1665 Could That Be Yan Shi? (1/2)

Mo Fan initially thought Lingling had urged him to return to his country because she had something urgent to do, or she had found the secrets of a quest with an impressive reward. However, the little girl was reluctant to spill the beans now that he was back. She even put on an expression that was shunning him because he was still stuck in the Advanced Level!
Mo Fan wanted to advance to the Super Level, but he was struggling to find the right way to trigger the breakthrough. The renowned clans were able to find compatible ways and resources to aid their talented disciples with their breakthroughs. So far, the only resource that might come in handy that Mo Fan knew of was the power of the Totem Beasts. The problem was, the Totem Beasts were either hibernating, living in seclusion, or had gone extinct. It was not easy to track them down!
”Forget it if you haven't reached the Super Level!” Lingling decided to hold on to her little secret.
Mo Fan had promised Zu Xiangtian he would face him in a duel in half a year from now. He could not afford to lose the duel. He also felt the urgency to reach the Super Level as soon as possible!
”I found something called the Horn of the Deer God in Athens. Your sister told me that it might be related to the Enforcement Union's Tree of Vows. I'm thinking of visiting the Lingyin Enforcement Union. I'll also drop by the temple at the lake to see if I can find any Totem Seals that resemble it,” Mo Fan told her.
”We'll go together,” Mu Ningxue said.
Mu Ningxue did not like to procrastinate. Mo Fan was initially planning to get some rest for the day and go on a date with Mu Ningxue in a romantic park. He might have the chance to make some bold moves today. Mo Fan had been drooling over Mu Ningxue's body for a decade!
”I've asked Nighthawk to give us a ride,” Lingling said.
Lingling texted Nighthawk. A few minutes later, Nighthawk arrived on his ferocious beast.
Nighthawk was wearing a dark blue outfit, and had a dark and cold bearing. His jawbone was extremely sharp, like it had been sharpened with a blade. He did not look like a good person at all.
However, his bearing as an Enforcer collapsed as soon as he was around Lingling. He put on an awkward smile when he saw her.
”Lingling, I'm not a taxi driver. You can't just ask me to give you a ride whenever you want. It's my bad for not telling you I was taking over your sister's role, but the Enforcement Union is responsible for maintaining order. We can't leave our positions for too long!” Nighthawk chided her.
Nighthawk only noticed Mo Fan and Mu Ningxue were there after finishing the sentence. He seemed a little surprised.
”Nighthawk, it's been a while!” Mo Fan greeted him.
Nighthawk was reassigned to Beiyu Mountain. He was going to be promoted to the Head of the Enforcement Union there, but Lu Zhantian had seized it with his connections instead. Nighthawk lost the chance to be promoted, but to his relief, the Lu Clan was stupid enough to touch Mo Fan's inverse scale. Mo Fan ended up forcing his way up Beiyu Mountain and killing Lu Zhantian!
Mo Fan fell out with the Lu Clan over the incident. If Shao Zheng had not been looking after him, the Lu Clan would have sent a Super Mage after Mo Fan!
Nighthawk did not stay at Beiyu Mountain. The head of the Enforcement Union had asked him to replace Leng Qing instead, so now was currently the Vice Head of the Lingyin Enforcement Union and taking orders from Tang Zhong.
The Beiyu Enforcement Union and the Lingyin Enforcement Union were in charge of the Magic City and Hangzhou, respectively. The Lingyin Enforcement Union was considered one of its main headquarters in the country, so Nighthawk had clearly managed to make a name for himself by getting appointed as the Vice Head of the Lingyin Enforcement Union.
”Yeah, it's been a while! Did you reach the Super Level?” Nighthawk suddenly asked.
”Not yet! Strange, why is everyone more concerned about my cultivation than I am?” Mo Fan had to ask.
”That's a relief!… Hehe, I was already an expert at the Advanced Level when you were still an Intermediate Mage at the Pearl Institute. If you were at the Super Level like I am now, wouldn't that mean I'm a good for nothing?” Nighthawk replied proudly.
Nighthawk was a lot stronger than Mo Fan when he was taking out the Black Vatican in the Magic City. He would feel ashamed if Mo Fan had already caught up to his cultivation!
”Sir, we are heading to Lingyin Mountain. Please drive safely, we have ladies on board!” Mo Fan said firmly.
Seriously, he had never seen a taxi driver so dramatic; it was time to leave a bad review!
Nighthawk was struck speechless.

It was a lot quicker to fly to Lingyin Mountain. It only took them around twenty minutes to reach Hangzhou's West Lake from Shanghai's Jing'an District!
Huge bubbles surfaced on the lake as they flew past the West Lake. Apas subconsciously trembled in fear, feeling an overwhelming sense of danger arising from the lake below.
”It's salty, I've brought you five kilos of them!” Mo Fan yelled at the lake. He tossed a whole bucket of salted prawns down at the lake from his Space Bracelet.
The prawns poured down into the lake like rain.
To prevent the food from dirtying the lake, a huge head rose from the water and opened its mouth to receive the prawns.
