Chapter 1637: A Greater Secre

1637 A Greater Secre Translated by XephiZ

Edited by Aelryinth

Mo Fan felt the pinch. Mu Ningxue would not behave like this if she was not overwhelmed by anger and sorrow. His heart skipped a beat!

He didn’t have a heart?

Mo Fan clearly remembered Ai Jiangtu taking the kid out of the Scarlet Soaring Demon’s belly. He had even lent a hand to bury the body, but he had never checked to see if the kid still had a heart!

“Why is that?” Mo Fan was both shocked and confused.

“The reason that the missing kid ended up in the Scarlet Soaring Demon’s belly… was that he wasn’t eaten by the Scarlet Soaring Demon, but someone was using the Scarlet Soaring Demons’ trait of eating little kids to conceal their crime of kidnapping them for their hearts!” Mu Ningxue told him.

“Wh…what!?” Mo Fan almost yelled at the top of his lungs. He was utterly dumbfounded by Mu Ningxue’s words.

The kids had already lost their hearts before they were eaten by the Scarlet Soaring Demons!?

Mo Fan’s heart shuddered. Why did something that was already so cruel have to be tied up with an even scarier truth?

“I came to Athens on my own because I didn’t want the culprit to know we are making a move,” Mu Ningxue said.

“The culprit is here in Athens?” Mo Fan asked curiously.

“Mm, we’ve tracked the children’s hearts to here!” Mu Ningxue said.

Mo Fan now realized why Mu Ningxue was having dinner in a luxurious restaurant in an evening gown. The culprit must have a strong background, so Fanxue Mountain would easily arouse suspicion with their investigation. Therefore, Mu Ningxue had pretended to come for a business trip!

“What else do you know?” Mo Fan growled.

“Jiang Yu has dug very deep into the matter, but he also warned me that the person involved is extremely dangerous. He asked me to be very careful. We aren’t sure who the culprit is, but the hearts are indeed here in Athens. Jiang Yu will be here in two days, he will explain the details to us…” Mu Ningxue said.

“Stealing children’s hearts. What are they up to?” Mo Fan could not understand the reason behind it.

“Not stealing… they are collecting!” Mu Ningxue corrected him.

From what Mu Ningxue knew, the true number of missing children was far higher than what they knew of. It was not just in Feiniao City; the same incidents were happening in other cities, even other countries…

“Collecting hearts?” Mo Fan was lost in thought after learning the terrifying, disappointing truth.

He had only found out about the despicable act of General Ethan and his subordinate Gangma in Egypt. Those pricks, driven by their greed, considered themselves honorable despite their evil acts. Their twisted personalities and hearts were even more disgusting than the demon snakes and scorpions! Apas’ accusations of humans also left Mo Fan in deep thought.

He did not expect the people of Fanxue Mountain to find out the truth about the missing children in Feiniao City after he had just left Egypt. He was once again disheartened by the truth. He could not help but despise his own kind.

How many could the demon creatures possibly eat?

Humans were ‘eating’ more than the demon creatures!

What was wrong with humans? Why did they have to devastate one another?

Gangma had kidnapped the young girls to satiate his own desires, and to expand his connections. They were feeding the young girls to the Medusae in return for temporary peace. But what kind of reason would someone have for collecting children’s hearts?

Mo Fan had assumed the Black Vatican was the definition of evil. No one could possibly be worse than the Black Vatican! The members of the Black Vatican were not even worthy to be called humans, but after the things he had been through, he suddenly felt that evil was nothing but a bottomless abyss. Whenever he thought he had seen the darkest side of humans, something worse was still happening just beyond his sight!

“I’m sorry, it was meant to be a relaxing walk, but I end up saying these things to you,” Mu Ningxue sighed when she noticed the icy aura Mo Fan was emitting.

“I’m the least of your worries. I will never forgive the people behind it!” Mo Fan swore.

He had plenty of time to flirt with Mu Ningxue, but if he did not take out the culprit, it would feel like an annoying fishbone was stuck in his throat!

Jiang Yu arrived in Athens in the afternoon the next day.

It had been a long time since Mo Fan had last seen him, and they had barely contacted one another after the national team was disbanded. It went without saying that everyone on the national team was going to have great achievements in their respective fields.

Zhao Manyan had almost recovered by now. He happily invited Jiang Yu to the reflexology center when he heard Jiang Yu had come to Athens.

Jiang Yu might have seemed like an honest man, but he was surprisingly ‘playful’ too. However, he was not in the mood, since he was here for some serious business.

“Damn it, how is that even possible!?” Zhao Manyan also had a strong reaction after hearing Jiang Yu’s message.

Zhao Manyan was around when they were looking for the missing children. Even a heartless man like him was disheartened by the truth… he had tried so hard to find the kid that had been kidnapped!

Little did Zhao Manyan know, there was a greater secret behind it!

“It’s not like I didn’t want to find out the truth, but the person behind it is too powerful. I was warned as soon as I tried to look into it,” Jiang Yu said helplessly.

“Who warned you?” Mo Fan asked.

“Not sure, but one of the elders warned me. He must have been pressured by someone else,” Jiang Yu said.

“Who exactly is it, acting so arrogantly after doing such a heartless thing!?” Zhao Manyan cursed.

There was a sudden knock on the door while they were in the middle of the discussion.

“Who is it?” Mo Fan asked patiently.

They had all gathered in Mo Fan’s room. Everyone that was supposed to be here was inside the room, including Brianca and Heidi. They were also enraged after hearing the truth, and swore to hunt the culprit down.

“Room service, sir, didn’t you ask me to come service you?” an alluring voice said outside the door. It completely ruined the tense atmosphere inside the room.

Everyone looked at Mo Fan with weird faces!

Mo Fan’s eyes widened, too. Since when did he ask for some special room service? Why would he even think about it at a time like this? He would only do so after he was done with the matter… ahem, speaking of which, the seductive voice sounded a little familiar…

Mo Fan walked to the door under everyone’s suspicious eyes, and opened the door.

As he thought… Asha’ruiya was standing at the door with a naughty grin!

“It’s really you, you little cunning vixen!” Mo Fan blurted out. The woman always seemed to know where to find him!
