Chapter 433: Chapter 238: Branches of the Osmanthus Tree! _3
The woman, dressed in a moon robe, was standing at an angle that obscured her features.
Yet, her silhouette hinted at the extraordinary spirit within her.
Even the aura emanating from her back was so extraordinary that it made one hesitant to disrespect her, no matter how beautiful she was.
When Fang Mu had previously ascended to elite quality in Foolâs Shadow, he had witnessed the same scene.
At that time, Fang Mu thought he was experiencing a hallucination.
Experiencing such illusions after intense pain was quite normal.
So Fang Mu didnât pay much heed to it.
However, this time when Foolâs Shadowâs quality increased, Fang Mu again saw the same scene.
And what he observed this time was even clearer than before, clearly pointing to the fact that the figure on the bright moon was not an illusion.
After watching this scene for an unknown period of time, Fang Mu suddenly came up with an astounding thought.
The two osmanthus trees on the moon, with silver stamen and golden petals, strangely matched with the name of the evolved Bright Moon Golden Osmanthus â Silver Chrysosplenium Stamen Cassia.
Could there be any connection between these?
Upon closer inspection, Fang Mu noticed that one of the larger osmanthus trees was missing a branch on the left side.
However, just as he squinted to see more clearly, he was suddenly pulled back from that mental state.
When Fang Mu tried to raise his eyes and gaze far again, he found the moon to be completely empty.
No matter how closely he looked, he couldnât see the two osmanthus trees, the figure under the osmanthus tree, or the baby in her arms again.
Fang Mu reckoned that an average person wouldnât see such a spectacle when looking at the moon.
If everyone could see it, scholars would have long been conducting research on this phenomenon.
Fang Mu dismissed all the speculations from his mind.
He felt that the next time heâd see this scene would probably be once Foolâs Shadow ascended to the epic quality.
He wondered, would he be able to observe more clearly next time and at least see the womanâs face under the osmanthus tree?
Fang Mu summoned Suck Suck in his room to hear it âsucking and sippingâ on the tentacle of the Withering Cold Tyrant Octopus.
Fang Mu began to examine books about osmanthus plant Guardian Beasts.
Some of these books were obtained by Fang Mu from Scavenger, while others were procured from the Creatorâs Guild via his connection with Lv Yuyu.
These books circulated within the eight major organizations of the Dragon Rising Federation and were compiled by the organizations themselves with similar contents.
After flipping through the books on osmanthus Guardian Beasts, Fang Mu found that there was no mention of Silver Chrysosplenium Stamen Cassia, let alone the Bright Moon Golden Osmanthus.
Seeing this, Fang Mu picked up his phone and placed a call to She Wan.
The phone barely rang a few times before She Wan picked it up.
âYoung Master, what can I do for you?â
âI have almost everything ready here. Xiao Yin truly commands as a housekeeper better than I ever could!â
After meeting Lu Xiaoyin today, She Wan had seen through the worry and anxiety in Lu Xiaoyinâs heart.
Lu Xiaoyin was currently by She Wanâs side.
When She Wan praised Lu Xiaoyin to Fang Mu, she genuinely acknowledged Lu Xiaoyinâs abilities.
On the other hand, she also wanted to win Lu Xiaoyinâs favor and earn a favor in return.
Lu Xiaoyin had first become Fang Muâs personal housekeeper, and then she had become Fang Muâs guard.
So far, She Wan and Lu Xiaoyin had always gotten along harmoniously without any discord.
She couldnât help but worry about how she would get along with the new housekeeper if someone were to replace Lu Xiaoyin as Fang Muâs personal housekeeper.
The personal housekeeper can manage the guards, and if the new housekeeper were to smear her in an attempt to win Fang Muâs favor,
Her relationship with Fang Mu could become strained.
Her duty was to guard, and the fact that she lacks ability as a housekeeper compared to Lu Xiaoyin wasnât a disadvantage.
Fang Mu wouldnât hold this against her.
When he heard what She Wan said, Fang Mu raised an eyebrow, and with a glance, he understood why She Wan said what she did.
Fang Mu replied with a smile,
âSister Wan, thank you for your hard work today and tomorrow! Iâd like you to inquire about the origin of the Bright Moon Golden Osmanthus I have!â
âTell Lu to prepare things for setting up the Abdominal Territory Worm and Mechanism Fortress soon. He should also remember to get himself a hard bed when arranging the inside of the Abdominal Territory Worm because he has back problems!â
She Wan was momentarily stunned when she heard Fang Muâs words. She had only tried to flatter Lu Xiaoyin.
She didnât care whether Fang Mu could understand the deeper meaning behind her words.
But to her surprise, Fang Mu not only understood her implications but also immediately chose to reassure Lu Xiaoyinâs worries.
She was momentarily surprised as her understanding of Fang Mu broadened further.
Before, she simply didnât treat Fang Mu like a child. But now, she felt that she should view Fang Mu as a cunning old fox.
She felt that if any force thought of Fang Mu as just a young boy and tried to take advantage of him at the transaction meeting tomorrow evening,
They would surely miscalculate!
âMaster, Iâll ask my grandfather about the Bright Moon Golden Osmanthus right away. Iâve never seen it at the She family before!â
âIt must be one of my grandfatherâs personal collections from his younger years.â
âLu must be thrilled to know that you care so much about him!â
After hanging up the phone, She Wan relayed Fang Muâs words to Lu Xiaoyin without omitting a single word.
Fang Muâs words meant that during his expedition, Lu Xiaoyin could accompany him.
This assuaged the biggest worry in Lu Xiaoyinâs heart.
Lu Xiaoyin was overjoyed to hear this.
After noting down the task given by Fang Mu, Lu Xiaoyin planned to personally thank Fang Mu early tomorrow morning.
Only then could he express his heartful thanks and honor for Fang Mu.
Since it was a question from Fang Mu, She Wan didnât hesitate despite it being already late into the night.
Her grandfather, being much older, would go to bed right after nightfall.
He lived a life from sunrise to sunset.
If she were to call now, she would undoubtedly wake him up.
However, even if her grandfather was in a bad mood, when faced with Fang Muâs question, he would surely answer earnestly.
