[Mo Xite]: Mr. Chu Zhou, once again, I sincerely invite you to join us. We command vast stores of information and resource networks across the Dou Qi Continent. Cooperation would benefit us both. [Mo Xite]: You possess extraordinary potential and should not limit yourself to Huaguo. We can offer support beyond your imagination, whether it be resources, Dou Qi cultivation methods, leads on joining hidden factions, or... hehe, a truly safe future. [Yanshan Jiro]: Chu Zhou-san, don't think establishing ties with the Mittel Family will keep you safe. We already know your movements and background on Blue Star. Once we find you, we will kill you. [Yanshan Jiro]: I have already secured a foothold in the Snake-People Tribe. Once I go a step further and win the favor of Her Majesty the Queen, a Peak Dou Emperor, I will immediately send troops against the Jia Ma Empire. Then we will strike on both the Dou Qi Continent and Blue Star. You will be dead for sure!
Chu Zhou sat across from Xiao Yi Xian in a private room at the Mittel Merchant Guild, enjoying an exquisite meal while keeping part of his attention on the Jia Ma Empire regional chat channel on the Firmament Ledger.
Mo Xite and Yanshan Jiro played off each other, wielding both carrot and stick. The former offered temptations and veiled threats, while the latter resorted to outright intimidation. Both were trying to make him join America.
Judging by the time, Chi Mei had already returned to the Snake-People Tribe. Chu Zhou stopped merely watching with cold indifference.
``` [Chu Zhou]: @Mo Xite, @Yanshan Jiro
[Chu Zhou]: You can drop the act now. If you survive tonight, I might consider your proposals. Tsk.
