Dubai Magician Tower, the Sky Meeting Room...

Bright sunlight was shining upon the veil around the room. The gentle sunlight lit up the entire room.

“Chief, I believe not every country is connected by the ocean, so I don’t agree that the Asia Magic Association should take responsibility for it. Doesn’t every country have its own soldiers? I believe it’s none of our concern,” Continent Councilman Su Lu spoke up.

The Sky Meeting Room had always been used by the Asia Magic Association to hold the highest-level meetings. It was where the Councilmen would gather to discuss important matters and agree with the measures to be taken.

“Since Councilman Su Lu chose to disagree with it, we should set aside the project regarding the shoreline too.

“The teeth are exposed to the cold if the lips are gone. I hope everyone understands the situation we are in. The oceans have always been treated as common ground by the countries, yet why are only the countries located along the shoreline like us responsible for protecting the rest of the countries from the threats of the oceans? The sea monsters have always been the greatest threat to us. If Asia or even the Five Continents don’t work together, we will all pay the price eventually!” Chairman Shao Zheng rose to his feet. He was infuriated by the decision to set aside the plan.

“Chairman Shao Zheng, it’s obvious that you just want the United Forces to guard the shoreline on behalf of your country. If your country really thinks the oceans are too dangerous, you can just let other countries take over the oceans. I believe Japan, Korea, India, Singapore, and Philippines are very willing to take over your oceans,” Councilman Su Lu smiled at him.

“What do you mean by that!?” Shao Zheng snapped furiously, glaring at Su Lu.

“It depends on how you’re looking at it. Either way, I strongly disagree with the suggestion. The countries should be looking after their own shorelines. Don’t even try to tell me your ancient Chinese expression of how the teeth will be exposed when the lips are gone. This is the Asia Magic Association...” Su Lu said.

“Su Lu, we are having a meeting here. If I hear you making insinuations on purpose again, I won’t go easy on you!” Shao Zheng said to Su Lu.

“Shao Zheng, Su Lu is just joking about it. Don’t take it too seriously.”

“Humph, joking about a country’s territory? It’s fine if other people said it, but he’s a Continent Councilman. I will not tolerate it, even if you all can!” Shao Zheng snapped.

“HAHAHA, it turns out not every Chinese is timid and weak! At least I can see an unyielding spirit from you still. I apologize for what I said,” Su Lu suddenly burst out laughing and bowed slightly to apologize.

“Take your insincere apology back. Don’t think I’ll ignore what you said just because you’re pretending to be modest here. Not every Chinese is timid and weak? I seriously don’t understand why you would say that after what happened during the World College Tournament!” Shao Zheng rebuked with a chilling laugh.

China had come in first in the World College Tournament. It clearly showed how talented the younger generation in China was.

The rest of the countries in Asia had failed to achieve results worth mentioning. Shao Zheng was well aware of who was pulling the strings behind the scenes. He also knew why the plan had failed!

“It’s within our territories, so we will surely do our best to defend them. However, for those that rejected the plan, if someday your country is facing the same problem and is asking for our help, please remember the attitude you’ve shown us today...” Shao Zheng stood up and headed for the door.

He had no reason to stay any further, since the Asia Magic Association was unwilling to help.

The meeting soon came to an end. Su Lu walked to the glass-covered corridor outside the room. The corridor extended beyond the tower. It felt like one could touch the blue sky when standing in it.

He lit up a cigarette and took a huge puff. He exhaled deeply, facing the blue sky and grinned.

“Councilman, there’s an update from the Donghai Magic Association. They have failed to acquire the target; someone intervened,” A woman wearing heels over fifteen centimeters tall came over. She stood a certain distance away from Councilman Su Lu while speaking.

“The Donghai Magic Association might be taking orders from us, but they are still a bunch of Chinese. It’s not surprising how useless they are,” Su Lu replied.

“Should we ask them to withdraw then?” the assistant asked.

“No, I’m in quite a good mood today. I’ll give them another chance... oh, we’ll lend them the hounds. If they fail to return with the clues about the Totem Beast again, I’ll teach them the price they have to pay for being so useless!” Su Lu said.

“You’ve completely fallen out with Chairman Shao Zheng. Will he intervene with the Donghai Magic Association?” the female assistant said.

“He’s more concerned about the shorelines for the time being. As long as I don’t send my pets with my name on them, he won’t bother troubling me,” Su Lu answered.

“Sure, I’ll let the Donghai Magic Association know right away.”

“Say, can you imagine the expression that Shao Zheng will have when I ride their Totem Beast to a meeting?”

1“I bet he will feel very ashamed!”

“HAHAHA, he’s the kind of person that will go mad when it’s something related to the dignity of their country. Ask the people of the Research Union to pick up the pace. I’ll personally reward them if they manage to find the Totem Beast. I believe it will motivate them to do their best,” Su Lu said.

“There’s something you should know too,” the female assistant said.

“What is it?”

“The Parthenon Temple has decided to take back the herb mountains that were contracted to you before, even when we tried to offer more for them,” the assistant said. “It seems like they have noticed something fishy about the herb mountains...” she added.

He sighed. “Our relationship with the Parthenon Temple has worsened since the deaths of Saint Andi and Mellaura. Contact Izisha on my behalf. She’s an old friend of mine. I believe she can restore the mountains to us.”

The cold breeze from the ocean blew along the valley of the Shuangyang Mountain. It was biting cold when it eventually reached the Yueyang Valley.

Mu Ningxue purposely hired someone to set up a magic formation to block the wind so the place would not be as cold.

Fanxue Mountain was established at an impressive pace. It was not too difficult to build a town with Lin Junxian’s help.

Mu Ningxue had agreed to take Yu Shishi in. The woman had taken care of the Hunter Fang Panther Demons as she had promised.

As a matter of fact, Yu Shishi was not helping Mu Ningxue sincerely. She just wanted a safe place to stay while using Mo Fan, whom she had a grudge against, as her shield.

Yu Shishi claimed her own territory on Feiyue Mountain, close to the territory of the Hunter Fang Panther Demons.

Yu Shishi had to live in a city. Similar to the Blood Tribe, she was more like a human than a demon creature, yet she could not just abandon her moths. She had to provide them with a safe environment. As such, she needed a place for herself and her moths.

Yu Shishi and her moths were staying on Feiyue Mountain, the mountain that served as a natural barrier to the west of Fanxue Town.

The mountain served as a line of defense for the town. They did not even need to build watchtowers since the moths were living on it. The moths had become an impenetrable line of defense for Fanxue Town.

The moths had remarkable senses. They were extremely sensitive toward any potential danger. As soon as a demon creature entered their territory, they would immediately alert the people of the town. In the meantime, some moths would trail the demon creatures, allowing the people of Fanxue Mountain to hunt them down with ease!

The safety measures were more effective than having an entire army guarding the perimeter. As long as Yu Shishi was not thinking of betraying them, Mo Fan realized how useful the woman could be to them.

She told Mo Fan that if her moths could recover to the scale they used to be in Tongxiang, the moths could easily protect the whole town.

“If you promise the people of Fanxue Mountain won’t hurt them, they will provide you with the best defense you could ever hope for. Once I train the battle moths too, your Mages won’t even need to worry about the demon creatures. These battle moths will take all the intruders out on their own,” Yu Shishi said confidently.

“That’s the reason why you’re here, right?” Mo Fan finally realized why Yu Shishi had chosen Mu Ningxue.

A new territory was desperately in need of protection around its perimeter, and Yu Shishi was perfect for that. Yu Shishi could also ask Mu Ningxue for a place where her moths would no longer be rejected!

“As long as they don’t harm the people and can actually protect the town, I will give you my word that I will make a rule of forbidding people from hurting the moths. The Disciplinary Mages will make sure everyone is obeying it,” Mu Ningxue said.

“Don’t worry, these moths actually feed on plants, the kind that can be planted easily on the mountain,” Yu Shishi replied.

The Blue-Golden Berries were perfect for the moths. Yu Shishi had discovered how suitable the mountain was when she came to observe Liu Ru the first time. It was also the main reason why she had asked Mo Fan for help.

Mu Ningxue was planning to establish her clan here, which meant she had also found a new habitat. It consisted of a city, woods, and she could also enjoy the pleasant view of the sea as she pleased, too...

Perhaps starting over was not as bad as she first thought. It would have been perfect if she did not have to see Mo Fan’s detestable face!
