Chapter 453 Changed Status

"Then alright. Seems like the relation between us and Young Master Li will become much deeper. Be at ease, the person trying to find you will soon be dealt with by us. With that, Young Master Li's secret will continue remaining a secret."

An nodded, then continued speaking. "As for business, we won't treat Young Master Li unfairly. For instance, we will purchase the power grains at the same price as your previous traders. What do you think?"

"Many thanks."

Li Yunmu was slightly surprised, but he still nodded and agreed.

He had mentally prepared to have a slice of meat cut off, but given the system's research on flux binding pill, he wasn't too concerned about the temporary loss.

He hadn't expected that the other party would surprisingly not ask him to make a loss. After hearing it, he couldn't help but admire, the work methods of the woman in front of his eyes. She had actually found and suggested a win-win initiative while being in absolute advantage over Li Yunmu.

He couldn't help but look her in a new light. He had already found that she had never cultivated, but how did she posses so much authority in Underworld Serpent?

It could be guessed with ease that the position of the other party in Underworld Serpent wasn't low. After all, An could represent the entire Whale City in negotiation with Li Yunmu.

Since both parties had formally established collaboration, they could talk about further details with a lot of ease.

They talked about the particulars at the top floor of the restaurant for quite a while, then said their farewells. Within this business exchange, Li Yunmu had received unexpected gains.

In fact, he had obtained great benefits, on the contrary to his current circ.u.mstances. Not only was he not forced to reduce the price of his extreme grade power grains, he had even obtained the backing of a powerhouse which could provide him asylum against his enemies. He was also provided with a gold status tile of Underworld Serpent.

According to the data collected by the system, Underworld Serpent divided their clients into five cla.s.ses based on their worth. This cla.s.sification was as follows—iron, silver, gold, platinum, and black gold. Altogether, there were five status cla.s.ses.

The different cla.s.ses were provided with different treatments. Since Li Yunmu's previous business hadn't been finished, he hadn't been provided with any status tile. But now he was given the gold cla.s.s tile which might not be the highest cla.s.s, but still provided many benefits.

The best one was that every month Li Yunmu had the authority to invite three golden serpents of Underworld Serpent to a.s.sist him in settling a problem. This was free of charge, and he could choose the three by himself.

As for the strength of golden serpents, then after comparison with the five types of ident.i.ty tiles, they should have the strength of great flux experts at least.

Every month, Li Yunmu could use this benefit once and call three great flux experts to settle any problem. Just based on this one point, he had made a great profit from his deal.

Naturally, this benefit could be invoked at the most dangerous time. Ordinary conflicts or tasks like using them for hired thugs wouldn't be in the scope of this agreement.

As for the demerit of this collaboration?

Naturally, the demerit was equally large. The entire stock of Li Yunmu's extreme grade power grains was under the control of Underground Serpent. In other words, it was an extremely powerful leverage against him.

If Li Yunmu didn't cooperate with the organization, it wouldn't even need to make any move by itself. It could simply publicize in that he could refine power grain and let even more terrifying powers of the world to hunt him down.

"Oh, since my status has changed and I have become a partner of this branch of Underworld Serpent, I can stay on Whale Island for as long as I want. I don't need to worry about Blue Moon Island's sneak attacks here."

Li Yunmu went inside a herb store and bought another batch of herbs to refine them according to Meridian Nurturing Flux Point Technique.

It was a body nurturing cultivation method from ancient times to which Li Yunmu attached great importance . Although he had already complemented the deficiency of his flux points, he hadn't stopped soaking his body in the medicinal liquid.

[Yes, host should stay at Whale Island. With the branch of Underground Serpent here, even if that elder of Blue Moon Sect is filled with enormous hatred, Blue Moon Sect won't dare to provoke Underground Serpent,] the system replied after a.n.a.lyzing everything.

This was the rule as well as the path of existence in the Origin World. With his own strength, Li Yunmu would be annihilated by a single elder of Blue Moon Sect, or even a group of great flux experts sent to hunt him down.

But when a third rate sect like Blue Moon Sect encountered a first rate organization, they could only swallow their anger and return without doing anything to him.

This was a privilege which came from power and influence. Within the complicated situation of the Origin World, this sort of thing happened all the time.

Most often, a core disciple of first rate power would be more domineering and unbridaled then the sect leader of a third rate sect.

And one couldn't do anything to him, because if someone attacked them, that would be equivalent to inviting the first rate power to exterminate one's entire family.

In this world, anyone without strength needed to be conscious of their own powerlessness and be ready to bow down and submit when the situation demanded. This was the only way to survive. Almost every powerhouse had obtained its strength by following this principle and tempering their willpower as well as tenaciousness.

Since all the troubles had been settled, Li Yunmu finally had a moment of peace.

While staying at the tavern on Whale Island, Li Yunmu deliberately didn't conceal his whereabouts. Finally, on the third day, Blue Moon Sect's third wave of hunters made discreet enquiries about him to track him down.

Although they couldn't attack him on the island under a neutral power, they could continue tracking him down in secret. After all, their a.s.signment was to hunt down the traitors of the sect.

The power behind Whale Island only observed everything with one eye closed. As long as the two parties didn't make too much fuss or destroy their city, Whale City wouldn't interfere.

After that third day, Li Yunmu remained unaffected. As for the group of hunters sent by Blue Moon Island, they could only return gloomily.

During the day, Li Yunmu hadn't done anything, but the hunters from Blue Moon Sect had discovered something.

The reason behind the quick conclusion to the was that a member of Underworld Serpent had suddenly appeared in front of them and said two short sentences. They were: "Li Yunmu is currently a partner of our Underworld Serpent. Please leave."

Just those few words were enough to make them retreat. This time, the mid stage great flux expert had caused the hunters of Blue Moon Island to return unconditionally, without daring to say anything.
