Chapter 1091: Chapter 522: He Wen’s Submission!
Wang Xu rubbed the potion bottles inside the brocade box with his hand, his gaze fixed on He Wen.
He was always ready to summon the Senyue Angel to strike at He Wen.
He Wen pondered for a long while then suddenly raised her head to look at Wang Xu, asking with an extremely serious tone.
“Old Wang, I know what you mean, and I understand your thoughts.”
“I’m willing to have the He family line stand behind you.”
“It’s just that I don’t know what kind of benefits you can promise to my He family line!?”
“I’m using the life and death of the He family as a stake in this big gamble; there must be a future as a guide!”
He Wen had made this decision with great determination and was aware that it was her only option.
But when it came time to make the decision, He Wen had to seek benefits for the He family.
If He Wen did not do so, she would not deserve to be the head of the He family line!
Upon hearing this, a smile appeared on Wang Xu’s face.
Wang Xu had no intention of trying to craft an image of a superior in front of He Wen.
Wang Xu was not even a superior; the young man named Yan Luo was.
When He Wen met Yan Luo later, she would know everything.
“I will indeed lead your He family line in the future, including you, the Great Archangel,” he said.
“However, the person who will give you benefits is not I, but the Great One behind us!”
“That Great One will provide resources for your He family line.”
“When you see that Great One later, you must perform well.”
No sooner had Wang Xu finished speaking than he received a message from Fang Mu.
Wang Xu hurriedly took He Wen to the Mountain Manor.
In the past few days, Wang Xu had purposely inquired about the situation of this Mountain Manor.
He learned that the master of the Mountain Manor was named Fang Mu, a disciple of the Grandmaster Creator.
This involuntarily led Wang Xu to overlap the identities of Fang Mu and Yan Luo in his mind.
Yan Luo was also a young man of tender years.
Because Yan Luo had always worn a mask during their previous encounters.
Wang Xu could not be sure of Yan Luo’s actual age.
Without stepping into the Order, Wang Xu could not directly ascertain a person’s bone age.
Fang Mu had arranged to meet with Wang Xu and He Wen at the Mountain Manor, but Fang Mu did not want outsiders to know Jianmu was Yan Luo and Yan Luo was Jianmu.
When She Wan brought Wang Xu and He Wen into the parlor, they saw two young men sitting at the table.
One of them wore an outfit of blue and white, carrying a strong sense of affability.
The other young man was dressed in black, with a mask covering his face.
He exuded an aura of coldness that seemed to ward off strangers.
Wang Xu recognized the masked man as Yan Luo at first glance.
The other young man was most likely Fang Mu, the disciple of the Grandmaster Creator Qixing!
Wang Xu had not expected Yan Luo to have a private connection with Fang Mu, and it seemed they were quite close.
When the affable-looking young man saw the two guests, he immediately stood up and said to Yan Luo.
“Brother Yan, your guests have arrived, I’ll leave the parlor to you!”
“Let’s talk about our collaboration later in the evening.”
After saying this, the affable young man left the room.
Jianmu and Yan Luo were both identities of Fang Mu, and Fang Mu did not have the ability to clone himself.
The reason for the current situation was that Fang Mu had Liu Xi reconstitute a cadaver’s face to mimic his own.
This puppet was named Liu San and at times deliberately replaced Fang Mu’s identity as “Jianmu” to do certain things.
After Jianmu left, He Wen was thinking about how to communicate with the young man in front of her.
Being an older generation powerhouse, He Wen felt somewhat compelled to uphold her status in front of the young man.
Before He Wen could ponder further, Wang Xu beside her suddenly dropped to his knees.
He knelt before the young man.
“Master, I didn’t expect that fetching the Sleep Moss would take such a long time.”
“I hope you will not blame me!”
“This is another Great Archangel from our Truth Hall, He Wen, the one I mentioned to you who can cure Nightmare Level curses!”
It was not Wang Xu’s first time kneeling before Yan Luo.
The first time he knelt before a junior not much older than his own grandson, Wang Xu felt a lot of pressure.
But after doing so, Wang Xu accepted the act.
Demonstrating absolute submission to Yan Luo could bring Wang Xu great benefits.
Today, he had brought He Wen before Yan Luo; to He Wen, he was the one who introduced her.
To Yan Luo, however, both he and He Wen were subordinates, tools for controlling the Truth Hall.
Their relationship was one of pure competition.
The more submissive the behavior, the more Yan Luo would value and use him.
Fang Mu snorted coldly upon hearing this.
“It did indeed take a long time; do not make promises you can’t keep next time!”
“Do you understand?”
Those last four words, “do you understand?” were heavily stressed by Fang Mu, as if reprimanding Wang Xu.
Fang Mu was not upset by Wang Xu’s lack of punctuality.
Wang Xu’s delay in acquiring the Sequential Rank Sleep Moss had no impact on Fang Mu.
What Fang Mu was dissatisfied with was that if Wang Xu continued to make wrong judgments in the face of important matters and still affirmed to him.
It could potentially delay Fang Mu’s plans and lead to a series of losses!
Fang Mu believed that this reminder would be sufficient for Wang Xu to learn his lesson.
If, having been reminded, Wang Xu still showed no improvement.
Then Fang Mu could simply replace Wang Xu and no longer have him manage the Truth Hall.
