Full-Time Magician: Demon Mage

Chapter 38 Mu Family Manor

The next day, Wang Teng completed the transaction with Mu Bai at school, increasing his net worth by one small goal. After spending some money on raising Tang Yue, he now has six small goals in wealth.

In order to get rid of suspicion as soon as possible and to show his sincerity, he completed the handover of the house that same day, moved out of the apartment, and moved into the Haoting Hotel, which is 300 meters away from the school.

He rented a luxury suite for a month, and Tang Yue naturally followed him.

Apart from some clothes, he didn't take anything else with him. The life of a magician is not as complicated as that of an ordinary person.

As the time drew closer to this point, Tang Yue was so busy that she was practically invisible.

The buffet restaurant on the second floor of the Grand Court.

"Have you ever considered joining the Mu family?"

Mu Bai got straight to the point, stating the purpose of his visit that evening.

"So, why did you come to see me all this time, and even treated me to dinner? Do you think I'd join you?"

Wang Teng looked up at him, then picked up a large shrimp from the hot pot and put it in his bowl.

"With your talent, you would naturally receive preferential treatment if you joined the Mu family."

"Furthermore, magic cultivation requires a lot of resources at the later stages. Without resources, it will be too difficult for you to reach the intermediate level."

Mu Bai quoted Mu Zhuoyun's original words: "He accepted this task, and naturally, there are benefits to it."

"I've decided to pursue my studies at a magic university; I think I'll have a bright future there."

"The future is long, who knows if it will be difficult or an opportunity, we have to give it a shot, otherwise we will feel resentful."

Wang Teng smiled. Mu Bai wasn't suitable to be a mediator. Did he think that buying a house from him meant they had a relationship?

When invited, Wang Teng neither said he would join nor refused, leaving him a way out.

However, he looked like he still wanted to persuade him.

"Come on, let's eat something first. I'm starving. We can talk later."

Ignoring him, Wang Teng started eating on his own.

Seeing this, Mu Bai swallowed back his words. After all, he was still a member of the Mu family, so how could he be so shameless as to invite people?

His inner pride wouldn't allow him to do such a thing.

I thought it would be an easy task, but it turned out to be quite difficult.

If he were to speak now, it would make him seem like he's getting a bargain.

So I picked up my chopsticks and started eating hot pot.

As Wang Teng ate the shrimp, a hint of a smile flashed in his eyes. Although he wasn't particularly vengeful, he wasn't exactly generous either.

Based solely on the Mu Ningxue incident, Mu Zhuoyun's style of doing things, and even the fact that there are two traitors involved, he wouldn't even consider the Mu family.

Even without Tang Yue, there's still the Hunter's Alliance. Joining it would allow you to attend school and receive some protection and resources.

So why should he risk getting involved in the Mu family's mess?

After finishing the buffet, Mu Bai left with a burning sore throat.

The second-floor manager stared in shock at the figure walking upstairs. He had received a report from his staff that a guest was eating an unusually large amount of food and was a hotel resident.

After following the whole process, he realized he had lost a lot of money; the cost of the buffet was not even enough to cover one-fifth of the value of the ingredients used.

But he soon discovered that the person was a guest in a luxury suite at the hotel, and had rented it for a month, making him an important guest.

"Isn't this almost eating back the rent money?"

The manager did some mental calculations and realized that it seemed to be true. Good heavens, wasn't that almost like living there for free?

"This buffet restaurant is really good!"

Wang Teng clicked his tongue, savoring the taste of the previous meal. The seasoning was indeed something special; he had eaten a bit too much at once.

Actually, Tang Yue's cooking is quite delicious. He doesn't usually care much about the taste, but when he eats something even better, he naturally can't help but eat more.

And he didn't even have to pay for the meal, which was fantastic. No matter how much it was, getting something for free always made people feel happy.

A few days later, Wang Teng, who was cultivating in the hotel, received a call from Lao Xue from the school, saying that he wanted to participate in Mo Fan's magic duel.

"Just wear whatever you like. It's just a visit to the Mu family, and some classmates will be there too. It wouldn't be appropriate to dress too outlandishly."

Tang Yue picked and chose for him, finally selecting a set of casual and loose clothes. It was a hot day, so it wasn't appropriate to wear too many clothes.

"Alright~ This one will do." Tang Yue's face showed a satisfied expression.

Wang Teng had no choice but to go along with her wishes; after all, he had spent some time choosing, and he couldn't let his efforts go to waste.

The two then drove to the Mu family manor, where they saw a multitude of luxury cars and a bustling crowd.

Tang Yue found a spot to park the car, and Wang Teng waited for her on the side.

A quick glance revealed many people I would never normally see.

They even spotted Zhan Kong, the principal, and others not far away, with students from Tianlan Magic High School standing next to them.

"Let's go over there."

Tang Yue could no longer hold Wang Teng's hand, so the two walked side by side toward the familiar crowd.

"Teacher Tang Yue is here!"

"Holy crap, it's Wang Teng again..."

"He actually came with Teacher Tang Yue, what an enviable guy."

"Is this guy trying to mess with my mentality today?"

Mo Fan finally couldn't hold back anymore. He felt like he had been deceived by Wang Teng last time. Wang Teng said that he had nothing to do with Tang Yue. How could this be called having nothing to do with her?

It's okay, they can still walk side by side? The worst part is that he actually believed Wang Teng's nonsense!

Looking at the two of them chatting and laughing, you'd think they were a couple.

"Principal Zhu, Zhan Kong Instructor!"

Tang Yue greeted the two of them.

"Haha~ Great, as expected of our school's beautiful teacher."

When Principal Zhu saw Tang Yue, he immediately burst into laughter. Didn't he notice that everyone around him was drawn to her? This added to the brilliance of his magic high school.

"Hello, no need to be so polite." Zhan Kong replied calmly, but still politely.

I was genuinely surprised. It hadn't been that long since I'd seen this guy, and he was already at the advanced level!

During the last training session, he could clearly sense that Tang Yue's magical cultivation was definitely not at the high level, but this time it did give him a little shock.

"Tell me! Did you lie to me last time? Are you trying to mess with my mind again today?"

Mo Fan stepped forward and put his arm around Wang Teng's neck, which amused the people around them.

"No, I didn't, don't talk nonsense!"

Wang Teng quickly broke free from his hand and denied it three times. What if this guy lost and then tried to extort money from him?

puff~

When Zhou Min saw Wang Teng's embarrassing moment, it immediately made her laugh, and Wang Teng gained another new image in her mind.

Xu Zhaoting's face showed a sour expression. Goodness, we are all classmates, and you get along so well with others, but when it comes to me, you avoid me like the plague.

He was already disappointed by losing the chance to duel, and now this was like adding insult to injury.

He couldn't do anything about Mo Fan. After all, the training had saved his life, and Mo Fan's magic casting was smoother than his. Both of them used destruction magic, so he had no choice but to accept the school's choice of Mo Fan.
