Versatile Mage: I Awakened Nine Stars

Chapter 396 A Statement That Ignites the World
early morning.

The salty sea breeze blowing in through the window invigorated Xu Shen, who had been working hard all night.

At this moment, he was in a good mood, not only because he had unlocked a new position.

It was also because the task that Old Man Bao had given him had finally been completed.

With the inscription of the Heaven-level sealing formation completed, the Condensed Evil Pearl now exudes a faint golden glow, appearing holy and ethereal, a far cry from its previous sinister appearance.

"the vast horizon is my love……"

Xu Shen took out his phone, saw the caller ID, and raised an eyebrow.

"Congratulations, you've offended the Theban family as soon as you arrived in Europe."

Asha's voice is alluring and languid, making one's heart itch with desire.

Xu Shen curled his lip: "Such a small grudge, it's not like you'd throw me into the Atlantic Ocean, is it?"

Asha's smile said, "That's not quite it, but it will still cause some trouble."

"You're the kind of woman who never does anything without a reason. Just tell me, what do you want?"

"As the saying goes, it's better to resolve conflicts than to let them fester. I'd like to act as a mediator and help you turn hostility into friendship, what do you say?"

Xu Shen glanced at his phone a few times.

These two proverbs reminded him of Penny Ja, whom he had met in Australia.

Were they taught Chinese by the same teacher?

Speaking of Pennyja, Xu Shen naturally thought of Essendel, who was forced to the far south.

The election of the goddess seems to be just around the corner.

Xu Shen seemed to see through everything and laughed, "So, your purpose in coming to me is for the Goddess Election?"

"Believe it or not, I have no interest in the position of goddess," Asha'ruya said. "I'm also in Tinoaia. Shall we arrange a time to meet?"

"What, Your Highness, have you missed me?"

Asharuya blinked, her tone alluring: "Guess?"

"Then let's meet. Whether you miss me or not, I do miss Your Excellency the Holy Maiden somewhat."

Xu Shen's flirting skills have reached a level of perfection, so his tone was not frivolous, but even somewhat sincere, which made Asha Ruya's heart skip a beat for no reason.

However, she wasn't some naive little girl, and chuckled, "See you later then, I'll send you the address via WeChat."

Asha Riya chose a restaurant with a rather ambiguous decor.

The restaurant wasn't noisy; couples could be vaguely seen whispering sweet nothings in the semi-open or fully enclosed booths and tent area.

Xu Shen raised his eyebrows slightly.

This woman certainly knows how to pick a place.

Following the waiter's directions, we took the elevator to the rooftop observation deck, where Asharuya was already waiting.

She wore a long black dress, leaning against the railing and gazing into the distance, leaving Xu Shen with only her back view.

For some reason, Xu Shen felt that she no longer possessed the alluring and lively charm she once had.

It was dawn, and the brilliant sunrise was painting the sea red, but Xu Shen felt that the figure in the background was somewhat melancholy and lonely.

"You came?"

When Asha'ruya turned around, she had already put on a sly smile like a little fox, as if what she had just seen was just an illusion.

She pulled out a chair and invited Xu Shen to sit down.

"Now you can tell me what's on your mind, right?"

"Just last night at around 2 a.m., or 9 a.m. local time, the China Magic Association issued a statement bypassing the Burj Khalifa."

Xu Shen had a sudden thought and came up with the idea of ​​satellite arrays.

How do you know this has anything to do with me?

Asha'ruya said with a hint of resentment, "Please, why don't you take a look at who the members of Ruoshui Squad are?"

Xu Shen smiled awkwardly. He had forgotten that he was the one who invited this woman to join the team.

"So, you want the array diagram?"

Asha'ruya smiled and leaned down, placing her arm around his shoulder, her voice as alluring as a succubus: "Would you dare give it to me?"

Even though Xu Shen was used to seeing beautiful women, the sweet breath tickled his ears and made his heart beat faster.

“I definitely can’t give it to you.” Xu Shen refused with immense willpower.

Asha's Riyadh stood up, pulled out a nearby chair, and sat down, saying, "I know, because of that satellite array, you obtained a piece of private land."

"To correct you, it was Little Fish who obtained the private land, not me."

Azharia remained noncommittal, but continued, "I'd like to have a share of this private property."

Xu Shen was taken aback: "Why? Why would the saintess of the Parthenon take a fancy to such a piece of land?"

Asha's tone was somewhat downcast: "Just consider it as leaving yourself a way out."

"A way out?"

Xu Shen shook his head and said, "Given your status, the trouble you can't handle would probably be at least at the level of forbidden spells. I don't think that piece of land can provide you with any protection."

Azharia said, "Then you underestimate your Grand Speaker. Why don't you take a look at his statement?"

Xu Shen was skeptical, but took out his phone.

At this moment, the statement has gone viral globally, and even some software's splash screen ads are about it.

A simplified version has already been compiled, and the main points of the statement are as follows:

China welcomes monks and their families from all over the world to reside permanently within its borders.

Anyone who donates the essence of an emperor or the essence of the earth can obtain a private plot of land within 1 square kilometer in any available land in China free of charge.

Those who donate the essence of a monarch or the celestial veins of the stars can choose any piece of land within 1 square kilometer of available land outside the core area of ​​the satellite array as their private territory.

Xu Shen read it word by word, his brows furrowing slightly involuntarily.

The Nazca Lines mystery was solved thanks in no small part to Shaga's sacred texts.

Yu Mian should have mentioned this when she found Shao Zheng.

However, the statement made no mention of her home country.

“China is about to rise completely,” Asharuya exclaimed, her tone tinged with envy.

In the world of mages, going it alone is not a sustainable path; the family is the smallest unit.

How to protect the elderly and children of the clan to the greatest extent possible and ensure the continuation of the family line in a world where survival is uncertain is a headache for every mage.

Today, Shenzhou has provided a near-perfect solution.

At the very least, it is the perfect solution to deal with non-human-caused disasters.

Even for the sake of future generations, many people will migrate to China.

This force, though small, has grown into a significant force, and it's a foregone conclusion that it will shake the rule of the Asian Magic Association.

Let's take our imaginations a step further, even to the Holy City... that's not out of the question.

"Too many mages moving in might not be a good thing for ordinary people."

Xu Shen's tone was heavy.

Liu Xian from the previous life is the best example.

Faced with a small fry like the vampire Nie Dong, all she, an ordinary person, could do was try to trick Xu Shen and use suicide to uphold her dignity and innocence.

Whenever he thought of this, Xu Shen felt a suffocating regret in his heart, which even living a second life could not alleviate.

Due to the influence of the satellite array, a large number of magical families will definitely choose to migrate to China.

Land prices in the core area of ​​the satellite array could even rise to an unimaginable level.

These effects will not be discussed for the time being.

At the very least, in the foreseeable future, there will be more and more spoiled rich kids appearing in China.

These spoiled brats are most enthusiastic about challenging the bottom line of the rules.

If the judicial system is not strong enough, the already difficult lives of ordinary people will become even more difficult and painful.

Asha Ruya was slightly taken aback, staring blankly at Xu Shen, her eyes sparkling with a strange light.

She never imagined that Xu Shen would consider the issue from this perspective.

Since awakening her magic at the age of fifteen, she has almost never experienced the life of an ordinary person.

So much so that, subconsciously, she no longer saw those people.

Aside from her adoptive father, she had never imagined that someone standing on high ground would be able to bend down and hear the sounds of someone struggling and wailing in the mud.
