Chapter 1125: Chapter 539: Nine Poisons!

Fang Mu’s first topic to participate in at the Contract Garden was smoothly settled.

The gathering at the Contract Garden quickly moved on to the second part, where Grandmaster Creators would now communicate with each other.

These Grandmaster Creators could issue tasks to the outside.

If other Grandmaster Creators accepted these tasks, they were to do everything possible to fulfill the other party’s requirements.

Completing the requirements would allow them to receive the agreed-upon compensation in advance.

The transactions reached during the Contract Garden gathering were protected by the Contract Garden.

Each Grandmaster Creator’s network of relationships was quite complex; behind every Grandmaster Creator in reality lay a myriad of connections.

When trading amongst Grandmaster Creators in reality, it was difficult to wholly trust each other unless they were very familiar with one another.

Trading on the Contract Garden platform spared the need for excessive scrutiny.

Lang Huan had once thought about bringing up the development of Tide Bay at the Contract Garden gathering to issue a task.

But in the end, Lang Huan did not do so.

Lang Huan relied neither on Han Ming nor on the Eternal Mother Yongle.

In case their task attracted the interest of Han Ming and Eternal Mother Yongle and they negotiated a deal,

Lang Huan simply didn’t have the ability to refuse.

Lang Huan did not want to relinquish the initiative in developing Tide Bay.

Once the initiative was lost, Yayue Place’s interests could no longer be secured.

It was truly his fate to have unwittingly made a deal with Qixing, the Saint Creator.

For now, he could vaguely count himself as one of Qixing’s people concerning the development of Tide Bay.

Wang Mi and Xu Fengnian had brought Qixing’s introduction, most likely having met Qixing in person.

Both were highly likely to have pledged their loyalty to Qixing.

The remarks made by Wang Mi and Xu Fengnian just now all had an inclination toward Qixing.

Unknowingly, the influence web of the suddenly emerged dignitary Qixing had begun to unfold within the Contract Garden.

Fang Mu watched these Grandmaster Creators issue tasks, interested in many of the tasks posted.

But Fang Mu could not personally step into the arena to take on these tasks posted by Grandmaster Creators.

For Qixing, the Saint Creator, to do so would seem somewhat degrading.

Moreover, Fang Mu was unclear about the backgrounds of these Grandmaster Creators.

If any of these Grandmaster Creators had already affiliated with Han Ming or Eternal Mother Yongle, such actions could lead to misunderstandings.

At the very least, Fang Mu needed to attend three to four Contract Garden gatherings to clearly understand the composition of these Grandmaster Creators.

Among all the Grandmaster Creators present, the most embarrassed was certainly Master Lan Ye.

Master Lan Ye was extremely shamed and filled with indignation,

but he dared not express any of this anger toward Qixing.

He even feared that Qixing, after reprimanding him, had not yet extinguished the anger in his heart

and would in the future trouble him in other matters!

Right now, among the Grandmaster Creators openly aligned with Qixing, there was only Yi Han.

Lanye prepared to privately contact Yi Han and offer some benefits,

hoping Yi Han could eloquently say a few good words for him in front of Qixing.

Just then, Fang Mu only heard a middle-aged woman with long dark red hair and a tall figure say,

“I would like to ask my colleagues for help, to help a friend of mine extract the special-grade pollutant that has activated within their body.”

“There will be a generous reward upon success!”

While speaking, the middle-aged woman occasionally surveyed her surroundings,

her peripheral vision discreetly glancing towards the location of Fang Mu, Han Ming, and Eternal Mother Yongle.

It was clear that the friend mentioned by the woman was of exceptional importance to her.

However, after quite a long time, no Grandmaster Creator responded to the woman’s words.

A few Grandmaster Creators who were familiar with the woman could not help but sigh.

Even stepping into the Peak of Order and climbing the summit of power could not escape the cycles of life and death.

When human effort is exhausted, and a powerful Beast Master is powerless despite considering all methods,

resorting to special-grade pollutants to gamble on luck is inevitable.

If successful, one might live a decade or more.

If defeated, turning into a monster is the end, returning to dust to dust, earth to earth.

The integration of pollutants into the body entails great risk.

And if it fails, it can even affect the already limited remaining lifespan.

The middle-aged woman was the master of the Hall of Nine Poisons.

The Hall of Nine Poisons acts ruthlessly,

but it is such a ruthless force that shelters three federations of humanity.

Their poison doctors, who treat diseases with toxins, save at least tens of millions of ordinary people every year on the Cold Poison Continent where miasma fills the air.

The master of the Hall of Nine Poisons is known as the Master of Nine Poisons.

The Master of Nine Poisons used to give off the impression of being solitary yet deeply devoted.

The partner she raised herself was on the cusp of the Peak of Order.

Sadly, even profound affection cannot retain the passing of time.

For nearly fifty years, all the tasks released by the Master of Nine Poisons at Contract Garden gatherings were related to her partner.

At first, she sought ways to prolong her partner’s life.

Unable to find a method, she eventually resorted to implanting pollutants into the body.

Essentially, all strong beings in the world eventually cannot escape the harm of special-grade pollutants.

Lang Huan obviously knew the Master of Nine Poisons very well.

“Hong Shao, you’ve done enough, continuing will only deepen the pain for both you and him!”

The Hall of Nine Poisons is the largest force in the Cold Poison Continent.

It is said that a second Grandmaster Creator will soon emerge from within the force.
