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

Chapter 89 Building a Power: Is Senior Sister's Best Friend Fun?

The next day.

Cheng Xiao originally wanted to return to Shanghai early in the morning, but Tang Yue insisted on treating him to lunch before letting him go.

"Come visit me more often in the future," Tang Yue said kindly, straightening the wrinkles in Cheng Xiao's clothes.

She seems different today compared to before.

That mature and charming temperament has an added touch of elegance.

"Yes, I will," Cheng Xiao said with a smile.

"Give your sister a farewell kiss." Tang Yue raised her face and closed her beautiful eyes.

Cheng Xiao gently stroked her cheek and lowered his head to kiss her.

..............................

Upon returning to Shanghai, Cheng Xiao's first action was naturally to go home and let them know he was safe.

The trip to the ancient capital has lasted for ten days to half a month, and with what happened, Mu Nujiao and Xin Xia must be worried sick.

But given the previous incident involving the black snake totem in Songcheng, they should feel a little more at ease.

Seeing Cheng Xiao return unharmed, Xin Xia first breathed a sigh of relief, then said softly:

"Brother Cheng Xiao, are you a jinx? Wherever you go, disaster strikes!"

"How could such cold words come from your soft, warm little mouth?" Cheng Xiao asked, pinching Xin Xia's cheek.

"Who made Brother Cheng Xiao always make Sister Mu and me worry?" Xin Xia said resentfully.

"Exactly!" Mu Nujiao chimed in.

"."

Cheng Xiao thought for a moment and obediently accepted the criticism: "Okay, it's my fault."

Changing the subject abruptly, Cheng Xiao sneered:

"But don't you guys know your place? How dare you talk to me like that? Haven't seen me for a few days and you're itching for a beating?"

After saying that, Cheng Xiao picked up Xin Xia and let her sit on his lap.

"Brother Cheng Xiao can't take this, Sister Mu, save me~~~" Xin Xia quickly begged for mercy.

Mu Nujiao originally wanted to save Xinxia, ​​but ended up getting caught up in it herself.

Xin Xia and Mu Nu Jiao, these two unfortunate sisters, with the mentality of "if we can't resist, we might as well enjoy it," obediently submitted.

Cheng Xiao made no further move, but coughed twice and said:

"Let's get down to business. I want to build my own faction."

"Our own power?" Xin Xia was the first to agree, laughing.

"Given Brother Cheng Xiao's current reputation, I'm afraid many admiring monks will come to seek refuge with him."

Mu Nujiao seemed to know a bit about this, and said:

"Building a force requires a lot of preparation. Reputation alone is not enough; you also need to consider funding, manpower, and your own private territory."

"Have you prepared all of these things?"

Cheng Xiao shook his head:

"We're just in the planning stage, and we wanted to discuss this with you."

"Oh, that's perfect. I have a cousin named Mu Nuxin who can help you with funding and operations," Mu Nujiao said.

Upon hearing this name, Cheng Xiao seemed to be deep in thought.

Although Mu Nujiao's cousin, Mu Nuxin, is just an ordinary person who has not awakened magic, she is a businesswoman with top-notch business acumen!

In the original story, the arrival of the siren greatly impacted the businesses of many families and clans, causing them to decline.

However, with Mu Nuxin around, the Mu family not only stabilized its foundation but also continued to expand, solidifying its status as a top family in the Shanghai base city!

Cheng Xiao would naturally not give up on such a talented person.

"Okay, I trust the person you recommended. If possible, I'd like your cousin to be the operations manager for the organization," Cheng Xiao said.

"Huh?" Mu Nujiao was taken aback.

Was Cheng Xiao's promise too hasty? After all, the operations manager practically holds the lifeline of an entire organization!

"Are you really that at ease?" Mu Nujiao couldn't help but ask.

"We've known each other for so long, you usually don't recommend people to me. Since you've said it, I naturally trust you."

Cheng Xiao pinched her exquisite cheek: "You wouldn't hurt me, would you?"

Mu Nujiao blushed:

"I see."

"When you talk to your cousin about this, make sure you make it clear that I can give her the space to grow, as long as she's willing to join my cause."

"Okay, I will definitely tell her."

"."

Xinxia asked, "What about the private land and manpower?"

"Let's choose Asuka City for our private property. It's still undeveloped and a great place for growth," Cheng Xiao paused, then continued.

"As for manpower, we are indeed lacking experts to oversee things."

Ding Yumeng and her henchmen alone are not enough, after all, they are a force in the gray area.

Cheng Xiao does have someone in mind when it comes to this expert.

..............................

The next day.

Cheng Xiao broke free from the tender embrace of Xin Xia and Mu Nu Jiao and headed towards the Pearl Tower.

This trip was naturally for the purpose of repairing the "Glassy Phoenix Feather".

"You always manage to surprise me."

Huo Tuo stroked the 'Glassy Phoenix Feather' and glanced at the repair materials Cheng Xiao had brought, his brows furrowing.

"I'm sorry, I can't repair this magical artifact." Huo Tuo said helplessly.

"Why?" Cheng Xiao raised an eyebrow and asked, seemingly not very surprised.

Please bookmark 6.9 books!

Huo Tuo was furious:

"Are you deliberately trying to cause trouble? This kind of magic tool, which is above the Heavenly level, can only be repaired perfectly by a blacksmith of the Forbidden Spell level!!"

"Even if I use all my strength, I can only guarantee you a 20% success rate!"

"If we fail, all your materials will be destroyed. Do you dare to repair them for me?"

"Then let's forget about it," Cheng Xiao refused.

..............................

After leaving the Pearl Tower, Cheng Xiao went straight back to the hunting lodge.

The only blacksmith Cheng Xiao could think of who could repair magical artifacts made from Emperor-level alien bones was Old Man Bao.

Old Bao was, after all, a former high priest, so his connections were naturally extensive.

"Tsk, Boss Bao isn't here."

Cheng Xiao entered the hunting lodge but did not sense Old Man Bao's presence.

Suddenly, a familiar, beautiful figure rushed over angrily and knocked Cheng Xiao down onto the sofa.

"Sister Leng Qing, what are you doing?" Cheng Xiao asked, looking puzzled.

"Is your senior sister's best friend fun?" Leng Qing questioned.

Cheng Xiao's face stiffened.

"It's bad enough that Tang Yue got to eat me, but she even came here to show off!" Leng Qing became angrier the more she thought about it, wishing she could just devour Cheng Xiao beneath her.

"Aren't you best friends?" Cheng Xiao couldn't help but ask.

No wonder Tang Yue wanted to take some kind of record photos with him after that day; it turns out they were for Leng Qing.

However, judging from this situation, it seems that the friendship between Leng Qing and Tang Yue has undergone a subtle change.

"That's no excuse for her eating you without my permission!" Leng Qing's face darkened.

"Isn't it because I used to brag to her every day about having such a reliable and capable junior brother like you? Now you're getting revenge on me like this!"

Cheng Xiao's eyelids twitched: "Sister Leng Qing, you're also at fault."

Leng Qing gave a light snort, not denying it.

She lowered her head and gently kissed Cheng Xiao's lips, then asked:

"Why are you at the hunting lodge instead of resting after just finishing things in the ancient capital?"

"If you need anything, ask Boss Bao."

"What is it?"

"Repair Magic Tools".
