Dongfang Mo was pacing back and forth on the mountain to the south of the Sun Ridge. He had yet to treat his wounds in time. They had already started to fester.
"Elder Mo, it's useless for you to keep pacing back and forth," Mu Yezhuo said.
"Father, I think we should go back to the village. There's no way they'll survive," Dongfang Ming said.
"Shut up!" Dongfang Mo snapped angrily, "If anything happens to them, I'll go down there with them. It's all my fault, I didn't stop the Ruler-level creature in time. They were forced to jump into the lava lake. How am I supposed to explain this to the Mu Clan, Fanxue Mountain, and my own clan!? "
"How are you supposed to explain this to them? It's already very dangerous. It's all their fault for being so unlucky. The Kunlun Wind happened to be here. Father, don't blame yourself too much. We'll just do what we should do. If worse comes to worst, we can just find a group of people to go down there and see if we can retrieve their remains …" Dongfang Ming said.
Dongfang Mo was so angry that he kicked Dongfang Ming fiercely. How could he have such a useless and narrow-minded son? How could he still be so narrow-minded when it concerned the life and death of the two families? It seemed that the Dongfang Family could not be handed over to him in the future. Sooner or later, he would lead the Dongfang Family to destruction!
"Old Mo, Old Mo!" a middle-aged man suddenly yelled in joy.
Dongfang Mo turned his head. Suddenly, he discovered thin pillars of silver light rising from the ground, forming a six-pointed spatial magic array. The dazzling radiance illuminated the entire mountaintop.
"This … this is …" Dongfang Mo stared at the light in astonishment.
Could it be, could it be that they had broken the sarkinite???
"Quick, connect the space to them!" Dongfang Mo yelled.
The middle-aged man immediately gathered the other Space Mages. They stood in six different positions and directed the energy of the scroll to them.
"Come, let's go and get them. What a surprise … what a surprise!" Dongfang Mo was overjoyed. He was the first one to jump into the magic formation.
He thought they were all going to die in the lava lake, but to his surprise, they had accomplished such an important and arduous task. They had managed to break the Sarkinite even when the Fiery-Winged Tyrant had attacked them. It was just too difficult!
Under the lead of Mu Yezhuo and Dongfang Mo, they immediately stepped into the spatial gate.
The group of people quickly disappeared from the top of the mountain, leaving behind a few young Mages to guard the place. They still needed to come out, so they would need to open the Spatial Gate later.
…
"HAHAHA, HAHAHA, I'm glad to see you all are fine … huh, where did you all come from?" Dongfang Mo and the others?
As soon as they entered the cave, they found a group of people tied up in a corner. Dongfang Mo and Mu Yezhuo were dumbfounded.
What was going on? Clearly, a group of people had gone down, so why was there another group of people?
"Isn't that Mu Xiu to the Village?" Mu Yezhuo recognized Mu Xumian with a single glance. Her small, pale face still had some burn marks on it.
Mu Xiu had woken up, but she was being restrained by the Rebellious Magic Shadow. She was at the mercy of the others.
"Qi Shan was the one who brought them here. That son of a b * * ch, our Mui Clan treated you like a VIP. Even if our Mui Nuxin had found someone else, you will never be able to repay our kindness, yet you betrayed us and tried to kill us … you are worse than a pig or a dog!" Mui Zhuocheng was infuriated. He kept cursing and kicking Qi Shan.
Everyone had risked their lives to come here. They finally had a glimpse of hope, yet the Mu Clan had almost wiped them out. How could they possibly calm down?
Everyone thought Qi Shan was a man who dared to break and rebuild, yet he turned out to be such a despicable person. It was utterly disgusting and infuriating!
Dongfang Mo and Mui Yezhuo exchanged glances with one another. They did not expect so many things to happen. They could not imagine a Super Mage like Mu Xumian being defeated in the end. She was sitting in a corner like a prisoner. She did not look like a Super Mage at all!
Even though Mu Xumian was not as strong as them, she was still a reputable person in the Mu Clan!
However, Dongfang Mo and Mui Yezhuo were trembling in anger when they thought about how the Mu Clan was trying to harm them!
"Why don't we just kill them? They are so cruel and heartless. Why should we show them mercy?" Mui Zhuocheng asked angrily.
"Don't do that, if we kill them, no one will know the true colors of the Mu Clan. We want them alive, and the people of the Mu Clan will come and bring these scum back. We have to make a big fuss out of this, the bigger the better. Let's see how the Mu Clan treats renowned clans like us. We have suffered a great loss here. We must make them pay us back with double the compensation. We must make them lose their dignity and reputation! Mofan, what do you think? "Mui Guangqing said calmly.
"I think so too. We won't get anything if we kill them, not only will we feel disgusted," Mofan nodded.
The people of the Mu Clan were so despicable, especially when their country was in danger. If the Mu Clan was exposed to the public, they would surely suffer a great loss, and they would even be compensated for it!
"Mofan, it's all thanks to you. You're the savior of our two clans. Fanxue Mountain's business will be our Dongfang Clan's business from now on," Dongfang Mo patted Mofan on the shoulder and said gratefully.
"Yeah, luckily, the old patriarch had the foresight to work with Fanxue Mountain. I believe even if our two clans found a way to enter this place, the Mu Clan would still set us up. Now that the Mu Clan has suffered a great loss, we can take advantage of it and climb up the ladder!" Mui Yezhuo was even more impressed by Mofan.
After all the twists and turns, the danger was finally averted. Not only did the two aristocratic families obtain the fire vein, they also managed to gain leverage over the Mu Clan.
Mu Xumian was a symbol of the Mu Clan. The Mu Xumian was surely responsible for what she had done. The Mu Clan's public relations department would soon come begging for mercy. They would have to pay a heavy price if they wanted to redeem Mu Xumian!
Mu Xumian even had the urge to commit suicide when she realized she was being used as a weapon to retaliate against the Mu Clan.
It was supposed to be a perfect ambush. It was supposed to be able to crush the two clans and steal their assets and wealth, yet it had turned out like this …
Most importantly, it would not take long for everyone to know that she, Mu Xumian, had been defeated by an Advanced Mage. Even if she managed to get her hands on the ransom, she would have no choice but to hang herself on a tree!
…
The group returned to Wangyang Relay Station safely. Everyone was utterly exhausted. They fell asleep as soon as they fell asleep. Even when they were treating their injuries, they slept like corpses.
There was no need for Mo Fan to worry about the rest of the matters. However, the incident at the Space Relay Station still left a lingering fear in his heart. Mo Fan reminded the people of the Mu Clan and the Dongfang Clan not to set foot in that place so easily.
Besides, the White Lava Waterfall did not seem to contain any resources. Mofan asked Dongfang Mo, Mui Yezhuo, and the others to search the well where he had found the Meteor Scarlet. Mofan believed the resources of the fire vein should be there.
As he thought, they soon discovered some important ores in the vein. The two old Mages, Dongfang Mo and Mui Yezhuo, almost drooled when they saw the abundance of ores.
The things inside the fire vein were a lot more valuable than they had imagined. Apart from the Primitive Soul-grade Fire Seed that Mo Fan had taken away, there were three Soul-grade Fire Seeds that had already taken shape, and more than thirty Spirit-grade Fire Seeds. There were still some Soul-grade Fire Seed Pieces, Spirit-grade Seed Pieces, and Fundamental Crystals. They were so happy that they did not want to leave the fire vein.
These resources had to be mined and searched for. Mofan had already made a fortune by taking the Primitive Soul-grade Fire. As for the rest of the resources, they would have to share a portion of the profits with Fanxue Mountain after they were excavated, processed, and sold. Mofan did not feel it was a pity that he did not take them with him.
Everyone had to earn money together. Besides, Fanxue Mountain had made two solid allies. With them taking on the Mu Clan together, the Mu Clan would no longer be as scary as before. They would no longer be able to suppress Mu Ningxue.
…
"Say, what do you think is going on with the ancient town? What exactly is the eye?" Zhao Manyan asked curiously.
"Do you believe time can be reversed?" Mofan asked.
"I don't believe it. If time can be reversed, we would be living in the cycle of reincarnation forever," Zhao Manyan said.
"The words you left behind are still there. It means only the town will be restored. I'm guessing the eye has some kind of dimensional power that can reverse time. Perhaps it's related to the Chaos Element … or some other Element," Mofan said.
"It was shocking when I saw the eye at first, but when I took a closer look, it didn't feel like a living thing," Zhao Manyan recalled.
"It might be some kind of ancient magic, or even an ancient forbidden curse … either way, it's still something we don't understand," Mofan speculated.
"You're right, there are still a lot of things we don't know about in this world." Zhao Manyan let out a relieved sigh after saying this. He decided to forget about what he had seen and heard.
It was better not to think about it if he could not figure it out. Zhao Manyan was not the kind of person to look for trouble.
Mofan was the same. He would not care if he could not figure out what was going on.
"Why don't we have some fun again tonight?" Zhao Manyan suggested.
