Versatile Mage

Wei Guang was familiar with Zhao Jing. After all, he had been trampled underfoot by the powerful Zhao Jing for a long time.

Since Zhao Jing suddenly disappeared, Wei Guang felt that his life had taken a new turn.

The National Forbidden Curse Association recognized him and gave him the long-awaited Earth Pistil, which was the key to becoming a Forbidden Mage. Then, he obtained the unparalleled God’s gift after becoming a Forbidden Mage. He stood out among the crowd and became a dazzling star in the country. Even the Five Continents Magic Association Alliance was paying attention to him.

However, Wei Guang knew that the Five Continents Magic Association Alliance had strict requirements. If someone like Mu Rong did not recommend him, it would be difficult for him to be able to join the Five Continents Magic Association Alliance with his young age, qualifications and achievements.

Therefore, the plan to take down the Extreme South Emperor was the key. He had decided to try his best to fulfill the alliance’s requirements, including hiding the truth about Mu Ningxue’s recruitment.

However, Wei Guang was surprised to find out that it had been possible for him to become a Forbidden Mage only because of Fanxue Mountain and those who fought there!

The Fire Element Earth Pistil was a sacred object that could not be replicated. In fact, Wei Guang had not even known about its origin when he received it.

However, Mu Ningxue knew about it fully well. She knew every detail and could tell him more. Wei Guang realized that he believed her. After all, people who were not involved in this field could not get their hands on a sacred object like the Earth Pistil.

“Once my innate talent is taken away, I’ll die,” said Mu Ningxue. “He has been lying to you and the alliance.” Mu Ningxue pointed to Ice Emperor Mu Rong.

Mu Ningxue did not believe that the Five Continents Magic Association Alliance would allow such use of magic that could kill a Mage. If the alliance did allow it, then such an alliance was not worthy of loyalty and respect.

Wei Guang looked at Mu Rong. Mu Rong walked to Mu Ningxue with anger in his face.

Wei Guang realized what Mu Rong was going to do and immediately stood between him and Mu Ningxue.

He was not someone without a conscience. If Fanxue Mountain had sacrificed so many people’s lives to protect the Earth Pistil that had made him a Forbidden Mage, he would not let Mu Ningxue die here.

“Will the innate talent grafting method kill Mu Ningxue?” Wei Guang stared into Mu Rong’s eyes and asked firmly.

“It doesn’t matter. Don’t forget who you are working for. A great battle would not be possible without sacrifices. You know why the Five Continents Magic Association Alliance, and you and your own team are all struggling in this hell hole. Each of us is ready to sacrifice our lives, and Mu Ningxue can’t choose to just walk away!” Mu Rong responded angrily.

Mu Rong had never expected Wei Guang to betray him.

“I guess the answer is yes, then. I should make it clear to the alliance then,” said Wei Guang.

“How dare you?” Mu Rong was furious. When he shouted, the whole Ice Cave shook.

“Ha! Are you guys doing a stage play? Wei Guang, you are a really ignorant person. Do you think the Five Continents Magic Association Alliance members are like you? Even old mages with little experience know that the magic to steal innate talent will kill the target. Upon issuing the recruitment, the Five Continents Magic Association Alliance agreed to execute it. They knew what would happen to Mu Ningxue. Anything you try will be pointless,” Lady Karolina mocked as she walked to them.

Wei Guang sneered. “It is true that the Five Continents Magic Association Alliance is not absolutely holy. When all members get to vote anonymously on whether to perform the innate talent grafting method despite knowing it will kill people, I think they will all vote in favor since their names will not be taken. However, it will be different if this matter is not handled under the table. They must make decisions under their name. When they don’t have the cover of anonymity, they wouldn’t dare subject a Mage to death by something so evil.”

Everyone in the Five Continents Magic Association Alliance knew that the innate talent grafting method would kill people.

However, they stayed safe as they weren’t the ones doing it. It would be Mu Rong anyway. They could stay behind the curtains and claim they had nothing to do with it. They could ignore the consequences and cross the Avalanche River successfully.

If Mu Ningxue died, Mu Rong would take the blame. He will be accused of hiding the truth from the alliance and stopping at nothing to complete the plan. Mu Rong would be the one to receive the punishment.

As for Mu Rong, he was already a sinner. If he could not make some contributions to this plan to fight the Extreme South Emperor, he might end up in an asylum.

Everyone in the alliance wanted to complete the task and claim to have no blood on their hands. Having Mu Rong as the scapegoat was easy for them.

The alliance secretly allowed it. However, everyone would openly condemn the Ice Emperor, Mu Rong.

“Wei Guang, if we can’t cross the Avalanche River, you will be responsible for the global cold disaster in the future and for over 100 million deaths!” Mu Rong shouted.

Wei Guang paused, but the others could tell he was still going to expose the matter.

“Since my innate talent is the key to crossing the Avalanche River, you could just take me along. I don’t understand why you want to kill me for it,” said Mu Ningxue. “Witch!”

The corners of Lady Karolina’s lips twitched when she heard the word.

Mu Ningxue was also a little surprised at herself for throwing that word out loud. She thought for a while and realized that Mo fan’s influence had rubbed off on her. Being mean was contagious.

Lady Karolina was indeed no different from a witch. She wanted to kill Mu Ningxue and plant her innate talent on herself. Such evil magic was no different from the Cursed Beast of the Black Vatican.

“You don’t need to know about everything,” Lady Karolina said indifferently.

“Since you need my innate talent to serve the whole world, don’t I at least have the right to know why you intend to kill me?” said Mu Ningxue.

“Mu Ningxue, if the Holy Rulers have such an ability, we won’t even hesitate for a second. Sacrifice is an honor. Your selfishness and cowardice lead you to question and despise the alliance. Your country is also facing a cold disaster, and thousands of people die every day because of it. Don’t you feel sorry for them?” Yvette said to Mu Ningxue.

“Well said, Yvette. Sacrifice is an honor.” Lady Karolina nodded at the female Holy Ruler with a smile. Then, she looked at Mu Ningxue disdainfully. “My talent needs to be combined with your talent to help the alliance cross the Avalanche River.”

Mu Ningxue smirked. “If that’s the case, grafting your innate talent into me can also help the alliance cross the Avalanche River. After all, sacrifice is an honor according to your faith,” said Mu Ningxue.

“This is ridiculous!” Lady Karolina was enraged, and her voice became high-pitched.

No matter how fiercely Mu Rong, Mu Ningxue, and Wei Guang had quarreled till then, Lady Karolina only looked at them apathetically.

Lady Karolina could not control her emotions at all.
