Versatile Mage

Little Flame Belle engulfed herself in flames. The pitch-black sky was tinted scarlet as she rose into it, the clouds burning like the braziers of a sacred altar.

The three prisoners and one guard were all capable of flying. They lifted off and took the fight into the sky when they saw Flame Belle Empress flying away.

Flame Belle Empress thoroughly displayed her prowess. Not only was she not struggling to fend off the four Super Mages, her flames rapidly overshadowed their Ice and Water Magic.

“Another Ruler-level creature!?”

The City Hunters in the town were dumbfounded.

Super Mages were already at the peak of human society, but the Ruler-level creature was able to take on four of them at once! It had completely toppled the City Hunters’ understanding of things.

The powerful energy leaking out from such a high-level battle could easily crush them into powder if they came within a kilometer, let alone took part in it!

Zhou Li was extremely lucky to be able to survive the fangs of the Ruler-level vampire!

“What should we do now?” a young City Hunter asked blankly.

The fight between the two members of the Blood Tribe was just as shocking. For half a kilometer around them, pools of blood would erupt from the ground at times.

The Flame Belle Empress was fighting four Super Mages in the sky. The constantly shifting colors of the destructive spells were sprinkling down on the town.

“It’s fine, I’ve already contacted the South Wing Platoon. A South Wing Mage is on his way.”

Not every South Wing Mage was on standby all the time, thus they could not send back-up to the scene right away whenever a high-level fight broke out.

“Just one? Can he really stop them?” the captain asked helplessly.

Multiple Super Mages were currently involved in the battle. If the South Wing Platoon only sent one or two South Wing Mages, they might end up watching the battle from a safe distance, just like the City Hunters!

“This is getting interesting, but that’s fine, too. I haven’t been getting much exercise ever since I became Lu Kun,” Lu Kun grinned.

Lu Kun was now completely different from the guy managing the Lu Clan’s mansion. He had put in a lot of effort to disguise himself perfectly as a real human.

However, he must have left a lot of traces while transforming from a savage demon to a cruel tyrant. Otherwise, how had Senior Hunter Leng had his eyes on it?

A demon a Senior Hunter was willing to pay his life to take down was not going to stop at taking away the negative emotions of the workers in a business!

After taking a deep breath, the Red Demon asked with a twisted expression, “You have a unique presence of the Shadow Magic. I’m curious, where did you obtain such a pure dark energy?”

Mo Fan had obtained the Dark Vein in Xiamen.

“It’s fine if you don’t want to tell me. I’ll dissect you slowly and learn it for myself, just like I knew the little girl with you was the daughter of someone I have killed,” Lu Kun went on. The smile on his face twisted even further.

Mo Fan was shocked. Did Lu Kun know Lingling was a Senior Hunter’s daughter from the beginning?

Did he know the contents of the job letter, then? If he knew, he would not have allowed Lu Qingyao to take his blood samples so easily…

“Look at who I am now!” Lu Kun suddenly said in a strange voice.

Mo Fan was distracted by such thoughts. When he refocused, he noticed Lu Kun’s face had changed!

It was a square face with thick brows. It was not necessarily handsome, but it had a unique charm.

Mo Fan had seen the face before in some old photos. It was Senior Hunter Leng!

Lu Kun’s face was exactly the same as Senior Hunter Leng’s! Did the red demon also steal Senior Hunter Leng’s flesh and memories?

“HAHAHA!” the Red Demon burst out laughing.

Mo Fan was withholding his anger.

Even though he had never met Senior Hunter Leng, he knew Senior Hunter Leng was a great man, judging from how well he had taught Lingling.

Not only did the Red Demon kill Senior Hunter Leng, it even stole his memories and put on his face!

“No, you didn’t take over his flesh and his memories,” Mo Fan said after thinking about it further.

“You aren’t wrong about that.” The Red Demon soon returned to Lu Kun’s appearance.

If the Red Demon was able to claim anyone’s body and memories, Mo Fan believed it would have been better for the Red Demon to disguise itself as Senior Hunter Leng!

Senior Hunter Leng had a formidable background and outstanding cultivation, making him the perfect candidate for the Red Demon to disguise itself!

The Red Demon might have killed Senior Hunter Leng, but it did not take over Senior Hunter Leng’s memories and body.

“But it’s true that he died at my hands. He was really stupid,” Lu Kun grinned.

“He might have been reckless for going after you without knowing your true strength, but he wasn’t stupid. He left a job letter,” Mo Fan replied with a cold grin.

“What about it?” Lu Kun sniffed.

“Do you really have no idea what the job you gave to me was?” Mo Fan asked.

Lu Kun seemed confused. It was true that he did not know the contents of the job letter.

“It’s the same job letter Senior Hunter Leng left in the past. I shall put an end to it on his behalf today!” Mo Fan said.

“What was the job letter? What was in it?” Lu Kun suddenly yelled.

“To find you and kill you!” Mo Fan shouted back at him.

Lu Kun went berserk as soon as he heard the words.

He was scraping at the ground with his claws, like he was trying to dig up an ore vein. For some reason, he was throwing a tantrum like an abandoned mad dog after learning the contents of the letter.

“You want to kill me? Everyone wants to kill me! But can you really kill me?!” Lu Kun screamed. His eyes were about to fall out of their sockets. The horns on his forehead extended, almost dangling in front of his face now.

The tail on his back grew further, and was now covered in red scales, like the tail of a mutated crocodile!

His feet had turned into claws now. His six toes sank into the ground.

“I will live for eternity! Wherever there is hatred, there is me!”

The Red Demon had completely lost its mind. Its red Aura surged out at the town like a sandstorm.

Mo Fan was puzzled about why Lu Kun had lost his calm after hearing the contents of the letter, but he did not think it was a bad thing.

It meant Lu Kun was not going to run away!

Mo Fan swore to complete the job that had been left unfinished for so long!
