Crazy! Are You Really A Beast Tamer?

Chapter 1006: 479
 

Based on Shu Liangjun’s understanding of Fang Mu, Fang Mu definitely had the capability to develop Tide Bay.

However, the words were on the tip of his tongue when Shu Liangjun swallowed them back down.

Tide Bay was the lifeline of Chang Le Pavilion due to its resource deficit.

Fang Mu’s relationship with Chang Le Pavilion was good at the moment, as they had been cooperating continuously.

If he brought up Tide Bay, Fang Mu might think about negotiating with Chang Le Pavilion over its development.

If Chang Le Pavilion were to refuse, it would inevitably affect the current relationship between Fang Mu and Chang Le Pavilion.

Even if Fang Mu did not overthink it, Chang Le Pavilion’s two Pavilion Masters, Li Xu and Lang Huan, would become wary.

Fearing that Fang Mu had designs on Tide Bay.

If Chang Le Pavilion truly considered Fang Mu a partner, they would likely take the initiative to discuss Tide Bay.

If the people from Chang Le Pavilion brought it up first, he could elaborate on the situation of Tide Bay to Fang Mu thereafter.

Just as Fang Mu had guessed Wang Xu from Truth Hall’s purpose in seeking him out.

Shu Liangjun had also guessed the purpose of Wang Xu’s visit to Fang Mu.

Recalling the rumors about Truth Hall he had heard previously, Shu Liangjun spoke to Fang Mu.

“Little Wood, Truth Hall, with such a great power, now relies on merely two Grandmaster Creators.”

“Truth Hall’s previously most relied upon, Master Lanye, has broken with them.”

“If Truth Hall comes to seek a channel for Grandmaster Creators from you, they will certainly take a very humble attitude.”

“You can ask for more from Truth Hall.”

Fang Mu just smiled noncommittally upon hearing this.

What Fang Mu wanted from Truth Hall was not just to acquire resources.

If it were merely about acquiring resources, Fang Mu could trade with any power.

Fang Mu needed to use the deal with Truth Hall to control them.

This was not something Fang Mu would discuss with Shu Liangjun, as he did not wish to expose his ambitions to anyone.

Having arrived at Lu City via the Beastmaster Alliance’s Teleportation Array, Fang Mu hardly had time to drink a cup of tea.

Li Xu arrived hurriedly with Wang Xu.

Fang Mu had informed Li Xu of his location earlier, and Li Xu led Wang Xu straight to the pavilion.

Fang Mu raised his hand and covered his face with a mask, altering his entire face with Noface Star Paper.

The moment the ghostly mask with rugged patterns was donned, the sunny aura around Fang Mu was instantly suppressed.

Fang Mu, at that moment, not only appeared ruthless but also carried a young man’s defiance.

Seeing this, Shu Liangjun couldn’t help but feel sentimental.

When he was 17 or 18 years old, he only knew about indulging in the delicacies made from high-grade Guardian Beast ingredients within his family.

Nothing like Fang Mu, who was capable of holding his own at such a young age!

With so many capable disciples in Qixing, no wonder they didn’t need to handle many matters in person!

Upon seeing Fang Mu, Li Xu showed a surprised expression.

Li Xu had seen Fang Mu’s true face before.

The disparity between Fang Mu’s current demeanor and his actual appearance greatly startled Li Xu.

If he were to confirm that the youth before him was Fang Mu, Li Xu would find it hard to associate this image with Fang Mu in any other situation.

Wang Xu was not familiar with Fang Mu, who always wore a mask during their previous encounters in the Ancient Battlefield.

Wang Xu greeted Fang Mu with a bow.

“Sir Yanluo, it has been a long time. I hope you don’t mind my intrusion this time!”

Previously, when trading High-purity Life Potions with Fang Mu, Wang Xu had stood very upright.

But now, Wang Xu bowed down.

It seems that breaking off the channel with Master Lanye indeed had a great impact on Truth Hall!

Otherwise, a peak Sequential powerhouse would have no reason to be so humble before him.

Fang Mu had plans to forcefully cultivate Truth Hall.

Therefore, Fang Mu’s demeanor was not as gentle as before, but rather, his voice was cold as he spoke.

“It’s not an intrusion, but I indeed came here because of you.”

“Just state your business directly!”

“All the major powers now have to face the competition in a few months, and I expect Truth Hall is no exception.”

The way Fang Mu treated Wang Xu surprised those familiar with Fang Mu, including Li Xu, She Wan, and Shu Liangjun.

Fang Mu had never adopted such a strong demeanor towards others before.

There was no animosity between Fang Mu and the Truth Hall, otherwise, he wouldn’t have made the trip.

Li Xu could be sure that such an attitude from Fang Mu must have had its own purpose.

Soon, Fang Mu would unveil his intentions.

Li Xu was keenly aware that Wang Xu’s disposition had altered due to Fang Mu’s remarks.

This made Li Xu feel somewhat helpless.

Wang Xu truly placed too much importance on maintaining the Grandmaster Creator channel with Fang Mu.

Such a shift in disposition during negotiations put you on the back foot from the start.

Wang Xu had initially wanted to exchange pleasantries with Fang Mu to foster closer ties.

Since Fang Mu spoke thus, it was clear he hadn’t prepared to give Wang Xu the chance for pleasantries.

Hence, Wang Xu had no choice but to cut to the chase.

“Sir Yanluo, our Truth Hall wishes to collaborate with you to trade Grandmaster-level Creator supplies.”

“We from the Truth Hall will offer prices above the market value in dealing with you.”

Wang Xu’s words confirmed Fang Mu’s suspicions.

Yet, Fang Mu did not respond to Wang Xu’s words; instead, he assertively retorted.

“Since when could Grandmaster-level supplies be measured by market prices?”

“If Grandmaster Creator resources were readily circulating in the market, you wouldn’t be standing here negotiating with me!”

“I’ve heard that your Truth Hall just lost the trading channel with Master Lanye, which must be why you are so eager to establish a new channel for trading Grandmaster Creator resources!”

“Hoping to open up a new trading route for Grandmaster Creator resources!”

In negotiations, it’s always taboo to directly point out the opponent’s weaknesses.

Such behavior is too calculating.

If the negotiating party becomes disgruntled because of this, it could likely lead to an abrupt end to the negotiations.

Shu Liangjun and Li Xu now realized that Fang Mu intended to use this aggressive communication method to suppress Wang Xu’s momentum.

Fang Mu did not object to trading with the Truth Hall, but he wanted to hold absolute initiative in the deal.

Because Li Xu and Shu Liangjun understood Fang Mu well enough, they could see through his varied handling approaches.

But Wang Xu was completely unaware!

Fang Mu’s words filled Wang Xu with immense dissatisfaction, yet he could not refute Fang Mu’s statements.

He also couldn’t just walk away in anger, abandoning the trading channel that Fang Mu controlled.

He had boldly claimed in the council that if he returned utterly empty-handed,

he would not only lose face, causing the Wang Family’s lineage in the Truth Hall not to hold its head high,

but he would also face the reproach of He Wen.

His purpose in seeking Fang Mu was to secure a Grandmaster Creator resource channel to elevate his and the Wang Family’s status within the Truth Hall.

Considering this, even though Fang Mu’s assertiveness made Wang Xu very uncomfortable, Wang Xu still said in a low voice,

“Sir Yanluo, I indeed misspoke just now!”

“How could such precious resources as Grandmaster elixirs appear on the market?”

“I truly wish to urgently secure a trading channel for Grandmaster Creator resources, and I hope you can give me this opportunity.”

“If you are willing to grant this opportunity to me, I will certainly reciprocate.”

“I come with sincerity!”

Having said this, Wang Xu took out a wooden box and handed it to Fang Mu.

She Wan quickly stepped forward to take the wooden box and opened it in front of Fang Mu.

A sacred radiance seeped from the crevices of the wooden box.

Fang Mu felt a pure light energy from it, along with a unique rhythm.

This rhythm could temporarily be considered as a unique form of energy.

Shu Liangjun recognized the object in the wooden box at first glance.

The box contained Clean Radiant Light, a special resource produced exclusively by the Sacred Truth Hall.

Clean Radiant Light exists in a solid state and is easy to preserve.

Wang Xu’s offering of Clean Radiant Light as a gift fully demonstrated his sincerity!
