Fan Lou was one of Kong Huan's people, and not many people knew about this.
Kong Huan always took care of herself and her own.
As a mber of Honor Absent Parliant, Kong Huan's decision could influence their decisions to a certain extent.
Kong Huan also had many rivals.
If their relationship was exposed, soone of Fan Lou's standing would definitely put a dent in Kong Huan's reputation.
However, those around Kong Huan knew that she fully supported Fan Lou. His past few years of hard work had also brought Kong Huan significant benefits.
Fan Lou had just angered Kong Huan, and she was hurriedly cleaning up his ss.
Why was Fan Lou back again? Was it possible that Fan Lou knew that he had made an error and was trying to get on her good side? It was not easy to appease a hopping-mad Kong Huan!
Kong Mu ca from the sa species as Kong Huan and served her since they were young.
When Kong Mu saw that Fan Lou was back again, she knew that Kong Huan's mood would be affected when she saw him again.
Kong Mu walked up to Fan Lou and looked him up and down before saying seriously, "Fan Lou, you should be aware of Lordess Kong Huan's temperant. If you know that you've made a mistake, just make sure not to repeat it again!
"When Lordess Kong Huan sees you again, she will punish you if her anger is still lingering. Don't bla for not warning you!"
Kong Mu and Fan Lou were acquainted with each other.
In Kong Mu's eyes, Fan Lou used to be very intelligent. Why was he acting so stupidly now?
Even with the relationship that existed between Kong Mu and Kong Huan, Kong Mu needed to avoid showing her face to Kong Huan when she made mistakes.
She was doing Fan Lou a favor by giving him this reminder. With her status, it would serve Fan Lou well to listen to her!
Kong Huan had spent less than 1/3 of her ti in the past 1,000 years in Honor Absent Palace. For the remaining 2/3 of the ti, Kong Mu was the one handling the affairs from Honor Absent Palace on Kong Huan's behalf.
Fan Lou smiled bitterly before clasping his hands together.
"Your Grace Kong Mu, I know of Lordess Kong Huan's temper. However, I have a reason that necessitates my eting with Lordess Kong Huan!"
Kong Mu looked surprised. For Fan Lou to co despite knowing of Kong Huan's temper, this matter had to be serious!
Based on Fan Lou's expression, he was not bringing good news. Since it was not good news, there was no need for Kong Mu to participate and put herself at risk of being burned.
Fan Lou never stopped thinking and pondering while he was speaking with Kong Mu. Should he tell her about this matter?
Although Kong Mu was Kong Huan's servant and would never do anything that went against Kong Huan's benefits, Fan Lou believed that she would plead for rcy on his behalf as long as Kong Huan's benefits were not impacted!
As long as he was able to convince her to speak up for him in front of Kong Huan, he would not have to bear the full brunt of Kong Huan's rage.
As long as he remained a Boundary Patrol Envoy and led the Sixth Boundary Patrol Team, he could earn whatever resources he had to cough up now!
Fan Lou sighed sadly.
He was well aware of Kong Mu's greedy nature, but he had no choice but to beg her now.
"Your Grace Kong Mu, we have known each other for tens of thousands of years. I have always shown you the greatest of respect. Can I ask for your help this one ti? If you are willing to help , I am willing to give you the harvest of a miniature spirit qi mine for the next 10,000 years!"
Fan Lou's words were strung together very well. Although he did not explicitly play the emotional card, emotions perated his words.
He even dangled tempting profits in front of Kong Mu! His heart was pricked by reluctance when he promised such profits to her. He believed that these profits were sufficient to persuade Kong Mu!
There were tis when Kong Mu could make decisions on Kong Huan's behalf. However, all the offerings had to go to Kong Huan, and Kong Mu could only take a very small cut. Kong Huan was not generous, even to longti servants like Kong Mu!
As greedy as Kong Mu was, she was also smart.
10,000 years of harvest from a miniature mine was not a small sum.
Fan Lou had spent almost all of his assets in order to obtain the rights to develop this miniature spirit qi mine.
The fact that Fan Lou was willing to give her such resources ant that he had committed a serious blunder!
Even with these profits within reach, Kong Mu did not agree imdiately. Instead, she cautiously asked, "Fan Lou, it's true that we have known each other for a long ti. But you can't just ask for help. You need to tell exactly what you need help with! I can't be of help in everything. You need to keep this in mind!"
Since Fan Lou was asking Kong Mu for help, he could not hide the truth from her.
He began to describe the situation in detail.
"Your Grace Kong Mu, you should be aware of my reason for coming to see Lordess Kong Huan now."
Kong Mu nodded. She was aware of the matter.
She did not think that Fan Lou had done anything wrong, just that he was down on his luck. It was true that there was sothing off about that Class 2 world!
Kong Huan would definitely investigate that Class 2 world after settling this issue!
There was a case in the past when a few bigshots managed to obtain a fair amount of outstanding resources from a low-class world, enabling them to improve significantly.
When Kong Mu nodded, Fan Lou did not provide more of an explanation and got right to the main point.
"When I returned to my team, another four mbers had died. This happened because another World Emperor/Divine Kingdom appeared in that Class 2 world. They didn't learn their lesson from the last ti and decided on their own accord to investigate that world.
"I didn't have the chance to stop them! I hope that you'll be able to speak up on my behalf in front of Lordess Kong Huan so she doesn't punish too heavily!"
Kong Mu was montarily stunned when she heard what Fan Lou said. She never anticipated such a thing to happen! She was montarily at a loss about what to say next.
Kong Mu now knew why Fan Lou had returned so soon. This was the reason!
However, once Kong Huan heard of this matter, she would definitely vent all her fury on Fan Lou!
This was not because Kong Huan was unable to understand Fan Lou's position.
Fan Lou was an innocent who had been dragged into this matter. However, there was no way that Kong Huan would let Fan Lou off easily because this matter caused her to lose unquantifiable profits. She might have also lost a major opportunity!
If a Boundary Patrol Team lost eight or nine of its mbers, Kong Huan could use her own ans to cover up the matter.
But now that another four mbers had died, this matter absolutely needed to be reported to the Honor Absent Parliant!
Once Honor Absent Parliant found out about this matter, one could only imagine how many people would try to claim a share of the loot.
It was true that Kong Huan was a mber of Honor Absent Parliant, but she could not be considered a bigshot. If she truly wanted to punish Fan Lou, it would be because she was upset that she had lost such an opportunity.
Hence, it was not plausible for Kong Mu to help Fan Lou with this matter.
However, Kong Mu did not say this clearly and gave her a verbal tentative agreent.
"I will make a note of this. If Lordess Kong Huan is still angry, nothing I say will work. But once she's done, I will definitely speak up for you and do my best to help you keep your position as a Boundary Patrol Envoy. You won't be held back by just one incident!
"You don't need to give 10,000 years of harvest from the miniature spirit qi mine. 8,000 years will do. I will also only be taking 70% of the profits! You already say that we are old friends. I care more about helping you than receiving those resources!"
Despite knowing that she could not be of help in any way, Kong Mu still played the old friend card. After all, Fan Lou had no way to check if she did end up helping him. As long as she said she did help, it would an she had!
After saying that, Fan Lou would owe her an enormous favor if he survived.
If Fan Lou died, his resources would all go to Kong Huan and have nothing to do with Kong Mu.
If she took 10,000 years of harvest from Fan Lou's miniature spirit qi mine, Fan Lou would eventually beco resentful toward her. Fan Lou would beco more attached to her if she volunteered to take less profits.
In the future, she could make life easier for Fan Lou as he continued to remain a part of Kong Huan's camp. Then, he would definitely compensate her with profits of his own!
Kong Mu had used this thod to build bridges with many people over the years. She enjoyed the feeling of using her authority to manipulate others.
Otherwise, with Kong Huan's stingy character, Kong Mu's power would never have increased so rapidly!
Fan Lou never thought much of Kong Mu in the past. But now, he felt indebted to her. She was essentially sending assistance during his ti of need.
Before this, Fan Lou had no idea that being sent assistance during his ti of need was such a warm feeling!
When Kong Mu saw the way that Fan Lou was looking at her, she could not help but smile broadly.
Ah! Another fool that was falling to this thod of manipulation!
She could only hope that this fool had better luck. If his luck was bad and Kong Huan killed him in a fit of rage, she would have no ans of extracting profits from him in the future!
When it ca to using emotions to manipulate a person, the crux was hitting the iron while it was hot. Now that Fan Lou was feeling grateful toward her, she needed to deepen this gratitude!
As a mber of the Alluring Fox species, Kong Mu was gorgeous.
She walked over to Fan Lou and adjusted the two accessories hanging on the front of his attire.
"Later, try to emphasize that Class 2 world's uniqueness. Do not lie to Lordess Kong Huan! The more you talk up that Class 2 world, the less likely Lordess Kong Huan will direct her rage at you!"
Fan Lou earnestly took note of what Kong Mu said. She was telling him how to preserve his life.
It could be said that no one knew more about this Class 2 world than Fan Lou.
As long as the Class 2 world was seen as sufficiently exceptional, Fan Lou's understanding of the Class 2 world would beco useful to Lordess Kong Huan.
Kong Mu really hoped that Fan Lou would survive. If he survived, he would beco a useful resource to her.
How could an outstanding mber of the Alluring Foxes lack a crowd of n around her?

While in the Spirit Lock spatial zone, Blackie had successfully evolved from Suzerain I/Myth I to Suzerain X/pinnacle Myth. It was on the precipice of evolving.
Blackie had experienced way too much hardship on its journey of evolving from a regular Spirit-Siphon Goldfish to a five-clawed dragon. Each evolution involved Blackie's body being reconfigured.
The five-clawed dragon was considered to be excellent.
Lin Yuan was not certain which direction Blackie's bloodline would take during this evolution.
