1318 The Battle on Gulangyu Translated by XephiZ Edited by Aelryinth Shao Yu glanced at Li Hongmei coldly and said, “I, Shao Yu, will be sure to remember your dirty move today. Dali Clan... humph, just a bunch of lackeys!” The people of the Dali Clan were displeased by the words. They disliked it when people humiliated them by calling them lackeys. After all, it was true that they had always worked for the Mu Clan and followed their orders blindly! Shao Yu returned to Mu Ningxue’s side. She shook her head when Mu Ningxue asked if she was hurt. “I finally understand why you have chosen to leave the clan and establish your own. It’s a disgrace to your talents to leave the world in the hands of these pricks!” “I’m sorry that you’re involved in this,” Mu Ningxue said. “Don’t worry about me, I’m actually looking forward to joining you now!” Shao Yu declared. Mu Ningxue asked someone to bring Shao Yu to rest. It was meaningless for them to stay any further at the meeting that was held to insult them. The rest of the people burst out laughing when Mu Ningxue and her people left. When the people of Fanxue Mountain left, Nanrong Xi of the Nanrong Clan was the first to speak. He looked at Lin Ze who was in charge of the meeting and said, “Elder, you’ve been a great help to us.” “A little clan like them doesn’t really bother me. I believe they won’t be attending the rest of the meeting for the next few days,” Lin Ze said. “We are all reputable renowned clans. Isn’t it a little inappropriate to be picking on a clan that was only established recently?” Bai Liu’an of the Bai Clan said. “What’s the problem? Is the Bai Clan trying to speak on their behalf?” “Forget it, it’s only... sigh, forget it,” Bai Liu’an shook his head helplessly. Li Ling glared at Shao Yu as she left. She clenched her fists in frustration and said, “Damn it, that won’t be the end of it!” —— The group from Fanxue Mountain was staying on Gulangyu. There were a few more meetings still, but Mu Ningxue was wondering if there was any reason for them to stay after what happened today. But to leave just like this? To surrender their rights so easily? Mu Ningxue was not willing to give up. If they left, they would be doing exactly what those pricks wanted! Mu Ningxue followed the path along the edge of the island. She looked at the blossoming flowers swaying in the wind, and at the waves rolling on the ocean. She was able to calm her thoughts... It was indeed a terrible meeting. Fanxue Mountain was facing a lot of difficulties in almost every area. She could easily tell that the people of the Mu Clan were pulling the strings behind the scenes. That being said, Gulangyu was indeed a unique place, suitable for a retreat from the turmoil of the world. Separated by the sea, the modernity and impetuosity of the skyscrapers on the other side served as a great contrast to the lovely island covered in flowers, as if spring was the only season here. It did not feel too lonely, yet it could set one free from the worries of living in the city. Mu Ningxue sat down on a boulder by the sea. Her hair was drifting in the wind. She recalled the events that took place on the bridge in Venice. The things that happened today were nothing compared to the despair she felt back then. She was prepared to face all the challenges the day she decided to take this path. “You’re enjoying yourself, aren’t you? You are now a strong Advanced Mage, and you even managed to establish your own clan, but don’t you forget that you were just a nobody ten years ago!” an eerie voice said. Mu Ningxue did not even need to turn around to know who the person was. The man was seriously like a ghost haunting her. Mu Ningxue ignored him. If he tried to start a fight here, she would make him pay too! “Hand over the pieces of the Ice Crystal Bow. Otherwise, you won’t be able to leave here in one piece!” Pan Xi snapped, his face contorted in anger. He was wearing a black robe, the outfit of a Disciplinary Mage. How could Pan Xi not be angry? He was an authority of the Mu Clan, responsible for choosing suitable vessels to inherit the Ice Crystal Bow. If someone managed to gain full control of the Ice Crystal Bow, the whole Mu Clan would have to submit to him! The country would not dare to provoke them, and they would even gain a certain standing in the world. Pan Xi never thought the Mu Ningxue he had brought up would take away the thing he treated as his precious. She had even established her own clan! Would the Mu Clan let Mu Ningxue get away with the Ice Crystal Bow, when she was surely going to use it against them in return? Pan Xi had been demoted by the head of the clan to a Disciplinary Mage, unless he was able to retrieve the Ice Crystal Bow! “If you dare draw half a Star, I will make you vanish from this world,” Mu Ningxue replied coldly. She had reached the third-tier of the Advanced Level. She would no longer overdraw her energy if she used the Ice Crystal Bow. She could utilize the full strength of the Ice Crystal Bow without damaging her soul. Mu Ningxue would not mind sending Pan Xi to his death if he dared to make a move, especially if he was trying to harm the people around her. Pan Xi had turned from the person pulling the strings behind the scene to a maniac who would do anything just to take the Ice Crystal Bow back! “You should know that I’m well prepared if I dare to show up. You won’t be able to use the Ice Crystal Bow this time!” Pan Xi chuckled. “Mu Ningxue, why can’t you just give up and live peacefully like a cripple? There are many people who aren’t Mages, yet you have to act like you can’t live if you aren’t a Mage!” Nanrong Xi slowly walked up to them. She could feel a strong hatred burning inside her every time she looked at Mu Ningxue! She did not believe that they were unable to take Mu Ningxue out this time! “Pan Xi, I’m willing to help, as long as the mine of Exquisite Brown Rocks on Beihuang Mountain...” Nanrong Xi said with a smile. “Help me to get the pieces of the Ice Crystal Bow back, and anything is possible!” “I’ve long found her an eyesore too. The Mu Clan has granted her a noble status and as many resources as she needed, yet she turned her back on the Mu Clan after earning a spot on the national team. Even a dog is more grateful than her,” Li Hongmei walked out from the trees behind. Her face was filled with disgust and disdain toward Mu Ningxue. Mu Ningxue looked at them. She was not too surprised to find herself in the current situation. She calmly stood up. Her Ice Magic began to spread from the boulder she was standing on. The water droplets splashing in the air turned into ice crystals and fell onto the sea that had frozen just a second ago, producing crisp clinks... The ice continued to spread. The breaker on the sand, the waves pushing the ones in front, and the tide in the distance all came to a stop. The pebbles on the path, the blossoming flowers, and the trees were soon covered in a layer of frost! “Don’t underestimate her! It’s her Innate Talent, Nirvana Ice Domain! Her Ice Magic will grow stronger the longer the fight goes on. We should end it as quickly as possible,” Nanrong Ni, who was extremely familiar with Mu Ningxue’s capabilities, reminded the others. Mu Ningxue’s Domain was domineering. Nanrong Xi, Li Hongmei, and Pan Xi were all Advanced Mages with Domains, yet their Domains were greatly suppressed by Mu Ningxue’s Nirvana Ice Domain! Pan Xi was enraged when he saw Mu Ningxue’s dominating aura. Mu Ningxue’s strength had improved significantly. She was a lot stronger than she was at Venice, and the only way she could improve so much in such a short time was through the pieces of Ice Crystal Bow! Each piece that she awakened would grant her the energy provided by the souls of those who used to bear the crystals. Pan Xi had prepared so many bearers and brutally turned them into cripples just so he could reap the rewards one day, yet it ended up benefiting Mu Ningxue instead! “Humph, an ungrateful b**ch like her thinks she stands a chance because of her Innate Talent?” Li Hongmei was not treating Mu Ningxue seriously. A representative of the national team? Each of them was an authority of the renowned clan they were representing. There was no way a fresh graduate could pose any threat to them! Li Hongmei even thought it was excessive for Pan Xi to ask her and Nanrong Xi for help! “It would be easier to take her down if Dongfang Zhu was here. Too bad the guy wasn’t willing to help.” “Enough talk, let’s take her down!” “By the way, it’s against the rules to be fighting here. The Donghai Magic Association won’t turn a blind eye to it. Li Hongmei, are you sure you’ve made the necessary arrangements?” “Don’t worry, Lin Ze is one of us!” The group of three immediately unleashed their Domains to resist Mu Ningxue’s Nirvana Ice Domain. Li Hongmei had the Flying Rock Domain. As she gathered her focus, the reefs scattered alongside the beach began to tremble. With a grunt from her, the reefs broke into pieces and floated in the air. The rocks were able to take any form under Li Hongmei’s control. Her control of the Earth Element had obviously surpassed the restrictions of the Star Orbits, Star Patterns, and Star Constellations. She was able to control the Earth Magic as she pleased! Only the most experienced Advanced Mages could achieve such an astounding feat, and there was an important prerequisite to achieving it: the person must have a Domain! A Domain was able to condense its Element. Only then will a Mage be able to show their control of the Element! The rocks combined into a giant serpent in the air. It flung its tail forward with great might. Its power had already surpassed that of the Advanced Spell, Eyes of the Rock Demon! “You’ve only briefly touched upon the ultimate of magic. It’s time to show you what real magic is!” Li Hongmei said disdainfully. The rock serpent’s tail contained such force that the whole beach was quivering. BANG! With a huge blast, a great fissure split the frozen ground and continued to spread across the frozen sea. The layers of ice began to crack rapidly... Mu Ningxue rode a gust of wind and dodged the rock serpent’s tail. She landed steadily on an ice floe, like an agile crane!
