1754 Bus Trip (1/2)

Mo Fan did not expect Mui Nujiao to use such an approach to deal with the matter. However, when he calmed down and analyzed the situation, it was true that people were only looking for a way to vent their anger and frustration while they were not thinking straight.

”I'll handle it for you. You should disappear and focus on your cultivation for some time. Once the wind starts to blow in the opposite direction, you will show yourself and clear your name. You won't have to waste your time running around in vain for now,” Mui Nujiao said.

”Alright,” Mo Fan nodded.

Ai Tutu was still holding a grudge against Mo Fan. She blurted out, ”Jiaojiao, you have almost become this demon king's personal assistant. Why are you being so nice to him? Let him settle his own mess!”

”I'm hoping that he can be the ambassador of my high school for mages. I don't want his reputation to be ruined,” Mui Nujiao smiled and responded naturally.

Mo Fan was very inept about matters like this. He was glad that Mui Nujiao was willing to help.

Mo Fan cast his thoughts aside and prepared to focus on his cultivation. The Pearl Institute was a suitable place for him to cultivate in seclusion. The facilities and the atmosphere would urge him to work diligently.

Mo Fan knew he was currently in the teeth of the storm. He decided to put on a pair of frameless black glasses and perm his hair. He also let his fringe cover his forehead.

He suddenly went from a clean, manly, passionate young man to a quiet gentleman. He was able to blend into the students of the Pearl Institute easily.

Mo Fan was well-behaved, and spent a peaceful week at the Pearl Institute. He kept seeing the same young girls taking a few sneak peeks at him while they were pretending to take some rest from their studies at the spots where Mo Fan usually went for his meditation. As he thought, his charm was still undeniable even when he was not interacting with anyone, feeding his narcissism!

One day, Mo Fan sat on the grass under a huge tree at dawn just like usual. He enjoyed meditating here because of the fresh air.

”Morning!” Mo Fan noticed an ordinary-dressed woman placing a huge newspaper down beside a flowerbush less than five meters away before sitting on the ground.

Mo Fan greeted the woman casually. He kept stumbling into her over the week, even though they would mind their own business most of the time. They just greeted one another casually.

”Morning,” the woman replied with a smile. She was the shy but polite kind.

Mo Fan did not flirt with the woman any further. He was about to close his eyes to focus on practicing the complicated Lightning Star Palace when he noticed the woman still staring at him from the corner of his eye, like she had something to say to him.

”Are you an Earth Mage?” the woman asked softly.

”Yeah,” Mo Fan confirmed with a nod.

Mo Fan was able to hide his Lightning Element well, but was still struggling to hide his Earth Element. The presence of the Earth Magic would sometimes linger close to him.

”Oh… Well, I've joined the Earth Element Club. The club is holding an unusual gathering that is open for students of our school. Are you interested in it?” the woman asked.

A gathering for students with the Earth Element?

Mo Fan had never participated in gatherings like this, but it was actually quite important for Elemental Magic. Since Mo Fan was a total newbie with his Earth Element, he might be able to prevent his Earth Element from going astray by listening to other Earth Mages' experiences.

”Sure, I was planning to practice my Earth Element. The gathering is perfect!” Mo Fan said.
