The Ultimate Divine Class-Chapter 646 - 32: Partnership Established

"Dong."

Lu Yuan politely greeted Dong Mu.

"Get in the car first."

Dong Mu took Lu Yuan's hand and led him toward a volcano-gray luxury suspended car, chatting affectionately as they walked.

"Don't go back this time.

From now on, stay at Uncle's house, just find someone to watch over the mine, there's no need to suffer there yourself.

Uncle has a daughter about the same age as you; I'll introduce you later...."

Dong Mu's enthusiasm was beyond Lu Yuan's expectations, and his friendliness did not seem feigned.

What he said made Lu Yuan suddenly realize.

Lu Lingfeng dared to let him bring a Lu Feng to "leave home" and come to this "remote rural area" of Lilva Star; maybe it was intended for him to follow Dong Mu, and let Dong Mu take care of him all along.

Both Dong Mu's surname and appearance were typical of Old Doleling People.

He was also an aristocrat, a second-class Baron.

Perhaps these two reasons led to his connection with Lu Lingfeng.

On the way to Dong Mu Mansion, Dong Mu kept holding Lu Yuan's hand warmly, asking about his well-being, treating him completely like a beloved younger generation.

If he was his predecessor Lu Qiyuan, he might have already whole-heartedly accepted this heaven-sent family elder.

But Lu Yuan's mind was still very clear.

He remembered clearly how Dong Mu acted as a middleman, taking nine-tenths during the last acquisition of waste minerals.

This guy is definitely an old fox.

In his heart, Lu Yuan had already labeled Dong Mu.

"We've arrived."

Twenty minutes later, the floating car stopped at a manor near the suburbs of Red Diamond City.

The size and luxury of this manor far exceeded that of the Lu Family.

Inside the manor, servants and bodyguards were weaving through, and various drones patrolled overhead; Lu Yuan even saw small unmanned Mecha buzzing occasionally, making it heavily guarded indeed.

"Don't be surprised, that's just how I am.

When I'm not at my own place, I always feel insecure..."

Dong Mu explained to Lu Yuan with a cheerful smile.

Lu Yuan casually asked, "Where is Uncle Dong from?"

"Beizhen Star."

Dong Mu said with a touch of nostalgia: "A small planet, it isn't called that now, you surely don't know it.

Your father has heard about it though; he said that the Lu family's ancestral land is quite close to Beizhen Star..."

Lu Yuan nodded without asking more.

Dong Mu, however, kept talking endlessly, sharing old stories with Lu Yuan, most of which involved Lu Lingfeng.

Lu Yuan listened quietly.

The two walked all the way to the depths of the manor, into a sumptuous house resembling a castle.

As they entered, Dong Mu greeted Lu Yuan before leaving alone.

Lu Yuan and Lu Feng were led by Dong's servants, each into a luxurious lounge.

After a simple wash-up, someone knocked on the door.

Subsequently, Lu Yuan was taken to a spacious and elegant study room, where Dong Mu, dressed in a fresh set of clothes, was sitting at the reception table, quietly waiting for him.

Compared to before, Dong Mu now exuded more steadiness and elegance.

"Have a seat."

Seeing Lu Yuan enter, Dong Mu smiled and gestured for him to sit down.

Then he began brewing tea for him.

The brewed tea was served in a delicate white ceramic cup with a golden rim, showing a light reddish-brown color.

Lu Yuan lifted the cup, smelling a unique rich aroma like boiled milk; tasting it, the flavor was both sour and bitter, yet had a deeply sweet aftertaste.

"

This is Bitter Mud Tea, a specialty of Red Diamond City, made by grinding dried wild fruits into powder and brewing."

Dong Mu introduced, laughing: "The taste is somewhat strange, you might find it unfamiliar the first time you drink it, but once you drink more, you'll appreciate its merits..."

Lu Yuan nodded, took another sip, and then quietly waited for Dong Mu's next words.

"Your father contacted me and said you're mediocre in talent, frivolous in character, and difficult to discipline, asking me to take care of you.

Now it seems, he's being overly modest..."

Dong Mu looked at Lu Yuan, gently sighing: "If my family member could have half your poise and composure, I wouldn't have to worry about everything at my age."

"You flatter me too much, Uncle Dong."

Lu Yuan shook his head, listening to Dong Mu continue.

"I heard you want to acquire waste minerals?"

Dong Mu took a sip from his tea and finally got to the point.

"Yes."

Lu Yuan nodded.

"Are you planning to start a waste mineral recovery company?"

Dong Mu inquired with a smile: "I can understand that you want to achieve something after your first independent venture away from your father's control.

However, certain things ought to be thoroughly considered before proceeding; acting impulsively can easily lead to errors.."

"You're right to advise me."

Lu Yuan calmly stated: "I indeed plan to start a waste mineral processing company.

But the primary purpose of acquiring waste minerals is not that, it's... to research energy regeneration."

"Energy regeneration?"

Dong Mu frowned, not quite grasping the meaning of Lu Yuan's words.

Lu Yuan deliberately leaned slightly closer to Dong Mu, lowered his voice a bit, and said: "I have a friend who has been researching for years on how to extract Source Breath Insect Liquid from bismuth metal waste mines.

The value of Source Breath Insect extraction liquid is something Uncle Dong should be aware of...."

Dong Mu looked surprised, "Has it succeeded?"

"Not yet."

Lu Yuan shook his head, followed by saying: "However, he accidentally figured out a method to extract those materials contaminated by Source Breath Insect body fluid...

I spent a considerable sum to purchase this technology from him, and this is also the core of my next entrepreneurial venture..."
