Liu Xi was operating a puppet that was standing in for Fang Mu, steeping tea leaves.
The cup of tea was being prepared for the imminent arrival of Float Yue Grandmaster.
Wang Mi and Xu Fengnian had already informed Fang Mu about the Float Yue Grandmaster's initiative to visit.
Fang Mu felt pleasantly surprised by this.
His own initiative to court the Float Yue Grandmaster and the Grandmaster's initiative to seek him out were two different matters.
In the eyes of others, Master Qixing, the Saint Creator, was held in high esteem, possessing both resources and connections.
However, there were only six or seven Grandmaster Creators who actually had dealings with Qixing at present.
Moreover, a large portion of the Grandmaster Creators had only trading relationships with Qixing and could not be fully controlled.
The only ones truly under his control were Yi Han and Ning Hongshu, the two Grandmaster Creators.
