… …
There was a small bonfire. The bright red flames did not contain any fuel, as if they were born out of thin air. From time to time, small tongues of flame would appear and lick the fragrant barbecued meat on top of the flames.
After sprinkling a little cumin, the wonderful aroma once again assailed his nostrils. Mofan sat down on the pile of waste and started nibbling on the meat.
The texture of the Manatees' meat was even better than Kobe beef. The sturdy outer layer of meat could ensure that the high-temperature flames would not burn them quickly, while allowing the tender meat inside to be cooked quickly.
In the ruins of the city, a man sitting next to the bonfire was eating with great relish. No matter how many Magical Beasts and monsters roared around him, they could not disturb him.
Of course, even if those powerful Sea Monsters wanted to come closer, once they discovered the corpses of the Frostaxe Manatees scattered around, they would not dare to provoke this human!
In the dusky city, only the bonfire was relatively bright. At the limit of the bonfire's illumination, a pair of slender legs appeared and slowly walked toward Mofan.
He was wearing a pair of rather exquisite brown leather shoes, with a shiny surface. A person who could keep his shoes spotless in Shanghai was not a clean freak or obsessive-compulsive disorder, but a person who had the strength to stand above most dangers.
Mofan saw the man walking toward him from the dusky city. Naturally, he also noticed the pair of clean leather shoes. However, it did not affect his appetite. He continued to bite off a piece of tender meat and chewed with his mouth full.
"You must be Wei Guang?" The man walked over and sized up Mofan at a close distance.
He confirmed Mofan's eye color, Mofan's hairstyle, and Mofan's clothes.
"I'm not your Yin Cuo Yin," Mofan replied vaguely with his mouth full of beef.
"You don't have to hide it. I saw you kill those Frostaxe Manatees. You may be able to disguise and change your appearance, but your strength is the same. As far as I know, you are the only person in China who has reached this level of strength at this age," the middle-aged man smiled.
Mofan was baffled. He raised his head to look at this complete stranger.
Why did everyone think that he was Wei Guang?
Was Wei Guang very strong?
Was he as handsome as him?
"China is so big, there are hidden dragons and crouching tigers. I'm not Wei Guang. You've got the wrong person. You, on the other hand, have a gold-patterned undershirt under your clothes. I remember seeing this kind of attire in the Holy City. You're from the Holy City, right? "Mofan asked.
"You do have some discerning eyes. So, are you going to surrender yourself, or do you want to challenge me? You were severely injured in the Southernmost Continent, and your Forbidden Magic Bridge was sealed. Without the Forbidden Magic, you are no different from an ordinary Super Mage, "the middle-aged man said.
"I'm not Wei Guang. If there's nothing else, don't disturb me while I'm eating barbecue," Mofan replied.
"Do you know who I am?" The middle-aged man did not seem to be in a hurry.
"I don't."
"Of course you don't know. I'm from the Holy City, but I've never done anything in the name of the Holy City. You can call me a Holy Shadow Apostle, a Ranking Angel." When the middle-aged man said his Holy Shadow name, he seemed very proud.
"Aren't there only seven Angels in the Holy City?" Mofan was puzzled.
"That's the seven Archangels. The world is so big, and there are so many places to hide evil. It's impossible for the seven Archangels to do everything in person," the Holy Shadow Apostle said.
"So what are you here for? You only told me your title, but you didn't tell me your name. Don't you have a name?" Mofan asked, looking at the man's face.
"I'm Ke Ye, I'm here to take your life," the Holy Shadow Apostle said.
Mo Fan was astounded. He stared at Ke Ye for a few seconds before saying, "You scared the crap out of me, I thought you were interested in my barbecue. I like to enjoy my food alone, I refuse to share it with you."
The corner of Ke Ye's mouth twitched. He glanced at the thigh roasting over the bonfire and sneered, "I don't mind waiting for you to finish your last meal."
"That won't be necessary, I need to roast them slowly over a small fire. Since I'm still waiting, why don't I beat you up and ask you to leave first? That way, I won't disturb my meal," Mo Fan slowly rose to his feet. His aura had changed, too.
The city was dark, and the ruins of buildings were everywhere. The twisted steel bars were suspended in the air, and the weak moonlight shone down, elongating them. It made the place look even more terrifying.
As Mofan and Ke Ye stared into each other's eyes, the surroundings became even darker. The city, the ruins, and the moonlight seemed to be soaked in ink. For a moment, they could only see the area lit up by the bonfire.
In the area, two tall men were facing each other. Their weapons were not clashing, yet they could already hear the intense sounds of weapons clashing!
"Forbidden Mage level?" Mofan suddenly sensed the man's aura surging.
The extraordinary power seemed to have expanded his figure infinitely. His aura had turned into a giant that could trample Qin Nan under his feet!
It was very surprising.
The middle-aged man with an annoying temperament turned out to be a Forbidden Mage …
However, on second thought, Mofan could understand why. After all, the man was here to take Wei Guang's life, and Wei Guang seemed to be the infamous Fire Forbidden Mage from a year ago. Mofan finally remembered.
Trying to kill a Forbidden Mage from China?
Was there something wrong with the Angel from the Sacred City? Or had Wei Guang committed some heinous crime that resulted in the Sacred City's judgment?
That being said, with the Sacred City's attitude, it was unlikely that Wei Guang had done something bad, but it was at least against the Sacred City's will.
As a matter of fact, Mofan was feeling a little pressured, but he was also a little excited at the same time.
Apart from his demon form, he had never fought a Forbidden Mage before. He wondered if the man in front of him had reached the level where he could cast a Forbidden Spell on his own.
Mofan's strength had skyrocketed after coming out of seclusion. It was no longer interesting for him to fight against an ordinary Ruler-level expert.
Mofan was only looking for a half-Tabbit Forbidden Mage to practice his skills. To his surprise, he ended up stumbling into a Forbidden Mage that was trying to take his life.
That being said, Mofan was not worried if the man could cast a Forbidden Spell on his own.
Casting a Forbidden Spell in the Magic City was the same as committing suicide. The Emperor-level sea monsters were still lurking in ambush. Any wave of a Forbidden Spell would attract them and make them go berserk. Mofan did not believe Ke Ye was unaware of that.
