A short while later after wandering around the campus for a bit, Fang Yu noticed that Ding Yumian dressed rather simply, so he decided to take her on a huge shopping spree.
After all, autumn had arrived. How could such a poetic and picturesque season pass without dressing beautifully? Besides, being able to watch her try on all kinds of pretty outfits and display different kinds of gentle elegance and quiet grace was also an immense enjoyment for Fang Yu.
When they reached the school gates and Fang Yu was about to lead Ding Yumian outside.
Ding Yumian hesitated slightly and said, "We're going out…?"
"Yeah, I'm taking you out for a walk," Fang Yu replied.
"But…" Ding Yumian hesitated.
"It's fine. I'm here!" Fang Yu said seriously.
Then, shameless as ever, he grabbed Ding Yumian's small hand, not giving her the chance to keep refusing.
Ding Yumian originally wanted to pull her soft little hand back, only to realize she could not break free at all. She raised her head to look at Fang Yu, her lips puckering into a tiny cat-like triangle shape. It was so adorable that Fang Yu truly felt he had witnessed the ultimate embodiment of the word "cute"!
Such an adorable girl, making her cry from bullying her would definitely be exciting.
"Let go first. I'll go out with you, alright?" Ding Yumian protested.
"Okay."
Fang Yu did not push things too far. After letting go, he asked, "Is there anywhere you want to go?"
"Anywhere is fine," Ding Yumian replied.
"Then I'll arrange everything."
The weather that afternoon was wonderful. There was neither blazing sunlight nor gloomy clouds. Every so often, a comfortable autumn breeze would brush against their faces. For girls, this kind of weather was perfect for shopping.
Fang Yu bought Ding Yumian a warm drink. She held it gently in her hands, occasionally taking small sips.
Her eyes wandered across the surrounding streetscape, gazing at the exquisite display windows and also at the things she liked.
As a Calamity of the Mind Element, she was destined to rarely have opportunities like this to stroll through bustling city streets.
Inside the shopping mall, Fang Yu picked out an outfit for Ding Yumian.
In truth, Fang Yu did not really have much fashion sense. He had simply spotted a retro-style women's outfit at first glance and thought that Ding Yumian already possessed the delicate beauty and tranquil aura of a classical woman. She would definitely look even more stunning wearing it. As for the price, he did not even bother considering it.
It was a long-sleeved outfit with ribbon ties and a waist-cinching design, perfect for autumn. It was not the kind of ancient clothing that looked like someone had traveled through time. Instead, it blended modern fashion elements into a retro style. After Ding Yumian put it on, it did not appear out of place at all. It looked natural, fresh, fashionable, graceful, and filled with classical charm.
Afterward, Fang Yu pushed her toward the fitting room.
"I can do it myself," Ding Yumian said as she shut Fang Yu outside and immediately drew the curtain closed.
"It's okay. I don't mind," Fang Yu shamelessly replied with a grin.
Unfortunately, Ding Yumian firmly refused. No matter how persistently Fang Yu spoke nonsense, she absolutely refused to let him help her change clothes!!
What a pity!
Not long after, Looking at the somewhat refreshed and transformed Ding Yumian, Fang Yu happily went to pay the bill.
Afterward, he spent half the day wandering around with Ding Yumian in her new outfit, enduring countless envious gazes along the way as they ate, drank, and enjoyed themselves in various places. When evening arrived, Fang Yu promptly escorted Ding Yumian back.
Meanwhile, while Fang Yu and Ding Yumian were out shopping.
News spread that Mo Fan's generation had won the exchange competition against the Imperial Capital Academy.
However, Mo Fan's Innate Dual Element Talent was also exposed as a result.
His information instantly spread across academies all over the country.
Students from the major universities began listing geniuses from different regions who possessed Innate Talents and even created a talent ranking list.
Mo Fan's Innate Dual Element Talent was ranked sixth, while Mu Ningxue's Innate Spirit Seed ranked tenth.
That night after Fang Yu returned to his residence and saw the information online, he sighed emotionally.
Mo Fan's talent had been completely exposed.
The little white mouse was about to be dragged off for experimentation.
The Demon Element would soon be born.
However, only Mo Fan's unique constitution could withstand that transcendent power. Nobody else could imitate it.
This was also another one of his cheat-like advantages besides the Holy Totem Azure Dragon Pendant.
When the Demon Element truly awakened, even as a newly advanced High-Tier Mage, he would be able to use it to battle one of the Eight Undead Lords.
Furthermore, in the future, after ascending to Emperor level through the power of the Demon Element, he would even inherit the power of one of the Four Emperors of the Dark Plane, the Evil Saint King.
And Fang Yu remembered that in the original timeline, he had also inherited the power left behind by the Ancient King. One of the Four Emperors, the Underworld King, was likewise deeply connected to him.
All that could be said was, as expected of the protagonist!
The next day.
While Fang Yu was cultivating at his residence, Hunter Assistant Zhu Rui called him over to the Hunter's Union.
"There's a military mission. Think about whether you want to take it," Zhu Rui said as she pushed the tablet toward Fang Yu.
"Search for and apprehend a High-Tier Mage. Due to an experimental accident, he lost his consciousness. The last place he disappeared was in the western region. Reward: one hundred million to two hundred million."
"I'll take it. I'll leave immediately."
Fang Yu made his decision very quickly. Coincidentally, he also needed to make a trip to Jinlin City.
Fang Yu knew that the mission target was a failed product of the Demon Element experiment.
However, since the task was only to search for the target, the problem should not be too serious. If the target was not too strong, then he could proceed with the capture.
"Alright, go ahead. I've accepted it for you," Zhu Rui said while swiping her fingers across the screen twice.
"Okay, I'm heading out."
After speaking, Fang Yu immediately left.
He boarded a plane and headed toward the northern region of Xiling. That was the exact location listed in the mission details.
The night sky sparkled brilliantly while the earth stretched endlessly beneath it.
"A High-Tier Mage with three mutated Elements, the monster he transformed into is actually this terrifying," Hunter King Du Xiao muttered to himself.
On the battlefield, a monster with glowing red eyes smashed downward toward a Skyhorn Behemoth.
"BOOM!!!!"
The aftermath exploded outward. A massive shockwave spread in every direction, with the epicenter being the battlefield between Hunter King Du Xiao's Skyhorn Behemoth and that monster.
Far away near the railway tracks.
A High-Tier Water Element spell, Heaven's Water Curtain, stood there. When the shockwave surged over, violent ripples appeared across the watery barrier, as though it might collapse directly.
"So fierce? This place is at least two kilometers away. What kind of monster did the military create?" Demon Man said with lingering fear as he looked at the water barrier that had nearly been shattered.
"Whoosh whoosh!!!"
Just as the water curtain was about to collapse, snow and frost suddenly drifted through the air. Frost rapidly spread across the battlefield, and right before the shaking water barrier, an incomparably thick wall of ice abruptly condensed into existence.
At that moment, Fang Yu descended from the sky with two magnificent ice wings spread across his back.
"You are?" Demon Man looked at the young man before him in surprise.
"I came after accepting the bounty. Your injuries, you alright?" Fang Yu asked while looking at the blood at the corner of Demon Man's mouth.
"I'm fine. I can still hold on. If I hadn't been ambushed suddenly, it wouldn't have turned out like this," Demon Man replied with a grin.
This guy was truly ruthless. Even with injuries this severe, he acted like nothing had happened.
"Then I'll leave this place to you. I'm going to check the situation over there."
Seeing that Fang Yu intended to enter the battlefield, Demon Man hurriedly stopped him.
"With my strength, dealing with a few High-Tier Mages wouldn't be a problem, but that monster…"
"I don't have a habit of seeking death. If the situation goes bad, I'll retreat," Fang Yu replied.
After speaking, his ice wings spread wide as he shot into the sky, leaving countless ice crystals fluttering across the battlefield.
"Are young people nowadays all this monstrous? High-level control…" Demon Man was dumbfounded.
