In the huge garden of Hogwarts, a tent was set up, and a small sign was placed at the door.

Zhang Xiao walked over, and it read: "Special moment of emergency, Ministry of Magic, temporary residence of the International Federation of Wizards."

From time to time, employees of the Ministry of Magic came in and out of the tent with big dark circles under their eyes. They walked in a hurry and carried various documents.

Some just turned around and apparated away as soon as they went out.

The explosions of "bang bang bang" were heard in succession.

Zhang Xiao nodded, but he did not expect that the efficiency of the Ministry of Magic would be much faster now.

The space inside the tent is very large, similar to a circular hall, with a huge chandelier hanging from the ceiling.

Next to the circular corridor are rooms, which look a bit like Hakka earth buildings.

The entrance is relatively spacious, and there are no staff from the Ministry of Magic who were responsible for testing wands before.

There was only a small table, and a tired employee sat there. His head was moving slowly and his eyelids were closed together.

There is also a sign leaning against the table: "Visitor's Office - Please register here if you need guidance."

Zhang Xiao walked over and saw that the stubble-faced uncle was still asleep. He shook his head and did not wake him up. Instead, he directly clicked on the schematic diagram on his desk and made a copy.

Unexpectedly, the Minister of Magic's office is very close, just down the stairs.

People were coming and going around, all frowning and walking in a hurry. Some people raised their heads and saw Zhang Xiao, but they didn't seem to react. After walking for a while, they looked back in shock at the retreating figure.

Before they even reached the office, the sound of heated arguments and discussions could already be heard coming from the half-covered wooden door.

"No, I object!"

"But this is the best way!"

"Okay - be quiet, this is a serious discussion!"

As he pushed the door open, the sound suddenly stopped, and everyone in the room turned their heads to look at the door.

A man with a big beard already frowned:

"Child, this is the minister's office. We are discussing important things. If you have any questions, you can-"

The person next to him pulled him, and the bearded man closed his mouth for no apparent reason.

Minister Susan Bones, who was sitting at the very back, had already stood up, her thin face was full of exhaustion, and she forced a smile.

"Zhang, it's nice to see you again."

The bearded man was stunned. He tried his best to shrink back, using other people to cover his expression, and asked his companions in a low voice.

"Is this Zhang? He looks like he's not yet an adult!"

"Stop talking! I asked you to watch the replay of the magic projection and you didn't watch it!"

Zhang Xiao pretended not to hear and nodded towards Susan Bones:

"Professor Sprout said you wanted to see me."

"Oh - yes, yes, it's a very important thing -" Susan Bones clapped her hands: "Okay, gentlemen and ladies, our meeting will be suspended for a moment.

Well - you know the reason: there are some things we can't actually decide, or it's useless if we decide, right? "

Some people's faces darkened, some smiled wryly and nodded in agreement, and more people were just tired. They pinched their brows, stood up and left in silence.

Calm gradually returned to the minister's office.

Susan Bones waved her hand, and the office door immediately closed firmly.

She smiled self-deprecatingly: "Look, this catastrophe is not without any benefits, is it? At least the wizards reported that their spells were much more powerful.

He even confidently stated that he could single out several former Aurors.

It's a pity that the Aurors have also become stronger——"

Zhang Xiao smiled. Things happened too fast and too densely. The Taoist sect was okay because there were not many people left. Zhao Dong had just stated that the country would do everything it could to help the Taoist sect rebuild.

In fact, this is not very worrying. In the long period of time, Daomen has not suffered heavy losses, but as my father said before.

The foundation of Taoism has always been the common people. It has been spread in culture and will last forever in people's hearts.

Even the Onmyoji of the small days will resurrect. As long as this land still exists and the people on it still exist, the Taoist sect will never perish.

"any drinks?"

Susan seemed to want to create a more relaxed chat atmosphere, or she didn't know what kind of attitude she should use towards Zhang Xiao.

Because there has never been a time when the strongest among wizards, the strongest in the world, was a 16-year-old child.

In the past, he should have been preparing to enter sixth grade.

"You're welcome, Susan. Dumbledore said that you are a good minister. Let me help you and try to stabilize people's hearts.

You know, although he is gone, I will never forget Dumbledore's words. "

Zhang Xiao pulled up a chair and sat down in front of her, pretending to listen carefully.

Susan's movements were a little stiff, and she seemed a little absent-minded. Then Susan lowered her head, covered her face with her hands and rubbed it vigorously.

In an instant, she became the shrewd and capable Minister of Magic again, but her red eyes still revealed that her emotions were obviously not as calm as she appeared.

"are you OK?"

"Nothing, I just remembered something. Dumbledore was calling on wizards to stand up, be as fearless and brave as you, and dedicate your strength to more people.

Most of the Bones family signed up, as did I, but Dumbledore didn't agree.

He said, Susan, the Ministry of Magic still needs you, the wizarding world also needs you, and Zhang also needs your help.

So I stayed. "

Zhang Xiao was silent for a while: "They are also very brave."

"Okay Zhang, let's get down to business."

Susan crossed her fingers and said seriously:

"First of all, Professor Dumbledore had a serious talk with us once before he was alive about the future arrangements.

So after a vote and deliberation, we would like to invite you to serve as the First Wizard of the Wizengamot. "

Chief Wizard of the Wizengamot?

Zhang Xiao was stunned. He really didn't expect that this was what Dumbledore left behind.

First of all, you must understand what the Wizengamot is. It is the highest court of wizards and judges.

But in fact, it is more like the 'Meeting of Wise Men' in British history.

It should be said that it is a combination of courts and parliament, because the Wizengamot can impeach the Minister of Magic.

Once two-thirds pass, a recall can proceed.

Dumbledore once used the impeachment of the Wizengamot to intimidate Cornelius Fudge.

The chief wizard is a collection of justices and speakers. It can be said to be a very important position.

It is not an exaggeration to say that he is the second-in-command of the British Ministry of Magic.

"Dumbledore said that you will have to be the headmaster of Hogwarts later on. If you are a minister, you will be too busy.

You won't be able to allocate your energy, so he suggested that I stay, at least don't let too much heavy work occupy your energy. "

Susan smiled self-deprecatingly, and Zhang Xiao understood that this was the helper Dumbledore had left for him.

Just like Professor Sprout, once he is older.

These powers will slowly pass into your own hands.

"The second item is about a higher level. Dumbledore convinced the International Federation of Wizards to invite you to serve as the special president."

Zhang Xiao was silent for a while, raised his eyebrows, and was a little surprised:

"Those old antiques actually agreed?"

How serious the wizards are in being conservative and old-fashioned can be seen from their ability to stick to their traditions for hundreds of years without wavering.

"In fact, they objected very fiercely -" Susan shrugged: "But Dumbledore convinced them with just one sentence."

She looked at Zhang Xiao and said softly:

"Wizard. Power is power. If you don't agree, I can try to have a glorious duel with you."

Well, I am still the special president of the International Federation of Wizards.

Zhang Xiao's heart was not touched at all. Dumbledore was not wrong. In fact, he had always been a person with a low desire for power.

Mainly because of the trouble, if possible, he would rather travel between mountains and seas.

"The Wizengamot has also decided to award you with the Order of Merlin, First Class."

Susan Bones took out an exquisite wooden box from under the table and pushed it in front of Zhang Xiao.

"It is, but I don't think you care."

"You guessed it right——"

Zhang Xiao didn't even open the box, but looked at Susan and said softly:

"Let's get straight to the point. It should be what you just argued about?"

Susan was a little surprised at the keenness of the young man in front of her, and she sighed:

"Yes, the current situation has changed a lot, and the foundation for the existence of the Ministry of Magic in various countries has been lost.

There are some wizards who want to build a wizarding country and integrate it into a whole————"

"Building a kingdom of wizards? Founding a nation?"

Zhang Xiao raised his eyebrows and sneered: "Have they figured out that we took them in and established a wizarding country?

Are they still asking to set aside a space for them? "

Susan was silent, obviously Zhang Xiao's guess was correct.

"Tell them to get out or stay there, those are the only two options."

"Zhang, don't worry. In fact, we don't agree with it either. This is just the clamor of a small group of wizards."

Susan waved her hand and said seriously:

"We're actually thinking about how wizards can fully integrate into Muggles.

Dumbledore once said a wonderful idea, which is to use magic nets, wands and alchemy techniques to make magic usable by ordinary people. "

She took a deep breath: "We did the experiment, and it works! Although the Muggle only emitted a simple fluorescent flash.

But he really succeeded! "

Zhang Xiao recalled the thoughts that Nick Flamel and Dumbledore had when they were chatting together.

It was a wonderful era when everyone could master magic, an era where technology and magic went hand in hand.

The Weave turns magic into a tool rather than a gift.

"So what's the decision now?"

“The ministries of magic in various countries were dissolved and merged into the International Federation of Wizards to establish a new system to lead the integration of Muggles and wizards.

Expand the scale of each school. Research the expansion and popularization of magic wands.

Mr. Zhao said that he could arrange several places for us to use as office space.

And he is extremely interested in the expansion of magic and said he would wait until you have time to talk in detail."

"It's okay -" Zhang Xiao stood up. He must be interested. If you think about it, you can imagine how great changes will be brought about once ordinary people can use magic, and the integration with technology will bring about.

But now he feels a little hesitant.

Because once Taoism and magic are combined, it is the path of the ancient immortals.

The question is, can the current world still support the Ancient Immortal?

If not, once magic becomes popular, Taoism will definitely be impacted and affected.

So he needs to think, now that he is a heavenly master, the future of the Taoist sect is also in his own hands.

"Ms. Susan, that's it. Report any situation as soon as possible."

Zhang Xiao stood up, nodded at her, and prepared to leave.

"etc--"

Susan said hurriedly. Zhang Xiao turned around and found that the Minister of Magic had stood up. She walked out from behind the desk and straightened her clothes.

"Everything is in a mess now and everyone is busy, but... I think I should at least tell you."

She bent down and said earnestly:

"Thanks--"

Zhang Xiao was startled for a moment and waved his hand:

"You're welcome"

"Heavenly Master——"

A row of disciples stood in front of them and said respectfully.

Only then did Zhang Xiao discover that there were some disciples of Jin Guang San Cun in Longhu Mountain.

And I know them all, they are the same candidates who took the teaching exam two years ago.

Thinking back to that somewhat unusual exam.

"So." Zhang Xiao said slowly: "These are all arranged by the Heavenly Master?"

The oldest, honest-looking disciple said in a low voice:

"After we were judged to have failed that day, we were taken to the side hall to wait. The Heavenly Master came over to lecture us.

The Heavenly Master did not explain the reason, but said that there will be great changes between heaven and earth.

I am waiting for this big exam not because I am not qualified, but because I am waiting for an opportunity. "

As he spoke, he shed tears and said with a sob:

"To this day, we have discovered that it was because the Heavenly Master wanted to leave some seeds, so he allowed us to remain useful."

Zhang Xiao couldn't help but put himself into the role of the Heavenly Master.

If I were in my grandfather's situation at that time, would I be able to use the known information to arrange all of this?

He thought about it for a long time, but actually he already knew the answer.

"Heavenly Master——"

A disciple suddenly said.

"That day when the Heavenly Master was chatting with me and others, the disciple once boldly asked the Heavenly Master why he arranged it like this.

But the Heavenly Master laughed loudly and said that if something unexpected happened in the future, we would be able to come in handy.

The disciple asked again what the accident was and how to solve it.

However, the Celestial Master smiled and said nothing. He only said that he believed that the next Celestial Master would be the most outstanding Celestial Master in the Taoist sect, and he would definitely be able to solve the problem. "

Zhang Xiao was speechless for a long time.

After a long time, he waved everyone to leave.

Came to the Quiet Room again, only this time.

He wants to try to master the power of heaven and the magic network.
