Chapter 575: Chapter 285: The Youth’s Heart is as Vast as the Sea!_1
How could someone from a powerful faction care about the lives and deaths of a few servants?
Ke Wu and the other three coachmen grew up in the Town Rock Family, with little exposure to the outside world.
Therefore, it was impossible for people like Ke Wu to have known such a prominent figure in the past.
Subconsciously, Gu Che assumed that if Ke Wu and the others had the opportunity to connect with such a powerful person, they would not have chosen to remain as insignificant coachmen in the Town Rock Family.
Without a doubt, Ke Wu and the others were loyal servants.
Otherwise, Ke Wu wouldn’t have insisted on fleeing with these four Beast Cars when core members of the Town Rock Family were dropping unconscious one by one.
But, no matter how faithful servants were, they couldn’t make the family owe two bottles of Grandmaster-level Life Elixir.
Gu Che had no regrets about his actions, but he feared that Fang Mu might be the sort of person who was too generous and kind-hearted.
If this were the case, Fang Mu most likely already considered him cruel and ruthless.
However, this was the education Gu Che had received since he was a child.
Gu Che didn’t realize that not only had Fang Mu formed an opinion of him, but the impression of the entire Town Rock Family in Fang Mu’s eyes had also deteriorated.
Fang Mu had a general idea of the temperament of the Town Rock Family from Gu Che’s treatment of his faithful servants.
Such a power, displaying no regard for the lives of their loyal servants, was a typical representation of self-interest at its finest.
While harmony might abound within the family, they seemed incapable of sincerity towards the outside world.
Fang Mu was not an excessively kind person. If he saved the people of the Town Rock Family, he must have his reasons.
Originally, Fang Mu did not plan to casually waste the Soul Parasite Ants produced by the Covenant Servant Soul Ant Queen.
The Covenant Servant Soul Ant Queen had been absorbing Fang Mu’s Soul Energy all along, finally showing signs of advancing to the Silver Stage.
During the process of advancing to the Silver Stage, the Covenant Servant Soul Ant Queen was also attempting to improve its quality to Perfect Quality.
Now, apart from sleeping, the Covenant Servant Soul Ant Queen would only awaken to absorb Soul Energy when Fang Mu called.
Before the rank and quality of the Covenant Servant Soul Ant Queen were enhanced, it would not produce any more Soul Parasite Ants.
In dealing with the Town Rock Family, obviously, Fang Mu couldn’t do it without the Soul Parasite Ants.
Fang Mu prepared to thoroughly study who would be the most suitable candidate for using the Soul Parasite Ants.
Soul Parasite Ants could only assure loyalty from the controlled person; they could not guarantee the person would do their utmost for Fang Mu.
Therefore, using Soul Parasite Ants to control those at the core of the Town Rock Family’s power wasn’t a good choice for Fang Mu.
Compared to these people, Fang Mu should give the opportunity to those who were desperate to enter the core of power but were hindered and couldn’t get there.
Only by helping such people reach the core of power could they fully commit to his service and create the greatest value!
Though he was kind-hearted, Fang Mu saw no conflict between using the Soul Parasite Ants and his compassion.
Gu Che followed behind Fang Mu, feeling somewhat awkward when he saw that Fang Mu did not say anything further.
Seeing that Ke Wu and the others had tightly wound up their right wrists to control the poison, Gu Che loudly said to them,
“You four were saved by this Young Master, should you not thank him quickly?!”
Ke Wu and the others were already very grateful to Fang Mu. They didn’t dare to approach and thank him promptly because they felt they weren’t qualified to speak to Fang Mu.
Also, as servants, when their masters Gu Che and Gu Kun were present, they had no right to speak without permission.
Now that they’d been given Gu Che’s permission, they were about to express their gratitude when the young man in front of them turned around and said kindly,
“There’s no need for thanks. Someone will help you expel the poison in your body later.”
“After you’ve expelled the poison accumulated in your right wrist, remember to come up to the second floor.”
Having said that, Fang Mu continued to lead the way.
Fang Mu had three goals for doing so: firstly, he planned to comprehend the situation in the Panfeng Federation through Ke Wu and others.
Additionally, he wanted to understand why the Town Rock Family, one of the three great clans of the Panfeng Federation, ended up in such a state.
Secondly, understanding the situation from Ke Wu and others first would facilitate Fang Mu to ascertain whether the core members of the Town Rock Family were lying later on.
Thirdly, the members of the Town Rock Family knowing Fang Mu had asked Ke Wu and others first would make them hesitant about covering up some facts.
They would fear their account contradicted what Fang Mu learned from Ke Wu and others.
Once Fang Mu called Ke Wu and others to the second floor and questioned them about the situation of the Town Rock Family, and took control of the situation, Fang Mu would not let them go downstairs.
Hence, the members of the Town Rock Family won’t have any chance to collude on their testimonies.
Gu Kun was still young, and from his attitude towards the family members and coachmen, it could be seen that the Town Rock Family was not cultivating him as the successor.
As for Fang Mu calling Ke Wu and others upstairs, Gu Kun didn’t have any particular thoughts about it.
Gu Kun eagerly anticipated the family members reviving after the detoxification.
However, Gu Che’s eyebrows furrowed tightly when he heard Fang Mu’s words.
But, it was not the time for him to communicate with Ke Wu and others and instruct them on how to answer Fang Mu’s questions.
Gu Che was full of mixed feelings, his back and forehead were covered with fine beads of sweat.
He was even more anxious than when he was facing Fang Mu earlier.
