Full-Time Magister: Dark Lord

Moreover, he had always been quite respectful to people like his father-in-law. Even Mu Nujiao's grandfather, wasn't he?

"Hehe...okay, okay, okay..."

Mu Zhuoyun was very happy and continued, "Cao Le, your uncle has always thought you'd be successful since you were a child..."

Upon hearing this, Cao Le immediately lost his temper and didn't want to say anything more.

He's such a sycophant the moment he opens his mouth!

Mu Ningxue also looked helpless, wondering what her father was thinking.

Seeing that the two looked speechless, Mu Zhuoyun smiled nonchalantly and continued, "Have you decided what name to give your clan?"

“Cao Family Manor,” Mu Ningxue said.

Now it's just a small clan, but in the future it will become the Cao family, or even more likely, the Cao clan...

"what?"

Cao Letun paused, "Is he planning to establish a clan based on his own surname?"

“You know I’m not interested in these things,” Cao Le said bluntly.

"I know... so you just need to focus on making money. I'll invest all the money you give me here." Mu Ningxue's lips curled up slightly.

"What??"

"All invested?"

"You don't mean, you spent it all, do you?"

Cao Le was stunned when he heard this...

Just a moment ago, he was worth billions.

Suddenly, it seems like I've become poor?

...

324. The establishment of the Cao family clan.

Cao Le seems to only have tens of millions of yuan to his name now...

Tens of millions—that would be an enormous fortune for a mid-level mage.

But myself?

That's aimed at reaching the super-level.

Suddenly I'm dirt poor!

Most importantly, he also told Dean Xiao with great confidence: No matter how expensive it is to find the Star Sea Celestial Vein, you must contact me.

"I'll call Dean Xiao first..."

As Cao Le spoke, he got up, picked up his phone, and called Dean Xiao.

Otherwise, it always feels like being stood up...

Suddenly, Mu Ningxue no longer seemed appealing!

What a spendthrift woman!

"Xuexue, how much did you spend?" Mu Zhuoyun asked curiously as Cao Le left.

"It's just a few hundred million, I was just joking with him. But he's used to spending money like water, so I have to help him save some. Besides, he's already at the advanced stage of perfection, and I heard he even talked to Dean Xiao of Mingzhu Academy about buying a Star Sea Heavenly Vein. I need to prepare some things for him," Mu Ningxue replied.

"what?"

After Mu Ningxue finished speaking, Mu Zhuoyun asked again, "Then... how much did you invest?"

"I've invested myself." Mu Ningxue seemed quite happy, it was rare for her to joke with Mu Zhuoyun.

Mu Zhuoyun was stunned...

It seems that Mu Ningxue has never felt so relaxed since she started cultivating, let alone had such a genuine smile.

While the term "ice queen" might sound appealing, Mu Zhuoyun knew best that Mu Ningxue's life was far from happy. It wasn't her personality, nor was it an act; it was simply the chilling aura within her that constantly drove her...

Just now, Mu Zhuoyun seemed to see Mu Ningxue from her childhood again.

“Dad, I’m where I am today because of his help. Without him, I wouldn’t be where I am now…” Mu Ningxue added when she saw Mu Zhuoyun fall silent.

Without Cao Le's help, perhaps...?

She's one of the substitutes, right?

Moreover, although she didn't want his help, he chose to force her, determined to help her...

In any case, the outcome was good for her.

“No, no… Dad just feels that you haven’t been this genuinely happy in a long time,” Mu Zhuoyun said.

...

While the father and daughter were catching up, Cao Le also told Dean Xiao that before he heard about the Star Sea Celestial Vein, he should first find out the price for him, as he was about to establish a sect and needed to be prepared for the future.

Dean Xiao said there was no problem.

Even if Dean Xiao had found out, he would have done the same thing.

However, after learning that Cao Le wanted to build a family business, Dean Xiao said that he could let him know anytime if he needed any help.

Cao Le immediately replied that once Dean Xiao's grand formation was complete, he would come to his family's residence to help with the setup...

Although Dean Xiao was a little speechless, he still agreed.

...

After finishing his conversation with Dean Xiao, Cao Le returned here and asked, "But how do we set it up now?"

Mu Ningxue said, "You don't need to worry about that, I've already arranged it."

"So, I'm just a tool for making money?" Cao Le asked, pointing to himself.

"Do you remember when we were kids, you said you'd build a bandit's den and capture someone to be your wife? Now that I've delivered myself to your doorstep, of course you have to take responsibility~" Mu Ningxue winked as she spoke.

Having grown accustomed to her icy demeanor, seeing Mu Ningxue's mischievous little face like this is quite a surprise...

Cao Le felt it was necessary to give her a vivid lesson!

Mu Zhuoyun looked at the two of them and said that it was getting late, so he would go back first.

Cao Le thought he could have a dozen fathers-in-law like that...

As for safety, there's no need to worry, since the undead army just swept through the area.

Although it's winter now, the two of them, one icy and the other fiery, are completely unaffected.

...

After the exchange between the ice and fire, Mu Ningxue took Cao Le on a tour of their family.

This is a very special piece of land, a flat area carved out by two narrow mountain ranges, and its terrain is higher than that of Asuka City.

It seems to have been left here, as if it had been reserved for them.

The mountain range to the west is called Feiyue Mountain, which is a very good mountain barrier that keeps the demons of Nanling outside the mountain boundary. Most of the demons of Nanling will not cross this mountain range to come here to attack humans.

The mountain on the east side facing the sea is called Shuangyang Mountain. It consists of two large mountains with a valley river between them, connecting this land of Yueyang and allowing it to reach the sea!

This land, if you keep going north, will pass through Hangzhou and lead directly to Shanghai.

Heading south, you'll find yourself very close to Asuka City, less than ten kilometers away.

Mu Ningxue has already spent the money, and now all that's needed is a large investment in construction, and it will definitely be developed into a very safe town!

Although there are disadvantages here, for example, the existence of a city is more meaningful for a typical family to establish itself and to mine and explore resources, after experiencing the disaster in Bo City, Mu Ningxue puts safety first.

According to Mu Ningxue, Cao Le didn't seem to care much.

What's the point of caring?

Jiang Shaoxu is right; only mediocre people know how to complain.

He has to go find that little slut Asha's... and beg for her!

After looking around, Cao Le felt that this place really was a natural fortress!

...

The Dali family.

After Cao Le and the others left, socialite Li Qing was brought back by the Da Li family.

Ultimately, they didn't really do anything.

Furthermore, the Magic Association wasn't interested in getting involved; they were just going through the motions...

...

"Mu Ningxue, who left the Mu family, became an enemy of the Mu family, and Cao Le, a contestant from the United Nations, established the Cao Family Manor!"

"..."

"It's common knowledge that the Mu family suppressed Mu Ningxue. If they're this cruel to their own people, what about those outsiders who joined?"

"..."

Although the place was named after Cao Le, the media still reported on it extensively, claiming that Mu Ningxue was retaliating against the Mu family.

Moreover, Cao Le also joined in.

After Mo Fan and his group, who were in charge of leading the students, returned and learned about the "Cao Family Manor," they came directly here.

Although Mo Fan had some disagreements with Mu Zhuoyun before, everything was over after the battle with Yu Ang.

After completing the construction here, Mo Fan said he wanted to give a gift and then left.

I wonder what he went to do?

Zhao Manyan thought about it and really didn't know what to give as a gift.
