Demon Appears on Modu Street, Silent Show-Off Is Most Lethal

In the Lujiazui district, not far from the Three Giants Building, the middle floors of the Silver Light Star Seed Building—six levels in total—belonged to the Ginkgo Leaf Biological Potion Company.

On the Laboratory Floor, a massive demon injected with a tranquilizer was tightly bound by Chain Magic Tools. Most of the experimenters here were ordinary people, yet they looked utterly accustomed to the sight of the ferocious beast.

As usual, the experimenters pushed the drowsy demon into the lab to collect live samples, but they failed to notice the demon's eyelids twitching ever so slightly.

After lunch, Mo Fan didn't linger long. He left the Hunting Office. Since he rarely made it to the Urban Area, he naturally wanted to buy something to bring back for Xin Xia.

Strolling through the streets of Modu, luxury sports cars roared past him one after another. Mo Fan chuckled softly to himself—this scene was a dime a dozen in Modu.

He'd spent the past few days racking his brain over resources he could claim early, but found precious few. The simplest of them were the ones in the Ancient Capital.

The Kun Jing Spring Sources of the seven Weiju Villages were part of the Great Azure Dragon's origin. But if he didn't evacuate the Weiju Villagers first and recklessly drew the spring sources, the villagers would likely die at the hands of the Undead.

So it was best to inherit the Ancient King's Throne first, then collect the Kun Jing Spring Sources.

As for the other resources—well, those weren't so easy to get.

Just as he was thinking this, a sudden riot broke out on the street ahead. Thick smoke rose, and people scattered in panic in every direction.

No way—even a big city like Modu could have demons infiltrating it? Mo Fan stared, dumbfounded.

Let's check it out!

[Teleport]

Without a second word, Mo Fan vanished on the spot. The next second, he stood a hundred meters away, right at the edge of the Accident.

The luxury sports cars that had been roaring past were now stalled, several of them piled on top of each other, burning with Strange Fire!

"Help! Someone, help!"

"Save me! Save me! Whoever saves me gets a million!!"

The Rich Second Generation, pinned inside his Cockpit, spotted Mo Fan and immediately shouted.

A million???

Mo Fan glanced at the sports car—worth tens of millions at least—then at the Rich Second Generation's blood-smeared face. You really don't want to live, do you.

"Stop yelling. Who knows when the City Demon Hunter Squad will get here. If you call that demon over, I won't be able to save any of you!" Mo Fan had no time for them. He swept his gaze around, searching for the demon.

Flames blazed. Smoke billowed everywhere. He had to admit, the smoke from burning luxury sports cars was thick. Good thing the interior was built with Magic Stones, so there was no risk of explosion from the fire.

Strange—where was the demon? Could it be hiding?

If it was hiding, that would be a problem. Wait—why did the back of his neck suddenly feel cold?

Mo Fan's combat experience was rich. The moment he sensed something wrong, he already had his arms over his head and was crouching down. No sooner had he ducked than a chill breeze swept past above him.

The sound of air friction exploded right by Mo Fan's ear!!

[Teleport]

Mo Fan vanished without a sound, reappearing ten meters away.

What the hell was that?!

Mo Fan cursed loudly, but he saw nothing—like it could turn invisible. Wait. Invisible.

It clicked. A demon with Mimicry ability, able to change its body to match the environment, just like a Chameleon.

[Crimson Moon · Lightning Seal · Electric Field]

Now that he knew what was going on, it was simple. Mo Fan aimed his hand at the ground and unleashed a Level 4 Thunder Seal. Strange, violent red lightning crawled like dragons and snakes, covering a twenty-five-meter radius.

As the Crimson Moon Lightning crackled, the lightning climbed up out of thin air not far from Mo Fan—as if something was standing right there!

That was it. That was where the demon was.

"Fire Seed—"

"Watch out behind you!!"

Just as Mo Fan was about to use Fire Seed, a clear, cold voice suddenly rang in his ear. Mo Fan inexplicably felt the voice was familiar.

[Shadow Escape · Shuttle]

Since there were outsiders around, Mo Fan didn't want to expose [Bloodthirsty Soul Extraction] or [Teleport], so he used Shadow Magic.

His entire form turned into a shadow and vanished on the spot, reappearing several meters away.

The moment he left, a three-meter-tall White Scaled Demon suddenly sat down where he'd been. The ground shook, and a crater formed in the spot.

If no one had warned him, Mo Fan would have been hurt at the very least.

He had plenty of demon-hunting experience, but what could he do when his hardware couldn't keep up?

"Thanks—huh? Mu Nujiao?"

Mo Fan looked toward the direction of the warning and found two "old acquaintances."

Mu Nujiao and Ai Tutu. Of course, right now they were still the youthful, shy versions—not yet the sophisticated, sexy beauty of Director Mu later on.

"You know me?" Mu Nujiao's eyes showed a flicker of confusion, but she quickly composed herself: "I've already called the City Demon Hunter Squad. They'll be here in fifteen minutes."

Fifteen minutes? I could kill them twice over by then!!

Mo Fan was eerily calm. Two monsters—one exposed, one still in Mimicry!!

"Do you have a plan? I'll help you. My main cultivation is Plant Element, and my secondary is Wind Element." Mu Nujiao said, her fighting spirit blazing.

"Good."

"I main Light Element—I'll help too!" Ai Tutu clenched her chubby little fist and said.

Mo Fan: "Go play somewhere else."

Ai Tutu: (⊙_⊙)

Ai Tutu had actually been pretty fond of Mo Fan before, but now that goodwill was shattered. How dare he look down on this young lady!

Mu Nujiao ignored Ai Tutu, whose bear-like pout had swelled to full size. After all, they were fighting demons—keeping her away was for her own good!

The White Scaled Demon missed its strike, turned around, and fixed its brutal eyes on Mo Fan and Mu Nujiao. Meanwhile, the invisible demon had gone still.

Had it been electrocuted to death by that Level 4 Thunder Seal? No—no Lingering Soul Remnant had burst out, which meant the invisible demon was still alive.

"The invisible demon got hit by my Thunder Seal just now. It should be paralyzed," Mo Fan said to Mu Nujiao.

"Got it, I understand!"

[Crimson Moon · Lightning Seal · Frenzied Strategy]

Mo Fan raised his hand and released a scarlet bolt of lightning. The strike was sharp and precise, landing squarely on the White Scaled Demon. It was a Servant-level demon—taking a 3.5x amplified Level Two Thunder Seal was enough to gravely wound it!!

Against these scaled demons, Lightning Magic proved absolutely crucial!

The Lightning Element's penetrative power could slip through the gaps in the scales, burrowing into the demon's muscles, blood vessels, and internal organs. Its explosive force could directly rupture blood vessels or even detonate organs from the inside.

No wonder Lightning had remained the foremost Element for millennia, and why Longhu Mountain Magic Mansion had always hung the treasured plaque reading "Lightning Magic Reaches the Heavens"!!

The White Scaled Demon froze stiff on the spot after being struck by the Thunder Seal. Moments later, blood began seeping slowly from its body. Its insides were already destroyed—the only reason it hadn't died yet was the demon's formidable vitality!

So strong!!!

Mu Nujiao's beautiful eyes went wide. She'd thought Mo Fan would need her support, but he had crippled one demon with his very first move.

Did that make her look kind of useless?

Well then, that just left the invisible demon.
