Full-Time Magician: Demon Mage

Chapter 570 West Lake Cottage

Mo Fan felt a surge of excitement, as if countless riches were beckoning to him, and as alluring beauties in black stockings were waiting for him to take their liking.

After strolling around the plaza, Xinxia led Mofan away.

As a quasi-goddess, she cannot stay outside for too long, and with her here, the maids and knights are easily distracted from their work.

Upon returning to the Parthenon, Mo Fan quickly mounted his dragon mount and planned a famous route back towards China.

……

Another month has quietly passed, and it's now mid-March. The world's turbulent order seems to have become the norm.

Various wars break out in the world one after another. Some people are forced to wander, while in many other places life is good.

On this day, Wang Teng prepared to return to his new residence in Hangzhou, China, with a group of women to see his other grand mansion!

West Lake Cottage!

After a magical transformation, only the central island remained of West Lake. The excess areas were removed, and the edges of West Lake were all built into lake dikes. Mist willows even surrounded the lake dikes, and the gathering and dispersing mist made West Lake look like it was shrouded in clouds and mist.

Only one passageway extends straight out from the central island, connecting to a large square outside; this is the outer gate of West Lake Villa.

At this moment, the place was surrounded by people, men and women, young and old, all waiting with expectant eyes for something.

Among them, a group of old men standing at the main gate were the most prominent, and everyone's eyes were frequently drawn to this side.

As for the media, they couldn't even get into the square; security guards kept them outside and they could only take pictures through the trees.

"What a grand scene... My goodness, isn't that the presiding judge from Hangzhou?"

"Shh~ Keep your voice down, I saw a councilor!"

"See that small area? Those standing there are all top-tier figures!"

"Those bastards from those aristocratic families, they never thought they'd end up like this, only able to stand by and laugh like idiots!"

"You laugh at them for being naive—they laugh at you for not being able to get in!"

"Holy crap, that's heartbreaking!"

……

A large crowd of onlookers gathered near the main square, including important figures they rarely saw on ordinary days.

Everyone's curiosity was piqued, but some who knew the inside story could only watch with envy, as they didn't even have the status to stand in front of them.

As time passed, it came to nine o'clock in the morning, and the sky cleared up, with bright sunshine.

As a colossal shadow appeared on the distant horizon, it instantly drew everyone's attention.

Even from tens of kilometers away, one could feel the overwhelming imperial aura emanating from the emperor!

Its unparalleled presence immediately silenced the audience, who instinctively held their breath.

Wang Teng deliberately released the Xuan Snake, which carried the whole family of women from Yaoyang Castle, and quickly headed to the West Lake scenic area in Hangzhou.

The Xuan Snake was indeed impressive. After devouring the legacy of the Dragon King Ant Mother and supplementing it with a large amount of summoning magic energy, it finally stepped out of the monarch stage and entered the emperor level!

The Xuan Snake managed to overcome the transitional period of the Sub-Emperor by relying on the superior potential of its totem, which impressed even him.

The size of the black serpent also increased dramatically, its length increasing from the original limit of one kilometer to five kilometers!

He was quite surprised by how much this long, snake-like totem had changed after it transformed into an emperor.

Currently, he is only at the early stage of the Emperor level. As he continues to cultivate, no one knows how much he will grow to in the future.

The only downside is that it ate the humidifier core he gave it, using it as an energy source to replenish its body's needs.

With the Xuan Snake breaking through to the Emperor level, he was now quite capable, and using the Xuan Snake as a means of transportation made it incredibly fast.

Most importantly, it's impressive!

When the black serpent flew over the West Lake Square, its towering shadow, resembling a mountain range, gave the crowd below a tremendous shock!

It was as if the sky within sight was shrouded by the giant shadow of the black serpent, and the dark area that was obscured made the sky seem to have turned black.

"Everyone, it's been a long time!"

In the midst of a profound silence, Wang Teng's slightly relaxed greeting, like a gentle spring breeze, instantly extended for tens of kilometers.

Everyone who witnessed the colossal shadow of the black serpent in the sky and was gripped by fear and shock instantly felt relieved, as if everything before them was no longer so unbearable.

"So strong~ This kid..." Hua Junshou, dressed in civilian clothes, loosened his collar and took a breath. Whether it was his own strength or that greeting just now, the other party had shown unparalleled skill.

The ability to soothe the mind across an immense scale, regardless of the number of people, and even to help people break free from the aura of an emperor is terrifying.

It was as if the other party was no longer a human being, but a god from the heavens.

"Commander, isn't this a good thing? The stronger the enemy, the more stable our side will be."

"Recently, even strong monarch-level sea monsters have been rarely seen in the three major sea areas of the Bohai Sea, Yellow Sea, and East China Sea, which has greatly reduced our defensive pressure."

"The South China Sea is quite far away, which is relatively bad..."

Chief Pang Lai, on the other hand, had a big smile on his face. Ever since Wang Teng killed the Sea Demon Emperor, the danger level in the northern inland sea area had continued to decrease sharply.

The East China Sea has also become much safer, which is a positive change brought about by the subsequent developments.

In today's turbulent times, being able to maintain a sense of security is already a great blessing.

The island nation is constantly fighting with the Pacific Ocean Gods and is already exhausted from the harassment.

But no siren emperor ever ventured into this inland sea area again, at most wandering in the Pacific Ocean outside the island chain.

Although it caused some inconvenience due to the invasion of many low- and mid-level sea monsters into the inner sea, it was far from the crisis of the collapse of the base city.

It could even boost the development of the siren economy, which is actually a good thing.

Only the South China Sea region, far from the northern area, is relatively dangerous, with the number of sea monsters increasing dramatically, putting immense pressure on the Demon Capital base city.

Fortunately, there are quite a few forbidden spellcasters in the country. The people who were originally guarding the northern sea area were transferred to the demon capital, and the situation is currently relatively stable.

At worst, we can simply relocate all the people from the Yaodu base city to the inland areas, which is much easier than a complete evacuation from the coastal base cities.

Across the South China Sea, facing the Pacific Ocean's sirens, the Philippines has only Manila, its base city, left to survive, and its survival is in grave danger!

Furthermore, the countries in the South China Sea region also face a precarious living environment, with maritime transport essentially rendered obsolete, relying entirely on land transport for trade.

In addition, the surrounding area is full of rainforest, where many demon tribes lurk, and the few passages available are all located in the buffer zone.

Every large-scale commodity trade and transportation involves risking one's life, which gives you an idea of ​​how difficult it is.

This is also a good thing, as the forbidden spellcasters from the north have entered the Demon Capital to garrison it, and the military forces that have been freed up have made the magical power in that area unprecedentedly strong.

They gained the upper hand, cleared the way for previous routes, and obtained lower prices for mineral veins, such as the Awakening Stone vein, which is extremely scarce in China.

Therefore, Wang Teng's very existence has brought many intangible benefits to the domestic region.

As the situation changes, their attention to Wang Teng continues to rise.

So, when the other party came to see their new home, they took the initiative to come and show their support after receiving the news. Some other forces in the vicinity also came to join in the fun, and their enthusiasm was unstoppable.
