There were three days left until Mo Fan had to follow the Shepherd and Cheng Ying to the Black Vaticans headquarters. He had to be extremely careful; they could not afford to ask for any help, to avoid the Black Vatican from becoming suspicious.

It was the same for anyone who was trying to infiltrate the Black Vatican. It was like climbing down into a pitch-black abyss without any safety devices. You could never tell if there were traps ahead, nor how deep the abyss was...

Mo Fan did not discuss his decision with anyone. Mu Ningxue was extremely furious when she found out what Mo Fan was up to. She believed Mo Fan should at least discuss it with her. She knew Mo Fan would not necessarily take her advice, but she was still angry at Mo Fan for not telling her beforehand!

Come to Fanxue Mountain! Mu Ningxue ordered him.

But they are leaving in three days... Mo Fan said. He did not want anything to go wrong with the plan at such a crucial time.

The journey doesnt take long. Besides, isnt it riskier to be waiting there instead? The Black Vatican wont have trouble finding where you are, Mu Ningxue replied.

Youre right, Mo Fan finally agreed.

Mo Fan took a flight to Feiniao City. The trip was only a few hours long. He consumed some energy to cast a few Blinks and showed up in front of Mu Ningxue as quickly as possible.

As he expected, Mu Ningxue was clearly not in a good mood. Their relationship had been improving a lot since the establishment of Fanxue Mountain. Mo Fan was now able to hold hands with her and even give her a quick kiss sneakily at times. Their relationship was pure like middle school kids, yet judging from Mu Ningxues reactions, he believed he would not have any chance of doing so today.

Hehe... Mo Fan put on a wry smile when he saw Mu Ningxues icy expression.

Mo Fan did admit that he was being too reckless. Even though a man could do anything he wanted, he had to respect his wifes opinion too!

Put this on. Mu Ningxue stretched her hand out. There was a blue ring on her palm.

Oh my! Mo Fan stared at Mu Ningxue with wide eyes.

Was she for real? Since when did Mu Ningxue buy a pair of rings without him knowing? Shouldnt they be doing this together?

Mo Fan rubbed his head and smiled, looking at the ring. He demurred, having wild thoughts popping up. I dont think I should wear it now. If you were to say something along the lines of lets get engaged after Im back, Id be afraid I wouldnt be coming back. Last words are quite scary sometimes!

Its the Ring of Venice! Mu Ningxue snapped, rolling her eyes.

Oh, I see, its not our engagement ring? Mo Fan finally realized.

Wasnt your Ring of Venice destroyed when you went up against Zorro? This ring is an old Ring of Venice... Mu Ningxue placed the ring on Mo Fans hand.

Didnt you win it yourself? You should keep it for yourself, then. Its not like you are in a safer spot than I am, Mo Fan had no intention of accepting it.

Every participant in the finals of the World College Tournament was given a Ring of Venice, but they were not high quality. However, the ring Mu Ningxue had was the real Ring of Venice. The organizer had given it to the most influential participant during the World College Tournament. Mu Ningxue had gone from being disqualified from the national team and leaving her renowned clan to making a comeback and proving herself during the World College Tournament, despite the burden she had to bear with one of her family members being a member of the Black Vatican. The organizer and many others were impressed by her, and decided to give her the special honor.

Mo Fans ring was destroyed by Zorro during the tournament. The organizers were so stingy that they did not even bother replacing it for him!

Put it on, or Ill freeze you right here! Mu Ningxue demanded.

Mo Fan could tell that Mu Ningxue was serious. He quickly put the ring on his finger and told Mu Ningxue not to worry about him.

How could Mu Ningxue not worry? It did not matter what Mo Fan did normally, whether it was going on an adventure in a desert, venturing deep into an old forest, or fighting against demon creatures; Mu Ningxue believed Mo Fan knew what he was doing, and was able to look after himself.

But this time, he was up against the Black Vatican, and he was trying to track down a Red Cardinal. Those people were devils wearing human skins as a disguise, ten times scarier than the demon creatures. How could she not worry?

Xuexue... Mo Fan grabbed Mu Ningxues hands after seeing the firm look in her eyes. He wanted to say something to her, yet he ended up shaking his head when he recalled the ridiculous thing he just mentioned. Forget it, I shouldnt be saying it. What if something bad happens. just like how it always does in the TV dramas?

Just say it; are you still so superstitious at your current age? Mu Ningxue scoffed at him.

Oh alright... Mo Fan nodded. He decided to say it in the end, After Im back, lets settle down. You can invite your relatives and friends, Ill ask my friends to come too. Its fine if you want to make it luxurious and magical, Im kind of rich now, or if you only want it to be simple and quiet with just the two of us, thats fine by me too.

Mu Ningxue was touched by the words, even though she had prepared herself for them.

It was the same as when she walked out after arguing with her family. Mo Fan was waiting for her on the mountain behind her house. He asked where she was going, and she said anywhere, as long as they were together.

She had completely changed over the years. She was struggling to remember the words she said, the things she had done, and the promises she had made, but the man before her was still the same.

But... maybe Im no longer the Mu Ningxue you love, Mu Ningxue said at a loss. Even she had no idea why she would say something like that.

I like your body, not your person, Mo Fan whispered subconsciously.

What did you say!?

Oh, what I meant was, dont overthink it. You are you, weve known one another for so long. Look at how compatible we are. Weve never fought, weve always been a lovely couple... Mo Fan quickly corrected himself.

Mu Ningxue fell into deep thought.

Even though they had now grown up, Mo Fan never failed to amuse her and help her get over the tough times. She had always been glad to have him around.

What do you say? Mo Fan asked nervously.

No deal, Mu Ningxue rejected after a slight hesitation.

Why? Mo Fan was stunned. He thought his attempt was going to be successful, since he was like a soldier going to war!

Mu Ningxue did not answer him. She told Mo Fan to pay Yu Shishi a visit. She seemed to have something related to the Totem Beasts to show to Mo Fan.

Mo Fan pressed further for the reason, but Mu Ningxue insisted on not telling him. Mo Fan had no choice but to leave with regret.

After Mo Fan left, Mu Ningxue shook her head self-mockingly and said, I am the one that is being superstitious...

Amid his great confusion, Mo Fan went to Lunar Fang Mountain to look for Yu Shishi, who was taking care of her cute little moths.

Yu Shishi had reproduced a lot of moths in no time. The little creatures seemed to have an outstanding reproductive ability. Their numbers had recovered quickly, despite losing so many recently...

Hey, are you listening!? Yu Shishi glared at Mo Fan.

What were you saying? Mo Fan replied.

Nothing... why do you look so lost? Yu Shishi asked.

Oh, you are considered a woman too, can I ask you something... chill, relax, take your fangs away, I dont want you to be poisoned after drinking my filthy blood, Mo Fan quickly blurted out. He continued with an awkward smile, I was going to ask what you women are thinking...

Mo Fan told Yu Shishi what happened between him and Mu Ningxue. He was hoping Yu Shishi could explain Mu Ningxues reaction to him. He felt like it was the right time to say it.

I think she likes you too, she should agree normally... but let me ask you a question first, Yu Shishi said.

What is it? Mo Fan said.

Do you have another woman too? Yu Shishi asked.

Yeah, just one.

Oh, she really likes you, then. Otherwise, you would have been torn into pieces by now... if I was her! Yu Shishi snapped. She had never seen anyone so shameless!

Is it really because of that... I thought she had slowly accepted it, Mo Fan murmured.

Are you a retard!?

Every human needs some kind of ambitions. My ambition is to have two wives!

You can go die now, youre beyond redemption!

Arent you looking for me? I must tell you, I will only have two wives. Even though your body is hot and your chest is huge, I believe our relationship should stop at physical interactions between us. I shouldnt go too far... hey hey, I was just joking, why are you showing your fangs again? Cant you just be a proper human? Stop showing your beastly side, its weird, Mo Fan chided her shamelessly.

Yu Shishi felt her lungs were about to explode. Mu Ningxue was such an honorable person. Even Yu Shishi was very impressed by her; why would she fall for a retard like Mo Fan?!

The Moon Moth Phoenix is entering her reincarnation cycle soon. Her current power will dissipate. I heard Liu Ru mention that you are in need of the power of the Totem Beasts. If you can absorb it, be ready when the whole moon comes out tonight. Otherwise, youre going to miss out on the opportunity, Yu Shishi withheld her urge to curse and him, trying her best to speak calmly.

Tonight?

Yes, tonight! You should be well prepared. I must warn you, the power of the Totem Beasts is very special. Its not something a person can absorb easily. You might end up with serious injuries, Yu Shishi warned him.

Mo Fan was overjoyed. He initially thought he had achieved nothing by saving the Moon Moth Phoenix, but to his surprise, her power would dissipate whenever she entered the reincarnation cycle...

Instead of giving her power back to nature, it was better to give it to Little Loach. The little creature had been starving for a long time!

Mo Fans cultivation would improve significantly once he fed Little Loach. He could not ask for better timing, as he was about to have a showdown with the Black Vatican!
