“You will still be injured!” Mu Ningxue protested.

“I won’t die so easily. Stop being distracted and prepare to fire the next arrow!” Mo Fan answered her.

The lightning spikes tore Mo Fan’s shirt to pieces, leaving scorched marks on his tanned skin, like countless whips were lashing at him.

Mo Fan took a deep breath. It hurt much more than he had expected!

He had weakened the enemy’s attack with his Will and the Heavens Gate. He had also transformed it into Lightning Magic, which he was very resistant to, but he was still in great pain, like he had been sentenced to flagellation.

Their two enemies were ridiculously strong. He found it difficult to resist them with his current strength!

However, he had already stood his ground. The two of them could cut through metal when their minds were one!

Mo Fan was well aware of his duty!

“Lightning Meridian Points, give me your strength!”

Mo Fan switched his approach as the burden on his body increased, asserting control over the Lightning Magic that was whipping at him.

His eyes darkened and started flickering like wild lightning. He looked up and saw two white flashes slicing through the clouds. The wild lightning surged down at the world of ice like serpents!

“Lightning Dragon Tail!”

Mo Fan’s meridian points glowed like lightning. He had constructed a Star Palace merely by connecting the Lightning Meridian Points.

Mu Yinfeng tried to interrupt Mo Fan’s Channeling with her Wind Cry. To her surprise, Mo Fan was not using his mental strength to construct the Star Palace. He was using his meridians instead!

Huge lightning bolts appeared in the thick clouds, flickering with destructive red flashes of light.

More lightning bolts intertwined and formed a dragon’s tail, slamming down towards the ground. It instantly blew Mu Feiluan’s icy mountain straight into powder!

—

The Lightning Dragon Tail was heading straight at Mu Yinfeng. She tried to dodge it with her speed, but the dragon tail was too massive, consisting of hundreds of huge lightning bolts. Mu Yinfeng couldn’t fly out of its range!

The sky and the ground shook violently. The people on Mu Clan Mountain could not see a thing in the face of the blinding light.

The wings on Mu Yinfeng’s back almost snapped in half as the dragon tail sent her spiraling to the ground. Its lightning wrapped around Mu Yinfeng like snakes as she fell into the rift valley Mu Ningxue had created.

A deep pit the size of a lake appeared in the long rift valley. The disciples of the Mu Clan could see it clearly from a great distance away!

They had thought the battle involving Mu Feiluan, Mu Yinfeng, and Mu Ningxue was a showdown between supernatural entities. Little did they know, Mo Fan’s strength was not lacking to any of them. His Lightning Magic could easily slaughter thousands of demon creatures in an instant!

—

Mu Feiluan was stunned when he saw Mu Yinfeng crash into the pit.

He thought Mo Fan would sustain great injuries from Mu Yinfeng’s attack. To his surprise, Mo Fan was able to counter it with a single strong move. The Lightning Dragon Tail was almost as strong as a tier-three Super Spell!

Most importantly, the guy’s Lightning did not even have a Heaven Seed!

If Mo Fan was lucky enough to acquire a Lightning Heaven Seed one day, the spell would be even more terrifying!

How are these two so strong? It has not been that long since the World College Tournament!

If they had not kidnapped Mu Zhuoyun to force Mu Ningxue to come to Mu Clan Mountain, these two might have ended up strong enough to challenge them without relying on the Ice Crystal Bow, given enough time!

“Heh, I did it again,” Mo Fan grinned, revealing his white teeth.

His teeth were oddly white, because his whole face was scorched black by lightning.

Mu Ningxue had no idea why Mo Fan was still able to smile in such a grim situation. Her heart was tingling when she saw Mo Fan covered in wounds after withstanding the combined attack from Mu Yinfeng and Mu Feiluan.

Mo Fan had remained at her side regardless of what happened over the years. He was always on her side when she was humiliated and challenging unbeatable opponents.

Meanwhile, she had only done everything for her own sake. She had never done anything for Mo Fan.

When she was young, she chose to run away when she could not handle the hardship, as she did not understand her mother’s motives. She had asked Mo Fan to run away with her.

“You knew we couldn’t run away back then, right?” Mu Ningxue asked him.

Mo Fan did not understand what Mu Ningxue was referring to. After all, Mu Ningxue had never discussed their naïve elopement in the past.

A poor kid eloping with the rich daughter of a wealthy family?

Mo Fan’s thoughts had matured when he was still young. He knew how stupid his action was. He knew Mu Ningxue was not really going to run away with him.

She would eventually return to her castle. She would only receive a scolding from her family, but the consequences were far worse for him. If it had happened in ancient times, they would have beaten him to death. As for the modern era, he might not die as a consequence, but he would lose all his dignity. After all, the poor were always working for the rich!

“Of course I knew,” Mo Fan replied. He did not understand why she would bring it up now. Nevertheless, talking would not disturb them from gathering their breath.

“Why did you have to destroy your future then?” Mu Ningxue wanted to know. Her arrogance had almost cost Mo Fan his chance to enroll in a magic school.

“If I hadn’t done it, how would I have learned the difference between us?

“If I hadn’t done it, would I have clenched my teeth and worked so hard to earn what I want?

“After all, your heart is already mine. I just lack the strength to claim it… Now that you mention it, I’m still not strong enough. Otherwise, I would have long beaten those two assh**** to the ground and rubbed the soles of my shoes on them!” Mo Fan said.

“They aren’t the only ones in the Mu Clan. It has many more strong Mages,” Mu Ningxue warned him.

“That’s fine, it’s not like I have come unprepared. I can teach them what a real demon is if necessary!” Mo Fan poured a sacred Potion from the Parthenon Temple into his mouth.

The sacred Potion was imbued with many Blessings. It would heal his injuries like a Healer’s Healing Spirit.

Mo Fan had great resistance to any Lightning Magic. He also had outstanding physical attributes from the Demon Element. The wounds would not affect him much.

Mu Ningxue picked up the arrow stuck in the ground that had long lost its effects as Mo Fan finished drinking the Potion.

It seemed like she had gathered her breath, too.

She put the arrow on her hand and sliced her palm. Fresh blood immediately oozed out of the cut.

Mo Fan was stunned. He had no idea what Mu Ningxue was doing.

Mu Ningxue grasped the arrow firmly with her bleeding hand. The blood spread down its shaft to its feathers.

The Soul Formation Arrow erupted into flames after absorbing Mu Ningxue’s blood!

It was supposed to be an ice arrow, but the Runes on it were burning like an ancient power had been awakened!

“Blood Release is the final Seal of this Bow.

“Even though removing the final Seal is pushing myself a little too far, I don’t want you to be hurt again because of me.”

Mu Ningxue’s whole body turned red. The ancient Bow also pulsed with a sinister red light, blazing with jagged edges, as if it was burning her soul.

The red flame was not releasing any heat. An evil chill spread across the whole area instead, as if it had been placed into the depths of a freezing bottomless abyss!
