The surroundings were completely empty, without any traces nearby. It implied that the incident had taken place quite some time ago. The Fiery Sorceress must have lost consciousness due to the ice poison, and happened to wake up when he arrived, thus she almost vented her anger on an innocent group of people.
Mo Fan had spent almost a day in the Fire Cloud Woods. He did not expect someone would manage to steal the Fire Calamity Fruit and inflict serious damage to the Fiery Sorceress while he was gone.
The icy spike penetrated deep into her flesh. If the spike were pulled out, the Fiery Sorceress' life might be in danger. Mo Fan was unsure how she managed to hold back the poison to protect her life.
How cruel, such a vicious move!
The person who had stolen the Fire Calamity Fruit must be rather familiar with the Fiery Sorceress, and specifically prepared the equipment to harm her!
Who would abuse the Fiery Sorceress' kindness toward humans?
The Fiery Sorceress was kind, but she was far from stupid. The person who managed to thrust the deadly spike into her back was probably someone she was willing to let her guard down in front of.

”What should we do now?” Nanyu finally trusted Mo Fan's words when she saw the terrifying Fiery Sorceress leaving the place.
Luckily they were not the first to arrive to steal the Fire Calamity Fruit. The Fiery Sorceress was indeed too powerful.
”What could we do? We'll have to find the way out ourselves. Look how angry she is, I bet the creatures in the Fire Cloud Woods no longer dare to show themselves,” said Mo Fan with a wry smile.
Mo Fan was extremely worried for Xinxia and the others. He was clueless about their whereabouts. He was hoping that they would not stumble into the infuriated Fiery Sorceress...
”Mm? The Swift Star Wolf has returned to his dimension?”
Mo Fan was too busy handling the Fiery Sorceress. He did not realize that the Swift Star Wolf had returned.
It was most likely that the Swift Star Wolf had run out of energy, and was forced to return to his world. Mo Fan immediately communicated with the Swift Star Wolf and asked him about the group's whereabouts.
The Swift Star Wolf was utterly worn out. Before he fell asleep, he told Mo Fan that the group was rushing back to Dunhuang City with another group of people.
Mo Fan let out a relieved sigh, knowing they were safe. However, Mo Fan was confused about why they were in a panic to go back to Dunhuang City. Besides, the Swift Star Wolf also mentioned something about another group of people. Who would they be?
They were in a rush to go back without waiting for him, could it be...
This goddamned Swift Star Wolf, why is he sleeping now, he still hasn't told me if they were the ones who stole the Fire Calamity Fruit!

Inside the Drifting Sand River, Zhao Yulin's crew was well-prepared and able to cross the Drifting Sand River safely without the help of a Psychic Magician.
”Luckily I've made some precautions. Otherwise, we would have troubles crossing the Drifting Sand River… the Fiery Sorceress has to cross the Drifting Sand River when she leaves the Burning Valley. The ruler of the Drifting Sand River will buy us some time, we should make use of the chance to escape,” the person wrapped in white cloth said with a hint of joy.
”Chen Yi, you've done well. The liquid of the Fire Calamity Fruit is able to cure your mother, and the rest of it has other uses too...” Zhao Yulin led the group with a joyful expression.
