"Fellow Daoist Wen, I sincerely apologize. My abilities are limited, and I cannot spare more energy on earning Spirit Stones. With things as they are now, I'm already content."
"Furthermore, I have been acquainted with Senior Instrument Spirit for many years. I have received countless favors from him, and my ties to the Commerce Association run deep. It would not be appropriate to sever them hastily."
"As such, I currently have no plans to leave the Sea Tower Chamber of Commerce. If a suitable opportunity arises, I will consider cooperating with the Taiyi Alliance."
Lu Xuan paused for a moment, then spoke earnestly.
"What a pity. Cultivators like Friend Lu, skilled in logistics and at the Mid-stage Nascent Soul level, are incredibly rare."
The elder shook his head, his expression tinged with regret.
Faced with Lu Xuan's refusal, he could only accept it reluctantly.
