Chapter 324: Chapter 282 World Conference (Vote for Monthly Ticket)

Fang You’s words had scarcely left his lips when Adams’s expression stiffened somewhat.

Firstly, he was annoyed that his elixir, was being belittled.

Secondly, was his true purpose actually laid bare with a single comment?

Indeed,

Adams had no desire to talk business with Torchfire; he had only recently taken control of eternal life technology and was enjoying the pleasurable life of the elite; he had no wish to concern himself with Dong Huang and Torchfire, thousands of kilometers away.

Nevertheless, the lady wanted it.

Upon learning that Dong Huang had withstood the Mysterious Evil tide, the lady repeatedly urged him that he must meet with Dong Huang and Torchfire.

So he had traveled a thousand miles to come here.

Adams’s face changed, but he eventually regained composure.

"Since the head of Torchfire wishes to meet her, I shall oblige."

With that, Adams drew a strand from his sleeve. The strand gradually unraveled, transforming into a bundle of scrolls, which then unfolded slowly in Adams’s hands, turning into a scroll? No, a mirror!

A magical mirror inscribed with intricate patterns and possessing tangible quality.

When the magical mirror was stood upright, a blurry figure of a graceful silhouette appeared within it.

"Good day, respected Madam."

Adams’s eyes were fixed intently on the mirror, almost unable to look away.

However, the blurry figure inside the mirror hardly paid him any attention, responding only with a faint "hmm" before turning to look at the figure in white robes sitting across from it.

She couldn’t help but let out a soft exclamation of surprise.

Then came a light chuckle that seemed to resonate with one’s heartstrings.

"Interesting, you seem to be no ordinary person."

"Madam flatters me."

Fang You’s gaze remained calm, yet reflected in his pupils was not just a blurry figure.

The lady had a waist slim as a serpent, eyes like peach blossoms, and was immensely enchanting. The low-cut neckline revealed the lady’s grandeur and righteousness.

As the view subsided, he merely nodded slightly as a gesture of greeting.

In the course of their brief exchange, Fang You learned that this lady came from the Wan She Association.

It was one of the known great Oasis powers, but compared to Sword Flower City, Wave City-States, and other great Oases, the Wan She Association was much more secretive, with very little information revealed.

To him, this Lady of Snakes was also no simple character.

She was certainly not merely an elite of the Oasis like Matissa and the others.

"Chairman Fang has yet to tell me which Oasis has achieved such great deeds. It’s hardly fair for me to reveal information while you remain silent~"

Her voice naturally carried a seductive tone, and Adams was ensnared by it, shooting Fang You an angry glare.

But Fang You himself remained unaffected.

He simply tapped the desktop lightly.

"What if I said there’s no Oasis backing us?"

"Chairman Fang really knows how to joke. To establish a Dawn District capable of dispersing the gray mist, and to withstand the assault of the super tide, one must be perhaps... the City of Fallen Stars."

"From Madam’s words, this City of Fallen Stars seems impressive. Could it be a super Oasis?"

Fang You’s words left the Lady of Snakes briefly startled.

He did not play by the rules.

Was he feigning ignorance? But looking into his eyes, it didn’t seem so. The Lady of Snakes didn’t believe anyone could act in front of her, and her mention of ’the City of Fallen Stars’ was just a probe; there were still many things she couldn’t understand.

At that moment, she saw a light shining forth from Fang You’s eyes.

The forge’s fire, the will as fast as lightning, seemed to illuminate the entire room.

The Lady of Snakes was surprised and pondered for a while.

"Adams, I want to talk to Chairman Fang alone."

"Madam..."

Adams, awakened from his reverie, his eyes filled with disbelief and reluctance.

But beholding the lady’s water-like eyes, he couldn’t voice a refusal, and his slight reluctance melted away in an instant.

"Yes, as you wish."

As he closed the door behind him, he still gave Fang You a fierce glare.

Click, the door closed.

A single man and a single mirror...

The person in the mirror studied the figure outside with surprise.

The person outside examined the figure in the mirror, calculating the deal.

Whether or not the Lady of Snakes believed his words was not important. What mattered was that after showing some strength, he could now negotiate with the Lady of Snakes on equal terms.

"I have no interest in doing business with eternal life technology, but I am very interested in doing business with the Wan She Association," he said.

"Business, you say..."

The Lady of Snakes toyed with her hair, full of charm, "Indeed, our Wan She Association has many unique products, but if you only represent Blue Star’s Torchfire, what precious items can you offer?"

She hadn’t been very interested at first.

Power and heritage are two different things.

Of course, she had to admit, the Blue Star warrior before her was quite appealing.

"Would you be interested in settling at our Wan She Association? I could reserve a place for you by my side," she suddenly said, the corners of her luscious lips curving into a slight smile.

But that was out of the question.

A temptress would only hinder my mastery of lightning magic.

"Perhaps Madam would like to see the special products of Torchfire first," he said.

From Heaven’s Net, he took out several treasure boxes, slid them forward, and opened them one by one.

Now, Torchfire, with plenty of ’basic level’ and ’common sense level’ intelligence on goods, was not lacking in this. In other words, the trade scale had been upgraded. Trying to exchange with some ordinary level delicacies was no longer sufficient.

Even last time, to buy the ’common sense level’ lantern blueprint, he had used a batch of improved second and third-tier crop seeds.

And blueprints, knowledge, intelligence, these were essentially cost-free ventures, ’common sense level’ were things all the great Oases had, so they weren’t too expensive.

But now, Fang You wanted to buy materials, rare commodities.

The price to pay would have to be much higher than before. Luckily, Torchfire was also beginning to have its own special products.

Though still not many.

Inside treasure box number one was a blue-grade improved seed.

Number two contained a blue-grade potion.

Number three held a Strange Implement.

Box four contained a small vial of Life Essence.

Artifact Number Five...

There were all types of objects within it, and Fang You was also testing to see which category the Wan She organization tended to produce and which category they needed more.

The result was that drops of life essence were the most favored.

As he took out the treasures, Fang You also inquired about some relics, including the Legendary Level Material ’Eternal Shine Stone,’ which he included among them.

"The Eye of Divinity, Divine Touch, Tears of Bright Light, Eternal Shine Stone..."

Muttering these material names, Lady of Snakes slightly narrowed her eyes.

These were things of legend.

Even just a name, within the Great Oasis, was considered a secret, known only to a select few at the top.

Yet this Torchfire Instructor rattled them off as if reading a grocery list.

His appetite was a bit large.

And moreover, does your Blue Star even have the ability to utilize objects of legend?

"The value of an object like the Eternal Shine Stone should be evident to President Fang, these items in front of you are far from sufficient, or... at least there should be enough drops of life essence."

"Then, what if it were an object that could extend lifespan and preserve youth? Madam, surely you wouldn’t want to see yourself aging."

Forty-five minutes later,

When Adams re-entered the reception room, what he saw was the Lady of Snakes and the Torchfire President chatting and laughing merrily.

"I’ll await the honor of President Fang’s hospitality when I reach Blue Star."

Wait a minute,

You’re an investor in my Eternal Science Technology, aren’t you, madam?

Adams was furious.

But Adams’s anger vanished in an instant beneath that gaze.

Everything was for the lady, after all.

...

"Good, another line has been opened with the Wan She organization."

"The line to the Scorched Flame Oasis is already in discussion, as is the line to the Blackstone Alliance, which was the earliest. We can’t afford to neglect it."

In a normal world, one would choose to cooperate with a single oasis.

One could only choose one.

Fang You, however, wanted as many as possible; after all, he wasn’t the spokesman for any oasis. They were in business together, aiming to make money and achieve win-win situations.

What he plotted for was treasure like the ’Eternal Shine Stone.’

There was still a shortage of over a dozen, and even though he had already established four lines, he felt it wasn’t nearly enough.

He wanted an age of great trade.

He needed more win-win partners.

"The construction of Blue Star’s defense circle cannot be delayed. Otherwise, by the time the Ghastly Realm has eroded more than half, breaking Blue Star apart, it will be too late to do anything about it."

"Moreover, with intensified erosion and weakened barriers, the acts of the Evil God’s minions will become increasingly unscrupulous."

"Luckily, it seems that the Lady of Snakes has the ’Eternal Shine Stone.’ As for the treasure to use in trade..."

He chose the longevity fruit!

The fruit borne by Yiduola’s Tree of Life, extremely valuable, and he believed it would be enough to lure the strong of the Great Oasis.

If all else failed, he could also offer treasures like the ’Water of Origin.’

For the strong of the Great Oasis struggling through Awakening calamities, the Water of Origin was even more tempting. Those with high potential not only acc**ulated mysteries faster but were also more likely to dispel the corruption that accompanied the mysteries.

However, the ’Water of Origin’ was also valuable to Torchfire, a treasure that could enhance strength.

As for such a treasure, Fang You would not trade it unless absolutely necessary.

...

...

Across the ocean, in District Fifty-One.

"How is the buildup to the World Meeting going?"

The leader in the black leather jacket asked.

The assistant replied, "The buildup is going very well, nations like Sunset Country and Wavemist Nation have responded to us and are very supportive of holding the meeting to discuss the future direction of the world."

"However, there has been a slight unexpected development."

"Unexpected?" the leader raised an eyebrow. "Dong Huang is not supportive?"

"No, Dong Huang is not against the World Meeting, but they insist on hosting it in Dong Huang."

Past World Meetings were mostly held in neutral countries.

Of course, after the Tide of Gray Mist, there aren’t many neutral countries left, and even those few cities that can barely maintain order don’t have the power to host the meeting.

Now, only a few major countries were qualified to do so.

The leader in the black leather jacket naturally wanted to host the event in their homeland of the White-headed Eagle.

However,

"Sunset Country, Wavemist Nation, White Bear Country, they all lean towards holding it in Dong Huang, at the Shui Ze Base City."

The assistant reported accordingly.

The lead in the black leather jacket fell silent.

So be it. Shui Ze Base City, after all, was in the Dawn District, with all sorts of magical places. Countries like Sunset and Wavemist were probably looking to take this opportunity to probe the secrets of Shui Ze Base City.

After a moment of silence, he said, "... it’s not unfeasible."

He paused, then continued, "Which strong powers are emerging around the world now, and which are suitable to woo?"

The assistant listed them one by one.

After the Tide of Gray Mist descended, the world changed rapidly. Many small and even medium-sized countries perished, but many organizations and forces rose prominently.

It was no longer an era of nation against nation.

At the World Meeting, world-class powers like Torchfire Town, Eternal Science Technology, and the Truth Association would certainly have a place.

"Recently, there has been a major development in Sakura Country."

"The former strongest in Sakura Country, ’Ito Kensaint,’ was slain by an opponent in a public challenge, and the number one power of Sakura Country, Zaixin Palace, has been taken over."

At this point, even the lead in the black leather jacket showed a hint of concern.

"If I remember correctly, that Ito Kensaint was a three-Awakening strong man, and a master of swordsmanship."

"Correct, and the one who killed Ito Kensaint was also a swordsmanship master, very young but with sword skills that can be called Peak Mastery, overpowering Ito Kensaint and taking the title of the strongest in Sakura Country."

"She has been recognized with the title — Sakura Sword Saint."

"It is said that when her sword sings, cherry blossoms fall, and when the cherry blossoms touch the ground, no one can survive her blade. She is an astonishing genius in the way of the sword — no, a monster in swordsmanship!"

The assistant spoke with admiration, "Our intelligence agents in Sakura Country have uncovered the true identity of this ’Sakura Sword Saint.’ Born into the swordsmanship family, the Moon Peninsula Family, which was destroyed in the Mysterious Evil calamity, but Mazeaki Maika has returned from hell with awe-inspiring power and now controls the strongest force in Sakura Country."

"I believe we can woo this Sakura Sword Saint."

"During the World Meeting."
