The firefall soon filled the cave, despite its size and accessibility, leaving the Mountain Men no escape.

Sunny had tricked the Mountain Men into believing it was time for them to go home and enjoy a meal!

They were taking revenge by playing the Mountain Men’s game back at them. If the Mountain Men could mimic their voices and trick them, why couldn’t they mimic the Mountain Men’s voices to mislead them?

The Mountain Men were annoying because they would not dare to show themselves unless necessary. A violent Mage like Mo Fan would be wasting too much time on looking for the Mountain Men to eliminate them all.

He had asked Sunny to trick the Mountain Men into returning home while he followed Mu Bai and the others back to their cave.

A single Super Fire Spell was enough to send all the Mountain Men to Heaven. The whole family was able to reunite there!

Their cries of agony rose continuously, yet the students were only grinning pleasantly.

It was not like they had no compa.s.sion, but these Mountain Men were too vicious. They realized the Mountain Men were not just trying to scare them previously. They would have suffered miserably if they ended up falling into the Mountain Men’s hands.

How could they not be pleased to see such a vicious species being annihilated?

On the other hand, the Super Spell totally surprised the students. They had thought the lecturer who was teaching the cla.s.s on demon creatures or magic dueling would be doing the dirty work since they should be experienced fighters, yet they both took a step back and let the lecturer of magic theory handle the rest!

It was as spectacular as a physical education teacher solving a challenging International Mathematical Olympiad’s question, or a math teacher doing a Thomas Flare on the ground!

Boleyn pulled Mo Fan’s sleeve and asked softly, “Lecturer, do you really teach magic theory?”

The way Lecturer Mo Yifan had constructed a Fire Star Palace and summoned the shower of heavenly flames was too astonis.h.i.+ng. It had wiped out the detestable Mountain Men, leaving not a single one alive!

“(Cough cough), I’m more like an all-arounder!” Mo Fan explained awkwardly.

“Lecturer Mo Yifan, when’s your next cla.s.s? I’ll be there.”

“Mm, mm, me too. I’ll go even if you increase the price!”

The students had witnessed the strength of the lecturers in person. The Mountain Men they did not stand a chance against were like little chicks in front of their lecturers. It was obvious that the lecturers could easily handle an even bigger group of Mountain Men if they did not have to protect the students.

“I believe everyone has learned a lot from this trip. Remember to write a simple summary on what you’ve learned which you can revise later. Do you understand?” Mo Fan immediately gave advice like a teacher.

The students were very obedient after witnessing his strength. They promised they would not miss out on any of the trio’s cla.s.ses!

——

The trip was a little adventurous and risky. Mo Fan, Zhao Manyan, and Mu Bai also needed to learn from their mistakes in order to prepare for their next few excursions and prevent accidents from happening.

The group returned to the plantation to rest while Mo Fan stayed behind in the cave looking for valuables.

The Mountain Men of the Andes Mountains enjoyed collecting human valuables. They would treat anything s.h.i.+ny as precious and either wear them or hide them in their caves.

Unfortunately, the Heavenly Flames of the Burning Valley were too powerful. Normal jewelry could not withstand the heat, and had all melted in the flames.

“Seriously? There’s nothing left here. I should have gone easy on them. I could have sold the valuables for gold,” Mo Fan searched the cave helplessly.

Thud!

Something tripped Mo Fan out of nowhere. It sounded like a metallic artifact.

Rumors said the Mountain Men too had submitted themselves to the ancient G.o.ds and Totem beasts just like humans, but they eventually took the path of demon creatures instead of magic civilization. Most of the Totem Containers had fallen into their hands.

Therefore, the Mountain Men possessed a lot of valuable ancient artifacts. Mo Fan could tell the thing he had kicked was something precious.

He picked up the object from a pile of ashes. Little Flame Belle wanted to join in on the fun, and puffed up her cheeks and blew at the thing that resembled a container.

Cough cough cough!, Mo Fan started hacking. Little Flame Belle mimicked her father and started coughing, too.

Mo Fan flicked Little Flame Belle on the forehead and rolled his eyes at her before inspecting the ancient artifact.

“A skull?” Mo Fan blurted out in disappointment when he realized what it was.

It was just a skull? What the heck? He had searched the entire cave and only found a skull in the end?

What the heck was a skull good for? Mo Fan threw it on the ground in a fit of anger.

“Ling!~” Little Flame Belle surprisingly picked the skull up and handed it back to Mo Fan.

“What now? You like playing with skulls too? What kind of fetish is that?” Mo Fan shunned it.

“Ling!~” Little Flame Belle tried her best to express her thoughts.

“You’re saying that your heavenly flames would have melted an ordinary skull, right? Fine, it’s a very tough skull. You can keep it as your toy. I don’t want it.” Mo Fan ignored Little Flame Belle.

Little Flame Belle actually kept the skull as her toy. It was strange seeing such an adorable little creature holding a skull with both hands.

Mo Fan touched the skull and wondered aloud, “Speaking of which, why does the skull feel a little cold in my hands? That’s not possible, especially after we just cooked it with our flames. Forget it, I’ll find someone to appraise it once we are back. We won’t know its secrets even if we inspect it here.”

——

Little Flame Belle continued to play with the tough skull on their way back. She would burn it with her heavenly flames at times, but not only was the skull still intact, it did not even heat up! Little Flame Belle was amazed.

“Your daughter seems to have an odd interest,” Zhao Manyan laughed upon seeing that.

Mo Fan was getting a headache too. Perhaps Little Flame Belle had never seen something that her heavenly flames could not destroy, so she was stubbornly having a showdown with the skull.

Mo Fan felt sorry for the skull, too. It was already a skull, yet Little Flame Belle was still torturing it continuously with her flames. Couldn’t she let it rest in peace instead?

“Mu Bai, did you find anything suspicious at the plantation?” Mo Fan asked.

Mu Bai shook his head.

There was not a single trace of the Frenzy Poppies. It seemed like they were wrong about the place.

“It’s fine, we have plenty of time to investigate them all,” Mo Fan shrugged.

“Yes, we should be right on the track. It’s only a matter of time until we find them,” Mu Bai agreed.

“We are going to be rich once we get back. We now have the capital to bet on the magic duels!” Zhao Manyan seemed to have forgotten about the Black Vatican, and was caught up in the compet.i.tion between the guest lecturers.
