Chapter 1454: Chapter 703: Jiang Weng’s Results!_2

"Master Qixing is occupied with countless pressing matters, diligently working to eliminate those Outer Realm Embryos for the welfare of humanity."

"How could he have the time or inclination to concern himself with whether or not you swear allegiance?!"

"You need not think too much about it—just swear your loyalty to Sir Jianmu."

Elder Jiang had never explicitly addressed this matter in the past, and now that he finally did, it set the tone firmly.

Standing by the doorway, Fang Mu listened intently to the rest of the meeting. Elder Jiang’s plans for the Spirit-smithing Masters aligned perfectly with Fang Mu’s own vision.

The number of Spirit-smithing Masters under Elder Jiang’s command was growing, as was the demand for resources.

Fang Mu resolved to provide Elder Jiang with more support in terms of resources.

Supplying resources to these Spirit-smithing Masters shouldn’t be considered an expense—every resource invested in their hands would immediately yield significant returns.

After the meeting concluded, Elder Jiang did not leave the workshop immediately.

He had been under great pressure recently and had many things he wanted to clarify with Fang Mu.

However, Fang Mu’s busy schedule left no time for discussions.

But without these clarifications, Elder Jiang found it difficult to proceed with his work effectively.

At that moment, Elder Jiang saw Fang Mu enter the room.

Seeing this, Elder Jiang’s face lit up with joy, while Fang Mu, with an apologetic expression, addressed him.

"Elder Jiang, I’ve indeed been preoccupied with important matters lately and haven’t had the time to visit you. Please forgive me!"

Although Elder Jiang understood Fang Mu’s workload, he couldn’t help but feel a little neglected during this period of no contact.

He couldn’t shake off the impression that Fang Mu perhaps didn’t value him as much.

Now that Fang Mu was here, taking the time to express such words, it showed that he held Elder Jiang in high regard, which made Elder Jiang deeply pleased.

From the depths of his heart, Elder Jiang felt immense gratitude toward Fang Mu. Though he was working for Fang Mu, he no longer had to run around for Jiang Tuo’s sake and could instead focus on honing his skills as a Spirit Forger.

Elder Jiang could clearly feel his Spirit-smithing abilities improving significantly.

What mattered most to Elder Jiang was Jiang Tuo. As long as Fang Mu slightly nurtured Jiang Tuo, Elder Jiang would be content.

Yet Fang Mu had not only kept his promise by providing Jiang Tuo with Grandmaster-level and even Saint Creator-level resources, but he also cared for Jiang Tuo as an elder brother would.

Every week, Jiang Tuo would stay at Elder Jiang’s place for two days, and Elder Jiang could sense that Jiang Tuo was genuinely happy.

The gloom that had once clouded his brow was now completely gone.

Fang Mu’s care for Jiang Tuo made Elder Jiang view him as a benefactor. Otherwise, Elder Jiang wouldn’t have gone to such lengths for Fang Mu.

"Little Mu, working under Master Qixing must be no easy feat. With Master Qixing currently in seclusion, all matters inside and out must fall to you to coordinate."

With these words, Elder Jiang bowed deeply to Fang Mu, his tone exceedingly earnest.

"Little Mu, thank you for everything you’ve done for Jiang Tuo. As his grandfather, I deeply appreciate it."

"I will dedicate the rest of my life to repaying you!"

Elder Jiang hadn’t initially paid much attention to Jiang Tuo’s growth in strength, thinking that Jiang Tuo’s Destiny Guardian Beast had only just awakened and would need a year or two of accumulation to truly mature.

However, during Jiang Tuo’s last few visits, Elder Jiang was shocked to discover that Jiang Tuo had already bonded with four Ice Ghosts, all of which had reached the Platinum rank.

Such rapid progress startled Elder Jiang—this was growth he could never have facilitated himself!

Fang Mu stepped forward and helped Elder Jiang to his feet.

"Elder Jiang, I’ve told you before—I regard Little Tuo as both a brother and a teammate. With his innate talent and the resources I’ve provided, his future growth will undoubtedly be limitless!"

"Little Tuo’s potential is immense, Elder Jiang, so there’s no need for such formalities between us!"

"Now, tell me what it was you wanted to discuss. Later on, once I get busy again, you might not be able to find me."

Fang Mu was being serious when he said this—if he ventured to the Dimensional World, Elder Jiang wouldn’t be able to contact him at all.

Seeing someone so young already juggling so many responsibilities, Elder Jiang marveled at Fang Mu’s growth and abilities while also feeling a touch of concern for him.

"Little Mu, I currently have 264 Spirit-smithing Masters under my command. Among them, only two are Forging Spirit Grandmasters like myself."

"I recruited these two through unorthodox methods, and with the Covenant Servant Soul Ant Queen you provided, they are now fully under my control and entirely trustworthy."

"The remaining 37 Spirit Forging Masters have been divided into two teams, each reporting to one of these Grandmasters."

"As for the other 200 or so intermediate and advanced Spirit-smithing Masters, I am personally overseeing their training. Over 120 of them are capable of independently crafting Spirit Capturing Boxes, having mastered the necessary techniques."

"However, the quality of their Spirit Capturing Boxes varies."

"I plan to select 80 of them to specialize in Spirit Capturing Box production, while the others—those less skilled at crafting Spirit Capturing Boxes—will be assigned to crafting traditional spiritual instruments instead."

"You’ve mentioned that you need Spiritual Energy Fragments. Crafting traditional spiritual instruments not only produces a substantial amount of these fragments but also provides valuable training for the intermediate and advanced Spirit-smithing Masters."

"Though it doesn’t generate as much revenue as Spirit Capturing Boxes, at least it’s not a losing proposition."

Before joining Fang Mu, Elder Jiang had never affiliated himself with any organization. But he understood that for a force to truly thrive, one must look beyond immediate gains and adopt a long-term perspective.

Fang Mu pondered Elder Jiang’s arrangements thoughtfully and, after careful consideration, spoke to him solemnly.

"Elder Jiang, your plan looks excellent. Let’s proceed according to your layout!"

"We already agreed that the management of the Spirit-smithing Masters would be entrusted entirely to you. Any resources they require can be obtained from my second brother—he will ensure you have everything you need."

Elder Jiang felt a wave of relief upon hearing Fang Mu’s words. He had been worried that Fang Mu might have a completely different vision for the Spirit-smithing Masters.

If that had happened, Elder Jiang would undoubtedly have had to align his work with Fang Mu’s perspective.

However, Elder Jiang firmly believed that his current plan was the best course of action. Being forced to deviate from it would stifle the enthusiasm and meticulous care he had invested in his work.

"Little Mu, thank you for supporting my work. I will continue expanding the Spirit-smithing Master team."

Fang Mu smiled and, considering the upcoming development of the Dimensional World, responded to Elder Jiang with a tone of gravity.

"Elder Jiang, for now, stockpile all the spiritual instruments being crafted. We’ll wait for the right time to sell them."

This puzzled Elder Jiang. He didn’t understand why Fang Mu would make such a request. Crafting spiritual instruments consumed a significant amount of spiritual materials, and not selling them would place a heavy financial burden on their operations.

However, financial concerns didn’t fall under Elder Jiang’s purview. All the resources he required were supplied by Fang Yuan, and the financial stress was borne entirely by the Jianmu Commerce Association.

If Fang Mu made such a request, he must have a good reason.

"Little Mu, I’ll hand over all crafted spiritual instruments to Fang Yuan, who will categorize and store them accordingly."

"With nearly 200 people crafting spiritual instruments, the daily output is around 20 to 30 items."

"As for the Spiritual Energy Fragments produced weekly, I will have Little Tuo deliver them to you."

At this point, Elder Jiang shifted the topic.

"Little Mu, aside from confirming my development plan with you, I also wanted to discuss my ideas for custom Ghost Devices."

"Recently, Shui Miao, the Pavilion Master of the Twelve Pavilion, contacted me with a large supply of Ghost System Beast remains."

"You’ve mentioned your urgency in creating Ghost Devices before—now the necessary spiritual materials are basically all in place."

In the past, Fang Mu had indeed been eager to craft a Ghost Device of his own. But lately, that urgency had diminished.

Yan Yubanruo’s newly acquired skill, **Sacrifice the Body for Martial Arts**, allowed him to use his own body as a vessel, absorbing the spiritual materials for crafting Ghost Devices and the bloodline essence of the intended user.

Through consuming his own essence, along with the Souls of Death and Dead Qi as raw materials, Yan Yubanruo could forge a Ghost Device.

This technique enabled the user’s bloodline to perfectly integrate with the Ghost Device, maximizing the efficacy of these Ghost Type Spiritual Materials.
