Versatile Mage: I Awakened Nine Stars

Chapter 267 Canaan
The Hangzhou incident ended quietly.

Xu Shen kept his achievements and fame secret.

Tang Yue also became an official member of Ruoshui team without any obstacles.

In the blink of an eye, spring is here.

Tong Zhouzheng and Xu Shen finally finalized the last few spots.

Apart from Nan Jue who couldn't come, Tong Zhouzheng also found two candidates.

In addition, there is still one person short of meeting the requirements to participate.

Xu Shen took the opportunity to ask about Mu Bai who was busy in the ancient capital.

This guy rented out an entire street in the ancient capital to do business, and his business was gradually getting better, but he didn't expect to encounter a catastrophe in the ancient capital.

It was his bad luck that his years of hard work were destroyed in an instant.

As his own angel investor, Xu Shen naturally wanted to help him make a comeback.

At a time when the outer city of the ancient capital was in ruins and in need of reconstruction, money-making projects were everywhere.

With his investment, plus the favors he had accumulated with several big guys during the Ancient Capital incident, it would be extremely easy to help Mu Bai start over.

This guy has been in a state of pain and happiness during this period.

So, at first Xu Shen didn't plan to call him.

However, there were not enough people, so I just asked tentatively.

Unexpectedly, this guy agreed very readily.

As for those businesses.

He can only make his former lackey Zhao Kunsan suffer more.

mid-December.

The Ruoshui team has been expanded.

Captain Xu Shen solemnly submitted his application to participate in the Demon City Hunter League.

Because they are already a Master Hunter team, they do not have to participate in the qualifiers in November this year.

The official hunter competition will start around next spring.

This is good news.

One year is enough time for these energetic young people to undergo a gorgeous transformation.

End of March.

Spring is in full swing.

Accompanied by Xiao Yumian, Xu Shen celebrated his 21st birthday in a low-key manner.

In mid-April, Xu Shen called Tong Zhouzheng.

"Pack your bags, we are going abroad."

"Is it finally coming?"

Tong Zhouzheng's eyes lit up.

This guy has been mysterious for so long, there must be some reason.

"where are we going?"

"Canaan."

"Canaan?!" Tong Zhou was exclaiming, "It's a mess over there, there are wars everywhere, and people are fighting everywhere."

"Nonsense, if it weren't chaotic, there wouldn't be so many good things."

"..."

Tong Zhou was speechless. It was such a reasonable reason that he couldn't refute it at all.

"Okay, hurry up and pack up. I checked my flight and we're leaving this afternoon."

"Wait a moment, I'll notify Xu Dalong and the others."

"There are too many people and the number of people there is limited. The two of us are enough. When we get there, if the team members need anything, we will advance the money to buy it first."

"The dog owners are arrogant!"

……

Canaan originally means a land of freedom and happiness.

It is ironic that this land has now become an arena for competition among various forces.

There has been a high-intensity war there for a hundred years.

Not to mention people, even dogs passing by would be kicked.

Once a reporter interviewed a little boy there about what he wanted to do when he grew up.

The little boy was very calm and said that children in Canaan would never grow up to adulthood.

Canaan, this is Canaan!

A "promised land" filled with war and smoke.

It was already early morning when Xu Shen and Tong Zhou arrived at Canaan.

Following the instructions of the flight attendant, the two came to the VIP lounge.

A woman in a black gauze dress sat quietly.

Her figure is slim and graceful, and her temperament is noble and elegant.

From the perspective of the door, even though one can only see her profile, it is not difficult to imagine that this is definitely a stunning beauty that anyone who accidentally takes a look at will find it difficult to look away.
"This figure looks a little familiar," Tong Zhou was muttering.

"Of course she looks familiar. She is Asharuya." "What the hell? It's her?!"

Tong Zhou was thinking about the trip to the Sossusvlei Desert.

"How did you hook up with her?"

Now, he was completely convinced by Xu Shen.

"What do you mean by hook up? Don't say it in such a harsh way." Xu Shen said, "Our relationship is purely based on interests."

"Ah, yes, yes!"

Tong Zhou was responding perfunctorily.

"If you two come any later, I'll be leaving!"

Asharuya suppressed her anger.

She's grown up so much, who would dare to let her wait from noon to early morning!

Xu Shen spread his hands and said, "We didn't expect to encounter bird monsters on the way. We had to change planes and were delayed."

Asharuya's expression eased a little: "This place is not like Shenzhou, there are all kinds of people. If you two act on your own, you will bear the consequences."

The two of them obediently made an OK gesture.

"What's going on? I feel like you haven't convinced her yet. No, are you trying to convince her? Is this reliable?"

Walking behind him, Tong Zhou was asking questions quietly.

“It should be reliable.”

When I went to the Weiju Village with Asharuya in the ancient capital, I must have gained something.

This trip to Canaan was the reward.

"Give me back my earrings."

Asharuya had no expression on her face.

"No, here you go"

Xu Shen opened his palm, and an exquisite pearl earring sparkled brightly in his palm.

At that time, Asharuya had nothing, and Xu Shen felt that this woman was slippery. He was afraid that she would change her mind after leaving Weiju Village, so he confiscated the pair of earrings that she regarded as a treasure.

If not for this, it would be strange to see her waiting for them at the airport at this time.

Asharuya frowned: "Why is there only one?"

"The other one is still in Shenzhou. Don't worry, it will be returned to you after the transaction is completed."

"The scheming Shenzhou people!"

"Same here, old and slippery-shouldered stranger."

Xu Shen smiled brightly, revealing his white and neat teeth.

……

Asharuya is extremely efficient.

Or maybe she really didn't want to deal with this guy Xu Shen. Although there were still a few days before the end of the trade fair, she led the two of them to a ruin early the next morning.

The three people wandered around in the ruins, walked into the underground space, and found an inconspicuous basement.

Asharuya kicked the door open.

Inside the door was an abandoned hut with mottled walls, a leaky ceiling, and sunlight and dust seeping in from time to time.

"I say, is this reliable?"

Xu Shen began to doubt his life.

This bare-walled, pure prison atmosphere is very consistent with Canaan's current situation.

But is this really an underground trading place where tens of billions of dollars are traded per second as she said?

"There are several teleportation arrays leading to the trade fair. This is just one of them. There are others that are even more inconspicuous than this one."

As she spoke, she took out three sets of black robes, put on one herself, and threw two sets to Xu Shen and others.

"These are custom-made by the exchange to conceal your identity. It's up to you whether you wear them or not."

Xu Shen and Tong Zhou were not stupid old men who came to show off their wealth, so they put them on without any hesitation.

You know what, I don't know what material this thing is made of, but it's soft and smooth.

Unfortunately, mental power can still penetrate the black robe unhindered.

Asharuya's graceful figure appeared so gracefully in Xu Shen's vision.

Is the identity really concealed?

Like a cover.

Asharuya turned around and said unhappily: "What are you doing?!"

Xu Shen smiled awkwardly: "I'll just give it a try."

With his spiritual awareness, it would be easy for him to spy on a high-level magician without anyone noticing.

Unexpectedly, Asharuya saw through it.

It seems that although this black robe cannot block mental power, it does the opposite and amplifies external mental fluctuations to achieve the purpose of reminding the owner.

I don’t know which genius designed this, it’s so cool!

Asharuya was too lazy to argue with Xu Shen. She glared at him and then went back to her own business.

I saw the light of dimensional magic condensing at her fingertips, painting on the wall, and a chaotic vortex slowly appeared.
