Versatile Mage: Lord of Space

"Should we call for backup immediately?" Jiang Shaoxu asked.

Ai Jiangtu and his group haven't gone too far, they can definitely make it back in time. The villagers in this village have been held hostage by so many bandit mages. If they have those people as human resources, then this will be troublesome.

As soon as they picked up the communicator, they unsurprisingly discovered that the village clearly had something to block signals, making the communication device unusable.

"Let's go straight for them. Mo Fan and I will deal with them. Mu Nujiao, you and Jiang Shaoxu protect the villagers. Just stay hidden and don't show yourselves," Lin Lan said.

……

"Hey, you two..." Just as Sigaku was enjoying the thrill of being in control, he suddenly noticed two Asian youths slowly walking out from the bushes, seemingly out of place with the chaos around them.

They walked calmly through the encirclement of the red-adorned mages and came straight to Sig. The thugs momentarily forgot to stop them, exchanging bewildered glances as they sized up the two men.

Xige narrowed his eyes, his gaze casually sweeping over Lin Lan and Mo Fan, grinning with a mouthful of yellow teeth: "Yellow-skinned monkeys. You're tourists, aren't you? You're unlucky to have stumbled upon our Red Ornament Guild on business."

Lin Lan and Mo Fan didn't even lift their eyelids when they heard about the Red Ornaments Guild.

"Boss, I think this kid is pretty good. He's fair-skinned and looks clean. It's perfect to send him to Fatty. Doesn't that guy love Asian men's soft skin? Hahaha!" The red-haired mage grinned and pointed at Lin Lan.

Lin Lan glanced at him coldly, a mocking smile playing on her lips: "You think you're worthy? Mo Fan will deal with him!"

Before Lin Lan could finish speaking, Mo Fan's palm suddenly erupted with blazing flames. That seemingly casual wave of his hand sent the flames tracing a deadly arc through the air, striking the red-haired mage precisely in the chest.

"Boom~~~~~~~~"

Amidst the deafening explosion, the red-haired mage didn't even have time to scream before being engulfed by the raging flames.

The flames penetrated his internal organs, burning them black. When his charred body collapsed heavily to the ground, even the last breath he exhaled carried a pungent, burnt smell.

The entire scene froze instantly. The bandits' sinister smiles, which hadn't yet faded, were now frozen on their faces.

No one expected that the seemingly bodyguard next to this gentle young man would act so ruthlessly and decisively, daring to launch the first attack amidst the encirclement of more than fifty desperate criminals.

Nishigaku's pupils contracted sharply; he had a feeling he had messed with the wrong person.

This young man before me is no ordinary person; is he a disciple of a great family?
The bodyguard next to him, with his sharp and precise control of fire magic, was clearly declaring in the most direct way: You've messed with the wrong person!

"How about this, there are fifty of you here. Give each of you 500,000 and I'll let you leave," Lin Lan said.

"?!"

Xige was immediately enraged. Without even asking around the area, he realized that the Red Ornament Guild was a renowned name in the region.

They've never failed at robbery, but you, you yellow-skinned monkey, have turned the tables and started robbing them.

They are truly going against the Heavenly Order; they deserve to die!
"You two are just waiting to die!" Xige roared.

"Silent Thunder Death Ray..."

"High...high-level mage?"

"Run, brothers!"

…… ……

The wind in Sandaokou carried the fragrance of flowers. Zhao Manyan caught a glimpse of the alluring, mature woman named Ouni giving him a seductive wink. He knew perfectly well that he could win her over tonight.

I've been tuning the piano for so long, and I haven't seen a single passerby around.

He glanced around to make sure it was deserted, then decided to be unrestrained. He pressed his strong chest against her soft body, stared at her for a few seconds, and then lowered his head to kiss her.

At first, Oni resisted, but the wall slam made her tremble, and her bones inexplicably went limp. Being stuck here was incredibly boring; a little excitement wouldn't hurt, since they were just strangers anyway.

It has to be said that Zhao Manyan is indeed skilled at flirting with girls; his techniques are quite adept.

These few touches sent shivers down Ouni's spine. Even she, a woman of many experiences, was somewhat surprised. Weren't Asian men supposed to be dull and uninteresting in this regard? This blond Asian man in front of her seemed to be an exception.

"Clang clang~~~~~~"

Just as Zhao Manyan was about to succeed, an untimely communicator beep suddenly broke in.

Ou Ni stiffened and abruptly pushed Zhao Manyan away: "It's urgent, wait a moment."

"It's okay, you go ahead with your work, I'll continue with mine." Zhao Manyan smiled with a roguish air.

Ouni disagreed, believing that such a signal meant something serious had happened.

"Oni, get your people up here right now, we're in big trouble!" A man's urgent and anxious voice came from the other end of the communicator.

"What happened?" Oni's tone immediately turned serious.

"Two high-level mages wiped out a large group of our brothers, and now they're trying to rob us." The man's voice was filled with unspeakable shame and anger, but he still managed to say it.

"What? Say that again!" Oni's eyes widened suddenly.

"In short, the enemy is too strong, come and provide support quickly!"

After hanging up the communicator, Oni stood there stunned for several seconds, unable to recover.

Zhao Manyan had sharp ears, and even though Ouni tried to hide it, he overheard most of it. Seeing her frowning, he laughed instead: "There are quite a few thugs here. You're lucky to have run into me. Come on, I'll go up with you and take a look. I want to see who's so arrogant as to dare to rob people in broad daylight!"

"You're good at fighting?" Oni glanced at him sideways.

"Dealing with a few petty thieves is a piece of cake. Enough talk, come on up, don't let those bandits cause trouble there." Zhao Manyan exuded masculinity, and with a thought, he activated his Winged Demon Tool.

In an instant, golden feathers that shimmered with light appeared one after another behind him, slowly opening and unfolding with a mechanical sound of metal scraping against metal. A moment later, a pair of golden wings suddenly spread out, their dazzling light so bright that Oni could hardly open her eyes!
The man's wings were comparable to those of a luxury car. Oni's expression changed instantly; she truly hadn't expected this young man to be such a big spender. Winged magical artifacts were among the most luxurious items even for mages!
"Come up here." Zhao Manyan smiled wickedly and gestured for Ou Ni to come over.

Before Ou Ni could react, Zhao Manyan swept her up in his arms and carried her straight up into the sky through the openwork above the pavilion.

"I helped you deal with those petty thieves, how are you going to thank me?" Zhao Manyan asked with a provocative smile.

"Do whatever you want." This was the first time O'Neil had flown so directly, and a hint of panic flashed across her face. But the excitement hidden within that panic was stirring her hormones. If she didn't have urgent business to attend to, she wouldn't mind starting right there, regardless of time or place. (End of Chapter)
