator resources recently.

Although many of those resources were released covertly by Fang Mu.

As long as the parties involved didn’t mention it, outsiders would remain clueless.

However, there were still bound to be some conjectures.

Fang Mu must minimize the risks he had to bear as much as possible.

On the other hand, promising Lu Zhong such a vast amount of Grandmaster Creator resources in one go didn’t fit his identity as an apprentice.

Fang Mu had to give Lu Zhong a feeling that it took great effort and toil to successfully extend his lifespan.

Only then would Lu Zhong further appreciate the opportunity offered by him.

Seeing Fang Mu’s shocked and hesitant look, Lu Zhong’s heart sank.

He was terrified that Fang Mu might outright shatter his hopes.

Fang Mu, wanting Lu Zhong to cherish this opportunity, naturally hoped to keep Lu Zhong hanging for as long as possible!

Just as Lu Zhong hit rock bottom, Fang Mu sighed and said,

“Master Lu Zhong, your lion’s share demand has honestly scared me!”

“I really want to help you, but I dare not ask for so many resources from my master all at once!”

“I hope you understand the risks I have to bear.”

“If it’s just a few bottles of Grandmaster-level potions, I could grit my teeth and agree.”

“However, your request is far from simple as a few bottles of potions.”

In essence, Fang Mu had turned down Lu Zhong’s request, and his refusal was both understandable and acceptable.

Certainly, there was no need for Fang Mu to take the risk of displeasing his master for someone he just met like Lu Zhong.

Under such non-affiliation circumstances, both Shui Miao and Shu Liangjun felt they wouldn’t help Lu Zhong either.

Even Lu Zhong completely understood Fang Mu’s predicament.

Yet, given the opportunity to survive, Lu Zhong had to make every effort.

Previously, he had sought help from Shuoyang Grandmaster, who also refused him.

Apart from Fang Mu, there was no one left in the whole Dragon Rising Federation Lu Zhong could seek help from.

After all, among known creators within the Dragon Rising Federation, besides Shuo Yang and Qixing, no one else could concoct Life Elixirs with 94% purity.

Thinking of his situation and his young granddaughter, Lu Zhong didn’t care about the presence of others and knelt down, losing all dignity.

Lu Zhong’s behavior was somewhat out of Fang Mu’s expectation, which also caused Shui Miao to frown in disapproval.

However, Shu Liangjun could deeply understand Lu Zhong’s current situation and knew why he would take such an undignified action.

If Fang Mu provided him with not only an additional ten years of life, but also a chance to gain centuries of it, he might also kneel down and ask for Fang Mu’s help.

Fortunately, Fang Mu didn’t give him such an opportunity, preserving his dignity.

“Mr. Jianmu, I beg you to help me!”

“Not only will I work for you after my promotion, but I will also continuously concoct elixirs during my resting time, converting the Grandmaster Creator resources you generously provided back to you!”

“My proficiency in crafting is not bad, I anticipate that I’ll be able to ascend to the level of Peak Creating Master in a few years.”

“If ever in my lifetime I can step into the realm of Grandmaster, I will continue to fulfill our agreement and work for you!”

Upon hearing that Lu Zhong had gone this far, Fang Mu knew that there was no need for him to continue manipulating Lu Zhong.
