Back then, for the sake of their own selfishness, the elders of Dawn Isle had stolen an important ancient sculpture, incurring a lightning tribulation. Who knew how many lives had been harmed, and who knew how many cities had been destroyed.
They had pushed the blame to the Totem Beasts and moved to the Dawn Isle.
Mofan believed Sister Ruan and Shu Xiaohua when they mentioned the incident. As a matter of fact, it was easy to see through a lie. Sister Ruan and Shu Xiaohua were well aware of this.
However, Mofan should not have believed their so-called 'guilt, remorse, and atonement'.
They did not want to repeat the same mistake, so they left the Dawn Isle and advised the world not to covet the ancient statues. They even stopped the greedy Hunters for the sake of the people of Carp City …
It was so easy to believe and have a good impression of them. Even the kind and righteous Mofan chose to believe them.
However, in hindsight, Mofan felt like he had overlooked a crucial point!
That was a group of greedy, vicious, and sinful people. They lived on a relatively isolated island, so how could they be expected to teach a group of simple and kind girls with their moral conduct?
Speaking of which, it was the same with most people's judgment. It was too easy to be misled by first impressions. With a little guidance that seemed reasonable, they would decide on a biased but perfect conclusion.
The women of the Dawn Isle were smart enough not to tell Mofan a conclusion that sounded unreasonable. Instead, they used incomplete truths to lead Mofan to an answer that he believed to be reasonable.
…
Mofan could not afford to hold back any longer. He had to return to the fortress immediately.
He summoned the dim Wings of Dawn and Darkness. A pair of black dragon wings filled with an ancient and noble aura unfurled. With a light flap, strong winds blew in reverse and waves surged in reverse!
"You should go back first," Mofan recalled Apas back into the Contract Space.
Apas did not turn around. She circled behind Mofan and reached out her slender arms. She pressed her soft body against him. She obviously wanted Mofan to carry her on his back.
"You've disturbed my slumber. You have to keep bringing me along." Apas had already moved her warm lips close to Mofan's ear. Her seductive charm was on full display.
Apas was extremely skinny, while Mo Fan had a pair of wings on his back. The little Medusa was lying on Mo Fan's back, yet he was able to use the Black Dragon Wings without hindering him!
The problem was, how did such a slender skeleton give birth to such a large and soft body? He wondered if it was a European bloodline or a Medusa's unique Innate Talent. It was a pity that his back and shoulders, which were not as sensitive, benefited from it. He could not help but wonder how much fun it would be to have a large hand and head instead?
"You weren't so gullible in the past, Brother Mofan," Apas smiled. Her bright smile was a huge contrast to her scared and pitiful look.
The same thing had happened once in Egypt. Apas had almost fooled Mo Fan with her cunning. She had turned from a Medusa Queen into a human woman!
However, Mofan still managed to see through her disguise in the end.
Apas was utterly shocked back then!
Her performance was flawless!
She had briefly glanced at the women on Sunset Island. Even though a few of them had outstanding looks, Apas did not think they were comparable to her in terms of appearance and charm …
Was it because wildflowers were more fragrant than domestic flowers?
But that did not mean Mofan would fall for it.
Mo Fan was a cunning fox that had lived for a thousand years. He might be tricked by other people because of his lack of experience and knowledge, but it was impossible for him to take the bait with beautiful women and some old-fashioned stories. Otherwise, why would he be in such a predicament?
"Are you not satisfied that you were outshone by a bunch of women who are not as beautiful as you?" Mofan asked in return.
Humph, men are all pigs! Apas pretended to be cold and arrogant. She was too lazy to answer Mofan's question.
"People change. Many things have changed my opinion and judgment," Mofan said.
"Then what made you so dumb?" Apas asked bluntly.
"Slap!"
Mofan slapped Apas hard on her butt. Apas moaned in anger. She had an urge to bite Mofan on the shoulder and poison the pervert to death!
It was not because something had made Mofan stupid. It was because something had made Mofan think it was the right thing to do!
Zhang Xiaohou was the one that had influenced Mofan. He would stubbornly try to verify a speculation that he was not so sure about. He was hoping that his speculation was wrong, so the Yellow Sea's underground river would not be connected, and the Yellow Sea would be peaceful again. However, he had no choice but to risk his life to verify another possibility, as the consequences would be unimaginable!
While having a good heart, he had to maintain the determination to face the ugly and evil at all times!
"Apas, it's the same when I went to the military base in Egypt to save you when we first met, and now I'm helping the women of Sunset Island. It's the same, because I hope the good things are good and kind from the bottom of my heart. Before I have any evidence that points to a certain conclusion, I will step forward bravely …" Mofan said.
"You've been holding back on me, humph!" Apas scoffed coldly.
"I can't help it. You don't have to feel bad about it, it's the same for me," Mofan said.
"You've been holding back on them, too. Do you know how to find Sunset Island?"
…
A pitch-black winged silhouette flitted across the reed-filled wetland, sticking close to the wetland as it flew past. Its gorgeous figure was a little dark and breathtaking. The sea of reeds was split apart, and two waves of grass were formed behind it, going in opposite directions.
Mofan purposely flew at a low altitude to avoid the strong lightning strikes. The dark clouds above his head were almost pure black. It seemed like the clouds would not dissipate for a few months.
The lightning strikes would leave a hole in the dark clouds. Less than five kilometers away from Mofan, the hole created by the lightning was like an upside-down abyss. Dense lightning arcs flickered in and out of the abyss. They were sometimes dark red, sometimes pale white, and sometimes lit up the whole place like fireworks!
Mofan's silhouette was flickering in and out of the sea of reeds.
The lightning strikes were getting more violent. It seemed like the ancient statues in Martial Enlightenment City were indeed the treasures left behind by a deity. If a mortal tried to steal them, they would incur the wrath of the deity. The deity would not just attack the thief, but the whole world!
They had to reach the fortress as soon as possible. If the lightning strikes that could penetrate the clouds landed on the fortress, the fortress and its people would turn into ashes!
