Full-Time Magister: The Evil Emperor Descends

Jiang Ya and Lin Jiayu left; they had to handle Chen Xi's aftermath.

Tang Yue also left; she had a small team to manage and didn't have much free time.

As for Mo Xie, he planned to visit his injured younger brother and let his family know he was safe.

He was indifferent to the issue of his identity being exposed, since it wouldn't affect his normal life anyway; it just meant he would need to wear an alias when interacting with people.

Having found the temporary ward provided by the military, Mo Xie went inside and discovered that there were quite a few people in the room.

"Brother Moye, you're back!"

As soon as Ye Xinxia saw Mo Xie enter, all the worries on her face disappeared, as if the sun had come out after the rain.

"Yes, I'm sorry to have worried you."

Mo Xie smiled apologetically and reached out to pat her head.

"Eee-woo!"

Little Whitey, who had just woken up, opened its big eyes, let out a cute cry, and jumped onto Ye Xinxia's lap.

"Little Bai was great! You successfully brought back Brother Mo Xie. Mission accomplished!"

Ye Xinxia lifted Xiaobai up with both hands and laughed, and Xiaobai responded in kind.

Mo Xie smiled faintly and looked around the ward.

Mo Fan was lying on the hospital bed with his eyes closed, in a state of unconsciousness.

Mu Bai and Zhao Kunsan were also in the ward, having come to visit Mo Fan as well.

Zhou Min sat by the hospital bed, looking at her haggard face, as if she had been keeping vigil all night.

To Mo Xie's surprise, Guo Caitang was also there, and she looked to be in poor condition.

Mo Xie looked at the unconscious Mo Fan and asked.

How is Xiao Fan doing?

"There was a claw mark on his abdomen, and he lost consciousness due to excessive bleeding. Fortunately, he was rescued in time, otherwise... Anyway, there's nothing too serious. He'll be fine after a good night's sleep."

Mu Bai sighed helplessly and said.

Mo Xie nodded, finally relieved.

His brother is very lucky; he won't die so easily.

At this moment, Guo Caitang, who had been silent all along, stood up, walked to Mo Xie, and bowed deeply.

"I'm sorry, it's all because you saved me that Mo Fan got so badly injured. If you need anything from me, just let me know, I won't refuse!"

She had already apologized to Mo Fan's parents, and Ye Xinxia had done the same; now all that was missing was Mo Xie.

Mo Fan saved her, so it's only natural that she would give anything in return.

Mo Xie silently watched Guo Caitang, and after a while, helped her up.

“There’s no need for that. Since my brother chose to risk his life to save you, he has to take responsibility for what he did. I won’t blame you.”

"Can……"

Guo Caitang wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Mo Xie.

"Alright, you should all go and rest. You've worked hard... Xiaomin, go get some sleep. Xiaofan wouldn't want to see you like this."

Zhou Min glanced at Mo Fan on the hospital bed, hesitated for a moment, and then nodded.

Guo Caitang gritted her teeth, walked up to Zhou Min, and said.

“Zhou Min…right, can we talk alone? It won’t take up too much of your time…it’s my request, please.”

Looking at Guo Caitang with her head down, Zhou Min nodded expressionlessly, also wanting to have a good talk with this woman.

Leaving the crowd in silence, the two left in an awkward atmosphere.

Mo Xie sighed. He couldn't say anything about his brother's feelings, and could only pray that Xiao Fan's fate would be better.

"Dong dong!"

There was a knock on the door, and a military magesman pushed the door open and walked in, saying...

"Mo Xie, Boss Zhan Kong wants you to come over."

"Ok."

Mu Bai surveyed the situation and then spoke.

"If nothing happens, we'll leave first."

"Okay, I'll come find you later."

Leaving the ward, Mu Bai wandered aimlessly within the safety barrier. Looking at the empty eyes of the people around him, he couldn't help but feel lost.

The once thriving city of Bocheng is gone just like that. It was his hometown where he grew up, so naturally he felt a pang of sadness.

Fortunately, my family is all around me, so this is probably the best possible outcome...

"Mu Bai, what should I do next?"

Zhao Kunsan hung his head, looking bewildered, and asked.

"I don't know, let's see..." Mu Bai shook his head, and suddenly saw a figure in his peripheral vision, which startled him.

He could never mistake that figure!
Leaving behind a bewildered Zhao Kunsan, Mu Bai strode forward and desperately pushed his way into the crowd.

Squeezing into the crowd, I couldn't find the figure; perhaps it was hidden by the crowd.

"Mu Bai, what happened to you just now?"

Zhao Kunsan ran over, panting heavily, and asked.

"It's nothing, let's go back. Maybe I saw it wrong..."

Mu Bai stared ahead, never before had he felt such a strong urge to see someone.

Sister, is it really you...?

——·——

After walking up the winding stairs for a long time, we finally reached the observation deck at the top.

Zhan Kong sat at the very edge, gazing at the entire landscape of Bo City.

Hearing footsteps behind him, he didn't turn around and said in a calm tone.

"You're here. Have a seat. I'm finally relieved to see you return to the safety barrier alive."

Mo Xie walked straight to Zhan Kong's side, sat down, and looked ahead.

The sky was azure, and the warm sunshine shone on Bocheng, as if dispelling the gloom in people's hearts.

Neither of them spoke, silently gazing into the distance.

After a long while, Zhan Kong spoke first.

"The notice from above has been issued. Bo City will begin reconstruction tomorrow. The people of Bo City can still live here, but a military fortress will be built on this site."

"Hmm, I can probably guess."

"You don't need to worry about the college entrance examination. The senior high school students in Bocheng will be sent to the neighboring city to take the exam. You will still be able to go to university this year."

Upon hearing this, Mo Xie raised an eyebrow and said with a smile.

"That's very thoughtful. I thought I wouldn't be able to go to university until next year."

"By the way, I heard from my men that the Earthly Holy Spring is on you?"

"Well, what happened?"

"It's nothing, it's yours."

"You gave it to me?!"

Seeing Mo Xie's surprised and puzzled expression, Zhan Kong chuckled and explained.

"You are the biggest contributor to the fact that Bo City suffered so few casualties in the disaster. In view of your outstanding performance, the Bo City leadership has unanimously decided to give you the Earthly Sacred Spring. Anyway, it won't be needed for many years, so we might as well give it to you."

Mo Xie blinked, surprised to find that he had obtained the Earthly Sacred Spring; it was a pleasant surprise.

Zhan Kong took out something resembling a token from his pocket, rubbed it in his hand for a moment, a flash of memory crossed his eyes, then he concealed it and handed it over.

"Here, take it."

"what is this?"

Mo Xie took the token with a puzzled look. The token was made of an iron material and had an ancient style. The only unique feature was that the character "祖" (ancestor) was engraved on the token.

"This token is my proof of belonging to the Zu family. Having it means I have many privileges. If I am bullied by the children of aristocratic families when I go to university, I can just take out the token and all the aristocratic families in the country will have to give the Zu family some face."

Zhan Kong smiled and said with a hint of nostalgia, his tone then filled with apology.

"As your mentor, I haven't given you anything good, which is really incompetent of me. This is the best thing I can offer you right now."

"I won't let anyone bully me... But since you've given me something, I'll accept the token without hesitation."

Mo Xie said this, but she was actually quite touched.

Although this incompetent master never provided me with any cultivation resources, he taught me many principles that cannot be measured in money.

He fiddled with the token for a moment, then put it into his spatial ring.

"With your grades, you should be able to get into one of the top universities in the country. Have you decided where you want to go?"

"me……"

Mo Xie was taken aback, and the image of that cheerful and lively figure involuntarily surfaced in her mind.

"I've decided to go to Mingzhu University."

After descending the watchtower, Mo Xie planned to go find his father and Aunt Wen, but suddenly he stopped and turned to look at the roof of a house below.

However, there was nothing on the roof.

Strange, there was definitely a gaze there just now. Could it be that I sensed something wrong?

On the roof of another house, a graceful and incredibly beautiful figure stood there.

Seeing Mo Xie's puzzled look, she couldn't help but smile and let out a clear, melodious laugh.

"Little Xie, long time no see..." (End of Chapter)
