Full-Time Mage: Starting from Obtaining the Mysterious Ancient Tree

Chapter 427 Tracking
"It's not that I'm stammering, it's just that the person who did this has a very powerful backer. When I tried to investigate with a little bit of my own methods, I was immediately warned by someone else. What I didn't expect was that the mastermind was actually..." Jiang Yu said helplessly.

Upon learning that it was Su Lu who had done it, Jiang Yu lost all temper.

Compared to Fang Yu and the others, he understood the status of such people much better.

After all, he certainly knew a lot about some important figures.

Because of their considerable wealth, the Zhao family is able to obtain information about many things.

The world has always been quite complex.

Just like people in this world, not everyone is born evil.

It wasn't anyone in particular, but he was genuinely a good person.

All sorts of experiences, all sorts of things that happened, and the convenience of power.

Many glamorous international celebrities were not clean before they reached their positions.

Of course, even in the presence of malignant tumors, there are also some upright and country-loving leaders like Shao Zheng.

If everyone were like Su Lu, how could the human race have survived to this day?

"Let's talk about this later. I don't think we can find any information about Su Lu, but we shouldn't have any problem finding the executioner. We'll find him and take him out." Fang Yu waved his hand, not wanting to discuss this anymore.

These discussions are, to put it mildly, completely meaningless.

As an adult, one should accept many unavoidable things in reality.

"That's true. To put it bluntly, we're just living a little more comfortably than ordinary people, so why make trouble for ourselves?"

Zhao Manyan leaned back and beckoned a few young ladies over to rub his head. Then he looked at Jiang Yu and said, "Jiang Yu, have you been having a lot of fun lately? You look like you've lost a lot of weight."

“I also think you look like you’ve been completely drained,” Mo Fan agreed.

“Brother, you’re not getting any younger. Don’t just think about having fun outside. It’s time to settle down and start a family,” Fang Yu said.

Jiang Yu's lips twitched slightly!

They're all clearly scoundrels, so why are they now lecturing me like this?

“I’ve been investigating these things lately!” Jiang Yu retorted.

"Look at you, you're a grown man, what's there to be embarrassed about? Men, don't they all enjoy that kind of thing?" Zhao Manyan said with a smile.

"I……"

Jiang Yu wanted to explain further.

After all, besides Fang Yu, Zhao Manyan, and Mo Fan, there is also Mu Bai here.

He seemed a little shy because he was still somewhat unfamiliar with the place.

"Don't worry, this brother may be a bit unfamiliar to you, but he's actually just like you, a bit of a closet pervert. He says what he thinks, so there's no need to take it personally," Mo Fan said.

Mu Bai felt like he'd been shot even though he was lying down!

However, Zhao Manyan gave him no chance to argue and continued, "Exactly, you people have such a tiring life. It's so much better to be like me, I like what I like and I never hide it."

"..."

Mo Fan and Zhao Manyan kept taking turns criticizing Jiang Yu and Mu Bai.

In the end, Mo Fan was also dragged into the mess.

After all, he's all talk; when the time comes, he won't actually do it.

He's the kind of guy who's physically devoted, flirts without reciprocating, and has a wildly promiscuous heart.

After a long-awaited reunion and some casual chatting, it was already dusk before they knew it. They had dinner together and then headed back to the hotel.

On the way back, Jiang Yu asked, "How do you plan to find information about this executioner?"

“I’ve contacted someone, and she will let us know,” Fang Yu replied.

"Huh?" Jiang Yu asked in confusion. Who would get involved in something so life-threatening?
Mu Ningxue was also very curious, but Fang Yu didn't seem inclined to say anything.

……

As night falls, the lights beneath the Parthenon gradually go out. At this time of year, a bright, cool moon always hangs in the sky above Mount Goddess. The silvery moonlight envelops the entire mountain, making the already graceful peak even more ethereal.

At the foot of the mountain, behind a small hill, there is a very simple wooden house near the mountain stream. On the eaves of the wooden house, a man dressed in pure white clothes sits there, looking up at the moonlit Goddess Peak, his face showing a bit of melancholy and sorrow.

"Da da da……"

A few light footsteps echoed along the path in the woods. The man in white on the rooftop stared intently at the way they had come, his grey-blue eyes shining brightly in the night.

"What are you doing here?" the man in pure white asked the woman who had just returned and rushed over.

"Can't I just come and visit you? After all, you're my brother!" the woman who approached said.

"Just say what's on your mind," the man said.

"Have you seen her, Norman?" Asahi asked.

This man was Wen Tai's adopted son, who was also the brother of his adopted daughter, Asa Xinya.

Norman held absolute authority within the entire Knights' Hall, surpassing even Heron in prestige.

“Who?” Norman asked.

“You’re asking a question you already know the answer to. Her identity has already been revealed. I think one of the reasons you came back this time is to see this sister you’ve never met before, right?” Asaxinya said.

“I will see you if you want to. You don’t need to come all this way to me,” Norman said impatiently.

“Why do you look so disappointed in me? We siblings haven’t seen each other for many years. We were adopted by our godfather together and were like family,” Asa Xinya said.

"You know perfectly well what you've done," Norman scoffed.

"Ha, I also need to survive in this treacherous place. When I need you to stand up for me, you are constantly sinking into despair all over the world. What do you expect me to do? Uphold what you and my godfather taught me? If that were the case, I would have been devoured long ago, leaving not even bones behind." Asa Xinya's voice rose a few decibels, and her eyes turned cold.

Soon, Norman asked, "Who is it?"

“Su Lu, who commands countless powerful figures, is someone even Yin Zhisha wouldn’t dare to provoke easily,” Asha Xinya said.

The Parthenon split, a new goddess was not elected, and she did not control the divine soul, so it cannot be compared with the Magic Associations of the Five Continents.

“Austin, with its imperial authority, is beyond the reach of even Sue,” Norman questioned.

“They found a way to weaken Austin,” Asha explained.

"Su Lu will make her move in the next few days. If you want to do something, you'd better prepare as soon as possible." After saying this, Asha Xinya turned and left.

As for what Norman will choose, that's none of her business.

……

The next morning.

"Fang Yu, who exactly are you looking for information from? Why haven't you come over yet?" Mo Fan said impatiently.

“Yes, we can’t just sit here and wait,” Zhao Manyan said in support.

"How could you possibly find information about the mastermind so easily?" Fang Yu retorted.

He was actually quite puzzled as well.

Asa Xinya's professional skills have declined!
Mo Fan then said, "We can't just sit here and do nothing."

“Jiang Yu is also working hard,” Fang Yu indicated.

Just then, as the group was talking, there was a knock on the door.

"Who?" Fang Yu asked.

"Room service, sir. Didn't you ask me to serve you?" A seductive, alluring voice drifted in from outside the door.

Upon hearing the sound, Fang Yu was overjoyed; they had finally arrived.

As for the people present, they all turned their attention to Fang Yu, their eyes filled with gossip.

"What are you looking at? It's Asa Xinya," Fang Yu explained to the people behind him as he opened the door.

As soon as I opened the door, I saw Asa Xinya standing there with a pretty smile on her face!
"I never expected that Lord Lin would still remember my voice!" Asa Xinya said sweetly.

However, before he could finish speaking, Asa Xinya poked her head into the room and walked in without waiting for Fang Yu's permission, not treating herself as an outsider at all.

"There are quite a few people!"

"Let's get down to business. Any news?"

Asa Xinya was a little puzzled by this. Fang Yu had passed on Su Lu's information to her, so why was she asking for information through her?

“I know a bit about Su Lu, but I don’t know much about the people who work for him,” Fang Yu explained, sensing Asha Ruya’s questioning gaze.

"Are you planning to get involved in this?" Asha'ruya asked seriously.

"We just want to kill the executioner. As for Su Lu, we don't have the strength to cause him trouble, nor are we foolish enough to invite trouble." Fang Yu shook his head.

Upon hearing this, Asha Xinya nodded. She was worried that these people would be stubborn and act recklessly!
Then, she recounted the story of the person who worked specifically for Su Lu; it was an international criminal organization.

Even a mere executioner had such a background. Only after learning about this did they realize just how terrifying the power of those in power truly was!
Then, Asa Xinya told the Silver Jewelry Association President Shaba Miao the exact location.

“Now that we know about him, let’s go find him. Every minute that a person like him lives is a pollution to society!” Mo Fan said.

Everyone agreed!

The group pretended to be ordinary tourists and strolled around the Blue Twilight Mountains north of Athens.

According to the information we have, the exact location of the Silver Jewelry Association President, Shaba Miu, is here.

Blue Twilight Mountain, north of Athens, is an ecological attraction with few buildings. The entire mountain resembles a natural park, filled with many rare and beautiful trees. The colorful flowerbeds and neatly trimmed shrubs prevent it from looking as chaotic as a natural forest.

A retro-style sightseeing train has been built around Blue Dusk Mountain. However, since the most brilliant and blooming season has passed, most tourists have begun to leave and wait for the beautiful scenery next year, so there are far fewer tourists on Blue Dusk Mountain.

Although Fang Yu and his group weren't there to see anything, they still seemed quite relaxed.

At this moment, Bashamu handed the heart-refining artifact in his hand to a powerful shadow mage, and then looked at Fang Yu and Mu Ningxue who were walking behind him.

"What, you two little brats are the only ones sent? Does the Athens Magic Association really not value Verdun Twilight Flower?" Bashamu was extremely arrogant, knowing full well that the people from the Magic Association would arrive soon but choosing not to leave.

“You’ve misunderstood. We’re here to take your life,” Fang Yu said.

"Oh?"

Upon hearing this, Bashamu raised an eyebrow, finding it somewhat amusing, but his eyes quickly fell upon Mu Ningxue. Mu Ningxue's stunning appearance and Ice Saint aura immediately captivated Bashamu.

"They're fucking courting death."

Upon seeing this, Fang Yu instantly unleashed his ice domain!
In an instant, thick snow enveloped the area.

Bashamuu, frozen in the ice and snow, was stunned!

"Who are you?" Bashamu asked in shock. Fang Yu's strength was beyond his expectations!

"I already told you, I'm the one who'll take your life!" Fang Yu said, taking a step closer.

Basamu immediately unleashed his full power, sending frost descending and making the air incredibly cold. The frost particles looked like icy stardust falling from the sky, continuously descending and gradually forming a frost domain around Basamu. But the moment Fang Yu approached, his domain was shattered.

"This……"

His domain was broken, and he was filled with disbelief.

Fang Yu fell silent. The next moment, the frozen snow and ice in the sky exploded instantly, turning into countless tiny ice crystals.

"Sizzle," "Sizzle"...

The ice and snow burst forth, cascading down, their endless scales shimmering, piercing through Bashamu and turning him into a sieve.

Just one blow.

The supreme mage has fallen.

They didn't even have the chance to resist.

When he saw Bashamu die like that, even the shadow mage in the shadows was stunned!
It was so outrageous that even he couldn't see clearly how Fang Yu made his move.

This kind of strength is truly terrifying!
He immediately fled.

Fang Yu actually knew that there was another shadow mage here, and that the other party's cultivation level was naturally higher than his, but it was not impossible to kill him.

However, he only did this to give Mu Ningxue peace of mind; otherwise, he wouldn't have gotten involved in this matter.

Because of the commotion, Mo Fan and the others quickly arrived.

But when they arrived and saw the dead person, they were all stunned.
