Zhao Pinlin was hesitant when he saw Wang Xuxu expressing her concern, but Zhenming Town was the best place for him to make his move!
“How about this? I’ll let the manager hire a Hunter to protect us until the end of the trip. How does that sound?” said Zhao Pinlin.
“Won’t…won’t it cost you a fortune?”
“Don’t worry, the hotel has Magicians, too,” said Zhao Pinlin.
“Hiring a Hunter to be our bodyguard. Zhao Pinlin, your family is pretty wealthy!” said Wang Xuxu.
“Magicians aren’t too big of a deal. They are willing to work for money, too. Just treat them as higher-level bodyguards,” Zhao Pinlin was flattered after he was complimented by Wang Xuxu.
“You’re right.”
Both Mo Fan and Mu Ningxue were not too pleased by Zhao Pinlin’s words. However, Zhao Pinlin was stating the truth, too. Even though Magicians had a little more status in this world, nothing was as respectable as money. Some financial groups that were not involved in the magic industry did not have a single Magician in their family. However, the Magicians under their command were enough to form a small army, including Advanced Magicians, or even Super Magicians!
Magicians were heavily reliant on money. The money they earned was never enough to fulfill their needs, unless they were satisfied to stay at the same level for the rest of their lives. It was the same for Hunters. They were constantly dealing with demon creatures. At the brink of life and death, when a demon creature’s claws were right in their face, no Magician would mind spending hundreds of thousands, or even millions, on good defensive equipment!
The group had an enjoyable time at the campfire. Most people simply assumed the stories were all fake. They stayed at the campfire until midnight before going back to the hotel.
Zhao Pinlin was looking for opportunities to talk with Mu Ningxue. However, Mu Ningxue did not tell a story. She directly went up the hill alone and returned fairly quickly. It was not anything scary to her.

An alleyway in Shanghai’s Jing’an District, the attic of Clearsky Hunter Agency…
The attic was not huge. The window had been tightly shut for more than half a year. Not even the slightest sunlight could pass through it. The attic was always dark and cold.

The room was in total darkness. However, a pair of eyes suddenly lit up. They looked rather spooky.
The bones and joints began to crack. The owner of the eyes stepped on the wooden floor and started walking around.

The floor was very old. An old man inspecting an orb in the room below the attic took his reading glasses off and looked at the ceiling.
“Little girl is awake!” exclaimed Old Bao.
As soon as he finished the sentence, a slender figure moved rapidly up the floor like a gust of blue wind. She arrived in front of Old Bao within an instant.
Leng Qing stared at the ceiling alertly and snapped furiously at Old Bao, “There’s a strong evil presence in the attic. Are you really in your dotage? Can’t you sense the presence of the thing living in the attic!?”
“Calm down, just calm down, she’s the little servant-girl of a big demon. Tsk tsk, if even you are spooked by the servant-girl’s presence, it seems like she has actually evolved. Well, it’s expected since she has been asleep for half a year,” Old Bao smiled.
Leng Qing frowned.
“Don’t worry, she isn’t hostile to us,” added Old Bao.
“Humph, she better make sure she doesn’t get spotted by the Enforcement Union. They won’t care if she’s a good vampire or a bad vampire!” said Leng Qing.
“Don’t be like that, she is in charge of this area. The number of cases committed by Darkness Creatures related to the Blood Tribe in this area has been significantly reduced thanks to her. Don’t be so stubborn, you should help cover up her identity. Speaking of which, you should get her a valid identity. Where there is light, there is darkness. Instead of trying to get rid of all the darkness, which would lead to more troubles. We should let the dark exist in order, too,” said Old Bao cheerfully.
“So that’s what the previous person in charge of the Holy Judgment Court thinks? How about the Black Vatican!?” asked Leng Qing.
“Oh, those bastards? You can’t possibly treat them as humans!” snapped Old Bao.
