Star Iron: Maple of Reincarnation
Chapter 17 Chess Game
At the reception center of the Taibusi, Xu Xiangfeng sat quietly on an ancient-style chair, with a glass of fine tea imported by the [company] brewing beside him, and standing at the door was Taibusi's guard Yunqi.
The room was quiet and a little eerie.
If possible, Xu Xiangfeng really didn't want to deal with this Taibu. She was different from that old guy Jing Yuan. She was young and energetic, and often didn't care about her face. But after being rejected by Jing Yuan, he still came to the Taibu Division.
As an ancient artifact that has lived for thousands of years, he has experienced too many ups and downs. He has faced too many ups and downs in the history of the Immortal Boat, so shameless behavior is easy for him.
He wanted to find out Fu Xuan's attitude. If possible, he hoped that she would respect the Xu family's wishes and abandon Mo Feng as a chess piece.
As the patriarch of the Xu family, he is certainly not an ordinary person. He would not do anything impulsive. After all, he has experienced too many years and now he is almost entering the demon body. He is no longer the young and brilliant man he used to be.
The feeling that Mo Feng gave him was too weird. It was an intuition honed over thousands of years. Being so young yet able to achieve such a terrifying situation, Xu Xiangfeng would rather nip all possibilities in the bud, no matter how insignificant.
Of course, it was not just these that made Xu Xiangfeng determined. Mo Feng was favored by Jing Yuan and Fu Xuan at the same time. This was very dangerous, too dangerous.
Since the Xu family had already become an enemy of such a dangerous person, and the demolition of Mo Feng's store had the Xu family's approval, then they might as well do it once and for all.
"I wonder what Master Xu wants to talk to me about?" Following a childish voice, Yunqi saluted the pink-haired girl who was a head shorter than them. Who else could it be but Fu Xuan?
"The Xu family has recently acquired a new tea, named [Taixu Tea]. Knowing that Lord Taibu loves tea, we specially sent it to you. Please accept it, Lord Taibu." Xu Xiangfeng said with a smile. Although it was flattery, normal people would not feel awkward when seeing this smile. This was the acting of an old monster who had lived for a thousand years.
"Although I am somewhat interested in the tea ceremony, I do not like expensive gifts. If you have nothing else to do, please go back. I am busy with official duties and will not see you off." Fu Xuan had predicted the fortune for today, and it seemed that some minor troubles were referring to this. She was not stupid, and what good intentions could a weasel have when paying New Year's greetings to a chicken?
"Then I will speak frankly, Lord Taibu. As long as you can make the decision for the Xu family, after you become a general, the Xu family will definitely help you succeed." Xu Xiangfeng said.
A penny can make many heroes fail. The great help mentioned by Xu Xiangfeng is naturally financial. In terms of financial resources, the Yuque Fu family is not as good as the Luofu Xu family. What's more, it is impossible for Yuque to give up everything for Fu Xuan alone. It is said that Fu Xuan has long left the main Fu family. What's more, distant water cannot quench immediate thirst.
"I don't need it yet. Please go back." Fu Xuan smiled. She instinctively rejected this smelly money, this money mixed with people's blood and sweat.
"Master Taibu, there is no need to refuse like this. How about we both make a concession? The Xu family will provide Master Taibu with 30% of the export share, and Master Taibu will just promise the Xu family one thing." Xu Xiangfeng's signature skill is to make a big request first, which will often be rejected. This is foreseeable. Various powerful people have extended olive branches to Fu Xuan before, but all failed. After that, if they make smaller requests, the probability of success will increase exponentially.
Fu Xuan is also a human being, and as a human being he won't have a problem with money.
"Hmm, so generous? Thirty percent is about 100 million credit points, right? What do you want me to do?" Fu Xuan said with a smile. She had already guessed what the request would be, and she didn't even need divination.
"All you need to do is for Master Taibu to abandon Mo Feng as a chess piece. There are so many chess pieces in the world, why should you be obsessed with just one?" Xu Xiangfeng's true intentions were revealed.
"Please go back. I don't want to say this again. I won't be so polite next time." Fu Xuan said coldly, and slowly left the guesthouse. "It's not your turn to speculate on my intentions."
"You..." Xu Xiangfeng was totally caught off guard by being rejected so decisively. He hadn't recovered from his shock until Fu Xuan disappeared from his sight and the tea had completely cooled down.
This made him even more certain that Mo Feng was not ordinary and he must die.
Fu Xuan slowly returned to the vicinity of the Qiongguan Formation, holding onto the Qiongguan Formation, wondering what he was thinking.
He stared at Jianmu in the distance for a long time before slowly moving to the desk to continue completing today's work.
Chess piece... yes, I am just using others. No matter how I deceive myself, I am nothing but hypocritical morality, no different from those cannibals. I am the pot calling the kettle black when I am fifty steps ahead.
But for the better future of Luofu, since fate has told us to do it this way, then let's do it this way. For the ultimate ideal of the Xianzhou Alliance, any sacrifice is worth forgiving.
Even if you are unwilling, even if you don't want to take advantage of others, even if you... but seeking benefits and avoiding harm, for a better future, all this is inevitable.
Am I not also a chess piece?
I self-righteously discarded some things that could be discarded. How could I judge whether these things could be discarded? Was I just relying on fate? What was the difference between me and those guys in the incinerator?
The only chess player in the world is probably the Star God. Obviously the Patrolling Star God Lan has such great power that he can wipe out the army of abundance with just one strike. Then what is the point for people like us who are under the Star God to patrol the world for abundant evil creatures?
Fu Xuan shook his head and stopped thinking about it.
It seems that people end up living the life they least want to live. She used to not understand her master over and over again, but now, she has to become the shadow of her master.
People who see through fate are most likely to be manipulated by it.
Although it was absurd, it was true. If she could choose, she would rather close her eyes forever and never see the future again, but she was Luofu Taibu... It was her duty to help Luofu avoid disaster and bring good luck.
……
Somewhere in orbit on the azure planet, a space station is circling at high speed.
Its name is Black Tower Space Station. The real owner of the space station, just like the name of the space station, is [Genius Club] 83 Black Tower.
But now few people have seen the real Black Tower. There are only dolls of Black Tower scattered throughout the space station. However, she doesn't care about anything. All matters, big or small, are decided by the stationmaster Ester.
"Teacher, you finally came out." Estelle breathed a sigh of relief as she watched an exquisite puppet finally come out of the simulated universe.
"What? Will something happen to me? Even if something happens, it's this doll that's in trouble. There are so many dolls." Heita said disapprovingly. She entered the simulated universe naturally to collect some necessary data as a direction for future breakthroughs. Ruan Mei just plays badly, Screw Gumm often disappears, and that kid Stephen is so lazy that he is rarely seen.
I have to do so many things by myself, I am really hardworking.
"Someone from the company wants to talk to the teacher..." Estelle said in a low voice.
"Not interested. Anything else? I'll just talk to you about business cooperation." Heita said, with his hands on his hips.
"I heard they said that teachers would definitely be interested in this topic."
"Oh, you are quite confident. Tell me about it."
"I heard it's the secret of the reincarnation species. It's related to the Void Star God."
"Is it related to the Star God? Haha, it's a bit complicated. I'll go and take care of it then."
Ms. Heita slowly walked out of the laboratory and headed towards the reception hall of the space station. Star God was her subject, and only someone at the level of Star God could attract the attention of this genius.
The progress of simulating the universe is currently stagnant, and it would be great if someone could provide new research materials.
The company has gone to great lengths to establish connections with the genius club.
