The Silent Deadly Bolt was three times as strong, and it was obvious that the defensive equipment the group of four had was nowhere strong enough to resist it. Li Kaifeng had already left the middle area the Silent Deadly Bolt was focusing on. However, his body subconsciously shuddered when he saw the terrifying lightning arc spring up as the Silent Deadly Bolt landed on the ground!
“Off you go too…” With a thought, Mo Fan used the Illusionary Claw to grab Li Kaifeng after he was was struck by the lightning and slowly lift him into the air.
Li Kaifeng was tossed toward the boundary of the training ground. Lightning still flickering across his body, he slammed hard into the wall.
“Heaven Ice Frost!” Mu Tingying yelled, feeling a dire threat. Once again, she gathered the power of her Soul-grade Ice Seed and formed an enormous Icebound Coffin on top of Mo Fan, trying to seal him within it.
Suppressed by the strong presence of lightning, Mu Tingying was a lot slower when casting the spell. Mo Fan quickly realized what she was up to.
Mo Fan lifted his gaze and looked at the Icebound Coffin falling from the sky. He calmly took a step forward and eerily disappeared into the shadow of the Icebound Coffin.
“I got him!” Mu Tingying exclaimed.
“He was not in there,” Nanrong Ni said grimly. Her eyes were scanning the surroundings.
She finally sensed a dark presence less than thirty meters from her. It was Mo Fan’s Dark Magic! He was trying to get closer to them with the Fleeing Shadow!
“Demon Tree Hand!” Nanrong Ni’s Plant Element was slightly weaker due to the effects of the Lightning Domain, but she still quickly drew the Plant Constellation. A green glow started to blink rapidly around her.
The Demon Tree Hand sprang out from the ground without a sign. Nanrong Ni locked onto the spot Mo Fan was likely to be at and flung a few Demon Tree Hands at it.
A black shadow immediately appeared. The Demon Tree Hands surrounded the shadow simultaneously and combined into an enormous Demon Tree Plant, devouring the black shadow with a single bite.
Before Nanrong Ni could feel any joy from capturing Mo Fan, a thunderclap suddenly exploded in front of them.
Lightning arcs, black and dense, appeared out of nowhere. The dancing voltage vaguely silhouetted a pair of pitch-black eyes first appearing in the air, just a few meters away from Nanrong Ni and Mu Tingying. They could even see the imperishable wrath in his eyes!
Nanrong Ni and Mu Tingying’s faces paled. They never thought Mo Fan’s Shadow Element was so outstanding that he would be able to get so close without them knowing.
Most Mages were fairly weak when it came to close combat, but Mo Fan was extremely good at it, due to how adept he was with his magic. The two girls knew they were in great trouble when they saw Mo Fan less than two meters away!
They quickly summoned their magic armor, as it was their last hope of stopping his overwhelming power!
Mo Fan was incredibly fast due to the Dark n.o.ble Mantle. He was moving like a phantom encapsulated by lightning as he arrived before the two women in their magic armor. He was only half a meter away!
“Lightning!” Mo Fan lifted his gaze. The Domain of black lightning suddenly had a huge, yellow lightning scar surge across it. These lightning scars immediately descended rapidly once they were summoned by their tyrannical master, Mo Fan!
The densely-packed lightning surged across the area rapidly. It felt like the lightning was a yellow dragon, bringing utter destruction upon the place.
The lightning strikes did not just land on Mu Tingying and Nanrong Ni. They were also landing on Mo Fan, but every time they did, the black lightning dancing over him would glitter, as if it was acc.u.mulating energy from the strikes!
Wild lightning danced, and the two women used all they had to barely survive against the lightning strikes. However, Mo Fan was not done so easily. He slowly raised his hand to gather the black lightning and the Lightning Tyrant Scars he had absorbed into his palm, before slamming it hard onto the ground!
The lightning strikes landed on the ground and discharged as a terrifying lightning storm, covering half of the training ground with Mo Fan at the center.
Mu Tingying and Nanrong Ni were only a few meters away from Mo Fan. The lightning storm immediately knocked them into the air, their bodies whipped continuously by the Lightning Tyrant!
Their armor broke into pieces. They tried desperately to cast defensive spells, yet the pain as each lightning strike whipped them was excruciating!
“Fire Phoenix!”
Mo Fan switched between the Lightning and Fire Elements fluidly. He had no intention of showing the two girls any mercy. He continued to cast his powerful Fire Spells, even when he knew they were defenseless.
A fiery phoenix sprang forward. Mu Tingying and Nanrong Ni were trying to stabilize themselves from the aftershock of the lightning storm when the deadly fiery phoenix came down and devoured them!
The four of them had stood no chance against the Lightning Tyrant. Their defenses were too weak against the Soul-grade Lightning Seed that had amplified Mo Fan’s Lightning spells threefold. The fiery phoenix continued to bombard them with a series of explosions. There was no chance that Mu Tingying and Nanrong Ni could still fight after going through all that.
As Mo Fan thought, the two girls were burned beyond recognition when they landed on the ground. They no longer had their proud, elegant demeanors. Their magic armor was broken, their clothes were ragged, even their tender skin had festered from all the burns or was scorched black from the lightning… they looked utterly miserable!
Inside the area dominated by the Lightning Tyrant, more Thunderbolts came down from the sky and transformed into lightning arcs after landing on the ground. They continued to surge toward Mo Fan.
Mo Fan clenched his hands into claws. The lightning arcs immediately gathered around him. The long, wild lightning arcs were like the dangerous nails of a demon…
“Mo Fan, you aren’t serious about killing them, are you!?” Zhao Manyan screamed.
The others were shocked when they saw Mo Fan still acc.u.mulating power. Everyone was astounded by how powerful Mo Fan’s Lightning Magic was. He had defeated four members on the team so easily! They could not help but wonder how he normally practiced!
Initially, they thought Mo Fan was done, since both Mu Tingying and Nanrong Ni were already injured, defenseless, and no longer fit for battle. If Mo Fan cast a single spell with the Lightning Tyrant now, it would surely tear the two girls to pieces!
However, the lightning claws were still gathering power, as if he was not going to stop attacking at all.
The others could no longer bear to stand and watch. They did not do anything when Mo Fan killed Lu Yilin, as the man was trying to kill Mo Fan first. It was still acceptable for Mo Fan to toss the man back into the canyon. However, if Mo Fan ended up killing the two girls here, he would surely be punished by the Enforcement Union, and there was even a chance that he would be taken away by the Mu Clan and the Nanrong Clan before the Enforcement Union could act!
The faces of Nanrong Ni and Mu Tingying contorted in fear when they saw the lightning around Mo Fan showed no signs of dissipating.
Nanrong Ni always thought Mo Fan was only going to vent his anger at most, instead of actually harming them. However, when she was injured, and saw how Mo Fan totally disregarded the others’ advice, she was finally terrified.
This maniac was serious about killing them for Mu Ningxue’s sake!
“Mo Fan, calm the f**k down, you cannot kill them!” Zhao Manyan stepped forward.
Zhao Manyan had to stop Mo Fan. What happened to Lu Yilin was totally different than the current situation. If Mo Fan insisted on killing the two girls, no one could possibly save him. He would even ruin his own future!
“Don’t worry, I can control myself!” Mo Fan replied.
“Control my a.s.s, that’s enough now, you can’t possibly be thinking of crippling them now? The two clans are going to take you down with all they have. Listen to me, just leave it as it is now. We’ll make them pay slowly!” Zhao Manyan said.
Mo Fan was clearly not controlling himself. Mu Tingying and Nanrong Ni were like dogs covered in bruises and injuries, lying on the ground. Even if they were treated in time, they would still be in pain for quite some time considering how severe their injuries were. What Mo Fan did was already the limit. Any more, and their lives would be in danger!
“Mo Fan, that’s enough; take it back now!” A middle-aged man walked out from the other end of the training ground.
The man was with another person. Mo Fan turned around and realized the other was Mu Ningxue, who had been missing for some days.
Mu Ningxue was wearing a long, icy robe. Her appearance was slightly concealed by the hood, highlighting a perfect, glamorous temperament that was able to steal a person’s soul instantly. However, her icy aura was completely emotionless and unapproachable!
The man that had spoken was Advisor Feng Li. Mu Ningxue had followed him when she realized what was happening.
She first glanced at Mo Fan, before looking at Mu Tingying and Nanrong Ni, who were severely injured.
“These two b**ches, I’ll cripple them on your behalf!” Mo Fan was relieved when he saw that Mu Ningxue was fine.
Nanrong Ni and Mu Tingying looked at the icy and proud Mu Ningxue. They could only clench their teeth when they thought of their current, miserable appearances!
“Do you think I have forgiven them?” Mu Ningxue lifted her gaze and asked in return.
“Let me handle the rough work.”
Mu Ningxue rejected him coldly, “If this is what I wanted, I could have done it easily on the bridge.”
Saying that, Mu Ningxue turned around and went back to Advisor Feng Li.
When Mu Ningxue turned around, Mo Fan caught a glimpse of wild ambition in her icy gaze. It made Mu Ningxue look even sterner and more imperious, like an empress!
