The Magic Association in the capital...

A man in uniform was hurriedly making his way to a retro-decorated room.

A man in a military coat with the badge of a chief in front of his chest was sitting inside. The man in uniform was startled. He immediately saluted and said, “Pardon me, chief, I didn’t know you were here, too!”

The man in a military jacket had a black beard. He turned around and smiled, “Is there something urgent you want to discuss with Xiao Shao (Shao Zheng)? Should I excuse myself first?”

“No, there’s nothing urgent, it’s nothing important either. It’s just something the Chairman has asked me to keep an eye on, so...” the secretary seemed a little reserved.

He had just been promoted to a secretary. He never thought he would stumble into the man he admired the most today, not to mention he was standing so close to him.

The man before him was a real legend!

“Just tell us what it is then. We were just having a casual chat here,” Chairman Shao Zheng said.

“Well, after you asked me to keep an eye on what Su Lu is up to, I’ve managed to learn that he seems to be ordering the people of the Donghai Magic Association to handle something for him. Just a moment ago, someone was using Mr. Song Qiming’s credentials to log into the database and query about who’s in charge of the Donghai Magic Association. I have already asked Mr. Song Qiming and Vice Elder Leng Qing. They told me that it might have something to do with Mo Fan. Around yesterday, one of Su Lu’s men called Houndman seems to have shown up at Fanxue Mountain. I believe it ended up with an intense battle between them. It likely has something to do with the Totem Beast that Su Lu is searching for,” the young secretary said.

“So, it’s something to do with Mo Fan again!” the military chief smiled.

“It looks like he’s starting to contact the Totem Beasts. Speaking of which, he’s surprisingly destined with the Totem Beasts,” Shao Zheng said.

“Well, he doesn’t have much going on at the moment. He didn’t let me down after I put him on the national team, either. He managed to earn lots of glory for our country. If you still haven’t found a suitable candidate to take Jiang Shaojun’s role, maybe we can consider leaving the Totem Beasts to Mo Fan,” the military chief proposed.

“Him?” Shao Zheng pondered for a moment and said, “That’s not a bad suggestion. He’s very close to the Black Totem Snake, and he’s somehow involved with the Totem Beast that Su Lu is targeting, too. He might actually surprise us if we let him handle the Totem Beasts.”

“Let him handle it. The kid might be a little wild, but he’s been able to bring us lots of surprises so far. The threat along the coastline that you mentioned is surely going to give us a deadly blow, but if we can really awaken the ancient Totem Beasts, they might be the key to resolving the danger,” the military chief said.

“If you say so. I guess I’ll pay a visit to Shanghai; it’s better to talk to him in person,” Shao Zheng said.

“Mmm, sounds good. The Totem Beasts are one of our options. We do need someone reliable to handle it,” the military chief said.

“Do you want to meet him instead? You seem to be quite fond of him,” Shao Zheng asked.

“Forget it, I wasn’t paying much attention when Zhan Kong mentioned him in the first place, but he just kept giving me surprises after that... Poor Zhan Kong chose the path of no return, but he did recommend an impressive kid to me,” the military chief replied.

“Your student Zhan Kong is very impressive, too. Without him, the Ancient Capital would be razed to the ground by now. You should be very proud of him,” Shao Zheng said.

“Yeah, he has always been my favorite student. I guess I’ll be leaving the student of my student, Mo Fan, in your hands for now,” the military chief answered.

“Don’t you worry, I’ll make sure to use him as much as I can!”

“HAHA! Whatever you say! If he really can help with the Totem Beasts, I will be very impressed and pleased!” the military chief laughed.

The Pearl Institute...

Mo Fan set up an appointment with Professor Shi to learn more about the Moon Moth Phoenix.

He decided to meet the man at a cafe, but he was surprised to see another man as he walked in. He knew who the man was, as it was someone that he greatly respected!

“Chairman, why are you here?” Mo Fan was a little surprised.

For some reason, Mo Fan could sense that Chairman Shao Zheng was looking at him in a weird way. He felt like he was in some kind of trouble.

“I heard you’re trying to learn about a Totem Beast?” Chairman Shao Zheng asked with a smile.

“Ugh... I’m just trying to learn more about the Black Totem Snake. I happened to stumble into another Totem Beast too, and it’s pretty urgent. Chairman, since you’re here, I can just make it clear. Can you ask the people of the Donghai Magic Association to leave? If they keep coming to trouble me, I’m afraid I might overstep some boundaries,” Mo Fan replied quickly.

“The Donghai Magic Association isn’t under my jurisdiction. It’s actually under one of my sworn enemies, and I believe you already know who he is?” Shao Zheng said.

“Continent Councilman Su Lu?” Mo Fan guessed.

Shao Zheng nodded slightly.

“Well, Mr. Chairman, I don’t know if I’m imagining it, but why do I keep feeling you have something to say to me, something that is strenuous and unrewarding,” Mo Fan ventured.

Professor Shi stared at Mo Fan and snapped, “Is that how you are supposed to talk to the Chairman!?”

“The kid is right,” Shao Zheng smiled and continued, “I’ve come to discuss something very important with you.”

“Chairman, I’m just an Advanced Mage. Doesn’t it feel weird that someone who’s so close to being a Forbidden Mage like you is asking me for a favor?” Mo Fan had to ask.

“Someone recommended you to me, and I also believe there’s no one more suitable than you to take the job,” Shao Zheng said.

“Which assh*** recommended me?” Mo Fan said.

Shao Zheng burst out laughing and said, “I bet you’re the only one that dares call him an assh***! Have you forgotten who put you on the national team?”

“Oh, it’s him. Who exactly is he? Why hasn’t he met me yet?” Mo Fan said.

“Maybe he thinks it isn’t the right time yet. Besides, you’ve been cultivating and growing on your own all this time. He doesn’t want to intervene too much. This way, you’re able to surprise us all the time,” Shao Zheng said.

“That man really likes to put up a mannered act. By the way, Chairman, did you really come here despite your busy schedule to ask me a favor?” Mo Fan said.

“Yes, and it’s very important. It might concern the safety of our country for a long time,” Shao Zheng confirmed.
