Chapter 988: Chapter 636 Power_2 Chapter 988: Chapter 636 Power_2 An A-level task worth a terrifying ten billion or more, Yang Xuan simply couldn’t understand how a small pill could be truly worth tens of billions.
However, she could only bury such doubts in her heart.
Since Chu Mo had already made a decision, she had no choice but to carry it out, not daring to raise even the slightest question.
“Mr.
Chu, please rest assured,” she said with bowed head, “in addition to posting the task at the club, we will also utilize the club’s connections and power to search for the Great Restoration Pill.
As soon as we have any clues, we will report them to you imdiately!”
As Yang Xuan respectfully assured him with a bow, Chu Mo realized that Long Huan Yu, who had always followed by his side, had disappeared without a trace.
He looked around and soon discovered that the young master of the Long family was standing in front of a giant screen, which displayed the S-level tasks of the eight great families.
...
The task given to Long Huan Yu by the head of the Long family, Long Zhentian, was to accept this mission.
With a simple press of a button before him, his task would be considered complete.
Chu Mo slightly curled his lips.
The eight great families’ encirclent against him had ultimately failed, while he had equally used the Longevity Club as a breakthrough point to gradually disintegrate the alliance of the eight great families.
Just as Chu Mo was about to step forward, a stooped figure of an old man suddenly appeared by his side.
The man’s face was full of wrinkles, his hair completely white, looking as though he might fall down at any mont.
The elderly man, who appeared to be at least in his eighties or nineties, slowly approached Chu Mo.
He first nodded to Chu Mo with a smile and then spoke in a hoarse voice:
“Mr.
Chu, thank you for your great generosity.
Without your permission, this old man fears he wouldn’t live to see the end of the year!”
The nearly hundred-year-old man’s cloudy eyes held a glint of wisdom as he gestured a toast to Chu Mo.
After taking a sip of red wine, he turned and left contentedly.
As Chu Mo watched the old man’s staggering departure with a slight frown, Liang Bing stepped forward and whispered in Chu Mo’s ear:
“Mr.
Chu, this is the Family Head of the Zhu family from Suzhou City!”
Seeing Chu Mo’s frown remain, Liang Bing explained earnestly:
“Mr.
Chu, a few days ago at the Trendy Bar, several spokespersons were present.
Dong Xun’er wanted to buy the Splendid Building in Suzhou City, which is owned by the Zhu family.
However, the Zhu family proposed joining the Longevity Club as a condition.
The Zhu family’s total assets are ninety billion, not quite reaching the threshold of a hundred billion, so they have always been barred from the club.
But because their assets are very close to the hundred-billion mark, they have never given up.
It was Mr.
Chu who agreed to lower the club mbership threshold, allowing them to pay a high mbership fee and join the club, thus enabling the Zhu family head to beco a mber of our club!”
Upon hearing Liang Bing’s explanation, Chu Mo recalled the gathering of several spokespersons he had arranged a few days ago.
At that ti, Dong Xun’er did indeed request a family to be allowed into the club, for which Chu Mo had even asked the club to co up with a feasible plan.
Now that the Zhu family had joined the club, it seed the club had perfected the sche.
The lowered barriers to entry ant that more mbers would join the club, and these mbers would pay a sky-high mbership fee, thus replenishing the club’s finances.
Looking at the staggering figure of the old man, Chu Mo knew that for people like the Family Head of the Zhu family, who were nearly at the end of their years, the allure of the Longevity Pill was imnsely great.
For such individuals, no matter the cost, they would try by all ans to join the club.
Chu Mo quickly averted his gaze, and once again started moving forward.
He then approached Long Huan Yu, looking at the young man in front of him whose face was filled with excitent but whose eyes held hesitation.
Chu Mo’s lips slightly curled up again, and he gave Long Huan Yu’s shoulder a gentle pat, nodding slightly to him.
With Chu Mo’s encouragent, Long Huan Yu seed to regain his confidence and courage.
He finally took a step forward, approached the large screen, and then pressed the button in front of him firmly.
The next mont, with a series of beeps, the previously bright screen suddenly turned gray, signaling that the S-level task displayed before him had been accepted by soone.
A mont later, the back door of the hall swung open, and the manager of the club, Yang Xuan, slowly approached, holding a floral tray.
At the center of the tray, a green ring designated for senior mbers of the club nearly captured the attention of everyone present.
When Yang Xuan reached Long Huan Yu’s side, the young scion of Hua Country’s foremost family seed sowhat at a loss, despite trying to appear composed.
Indeed, under the scrutiny of several dozen of the club’s elite mbers, a faint hint of panic could be seen in Long Huan Yu’s eyes.
Yang Xuan, as the head of the club, would only make a personal appearance when an A-level mber or above was born.
At this mont, with a smile spread across her face, Yang Xuan approached Long Huan Yu and solemnly placed the green gemstone ring on his finger.
Then, she spoke,
“Congratulations, Mr.
Long.
From today onward, you are a senior mber of our Longevity Club.
You will enjoy the most top-tier services our club has to offer.
As an S-level mber of our club, no matter where you are, no matter what difficulties you face, just a phone call away, our club will go to any lengths to help you resolve them!”
Amidst Yang Xuan’s delightful voice, Long Huan Yu, who was gently caressing the green ring on his hand, took a deep breath and all of a sudden said,
“I’d like to invite the gentleman downstairs, Mr.
Bai, to co up.
I wonder if that might be possible?”
Long Huan Yu, having just received his task and beco a senior club mber, didn’t pause for a mont before making his request known.
As a senior mber of the Longevity Club, the club must fulfill any wish he had, as long as it did not violate the club’s principles.
This was, in fact, one of the privileges of being a senior mber of the Longevity Club.
It was precisely because of these privileges that the top-tier mbers were even more desperate to beco senior mbers.
Otherwise, if not even a small wish could be fulfilled, the value of the senior mbership of the Longevity Club would be lost.
However, Long Huan Yu’s first wish obviously conflicted with the club’s principles.
Thus, unable to make a decision, Yang Xuan imdiately turned her gaze to Chu Mo.
The Longevity Club had been established for a year and a half, and it had been two months since the club issued rings for the first ti during the inaugural gathering of wealthy elites.
In those two months, not a single mber had actively used their privileges.
That is to say, Long Huan Yu was the first senior mber to actively request the club’s assistance with a matter.
If Chu Mo were to simply refuse, it would undoubtedly tarnish the reputation of the club.
Therefore, after a mont of contemplation, Chu Mo gave a subtle nod to Yang Xuan across from him.
Naturally, with Chu Mo’s consent, a smile spread across Yang Xuan’s face as she nodded in agreent,
“Don’t worry, Mr.
Long.
I’ll have soone bring Mr.
Bai up from downstairs right away!”
As Long Huan Yu relaxed slightly, Yang Xuan imdiately turned and headed back.
The atmosphere in the first-floor hall, filled with two half-step Grandmasters and three true Great Grandmasters, was tense to the extre.
Even as the club’s manager, she dared not act rashly.
Long Huan Yu had finally completed his mission and had used his senior mbership privilege to deal with the nuisance of the white-clad bodyguard.
Thus, he felt an uncommon sense of relief.
However, just then, Long Huan Yu’s phone rang.
He glanced at the many elite tycoons gathered around and, not wanting to seem presumptuous, imdiately picked up the phone and answered the call.
A calm, youthful voice ca through on the other end, and shortly after, Long Huan Yu’s expression darkened.
Right at that mont, the elevator doors in the hall opened, and the young man in white, who had previously been stopped downstairs, slowly made his appearance.
