Mo Fan immediately hugged Tangyue following his words. Tangyue was startled, yet she did not reject Mo Fan’s friendly hug.

Meanwhile, Zhao Manyan was not feeling comfortable when he saw the mature beauty allowing Mo Fan to take advantage of her so easily, especially when she was sticking her huge bust so close to Mo Fan’s chest!

Since when was that idiot better at picking up chicks than him!?

“Why are you here?” Tangyue was surprised.

She had not seen Mo Fan after being reassigned to Nanxi Mountain. The two might promise to meet one another whenever they called one another, but they both seemed to be too busy in their own ways.

Tangyue had been extremely busy over the years. Nanxi Mountain was a lot more complicated than Beiyu Mountain. Tang Zhong was having trouble controlling Nanxi Mountain Enforcement Union as the Chief of the Lingyin Enforcement Union. However, since Nanxi Mountain Enforcement was actually subordinate to the Lingyin Enforcement Union, he had no intention to let it run itself. He had assigned Tangyue here to make sure everything was in order.

Zhu Min was the son of Nanxi Mountain Enforcement Union’s Cheif. Tangyue was extremely fed up with him. He had only achieved his current level of cultivation after being fed a lot of resources, most of them from the Enforcement Union.

The resources of the Enforcement Union were meant to be distributed to the Enforcers and probationary Enforcers with outstanding talents. A man like Zhu Min did not deserve anything!

“I just happened to pass by the town. We came to eat since we were feeling quite hungry. I didn’t expect Miss Tangyue to be on duty here,” Mo Fan said.

He did not mention the Totem Beasts in front of outsiders.

Mo Fan was still struggling to believe he had just stumbled into Tangyue here. It felt like meeting your first love in an unfamiliar town, like he would be throwing the Heavens’ kind gesture away if he did not spend the night with the woman after such a fateful encounter.

“Mm, there’s been some problem, are those your friends... oh, little Lingling is here too!” Tangyue turned around and saw Lingling immediately.

“Sister Tangyue,” Lingling answered. The little loli’s expressionless face had a surprising smile on it.

Leng Qing and Tangyue had always been close. Lingling had often visited the Lingyin Enforcement Union, too.

“You’ve grown into such a beauty too,” Tangyue walked up to Lingling and kissed her on the forehead.

“Sister Tangyue, please stop, I’m not a kid anymore,” Lingling blushed embarrassedly.

Zhao Manyan could not help but take a sip from his glass when he saw Tangyue’s red lips kissing Lingling on the forehead. He slowly lowered his gaze and stared at Tangyue’s chest.

How big, how round, how firm, how spectacular!

Mo Fan introduced Tangyue to Jiang Shaoxu and the pervert Zhao. Tangyue smiled, indicating that she knew who they were. After all, they were both on the national team that had won the World College Tournament for the country. That being said, she had a little trouble recognizing Zhao Manyan, since he had done some cosmetic surgery on his face so that the Zhao Family would not learn he was still alive!

“This is my assistant, Li Dong. This is an intern, Zhu Min,” Tangyue said.

“Nice to meet you all, I’m Li Dong from the Dali Clan. I’m currently assisting the Vice Chief of Nanxi Mountain Enforcement Union. I heard my men at the checkpoint say that a few Mages had come into town. They must have been referring to you,” Li Dong greeted them in a friendly manner.

“Yeah, Mo Fan is a busybody. He likes going to every place that has trouble.” Jiang Shaoxu gave Mo Fan a disdainful glare.

Mo Fan rubbed his nose and said, “Do I?”

Lingling and Zhao Manyan nodded simultaneously.

“It’s called a Hunter’s nose. I can’t help with it. A Hunter is most worried when nothing happens, since it means there’s no job for us. Don’t you agree, Lingling?” Mo Fan shrugged helplessly.

Lingling nodded. Mo Fan was not wrong about that. Many Hunters would follow the Enforcement Union around, since it often meant they would be able to receive quests with high rewards as soon as they were available.

“What happened here?” Mo Fan asked Tangyue.

“A strange poisonous species have been showing up lately. More than a hundred people have fallen sick. We still can’t figure out a cure or an antidote for the poison. The town mayor contacted the Magic Association, which decided to let the Enforcement Union take over after assessing the situation,” Tangyue explained.

“A contagious poison is the most troublesome. It can easily turn into a plague if it’s not handled properly,” Lingling murmured.

“Yes, the Magic Association is worried that it might turn into a plague, too. Everyone has been sensitive about things like this after the plague in Hangzhou,” Tangyue agreed.

“Did you find the creature responsible for the poison? You’ve solved half the case if you can find the source of the poison,” Mo Fan said.

“Hah, we had a chance to catch it this evening, but some dumbass let it escape because of a silly mistake,” Tangyue said.

Mo Fan glanced at the man named Zhu Min. He could tell the young man was the arrogant kind.

Tangyue usually had a good temper, and was very patient with students, too. She was obviously fed up with Zhu Min if she held such a strong grudge against him.

“Did you need any help?” Mo Fan asked.

Zhao Manyan immediately rolled his eyes after hearing Mo Fan’s words.

Didn’t Mo Fan promise to help him look for Totem Beasts? Why was he offering his beautiful former teacher help instead?

“Since when does the Enforcement Union need help from outsiders like you?” Zhu Min interrupted coldly when he finally found a chance to speak.

The Enforcement Union mainly dealt with confidential matters. Zhu Min believed it was inappropriate for Tangyue to be telling others so much information.

“Just ignore him,” Tangyue shot down Zhu Min’s remark right away. Zhu Min was so angry that his face turned the same color as the vegetables on the table.

“Lingling, help me look for the poisonous creature. It shouldn’t take you too long,” Tangyue said.

“Of course!”

——

Tangyue brought them to a teahouse close to the lake after dinner. She did not bring her two subordinates along, so she could explain everything in detail to Lingling.

Both Lingling and Mo Fan were Seven Star Hunter Masters. The Enforcement Union was an organization under the government. They would often struggle to handle certain dubious situations, which experienced Hunters were often better at.

“Sister Tangyue, did you say the poisonous creature might be hiding in a cave on Dawn Island?” Lingling asked.

“Mm, a rich foreigner bought the island around twenty years ago. It was turned into a domestication form for the Featherless Birds, training them into becoming mounts for mercenaries, but his plan failed, and he went bankrupt around ten years ago. The government didn’t take over the island, so the ranch turned into a wasteland. The Featherless Birds eventually turned into wild demon creatures when no one was controlling them, so the island is basically a big nest of demon creatures now. We tried to hunt down the poisonous creature on Dawn Island, but the Featherless Birds have a strong sense of territory...”
