Chapter 2852: Magic City’s Choice

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

It was not very difficult to find someone especially if they weren’t disguising themselves. However, time was of the essence.

Eagle-winged Shaoli was too anxious. He had very little time and did not want to waste it arguing with Shaoxu. He had to find Mo Fan.

Eagle-winged Shaoli let out a sigh of relief when he found out Mo Fan’s whereabouts.

With his speed, he could bring Mo Fan back within eight hours. He could call many spirit birds and beasts to assist him with the Divine Sense of Flying Bird. He could save a lot of time if he talked to some strong spirit birds and beasts to bring Mo Fan to the east to meet him.

“I’ll take you guys to a safer place first. Make sure you protect yourselves. I must find Mo Fan and bring him to the Bund now,” said Eagle-winged Shaoli.

Several vicious and powerful ruler-level demons had been trampling on the neighborhood, ruining the prosperous city. The demons had hidden in another block.

“Shaoli, that’s not the point.” Jiang Shaoxu hurriedly stopped him.

“What do you mean? I must take Mo Fan to the Bund within eight hours. President Hong Wu, Chief, Fire God, and Dean Xiao are all waiting for me. Is there anything more important than dealing with the Demon Lord who is about to drown Magic Base City?” Eagle-winged Shaoli said sternly.

They exchanged glances. ‘What’s going on?’

They were in urgent need of Dean Xiao. Only his Forbidden Water Element magic could incite a heavy rain across several provinces and revive all the Ancient Great Walls to awaken the Sacred Totem Beast.

However, the Forbidden Curse Association needed Mo Fan’s fusion magic to break the strange and powerful ability of magic disintegration. In any case, Mo Fan must be brought to the battlefield of the Bund of Magic City within eight hours!

Eagle-winged Shaoli listened to Jiang Shaoxu’s explanation, and he was troubled.

“Maybe we should consider the greater good,” Mr. Bai Mei said tentatively.

Eagle-winged Shaoli, Jiang Shaoxu, Mu Bai, Zhao Manyan, and Song Feiyao all nodded.

“Let Mo Fan come to the Bund,” said Eagle-winged Shaoli.

“Let us take Dean Xiao away,” said Jiang Shaoxu at the same time.

Everyone fell silent. Both had different perspectives and plans. It meant that there was a serious clash of opinion between the Forbidden Curse Association and the Sacred Totem Beast exploration team.

The Forbidden Curse Association would not let Dean Xiao leave. After all, the importance of a Water Element Mage who could complete the forbidden magic independently in Magic City surpassed that of several Forbidden Mages of other elements.

On the other hand, they were convinced that the Sacred Totem Beast existed and lived in China. The Sacred Totem Beast would appear again if only it rained with the Underground Holy Spring essence.

The strength and power of the Sacred Totem Beast could turn the tables on the current situation.

“You guys should obey the Forbidden Curse Association,” said Eagle-winged Shaoli solemnly.

If the two sides disagreed, it would only continue to waste time.

Regardless of who held the authority, the Mages should obey orders especially in a time of crisis. So, considering that, they needed to deal with the Cold Moon Demon Lord first. After all, it had pierced through the sky, resulting in countless cold waterfalls. It had even summoned the Heaven-shaking Demonic Waves.

Magic Base City was in peril. Even if the Sacred Totem Beast existed, they could find it after dealing with the Cold Moon Demon Lord.

“Shaoli, it’s useless to discuss this here. Let us meet the president and Dean Xiao so they can make a choice,” said Jiang Shaoxu.

Eagle-winged Shaoli nodded. It was not something they could decide here.

“I’ll take you guys there now but be careful not to come into the sight of the Demon Lord,” said Eagle-winged Shaoli.

…

He took them towards the Bund. The Prime Waves were still standing, and they almost surpassed the landmarks of Magic City.

There was a vague outline of a face made of water. It looked cold and evil.

The Demon Lord was still calm and indifferent. It did not even bother to take action against the Forbidden Mages. It was more like a ruler standing on a higher plane and watching the weak and stupid species spend all their time trying to break through the labyrinth cage set by it.

“President!” Eagle-winged Shaoli arrived, but he did not dare to move closer with the fear of appearing in the line of sight of the Cold Moon Demon Lord.

“Why haven’t you looked for Mo Fan yet? When did you become such a reckless guy?” President Hong Wu said angrily.

“I must discuss this matter with you and Dean Xiao.”

“There’s nothing to discuss. Go and find Mo Fan now!” Hong Wu was furious. What they wanted now was action instead of futile discussions.

“President, let’s listen to him. We can’t rush it,” said Dean Xiao.

Dean Xiao saw Mr. Bai Mei, Zhao Manyan, Mu Bai, and Song Feiyao.

Dean Xiao remembered that Mo Fan had sent him a video of them riding the Green East Sea God before he went to search for the Sacred Totem Beasts. Only Mo Fan was missing from this group at the moment.

Dean Xiao knew exactly what kind of a person Mo Fan was. There must be an important reason if he did not make it back.

Eagle-winged Shaoli reported the matter of Sacred Totem Beast to the president and Dean Xiao.

After listening to him, Dean Xiao went silent.

However, President Hong Wu was enraged. “What a fool! Ancient sacred relics are indeed important, but the base city is about to go extinct. Is there a need to make a choice? Bring Mo Fan over now. Tie him up if you have to do so!”

“President,” said Dean Xiao.

“Dean Xiao, you don’t have to try to persuade me. I know your students did it for Magic City and all of us, but it is clear which is more important. Besides, all traces of Sacred Totem Beast are just guesses. As the president of the Magic Association, I can’t make such a hasty and unrealistic decision,” said President Hong Wu.

“President, I think you have misunderstood. It is not your choice or Mo Fan’s choice that matters, but mine,” Dean Xiao calmly said to President Hong Wu.

President Hong Wu was stunned. “What is your choice?”

“I’ll go and make the rain to awaken the Sacred Totem Beast,” Dean Xiao answered.

“Dean Xiao!” President Hong Wu could not believe his ears. “You would rather believe your students than the Forbidden Curse Association?”

“No, I don’t trust any of you. I only trust my own judgment.” Dean Xiao shook his head. Finally, he pointed his finger at the evil and extremely powerful Cold Moon Demon Lord. “That is deliberately wasting the time of Forbidden Mages.”
