Chapter 278: 186 Are You Taking Me for a Fool!?_3
“Being a side branches member with so many cunning hearts, you will be dealt with!”
Yi Shuzhou is headstrong, but not stupid.
In Yi Family, side branches have to address Yi Han as Master Yi Han.
But the direct line members of Yi Family can call Yi Han their elder uncle.
Being one of the most central figures among the younger generation in the direct line of the Yi Family, Yi Shuzhou knows better about the Yi Family’s attitude towards Jianmu.
If Yi Shixuan encouraged him to be on good terms with Jianmu, Yi Shuzhou would appreciate Yi Shixuan more and consider him one of his own.
Now, Yi Shixuan’s words, whether intentional or not, are harmful to him.
If he really did that, not to mention his uncle Yi Han, even his father, Yi Feng, would not let him off!
Yi Shuzhou, ignoring the embarrassment of Yi Shixuan beside him, took the lead in saluting Yi Han when he came over.
Then he walked quickly to Fang Mu’s side and said with a smile.
“Jianmu, my name is Yi Shuzhou.”
“I’ve watched your duels on the Battle Network twice, I’m a fan!”
“It’s an honor to meet you today!”
Yi Shuzhou did not presume to shake hands with Fang Mu, but stood there rubbing his hands in a restrained manner.
It really gave off the vibe of a fan meeting a superstar.
Fang Mu raised an eyebrow seeing this.
Indeed, he had encountered live broadcasters in his duels on the Battle Network, and videos had been posted there.
But they had quickly disappeared.
Fang Yuan had mentioned this situation to him.
Fang Mu immediately guessed that it must have been taken care of by the Scavengers.
Among all the official organizations in the Dragon Rising Federation, Fang Mu had only joined one – the Scavengers.
It wasn’t impossible for Yi Shuzhou to have seen his fight footage, but the chance was extremely slim.
Moreover, even if he had seen it, given his status as a young member of the Yi Family, he would never have been so courteous to him.
He had snatched opportunities from the younger generation of the Yi Family, and Yi Shuzhou was likely among them.
So this Yi Shuzhou was probably an actor, and a very skillful one at that.
When Yi Han saw Yi Shuzhou come forward, his brow furrowed slightly.
But when he heard what Yi Shuzhou said to Fang Mu, Yi Han’s brow relaxed.
Yi Han had always focused on the pursuit of Creator strength, never marrying.
Nor had he left behind any offspring like his peers in the Yi Family.
Therefore, he had always been impartial to the younger generation of the Yi Family.
Yi Han had previously not had a good impression of Yi Shuzhou, disliking those who are assertive and domineering among the younger generation.
But now it seems that Yi Shuzhou is indeed clever, and has applied his cleverness appropriately.
“Shuzhou, anything you need to say we’ll discuss later.”
“Let me take Jianmu to choose a guardian beast first.”
Having finished speaking to Yi Shuzhou, Yi Han turned to Fang Mu and said,
“Shuzhou is a good lad from our Yi Family. If you feel that you get along well with Shuzhou,”
“You can spend more time with him when you visit the Capital in the future.”
“It will be more comfortable for you young people to hang out together than with someone of advanced age like me!”
Hearing this, Fang Mu smiled and said to Yi Shuzhou,
“If we hit it off the first time we meet, how about we connect on QV?”
Yi Han had always given him due respect, regardless of the reason. Hence, Fang Mu must also do the same for Yi Han!
Yi Han was introducing him to Yi Shuzhou, not expressing his appreciation might embarrass Yi Han in front of the younger generation of the Yi Family.
Fang Mu did not intend to offend Yi Han for no reason, and discussing things directly with Yi Han wasn’t as convenient as having Yi Shuzhou act as an intermediary.
No matter how many transactions were made, Yi Han could not protect his interests from the perspective of the Yi Family.
But Yi Shuzhou was different.
If Yi Shuzhou befriended him and became a channel between the Yi Family and him, and if his status in the Yi Family was elevated afterwards,
He would proactively protect his interests to consolidate his position in the Yi Family.
This was what Fang Mu wanted.
Currently, Fang Mu had a small group on QV, which only had four members – Lu Yuyu, Lin Ziyuan, Luo Su and Fang Mu.
Fang Mu could completely add Yi Shuzhou to this group.
So as to contribute to building the group’s network and elevate the prestige of the discussion group.
Yi Shuzhou had initially put on a show for Yi Han’s benefit, but he didn’t expect Jianmu to give him such face!
Seeing Yi Han looking at him approvingly, Yi Shuzhou quickly added Fang Mu on QV in an extremely friendly manner.
There were very few opportunities for the younger generation of the Yi Family to show off.
A lot of direct line members of the Yi Family felt complicated.
They didn’t expect Yi Shuzhou, who used to make loud claims, to behave in such a way towards Jianmu!
But no one dared to tell Jianmu about this.
Once they told him and disrupt the unity between Jianmu and Yi Shuzhou,
It would be equivalent to losing a route for the Yi Family to connect with Jianmu.
Just now, Yi Han had mentioned he was in a hurry to help Jianmu choose a guardian beast.
Approaching Jianmu to greet him at this time would not be a considerate thing, but a hindrance.
When he approached the bird niche in the Martial Arts Arena with Yi Han, Fang Mu was immediately dazzled by the crane beasts.
Among bird-type controlled creatures, crane beasts are very rare.
The Yi Family had so many top-tier stocks of such rare crane beasts.
Compared to top-level forces like the Yi Family, he as a high-end Creator had an endless source of resources, but other resource chains hadn’t been established yet.
The reserves of the Yi Family gave Fang Mu a glimpse into the future development direction of the Jianmu Commerce Association.
The profound patterns Yan Wood has understood till now are all of the fire attribute, and the Vermilion Sun Crane is also a fire attribute beast.
Unlike him, with the Contracting Blood that allows unlimited beast contracting, the best path for Yan Wood is to fix the attribute of the controlling beast like Fang Qin, to ensure that the profound patterns she has grasped can match any beast in a battle.
Among these more than forty crane beasts, there were only three fire series crane beasts.
These three fire series crane beasts also belong to the same species as if they were triplets.
But since Fang Mu was choosing a beast for Yan Wood, he was diligent in using the Eye of Knowledge.
Upon an inspection, Fang Mu was surprised to find that these three identically looking fire series crane beasts could undergo the rarest variation among the three major variations of guardian beasts!
