Versatile Mage: Invincible from the Fire of Disaster

Chapter 264 Moon Phoenix Moth

"I haven't said anything yet! Why are you running away?"

A moth gently flew up and landed on Yu Shishi's hair from Lin Ming's shoulder.

He watched with great interest as Yu Shishi fled in a panic.

"I won't tell you!"

Yu Shishi immediately felt her body lighten, all the restraints disappeared, and she slowly fell from the air.

She knew she couldn't leave, and glared fiercely at Lin Ming.

It seemed that this made her feel safer.

"Wait, wait." Mo Fan looked completely bewildered.

He looked at Lin Ming with a puzzled expression, then turned to look at Yu Shishi.

“You said—” He pointed at Lin Ming, then turned to Yu Shishi: “She knows the location of the totem?”

He immediately looked as if he had just realized something.

Then he glared fiercely at Yu Shishi.

"Hand over the location of the totem right now!"

He looked like a complete villain.

Compared to Yu Shishi, the troublemaker he had punished, Mo Fan preferred Lin Ming, who had saved him.

However, he still looked at Lin Ming and whispered something.

"Old Lin, although this girl is a moth girl, she's not a bad person at heart. Besides, she's a beautiful woman, so forcibly taking her is a bit beneath her dignity."

Although he favored Lin Ming, subconsciously he still didn't want Lin Ming to kill Yu Shishi.

"Pah!" Yu Shishi glared at Lin Ming: "Don't think that just because you've caught me I'll tell you the location of the Moon Phoenix Moth! I'd rather die than reveal it!"

"I don't think I've said anything yet, so why are you so excited?" Lin Ming shrugged, looking at Yu Shishi with great interest.

This moth woman is not simply the guardian of the Moon Phoenix Moth.

She also possesses a truly extraordinary ability—the ability to create celestial seeds!
Or perhaps it's called seed devouring!

Lin Ming was quite envious of this ability, after all, the seed-devouring ability it created was not weak.

Take the earth-type Devouring Seed she created for Mo Fan in the future, for example. It instantly made Mo Fan's super-level awakened earth-type magic one of the strongest magic types!

The defensive power displayed by just a portion of its strength is comparable to that of a turtle shell mage who has immersed himself in defensive magic his entire life!
Not to mention its destructive power!

"It's just a simple question. I won't force you if you don't want to tell me."

Lin Ming waved his hand gently, and spatial power suddenly condensed in the ground, forcibly using the soil and surrounding trees to create three seats.

He gestured gently with both hands, indicating that they should sit down.

He then sat down in the chair.

Mo Fan's eyes widened slightly as he looked at Lin Ming's exquisite spatial manipulation, and he couldn't help but feel a little envious.

But he quickly came to his senses and excitedly patted the seat.

solid.

Yu Shishi stared at Lin Ming, gently biting her slightly pale lips.

Then he glared at Lin Ming fiercely, a hint of self-abandonment flashing in his eyes, and slumped into the chair.

"My first question is, you just mentioned 'you all,' meaning there are other people hunting you down because of the Moon Phoenix Moth incident?"

Seeing that everyone was seated, Lin Ming looked at Yu Shishi and asked a question he already knew the answer to.

Besides herself, the only other person who would go looking for the totem is Su Lu. "You're not..." Yu Shishi was taken aback, looking at Lin Ming with some surprise, but still lowered her head and didn't speak.

"They must be guys from the Siege Research Association," Mo Fan chimed in, stroking his chin. "So those guys from the Siege Research Association were looking for you because of the totem!"

"Ha, you're no different from those guys!"

Yu Shishi snorted coldly, revealing her sharp little tiger teeth as she grinned at the two of them.

Lin Ming, from the "Company Research Association," lowered his head and pondered for a moment.

The Research Society is an organization under the Chinese Magicians Association, with a focus on research.

It now seems they were also bribed by Su Lu.

It should be noted that Su Lu is currently a political enemy of a major Chinese parliamentarian on the international stage, and his totem is also among those protected by the state.

What these guys from the Research Association are doing now is tantamount to treason!
"The second question is, where is the Moon Phoenix Moth?" Lin Ming asked Yu Shishi, holding up his second finger.

Yu Shishi turned her head away and did not answer.

Seeing this, Lin Ming didn't say anything more, but just stared at Yu Shishi.
"There are many totems in this world, just like the Moon Phoenix Moth. My current goal is to find the remaining totems in this world so that our country can become even stronger."

"At the same time, I am also a guardian of totems. I have a good relationship with many totems, such as the Golden Crow of Luoyu Mountain and the Black Serpent in West Lake."

"Therefore, I have no ill intentions toward the totem; in fact, I want the Moon Phoenix Moth to be safe even more than you do."

Lin Ming revealed his identity as a totem guardian and explained one of his purposes: to dispel Yu Shishi's hostility.

Not just the Moon Phoenix Moth?!

Yu Shishi was startled. Were there many more totems like the Moon Phoenix Moth?

But so what! All she cares about is the Moon Phoenix Moth!

"And now it has been confirmed that there are other people searching for the Moon Phoenix Moth, so the Moon Phoenix Moth may not be safe now."

"As far as I know, the person who ordered the Siyan Society to arrest you is Su Lu from the Dubai Magicians Association. He is a highly skilled summoning mage and even has forbidden spell mages under his command."

"If they manage to capture the Moon Phoenix Moth, it will probably become his summoned beast or mount."

Lin Ming sat in the chair and said casually.

Forbidden spell wizard!

Yu Shishi suddenly grabbed the armrest of the chair next to her, and even crushed the armrest that Lin Ming had squeezed!

Even a high-level mage like Mo Fan was no match for him!
Can I really withstand a supreme mage who commands forbidden spellcasters?
If they find the Moon Phoenix Moth.
A mount? No! The Moon Phoenix Moth cannot be a mount!

No, no, no one knows the location of the Moon Phoenix Moth except her!

Yu Shishi tried to comfort herself, but the panic in her eyes proved that her heart was not at peace.

"That's all I have to say. As for whether you're willing to tell me the location of the Moon Phoenix Moth, you should think about it carefully."

"I now represent the official Chinese government. With our protection, the Moon Phoenix Moth will definitely not be captured by Su Lu, and at the same time, the Moon Phoenix Moth will be able to live normally in this country."

"If you don't believe me, you can go and see the Black Serpent in Hangzhou or the Golden Crow in Luoyu Mountain. They are totems that live in China."

After saying that, Lin Ming stood up.

"I'll be staying here at Fanxue Mountain for the next few days. If you've thought things through, come find me."

With a gentle wave of his arm, the mud chair instantly disintegrated, even without the stability of spatial forces!

Lin Ming turned and left, as if he really had no interest in the Moon Phoenix Moth.

But his real purpose this time was to plant a seed of trust in Yu Shishi.

After all, Yu Shishi, this moth maiden, herself has considerable value!
