Crazy! Are You Really A Beast Tamer?

Lian Dai spoke with utmost seriousness, her tone indeed carrying a request for assistance.

Dignity aside, she was willing to make concessions when it came to the advancement of her bloodline.

From the moment Lian Dai had thought to ask Master Qixing for help in raising her Creator star level, she knew she would always be at a disadvantage in her dealings with him.

Creators among humans always liked to have control over affairs, and if Master Qixing were to assist her in elevating her bloodline, she would have to pay a hefty price beyond these external offerings.

Lian Dai was pleading to Fang Mu in hopes that he would convey her stance verbatim to Master Qixing, thus facilitating her chance to attain a bloodline elevation.

Under normal circumstances, every transaction and collaboration involved strategic interplay, but there really wasn't much point in playing such games between Lian Dai and Master Qixing.

Whether it was the turbulent tide that had rushed into the Sea of Domains or her own bloodline advancement, it was she and the Han Yang Empire that sought Master Qixing's aid, not the other way around.

Upon hearing Lian Dai's words, Fang Mu still did not accept the Ocean Spirit Marrow but stubbornly said,

"Senior Lian Dai, the favor you seek might not be within my capacity to help, and it wouldn't be appropriate for me to accept your gift if I can't assist!"

"First tell me what it is you need help with, and if I'm certain I can do it, then I will accept the Ocean Spirit Marrow!"

Fang Mu's response assured Lian Dai that he was unaware of her true purpose in seeking Master Qixing and also revealed to her his commitment and principles.

Such a little fellow was truly endearing!

"It's like this, I wish to request Master Qixing to examine my bloodline to see if he could help it advance further!"

"If it is possible, Master Qixing can make any demand."

"I will not hesitate to comply with whatever Master Qixing requests, as long as it is within my power!"

Fang Mu blinked at her words.

Through what Lian Dai had said, Fang Mu understood just how desperate she was for a bloodline enhancement.

Assisting Lian Dai with her bloodline would indeed allow Fang Mu to have leverage over her, but he had no intention of doing so.

Whether it was a God-Realm expert or the king of a Sea Country, respect was due.

"Senior Lian Dai, I will relay your exact words to my master."

"I will accept this Ocean Spirit Marrow, but I cannot guarantee what my master's reaction will be."

"I will notify you as soon as I receive a reply from my master!"

Lian Dai smiled at this.

She did not insist on gaining a bloodline advancement through Master Qixing alone; her bloodline was far stronger than that of the mermaid stripped of its scales.

Lian Dai's earnest request to Master Qixing was merely to ascertain the possibility of promotion.

Since she could not meet Master Qixing in person to have him assess her condition directly, Lian Dai simply pulled a bright pink scale from her fish tail.

She handed her scale to Fang Mu.

"If Master Qixing is willing to help me elevate my bloodline, please give him this scale."

"Master Qixing will understand my condition better!"

"If Master Qixing declines my request, then let this scale be a gift to him!"

Having said her piece, Lian Dai did not linger any longer with Fang Mu.

As the king of the Han Yang Empire, Lian Dai had many matters to attend to; the other three Sea Countries and the Sea Lord needed to communicate with King Lian Dai after receiving the news from the Han Yang Empire to grasp the specifics of the human situation.

Since the disaster had not occurred in the domains of the other three Sea Countries and the Sea Lord, they who were not eyewitnesses to this catastrophe had little interest in collaborating with the Contract Garden.

It was up to Lian Dai to mediate these affairs.

Fang Mu, holding Lian Dai's scale, could feel an immense life energy emanating from it.

This power was of an incredibly high level; Fang Mu could sense through the Lifelong Beasmaster's Blood of Abundance, which he used to brew the Blood Aged Wine, whether the Blood Aged Wine could affect other life forms.

Fang Mu was convinced that the Blood of Abundance would be highly effective for Lian Dai!

Now, Fang Mu needed to consider how he would proceed in helping Lian Dai advance her bloodline should he agree to do so in his capacity as Master Qixing.

On one hand, Lian Dai's bloodline improvement would inevitably lead to a breakthrough in strength, and Fang Mu needed to impose restrictions to ensure that Lian Dai wouldn't endanger humans once she became more powerful.

On the other hand, Fang Mu wanted to leverage Lian Dai's strength for a future transaction, for which he needed a clear plan.

After storing away Lian Dai's scale, Fang Mu contacted Zhuang Herui of the Ten-thousand Nations Federation, who was responsible for the handover of the Extraterrestrial Embryos, and informed him of his negotiations with the Sea Clan.

Fang Mu, now setting his sights on other Dimensional Worlds, dispensed with the idea of competing with Han Ming.

Informing Han Ming of these developments through Zhuang Herui was a gesture of goodwill.

Han Ming had many schemes, but when it came to major issues, he was a man of clear understanding, and the Ten-thousand Nations Federation was indeed the group most accountable for the cost of this tide.

Of course, the main reason Fang Mu chose to inform Han Ming was to spare himself the time and effort in future dealings.

Fang Mu held the key to cleansing the Extraterrestrial Embryos and was the linchpin in the collaboration between the Sea Clan and the Contract Garden.
