Mo Fan and Mu Bai returned just around when Zhao Manyan was getting rid of his enemies. They were reluctant to admit they knew him when they heard his obscene tirade at the men.

Mo Fan was curious at times. What kind of childhood did Zhao Manyan have as a rich second generation, always bringing up lewd topics? If he was born in ancient times, he would be an infamous pervert, without a doubt!

“Where are the disciples of the Black Church?” Mo Fan asked.

“They already ran away. I lured some hornets over to them and drove them away. I contacted Golden Sun Knight Jiang Bin to handle the rest,” Mu Bai answered.

“Is it finally over?” Zhao Manyan asked, looking tired.

“More or less. We have already found the culprit of Green Sprouts Island,” Mo Fan replied.

“Mo Fan, things aren’t as simple as they look,” Mu Bai spoke up.

“What did you find?” Mo Fan asked.

“I’ve already conducted an experiment on the poppies that drove the Cross Mark Demon Titan crazy. I believe you two will be surprised by its contents,” Mu Bai said.

“Does it contain aphrodisiacs?” Zhao Manyan blurted out.

“Shut your f**king mouth!” Mu Bai yelled at him.

“Let’s talk business,” Mo Fan said quickly, before matters got worse.

“Zhao Manyan might not know it, but Mo Fan, you and I should be familiar with it. Do you remember what Salan used to lure the demon creatures into attacking the city?” Mu Bai said.

“The Frenzy Spring! It was similar to the Underground Holy Spring, and can be mixed with rain,” Mo Fan replied promptly.

“The poppies here have the same effects as the Frenzy Spring!” Mu Bai informed him.

Mo Fan was startled. The Frenzy Spring was Salan’s masterpiece. Why was it here in Crete?

“Are you saying Mr. Lin was very likely taking orders from the Black Vatican or Salan? Mu Bai, are you sure those poppies have the same effects as the Frenzy Liquid?” Mo Fan had to ask.

“I’m sure of it. I’ve been researching drugs and plants since the Calamity of the Ancient Capital. Around six months after the incident, I found a sample of the Frenzy Liquid among my uncle… Mu He’s possessions. I tried to figure out its composition, and learned it’s a powerful liquid made from the Underground Holy Spring, which can drive demon creatures into a frenzy,” Mu Bai stated firmly.

Mo Fan fell into deep thought.

Salan was called the Deathbringer and considered the most influential Red Cardinal of the Black Vatican, mainly because of the Frenzy Liquid. Once it was mixed with rain, it would provoke any hordes of demon creatures within over a hundred kilometers to attack the nearby cities.

The Frenzy Liquid was one of Salan’s signature accomplishments. The Enforcement Union had yet to figure out where the Frenzy Liquid was from, or who was making it. They had no idea how much of the Frenzy Liquid Salan still had, either!

If Salan could keep producing it, they would have to be on alert whenever it rained. A country would struggle to handle the pressure if a rampage started happening in many cities at the same time.

“Mu Bai, do you have any idea what’s going on?” Mo Fan finally asked.

“I can think of two possibilities. First, Salan’s men have infiltrated Crete and the Guild of the Wicked. They knew the Bishop of the Black Church was going to teach Mr. Lin a lesson, so they applied the Frenzy Liquid on the poppies to make the Demon Titan go out of control, resulting in this tragedy.”

“Second, Mr. Lin might be a member of the Black Vatican. He’s planting the ingredients for the Frenzy Liquid, and the Guild of the Wicked happened to pick on him, which caused this tragedy,” Mu Bai said.

Mo Fan agreed with Mu Bai’s analysis, especially the second scenario.

If it was the second possibility, Mr. Lin might be an important subordinate to Salan. They would be one step closer to finding Salan now that Mr. Lin was in their hands!

“Where’s Mr. Lin now?” Mo Fan asked when he realized how important the man was.

“Didn’t I already tell you? Golden Sun Knight Jiang Bin is watching him…” Mu Bai frowned as he finished the sentence. He took out his phone as he continued, “The knights of the Parthenon Temple should have been here five minutes ago, knowing their efficiency.”

“Did you contact Golden Sun Knight Jiang Bin?” Mo Fan queried grimly.

“Yes.”

“Let’s go take a look!”

Mo Fan told Zhao Manyan to stay at the olive grove to protect the evidence while he and Mu Bai went to look for Golden Sun Knight Jiang Bin.

Golden Sun Knight Jiang Bin was staying at a small house. Both Mr. Lin and his daughter were being kept in custody there. Mu Bai knew Jiang Bin was a responsible person, and he also trusted his strength as a Golden Sun Knight, thus he was the best option they had to keep an eye on Mr. Lin and his daughter.

They immediately picked up the smell of blood as they arrived.

“Damn it!” Mo Fan and Mu Bai cursed together.

When they went inside the house, a man in the armor of a Golden Sun Knight was sitting on the ground staring blankly. Most importantly, his eye sockets were empty.

Mu Bai quickly went ahead to take a look around outside while Mo Fan turned into a cloud of shadows and searched the house. However, he did not find Mr. Lin. The daughter had ended up as a peaceful corpse!

“Jiang Bin? What about him?”

“He’s still alive, but I’m afraid he’s been blinded,” Mu Bai said softly.

“He’s still alive? That’s great… Damn it, why didn’t we find out the truth earlier? We finally found someone important to the Black Vatican, yet he escaped right under our noses!” Mo Fan was having mixed feelings.

It was a relief that Jiang Bin was still alive. It was rare for the Black Vatican to spare someone’s life.

“Brother, I’m sorry for involving you in such a great mess,” Mo Fan patted Jiang Bin’s shoulder.

Jiang Bin was finally able to calm down after he heard their voices.

“I’m the one who should be sorry. I have failed to accomplish such a simple task,” Golden Sun Knight Jiang Bin said in shame.

“We didn’t think the Black Vatican would be involved, nor did we realize Mr. Lin was Salan’s man. Otherwise… speaking of which, did you see who took Mr. Lin away?” Mo Fan asked. Mo Fan was eager to find out everything about Salan that he could.

“She referred to herself as the Blue Bat,” Jiang Bin reported.

“Blue Bat!” Mo Fan was startled. It was her!?

“She asked me to tell you that she had a pleasant conversation with you at Crete’s Merchant Guild. It’s the reason why she spared my life,” Jiang Bin said. He completely lost his calm after finishing the sentence, overwhelmed by a sense of failure and humiliation.

Mo Fan’s heart pounded heavily.

That explained why she had saved Mr. Lin’s life!
