Full-Time Magister: A Hellish Start, But the Shadow King

Chapter 206 A Common Enemy: Su Lu, and the Moth Maiden Develop Feelings Over Time

"You, you've heard of me?" Yu Shishi immediately became wary.

"I've not only heard of you, I even know a lot about you," Cheng Xiao said with a smile.

"You were abandoned by your parents when you were a child because you were seriously ill, but you were unexpectedly saved by the totem beast Moon Moth Phoenix and became a special Moth Girl."

"The fact that you're coming to me now means your secret has been discovered by the Research Council, and you're probably desperate. Am I right?"

"you"

Yu Shishi stared at Cheng Xiao, too shocked to speak.

If it were just someone from the Research Institute contacting her with this message, that would be one thing, but how did Cheng Xiao know about her childhood and the Moon Moth Phoenix?

Standing in front of Cheng Xiao, Yu Shishi felt as if she had been stripped naked, with no secrets left to hide.

"Don't worry, I won't hurt you," Cheng Xiao explained softly.

"My intelligence all comes from a state legislator named Su Lu, who wants to enslave the totem beast Moon Moth Phoenix behind you, and I stole his intelligence."

"He is my enemy, the Tokai Research Society that is hunting you down. It is also directly under the Asian Magic Association and Su Lu's command. Our troubles come from the same person. I will protect you."

Cheng Xiao's words were half true and half false, but the two things that remained unchanged were dealing with the enemy, Su Lu, and protecting Yu Shishi; nothing else mattered.

Yu Shishi thought for a moment, then asked cautiously:

Why should I believe you?

"If you don't trust me, why did you come to me?" Cheng Xiao looked at Bora:

"Bora, see the guest out."

When Yu Shishi saw that Cheng Xiao was really going to see her off, she panicked.

Having finally seen a glimmer of hope, she had no desire to face those brutal members of the Research Council again.

"Wait, wait a minute, we can talk some more," Yu Shishi said quickly.

Cheng Xiao raised his hand to stop Bora, then raised an eyebrow at Yu Shishi, giving her an impression that he could send her away at any time.

"Before I came here, I inquired about you. You've taken in quite a few vampires and have a close relationship with totems," Yu Shishi said.

"It's not that I don't trust you, it's just that the Moon Moth Phoenix is ​​too important to me."

"I'm sorry, I can't reveal any information about the Moon Moth Phoenix to you."

"If you can't accept my request, then I won't cause you any trouble."

Yu Shishi had some understanding of Cheng Xiao from various intelligence reports.

He is adorned with numerous honors and could easily be considered a top figure, having also built his own power base.

This faction also took in many people like her who were considered "outcasts," with vampires being the most classic example.

Most importantly, Cheng Xiao also has a close relationship with the Xuan Snake, the guardian deity of Song City.

If it weren't for this last point, Yu Shishi wouldn't have placed her hopes on Cheng Xiao.

Cheng Xiao lacks nothing in terms of status, reputation, and power. As someone recognized by the totem Xuan Snake, his character is naturally beyond question.

However, Moon Moth Phoenix is ​​currently in the cycle of reincarnation, which is her most vulnerable state, and she dares not reveal any information.

Even someone like Cheng Xiao wouldn't dare.

"You seem to have misunderstood something." Cheng Xiao looked Yu Shishi up and down, and slowly spoke:

"I never said I wanted to know anything about the Moon Moth Phoenix. I'm not interested in the Moon Moth Phoenix. I'm quite interested in you, though."

Ding Yumeng, who had been silent until now, suddenly froze. She became visibly flustered and stared at Yu Shishi with a wary expression.

This moth woman has large breasts, a perky bottom, and an absolutely stunning appearance; she embodies almost everything a woman desires.

Compared to her, Ding Yumeng is incomparable in every way.

Damn it, we already have enough competitors, do we have to add another one now?

"Master, I am also considered an extraordinary person, so why don't you seem interested in me?" Ding Yumeng quickly whispered.

Cheng Xiao flicked her forehead, making her cover her head and retreat.

Yu Shishi stared blankly at Cheng Xiao, clearly also bewildered by his words.

Could it be that Cheng Xiao was attracted to her beauty?

If sacrificing one's looks to protect her and the Moon Moth Phoenix, it doesn't seem like such a bad deal.

Cheng Xiao has achieved so much at such a young age; if she were to offer herself to him, it wouldn't be unacceptable.

As time goes by, feelings may develop, and maybe the relationship will get better and better in the future?

Moreover, given Cheng Xiao's current status, if he were to actually take her away, she would actually be the one who benefits.

After a mental struggle, Yu Shishi finally nodded in agreement.

"I...I understand." She said resignedly, her slender arms wrapped around her breasts, still somewhat unable to accept it.

Seeing her like this made Ding Yumeng frown.

Why is it that this moth girl gets to enjoy the master's bounty right away, while she's given so much and hasn't even had a chance to eat the master once?!

So unfair!

Boom!

Just as Ding Yumeng thought this, she was hit hard on the head again.

"Master, why did you hit me again?" She covered her head, her eyes brimming with tears, looking aggrieved.

"I am currently studying the Department of Spirituality."

"."

Seeing Ding Yumeng and Yu Shishi's expressions, Cheng Xiao naturally realized that they had misunderstood.

However, Cheng Xiao didn't explain. To insist on going against his conscience and saying he wasn't craving it would be too hypocritical.

"I need celestial seeds of light and lightning. How long can you forge them at the fastest?" Cheng Xiao continued to ask.

Yu Shishi was not too surprised when she heard this.

Cheng Xiao had uncovered almost all of her secrets, and naturally, he wouldn't overlook the fact that she could create the Heavenly Seed.

She thought about it:

"If we have enough materials, it can be built within six months."

"As for the materials, I should be able to find them, right? Just give me a list of suitable materials later." Cheng Xiao looked at Ding Yumeng:

"What other open, undeveloped areas remain in the territory?"

"No, not a single piece. They're all fully booked." Ding Yumeng's tone was displeased, but she still offered advice to her master:

"There is a mountain to the west, but the cleaning work is not yet finished. Nu Xin originally intended to build a sentry post there."

"My moths have a strong sense of perception and can take on this task," Yu Shishi volunteered.

She knew that to live here, she had to make a difference.

Simply selling oneself to Cheng Xiao would likely be far from enough and would also draw criticism and cause trouble.

"In that case, this mountain to the west is yours. Send someone to clear it as soon as possible," Cheng Xiao said.

"Master, is this all you're giving me, a mountain?" Ding Yumeng asked in a low voice.

"Is there a problem?" Cheng Xiao asked her in return.

"No." Ding Yumeng shook her head.

Yu Shishi was overjoyed. Having such a mountain as a habitat for the moths was something she had been dreaming of.

From this perspective, this deal was very profitable for her.

"Master, should I do something?" Bora asked.

"You don't need to do this little thing. I have something more important for you to do," Cheng Xiao said.

"Please tell me, and I will definitely complete the task and give you a satisfactory explanation."

"You and Bell go to the Taklamakan Desert; there's something I want there."
