407 The Means (1/2)

”Someone's here,” Wei-ah said expressionlessly After he said it, he shot over to Sang Hanshui's side and used his right hand to give hi Hanshui could react, his eyes went blank, and he went unconscious In the blink of an eye, Wei-ah picked Sang Hanshui up and disappeared with Bu Mo

At just that time, there was a knock on the door

Chen Mu still didn't understand how Wei-ah could discover someone at such a distance He was actually pretty advanced hiard, his ability to perceive physical objects having surpassed his sensitivity to energy Even though that was the case, Wei-ah's range of detection was still a lot bigger than his He would only be stronger than Wei-ah if he were to use the Snake Lens

He opened the door to see Ah Sang with a young, pretty wo behind her

”This is Miss Lin Yao fro with you,” Ah Sang said cautiously

In people's eyes, Moon Frost Island was unreachable, and they basically would never dare to be insubordinate So, when Lin Yao had brought up her request, Ah Sang could only lead her in even though she kneould likely be displeasing to Qiao Yuan

The influence of Moon Frost Island was so ingrained ae District That had built up across hundreds of years Such i poas far beyond what any other card artisans could compare with

Chen Mu surprisingly didn't show any displeasure, understanding quite well how helpless Ah Sang was Ever since his youth, when he had been at the lowest reaches of society, he had a pretty thorough understanding of society's various rules

”What's up?” He didn't eaze toward Lin Yao behind her

Lin Yao earing a perfectly fresh and delightful light green battle suit, looking rather coone systeht eyes, white teeth, and sharp chin in her perfect oval face were delicate and captivating

She ht bow and said a little pathetically, ”We've run into some trouble, Mr Qiao I hope you can help us out, if you please”

”Trouble?” Chen Mu didn't immediately reply

”Yes I believe you know there has been a sudden gathering of large nuood ones Although we still don't knohat their goal is, so sent to our school were a after Moon Frost Island” Lin Yao's speech was crisp and well-spoken

Seeing that Qiao Yuan hadn't been affected, her eyes flashed a look of nervousness, though she kept her cool ”If you could lend us a hand this time, Mr Qiao, you would earn Moon Frost Island's friendshi+p If Mr Qiao doesn't want to get caught up with us, you may still run into some troublesoive you another way out

”Senior class to coe in the situation So, there was no other choice but forbrought up to , heto assist Miss Ah Sang for ten days, heto help us for a few days”

Lin Yao had plenty of ability to persuade Qiao Yuan Before coation As she saw it, if even Ah Sang could persuade Qiao Yuan to work for her, they should have plenty of chips to attract hiacies, which would have a fatal attraction for any card artisan If Qiao Yuan craved wealth and liked Oudi, that would be far simpler still

As she saw it, the reason Qiao Yuan still hadn't agreed was nothingas she opened with a sufficiently superior price, he would have no reason not to agree

Unexpectedly, however, Chen Mu simply shook his head ”I'm sorry, but I'm not interested”

Lin Yao was taken aback, and there flashed a hint of fury in her eyes ”Why doesn't Mr Qiao think about it for a while? Perhaps in Mr Qiao's eyes, Moon Frost Island is not so worthy of assistance as a trading firm”

Once she said that, the look on Ah Sang's face becaly Lin Yao felt a little bad about it herself By then, though, she felt nervous enough that she couldn't pay attention to such details, and she stared firly face had become still more detestable

Chen Mu was indifferent to her displeased tone, such things not being worth his getting upset about Then, re his current identity as Qiao Yuan, he drummed up a displeased expression and said coldly, ”I don't require Miss Lin to make these sorts of decisions for me Pardon me, but I have to train”

Having said that, and before Lin Yao could react, he slammed the door shut There was no way she wouldn't have affected any other card artisan But, as far as Chen Mu was concerned, Zargan was a big whirlpool just then He was afraid he ht not be able to stay clear of it, so ould he take the initiative to dive right into it? He certainly wasn't worried about how deep the water was since there wouldn't even be any dregs left for hiotten carried away by his last few victories, and he knew his oeight very well He had never wanted to get the attention of the Big Six, so ould he take the initiative to trust Moon Frost Island now?

With the conflict see whether he should leave a little early; it wouldn't be good if he were to be caught up in its spread

A sudden burst of noise then came from outside
