Chapter 2621: Crossing the River
Edited by Aelryinth
“Where did this monster come from? How dare she try to hurt our Councilman? I shall kill her now!” A Mage wearing Ice Armor stepped forward and engaged the vengeful Undead woman.
spiraling tornadoes made up of hard pieces of ice circled around the Ice Mage. When he sent the tornadoes after the revenge-seeking Undead, she floated to the other side perpendicular to the Ice Mage.
Her movements were unpredictable. It felt like the revenant was being reborn again on a different spot after she was shattered to pieces by the tornadoes.
Her eyes had a vicious look to them, Green flames erupted deep inside them.
The loyal Ice Mage’s mind was influenced. His eyes tuned green as blue veins surfaced on his face, which was now brimming with pain, hatred, and anger!
The Ice Mage eventually wilted like a plant as his skin darkened and dried up.
‘The rest of the Mages on the altar fell into a panic.
‘They had no idea what magic Ding Yumian was using. The Ice Mage was one of the strongest officials in the Dongfang Oriental Tower, but he was as weak as a child to Ding Yumian. He had died so quickly!
“My patience is running out. However, I do hope he will do it himself by stabbing himself with this dagger!” Ding Yumian slowly lifted her shirt and pulled a red dagger out from her heart.
Many people felt their scalps turning numb when they saw the dagger.
‘The dagger floated to the altar under Ding Yumian’s control and hovered in front of Councilman Zhuang Yue.
Councilman Zhuang Yue pointed at Ding Yumian and cursed angrily, accusing her of being a hypocrite. “People treat you as their savior, but you have come to get your revenge! Have I slandered you after you died? I complimented your sacrificial act in front of the whole nation! Many schools are
worshiping you like their mother goddess! I did not mention a single word about you trying to run away because you were afraid! I made you a hero! You should be thankful to me instead! Otherwise, everyone is only going to treat you like a disaster and avoid you in fear. No one will remember you after
you died of old age in this city!” Zhuang Yue shricked at her.
‘The red dagger covered in Ding Yumian’s burning blood was still hanging in front of Zhuang Yue.
He glanced around himself while he was cursing.
He soon realized something was not right. Not only were the people whom Ding Yumian had seduced demanding his death, even the Mages of the Magic Association were unintentionally pushing the dagger toward him!
“How could you believe her? How could you believe her nonsense!” Zhuang Yue yelled frantically when he realized no one was on his side.
The danger was already on the doorstep. They just had to sacrifice a single Councilman to drive the Undead back!
Besides, Zhuang Yue had forced Ding Yumian to kill herself first. The people could just assume it was a personal conflict between them. They should just resolve the conflict without involving others!
“Tm losing patience. Cross the river!” Ding Yumian pointed to the other side of the waters.
‘The tide of Undead broke through the silver curtains and instantly filled up the river before ramming into the wall of humans along the river.
The Fire Mages set the whole river on fire, like a burning canyon. Many of the Undead were burned to ashes.
However, the Undead could not feel pain nor feared death, and they continued to sprint across the river. They could still reach the other side of the river and the streets there before their bodies were burned into ashes.
“Do you have any idea how many Undead there are at the bottom of the sea? The warm seabed is nurturing their shells while the deep sea is away from sunlight… My army is unlimited!” Ding Yumian laughed at them.
‘Mo Fan was standing a hundred meters away from Ding Yumian in the air. He was looking for a chance to kill Ding Yumian in the shortest time possible.
“Dragon Sense!”
He was able to observe everything around him. He fixed his eyes on Ding Yumian, trying to find her weakness.
The colorful coral dress was most likely granted to her by the Sea Monster Prophets. Ding Yumian must have merged with a powerful Sea Monster Prophet after she killed herself, which gave her access to the Psychic Element, Undead Element, and the Sea Monster Prophet’s ability to command the sea
monsters.
How much power would he need to guarantee he could destroy her in an instant?
Her mental strength was overwhelming. She would immediately sense him before he could make his move, let alone kill her.
“Apas, can your mental strength match hers?” Mo Fan asked.
“It’s tricky. She’s stronger than the Queen of the Netherworld right now,” Apas replied cautiously.
Mo Fan withdrew his Dragon Sense. He realized it was impossible to take Ding Yumian down with a surprise attack. The red dagger was his only option.
‘The red dagger was suddenly wrapped in a silver light. The floating dagger suddenly thrust forward and drive itself through Councilman Zhuang Yue’s chest!
Crimson blood sprayed in the air. The dagger was so quick that Zhuang Yue did not have time to react.
Zhuang Yue was a Top Seater. He was obviously on his guard and was ready to fight Ding Yumian, but he did not expect the dagger to turn into a deadly weapon!
Ding Yumian was also startled by the sudden turn of events. She obviously had not controlled the dagger. She immediately turned to Mo Fan.
Mo Fan was the only one nearby. He was also a Space Mage.
She did sense a strong mental energy from Mo Fan. It was very likely he was the one who had controlled the dagger!
He had helped Councilman Zhuang Yue make the wisest decision. After all, even if he was not willing to end his own life, Ding Yumian would do everything to kill him. She had prepared the army of Undead just to kill him!
Zhuang Yue’s eyes widened. He also assumed Mo Fan was the culprit.
However, another figure quickly appeared behind Mo Fan..
