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

Chapter 52 The various powerful families' attempts to curry favor, and Mu Ningxue's proactive approach.

"Yes, it is indeed necessary to make contact. If he really has such miraculous abilities, our Mu family must keep him in our grasp."

A hint of determination and ruthlessness flashed in Mu Gong's cloudy old eyes.

This ability is terrifying; the Mu clan can even produce several more forbidden spell masters in a short period of time!

"I heard that Xu Beichen has a master, who is at least at the level of a forbidden spell master," Fan Ning said with a frown.

Although the Mu clan has two forbidden spell masters, it doesn't mean they can offend other forbidden spell masters at will.

If the forbidden spellcaster behind Xu Beichen gets angry, even if the Mu clan wins in the end, they will definitely suffer heavy losses.

Most importantly, they didn't know the level of the forbidden spell master behind Xu Beichen.

"A forbidden spellcaster?"

Mu Gong frowned. If a forbidden spell mage was backing him up, then things would be difficult.

Moreover, that old bastard Pang Lai is definitely on Xu Beichen's side. If Xu Beichen runs into trouble, the Mu family will suffer the wrath of two forbidden curses.

"Instead of using force, it's better to let Xu Beichen submit willingly."

Fanning revealed a sly smile, a smile that looked exactly like that of an old fox.

"Give in voluntarily? What methods do you have?" Mu Gong asked hurriedly.

"According to my investigation, Xu Beichen is only twenty years old, in the prime of his youth, amidst so many beautiful and talented women in the clan."

Fan Ning didn't finish speaking, but both Mu Gong and Mu Fangzhou understood instantly.

As the saying goes, even heroes can't resist the charms of a beautiful woman, and using a beautiful woman as a weapon is indeed the simplest and most effective method.

"Then who should we send?" Mu Fangzhou asked.

Fan Ning shook his head and said with a smile, "Of course, the more the better. I think Mu Ningxue, who comes from the Bocheng branch family, is quite good."

"Mu Ningxueyao, she is indeed a very good candidate."

Mu Gong laughed. He had met Mu Ningxue once. With her three thousand strands of silver hair and her fair skin and jade-like bones, no man could resist her!

"Mu Ningxue?" Mu Fangzhou seemed to remember something. "Clan leader, elder, I heard that Mu Zhuoyun seems to be planning to marry into the Zhou family."

"The Zhou family? Just a minor aristocratic family. Mu Zhuoyun knows what to choose."

Mu Gong waved his hand dismissively, saying that the Zhou family didn't even have the right to curry favor with the Mu family.

"Besides Mu Ningxue, I have another good candidate."

Fan Ning whispered a name in Mu Gong's ear. Upon hearing the name, Mu Gong immediately frowned, revealing a very conflicted expression.

Mu Ningxue was ultimately just a member of a branch family, essentially a pawn to be used however one pleased.

"You have to be willing to invest heavily in this kind of thing, otherwise other forces might beat you to it," Fan Ning advised again.

"But isn't she a bit too old?" Mu Gong asked hesitantly.

"Young people these days like mature women, and maybe Xu Beichen just happens to like that type," Fan Ning said.

"Very well, I'll leave this matter entirely to you."

Mu Gong thought about it and realized that if he really managed to bring Xu Beichen to the Mu family, this price would be nothing.

The Great Hall of the Magic Palace.

"Mr. Xu, I am Zhou Qing, the head of the Zhou family. You are truly a handsome and dashing man, admired by all."

"Don't push me, Mr. Xu, I'm from the Wang family."

"And me, I'm from the He family."

Seeing the various families fighting tooth and nail in front of them, the security guards couldn't help but click their tongues in amazement. Were these still the high and mighty big shots they remembered?

Moreover, the person they were fawning over was a twenty-year-old young man; the world had ultimately turned upside down in ways they couldn't comprehend.

"Ahem, line up, one at a time."

Under Di Tian's protection, Xu Beichen took two steps closer and spoke.

Upon hearing this, the previously chaotic crowd lined up in less than a minute.

"Mr. Xu, do you remember the business dealings you had with the Zhou family not long ago?"

Zhou Qing, the head of the Zhou family, said with a smile.

"Business?" Xu Beichen paused for a moment. "Oh, I remember now, your Zhou family did indeed buy a high-bloodline demon beast from me."

"Yes, yes, for the sake of this, could I possibly taste the dish you prepared for Chief Executive Pang Lai?"

Zhou Qing rubbed his hands together and said in a very obsequious manner.

"Heh, what face do you have to offer!" Xu Beichen said coldly.

Zhou Qing's expression changed, and a look of confusion appeared on his face.

Zhou Youhong and his father both said that the business negotiations went very smoothly, but why is Xu Beichen so cold and unapproachable?

"I'm willing to pay double the price," Zhou Qing said hastily.

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

"roll!"

Xu Beichen was too lazy to say anything more and simply uttered a single word.

With Pang Lai as his living advertisement, he has no shortage of customers.

"Zhou Qing, even Boss Xu doesn't like you. What are you still doing here? Don't hold us back."

"Yeah, yeah, get lost! Don't you know we're still in line?"

Seeing this, the other family heads began to kick him while he was down, as each less competitor was a good thing for them.

Zhou Qing glanced at them; many of them were business partners, but at this moment they were all rivals.

"snort!!"

Zhou Qing stormed off; he had to go back and ask Zhou Youhong and his son what they had been up to!

They actually made him lose face!

After Zhou Qing left, several other family heads made the same request, and Xu Beichen agreed to them all.

This is a great opportunity to earn points!

Now that Chief Pang Lai has already broken through, the remaining Azure Python meat will need to find another buyer, and the price will have to rise even further.

After all, it now has a brand effect, so it's normal for the price to double.

Xu Beichen originally planned to stay in the capital for a few days and then return to Shanghai with Mu Nuxin, but now it seems he will have to stay a few more days.

After agreeing on a time with the heads of the various families, Xu Beichen was about to leave when he noticed Mu Ningxue standing outside the hall, her gaze fixed on him, her silver hair shimmering with a captivating luster amidst the interplay of light and shadow.

"What is she doing here?"

Xu Beichen was puzzled. Given Mu Ningxue's personality, it was impossible for them to develop feelings for each other after just strolling around the Imperial Capital Academy together.

Xu Beichen walked to the door, filled with doubt, and asked Mu Ningxue, "Did you need something?"

Mu Ningxue pursed her lips slightly, seemingly hesitating for a moment, but a resolute look quickly flashed in her eyes.

She moved gracefully to Xu Beichen, a faint blush rising on her cheeks, and said softly, "My father would like to invite you to his home for a meal."

Xu Beichen was stunned. Mu Zhuoyun wants to see me?

Since Mu Zhuoyun wants to see me, why doesn't he come himself? It's really strange that he specifically sent Mu Ningxue to convey this message.

This doesn't seem like something Mu Zhuoyun would do.
