Versatile Mage Chapter 1463 - Too Ashamed To Live Any Longer

1463 Too Ashamed To Live Any Longer

Edited by Aelryinth

The mountain to the south of Sun Ridge...

Dongfang Mo was pacing back and forth. He had yet to treat his injuries. Some of them had already blistered.

Elder Mo, it wont help if you just keep walking up and down here, Mui Yezhuo said.

Father, lets head back to the village. Theres no way they could have survived, Dongfang Ming said.

Silence! Dongfang Mo snapped anxiously, If anything happens to them, I shall go down with them too! Its all my fault, its all my fault! I wasnt able to stop the Ruler-level creature in time, and they were forced to jump into the volcanic pool. How am I going to explain it to the Mui Clan, Fanxue Mountain, and the people of our clan!?

Why do you even need to explain yourself? The plan was dangerous from the beginning. It was just unlucky that the Kunlun Wind was blowing when they were here! Father, you shouldnt blame yourself for it. Lets just do what were supposed to. If anything, we can just gather another bunch of people to go down and see if they can retrieve their corpses... Dongfang Ming said.

Dongfang Mo kicked Dongfang Ming angrily. Why did he have such an unreliable and narrow-minded son? The fate of their clans was at stake, and yet he was still acting like it was nothing important! If he put the Dongfang Clan in his sons hands, it was only a matter of time before the clan fell!

Old Mo, Old Mo! a middle-aged man suddenly yelled.

Dongfang Mo turned around and noticed silver pillars rising, forming a star-shaped magic formation that lit up the entire mountain.

Is...is that... Dongfang Mo was shocked when he saw the light.

Could it be that they had destroyed the Sarkinite node?

Quick, connect with them! Dongfang Mo blurted out.

The middle-aged man immediately called a few Space mages over. They stood in six symmetrical spots, guiding the energy of the Scroll of Space to them.

Come, lets go and receive them! Who would have thought...who would have thought! Dongfang Mo was overjoyed. He was the first to jump into the magic formation.

He initially thought the whole group was going to be wiped out in the volcanic pool. To his surprise, they had actually accomplished the difficult mission! It was unbelievable that they managed to destroy the Sarkinite even after they were ambushed by the Fiery-Winged Tyrant!

Mui Yezhuo and Dongfang Mo immediately led the way and went inside the Portal.

A bunch of people swiftly disappeared from the mountain, leaving just a few young Mages behind to keep watch. They would have to activate the Portal again to leave the fire vein.

HAHAHA, its so great to know that all of you are fine... huh, why are there so many people in here? Dongfang Mo approached Mui Guangqing and the others in great humor.

Dongfang Mo and Mui Yezhuo were dumbfounded when they saw a group of people tied up in a corner after they arrived in the cave.

What happened here? Didnt they send only one group of people down? Why was there another group of people here?

Isnt that Mu Xumian? Mui Yezhuo immediately recognized her. Her pale face still had some burn marks on it.

Mu Xumian had regained consciousness, yet she was completely restricted by the Rebelling Shadows, keeping her in an extremely vulnerable state.

Qi Shan brought them in here. That piece of shit... our clan has been treating him like an honorable guest! Even if Mui Nuxin decided to seek happiness elsewhere, he still couldnt repay our clans kindness to him, not to mention that Mui Nuxin was never in an official relationship with him. Not only did he betray us, he even tried to get us killed... that son of a b**ch! Mui Zhuocheng cursed, extremely angry at Qi Shan.

Everyone had risked their lives to come here. They finally had a glimpse of hope of leaving the place, yet it was almost ruined by the people of the Mu Clan. How could they not hold a grudge against Qi Shan?

They all thought Qi Shan was a real man when he was brave enough to prove himself again despite the circumstances, yet he turned out to be such a vile person. What he did was utterly disgusting and infuriating!

Dongfang Mo and Mui Yezhuo exchanged glances with one another. They did not expect so many things to have happened in the underground cave, nor could they imagine Mu Xumian, a Super Mage, being defeated and bound up in a corner like a prisoner. She had completely lost her demeanor as a Super Mage!

Mu Xumian might not be as strong as they were, but she was still quite reputable in the Mu Clan!

However, Dongfang Mo and Mui Yezhuo trembled in anger when they realized what the Mu Clan had tried to do!

Why dont we just kill them? They were being so cruel and vicious to us, why should we show any mercy to them? the angry Mui Zhuocheng grunted.

Dont. The public wont see the Mu Clans true nature if we kill them. We need them alive, and to make sure the people of the Mu Clan claim these scum themselves. The more attention it gathers the better it is for us. Well tell the world how the Mu Clan is treating other renowned clans like us. Now that weve caught them red-handed, well make them pay and destroy their reputation, too! Mo Fan, what do you say? Mui Guangqing refuted calmly.

I agree. Killing them wont bring us any benefits. We would only be disgusted by it, Mo Fan nodded.

The people of the Mu Clan were so despicable; they were busy setting people up when the country was in such a precarious situation. Once the news was spread to the public, the Mu Clan was going to suffer a lot more, and they might even have to compensate the three clans for the loss!

Mo Fan, its all thanks to you. You are the savior of our clans. From now on, the Fanxue Mountains problems are our Dongfang Clans problems too, Dongfang Mo patted Mo Fan on the shoulder gratefully.

Yeah, luckily, the old clan master was smart enough to cooperate with Fanxue Mountain. Even if we managed to find another way to enter this place, wed still have ended up being set up by the Mu Clan. Now that the Mu Clan has tripped so badly, well be able to use it to our advantage! Mui Yezhuo was greatly impressed by Mo Fan.

They were able to turn peril into safety despite the unexpected twists. Not only did the two clans have the chance to excavate the fire vein, they even had a chance to make the Mu Clan suffer for their actions!

Mu Xumian was a well-known representative of the Mu Clan, so the Mu Clan was surely related to her actions. It was likely that the Mu Clans public relations people would come begging for mercy in no time. They would have to shed their skin if they tried to repatriate Mu Xumian!

Mu Xumian felt like dying when she realized she had suddenly become a token for the two clans to get their revenge on the Mu Clan.

It was supposed to be a smart ambush, setting the two clans back even further and seizing control of their property. How had it ended up like this?...

Most importantly, everyone would learn that she had been defeated by an Advanced Mage. Even if the clan redeemed her, she would just find a tree and hang herself!

The group was worn out when they returned to Wangyang Station safely. They immediately fell into deep sleep on their beds. Even those whose injuries were being treated fell asleep like stones.

The rest of the work was no longer Mo Fans concern. However, he was still bothered by the Spatial Relay Point. He reminded the people of the Mui Clan and the Dongfang Clan not to set foot in the place unless it was necessary.

There were no useful resources inside the White Lava. Mo Fan asked Dongfang Mo and Mui Yezhuo to search the area where he had discovered the Meteor Scarlet instead. He believed it was where the resources of the fire vein could be found.

They were able to find some useful ores after a quick search. The place was so rich in resources that both Dongfang Mo and Mui Yezhuo were almost drooling.

The fire vein was way more valuable than they had expected. Apart from the extremely rare Primitive Soul-grade Flame that Mo Fan had taken, they also found three other Soul-grade Fire Seeds that were already shaped, more than thirty Spirit-grade Fire Seeds, and lots of Soul Seed Pieces and Fundamental Crystals. They did not even want to leave the place!

They still had to find and excavate the remaining resources in the fire vein. Mo Fan had already made a huge profit by claiming the Primitive Soul-grade Flame. Fanxue Mountain would also get a portion of the profits after the resources were refined and sold. Mo Fan did not feel he had lost out by not claiming the resources first.

It was better to share the profits. Besides, Fanxue Mountain had basically befriended two reliable allies with this operation. With their help, the Mu Clan would not be as threatening as before. They would no longer be able to pick on Mu Ningxue as they had in the past!

Say, whats with the ancient town? What do you think the eye was? Zhao Manyan could not help but ask curiously.

Do you believe in turning back time? Mo Fan asked.

Not really. If time can be turned back, wed be stuck in the loop forever, Zhao Manyan said.

The fact that your carvings are still around means only the town was restored. I think the eye is some kind of Dimensional Magic with restorative power. Perhaps it has something to do with the Chaos Element... or some other Elements, Mo Fan conjectured.

The eye was frightening to look at in the first place, but now that I think about it, it didnt look alive, Zhao Manyan recalled.

Its most likely some ancient magic, or maybe an ancient Forbidden Magic... either way, its beyond our reach for now, Mo Fan summed up.

Youre right, there are a lot of things that we still dont know in this world, Zhao Manyan said. He let out a sigh, planning to toss everything he saw to the back of mind.

He decided not to think about the things he could not understand. He was not the kind of person that would bring trouble to himself.

Mo Fan was the kind that would worry about things only when they came, so he could not care less about things that he did not understand.

Say, why dont we go have some fun tonight? Zhao Manyan suggested.

Mu Bai was meditating on the couch, and suddenly opened his eyes. Zhao Manyan happened to notice his reaction too. He said with a wide grin, See, what did I say? You always pretend to be a gentleman, yet you woke up as soon as I mentioned it. Lets go, the victory is ours tonight!
