Full-Time Magister: The Evil Emperor Descends

Tianshan Mountains, high mountain layers.

Snow-capped mountains lean against each other on a continuous stretch, with glistening white snow floating in the air, creating a vast, white, icy world.

On a vast, snowy plateau, a group of hunters set up camp, each busy with their own tasks.

Meanwhile, a little girl in a pink down jacket was skipping and hopping across the snow, completely out of place with the serious and busy hunters around her.

The little girl, wearing pink snow boots, walked lightly on the thick snow, swinging her arms back and forth, humming a light and cheerful song like the tinkling of silver bells.

As they passed groups of hunters, their large, watery eyes kept scanning their surroundings, as if searching for something.

In a hunter's group, especially in a place as dangerous as the Tianshan Mountains, the appearance of a cute little girl naturally attracted the attention and discussion of many hunters.

"Hey bro, what do you think the commander was thinking, agreeing to bring a little girl into the group? Doesn't he know we're going to Tianshan?"

"Shh! I'm telling you, you can talk about this in private, but the girl was brought by our client, the big boss's daughter. We wouldn't dare to gossip about her!"

"Brother, if she's the sugar daddy's precious daughter, why bring her along? Isn't he afraid something might happen to her?"

"Sigh, we ordinary people can't fathom the people of the great clans. Perhaps they have enough power to bring their heirs here to see the world."

"Hehe, bringing a kid to the Tianshan Mountains, I don't think anyone else does it."

"It doesn't matter. Whether that girl lives or dies in the end is none of our business. Even if she dies, it won't affect us. We just need to do what we're supposed to do."

As the saying goes, if it doesn't concern you, don't bother with it!
The little girl skipped and hopped to an open space, and immediately spotted the person she was looking for. She ran over and called out sweetly.

"father!"

Hearing the shouts, Mu Baizhou turned around and looked behind him, smiling broadly as he opened his arms and hugged the little girl who rushed towards him.

"Tingying, why didn't you stay in the tent? Why did you come all the way here?"

"It's so boring in the tent. My older sister went out too. I want to play with my dad."

The little girl hugged Mu Baizhou tightly around the waist, burying her head in his arms.

Mu Baizhou shook his head with a helpless smile upon hearing his daughter's words; he had been worried about her safety the entire journey.

He hadn't originally intended to bring his daughter, but he couldn't resist her incessant pleading and cajoling. Being a complete doting father, he figured he was strong enough and had a reliable hunter group, so he brought her along.

Now he is filled with regret, blinded by sweet words, but since he's already here, he can't just go back right away.

"Tingying, be good and stay by yourself. Daddy has some things to do. I'll play with you after I'm done, okay?"

Although she was young, the little girl was very sensible and nodded.

After watching her father leave, she pouted, kicked the snow with her toes, and listlessly found a place to sit down.

After staring blankly for a while, a sound entered my field of vision, and I was involuntarily drawn to it.

The reason was simple: the young man in front of her was just too handsome. She had never seen a man with such a beautiful face and unique temperament, and she instinctively became infatuated with him.

Then, the scene from their previous meeting happened.

Mo Xie looked at the little girl in front of him, who was shyly lowering her head like a porcelain doll, and felt a mixture of surprise and uncertainty.

"Little friend, why are you all alone here? Where are your parents?"

She has such a gentle smile and such a lovely voice. Dad, I think I might be in a relationship!
Looking at that gentle smile, the little girl blushed and timidly replied.

"My dad went out on something, big brother. My name is Mu Tingying. What's your name?"

Is Mu Tingying... the Mu Tingying I wrote about?
Mo Xie was stunned for a moment, blinked, but maintained a gentle smile on her face.

"Brother, my name is Mo Xie. Hello, Tingying."

Who cares? There are plenty of coincidences in the world; it's just a matter of chance.

He muttered to himself, subconsciously stroking the little white tiger in his arms.

With this movement, Mu Tingying noticed the white tiger's presence. Her big, watery eyes immediately sparkled, and she exclaimed in surprise.

"Wow, what an adorable kitten! Big brother, can I hold it?"

"Hmm... Of course, here you go."

Kitten... Fine, what can I say, you look harmless.

He glanced at the little white tiger in his arms with amusement and handed it over.

"So cute, I love it!"

Seeing the little white tiger sleeping so adorably, and stroking its fluffy white fur, Mu Tingying happily hugged it to her arms, pressing her face against itss repeatedly. Feeling a sense of suffocation, the little white tiger was forced to wake up and struggled slightly.

After rubbing against her for a while, Mu Tingying glanced at the little white tiger in her arms, then looked up at Mo Xie in front of her and asked in a pitiful tone.

"Big brother, I really like this kitten. Can you give it to me?"

Mo Xie was slightly taken aback, looked at the pleading gaze, and then revealed a gentle smile.

"No."

Mu Tingying's smile immediately faded, and she pouted her cherry lips.

She's always had whatever she wants, she's never encountered anything like this before, she's so angry!
"Okay, even though I can't give it to you, it's still okay for it to keep you company."

"Ok!"

Mo Xie patted Mu Tingying's head and thought to himself as he looked at her with the personality of a little girl.

"It's not that annoying at all. It's actually quite likable now!"

At this moment, Mu Baizhou walked over, carrying a bowl of meat soup and some food.

"Come on, Xiao Xie, have something to eat to fill your stomach."

"Thank you, Uncle Mu. I haven't eaten anything lately."

Mo Xie looked flattered and carefully accepted the food, then began to eat it with great relish.

Mu Baizhou smiled, looked at his daughter beside him, and said.

"Xiao Xie, why don't you stay with my daughter for now? She's quite young, so please be patient with her and play with her."

"Uncle Mu, you flatter me. It is only right that I take you in, give you food, and help you take care of your daughter."

Mo Xie swallowed the food in her mouth, took a sip of the hot meat soup, and said earnestly.

"Alright, I'm relieved to hear that... Could your little tiger be a cub of the Tianshan Demon Tiger?"

With a smile and a nod, Mu Baizhou glanced at the little white tiger in his daughter's arms, narrowed his eyes, and asked with a mysterious expression.

"How could that be? I was just starting out and wanted to awaken the Summoning ability. It was a contracted beast that my elders had prepared for me beforehand. It was just an ice-attribute tiger-type demon."

"If it were really a cub of the Tianshan Demon Tiger, I would be hiding it away, let alone openly holding it in my arms."

Seeing Mo Xie's open and honest expression, Mu Baizhou waved his hand and laughed.

"Haha, that's true. You get some rest. I have things to do, so I'll be going now."

"Okay, Uncle Mu, take care."

After Mu Baizhou left, a man with a scar near his eye sat down, threw a piece of firewood into the fire, and said calmly.

"Brother Rat, that kid said he's not a cub of the Heavenly Mountain Demon Tiger, do you believe him?"

A man with shifty eyes took a drag of his cigarette, exhaled a smoke ring, and slowly asked.

"Is this important?"

"Of course it's important!"

The scarred man became excited, glanced at the little white tiger in Mu Tingying's hand in the distance, and said in a low voice.

"If it really is the cub of the Heavenly Mountain Demon Tiger, we'll be set for life! We can put it up at the auction and it'll fetch an insane price in no time!"

"Hehe, you're usually so clumsy, but you become very clever when it comes to things like this."

The rat-man grinned, but his smile was stiff, and there was no hint of amusement in his eyes.

"Whether that tiger cub is the Tianshan Demon Tiger or not is not important. We'll know once we get our hands on it. If it's not, we won't lose anything; if it is, we'll make a killing."

“I didn’t expect Brother Rat to think the same way as me. So what should we do next? That kid is always hanging out with the employer’s daughter.”

Upon hearing the scarred man's words, the rat man glanced at him disdainfully and sneered.

"Are you stupid? There will always be times when you're alone. A corpse is the best way to keep a secret. Anyway, he's just an ordinary person who was kindly taken in. I believe the employer won't care too much about a dead person."

"Hehe, Brother Rat is so smart. I'll take a small share of the money we make, you can keep the big one, and you can do whatever you want with that pretty boy."

"That's quite clever."

"Hehehe!" (End of Chapter)
