"You killed it? Did you kill the Scarlet Rending Demon?" Jiang Tu was shocked too. He did not expect Mofan to be so strong!
"Is there anyone else here?" asked Mofan.
"How … how did you do it? That thing is an actual Commander-level creature. We couldn't do anything to it even when we teamed up."
"That's unbelievable, we thought you were dead for sure!"
The members of the national team were utterly dumbfounded. As Mofan had mentioned, there was no one else on the island apart from him. The Scarlet Rending Demon's corpse was right there. Who else could it be if he was not the one who killed it?
But how did he do it? Normally, a few Advanced Magicians would have trouble dealing with a Commander-level demon beast, let alone killing one. It was extremely difficult …
"It seems like the Scarlet Rending Demon was a lot more injured than we thought. Perhaps it would have died if we had held on for a little longer," harrumphed Guan Yu.
The others agreed with Guan Yu's conclusion.
It seemed like it was the only explanation. The Scarlet Rending Demon must have been seriously injured, and Mofan had managed to find its weak spot and killed it. Otherwise, there was no way a Magician at their age could kill a Commander-level demon beast on his own!
Even so, it was still very shocking!!
When they realized that Mofan was only a substitute, they felt more comfortable after seeing Mofan's corpse.
Mofan was too lazy to explain it to them.
On the other hand, Ai Jiangtu's eyes were glued to Mofan's corpse.
He was well aware of the Scarlet Rending Demon's condition. It was true that it was injured, especially the Demon Torture, which had prevented it from controlling the tide. However, the Scarlet Rending Demon was still a terrifying creature. It still possessed the strength of a Commander-level demon beast and some deadly moves. The fact that Mofan was able to kill it proved that Mofan was stronger than he had imagined!
Nan Jue was familiar with Mofan. She knew the guy had Double Innate Elements. She wondered if Mofan had other stronger Elements that he had yet to reveal.
Nan Jue was right. Even though Mofan's strongest Element was the Fire Element on the surface, it was actually the combination of the Fire Element and the Summoning Element. Not only was he able to control the Fire Element after Little Flame Belle possessed him, he was able to transform himself and control the Fire Element too, greatly improving his strength!
… …
The Scarlet Rending Demon was taken care of...
The group carried Mofan back along the path. When Mofan saw an ice dam that had not melted for a long time, he subconsciously glanced at Mu Ningxue.
Mu Ningxue happened to be looking at him too. On one hand, she was having complicated feelings after learning that Mofan had come back to life. On the other hand, Mofan's strength had also exceeded Mu Ningxue's expectations. Mofan, who was initially transparent to her, had more secrets that she could not see through.
"Don't worry about me, it's just a minor injury. I'll be fine in a few days!" Mofan smiled warmly at Mu Ningxue.
According to the others, Mu Ningxue had come straight from the Frozen Sea. Mofan had no choice but to marry her to repay her kindness.
Mu Ningxue did not say a word. She returned to her usual icy self.
It was one thing for her to be worried about Mofan, but the relationship between them was still unclear. Mu Ningxue had never wanted him to die, but it did not necessarily mean she had feelings for him. Her mind was not on that now …
"I promised you that I'll bring the betrothal gifts to your Great Mu. How could I possibly die? What do you think after the World College Tournament? We're not young anymore, "said Mofan.
Mofan was the kind of person who could put on a show all by himself. It did not matter if the person did not say anything, as most people would not be able to stand it if they continued to follow his train of thought. Mofan was quite familiar with Mu Ningxue. He believed that ordinary people with thick skin would struggle to pry open her heart. Only someone like him, who had no sense of shame, would be able to do it.
As he thought, Mu Ningxue's face turned cold when he mentioned the betrothal gifts. She had never seen anyone who was so talkative after suffering such serious injuries! The Scarlet Rending Demon was a Commander-level creature, yet why was he so useless that he could not even take care of a mere Mofan? She could not even have a moment of peace!
Over the past few days, Mofan had been saying the same thing all the time. Almost half of the team believed that the two of them were lovers who were engaged to each other. Otherwise, Nan Jue would not have mentioned that he had scared Mu Ningxue so much. On top of that, the fact that Mu Ningxue had turned into an ice dam over a hundred kilometers long and had the urge to fly over to save her further convinced the others.
…
When they returned to Feiniao City, Mofan was already resting on his bed.
Not long after, Zhao Manyan came to visit him. The guy said with a knowing look, "I knew you wouldn't die so easily … I know what you're going to ask. Nanrong Ni's Healing Ability is outstanding. If it were any other Intermediate Healer, Deeny would have died by now, but Nanrong Ni managed to save her. She even gave her a blessing, so the child will grow up healthier than before."
Mofan let out a relieved sigh.
Luckily, his efforts had not been in vain. He had managed to save the little girl's life.
"Do you want to know who's hiding the truth about the baby? I didn't expect it to be more complicated than we thought. The truth might shock the whole country once we find out who it is …" said Zhao Manyan.
"Did you find out who it is?" asked Mofan.
"We couldn't find out who it is. The trail has come to a dead end in Feiniao City. The person hiding the truth in Feiniao City has been exposed, and is waiting for the Enforcement Union to punish him … but according to Jiang Yu's investigation, the truth is more complicated than that. He had no choice but to hand the case over to the advisors," said Zhao Manyan.
"So it's not just happening in Feiniao City?" asked Mofan curiously.
Normally, the Scarlet Rending Demon and the Scarlet Soaring Demon's perverted fetish was the main reason behind the incident. Why would it involve more complicated things?
"The advisors didn't ask us to investigate the complicated situation further. They just want us to know that we've done a good job by removing a malignant tumor," said Zhao Manyan.
For some reason, Mofan did not feel any better after hearing the words.
Hopefully, the person in charge of the case was as determined as them to get to the bottom of the matter. At least they were not numb enough to allow it to happen in today's society.
"By the way, someone asked the advisors to deliver something to you. They said it's something you've been longing for since you were in the Ancient Capital," said Zhao Manyan.
"What is it?" asked Mofan.
"A tattered feather robe, but it's so old and worn out … speaking of which, why do you want it? It's a token of appreciation for what you did in the Ancient Capital … hey, are you listening to me?" said Zhao Manyan.
"Oh, oh, give it to me. I've been waiting for it for a long time, "said Mofan.
Zhao Manyan had no idea what the tattered feather robe was, but Mofan was quite excited. He did not expect the old man Han Ji would actually give it to him. The feather robe was displayed in the grandest display case in the Museum of the Ancient Capital. It was a priceless artifact, and it had an extraordinary background!
It was a tattered feather, as it had existed for a very long time.
Its name was the Glazed Phoenix Feather. Mofan had chosen it when he saw the Museum of the Ancient Capital using computer technology to simulate its past glory. He had made up his mind to revive it!
It would be the perfect gift for Xinxia.
Mo Fan only had one regret when he was buried in the Space of Death. He had finally come back to life, thus he had to fulfill his wish!

(Author's Note: I finally finished writing the chapter. I went to Douyu to watch LOL livestreams as usual to relax myself. I was surprised to find that Ugliness was also watching the Sorcerers' livestreams. Before I could feel happy, the f * * k said, "This author is too lazy to be a * * hole …"
Brother, I'm looking at your face as I spit out these words! Can I still stream properly!?
