I Want to Be a Son-in-Law!!!

Mo Fan carried Tang Yue into the hotel with difficulty, but it didn't end there—he directly released Ghost Shadow, using the properties of magical light to disrupt every pinhole camera in the room.

He didn't want to wake up and find himself plastered on the front page of some Eastern Empire domestic site.

What followed—those embarrassing cat-like cries of spring—were not fit for outsiders' ears.

After a night of fierce battle, Tang Yue finally learned what Mo Fan was good at. Youth really had boundless energy. Tang Yue's medicine wore off around two in the morning, but she didn't get to rest until four.

"You little bastard." Tang Yue's face still bore two tear streaks, her hair tangled and stuck to her cheeks, her eyes practically shooting fire as she gritted her teeth at Mo Fan.

Mo Fan lay behind Tang Yue, looking innocent as he said, "Teacher Tang Yue, this really isn't my fault. Don't you know how tempting you are to an innocent young boy?"

"Ahhh~~~"

Tang Yue let out a deep sigh, as if resigning herself to fate.

But her next words jolted Mo Fan wide awake.

"Since it's already happened, don't blame me for being heartless. Every Judge gets two chances at mistaken kills in their lifetime," Tang Yue said darkly.

"No way, officer, you're serious?!"

Mo Fan sensed Tang Yue was about to go dark, so he immediately wrapped his arms around her waist from behind, thrusting his Bright Silver Dragon Spear into the White Gate Tower, forcing Tang Yue to surrender!

"Mo Fan, you—bastard!!!"

Tang Yue's cheeks flushed crimson as she gritted out those words.

"Sorry, Teacher Tang Yue, I had no choice but to defend myself. If you insist on killing me!" Mo Fan said, shaking his head.

"Actually, Teacher, I could be a live-in son-in-law!!"

With that, he slapped her round bottom hard.

Tang Yue's whole body ached. If they kept fighting, she might just drop dead on the spot, and Mo Fan showed no signs of fatigue—was this guy an animal?

Wasn't it supposed to be the ox that gets tired, not the field that gets plowed? Why was it the other way around now??

"Stop!!"

Tang Yue turned into a shadow, drifting to the bedside, grabbing the sheet to wrap around herself, glaring at Mo Fan.

She'd only wanted to find a hired hand to finish the mission, never expecting to throw herself into the mix. If word got out, she'd be laughed to death—no, it couldn't get out.

Tang Yue's mind raced in a flash, then her beautiful eyes flickered as she said, "What are you waiting for? Get dressed!"

"Oh, right."

Mo Fan didn't push his luck. He knew if he kept acting up, he'd really face Teacher Tang Yue's wrath.

Mo Fan dressed quickly, while Tang Yue's clothes had already been torn apart by her own hands. A set of clothes appeared in her hand out of thin air.

A Space Magic Artifact!!

That was a pretty expensive magic artifact too. The fact that Tang Yue could own one at the Intermediate level showed her family background was no joke.

The Songcheng Tang Family—though not as famous as the Dongfang Family—was definitely one of the oldest families in Songcheng.

Not to mention, most of the Spirit Hidden Tribunal were Tang family members.

In no time, Tang Yue changed clothes. When she came out of the bathroom, the flush on her face hadn't faded, and her eyes were full of sternness.

But when she came out, Mo Fan was already gone. A piece of paper lay by the bed.

"Teacher Tang Yue, since you're not feeling well, I'll take off first. I'm taking Mei Yan too, as payment. Take care of yourself, don't miss me!!!"

At the end of the note, Mo Fan had drawn a cute pig head!

"Miss your damn leg!!!"

After reading the note, Tang Yue tore it to shreds, wishing the paper in her hands was Mo Fan himself.

And Mei Yan—that bastard even took Mei Yan.

So infuriated—lost her body and her Spirit Seed too!

Damn Mo Fan, don't let me catch you, or else—hmmph hmmph hmmph!!!

Downstairs from the hotel, Mo Fan, who had escaped using Shadow Evasion, hailed a cab straight for the station. He was heading back to Modu. He'd really pissed off Teacher Tang Yue this time.

Speaking of which, would Teacher Tang Yue come to Modu to hunt him down?

Speak of the devil. As soon as Mo Fan got back to Modu, he received a text from Teacher Tang Yue.

"You'd better forget what happened last night, or else I'll show you what a Judge's mistaken kill right means!!"

Mo Fan ignored Tang Yue's threat, thinking to himself, what a woman who says one thing and means another. Last night, you weren't acting like this.

Back at the Settlement Housing, Mo Fan lay down on the bed. He'd find time to sell off Mei Yan, hopefully for thirty million.

Then, he opened the Celestial Spirit Codex—Warrior Zone.

Now that his strength had reached the Intermediate level, the Red-clothed Wraith's help was actually a bit of a letdown, because both Intermediate Magic and Spirit Seeds could harm its spirit body.

To upgrade [Bloodthirsty Soul Extraction], he needed to ignite the Red-clothed Wraith's Superior Soul Shadow and extinguish the Red-clothed Wraith's Soul Shadow.

The Red-clothed Wraith had quite a few Superior Soul Shadows, mainly in the Vicious Ghost Class, but Mo Fan had his eyes set on the Great Ominous Ghost, which only had two Dark Stars.

The highest potential Soul Shadow in the Vicious Ghost Class was four Dark Stars, so why was Mo Fan fixated on the Great Ominous Ghost?

Because the Great Ominous Ghost was sustainable, its Superior Soul Shadow reached the Emperor Level—strange, truly strange.

The highest soul shadow for the Vicious Ghost Class was the Monarch Level, yet this Great Ominous Ghost had a Superior Soul Shadow all the way to the Emperor Level.

Within the Great Ominous Ghost's soul shadow were two Dark Stars. Besides [Bloodthirsty Soul Extraction], the other ability was [Teleport].

Among the General Level abilities, this was one of the most cost-effective.

Mo Fan didn't hesitate. He guided two General Spirit Essences into the Great Ominous Ghost's soul shadow. The soul shadow activated, the Red-clothed Wraith automatically extinguished, and the Servant Spirit Essences retreated back into the Little Loach space.

The Great Ominous Ghost's soul shadow activated!!!

A taller red soul shadow replaced the original Red-clothed Wraith. So that's your "great," you Great Ominous Ghost—so this was the "great" you meant!!

Celestial Spirit Codex, oh Celestial Spirit Codex, I can't look you in the eye anymore. I never thought you'd play with puns too!

The [Bloodthirsty Soul Extraction] ability was enhanced. The Blood Red Robe's spirit form effect was more complete, now immune to Intermediate Magic and Spirit Seed elemental attacks.

The [Teleport] ability was simple: free movement within a hundred-meter radius!

Too strong. Mo Fan finally experienced the joy of Top-Up. He urgently wanted to meet Old Zhao, help Old Zhao take down his big brother, let him take over Zhao's Chamber of Commerce, and then have him gather Monarch Spirit Essences.

Although this year was still blank for him, he definitely wouldn't bury his head in hard training like his past life. He thought about where the opportunities were, to grab them first, then head to the Ancient Capital.

Fights happened every night in the Ancient Capital. Spirit Essences might be collected by hunters, but Lingering Soul Remnants were left alone, only to dissipate on their own.

Mo Fan just needed to take a stroll along the City Wall Base at night to harvest a huge wave of Lingering Soul Remnants!

Not to reach the Advanced Level within this year, but he would definitely be stronger than in his past life. Only then could he better face the coming crisis.

After that little "bullying" of Teacher Tang Yue last night, he wondered if she would still issue a protection mission for him from the Azure Sky Hunter Agency.

She probably would, after all, a day as husband and wife brings a hundred days of grace. But he couldn't say that to Teacher Tang Yue, or else the Black Flood Pavilion wouldn't even have arrived before Teacher Tang Yue came to kill him first!
