Chapter 678 - 385: Negotiation_2
"Master Jing Mo of Beishu Trading Company greets Guest Elder Master Li!" Master Jing Mo said respectfully as he came forward to pay his respects.
"Has Beishu Trading Company come forward for Mingxin Sect?" Li Shiming asked indifferently, looking at Master Jing Mo.
Although he was a guest elder at Beishu Trading Company, if the company helped outsiders in this matter, he wouldn’t need to stay with them anymore.
Being a guest elder was a position that allowed him to leave at any time, affording him great freedom.
"Master Li misunderstood, I was not aware that this matter concerned you. I am on your side!" Master Jing Mo shook his head repeatedly and immediately chose his position.
What a joke, what status did Master Li hold? Although he was a Late-stage Golden Core Shopkeeper, his status in the Beishu Trading Company was far below that of Li Shiming.
"My mortal father was severely injured by the order of a True Disciple of the Mingxin Sect and has only a year left in his lifespan. I demanded that they hand over that True Disciple Bo Zhao who deceived me with counterfeit. My demands are not high, just hand over Bo Ran who deceived me and Bo Zhao, and I will retreat!" Li Shiming, hearing what Master Jing Mo said, changed his demeanor and stated his reasons.
"Mingxin Sect indeed has the audacity to do so. Please rest assured, Master Li, Beishu Trading Company will support you with full strength. Both our ancestors have said, if you need anything, they will act on your behalf!" Master Jing Mo would stand by Li Shiming even if he were unreasonable, let alone now that he was justified.
What Master Jing Mo mentioned was true, Beishu Trading Company valued Li Shiming highly. One of their ancestors, Ancestor Ling, owed Li Shiming a favor, having exchanged a ’Youthful Elixir’ from him.
The two ancestors highly regarded Li Shiming’s alchemy skills and believed that he could grow to possess the ability to refine pills for them.
"Master Li, you have advanced to the Golden Core Middle Stage!" Master Jing Mo suddenly noticed Li Shiming’s realm, and he exclaimed incredulously.
It was no wonder he was impolite—any Late-stage Golden Core Cultivator on the Beishu Continent would be just as excited to learn of Li Shiming’s advancement to Golden Core Middle Stage.
