Chapter 1456 Let Them In

Translated by XephiZ

“Damn it, they managed to get away!” Mu Xumian stomped the ground angrily and vented her frustrations on the Shadow Mage. She waved her hand, summoning a gust of wind from nowhere to toss the Shadow Mage into the air.

The Shadow Mage slammed heavily onto the ground and broke his front teeth. When he fell right beside Mu Xumian’s heels, she even stomped on the back of his hand.

“How stupid are you? How did you even let the girl run away!?” Mu Xumian swore.

The Shadow Mage did not dare retort. He kept mumbling under his breath, begging for mercy.

“It’s not going to make any difference hiding in there. We have the place under control. Do they think they can just fly away?” Tong Li smiled.

“The curtain of White Lava is a little strange. It’s not going to be easy getting into it,” Qi Shan said uneasily.

Qi Shan sincerely hoped that everyone in the underworld cave would end up dead. He could not afford to let the outside world know what had happened here. He wanted to get his revenge on the Mui Clan and Mui Nuxin, but he did not want the world to know he was an unforgivable jerk and traitor!

“You, go test it out!” Mu Xumian ordered, pointing at the Shadow Mage on the ground. She was as cold-blooded as a demoness when she fell out with someone.

“Right away!” The Shadow Mage clearly had no clue about how dangerous the White Lava was. He naively thought it was a great chance to redeem himself. He immediately rose to his feet and headed toward the White Lava.

He hesitated for a moment to observe the White Lava. However, after hearing Mu Xumian’s cold harrumph, he immediately prepared his defenses to resist the White Lava.

The White Lava lunged at him in an instant. The Shadow Mage had yet to even touch it; he was only probing it with his magic, but that alone had been enough to provoke the White Lava!

The lava was strong enough to burn a Ruler-level creature into ashes; there was no way a normal Shadow Mage could withstand its heat. The White Lava spread across his body angrily and burned whatever it touched to ashes. The Shadow Mage stared at his arm in disbelief, watching the White Lava spreading towards his head and body.

“AHHHH! Help me!” The Shadow Mage’s last words echoed in the cave, chilling the others!

It was not like the others refused to lend him a hand, but they did not even have a chance to react. The White Lava was just too quick at burning the guy to ashes!

“This…this…” Tong Li stammered. His ugly face was terrified.

“I already told you, this White Lava is very terrifying!” Qi Shan exclaimed anxiously. He did not understand why Mu Xumian did not want to listen to him.

“Seeing is believing. Now we know that we can’t afford to touch it, so how did that kid go inside?” Mu Xumian replied, unmoved.

“You weren’t listening to me at all, weren’t you? I already told you that we must subdue Mo Fan! He’s the key to the operation. He’s the only one that can go inside the White Lava!” Qi Shan yelled.

“Oh, so that’s what you meant,” Mu Xumian finally realized. “Things are a lot more complicated if that;s the case. But it’s fine; it’s not like they can just hide inside without eating or drinking. We’ll just guard the exit. They are going to surrender eventually, no matter what they have up their sleeves. Besides, I don’t believe that’s the only way to enter the White Lava,” she continued.

“We can force them to come out here. We’ll tell them that we’ll kill a person every minute starting now,” Tong Li suggested, glancing at Mui Guangqing, Dongfang Xifeng, Mui Zhuocheng, and the others tied up by the ice chain.

“They wouldn’t have run away in the first place if holding these people as hostages was going to work. That Mo Fan is very cunning; he’s obviously not the kind that will come out here to get himself killed,” Mu Xumian judged shrewdly.

“We’ll wait here and think of a plan then,” Qi Shan said.

Mu Xumian was absolutely right. Even if she threatened Mo Fan with the lives of Mui Guangqing and the others, he would not come out.

Ever since Qi Shan had betrayed them, their lives were already in Mu Xumian’s hands. Saving their lives was an act of grace; not saving their lives was perfectly reasonable. There was no way Mo Fan would just go out there and die like an idiot.

“What happened? Why are you all here?” Lingling was utterly confused when she saw the four panting heavily.

Lingling was intrigued by the world inside the lava curtain. When Mui Guangqing and the others went to destroy the Sarkinite node, Mo Fan had brought her in here. The little girl was fearless; she definitely enjoyed her time inspecting the things inside the curtain of White Lava. Mo Fan had to meditate to recover his energy, and since the other Elements were lacking in here, he had not stayed inside with Lingling.

Lingling did not go too far, remaining in the area that Mo Fan had confirmed to be safe for her. She was so focused that she had no idea what was going on outside.

“That son of a b**ch Qi Shan has become the Mu Clan’s pet dog. We are done for. F**k, we finally found a way to leave this place, but it still came down to this,” Zhao Manyan grumbled.

“What should we do now? We don’t have a Scroll of Space with us. If they keep waiting outside, we can’t just stay here without food and water,” Mu Bai said.

“Seriously? I had no idea he was such a disgusting person,” Lingling said.

“Lingling, did you find anything in here? You’re our only hope of getting out of here.” Zhao Manyan was well aware of Lingling’s otherworldly intelligence. He subconsciously placed all his hope on her.

“I did learn something useful; we won’t die of starvation here, but we can only last for three days at most,” Lingling said.

“Why is that?” Mo Fan asked with a confused look.

“We will die of thirst,” Lingling said.

“…” the other four were left speechless.

They would not starve to death, but die of thirst… it meant that even if there was something to fill their stomachs with here, they still had no supply of water!

The only Element here was Fire. If a place had no particles of a certain Element, it was impossible to cast a spell related to it. In other words, Zhao Manyan’s Water Element was basically disabled. He could not produce water to satisfy their thirst!

“Lingling, any constructive suggestions instead?” Mo Fan asked helplessly.

“Aren’t you stupid? Did you forget how you beat Shi Qianshou?” Lingling said.

“That’s different; the demon locusts were there, Shi Qianshou could only use his Poison Element, but I was able to use my Ardent Sunset… oh, I got it!” Mo Fan immediately realized something. He went forward and picked up Lingling in his arms to give her a huge kiss on the face.

“Enough with the public display of affection, tell us what it is now!” Zhao Manyan was clearly panicking. He was struggling to think of a way to deal with the Super Maga outside.

“We’re going to let them in!” Mo Fan smiled.

“Are you daydreaming now!?” Zhao Manyan yelled.
