Chapter 1322 Getting Even

Translated by XephiZ

Edited by Aelryinth

The area was devoured by complete darkness when the man flung out his coat. Elder Lin Ze took a huge punch to the side of his face before he could even understand what was happening!

The force of the punch was right on point. It was just enough to knock some teeth loose from the old man without inflicting serious injuries on him. Two of Elder Lin Ze’s teeth flew out of his mouth!

Lin Ze was utterly infuriated. His aura skyrocketed, but his magic was weakened by at least thirty percent inside the darkness unleashed by Bola’s unique mantle. He was struggling to locate Bola in the darkness. He kept firing his spells recklessly in all directions, yet was only exposing his own location.

Bola was taking his time. He was like a patient hunter observing some prey that was behaving wildly inside his trap after losing its sight. He would strike when the prey was finally worn out.

The vampire kicked Elder Lin Ze right in the face with his exquisite red shoes.

The kick broke Elder Lin Ze’s nose and knocked three more teeth out. His nose and mouth were covered in blood.

Bola’s style was perfect against an opponent like Lin Ze, who was a destructive Mage. His outstanding offensive abilities were completely useless against Bola in the darkness. Instead, he was being played like a fiddle!

Bola continued to knock out Elder Lin Ze’s teeth. The old man felt greatly humiliated. He now had the urge to take Bola down with him!

Bola was not in a rush. His master had instructed him to break the old man’s leg, too. He was waiting for the man to break down mentally so he could strike at the perfect time and break his leg!

The old man had the typical look of a lackey who only knew to fawn upon the renowned clans. He had clearly abused his powers to pick on people. It definitely served him right!

——

The people of the renowned clans and the Magic Association began to panic when they saw Bola beating the crap out of Elder Lin Ze.

No one dared to intervene when an Elder of the Donghai Magic Association was being badly beaten up. Were they going to keep beating him until he was dead?

“Mo Fan, forget it,” Mu Ningxue said.

It was unnecessary to complicate the situation any further. Pan Xi deserved to die, but if they ended up killing an Elder of the Magic Association too, even a Councilman would not be able to speak on Mo Fan’s behalf.

Elder Lin Ze completely lost his imposing demeanor after the beating. Bola dragged the old man over to Mo Fan like a badly beaten dog.

The rest of the renowned clans that were neutral were relieved that they did not listen to the enticement from Pan Xi and the representatives of the Nanrong and Dali Clans to team up against Mu Ningxue. Otherwise, they would have ended up in a similar spot too.

Wasn’t the person beside Mo Fan a little too strong to be real? It did not take him much effort to beat a Super Mage up!

“Why aren’t you talking now? Hurry up and accuse me of something. Weren’t you acting high and mighty before just because you are an Elder?” Mo Fan grinned like a devil. Anyone that offended him must bear the consequences!

The other renowned clans finally witnessed how arrogant Mo Fan was, daring to beat up anyone that he was displeased with… but he did have the strength to do so!

“Ugh… are you Mo Fan of the national team?” A middle-aged man whose long hair was tied up in a bun had shown up. He was wearing the same outfit as Lin Ze, with brightly colored magic patterns.

“Who is it this time? Are you trying to help this old jerk? I don’t mind beating you up too!” Mo Fan snarled mercilessly.

“Young man, you should really control your temper. You’ve killed someone, after all. Even if you had a valid reason to do so, you still have to explain the situation to us and let us hear from the victim. We’ll leave it in the hands of the Enforcement Union. If you keep doing it your way, it’s only going to make things worse,” the middle-aged man said.

“You’re right, but they were the ones that attacked first! I was only trying to defend myself,” Mo Fan replied.

“Then you should let Lin Ze go so he can get treated. I’ll make sure justice is served here,” the middle-aged man declared.

“Someone who’s in charge finally showed up! I thought this idiot was in charge of the Donghai Magic Association, since he could do whatever he wanted and accuse whoever he pleased. He’s acting so shamelessly despite his age, I had no choice but to beat some sense into him! I’m a role model for the younger generation of our country. Do you seriously think I like hurting people and settling disputes with violence? These people forced me to do it!” Mo Fan exclaimed.

Elder Kang was left speechless after hearing Mo Fan’s explanation.

Even though Li Hongmei, Nanrong Xi, and Pan Xi were the ones to attack first, Mo Fan did kill Pan Xi and injure Li Hongmei and Nanrong Xi. Even Elder Lin Ze was beaten beyond recognition for siding with them…

He had heard of the special character that the strongest participant in the World College Tournament possessed. It turned out that the rumors were true. His violent temper of insisting on getting even with people harboring malicious intentions toward him was even more shocking than the rumors had mentioned!

Elder Kang quickly went over and helped Lin Ze stand properly after Mo Fan let him go.

“Great Elder Kang, you can’t let him go so easily. All men are equal in the eyes of the law. Even if he won the World College Tournament, he had just committed murder! We must punish him for it! Otherwise, no one is going to treat our Magic Association seriously. The people are going to look down at us!” Elder Lin Ze was badly beaten, yet it did not mean he had gotten over it.

Mo Fan regretted not asking Bola to break Lin Ze’s ‘third leg’ too after hearing the accusation!

“I’ve already learned what happened from someone else. He clearly stated that it was Pan Xi who was trying to kill Mi Ningxue with his Curse Magic first… Elder Lin, aren’t you being stubborn and arrogant to simply accuse him of murder without investigating the matter first? Besides, as the Disciplinary Elder of Gulangyu, why did it take you so long to intervene with the battle? I’m utterly disappointed by your failure to fulfill your obligations!” Elder Kang said.

Mo Fan nodded after hearing Elder Kang’s scolding. It turned out that not everyone in a higher-level Magic Association was a fool like Lin Ze. There were still people that were reasonable and righteous.

Mo Fan was not someone who would kill indiscriminately. He was willing to spare Pan Xi’s life if he had not used his Curse Element!

The Curse Element had always been a malicious Element. It had been forbidden by the Magic Association for a long time until they found a way to control the damage it caused. It was eventually accepted by the Magic Association.

However, there was one condition when using the Curse Element; its wielders were not allowed to use life-threatening Curse Spells on someone else!

There were a few different kinds of Curse Spells. One was normally used to torture the target, and the other was used to endanger the target’s life, based on the Mage’s control of the Curse Element. It was very easy to identify a life-threatening Curse Spell. Any spell that emitted a crimson-red light was a life-threatening Curse Spell. It was able to kill a person by draining the energy of their soul dry!

Pan Xi was using a life-threatening Curse Spell. He was trying to take away her soul, instead of inflicting permanent damage. It would turn her into an empty shell, like Wang Xiaojun. A cruel spell like that was completely forbidden by the Magic Association!

Many people had seen Pan Xi using the deadly Curse Spell, so Mo Fan was not worried that there were no witnesses to back him up. Since the man had crossed the line first, Mo Fan’s actions were considered self-defense.

Mo Fan was not worried about being accused of excessive self-defense. He had earned so much glory for the country by winning the World College Tournament. If he did not even have the right to kill someone who was using a forbidden spell, what was the point of him contributing so much to the country?

It was not Mo Fan’s first day stirring up troubles. He had caused a great scene at the Magic Association at the Beiyu Mountain, yet nothing had happened to him. As such, there was no reason for him to be worried about something insignificant like this.

He was not disregarding the law for no reason, but he could not care less about the law when someone was trying to bully him. He would only let it go after beating the crap out of the person!

—

“So he’s Mo Fan, the one they referred to as the strongest participant in the World College Tournament!”

“No wonder he’s so impressive. I’m the same age as him, but I haven’t even reached the Intermediate Level.”

“What kind of ability was he using to engulf himself in flames? Not only was it cool to look at, it was ridiculously strong, too! Didn’t you see how he beat the crap out of the representatives of the renowned clans?”

The spectators on the cruise ships were discussing among themselves.

—

Things were soon sorted out after Elder Kang took charge of the situation.

Elder Lin Ze was clearly abusing his powers to side with some of the renowned clans and pick on Fanxue Mountain. When Mu Ningxue told Elder Kang everything that had happened, he immediately interrogated Nanrong Xi and Li Hongmei.

Nanrong Xi and Li Hongmei denied it at first, but since Mu Ningxue was able to drag out the battle for so long, too many people had witnessed what had happened. Not every member of the Donghai Magic Association on Gulangyu had colluded with Elder Lin, either. Some of them gave their testimonies and brought up the footage of the surveillance cameras nearby to prove that Nanrong Xi and Li Hongmei had attacked Mu Ningxue first!

“I’m afraid you will have to leave Gulangyu with the members of your clan. You are no longer welcomed by the Donghai Magic Association.” Elder Kang’s gaze turned cold as soon as he heard the testimonies and saw the footage.

Nanrong Xi and Li Hongmei were stunned. They were only trying to teach the young girl a punishment, yet the Donghai Magic Association was asking them to leave as a punishment!

“What about the meetings…” Li Hongmei said.

“From now onward, the Donghai Magic Association will no longer work with your clans. Respect goes both ways. You’ve failed to treat the rules of the Donghai Magic Association seriously, thus the Donghai Magic Association will not treat you with respect, either. We will reclaim the ore veins, mineral veins, and crystal veins that we are sharing with your clans. We’ll be working with some other clans instead!” Elder Kang declared.
