Chapter 1063: Chapter 673: The Deal with the White-Robed Grandmaster
Longevity Club’s top-tier mission hall was nearing the end of its gathering. Most of the hundreds of tasks that had been posted in the hall were already taken, with only a few exceptionally difficult ones left. However, many elite tycoons were still standing in front of these tasks, clearly hesitating whether to take them on or not.
Contrastingly, the hall’s only S-rank task was conspicuously unattended. The task, concerning the Longevity Pill, had been hanging there for over a month. From start to finish, even the wealthiest tycoons, with fortunes in the trillions, merely shook their heads and walked away without paying much attention.
But now, in front of the Longevity Pill task, stood a middle-aged man in white. He appeared quite ordinary, with nothing particularly noticeable about him. However, a closer observation would reveal a faint ethereal aura quietly emanating from him.
This aura was a sign that the man, a peak mid-level Great Grandmaster, was close to a breakthrough.
Naturally, this man was the guardian deity of the Xiangjiang Long family and also the personal bodyguard of the family’s young master.
At this moment in the hall, after taking their respective tasks, hundreds of top tycoons were mingling together. However, it was evident that they were consciously forming several layers of circles based on their connections, status, and wealth.
Those with a net worth of under one hundred billion, who could only join by paying expensive membership fees, naturally formed the lowest circle.
Following that were the tycoons with net worths between one hundred billion to three hundred billion. With similar assets and status, and also numerous business dealings among them, these individuals formed the largest circle.
Above them was the circle formed by tycoons with a net worth of three hundred billion to five or six hundred billion. This circle included the wealthiest man, Zhang Dahua, and the chairman of Xingyue Technologies, Cao Renyi, and others.
As for the highest circle, it naturally comprised the elite tycoons with a net worth of seven to eight hundred billion and even including billionaires.
While everyone was exchanging pleasantries, Chu Mo finally appeared as the gathering was about to conclude. Being the powerful man behind Longevity Club and the one controlling all the Longevity Pills, Chu Mo’s arrival caused quite a stir at the venue. Many cast their eyes towards him, of course, only the most elite tycoons, those near-trillionaires, could afford to actively toast and greet Chu Mo. As for the lesser wealthy tycoons, they could only quietly watch from a distance.
Ross Rothschild, a direct descendant of the Rothschild family and also a core member of the most elite circle, could have an equal conversation with Chu Mo. The two had established a cooperative relationship long ago, hence their relationship seemed closer.
After clinking glasses with the Rothschild scion, Chu Mo briefly exchanged pleasantries and then chose to leave. His target was very clear as he passed by each elite tycoon, nodding his head respectfully. Finally, he approached the man in white.
Chu Mo gently stopped in front of him, raised his glass to the man in white, and slowly said,
“Mr. Bai, I did not expect us to meet so soon!”
Half a month ago, Chu Mo had reconciled with the Xiangjiang Long family, during which the young master had come to Longevity Club to take on an S-rank task. It was then that Chu Mo had witnessed the fearsome prowess of this guardian deity of the Long family.
As a fearful peak mid-level Great Grandmaster, the man in white could take on two opponents alone. Even Qin Lan and Lei Ting together were no match for him. It was from that moment that Chu Mo realized the lack of top-tier combat power around him and since then had been keen on enhancing Qin Lan’s strength, leading to his collaboration with Liu Ping.
The man in white, his gaze intense, stood with his arms folded in front of him, radiating a formidable aura that struck fear into those around him. After taking a deep breath, he finally spoke,
“Mr. Chu seems quite spirited, I presume you’ve had some gains.”
Half a month earlier, Chu Mo had made a promise with the man in white that if he could acquire a precious Longevity Pill, Mr. Bai would help Qin Lan advance to a peak mid-level Great Grandmaster.
Currently, Qin Lan had only recently become a mid-level Great Grandmaster. In both strength and experience, he was significantly behind the well-known Grandmasters. Chu Mo’s only option to boost his side’s top battle power quickly was to help Qin Lan enhance his strength, and the man in white was his only hope.
Chu Mo didn’t conceal anything, just smiled and nodded, shifting his gaze to an old man with white hair in the corner. In a calm voice, Chu Mo said,
“Indeed, Mr. Bai, as you predicted, I have just acquired a Longevity Pill from Elder Liu. I’m not sure if Mr. Bai will keep his promise now.”
The reason Chu Mo agreed to help Liu Ping reclaim control over the Four Great Families, wanting Liu Liu to become his new spokesperson, was just one aspect. Most importantly, it was the Longevity Pill in Liu Ping’s possession. Liu Ping had promised Chu Mo that if he helped him reclaim the Four Great Families, the Longevity Pill would belong to Chu Mo.
