After Mo Qing left, Mo Fan also got up and started to get ready. His t-shirt was all messed up so he just wore his Uncle’s shirt and jeans. 

After he was ready, Ye Xinxia who was in deep thoughts turned to look at him. Her beautiful pearly eyes were swollen from crying so much.

She just kept looking at him. Mo Fan felt a little embarrassed by her gaze.

“What? Does it look bad on me or something?” Mo Fan asked.

Ye Xinxia shook her head sideways, and smiled

“No... You look Cool...” She replied while being dazed.

“You want to come with me?” Mo Fan Asked again

“No, I have some stuff to do...” She replied.

“Okay then, I’m leaving. I’ll probably visit once in a week.” Mo Said after he turned towards the door.

“Do you have something going on?” This time Ye Xinxia asked.

“Not now, but in the future, I do.” Mo Fan replied Vaguely.

“Brother Mo Fan..” Ye Xinxia stopped him.

“Hmm?” Mo Fan turned towards her and asked.

“You won’t leave me all alone and go somewhere right?” she asked in a solemn voice.

Mo Fan was startled by her question. He went near her and kneeled in front of her. He gently grabbed her hand.

“I Won’t!” Mo Fan replied firmly as looked in her eyes. 

She released her hands and hugged him as she buried her head into his chest. Mo Fan soon smelled a beautiful smell emanating from her head as he felt electrocuted all over his body. He hugged her back as his hands slowly started moving below her waist.

“I can tolerate everything about you big brother” Ye Xinxia said suddenly. 

Mo Fan’s hands stopped in place as he looked at her.

“About how you’re lazy to even fold your clothes, about how you always sexually harass me even now, about how you used to pin me down on bed when we were small and sniff me. About how you always flirt with other girls, I can even tolerate cheating UP TO SOME EXTENT, I can tolerate almost everything about you since you brainwashed me ever since we were kids. I can... No I will Tolerate it, as long as you’re alive and came back to me in one piece. BUT If you suddenly died somewhere leaving me all alone in this world, I will dye my hair, say bad words, date many guys, and have an abortion. I will become a girl you hate so that you won’t be able to rest in peace.” Ye Xinxia said with an icy voice and with a hint of anger in it.

At the start Mo Fan was enjoying the hug wholeheartedly, but his expression shifted and cold sweat ran through his back as he heard his beloved Ye Xinxia’s angry voice for the very first time.

His smile stiffened, and his body tensed up and shivered as only one thought ran through his mind. 

_I absolutely cannot die no matter what!!_

......

After Mo Fan left, Ye Xinxia was all alone in the room.

“The way he was acting, he doesn’t plan on stopping (getting involved in battles that is)... He needs someone by his side who can heal his wounds.” As Ye Xinxia said this, she clenched her small hands decisively with a stern expression not belonging to a 14 year old girl as she looked out of the window.

......

Mo Fan quickly ran away after he saw Ye Xinxia’s cold smile and he arrived at school’s last day in time. He did stop by to see what had happened at the Mingwen Girls Middle School. The authorities had sealed off the area and the construction workers were clearing up the rubble. He left quickly as he didn’t saw the three people of Black Vatican from yesterday.

“Brother Fan! You know what happened. Yesterday after you left the school..” Zhang Xiaohou came up to him as soon as he saw him with a smiling and excited face.

“What? What happened?” Mo Fan asked as he wanted to know seeing his expression.

He quickly removed his phone and showed a picture of Zhao Kunsan and Mu Bai kissing each other.

“Pfftt~~~ Puahahahahahhaha!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!” Mo Fan who was drinking water from his bottle immediately threw up as he started laughing loudly.

The Class turned towards him while he was laughing, they knew what he was laughing at as Zhang Xiaohou had posted it on the school’s forum. Mu Bai felt humiliated by him and immediately glared at the Fat Zhao Kunsan who was feeling the same.

“My God, so they finally crossed that line huh!!! I always knew there was something going on between them but didn’t knew they were already on Base 2, hahahaha” Mo Fan replied merrily. 

The girls immediately blushed as they looked at Mu Bai and started whispering, while the boys were laughing their ass off and congratulating them.

“YOU!!!...” Mu Bai got up from his seat furiously and Glared at Mo Fan but just as he was about to say something he was interrupted by Zhao Kunsan who also got up. 

He glared at that idiot, as it was his fault that he slipped on him and they both fell down the staircase and he got his first kiss stolen by him. Just at that moment Zhang Xiaohou appeared and ran away after taking the photo.

He let Zhao Kunsan take care of it since he knows how to shit talk and there was no need for him to stoop down to Mo Fan’s level.

“Yesterday was just an accident and even if we kissed so what? Don’t forget that a dreg like you is no match for Mu Bai! You who can’t even control a single star much less even meditate properly is even lower than a dreg. I’m honoured to kiss Mu Bai. Even if I was told to choose who to kiss between a girl or Mu Bai, I’ll still chose Mu Bai” Said Zhao Kunsan as he looked proud.

Mu Bai was gone speechless looking at him. His jaw was agape.

“Pfft~ HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This guy admitted he likes Mu Bai!! Oh Congratulations Mu Bai, you finally have a girlfriend... Oh sorry BOYFRIEND!! HAHAHA” Mo Fan laughed loudly and the rest of the class joined him.

Mu Bai felt incredibly humiliated. He got up and left the classroom.

Zhao Kunsan didn’t knew why Mu Bai left and why this dreg was laughing so much, he only praised Mu Bai but he still got angry.

.....

Regardless of what happened, this semester was over. After the students received their winter semester assignment, each went their way home, and each went to find their mom.

Mo didn’t leave as he went to his secluded place to cultivate and cast magic. 

“LIGHTNING STRIKE: THUNDERING LASHES” Mo Fan quickly connected the Star Orbit within a second and casted the level2 spell!

A Purple Glow enveloped Mo Fan as a fierce lightning erupted from his body. He raised his hand up and the lightning followed his hand and condensed into a 5metre long whip, he grabbed the whip and lashed it unto a tree. 

BOOOMM

The lightning whip slashed against the tree and a loud sound was emitted as the tree was maliciously blasted away.

It was different from the primary Lightning Strike, Python Scars. Once the whip-like Lightning traces hit the target, it would leave behind Lightning prints. These prints would then conduct electricity to each other, sustaining the electric shock to the target, which will burn it and paralyze it at the same time! After 7 Slashes the lightning dissipated into air as the spell came to an end. The huge 5 metre tall tree was mercilessly turned into charcoal.

Mo Fan astonished by the spell’s power and effect. Even the Colossal Eyed Ape Rat which injured him so terribly would miserably die in one hit.

“If only I had this spell that time... Anyways now that I have this awesome spell, I’m not afraid of anything! There might even be more amazing spells at higher levels! I should diligently cultivate without slacking off!” Mo Fan was absolutely pleased with the new spell. He was even more excited to unlock even more spells and reach greater heights at magic.

But for him to achieve those levels was not an easy task. He understood this fact that, through Cultivating in a safe area will achieve nothing, he needs more battle experience as he was absolutely thrashed by a bottom feeder monster this time.

“I Won’t get humiliated by a monster or human ever again. I need more battle experience and for that I need to join the Hunter’s Union the only place where I will get the battle experience I want.” Mo Fan said as he swore to never lose against anyone in this world.

“But for me to always win, I’m going to need the power of my both elements to be at peak. Otherwise I’m just the same as everyone else only a little faster. It’s finally time for the little brother (Fire Element) to get stronger too.” Mo Fan said while clenching his fist. 

He never wants to hide against those scums of Black Vatican ever again. Next time he will boldly face them and destroy them.
