Full-Time Magister: You're selling soul beasts in Shanghai?

Chapter 140 The Chaser, Saint Shadow Simmons

"Could you give me some time to prepare?" Mu Gong asked tentatively.

As the patriarch of the Mu clan, and with the support of two forbidden spells, it wouldn't be too much of a problem for Mu Gong to raise tens of billions in a short period of time.

Xu Beichen didn't answer, but instead looked at Fan Ning and said calmly, "What do you think?"

"Since it's an auction, doing this is clearly against the rules," Fan Ning said.

Fan Ning was ultimately just a Grand Elder, and his influence within the clan was no match for that of the clan leader, Mu Gong. Moreover, Mu Gong had the support of two forbidden spells behind him.

"Indeed."

Xu Beichen nodded. If he had to choose between Mu Gong and Fan Ning, he would prefer Fan Ning.

Although Xu Beichen did not take the Mu family seriously, if the Mu family possessed three forbidden spells, their status both domestically and internationally would inevitably rise.

Xu Beichen naturally didn't want to see this happen.

If Fan Ning breaks through the forbidden spell, it will definitely add a lot of uncertainty to the Mu Clan.

Once Ice Emperor Mu Rong reveals his identity as the puppet emperor of the far south and then gets rid of him, Fan Ning will definitely not stay obediently in the Mu family.

At that time, Fan Ning will most likely lead some members of the Mu clan to establish a separate clan.

This single move could shatter the Mu family.

"Transfer the money to my account first," Xu Beichen said to Fan Ning.

Upon hearing this, Fan Ning was taken aback at first, then his face lit up with joy, and he quickly agreed.

Seeing this, Mu Gong immediately showed a displeased expression. He felt as if he had been tricked.

From handing over the Ice Crystal Bow fragments to supporting Pan Nijia, and now fulfilling his promise, Xu Beichen has not suffered any loss whatsoever.

But it was the Mu family who suffered the loss.

But now, he dared not say anything more. If he offended Xu Beichen because of this, he would have no chance to break through the forbidden spell.

Although this opportunity is gone, there may be another chance in the future.

In just half a month, Hailong and Fanning broke through to the forbidden spell, once again proving how terrifying Xu Beichen's abilities were.

After dealing with these two matters, Xu Beichen rested in the Goddess's Palace for two more days before leaving the Parthenon.

Xu Beichen had just left the Parthenon and was preparing to go to Athens Airport when Jiuyou suddenly floated out of the contract ring.

"Someone is following you."

Jiuyouhou did not tease Xu Beichen as usual, but floated behind him, leaning against his face and speaking seriously.

Upon hearing this, Xu Beichen immediately frowned. Anyone who could make Jiuyouhou so solemn was no ordinary mage.

"What level of strength?" Xu Beichen suppressed a hint of panic in his heart and asked.

"I don't know. He possesses a power that I despise, otherwise I might not have been able to sense it. At the very least, it's close to a forbidden spell," said Jiuyouhou.

With Xu Beichen's help, Jiuyou Queen is undoubtedly the most powerful of the eight fallen monarchs, having reached the peak of the monarch level, which is the level of an invincible monarch.

Simply put, under the forbidden spell, no mage can stand against the Nine Netherworld Queen.

"Can we avoid it?" Xu Beichen continued.

"No, he's already tracked our movements," Jiuyouhou replied.

Xu Beichen's face darkened. This was clearly a well-prepared attack. There were only a handful of forces that would dare to attack him so openly.

After excluding the Parthenon, only the five state-level magic associations, the Hunter's Alliance, and the Holy City, which controls the Inquisition and the Heinous Inquisition, remain.

As for a force like the Assassin's Hall, even if someone really wanted to hire an assassin to eliminate him, they wouldn't send someone of that level.

The Hunter Alliance can also be ruled out, as Xu Beichen has no vested interests with them.

Of the five state-level magic associations, the Asian Magic Association is the most likely, after all, Su Lu's ambition is truly great.

Of course, Xu Beichen was most suspicious of the Holy City, because only the Holy City could send out such a being so casually.

"Since we can't avoid it, let's meet."

After clarifying his thoughts, Xu Beichen's expression calmed down.

"Are you sure? Even I can't guarantee your safety." Jiuyouhou looked at him with some surprise.

"Are there any other options?" Xu Beichen asked calmly.

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

Jiuyou was speechless. Now, she truly had no choice but to face this unknown powerhouse.

"Ghosts? Interesting. I thought it would be a simple little task, but there's an unexpected surprise."

Not long after Xu Beichen stopped, a handsome man flew over from a distance, and the aura emanating from him caused Xu Beichen's expression to change slightly.

Forbidden spell!

Xu Beichen had at least come into contact with quite a few forbidden and semi-forbidden spell masters, and their auras were very different.

This man is a genuine forbidden spell master!

"I didn't expect the Holy City to send a Saint Shadow directly to assassinate me, saving so many procedures," Xu Beichen suddenly said, making a startling remark.

Forbidden spellcasters are supreme beings in other factions, and only the Holy City has such a foundation to send them as assassins.

The Holy Shadows are a very special force in the Holy City. They often deal with groups that do not appear to be a threat on the surface, but have been identified by the Holy City as terrible heretics.

They never execute anything in the name of the Holy City, but once they appear and set their sights on a target, they will never allow him to continue living in this world.

Saint Shadow had no legitimate cause, but everything Saint Shadow did was in accordance with the will of the Holy City. There was absolutely no question of right or wrong, only a result.

There are too many things in this world that cannot be defined. Even a villain may show a kind side at some point. The job of Saint Shadow is to deal with those "ambiguous" threats!

A saying circulated within the Holy City: "The Holy Shadows have killed far more innocent people than guilty ones, but the world is at peace because of it."

They represent, to some extent, the dark side of the Holy City: cruel, cold-blooded, and ruthless in achieving their goals!

Of course, they also have to bear the responsibility for their crimes.

Once the truth is revealed to the world that they have wrongly killed a heretic, they too will be executed.

But every Holy Shadow was prepared to be executed, for the very existence of the Holy Shadow was "fighting violence with violence"!

The training of a Saint Shadow begins the moment they awaken their magic. It involves cruel training, devilish drills, and layers of selection before they can finally become a Saint Shadow, a deadly weapon!

Saint Shadow Simmons paused for a moment, looking at his target with some surprise.

"I didn't expect you to have some knowledge. You should know that as long as Saint Shadow makes a move, that person cannot survive in this world."

Saint Shadow Simmons was not in a hurry to complete the mission; he still had some interest in Xu Beichen.

I caught a cold and felt unwell, so the update is a little late.
