“Prison Mountain is under the Enforcement Union’s jurisdiction. I bet someone in the Enforcement Union gave him green lights to set up his ‘enterprise’ there,” Mo Fan informed Feng Li.

“I do pick up something fishy about it recently, but I didn’t expect it to be this bad. It’s my mistake,” Feng Li sighed.

“Lu Kun should have other projects, too. I hope you can take care of the rest,” Mo Fan went on.

“Don’t worry, I know what to do. I just need your little huntress’ help,” Feng Li nodded.

Feng Li had collected some evidence, but it only proved a mole in the Enforcement Union had been providing Prison Mountain with special convenience and privileges.

There was only some bribery involved, so Feng Li had no clue what the truth was. He had only learned things were so serious after Mo Fan uprooted the evil.

Feng Li had to admit that Lu Kun’s disguise as a human was perfect, whether it was his role in the Lu Clan or his performance at his job. As a result, the Hunters and Enforcement Union had not been suspicious of him for all these years.

Lu Kun might still be free if it weren’t for the job letter left behind by Senior Hunter Leng!

Mo Fan briefly explained the incident to Lu Zhengxin and Lu Qingyao after he returned to the Lu Clan’s mansion.

The two did not react to the news pleasantly, mainly because they had investigated certain places they were always suspicious of while Mo Fan was busy taking out Lu Kun.

They had discovered an underground cellar in Lu Kun’s private mansion and found a man who had died a long time ago.

The man had been badly tortured while he was alive. His face had retained the painful expression frozen on his face when he died.

After doing some comparisons, they realized the man who died in the cellar was their real uncle!

In other words, the Red Demon had not taken over Lu Kun’s flesh. It had held Lu Kun captive and gradually absorbed his memories and behavior over a long time to replace him.

They could imagine the torture their uncle had gone through while a demon was mimicking and learning his behavior just to replace him!

“Either way, thank you for getting rid of the demon for us!” Lu Qingyao was still dealing with some lingering fears.

She was terrified after recalling the whole series of events. The younger generation of the Lu Clan was only safe because the Red Demon had still been relying on its disguise, but once it was strong enough, the whole Lu Clan would definitely have been reduced to ruins!

Mo Fan had seen a few extreme species capable of causing great disasters. The Red Demons were definitely one of them!

Mo Fan was relieved he had been able to take out the Red Demon before it was too late.

“I told you, sister, Lu Yilin was only killed because he tried to set Mo Fan up first, but no one in the whole clan believed me. This time, it was Mo Fan who prevented a huge disaster for us, despite what happened in the past!” Lu Zhengxin now had absolute trust in Mo Fan.

Prison Mountain was the Lu Clan’s property. If something terrible happened there, they had to bear full responsibility.

Lu Kun was cold-blooded, while the Duke of Syam was savage and cruel. Who knew what terrible things they would do if the secrets of Prison Mountain were exposed?

How would the Lu Clan retain its reputation in society?

“It’s true that I was biased toward you at first. I’m sorry,” Lu Qingyao immediately apologized to Mo Fan.

Mo Fan waved his hand. He was not fussed about the little details.

Mo Fan was only willing to help because the two had been behaving well. They were not the kind who would bite him to death just because of some old conflict he had with their clan. Mo Fan was warier of the unreasonable people who insisted he had murdered Lu Yilin. Mo Fan could not have cared less about the Lu Clan’s well-being if that were the case!

“Feel free to let us know if you need any help. Our grandfather is overseas for the time being, but we still have a say in certain things,” Lu Qingyao told him.

“Then I won’t hold back. Does your clan own Kunshan Marketplace?” Mo Fan asked them directly.

Liu Ru was only the landlord of a part of the marketplace, but the Lu Clan was the rightful owner of the area.

“We don’t own just the Kunshan Marketplace. Every marketplace from Guangzhou to Tianjin along the coastline is managed by the Lu Clan and the government!” Lu Qingyao stated proudly.

“Oh my…” Mo Fan took a deep breath.

How insane were rich people!?

“Well, I’m looking for compatible souls, bones, and lineage for my old Wolf Summoned Beast. I’ve already asked an old vendor in the marketplace to collect them for me, but I’m not too confident about his efficiency and sources,” Mo Fan admitted.

“Why don’t you write down whatever you need. I’ll ask the marketplaces across thirty-six cities to collect them for you at a discounted price. Unfortunately, I don’t have much say financially, so the cost…” Lu Qingyao said.

“Sister, we can definitely afford it. Speaking of which, what level is your Summoned Beast?” Lu Zhengxin interrupted her.

“Ruler-level,” Mo Fan informed him.

Lu Zhengxin’s expression shifted unnaturally as soon as he heard that.

“It’s fine, I’ll pay for the goods myself. You are doing me a huge favor by collecting the materials for me,” Mo Fan smiled reassuringly.

Lu Qingyao glared at her brother.

Did he not realize what level Mo Fan was currently? It was obvious Mo Fan would be needing Ruler-level resources! Was he that stupid to think Mo Fan was only after Servant-class hides or Warrior-level bones?!

“Ruler-level resources are extremely rare. It will take us some time to collect them, even with our sources, but I’ll deliver them to Fanxue Mountain once we have them all. Is that fine for you?” Lu Qingyao asked him.

“Sure, thanks a lot!” Mo Fan nodded.

Mo Fan had promised to help his Old Wolf evolve. He had no intention of going back on his words. Now that he could guarantee a fourth Element at the Super Level, he no longer needed a lot of money in the near future, and could use it to improve the Old Wolf’s strength. After all, his second Contracted Beast was just a little snake lady who only knew to act coquettishly all the time…

Mo Fan wrote down a lot of resources. Wolf species might be common in the woods and mountains, but Ruler-level Wolves were still relatively scarce.

Considering the difficulty of finding suitable Soul Jades for the Old Wolf, Mo Fan headed to the Hunter Union in Shanghai to submit an S-level quest.

There were three important ingredients for a Summoned Beast to evolve: the soul, the bones, and the lineage.

He might be able to obtain the bones and lineage through the Lu Clan’s help and the vendor’s connections. However, the chance of buying a suitable Soul Jade was almost zero.

The S-level quest Mo Fan submitted was “Hunt for a Ruler-level Wolf and obtain its complete Soul Jade.”
