Chapter 593: Chapter 562: Elemental Tower, Your Magic God Has Returned

The Elemental Tower’s first-place finish earned it at least ten percent more resources than in previous years.

For a massive organization like the Elemental Tower, even a ten percent increase was an unimaginably large sum.

It was worth at least several hundred million Gold Coins.

He originally hadn’t known any of this.

A short while ago, as Victor was seeing him off from the Space Tower, he had complained that Li Wei had caused the Space Tower to lose resources worth several hundred million.

That was when Li Wei learned that the tournament between the five great Mage Towers also determined the allocation of resources among them.

Hobbes said hurriedly, "So, before anyone finds you, you need to leave the Elemental Tower. Quickly."

Li Wei said, "Running away won’t solve the problem."

"I came back to solve it."

The Elemental Tower’s reason for abandoning Li Wei and handing him over to the Light Divine Sect was simple.

The cost of offending the Light Divine Sect for Li Wei’s sake far outweighed the benefits.

To put it bluntly, protecting Li Wei and thus offending the Light Divine Sect was not worth it in the eyes of most of the Elemental Tower’s upper echelons.

A Tier Four Great Mage like Li Wei held no sway with the Elemental Tower’s leadership.

However, a Legendary Mage Li Wei was not someone the Elemental Tower’s leadership could afford to ignore.

Seeing that he couldn’t dissuade Li Wei, Hobbes watched him walk toward the Elemental Tower and quickly took out his Communication Crystal to contact his uncle, Fang Lide.

Fang Lide was the head of the Hall of Truth’s Sunshine Research Group.

A top scholar at the professor level in the Hall of Truth.

When Li Wei had gotten into trouble, it was Fang Lide who had gone around persuading the Vice Hall Master and the Master of Truth Hall to speak up for him.

"Uncle, Li Wei is back!"

Those few words were enough to make Fang Lide, who was in the middle of an important meeting, disregard everything and storm out.

"Something urgent has come up. This meeting is postponed until tomorrow."

Fang Lide left that statement hanging and turned to leave the conference room.

As he hurried outside, he asked Hobbes what exactly had happened.

How could Li Wei have returned so suddenly?

Hobbes quickly told Fang Lide everything he knew.

When Fang Lide learned that Li Wei was actually going to the Elemental Tower’s leadership to demand an explanation...

He slapped his forehead, feeling that things were about to go south.

Fang Lide stopped in his tracks and turned, heading for the room of the Master of Truth Hall.

’I have to protect Li Wei this time.’

Li Wei walked from the first floor of the Elemental Tower all the way to the seventh without meeting any resistance.

Not until the Elder guarding the Cross-Boundary Teleportation Array on the Seventh Floor recognized him.

The Elder stared at Li Wei with a look of shock and suspicion. "You’re... Mage Li Wei?"

Li Wei looked at the guardian Elder, who seemed somewhat familiar, but whose name he couldn’t recall.

He smiled and said, "Yes, I am Li Wei. I’ve returned this time specifically to pay a visit to the councillors of the Elemental Tower."

After his initial surprise, the Elder said, "You’ve been expelled from the Elemental Tower. You shouldn’t be here."

As he spoke, he prepared to immobilize Li Wei.

Suddenly, the Elder found he couldn’t move. He was completely unable to cast any Magic.

The surrounding Magic Elements had all gone silent.

"A Domain!?"

The Elder stared at Li Wei in shock.

While Domains were rare, the Elemental Tower was not without Grand Mages who possessed them.

But a Domain that could suppress him to the point of complete paralysis... he had never seen one.

One must understand, he was a Tier Six High Level Grand Mage.

The Elder looked at Li Wei and was suddenly struck by the unfathomable depth of his power.

"How is this possible?"

Li Wei’s actions triggered the Guardian Array on the Elemental Tower’s Seventh Floor.

Soon, several Elders from the Elemental Tower arrived on the Seventh Floor as reinforcements.

"What’s going on?"

The moment they stepped onto the Seventh Floor, they found they had lost control of the Magic Elements in the surrounding world.

The Magic Elements within their bodies were also suppressed, rendered immobile.

They were completely unable to perform any Casting.

They stared in astonishment at the figure standing in the hall of the Seventh Floor.

"Who are you?"

Li Wei glanced at them, not bothering to explain, and released the aura of a Legendary Mage.

VMM!

In an instant, everyone felt the oppressive pressure of immense Mana.

Their hearts pounded in their chests.

"A Legendary Mage!"

Everyone stared at Li Wei in shock.

They didn’t understand why a Legendary Mage would suddenly appear and cause trouble inside the Elemental Tower.

Soon, the aura of a Legendary Mage alerted the upper echelons of the Elemental Tower.

The councillors of the Elemental Tower’s high council were all Legendary Mages.

Two councillors appeared on the Seventh Floor.

"Who are you? Even a Legendary Mage is not permitted to act so wantonly within the Elemental Tower!"

Many in the Elemental Tower’s leadership knew of Li Wei.

However, only a few of them had ever met Li Wei in person.

For Legendary Level Mages who stood at the apex of the Elemental Tower...

...holding a meeting over a mere Tier Four Great Mage was already incredible enough.

Let alone personally looking into the man.

Li Wei glanced at the two and found that their Mana was actually weaker than his own.

They were quite old.

Yet they were only Initial Tier Legendary Mages.

Their chances of advancing beyond the Legendary Level in the future were practically nonexistent.

He said, "I am Li Wei. Have the people who actually run the Elemental Tower come out."

"Li Wei?"

Upon hearing the name, the two Legendary Mages were momentarily baffled. They had never heard of a powerful Legendary Mage named Li Wei.

One of them reacted first, looking at Li Wei with some confusion. "Could you be that Li Wei who was expelled from the Elemental Tower?"

Even as he said it, he couldn’t quite believe it himself.

But he only remembered one person by that name.

The Elder suppressed by Li Wei hurriedly shouted, "That’s him! That’s him!"

The Legendary Mage stared at Li Wei in disbelief.

"How is that possible? Wasn’t he a Tier Four Mage? How could he have become a Legendary Mage?"

"Li Wei? Why have you returned?"

A person appeared on the Seventh Floor.

Seeing him, the previous two Legendary Mages hurriedly called out, "Lord Wind Chaser."

Wind Chaser, one of the highest seats on the Elemental Tower’s council.

The Elemental Tower’s strongest Wind Mage.

A top-tier Legendary Mage.

Li Wei looked at Wind Chaser and sensed his power.

Wind Chaser looked at Li Wei, a surprised expression on his face. "How did you become a Legendary Mage?"

Li Wei chuckled and said, "Is that so surprising?"

"My becoming a Legendary Mage should have been within your expectations."

Wind Chaser’s eyes narrowed slightly.

The Elemental Tower’s leadership had indeed been very optimistic about Li Wei’s chances of becoming a Legendary Mage.

He had shown immense potential.

But unfortunately, Li Wei had provoked a power he shouldn’t have.

There were plenty of people in the Elemental Tower with the potential to become Legendary Mages.

Nearly everyone in the Purple Level Class had that kind of potential.

That was why the Elemental Tower’s leadership hadn’t placed too much importance on Li Wei’s potential.

Potential was just potential, after all.

There was no telling how many years of Cultivation it would take for Li Wei to become a Legendary Mage.

He might even meet an untimely end due to some accident along the way.

Wind Chaser, too, was utterly shocked, finding it hard to believe.

That Li Wei had actually become a Legendary Mage so quickly.

His growth rate was too absurd.

Wind Chaser was reminded of someone from long ago, another person in the Elemental Tower whose power had also grown at an incredible speed.

Far surpassing ordinary people, it was utterly abnormal.

Later, an investigation revealed that the person had been possessed by a High Tier Mage.

That person wasn’t a Mage from the Elemental Tower, but an exchange student sent from the Illusion Spirit Tower.

After the Elemental Tower discovered his identity, they sent him back to the Illusion Spirit Tower.

Afterward, that person left the Illusion Spirit Tower and disappeared without a trace.

The Illusion Spirit Tower might have known where he went.

The Elemental Tower hadn’t followed the matter, so they weren’t clear on the subsequent developments.

Zhu Feng stared at Li Wei, trying to sense if there was anything unusual about his aura.

’Has he been possessed?’

Wind Chaser stared intently at Li Wei and said, "Who are you? Why have you possessed Li Wei’s body to cause trouble at the Elemental Tower?"

Hearing this, Li Wei let out a laugh.

"Haha, you’re overthinking things. I am me. There’s no possession."

But back to the matter at hand.

Li Wei hadn’t returned just to cause trouble.

He stated his demand. "I want to become a councillor of the Elemental Tower."

Upon hearing this, everyone stared at Li Wei in astonishment, thinking: ’This person is insane.’

A councillorship in the Elemental Tower wasn’t something he could just get because he wanted it.

Even if he was a Legendary Mage, he couldn’t just have one for the asking.

Wind Chaser was about to refuse when the voice of the Elemental Tower’s Vice Tower Master sounded in his ear.

A moment later, Wind Chaser looked at Li Wei and said, "For now, regardless of whether you are the real Li Wei, since you wish to join the Elemental Tower, we are willing to give you a chance."
