Full-Time Magister: The Evil Emperor Descends

【If, and I mean if... this was truly the work of the Totem Serpent, would you still continue to protect it?】

Recalling the silence of everyone, Mo Xie understood what they were thinking and sighed.

Actually, it's not their fault. As humans, they naturally have to stand on the side of humanity.

It's impossible for someone who is a guardian of the totem race to unconditionally protect the safety of the totem serpent. If the totem serpent really did this, even if they wanted to protect it, the pressure from the higher-ups would be immense.

"Little Xie..."

As Mo Xie was lost in thought, a soft and alluring mature female voice rang in her ears, as if bewitching her soul.

Coming to her senses, she turned her head and saw Tang Yue hugging her arms, her pretty face full of worry, her eyes darting around as if she were a little scared.

She hugged Mo Xie's arm tightly, sinking into its softness. After a moment of silence, she asked hesitantly.

"Xiao Xie... do you... also think that the two people who died from poisoning... were killed by everyone?"

Upon hearing this, Mo Xie realized that what he had said earlier could easily be misunderstood, especially for Tang Yue, who was particularly sensitive today, it was like adding insult to injury.

The totem snake was already being framed, so it's understandable that her boyfriend would feel a little resentful when he said those words.

Thinking of this, Mo Xie reached out and stroked Tang Yue's soft cheek, looked directly into her uneasy eyes, and said softly.

"Sister Tang Yue, I believe everyone is innocent. I just want to see the exact attitude of my uncle and the others, because it is very important for my next judgment."

Hearing Mo Xie's calm voice, Tang Yue's uneasy heart finally relaxed, and she loosened her grip a little.

When she heard those words in the conference room earlier, her heart skipped a beat. She thought that Mo Xie's mind had also wavered, but now it seemed that it didn't, and her worries gradually disappeared.

"What do you mean by the next judgment?"

Mo Xie glanced at Tang Yue, hooked her firm, delicate nose with his finger, and smiled mysteriously as he spoke.

"I won't tell you that for now, let's take the big guy away first."

"okay."

The two had already left the conference room and headed straight for the Three Pools Mirroring the Moon.

This time, Tang Yue had a black bead in her hand, which Tang Zhong called a totem bead, a special container that allows totem creatures to be contained inside.

The space inside the totem bead is very large, allowing the totem snake to rest briefly inside.

Totem beads are actually a type of spatial container, but most spatial containers cannot hold living beings. After being modified, these totem beads can be infused with life energy. In other words, if there is enough life energy inside the totem bead, the totem snake can stay inside.

If the life energy is depleted, the totem serpent must come out, otherwise it will suffocate in that dead space.

Zhu Meng naturally had no idea that totem beads existed in this world. They were mobilizing personnel to carry out a hazard elimination plan in West Lake and had people keeping a close eye on Tang Zhong and his powerful subordinates.

Little did they know that Tang Zhong had already made plans, instructing Tang Yue and Mo Xie to secretly move the Totem Serpent overnight with the Totem Beads!

If Zhu Meng had simply wanted to drive the Totem Serpent out of human territory, the matter might not have been so complicated. But in reality, he wanted to completely eradicate the Totem Serpent...

Where can a monarch-like demon with such a strong attachment to human cities stay? Who knows, it might lead a group of snake demons back to kill us one day!
To cut the weeds, one must nip them in the bud. Tang Zhong felt that Zhu Meng might take advantage of the moment when the totem serpent was at its weakest to kill it!
Therefore, he had to get Tang Yue to take the Totem Serpent away. Once it had passed its molting period, even if Zhu Meng had ten times the courage, it wouldn't dare to touch a single scale of the Totem Serpent.

The god is not accepted by the world, and people have a fear that keeps them awake at night. Although the Hangzhou Tribunal and the government insist on the inheritance of this ancient totem, it does not mean that the national authoritative organization will tolerate such a thing.

The appearance of the totem serpent in the bustling city has already attracted the attention of the Pearl Magic Tower and the Imperial Magic Court. It is unknown how many more mages will come here to find out what's going on.

If they unanimously decide to execute the Totem Serpent at this time, the Totem Serpent, which is in the molting stage, will have no chance to resist!
Tang Yue bit her lip, her gaze fixed on the furnace on the water's surface, which had been burning quietly for countless years, and prayed in her heart.

Sigh, I hope everyone can get through this crisis safely...

"Sister Tang Yue, everyone is really important to you."

Seeing Tang Yue praying for the Sky-High Serpent, Mo Fan smiled and said something.

Tang Yue stood there, her gaze somewhat unfocused, as if lost in memories, and slowly spoke.

“When I was a little girl, my parents were out doing missions every day, and I lived here alone.”

“Once I went to Lingyin Mountain for fun and encountered a runaway fanged beast. There was no one around and the fanged beast seemed very hungry. I thought I was going to die there.”

"But after a long time, when I opened my eyes, I found that the fanged beast had run away in fright."

"I turned my head and saw West Lake in the dark night from the mountain. The moonlight shone on West Lake, and a huge snake shadow was faintly visible underwater... That was the first time I saw it."

A slight smile appeared on her lips, a nostalgic one, as she continued.

“It is huge, but I am not afraid. It is more like an elder living next door who has watched me grow up. As long as I am in West Lake, it will protect me.”

"Now that I'm all grown up, it's my turn to protect it!"

Seeing that Tang Yue was describing things very seriously, Mo Fan did not interrupt her and chose to listen quietly.

People need a home because they need the authenticity that allows them to step through the door and let down their guard, and the peace of mind that comes from not having to worry.

For most children, this sense of security and protection comes from their parents and elders. But for Tang Yue, it is this totem serpent that brings immense fear to the world that is truly extraordinary and special.

Taking a deep breath, Mo Xie placed his hand on Tang Yue's rounded shoulder, pulled her in front of him, and looked intently into her sparkling eyes, speaking slowly and deliberately.

"Sister Tang Yue, it's not just about everyone else; I'll also be your support from now on. Sometimes when you're tired, you can lean on me. I'll always protect you!"

"Little Xie..."

Upon hearing this, Tang Yue froze on the spot, her fair arms hooking around Mo Xie's neck, her pretty face filled with emotion.

A pair of exquisite eyes were covered with a layer of mist, as if flowing with spring water, her gaze was full of affection, and her eyes were full of emotion.

Mo Xie released her rounded shoulders, put one arm around her soft, boneless waist, and pressed the other hand against her swan-like neck. She lowered her head slightly and kissed her beautiful, alluring red lips.

Feeling the warm touch on her lips, Tang Yue slowly closed her beautiful eyes, a tear sliding down her cheek. She wrapped her arms tightly around the man's neck and threw herself into the deep kiss.

Lips met, tongues intertwined, and under the moonlight, a man and a woman stood by West Lake, embracing and kissing—a beautiful and moving scene, like a picturesque painting! (End of Chapter)
