Their strength was not on the same level at all. The young man called Barbaro was frozen in place as the frost fell on him. The whole process only took a few seconds.
The landscaper was dumbfounded. He stood there, not even having the courage to make a move.
The tourists were terrified, too. They did not expect a young man who was alive and kicking just a moment ago would turn into a block of ice without any sign of life!
Bartholomew glanced at his masterpiece and smiled. He turned around and headed for the higher part of Mount Lanmu.
…
No one dared to stop him. The landscaper even forgot to notify the Magic Association. Bartholomew soon disappeared from the crowd's sight.
Bartholomew came to a stop when he reached the higher part of the forest, as if he was waiting for someone.
Not long after, a man wearing a hat walked out. He used the brim of his hat to cover most of his face, and his whole person exuded a somewhat gloomy aura.
"Did you bring the thing?" the man asked.
"Of course." Bartholomew casually tossed an ironwood box to the man under the brim of his hat.
The man seemed to be very interested in the box. He quickly caught it and opened it carefully to check its contents.
"Don't worry, we have a good herbalist too. He must be as good as the Tyrant Titan's Heart," Bartholomew said.
"It's very important. We can't afford to make any mistakes," the man said.
"Of course I'll be fine," Bartholomew smiled.
The man was about to speak when his ears suddenly twitched. He focused on the sound coming from the woods not far away.
"Someone is following you!" the man snarled.
"It's fine, I just stole something. I think the people of the Magic Association are here to punish me. I'll deal with them," Bartholomew smiled.
"Humph, you know the consequences if anything goes wrong!" After the man with the brim hat said this, his figure immediately hid behind a tree. Under the shade of the tree, his silhouette became blurry. If one didn't look carefully, they wouldn't be able to discover his existence.
"Alright, I, Bartholomew, have been with the Guild of the Wicked for so many years. Do you think I'm afraid of a mere Magic Association? You can go now. Leave this place to me," Bartholomew said nonchalantly.
The man in the hat retreated far away, but he did not leave. He was obviously more cautious. He wanted to know who was following them. He had recently received some news that someone was already following their chain. He did not want to bring any trouble to them. That would only make someone even more dissatisfied!
Not long after, a young man and a woman appeared in the woods. They made their way towards Bartholomew, their eyes filled with sharpness.
"What's wrong? Did the Magic Association of Athens not value the Verdun Dusk that much?" Bartholomew was extremely arrogant. He did not leave even though he knew the people of the Magic Association would be here soon.
"What's the Verdun Dusk?" Mofan asked in confusion.
"Oh? You're not here for this? " Bartholomew raised his brows. He could not help but fix his eyes on Mu Ningxue. Mu Ningxue's stunning appearance and temperament immediately attracted Bartholomew's attention.
Bartholomew had plenty of women. Not every woman could pique his interest, but he could not move his eyes away after seeing Mu Ningxue. He did not expect such a stunning woman to exist in this world. It was his first time feeling that Asian women were more alluring!
"I don't know the two of you, but I've done too many things. It's normal for me to forget about you. Why don't you remind me?" Bartholomew wasn't afraid at all. Instead, he asked seriously.
"Xue Xue, we might have the wrong guy. Is he retarded?" Mofan blurted out when he saw Bartholomew's strange reaction.
"It should be him," Mu Ningxue said.
"It's me, of course it's me. I'm honored to be remembered by such a beauty," Bartholomew blurted out.
"Are you Bartholomew?" Mofan took a step forward and asked.
"Yes, I'm Bartholomew."
"The leader of the Guild of the Wicked's Silver Ornaments Association, Bartholomew?" Mofan asked.
"That's me. Thank you for introducing me to the beauty beside you," Bartholomew said.
"So you're also the one who collected the hearts of the children and fed them to the sea monsters?" Mofan asked.
Bartholomew was startled.
It turned out that the two were investigating this matter. Bartholomew was quite surprised. After all, he had done it very discreetly. No one should have noticed it.
However, Bartholomew was not intimidated. He had nothing to be afraid of since they had come looking for him.
"It's me. Are you the parents of a child? Tsk tsk tsk, so the beauty is already a mother. What a pity, I prefer girls who are clean from head to toe …" Bartholomew shook his head. He was still teasing them.
"Oh, we've found the right person …" Mofan nodded. His eyes suddenly flickered with murderous intent. It felt like a violent aura was looming over Bartholomew. "Die!"
The flames of the three Soul-grade Flames surged across Mofan's body. Mofan suddenly erupted like an active volcano without any warning.
Mo Fan arrived in front of Bartholomew with a flicker of flames. A huge fiery dragon sprang into the air as Mo Fan threw an uppercut. Fierce waves of flames surged wildly, setting off the fiery dragon's ferocious aura!
Mofan was extremely quick. His fist was brimming with anger!
Bartholomew had seen many evil people, even the members of the Black Vatican who believed in their sins would spout ridiculous ideas. However, Bartholomew's face was even more disgusting. Talking to someone like him would be an insult to one's soul. The only way to deal with him was to blast him into pieces!
Bartholomew was shocked too. How did the kid attack so suddenly, and with such a ferocious aura? Luckily, his cultivation was quite high, and he immediately froze himself in a thick layer of ice!
The ice was like an armor. Even the fiery serpent had a hard time penetrating it. Bartholomew stared coldly at Mofan from inside the ice. He waited until Mofan's flames dissipated before he came out of the ice.
"I didn't expect you to be so strong at such a young age. If you were fighting someone ordinary, they wouldn't stand a chance against you, but you just had to stumble into me, Bartholomew. You're asking for it …" Bartholomew snarled at Mofan.
"Shut your dog mouth and focus on dying!" Mofan was infuriated. As soon as the Fiery Dance came to an end, an imperious lightning bolt descended from the sky like a storm, blasting the area Bartholomew was in!
Bartholomew tried to use the trees as cover, but he realized the trees were instantly vaporized by the lightning. He found himself in a barren area, surrounded by hundreds of lightning bolts!
Bartholomew did not dare lower his guard when he sensed the power of his opponent's spells. He immediately summoned his defensive equipment to protect himself from the lightning bolts.
"Do you know the consequences of infuriating me!?" Bartholomew's face darkened.
The frost fell rapidly, turning the air extremely cold. It looked like icy stardust falling from the sky, gradually forming a Domain around Bartholomew. Mofan's flames and lightning were immediately suppressed by the Domain. The flames began to fade, and the lightning clouds began to disperse.
"Get out of my way!" Bartholomew raised his hands. A curtain of countless frost stars flew at Mofan, each as quick as a bullet. However, the rocks, trees, and flowers were instantly frozen when they landed on them.
The frost stars were extremely dense. Even the three layers of flames engulfing Mofan were unable to stop them. Mofan was forced to back away.
It was obvious that the guy was a Super Mage. His Ice Element and Domain were enough to crush Mofan's Fire Element!
"Humph, so you're only an Advanced Mage …" Bartholomew wore a disdainful look when he saw Mofan's cultivation.
The man's Aura was quite strong at the start. He was very close to the Super Level, and Bartholomew was a little flustered. However, after some time, Bartholomew realized that even though the man's Fire and Lightning Elements were strong, they were nowhere close to the Super Level. He was able to suppress the man as soon as he applied pressure with his Domain!
It was rare for an Advanced Mage to have such strength, but the Advanced Mage was still an Advanced Mage. There was no way he could stand a chance against a Super Mage!
"Nirvana Ice Domain!" Mu Ningxue unleashed her Domain too. Silver-white frost drifted in the air, and snowflakes as thick as goose feathers fell from the sky. Silver feathers scattered all around Mu Ningxue.
Mu Ningxue stood in the middle of the silver snowflakes. She stood tall and straight, like a snow fairy that had descended from the top of a snowy mountain. She was different, sacred, and proud!
"Ice Element … HAHAHA, aren't you displaying your slight skill in front of an expert by using your Ice Domain in front of me?" Bartholomew burst out laughing.
Mu Ningxue had no intention of talking to a scumbag like him. More silver snowflakes appeared in her Nirvana Ice Domain. Some fell to the ground, some circled her in an orderly manner, and even more drifted in the air, waiting for the queen's orders!
