Chapter 158. The Roadblock
With the subsequent high tides, as the team members gradually advanced to higher ranks, and with the absence of large tides, the defense became much easier, and their star ratings also increased.
As their star rating increases, the time to leave the cherry blossoms is fast approaching. Most people are confident of victory and believe they will not be the ones to give up.
At this moment, Mu Ningxue failed several times.
Her initial insistence was softened by Mo Fan's words.
There was no other way; she originally wanted to go to Tianshan in China to try and see if she could break through to the higher level on her own.
However, as Mo Fan said, even high-level mages cannot guarantee their lives in a place like Tianshan. For a mere mid-level mage like her, whether she can live to reach the place she wants to go, or even leave alive, is a question.
Adding to what Mo Fan said, he had no intention of letting her go. And coincidentally, she didn't reject him either. Precisely because she convinced herself, she naturally accepted Mo Fan's help.
With a piece of the Star River Vein, Mu Ningxue successfully advanced to the advanced stage!
Upon the arrival of their mentor and the discovery that all of them were at the advanced level, the mentor was extremely satisfied.
They did not have a replacement this time.
After the mentors arranged the rest of the journey, they immediately returned home.
On the return journey, Mo Fan went along because he needed Old Man Bao's help. This bewitching bead needed to be repaired, otherwise it would definitely become a big problem in the future.
The mentors have witnessed Mo Fan's strength, so it's not unreasonable for him to delay the departure by a few days.
After returning to China, Mo Fan went straight to Old Man Bao.
When Mo Fan took out the bead, even Old Man Bao was somewhat shocked. However, given Old Man Bao's cultivation level, he was not easily swayed.
"Where did you get this thing from?" Old Bao asked.
"The Red Demon who killed the Cold Hunter King in the Twin Guardian Pavilion escaped from there," Mo Fan briefly recounted, then said, "Old Bao, I've come back to find you this time because I need your help."
"You want this bead to hold the energy the demon needs?" Old Bao also grasped the key point.
"Yes!" Mo Fan nodded.
"But the bewitching power of this bead is quite troublesome. It doesn't bother me, but it has a huge impact on the people around me."
"I know you are incredibly powerful, can you please help me?"
Old Man Bao didn't hesitate at all, nodding and saying, "Okay, I'll take care of it for you."
He knew about Mo Fan's affairs in the ancient capital. Now, he was even serving the country in the National Government, bringing glory to the nation. Even if Mo Fan wasn't a member of the Azure Sky Hunting Grounds, he was willing to offer him some assistance.
After agreeing with Old Man Bao, Mo Fan left the Qingtian Hunting Grounds.
After leaving the Qingtian Hunting Grounds, he went directly to Hangzhou.
Old Bao said it would take some time, so since I had nothing else to do, I naturally decided to go see Teacher Tang Yue.
Well, he also wanted to measure whether Teacher Tang Yue was more aggressive or Mochizuki Chika was better.
Ever since he saw that fruit that night, he had been thinking about this question.
Upon arriving in Hangzhou, Mo Fan found Tang Yue on the island in the middle of the lake. He simply took a boat there, and since his clansmen all knew him, they let him pass easily.
Tang Yue was reading a book by the pavilion, and also keeping the totem snake company. She would come here every now and then, which was like reporting her life to her elders.
"Teacher Tang Yue, you seem to have a lot of free time today," Mo Fan said upon arrival.
When she saw Mo Fan, Teacher Tang Yue also seemed a little surprised.
Because she had heard that Mo Fan had entered the National Academy team. Logically speaking, if Mo Fan's cultivation level was high enough to be eliminated, then how strong would the National Academy team be this year?
"You...you're not going to be eliminated, are you??" Teacher Tang Yue looked at Mo Fan with a puzzled expression.
"Of course not." Mo Fan shook his head.
"Then why did you come back?"
"Sigh, I just missed Teacher Tang Yue, so I came back to see you," Mo Fan said.
Upon hearing this, Teacher Tang Yue rolled her eyes at Mo Fan in an annoyed manner.
I don't believe you!
"When I was training in the cherry blossoms, I obtained a treasure that was very useful to me, but I couldn't use it myself. I needed Old Man Bao to help me deal with it, so I came back," Mo Fan said.
"What treasure?" Tang Yue asked curiously.
Mo Fan came to Tang Yue's side, sat down, and casually put his arm around her.
"Stop it~" Tang Yue said reproachfully, showing slight resistance.
Although this place is forbidden, it's not completely deserted. She was genuinely worried that this little beast might come up here later.
Mo Fan seemed not to hear what she said and simply pulled her onto his lap.
"I missed you, Teacher Tang Yue," Mo Fan whispered, pressing his arm against her back.
Teacher Tang Yue, who had been struggling slightly, suddenly became weak and limp.
Seeing that she couldn't stop him, Teacher Tang Yue simply leaned back on Mo Fan's shoulder, turned to look at him sweetly, and said, "Not here. Let's go back to the apartment, okay?"
"I just wanted to sit here with you for a while," Mo Fan said.
Tang Yue's oval face turned quite round with anger!
Your hand has already reached in, and you're telling me you just want to sit here for a while?
Is this seat proper?
Upon seeing this, Mo Fan chuckled, then unfurled his wings of wind, and in the next instant, he carried Teacher Tang Yue away from there.
Teacher Tang Yue had a three-day vacation, and she originally wanted to spend some time with Xuan She during her free time.
Unfortunately, because of Mo Fan's return, she didn't even leave her apartment for three days.
In these three days, she truly experienced the relentless onslaught of Mo Fan, that little beast.
Three days later, Teacher Tang Yue had no choice but to continue her mission at the trial, while Mo Fan went to find Old Man Bao.
Old Man Bao has already removed the evil thoughts from his beads.
No one knows how he did it, but Mo Fan can now use the beads.
After acquiring the bead, Mo Fan originally planned to visit the National Pavilion, but upon learning that the National Pavilion's guard, Lu Yilin, had defeated the Egyptian, he left directly for Sakura.
After arriving at Naval Battle City, Mo Fan had a persistent feeling that someone was following him.
But he didn't pay any attention to it.
Because Mochizuki Chika had already reminded him before.
But in Mo Fan's view, even if the people from Sakura were following him, they wouldn't dare to make a move at this time, unless they wanted to provoke the world.
As for why they followed him?
Mo Fan had no idea.
However, on his way back to Naval Battle City from Tokyo, a man dressed in a robe appeared before him.
Mo Fan frowned and stopped in his tracks.
Hehehe
At this moment, the person opposite them let out a strange laugh.
Mo Fan was familiar with this voice.
