"Every clan, renowned clan, and renowned clan has their own private territory, which is guarded by the Mages of the clan. However, to ensure the safety of these private territories, the Magic Association will conduct an assessment every year. They will also collect the feedback of the local Hunters. Once they discover any potential threats, they will immediately request the clan to conduct a clean-up operation on the territory. Normally, every clan should consciously clean up their territory and the surrounding area within a certain period of time to ensure the safety of the residents. However, due to the huge expenditure of manpower and money, most clans won't take the initiative to clean up the territory unless the Magic Association demands it, "Mu Ningxue said.
"That's not a good thing," Mofan said.
"I know, that's why I won't allow something like that to happen in my clan. Even if I'm short on funds, I can't just ignore the safety of my clan," Mu Ningxue said sternly.
"Speaking of which, if we clean up the land we bought and ask the people of the Magic Association to evaluate it, and the results are good, that fatty can't possibly lie through his teeth and not let us pass the test," Mo Fan said.
"Actually …" Mu Ningxue said after a slight hesitation, "I actually asked for the land to be cleaned up when I bought it, so if we want to clean it up again, we won't have the money for the time being."
"Ah …" Mofan scratched his head. He suddenly realized how troublesome and troublesome it was to establish a clan. On top of that, Mu Ningxue was being set up by the Magic Association, too. The land had already been cleaned and met the requirements, yet the fatty from the Magic Association insisted on blocking her way. Most importantly, the local Magic Association had already evaluated the land, yet he still refused to accept it.
"If it doesn't work, we'll have to find another land," Mu Ningxue said with a sigh.
"Do you have a suitable one?" Mofan asked.
"The price of a land that hasn't been cleaned up is a lot lower. If we still have to clean it up ourselves in order to pass the test, we can consider buying a bigger land. There's one on the other side of Feiniao City. As a matter of fact, it's the most ideal place for us, since the development of Feiniao City will be happening there in the future. Unfortunately, the land is too huge. It's going to cost a fortune to clean it up," Mu Ningxue said.
"Isn't there any other way?" Mofan asked.
"It's a lot simpler if we have a barrier around us. The barrier is able to repel the demon creatures, but a barrier that can cover such a small area will require a City Pistil. No city is willing to lend us their City Pistil to clean up the demon creatures," Mu Ningxue said.
"Earth Pistil is the City Pistil?" Mofan.
"Mmm," Mu Ningxue nodded.
"If we have an Earth Pistil, how long will it take to clean up the bigger land you mentioned?" Mofan asked.
"Three days is enough, and we won't need a lot of people," Mu Ningxue said.
"I should be able to borrow an Earth Pistil. You can go and buy the land," Mofan said.
Mu Ningxue looked at him in confusion.
The Earth Pistil was related to the safety of a city. Mu Ningxue did not believe Mofan could make the City Pistil lose its safety for three days just to clean up an unimportant piece of land. The Earth Pistil was a priceless treasure. Most of them were still in the hands of the military and government. She had never heard of any renowned clan or clan borrowing an Earth Pistil to clean up an unimportant piece of land.
"What is it? Do you think I can't do it?" Mofan chuckled when he saw the doubt in Mu Ningxue's eyes.
"Mmm, it's not that easy to borrow an Earth Pistil. I don't think the Ancient Capital will lend it to you for your private use," Mu Ningxue said.
"Why don't we make a bet? If I manage to borrow an Earth Pistil, you'll give me a kiss!" Mofan raised his brows.
"Can't you ask for something else?" Mu Ningxue snapped.
"That's all I'm after," Mofan said.
Mu Ningxue hesitated. She was familiar with Mofan's character. The fact that he had made such a request meant that he was confident.
However, was it really possible to borrow an Earth Pistil? According to Mu Ningxue's knowledge, even someone like Mu Gong might not be able to borrow one.
"Sure." Mu Ningxue gave it some thought. She simply assumed that Mofan was joking with her. She did not mind his shameless request.
After returning to the apartment, Mofan asked Mu Ningxue to rest in the living room while he went to the balcony to make a call.
Mofan had purposely left Li Man and Staff Officer Shao's numbers behind when he left the Tarim Basin Fortress. The Earth Pistil was with Staff Officer Shao, so he could just call her and ask her about it.
"You want to use the Earth Pistil to clean up the place?" Staff Officer Shao sounded surprised. As a matter of fact, the Earth Pistil was mainly used as a barrier to protect a certain area. It was overkill to use it for cleaning up the place. After all, the Earth Pistil was one of the most precious human artifacts.
"Mmm, just three days," Mofan said.
"You're really imaginative, but which clan is so domineering to use the Earth Pistil to clean up the place?" Staff Officer Shao asked with a smile.
"It's the clan that my wife founded. We're relatively poor, so we can't afford to hire someone to clean up the place. I heard from Li Man that you're still looking for a suitable land to build a new fortress, so you won't be using the Earth Pistil for now, so I'm trying to save some money," Mofan said bluntly.
"You're the one who got the Earth Pistil back. Take it if you want to use it. I'll ask Li Man to deliver it to you tomorrow. You can keep using it until we find a new land for the fortress," Staff Officer Shao said.
"That won't be necessary. I know what's more important," Mofan said.
The Tarim Basin Fortress had been abandoned. It was a western city that could house hundreds of thousands of people. It was the result of the blood, sweat, and tears of countless people. If a new Earth Pistil could not be found, many people would fall into despair. Mofan knew how precious the Earth Pistil was, so he was not interested in it. He only wanted to borrow it for a few days.
"Sure, feel free to let me know if you need any help," Staff Officer Shao said.
"Lend Li Man to me for a few days too," Mofan said.
"Sure, why don't I let her marry you? You don't have to return her to me in the future," Staff Officer Shao said with a smile.
"HAHAHA, as long as she's willing, I don't have any objections. I can't say no to beautiful women," Mofan said.
Mofan's face was full of smiles now that he had settled the matter.
Mofan was even more excited when he thought about how he could finally kiss Mu Ningxue's sexy lips.
However, on second thought, it had taken him so long to make such a revolutionary progress. If he were to write his story into a novel, it would take at least three million words. In the end, he was only about to kiss his goddess on the lips. It did not seem like he was going to pull down the average standard.
"Xuexue, you can go and buy the land now," Mofan sat down beside Mu Ningxue with a confident smile.
"Did you really get the Earth Pistil?" Mu Ningxue looked at him. Her mouth was wide open.
"Of course!" Mofan said as he walked to the wall. He turned off a bright main light and turned on a dim yellow light and a purple spotlight.
"What are you doing?" Mu Ningxue rolled her eyes at Mofan.
"I'm trying to lighten the mood!"
“”
"Do you want some red wine or something? Oh, and some music too …" Mofan thought of something and quickly went to the bar counter. He remembered there was wine here.
When Mofan walked over with the wine, he saw Mu Ningxue's expressionless face. She was sick!
Mofan awkwardly put the wine back and sat down beside Mu Ningxue. He smiled and said, "Didn't you promise me that the Earth Pistil will be delivered tomorrow? Do you think I would use this kind of thing to trick you into giving me a kiss?"
"Let's talk about it after I get it," Mu Ningxue said coldly.
There was no way Mu Ningxue would believe Mo Fan. She recalled the time when she was still young, when she still trusted Mo Fan a lot, yet this shameless man had stolen her first kiss. It was a very simple scam, too. Someone had told her that sand had gotten into his eyes. She was just about to blow on it when she pouted her lips.
Mu Ningxue had a deep impression of this incident. She even remembered how flustered she was at that time. She didn't know why, but these emotions surged up just now, even though nothing had happened.
Actually, the feeling of being kissed was not like what was described in the books. There was heat, sweetness, and electricity. It was just that at that moment, she would tell herself that it was a kiss. She felt a little incredulous, and then she became flustered.
Mu Ningxue sat there and slowly dug out this hidden memory in her mind.
But just as she was still letting her imagination run wild, she suddenly felt a gust of hot air. Before she could regain her senses, she saw a serious face leaning towards her. Then, she felt the touch of his breath, followed by heat and electricity spreading from her lips to her whole body.
Mu Ningxue widened her eyes. She never thought that Mofan would kiss her like this when she was unprepared. She didn't take any measures, didn't push him away, didn't get angry, and only felt a little flustered …
She was still cheated.
Mu Ningxue slowly closed her eyes. Her emotions changed from flustered to complicated, but also somewhat natural.
