Thousands of light rays were focused on the demonic shadow behind the Ice Emperor.
The shadow was the size of a mountain. The light rays were piercing it and leaving it full of holes. Its evil Aura was dissipating rapidly after being scorched by the sacred lights.
The Ice Emperor screamed at the sky. His eyes, ears, face, and throat had the same sacred light bursting out of them now, all attacking the demonic shadow.
The old man was in tremendous pain. He was a Forbidden Mage, and was extremely strong. However, the Giant Clock Mountain had set a perfect trap for him!
The Magic Formations established with Elemental Diamonds and the Ice Formation he stood on were not providing him the energy to open a gate at the bottom of the sea with a Forbidden Curse. They were supporting the chief’s Forbidden Curse instead!
The Forbidden Curse did fall, but it did not land on the coordinates the sea monsters had planned, but on the Ice Forbidden Mage who had long lost his will and mind.
The sunlight at noon was extremely bright. When the Forbidden Curse of Light finally fell, it felt like the whole sea, city, and the Giant Clock Mountain was going to melt.
If Chief Hua had not controlled its damage, Qinhuangdao and the surrounding waters would have had a very different fate!

A burned smell lingered in the air. Something had obviously perished and turned into scattering ashes.
Mo Fan’s vision recovered after a long time. The demonic shadow which had claimed to be the South Pole Emperor was gone by the time he could see clearly.
The old man in a white robe fell on the ground feebly. He no longer had an imperious demeanor. He looked like a dying old man.
“So that’s why there were two Forbidden Mages here…” Hua Yuezhu finally realized.
Chief Hua slowly walked through the curtain of light which remained. He had a holy look to him, despite his black hair, beard, and clothes. His temperament was completely different from his previous gentle demeanor. He was walking in the light like a child of the sun, spreading light by waving his hands and eliminating evil with his gaze.
“The truth is always difficult to find. The light you see in an abyss isn’t necessarily the exit, but the eye of the devil!” Chief Hua approached the aged Forbidden Mage.
“Can a Forbidden Mage be turned into a puppet?” Mo Fan asked Chief Hua in disbelief.
“The sea monsters’ conspiracy was only possible with the Ice Emperor’s full assistance. Didn’t you always believe Zhang Xiaohou was right?” Chief Hua asked in return.
Either Zhang Xiaohou was enticed, or the Ice Forbidden Mage was being controlled.
The truth had proven that Zhang Xiaohou was right. He had learned the truth, but only the tip of the iceberg.
“Do not underestimate the sea monsters’ intelligence, and do not underestimate humanity’s intelligence, either.”
It was the reason why Chief Hua had not changed his decision after hearing what these young Mages had to say.
He was relieved. These young Mages had not allowed the mists of the sea to fool their eyes. They had tried their best to learn the truth. They had done a great job, even though they had only learned a part of the truth.
As for the bigger iceberg, it was his responsibility as the military chief and the Guardian of China to handle it!
“Can you please explain the whole situation to me? I’m still a little lost,” Mo Fan stared at Chief Hua.
