Chapter 337: Wholehearted and Omnipotent Lu Xun

Lu Xun, how do you have time to come see me today? But you came at just the right time; I just brewed this tea, let me pour you a cup to try.

Thank you, President.

Don't be so angry; from now on just call me Uncle Wu.

Capital City, Martial Manor garrison.

The President poured Lu Xun a cup of hot tea.

After taking a sip, Lu Xun felt his whole body basking in spring breeze, every inch of his meridians unfurling.

This tea works well.

How is it?

The President looked expectant.

Great tea! Uncle Wu, this tea must have an extraordinary origin, right?

Lu Xun praised.

Hmm, this is tea brewed from the leaves of the Dao-comprehension Tree; if I weren't the President of the Capital City, I wouldn't be qualified to drink it.

The President said.

Dao-comprehension Tree.

No wonder.

Just hearing the name of this tree, you know it's not ordinary.

Uncle Wu, I came today actually to ask for a favor.

After some pleasantries, Lu Xun stated his purpose.

If there's anything you need, just speak up; I'll definitely help if I can.

The President responded very readily.

It's like this: I want to ask whether the Martial Manor's Spirit Medicine Garden has any surplus spirit medicine; our Lu Clan Group wishes to purchase some.

Lu Xun said.

Spirit Medicine Garden?

After a moment's thought, the President said: 'The official Spirit Medicine Gardens are uniformly allocated, all located in various secret realms; I can't decide on this matter. You know Director Xu, don't you? You can go find him; I'll help you get in touch and see if he's available.'

Thank you, Uncle Wu.

Lu Xun said gratefully.

He indeed knows Director Xu of the War Manor, but Lu Xun doesn't have Director Xu's contact information; he wouldn't know how to find him.

With the President's help contacting him, a lot of trouble can be saved.

Director Xu is at the Pangu Fortress; I'll send you the location—go find him directly.

Soon, there was a result.

Okay, thank you, Uncle Wu.

You kid, why all the thanks? Hurry up and go, lest he leaves soon.

Yeah!

After leaving the Martial Manor garrison, Lu Xun took out his flying vessel and headed toward the Pangu Fortress.

Pangu... this fortress must be huge.

Just hearing the name of this fortress, you know it's extraordinary.

Upon arriving at the site, Lu Xun discovered the fortress is indeed huge.

It's larger than any fortress Lu Xun has ever seen.

Its diameter should exceed a hundred kilometers, its area even greater than that of the Capital City.

After passing a series of checks, Lu Xun entered smoothly and met Director Xu.

Director Xu said: 'Lu Xun, the official Spirit Medicine Gardens are normally for internal use only and never sold externally, but the last time you saved the entire Rong Cheng, the reward you deserved has yet to be granted. How about this: I'll give you a procurement certificate for a total of five thousand cubic meters of Dark Energy worth of medicinal materials, as a reward—what do you think?'

After Lu Xun explained his purpose, Director Xu went straight to the point.

Being able to give such a quick reply, this must have been a decision Director Xu had already prepared.

It probably wasn't just him alone, but the result after he sought approval from his superiors.

Five thousand cubic meters of Dark Energy!

That number is certainly not small.

Before the Lu Clan Group opened for business, Xie Yayuan made massive purchases; altogether, it only amounted to one or two thousand cubic meters of Dark Energy.

The purchases were for alchemical ingredients.

Once refined into pills, their selling price would naturally increase severalfold, even tenfold or more.

That's wonderful, thank you, Uncle Xu!

Lu Xun naturally had no objection, expressing his thanks full of gratitude.

With this quota of five thousand cubic meters of Dark Energy, the Lu Clan Group can sustain itself for over half a year.

He simply wouldn't believe it.

The Jia Clan Group could maintain the blockade.

Such a blockade, however, comes at a cost; the Jia Clan Group must absorb all the suppliers' goods.

They might even have to pay a higher price to take them in.

Soon, Lu Xun obtained the procurement certificate.

He took the certificate back to the Capital City, but instead of first giving it to Xie Yayuan, he went to find Aodaili again.

Aodaili had not left.

This time she came over, planning to stay a few days before leaving.

"Aodaili, do you have companies in the West that cultivate spirit plants and medicinal materials?"

Lu Xun asked.

Yes,

Lu Xun set his sights on the West.

He needed to make preparations on two fronts.

If the Jia Clan Group were to engage them in a protracted war, relying on its own vast financial resources to hold out, then the five thousand cubic of Dark Energy materials would not be enough.

This must be guarded against.

Since the East cannot procure it on a large scale, we must look abroad.

"Of course, my family has several estates cultivating spirit medicines..."

Aodaili is relatively knowledgeable about this.

Because her family is in this business.

Cultivating spirit plants and medicinal materials is actually quite simple.

Choose a fertile plot of land, set up a formation or barrier, then plant spirit plants and medicinal materials inside.

Then inject Dark Energy into it, allowing these spirit plants and medicinal materials to absorb the Dark Energy and grow.

During this process, we need to create the environment needed for the spirit plants and medicinal materials to grow, so they can grow better.

This is a time- and labor-consuming task.

The medicinal materials needed for alchemy often require more than ten years, even several decades.

Therefore, during cultivation, they will cultivate in batches and sell in batches.

Ordinary powers cannot manage this.

The required funding is enormous, and the timeline is very long.

Precisely for this reason, the Jia Clan Group can control the material supply.

Because those who do this, aside from the government and the major powers using it for themselves, are only a few companies, each very large, and they have very good relations with the Jia Clan Group.

There are also some small-scale operators, but their scale is too small to meet the needs of the Lu Clan Group at all.

This matter is urgent, yet cannot be rushed.

Even if Lu Xun now spends a huge sum to build many spirit medicine gardens, it would be useless.

No matter how much Dark Energy Lu Xun has, he cannot buy time.

"It's truly a case of hitting the mark by accident."

Lu Xun didn't expect that Aodaili's family happened to be cultivating spirit medicines.

His luck is not bad.

In fact, since obtaining the Qi Luck Return, Lu Xun's luck has been consistently good.

Similar to picking up money when going out, Lu Xun has encountered this several times.

There have also been several times when, while walking, a great beauty suddenly bumped into Lu Xun's embrace; this kind of peach-blossom luck is also incessant.

"Aodaili, if I purchase alchemical materials from the West, would that be feasible?"

After Aodaili finished speaking, Lu Xun asked.

"Of course it's feasible, but the West's consumption is also large, and not much is sold to the East; if you want, I can contact my family to help you procure the medicinal materials I need."

Aodaili proactively offered to help.

"Good!"

Lu Xun naturally would not refuse.

The spirit plants and medicinal materials cultivated in the West certainly differ from those in the East.

But there are also some that both sides can use.

If Aodaili's family helps, things become much more convenient.

Aodaili said she would do it and did so, picking up her phone to contact her family.

"Lu, everything's been settled; this is my cousin's contact information, from now on you can contact her."

At nightfall, Aodaili had arranged everything.

"Eh... Lu, is this how you repay me..."

To repay Aodaili's help, Lu Xun fiercely pained her for another night.

"I'm leaving..."

The next day, Aodaili prepared to leave.

However, she ultimately couldn't leave.

This time coming to the East, Aodaili's mindset changed considerably.

I don't know if it's because they hadn't seen each other for over a year, but when Aodaili saw Lu Xun, joy unexpectedly welled up in her heart.

And after Lu Xun gave her so many soul relics, Aodaili was moved to the point of being unable to contain herself.

This meant that on the first night, no matter how Lu Xun bullied her, Aodaili gritted her teeth and endured.

On the second night, she also did not refuse.

And by the third day, she still couldn't bring herself to leave.

"Aodaili, you wouldn't have fallen for me, would you?"

Seeing Aodaili reluctant to part, Lu Xun smiled and teased.

Between him and Aodaili, there were naturally no feelings at first.

Aodaili herself came for Barbara.

After suffering successive losses at Lu Xun's hands, Barbara awoke and put forward that demand.

Aodaili, in order to obtain Barbara's help, ultimately chose to have relations with Lu Xun.

Between them, there was no talk of feelings.

But there is an old saying that goes well.

The best way to enter a woman's heart is actually through her body.

When it was time to return to the West, Aodaili obviously felt some reluctance.

She also actively spent a beautiful night with Lu Xun.

This time, Aodaili's mindset was even more different.

"Lu, if I were to fall in love with you, would you fall in love with me?"

Aodaili lightly lifted her eyes; her long eyelashes cast fine shadows in the moonlight.

"What do you think?"

Lu Xun did not give a direct answer.

As for Aodaili, he naturally liked her.

But for now, this liking is more about her body, and also the liking that comes from being her bound partner.

"I have already promised, but Lu, I will strive to make you love me!"

After Aodaili said that, she actively offered her fragrant kiss.

Then,

She sat down on it.

The next morning, Aodaili left quietly.

This time, her arrival was silent.

She came lightly, left quietly, taking not a single cloud.

After Aodaili left, Lu Xun found Xie Yuyan, and gave her the purchase certificate and the contact information of Aodaili's cousin.

"Wow, boss, you're too amazing!"

Xie Yuyan never expected that such a big problem would be solved so easily by Lu Xun.

She instantly admired Lu Xun to the point of being unable to contain herself.

In her eyes, Lu Xun had become synonymous with being omnipotent.
