Chapter 2744: Living Under the Rock

“H–How did you find us here?” stammered Du Mei, as she pointed at Mo Fan. “Big Sister Ruan! Shu Xiaohua!” she exclaimed.

There was a long green bamboo road that went to the mountain villa. It snaked and twisted and led all the way up. Many men and women carrying bamboo baskets were walking along it. Some went up while others were descending. Most looked numb.

Du Mei walked with a tall and handsome man. They had been talking happily like a couple in love.

“Who is he?” The tall and handsome man frowned.

At Licheng Afterglow Island, men and women had a pretty straightforward relationship. When they encountered their lover’s rival, they beat them up without hesitation. Only the strongest had the right to stay with their significant other.

Unlike those foreign guys that ended up marrying ladies from Licheng Afterglow Island, Du Wanjun was an authentic descendant from the hidden clan. He was one of the few powerful men among the female-dominated Licheng Afterglow Island.

Men from Licheng Afterglow Island were highly sought after. They were free to choose any woman they preferred in Licheng Afterglow Island. Du Wanjun had his eyes on Du Mei. This was because he was envious. She had told him of her adventure from outside the island. She had mentioned a certain Seven-star Hunter Master whose strength was as good as Du Wanjun. Du Wanjun felt his position was threatened and put in more effort to court Du Mei. He was about to succeed when…

“He’s the Seven-star Hunter Master that I told you about. He’s really great! But…” Du Mei was confused when she saw Ruan Feiyan and Shu Xiaohua.

‘So, Ruan Feiyan and Shu Xiao did not lie to him. They really brought him here,’ thought Du Mei.

Even though this was against the rules, Du Mei felt that it was the right thing to do. If they didn’t fulfill their promise, it made her feel guilty as part of the team.

“Eh, I heard Granny say that the outsiders’ strength is only average.It’s a chance hard to come by to have a visitor in Licheng Afterglow Island. I can’t wait to spar with you. None of the young men on the island are a match for me,” said Du Wanjun proudly.

“Wanjun, he’s truly very powerful. He can summon a ruler-level beast…” Du Mei was naive. She still had not figured out what Mo Fan was doing on the island.

Du Wanjun frowned. Was Du Mei stupid? Or did she have feelings for this man from outside the island? Was she aware how insensitive it was to praise an outsider before him?!

“Then I have all the more reason to get to know you!” Du Wanjun walked up to Mo Fan.

“So, is this your cousin?” Mo Fan asked Du Mei.

“Yes, he is. He’s the strongest man in Licheng Afterglow Island,” Du Mei said.

Du Mei sensed something was strange. Ruan Feiyan looked exhausted while Shu Xiaohua looked terrified. Du Mei was alarmed as she finally understood. “You barged into our island?!”

“We should frequently venture outside to see the world. Otherwise, we will end up living under the rock. Du Mei, there are plenty of men like him out there.” Mo Fan ignored Du Mei. He continued towards Licheng Afterglow Island Mountain villa.

There was no need to be calculative with Du Mei. After all, Du Mei was not so cunning. She was the most gullible out of the group. Her expression revealed all of her thoughts.

“What do you mean? Stop!” Du Wanjun screamed at him.

Mo Fan ignored him and continued heading towards the mountain villa with Ruan Feiyan and Shu Xiaohua. Apas had applied the soul-searching technique on both. They were in a daze and walked beside Apas in a daze.

“Bastard! I said stop ! Didn’t you hear what I said?!” Du Wanjun flew into a rage.

A silver glow appeared around Du Wanjun. He coalesced mercury particles in his hand. He took a step forward and fired. Strong breeze shook the bamboo trees on both sides of the road, causing even the hardest of bamboos to bend to the ground.

Du Wanjun held a Silver Sea Water long blade. When he swung his blade, the tip of the blade arched across the sky. He slashed at Mo Fan’s back.

“Wanjun, don’t…!” Du Mei shouted.

“This proud bastard is the one who started it!” Du Wanjun said angrily.

Mo Fan turned around, and his eyes sparkled with silver light. His pupils lit up, sparkling with special divine energy, as if declaring his sovereignty over everything around him!

Du Wanjun’s Silver Sea Water long blade stopped in mid-air. It was only less than half a meter from Mo Fan’s forehead. No matter how hard Du Wanjun tried, he could not slash at Mo Fan.

“Get lost!” Mo Fan shouted furiously.

The thick bamboo smashed onto the ground. It was a terrifying sight to behold.

Du Wanjun was sent flying backward, as if a running beast had run into his chest ruthlessly. He fell from the mountain side.

There were more than ten hectares of green bamboo and mountain pines along the mountainside. Du Wanjun crashed into them as he fell.

Du Wanjun spit out blood. His chest bones were shattered. He glared at the tiny black dot with wrathful eyes. He hated Mo Fan.

“W-Wanjun!” Du Mei was so shocked that she turned very pale. She rushed down the hill.

Bam!

Suddenly, lightning struck the Licheng Afterglow Island. It was a straight bolt of lightning that hit straight on the land.

A scorched, bottomless pit appeared. The lightning happened in a flash. It was so fast that the people had not even had the time to react. But when they came to their senses and saw the dim lightning still crackling, they were filled with terror.

Bam! Bam! Bam!

Dozens of identical lightning bolts rained down. appeared. The lightning bolts were like purple heavenly swords. Each lightning was as powerful as the first. Du Wanjun stayed paralyzed at the foot of the mountain, watching each of the fatal lightning bolts brush past him. Fear overcame him.

“Wanjun! Wanjun!” Du Mei rushed to him anxiously.

The lightning had been terrifying, like God’s condemnation. Luckily, none had struck Du Wanjun.

When Du Mei drew close to Du Wanjun, she smelled something strange. She saw that Du Wanjun’s crotch was wet and straw-yellow colored urine was gushing out on his thighs and knees.
