Chapter 1132: 542
âWhat do you think of my proposal?â
Ning Hongshu addressed Fang Mu in such a manner because she had a request for him.
Yet this young man, Fang Mu, not only did not agree immediately, but also behaved with exceptional politeness.
In his words, he conveyed respect for Ning Hongshu.
This had nothing to do with social status or background, but was a reflection of Fang Muâs personal cultivation, a quality that guided his actions.
Both Ning Hongshu and Jun Feng found themselves holding Fang Mu in higher esteem.
It made sense that this youth, not yet twenty, was favored by Master Qixing, the mysterious Saint Creator!
Upon hearing Fang Muâs invitation, a joy she couldnât quite articulate surged within Ning Hongshuâs heart.
Master Qixing was aware of her needs and difficulties.
The fact that he had extended an invitation despite this indicated that Master Qixing was prepared to help Jun Feng remove the pollutant from his body.
âLittle Wood, since youâve put it that way, I wonât stand on ceremony.â
âI would be very willing to join Master Qixingâs ranks!â
âI can work for Master Qixing from now on and fully cooperate with all his actions.â
âBut I hope Master Qixing can do me a favor.â
Ignoring his own physical condition, Jun Feng tightly grasped Ning Hongshuâs hand as she spoke.
âHongshu, my lifespan is about to come to an end; you need to think more for yourself!â
âOtherwise, how can I depart in peace?â
Tears welled up in Ning Hongshuâs eyes as she heard Jun Fengâs words.
She did not pull away from Jun Fengâs grasp, nor did she choose to heed his advice.
Ning Hongshu had considered leaving with Jun Feng.
To spend the rest of her life remembering a deeply loved person was torture for Ning Hongshu.
She didnât want to endure this sadness alone.
Even if it meant extending Jun Fengâs life by only one more year, Ning Hongshu was willing to spend the rest of her life fighting for it.
Fang Mu hadnât expected to encounter such depth of feeling in the Beastmaster world.
Fang Mu had already intended to extend Jun Fengâs lifespan.
He valued Jun Fengâs strength and wanted to bring him into his service.
Now, seeing this pair of lovers, who had each otherâs company for half a lifetime, Fang Mu was willing to fulfill this love.
âWho says one must die when their lifespan comes to an end?â
âWouldnât they be able to continue living as long as their lifespan is extended?â
If someone else had said these words in front of Ning Hongshu and Jun Feng, they would have seen it as a provocation, regardless of whether it was Ning Hongshu or Jun Feng.
In this world, itâs a fundamental law â when oneâs lifespan ends, they die.
However, when these words came from Fang Muâs mouth, Jun Feng and Ning Hongshu couldnât help but give them more thought!
Through just a few sentences, Jun Feng and Ning Hongshu had come to understand Fang Muâs character.
A polite and steady person wouldnât speak such emotionally unintelligent words.
Could it be that Master Qixing has a way to replenish lifespan and is willing to use it on Jun Feng?
Otherwise, Fang Mu wouldnât reveal the depth of Master Qixingâs capabilities.
âLittle Wood, are you saying that by pledging loyalty to Master Qixing, he could restore my husbandâs lifespan?â
To prevent Jun Feng from speaking, Fang Mu quickly added,
âIndeed, after removing the pollutant from Uncle Fengâs body, I can immediately restore a hundred years of his lifespan!â
âBut Aunt Ning, the master seeks not only your loyalty but also Uncle Fengâs!â
âIâve said everything that needs to be said; itâs not suitable for you two to have a prolonged discussion in your current state.â
âI can wait here for one day, allowing you both to make your own decision.â
After these words, Fang Mu raised his hand, and an octagonal table with four chairs appeared in the cave.
Fang Mu then leisurely began to brew a pot of Mist Frost Tea.
He first filled a cup for Shu Liangjun, then poured one for both Ning Hongshu and Jun Feng.
âAunt Ning, Uncle Feng, please sit down and have a cup of tea, and experience the taste of the Dragon Rising Federationâs specialty tea leaves!â
Fang Mu was certain that Ning Hongshu and Jun Feng would agree to his terms.
Compared to a Saint Creator, even a Peak Order Practitioner didnât seem as impressive.
Ning Hongshu surely wanted to stay by Jun Fengâs side forever.
An Order peak level strongman would definitely wish to be able to carry on living, if at all possible.
The stronger the person, the more they have seen of the world, and the deeper their attachment to this city.
Just as Ning Hongshu reluctantly parts with Jun Feng, Jun Feng is just as reluctant to part with Ning Hongshu.
Besides, a centuryâs lifespan isnât like three or five years.
Within a century, there is the possibility of further breakthroughs in Jun Fengâs strength.
As Jun Fengâs strength increases, his lifespan would naturally be extended.
Upon seeing Fang Muâs invitation, neither Ning Hongshu nor Jun Feng made any indication for a long while.
It wasnât that they were unwilling to give Fang Mu face, but rather that they were thoroughly shocked by what Fang Mu had just said!
What!? Master Qixing could help restore life years, and by a whole century at that!
An ordinary person without sickness or disaster would pass away naturally, living around a hundred years in the Beastmaster world.
Master Qixing was essentially giving Jun Feng another life, allowing him to live another lifetime from the starting point of being at the peak of Order!
After a moment of shock, Ning Hongshu asked Fang Mu with a hopeful expression in a soft voice.
âLittle Wood, I need a definite answer from you.â
âIf my husband and I pledge loyalty to Master Qixing, can my husband really recover a hundred years of his lifespan?â
Fang Mu had already anticipated Ning Hongshuâs reaction and knew she needed a firm confirmation from him at this moment.
At this moment, Ning Hongshu was like a person grasping at the last straw in the water.
âThatâs right, Iâve brought everything needed.â
âWe can relieve Uncle Feng from his pain and replenish his lifespan right now.â
âHowever, the healing environment must be guaranteed to be quiet, allowing not even the slightest disturbance.â
âI need to have Uncle Feng inhale a large dose of Bewildering Fragrance and be in a state of deep sleep.â
âI believe Uncle Feng wonât mind!â
Ning Hongshu had already stated her position to Fang Mu, and Jun Feng knew that he too needed to give Fang Mu a definite response.
âI am very grateful that Master Qixing is willing to offer me this opportunity, and I would ask that my young friend Jianmu definitely convey my respect and gratitude to Master Qixing!â
âI have Bewildering Fragrance on hand, ready to use at any time.â
âIâll trouble young friend Jianmu in a while!â
Having received Jun Fengâs response, Fang Mu summoned the Mechanism Fortress with a lift of his hand.
The strategic significance of the Hundred-life Carp far outweighed that of the Heavy Cherry Washing Carp, even as a Sacred Relic, and absolutely could not be exposed to the public.
With the Mechanism Fortress, Fang Mu could use it to shield against external detection.
As for extracting the pollutants implanted in Jun Fengâs body, it was nothing more than introducing a large amount of Life Elixir, while simultaneously pressing down the pollutants in Jun Fengâs body to prevent re-pollution from spreading within him.
Firstly, as the Contractor of the Sacred Radiance Bone Fragment, a Special-grade Pollutant, Fang Mu could use the fragment to suppress other pollutants within Jun Fengâs body.
Secondly, in the task of extracting the pollutants from Jun Fengâs body and restoring his health,
Xi Xi could also be of help!
âThe security here is entrusted to Elder Shu and Aunt Ning.â
âIâll go inside first and wait. Once Uncle Feng has inhaled the Bewildering Fragrance and completely lost consciousness, Elder Shu, please help me carry Uncle Feng inside!â
Fang Mu, stepping into the Mechanism Fortress, grew even more curious about the Special-grade Pollutant inside Jun Fengâs body.
What kind of Special-grade Pollutant could have contaminated Jun Fengâs body to such an extent?
The pollutants in Shu Liangjunâs body were far less fierce than those in Jun Fengâs.
Of course, pollutants arenât necessarily more formidable just because they have a stronger effect; it mainly depends on their functionality.
Fang Mu hoped to obtain a satisfying gain from Jun Feng.
Faced with Fang Mu and Shu Liangjun, neither Ning Hongshu nor Jun Feng were on guard.
Ning Hongshu and Jun Feng knew best what their current states were.
Ordinary people have no reason to harm them.
Besides, as a Saint Creator, if Master Qixing really intended to target them, he would have acted directly.
Why bother with such protracted scheming?
It should be known that the meeting between them and Master Qixing was facilitated through the intermediary, Lang Huan.
If any issue were to arise, it would certainly spread.
Before using the Bewildering Fragrance, Jun Feng and Ning Hongshu exchanged a gaze.
Both could see in the otherâs eyes a surging love that had endured through adversity and remained after disaster!
