Versatile Mage

Mo Fan applied Fusion magic and fused Summoning magic with his Lightning magic. The ancient magic portal opened. The portal led him to the Thousand Tribe Elf Tower. Mo Fan summoned the mighty lightning general below the Elf King’s throne, Raiju. It was standing on top of clouds.

“Granny Lan, stop him from summoning his elf. He can summon Raiju!” Ruan Feiyan shouted.

Raiju was more powerful than the Royal Pattern Wolf. Although the Royal Pattern Wolf could become stronger as the battle progressed, it required sufficient time to collect various royal patterns. Raiju, on the other hand, could inflict direct damage with its average ruler-level power. In fact, Raiju could kill a Super Level mage with ease!

“He won’t have a chance.”

While Mo Fan was focusing on opening the ancient magic portal, an old man appeared suddenly from the tangled pine grove. The old man held a flaming red spear. He used bizarre Wind element power and appeared behind Mo Fan.

His flaming red spear was imbued with the power of a whirlwind electric drill. When Mo Fan turned around, the old man’s flaming red spear transformed into a life-threatening fire dragon. The fire dragon lunged at Mo Fan ferociously.

“It’s Grandpa Ye!”

“Kill him! Kill him!”

The crowd, just moments ago, had wondered why Grandpa Ye wasn’t joining the fight. Grandpa Ye was very close to Seventh Granny. He had been waiting…

A Summoning element mage not only had to pay full attention when casting the spell, but he also had to act swiftly in finding his targeted summoning creature. While the Summoning element mage was under these circumstances, he certainly could not observe his surroundings.

Grandpa Ye took advantage of this opportunity to attack Mo Fan!

Grandpa Ye was one of the oldest elders. The organization structure in Licheng Afterglow Island was straightforward. The seven grannies and two grandpas had the final say in everything.

They determined “Grannies” and “Grandpas” based on an annual competition instead of the level of seniority. The strongest nine would be given the title Grannies and Grandpas.

Apart from Song Feiyao being the youngest among the Grannies and Grandpas, the rest of them were from the older generation. After all, they had cultivated in the Underground Holy Spring for many years.

Grandpa Ye had a high respect among them. He was very strong. No outsiders on this island were a match for Grandpa Ye.

Grandpa Ye appeared with his flaming red spear. He stabbed Mo Fan through the chest. Grandpa Ye sneered.

‘So, you think Licheng Afterglow Island is a cheap fortress where you can just hop on and make a fuss, huh?’ thought Grandpa Ye.

But to his surprise, Mo Fan met his gaze unwaveringly. Most of the time, when Grandpa Ye used his power, he moved at such breakneck speed that nobody could see him. But Mo Fan met his gaze and smirked.

Grandpa Ye was stunned. ‘What’s so funny? I just penetrated your body with my spear!’

Mo Fan’s grin vanished and so did he. There was only a wisp of smoke where he had stood moments before. Grandpa Ye’s spear only hit smoke. There was no flesh, no blood, and definitely no human body being ripped apart.

…

The smoke skirted around Grandpa Ye’s powerful flaming red spear before converging once again. The smoky Mo Fan became solid again and smiled mockingly at him.

Grandpa Ye was shocked. He had never expected Mo Fan to be a Shadow Element expert. Mo Fan had reacted extremely fast. His ability to transform was inexplicable. If Mo Fan continued to turn into smoke every time they attacked him, how are they supposed to kill him?

“Lightning, Summoning, Space, and Shadow elements,” Shu Xiaohua blurted out, noticing the types of magic he had used.

“You’ve already shown us four elements of yours. You don’t have much elemental magic power left. And we haven’t shown you all our experts yet! You’re going to die! You’ll die!” Ruan Feiyan said angrily.

“Kid, you’re quite strong indeed. Although we might not be a match for you in this one-on-one combat, we haven’t started a war of attrition with you yet!” Grandpa Ye said.

He casually took out a cigarette from the pocket on his shirt and smoked it in leisure. Several figures appeared on the mountain path at the other end of the villa. Their outfits were different from others who were younger. They dressed in the same hue from head to toe as if representing a special identity in the Licheng Afterglow Island.

“Grandma!”

When Shu Xiaohua saw an old woman in purple, she looked as though she had found her pillar of strength. She cried and pointed at Mo Fan.

“Grandma, save him just a single breath, I want to make him regret offending me!”

Eldest Granny was quite old. Her skin was parched and wrinkled. She held a walking stick made of lychee wood, adorned with a brilliant pearl. One would have thought Eldest Granny was a frail old woman at a glance, but she exuded the most intimidating aura than all of the others combined.Her powerful aura was much stronger than Grandma Lan and Grandpa Ye!

“Young man, do we have any bad blood between us?” Eldest Granny approached Mo Fan with her walking stick. Her gaze was razor sharp.

“Ask your girl.” Mo Fan chuckled.

“Tell me the truth.” Eldest Granny looked at Shu Xiaohua.

Shu Xiaohua told her everything that had happened when they met Mo Fan. She told him how they had fooled him and broke their contract.

“I see,” said Eldest Granny. “Young man, if you return the holy spring essence to us, I’ll allow you to cultivate it for a month. After a month, you can leave the island freely. But you must swear with your spiritual soul that you will never reveal the secret of this island.” Eldest Granny raised her hand, gesturing for others to be quiet.

“I’m very sorry. I do not have room for negotiation with the people of this island anymore. I prefer to keep the essence for myself, thank you very much. I am not proud of being so greedy but seeing that everyone here is selfish trash, I don’t feel much bad about it,” said Mo Fan.

“Did he lose his mind?!”

“Rip him apart!”

“Eldest Granny, don’t let him defile our ancestral land. We should behead him and use it for our ancestral ritual this year!” The crowd intoned.

Eldest Granny raised her hand once more and the crowd fell silent. Eldest Granny was patient. She did not act recklessly.

“You can’t possibly expect to defeat us all. The Green East Sea God is an apex among the ruler-level beasts. I could have summoned it to kill you, but I didn’t because the fact remains that our young ladies have cheated and offended you. However, we cannot really give the essence to you. Therefore, we cannot give in. Look at the sea level. you still have time before dusk.” Eldest Granny pointed at the sea.

The sea surface reflected the sunset beautifully. The reddish sunset had sunk beneath the water’s surface.

“Are you aware that the lightning disaster almost destroyed the fortress?” asked Mo Fan.

“Yes, I am. But we’re just protecting ourselves in the middle of this chaotic world. If you are here to enforce your version of justice, then I don’t think there’s room for discussion,” Eldest Granny said in an icy cold tone.

“I came to overthrow scumbags like you!” Mo Fan craned his neck and stretched it to relieve the tension on his neck. He stared at the old rulers of the island.

“Old people shouldn’t get out of touch with things in the outside world. Otherwise, you won’t even know that you’ve offended people whom you can’t afford to offend. Everyone in the south is aware of my bad temper, EVERYONE except the Ocean Demons and, of course, you people on this island.”
