Chapter 138: Summoned

On the third day of the new year, Mo Chenxuan and Qin Wu were summoned for a meeting.

When they arrived, they found a roomful of people, including Xuanyuan Qi, General Chu, General Wei, General Qin, Master Fang, and others.

Seeing these people, Mo Chenxuan narrowed his eyes but didn’t say anything.

Instead, he squeezed Qin Wu’s hand and walked into the room.

“Good morning, leaders.” He greeted in a calm voice.

“Boy Mo, Girl Qin, sit down.” General Wei, Wei Canghao, said with a friendly expression.

However, neither Mo Chenxuan nor Qin Wu were stupid.

Even if they didn’t have their previous life memories, they were veterans in the business scene.

From this experience, they immediately realised that Wei Canghao wasn’t being friendly but was instead establishing his identity as an elder and the two as juniors.

Knowing this, Mo Chenxuan and Qin Wu silently concluded that the following meeting would be an uphill battle.

However, their expressions didn’t change, and they only nodded in gratitude.

“Thank you, General Wei.” Qin Wu said with a pleasant expression.

“Young master Mo and young miss Qin are heroes of their generation.” Master Fang, Fang Chongtian said.

’Another one trying to put us in our place.’ Qin Wu thought, her eyes narrowed into slits.

’Are they trying to remind us that we are only heroes among the young and can’t compare to their generation?’ She wondered and almost rolled her eyes.

However, she restrained herself and smiled while waiting for Mo Chenxuan to reply.

“Wu’er and I are just doing our part to contribute to everyone’s survival.” Mo Chenxuan said with an obvious emphasis on ’everyone’.

’As expected of brother Chenxuan.’ Qin Wu thought, and a trace of admiration flashed in her eyes.

The leaders were eager to remind them of their place.

However, she and Mo Chenxuan were not insignificant survivors.

First, they were the only level three superpowers in the base.

With this identity alone, they deserved the respect of not only everyone in the room but also the entire base.

After all, if a level three zombie attacked the base, they would be expected to fight at the front line.

Second, they had brought back more fuel than the army and teams combined.

This not only showed their capability but also their maturity.

Mo Chenxuan’s words were mainly for this second reason.

After all, he and Qin Wu did their best to contribute to the base’s welfare and not to enrich a few powerful leaders.

Unsurprisingly, his words didn’t sit well with most of the attendees.

If Mo Chenxuan and Qin Wu could hear their reminder, the attendees could also hear his hidden warning.

’How dare a young brat threaten us?!’ Wei Canghao angrily thought.

However, he didn’t voice his displeasure and instead turned to Fang Chongtian.

“Team leader Mo…” Fang Chongtian started, and Mo Chenxuan smiled in approval.

Seeing the smile, Fang Chongtian felt a strong anger build in his chest.

Unfortunately, the current situation was not ideal for venting his emotions.

After taking a deep breath, he continued.

“Team Legends is the source of the purified crystal cores.” He stated, and Mo Chenxuan nodded without hesitation.

After all, this was common knowledge, and he had never tried to hide it.

On one hand, purified crystal cores were a source of wealth for himself and Qin Wu, and on the other, they were a strategic resource.

With purified crystal cores, the base’s overall strength would increase, and it would have more ability to expand outward, reclaiming more living space for the human race.

Although they weren’t selfless, Mo Chenxuan and Qin Wu genuinely wished for the survival of the human race and the reclamation of more land.

For this reason, they willingly exposed the purified crystal cores, even though they knew it would attract trouble.

“I wonder when the mutated water ability user will be available to meet us?” Fang Chongtian asked, and Qin Wu almost burst into laughter.

’What an old fox?!’ She thought.

If it were anyone else, they would be pressured into producing the so-called mutated water ability user.

Unfortunately, the leaders encountered Mo Chenxuan and Qin Wu.

Not to mention there was no mutated water ability user, even if there was, the two would never be pressured to expose them.

At this time, Mo Chenxuan smiled with an indifferent expression.

“Unfortunately, that person is shy and doesn’t like the limelight.’ He said.

Hearing this, several leaders frowned, and Fang Chongtian banged the table.

“It’s good to be young and ambitious, but team leader Mo must consider the overall situation. Purified crystal cores are the basis of our revolution.” The old man shouted, and Mo Chenxuan nodded with a solemn expression.

“Master Fang is right.” He said and quickly continued.

“It’s because of this that Wu’er and I have done our best to distribute as many purified crystal cores as possible. We don’t discriminate and sell purified crystal cores to whoever needs them.”

Fang Chongtian gritted his teeth when he heard this.

Next to him, Wei Canghao was also displeased, but some of the others looked at Mo Chenxuan in appreciation.

In fact, all of them wanted to control the purified crystal cores.

Because of this, they gathered together, planning to intimidate Mo Chenxuan and Qin Wu.

Unexpectedly, the two young people had a steel backbone and could not be intimidated.

Even more unbelievable, Mo Chenxuan dared to warn them against monopolising the fuel they brought back.

Looking at the two young people, Xuanyuan Qi nodded.

’They are young, but they have the capital to negotiate with us old men.’ He thought.

A moment later, he smiled and leaned back in his seat.

“Let’s forget the mutated water ability user for the time being. Team leader Mo, name a price for the purifying water.” He said.

Mo Chenxuan nodded when he heard this.

He and Qin Wu had already considered this possibility.

In the end, they decided to sell a limited amount of space water but didn’t plan to sell the concentrated version.

Instead, they chose to dilute the space water to a point where its energy replenishing property would be considered strategically insignificant. That way, they would avoid trouble that they weren’t prepared to deal with.

Fortunately, diluting the space water didn’t affect its purifying effect.
