Upon hearing this, Su Lan was stunned for a moment, thinking she had misheard.
Dean Xiao and Dean Fu exchanged a glance, and in the end, Dean Fu braced himself and said:
"Su Lan, I hope that Xiaomian can stay at your house and stay with you for the time being. With your help, she can control her power more quickly and you can protect her."
As the dean and vice dean of the magic academy, they went to great lengths to help Ding Yumin control her calamity power as soon as possible.
This last point is a solution proposed by Dean Xiao and Dean Fu based on the current international situation, Su Lan's background, and Ding Yumin's growth needs.
Especially Dean Fu.
He was just a high-level mage, old and with his future nearing its end; how long he could protect Ding Yumin was still unknown.
Dean Fu is not young, but he still insists on going to the front line to fight the sirens.
Whether tomorrow or an accident will happen is unknown.
If something really happens to him, what will Ding Yumin do?
Dean Xiao, a close friend, could protect Ding Yumin for a time, but not for a lifetime.
Especially after he leaves, he will have to face pressure from the Holy City in the future.
On the contrary, Su Lan, who is now in front of them, is a very good person to entrust with their affairs.
Every time Ding Yumin's mental magic energy went out of control, the powerful figure guarding Su Lan was able to instantly control Ding Yumin's rampaging power.
After Dean Xiao said that he also couldn't see the strength of the person guarding Su Lan, Dean Fu had the idea of entrusting the child to someone else.
As a longtime friend of Dean Xiao, he had some guesses about Dean Xiao's abilities.
They must be at least a powerful expert with two forbidden spells.
Dean Fu could feel even more at ease knowing that a powerful expert whose strength even a beginner second-level forbidden spell mage couldn't fathom was someone he could rely on.
Moreover, after a year of observation, although Su Lan is a bit of a womanizer, he is genuinely good to the people around him.
Dean Fu has high hopes for Su Lan, and even thinks that Su Lan might be able to break through the existing limits of Great Xia in the future.
While Dean Fu and Dean Xiao were doing their best to get Su Lan to take care of Ding Yumin, Ding Yumin, who was sitting to the side and already knew the situation, blushed instantly.
The last thing Dean Fu and Dean Xiao talked about today was something Ding Yumin had heard Dean Fu mention before.
But despite her words, she wasn't so calm when the moment actually arrived.
Moreover, she felt that Dean Fu's words were somewhat inaccurate.
He no longer wanted Su Lan to help him improve his control over mind-based magic; he wanted to entrust himself directly to Su Lan.
This sudden turn of events was something Ding Yumin couldn't handle.
Therefore, Ding Yumin's power was about to go berserk.
The three people sitting to the side immediately noticed Ding Yumin's change.
Before they could do anything, a slender finger appeared out of thin air and gently touched Ding Yumin's brow.
The mental energy that was about to spiral out of control retreated directly into Ding Yumin's mental universe, like a cat seeing a mouse.
After controlling Ding Yumin's mental power, the owner of the slender hand disappeared from the spot once again.
Ding Yumin regained some composure, though her face remained flushed. She looked down at her knees, not daring to raise her head.
Serafina's sudden move only surprised Dean Xiao and Dean Fu for a moment, leaving them with only complex emotions and awe.
They were all unable to suppress Ding Yumin's out-of-control mental power, yet this being resolved it with ease.
While Dean Xiao and Dean Fu were experiencing complex emotions, Su Lan remained completely unaffected.
"Yu Mian and I are friends, and Xin Xia often talks about her. Of course, we welcome Yu Mian to come and live with us."
After spending time together, Su Lan also came to understand Ding Yumin's personality and character.
To be honest, she is a girl who is not only exceptionally talented and beautiful, but also gentle yet stubborn.
Although I sometimes look downcast because I miss my deceased relatives.
But they never let these negative emotions affect other people.
The loss of control over mental power is simply due to emotions exceeding a certain threshold, leading to an inability to control them.
Sometimes, the loss of control over mental power has nothing to do with Ding Yumin's mood; it is purely an overflow of energy that has gone out of control.
A girl who is excellent in every way and will undoubtedly reach the pinnacle of forbidden magic in the future—it would be a lie to say I'm not tempted.
Therefore, he gladly accepted the entrustment from Dean Xiao and Dean Fu.
Now it all depends on Ding Yumin's attitude.
As expected, Dean Xiao and Dean Fu smiled when they saw that Su Lan was willing.
Then we asked Ding Yumin for her opinion.
Ding Yumin has veto power.
If Ding Yumin is unwilling to have much contact with Su Lan, or does not want to take her relationship with Su Lan any further, they will not force her.
Just because Ding Yumin didn't refuse before doesn't mean she won't refuse now.
They still need to fully consider Ding Yumin's attitude.
"I will listen to Grandpa Fu and Grandpa Xiao."
Ding Yumin looked up, her face flushed with embarrassment, and whispered her answer.
When Ding Yumin said "I'm willing," the tone of the matter was set.
Ding Yumin did not move into Su Lan's villa immediately; she still needed to pack her things and would move in a couple of days later.
There's no rush.
However, Su Lan suddenly felt something was wrong.
He readily agreed, but he hasn't told Ye Xinxia about it yet.
How am I supposed to explain this when I get back?
Could it be that he saw Xinxia often home alone and was afraid she was lonely?
So she brought Xinxia's best friend Ding Yumin home to keep her company.
Just as Su Lan was racking his brains for an explanation, he didn't notice that Ding Yumin was typing something on her phone with her head down.
In the eyes of Dean Xiao and Dean Fu, forcing Ding Yumin to be by Su Lan's side could very likely bring Su Lan a lot of trouble.
So they also planned to give Su Lan some compensation.
First, there are ten Star River Veins and three Star Sea Celestial Veins.
The Star River Pulse can help mid-level mages increase their success rate in advancing to high-level mages and provides energy.
Each Star River Vein has a market value of approximately 100 million Xia Kingdom coins.
The Starry Sea Celestial Vein can help high-level mages increase their success rate in advancing to super-level mages.
The Star Sea Celestial Vein is far more valuable than the Star River Vein, and it is basically not circulated in the market; it is mainly traded among major families and powerful forces.
As for value, each Xinghai Tianmai is priced between 1.5 billion and 2 billion.
If there is a shortage, the price can surge to three or four billion.
There is no fixed price.
This time, Dean Fu directly pulled out ten Star River Veins and three Star Sea Heavenly Veins, which felt like he was going to empty Dean Fu's coffers.
After all, the resources in front of us are worth nearly 6 billion Daxia coins.
Don't be fooled by the fact that Dean Fu is already a super-level mage.
However, while mages have high incomes, the expenses for maintaining and improving their combat power are also considerable.
Su Lan did not accept this resource.
Given the size of the Alien Hunters and Serafina behind Su Lan, the essence of a Supreme Monarch is worth about five or six billion.
The Star River Vein and the Star Sea Celestial Vein, [Alien] also collected a batch.
That's right.
Not just a few, but a whole batch!
These were all obtained through bartering with various powerful families.
