Full-Time Magister: The Evil Emperor Descends

The Middle East, Arabia, Dubai.

The brown desert exudes an aura of boundless despair, dry and scorching, yet turning cold and biting as night falls.

What's precious in the desert is an oasis, but even more precious is a bustling, luxurious, and glittering fashion metropolis!

They may lack greenery, yet they can be covered in gold. Ancient Arabia was always yearned for this: hills of gold, flowing gold, needing no lush greenery to set them off, they were just as vibrant!
A golden world, a silver city, shimmering with the desires in people's hearts.

The Asian Magic Association stands here, its towering silver spire resembling a sharp ancient sword piercing the azure sky. A flock of patrolling black desert eagles forms an orderly aerial formation, hovering in the sky near the silver tower.

Dubai is a city with many rules, yet few restrictions.

Unlike most capital cities in China, flying is allowed here. Some powerful figures ride tamed demons or summoned beasts and fly freely in the sky.

No matter how amazing your ride is, you can fly freely over Dubai, making everyone below envious and admiring.

Once you have a high enough position, you will enjoy the utmost respect here. You don't need to pretend to be humble and polite to ordinary people, and you can freely and recklessly show your disdain.

Asian Magic Association, Dubai Wizard Tower.

Each headquarters of the Magic Association is located in the most prosperous city, atop the tallest building tower.

The towering top, almost reaching the sky, serves as a constant reminder to every magician lost in the sea of ​​people that cultivation is endless, and you will never reach the summit...

As the morning light passes over the spire of the Tower of Asia, it releases the most dazzling and holy light!

This is the Asian Magic Association, an existence even more majestic than the Pearl Mage Tower. Standing atop the tower are not only top-level powerhouses, but also human leaders whose mere stomp can shake the entire Asia.

On the 120th floor was a white conference room with a somewhat sacred atmosphere. A group of Asian people were sitting around a round table in the conference room, and the leader was an old man with a white beard and hair.

The conference room was filled with officials from various countries, who seemed to be discussing something.

The elderly man at the head of the group was none other than Zu Huanyao, who was very successful internationally and held immense power as a member of the Asian Magic Association.

Moreover, he was on very good terms with another councilor, Su Lu, and the two of them were second only to the president of the Asian Magic Association.

The Zu family's strength is comparable to that of the Mu family, but the Zu family has one advantage: its international influence.

The Zu family mainly possesses a vast network of connections and resources internationally, and their presence can be seen in many international organizations, wielding immense power.

Of course, there are also many people in the country who hold important positions. One of the more key people who is being promoted to the leadership level is Zu Huiyin, who is the Speaker's secretary.

To be successful internationally, one must also have sufficient power domestically in order to fully connect domestic and international communication channels.

After the meeting ended and Zu Huanyao saw everyone out of the meeting room, he sat back down in his original seat and carefully looked through the stacks of documents on the table.

Just a few minutes later, the thick door to the conference room was pushed open, and a man stepped in.

The man had some European features; he was tall and muscular, with sharp facial features, a flat forehead, and a high nose. He possessed the handsome features of a man from the Middle East, as well as the heroic spirit of a man from Europe and America.

He had thick eyebrows, sharp features, and bright eyes. He was probably not even thirty years old, but he exuded the maturity and authority of someone in their fifties, with a calm and experienced demeanor.

Zu Huanyao didn't look up, continuing to browse the contents of the document, before speaking.

"Xiang Tian, ​​why didn't you stay in Europe? What are you doing in Dubai?"

The man who entered the conference room was Zu Xiangtian. He turned around, closed the conference room door, sat down next to Zu Huanyao, and asked.

"Third Grandfather, who was the person who appeared at the Mu family's collateral branch home before, possessing the Ancestral Token?"

Upon hearing this, Zu Huanyao paused in his flipping through the documents, then continued flipping through them, speaking as if nothing had happened.

"do not know."

"do not know?"

Zu Xiangtian was stunned for a moment, then looked at his third grandfather in disbelief and asked in astonishment.

"Third...Third Grandfather, why don't you explain to the Mu family that we have no reason to take the blame, and we have no reason to be enemies with the Mu family?" Upon hearing this, Zu Huanyao looked away from the documents, raised his head to look at Zu Xiangtian, and spoke with an air of domineering arrogance.

"Xiang Tian, ​​let me tell you, even if we offend the Mu family, our Zu family will not be afraid at all!"

"Third Grandfather, that's not the point..."

Upon hearing these words, Zu Xiangtian felt a surge of pride—the pride of being born into the Zu family!

He sighed and asked again.

"By the way, Third Grandfather, what exactly is the deal with Chen Xi? Why is our Zu family helping Chen Xi for no reason?"

Upon hearing this, Zu Huanyao closed the document, stood up, and went to the large floor-to-ceiling window. He looked down at the magnificent city where gold and silver intertwined. From this perspective, the people walking down looked like a group of ants.

Then, his gaze deepened slightly, and he spoke in a low, somber tone.

"You don't need to ask me any more questions about this. I have my own plans."

"Third Grandfather, I've finally gained some status in the Zu family, so I should know some things. You can't just keep me from everything like before!"

Seeing that his third grandfather was unwilling to speak, Zu Xiangtian's face showed a hint of resentment, and he said defiantly.

"While you have indeed grown a lot, don't think that's all."

Zu Huanyao turned his head, glared at Zu Xiangtian, and then said.

"Hmph, don't think I don't know you're close to Su Lu's faction. Mr. Su Lu is indeed a capable person, but his character is very strange, even we older generation can't figure him out."

"But one thing is for sure: he definitely has the ability to turn his back on people without hesitation. I can't control who you choose to follow, but you'd better watch what you do, understand?"

Hearing these reprimands, Zu Xiangtian became impatient and complained.

"Third Grandpa, you scold me no matter where we go. I'm so tired of hearing it. I really feel uncomfortable. Can you please scold me less?"

"What's wrong with me scolding you? Let me tell you, anyone with a brain can see through your little schemes. I'm just reminding you!"

Zu Huanyao sighed softly, walked up to Zu Xiangtian with his hands behind his back, patted him heavily on the shoulder, and said.

“Sigh, although I am your third grandfather, I have always treated you like my own grandson all these years. I hope you will mature quickly and be able to take on great responsibilities.”

Ideally, I could assist Xingyi in the future...

He didn't say the last sentence, after all, it wasn't the right time yet. He had to wait for Xingyi to recover his strength before he could take back the Zu family's power and status.

"Third Grandfather, I understand."

Although Zu Xiangtian was annoyed by these lecturing words, he knew in his heart that his third grandfather was doing it for his own good, so he still listened to what the other party said.

After his defeat in the previous competition for world universities, his third grandfather used his international connections and resources to try every means to get him into the Holy Tribunal.

Not only that, she also took him to the Parthenon to discuss with the Mother of the Temple and decided to bestow upon him the Seal of Praise.

All of these actions demonstrated his great-grandfather's love and respect for him, and he did not let the other party down, growing up to where he is today.

If his third grandfather ranked second in Zu Xiangtian's heart, then no one could rank first, not even his grandfather or parents.

Unfortunately, Zu Xiangtian didn't know that his naive belief that his beloved third grandfather was actually just a tool to be cultivated.

Because of everything he did, no matter what Zu Huanyao arranged, Zu Xiangtian would obediently do it. He wanted just such a tool, a tool to assist his grandson!
"I'll deal with the black-robed man with the token. As for Chen Xi..."

Zu Huanyao patted Zu Xiangtian on the shoulder again, walked back to the floor-to-ceiling window, and looked down at the entire view of Dubai. His dark, deep eyes gleamed.

"I have my own plans." (End of Chapter)
