“Did you go to the South Wing Platoon? We were quite shocked, too. Why did they suddenly appoint you as the chief?” Yu Shishi had to ask.
“They didn’t treat me seriously at first. They simply asked me to fill out a form, but their expressions shifted after I wrote down Super Level as my cultivation level. They accused me of lying, so I showed them my Super Ice Spell and came back here,” Mu Bai told them.
“HAHAHA, I bet those people of the South Wing Platoon are dumbfounded. They didn’t expect us to have such a young Super Mage. Well done, as expected of someone from our Mu Clan!” Mu Zhuoyun sat beside Mu Bai and patted him heavily on the shoulder.
The Mu Clan of Bo City finally had a reliable man. They could finally show the Mu Clan of the capital a piece of their mind! The Mu Clan of Bo City whom they had mistreated now had a Super Mage! Fanxue Mountain was going to make them regret abandoning them and driving them away in the past!

“Uncle, please don’t mention it. I’m still a little lacking compared to Mu Ningxue,” Mu Bai said humbly.
He might have reached the Super Level, but he was still no match for Mu Ningxue. Her Ice Domain completely suppressed his Ice Magic!
“You’re already very impressive. How many people in our country are able to achieve the Super Level at your age? You are the strongest young adult in Feiniao City from now on! You’re the South Wing Chief, you deserve all the attention you’re getting!” Mu Zhuoyun declared with a loud voice.
The people in the hall cheered. Most of them were young Mages in the Advanced or Intermediate Levels. Some were part of management, while others were pure fighters. When they had first joined Fanxue Mountain, they had been betting on Fanxue Mountain’s future. After all, Fanxue Mountain lacked Super Mages who could keep everything under control in the past.
The difference between a renowned clan and a small family was whether they had a Super Mage among them!
Since Fanxue Mountain now had a Super Mage, no one would dare to underestimate them again. They now had more credibility to the government, Magic Association, and the military, on top of the rest of the factions out there!
“Uncle, I still have no idea what the South Wing Platoon’s duties are. I prefer to stay in Fanxue Mountain. I’m not used to being ordered around,” Mu Bai admitted.
Mu Bai initially thought he was merely going through the motions when he went to the South Wing Platoon. He was feeling a little guilty after beating the crap out of the South Wing Platoon’s prospective chief. He did not expect to receive a letter of appointment in return!
Mu Bai had not opened the letter yet. He would only become the South Wing Chief officially after reporting in tomorrow morning.
“Mu Bai, don’t you worry about that. The South Wing Platoon is different from other groups. First, the South Wing Platoon isn’t under the jurisdiction of the Magic Association, despite being a subsidiary. Every South Wing Mage retains their freedom. You are still considered a member of Fanxue Mountain. Only when the city is in great danger or facing a huge threat will the South Wing Mages have to obey the South Wing Chief’s orders.
“Fanxue Mountain coexists with Feiniao City, thus Fanxue Mountain has the obligation to guarantee Feiniao City’s safety. Therefore, it’s not really a huge difference if you become the South Wing Chief. You won’t even have to report every day if the city isn’t under any threats,” Mu Linsheng explained to Mu Bai.
“Besides, our Fanxue Mountain occupies a huge portion of Feiniao City’s land. Many factions are jealous of us, and the government might pick on us, too. If you are the South Wing Chief, we’ll have more say in the government. Our rivals will consider your role if they are planning to trouble us. Ningxue is Fanxue Mountain’s flagship, it’s unlikely she will be able to join other organizations, since she’s our leader. Therefore, you are the perfect candidate for the role of the South Wing Chief!” Mu Zhuoyun explained to him.
“I see. It’s not too bad, then. Otherwise, I will feel like I’m not doing much in Fanxue Mountain,” Mu Bai nodded understanding. He believed it was the right thing to do if it could benefit Fanxue Mountain.
“Being able to carry huge responsibilities on your shoulders… Mu Bai, you’ve truly grown into a reliable man. I’m pleased on behalf of your mother,” Mi Zhuoyun sighed. It’s mainly because I was too useless. I wasn’t able to take good care of the family. I had to rely on you kids. You’ve all suffered a lot over these years…” Mu Zhuoyun had drunk quite a lot. He was starting to get a little emotional.
“Brother Zhuoyun, you’ve been drinking a little too much. Here, help Zhuoyun to his room,” Mu Linsheng spoke up quickly.
“Yeah, I’ve drunk too much. Let’s talk about something else instead. Either way, I’m really proud of you all after seeing how much you have grown. I’m also grateful for everyone here who put their trust in Fanxue Mountain. Don’t worry, we will not fall. We will only become stronger!” Mu Zhuoyun gave everyone a toast before staggering out the door.
“We will not fall. We will only become stronger! Cheers!” the crowd exclaimed.
Fanxue Mountain had gone from a barren mountain to its current prosperity. Everyone was betting their youth and future on it. Fanxue Mountain was now on the right track. It was not far away from shining gloriously!
Mu Ningxue glanced after her drunken father. She could tell that the man was genuinely happy.
Mu Bai was a real member of their family. Mu Zhuoyun had to be pleased after seeing how much Mu Bai had grown.

The Magic City…
At the Pearl Institute, a golden-haired man driving a luxurious car did a huge drift and parked the car in front of an apartment. He ran up the escalator angrily.
He kicked the door that was unlocked open and slammed down into the couch. He glanced at Ai Tutu, who was eating popcorn while enjoying her drama there, and demanded, “Why hasn’t that assh*** returned from Guangzhou?”
“He’s upstairs,” Ai Tutu told him without looking over.
“F**k me, he didn’t bother telling me that he’s back. Assh***, come out here!” Zhao Manyan yelled without going upstairs.
Mo Fan was still half-asleep. He came out of his room in sleepwear and yawned when he saw Zhao Manyan. “Do you all have dog noses or something? How do you all know I’m back so quickly every time? I just wanted a nice sleep. I was treated like a lab rat for so long…”
“Take a look at this yourself!” Zhao Manyan tossed a newspaper at Mo Fan.
Mo Fan picked up the newspaper and skimmed through it. His eyes glittered when he spoke, “Mu Bai has made a name for himself after a single duel? Oh my, not bad, Green Tea Man! He was even appointed as the South Wing Chief! That’s good news, why are you so angry about it?”
“Good news my ass! I was able to bully him with a single hand before we visited the Pyramid, but I’m still stuck at the Advanced Level while he’s already becoming a f**king legend!… We are leaving tomorrow. If you don’t, I’ll be holding a knife against your throat and force you to go with me!” Zhao Manyan snarled.
There was nothing more infuriating than being left behind by his friends!
