A month went by in the blink of an eye after the Black Vatican’s branch was wiped out. A huge sum of money was transferred into Mo Fan’s account. His phone almost exploded from receiving so many calls from the managers and vice-managers of different banks!
Mo Fan’s initial plan was to use the money to buy a Galaxy Vein for improving his Shadow Element to the Advanced Level, and the remaining thirty million on resources for the Space Element.
Mo Fan stuck to the plan and proceeded to cultivate inside the Three Step Tower. To Mo Fan, the place was now just like his backyard. Dean Xiao would simply grant him access whenever he wanted to visit it, since Mo Fan was easily stronger than most candidates on the national team. It was only a matter of time until he fought his way back!
Unfortunately, Mo Fan failed in his attempt to improve the Shadow Element!
Mo Fan thought his Shadow Element was close to being fully saturated, yet when it received the energy provided by the Galaxy Vein, it only managed to leave a crack on the barrier instead of thoroughly breaking it to expand the Nebula. Mo Fan was utterly disappointed.
It felt like he was putting money in jeopardy…
As a matter of fact, it was not necessarily that he had wasted the money. The energy of the Galaxy Vein would not just disappear. Even though Mo Fan felt that the Shadow Element was on the verge of having a breakthrough, it was still a distance away from improving to the Advanced Level. The energy of the Galaxy Vein was actually closing the distance!
Mo Fan was still too naive. If it was that easy to have a breakthrough, there would be a lot more Advanced Magicians in society. It would not be the gap that separated tens of thousands of Magicians.

Despite being bothered by the bad news, Liu Ru soon brought Mo Fan a piece of good news.
The Enforcement Union had arrested the owner of the manor and ranches on Chongming Island. Ownership of the luxurious place was suddenly granted to the second-biggest shareholder.
However, there were problems with the second-biggest shareholder’s identity, too. The person was actually a member of the Blood Tribe! He was almost arrested by the Enforcement Union, despite not being involved with the Black Vatican.

Liu Ru told Mo Fan that if he could help the person by not stopping the Enforcement Union arrest him, he was willing to give Mo Fan the majority of his shares as a token of appreciation.
Mo Fan was overwhelmingly flattered by the news…
However, he had his own principles when it came to receiving money. He had to make sure that the Blood Tribe was not related to the Black Vatican at all. He asked Leng Qing to investigate the person.
“The Blood Tribe’s name is Pinoc. As a matter of fact, he actually contributed to us by gathering the information that implied that Salan had escaped through the manor. He isn’t related to the Black Vatican, but he did have some criminal records. It’s fine if you want to arrest him. Otherwise, your little maidservant will have to keep an eye on him,” reminded Leng Qing.
The Enforcement Union would not be able to wipe out all the evil influences hiding in a big city. Most of the Blood Tribe’s deeds did not endanger human lives, and they were simply living in the dark and minding their own business. As Old Bao had mentioned, instead of putting in effort to wipe them out, and making room for another bunch of lawless existences to disturb the peace of the city, it was better to let them be, and maintain order in the dark.
Leng Qing was mainly responsible for the dark side of the Magic City. If Mo Fan’s maidservant Liu Ru was able to keep the Blood Tribe under control, she would not mind turning a blind eye.
“Liu Ru is pretty strong among the Blood Tribe. She can easily keep an eye on Pinoc,” mused Mo Fan.
Liu Ru would not lie to him. If she said that Pinoc was sincerely trying to be a good person and leave his evil past behind to focus on making money, there would not be any problem. The Blood Tribe could also form blood pacts with one another, and those that broke them would be punished severely.
After Pinoc was released from custody, he claimed possession of the huge property. He learned from Liu Ru that Mo Fan had failed his attempt at breaking through, and he gifted Mo Fan a Galaxy Vein without hesitation to express his gratitude.
Mo Fan almost lost his mind when he saw a high-quality Galaxy Vein presented to him!
“Every now and then, the little ones in the Blood Tribe will offer me money, too. I don’t really need it, so I will just transfer it to your account.” Liu Ru smiled when she saw the joy on Mo Fan’s face.
To her, being able to help Mo Fan in any way was the best thing ever!
