Chapter 67 - Attack
Zhao Pangzi's terrified expression made Zhao Buhui even more curious, and he could not help but ask.
"What exactly happened? Tell me quickly."
"Okay, I'll tell you, I'll tell you," Zhao Pangzi took a deep breath and said solemnly.
"After that attacker entered Adai's courtyard, he never came out again. He died directly inside, and his death was very miserable."
"When the attacker died, no one knew. It was only when someone saw that thing this morning that they realized something was wrong, so they rushed over to check it out."
"Ah? That thing? What thing?" Zhao Buhui was confused. He did not understand what Zhao Pangzi was talking about.
"That was a sealed space made up of four earth walls. It was very high, probably about ten meters tall. There was only one exit above it,
"It's like a house without a roof, but it's enclosed on all four sides. It's very narrow," Zhao Pangzi explained.
"I understand, but what does this have to do with the attacker?" Zhao Buhui was confused.
"Because the attacker died inside. You'll know when you go over and take a look. It's very tragic."
"Okay, I'll go over and take a look."
Zhao Buhui was very curious. He could not figure out what was going on, so he quickly walked towards Adai's Natural Residence.
Soon, they arrived at Adai's door. They saw a tall, square-shaped earth wall. The earth wall was more than ten meters tall, and Zhao Buhui was stunned.
There was a long ladder at the bottom of the earth wall. Many of the Zhao clan's disciples stood at the top of the ladder and looked at the interior of the walls. Then, they hurriedly came down with pale faces.
Zhao Buhui became even more curious when he saw this scene. He immediately walked along the ladder and came to the top. From the top of the earth walls, he looked at the interior.
However, when he looked inside, his pupils constricted and his face became abnormally pale.
"What a terrifying attack method. Using the tall earth wall to seal the enemy inside. When the enemy can't dodge, earth spikes were released to pierce through the enemy."
Zhao Buhui looked at the narrow space inside the sealed Earth Wall and saw the sharp earth spikes pierce through a black-clothed person. He saw the despair and fear on his face.
Zhao Buhui realized that not only was the white panther powerful, its methods were also very ruthless. It was definitely not kind. Whoever dared to provoke the white leopard would probably end up in a very miserable state.
"Zhao Pangzi, remember, no matter what happens in the future, you must stay far away from the white panther. Don't offend it, it's too dangerous," Zhao Buhui warned.
"Big Brother, don't worry, I understand. Even if you give me a hundred more guts, I still won't dare to provoke the white panther. It's too scary," Zhao Pangzi said while wiping his cold sweat.
"Alright, let's go down. The clan leader and the rest are here."
Zhao Buhui and Zhao Pangzi hurriedly walked down the ladder and started chatting with the clan leader.
At this moment, the clan leader and the rest were also very solemn. They carefully inspected the scene and then thought about the consequences of being sealed inside the earth walls.
All of a sudden, they felt a chill down their spines. This was because they felt that after they entered, there was a very high chance that they would be heavily injured or even die.
"It's too powerful. What kind of Summoned Beast is this? As someone who has reached the Black Iron Rank Peak, I feel that it's extremely dangerous," the Third Elder said solemnly.
"Yeah, I also feel that it's very dangerous. Adai has really summoned a terrifying existence this time." The Second Elder nodded solemnly as well.
"Clan leader, what should we do? It's such a powerful white panther. We don't need to protect it at all. It's even stronger than me, so why should we protect it?" the Fifth Elder said gloomily.
Last night, he was sleeping next door and did not hear any sound. Although he was asleep, it was still a bit embarrassing that he did not hear anything at all.
The Fourth Elder was also a bit embarrassed. He did not sleep heavily, but he did not hear any sound either, which made him a bit depressed.
The main thing was that the white panther was too powerful. It did not even give the enemy time to scream, yet it had penetrated the enemy. This kind of strength was really shocking.
"How about this? Let's do our best to nurture the white panther. I remember that in the Heavenly Treasure Shop, there is a Fertile Soil Fruit that can raise the Earth Wall to an Advanced Level. Third Elder, go buy it," the clan leader said seriously.
"But clan leader, the Fertile Soil Fruit is too expensive. If we buy it, our entire clan will have to tighten our clothing and reduce our food," Third Elder said hesitantly.
"It doesn't matter. The difference between the power of an Advanced Level Skill and an Intermediate Level Skill is huge. As long as the white panther eats it, its strength will increase once again..."
"As long as it's around in the future, no one will dare to sneak attack our Zhao clan again," the clan leader said solemnly.
The clan leader felt a little pained to spend so much money to buy the Fertile Soil Fruit. However, the white panther was Adai's Summoned Beast. It was one of his people, so he naturally had to take good care of it and nurture it well.
"Okay, I'll go buy it now."
The Third Elder gritted his teeth in pain. The stingy Third Elder actually agreed to the clan leader's suggestion. He turned around and left to buy the Fertile Soil Fruit.
When everyone saw that the Third Elder agreed, they were also a little surprised.
The Third Elder was known to be a stingy person. Every time the clan members came to use money, the Third Elder would dig deep and ask about the usage of every single cent.
This also made many people feel helpless. They secretly said that the Third Elder was stingy.
However, the clan leader only said a few words, and the Third Elder actually agreed.
Although the Third Elder had a reluctant and pained expression on his face, he still took a few steps forward and brought a few subordinates to the Heavenly Treasure Shop.
This made everyone sigh. Even the stingy Third Elder had changed his attitude when it came to helping the clan.
"Let's go and tell white leopard the good news. First Elder, I'll leave this place to you. Investigate the identity of the enemy," said the clan leader.
"Okay."
The crowd split into two groups. First Elder investigated the identity of the attacker, while the clan leader led the remaining elders to the living room.
In the living room...
The people who walked in immediately saw Adai, who had just woken up and was still in a daze. There was also the white panther, who was lying on the carpet, calmly eating an orange.
The clan leader immediately took the lead and told the white panther the good news about the Fertile Soil Fruit. He told the white panther that it would soon be able to increase its strength.
"Thank you."
When Li Xuan heard the clan leader's words, he used God's Perspective to look at the Heavenly Treasure Shop. When he saw the terrifying price of the Fertile Soil Fruit, he was also very surprised.
The clan leader had taken out so much courage to buy the Fertile Soil Fruit, which made Li Xuan look at the clan leader in a new light. Li Xuan also remembered this favor.
"You're welcome, now you're also a part of our Zhao clan. In the future, if you have any needs, just say it. As the clan leader, I guarantee that I will do my best to help you." The clan leader patted his chest and said.
"OK, I'll make a list later. You guys help me find it." Li Xuan said bluntly.
"Erm... Alright, no problem."
The clan leader did not expect Li Xuan to be so impolite. However, since Li Xuan could increase his strength, the clan leader did not refuse. In fact, he even intended to help Li Xuan with all his might.
Such an attitude made Li Xuan look at this clan in a new light. Especially when he saw the unity of these elders, he felt that this clan would definitely have a glorious future.
Having seen all kinds of schemes, Li Xuan felt that this kind of united clan was very interesting. Even if he stayed here, he still felt very comfortable.
A moment later...
While Li Xuan was conversing with the members of the Zhao clan, he suddenly stood up and rushed out of the house at lightning speed.
"What's going on?"
The members of the Zhao clan looked at the white panther who had suddenly left and were all at a loss. They did not know what was going on.
"Let's go and take a look."
The clan leader's expression was solemn. He did not know what was going on with the white panther. He was afraid that the white panther would completely leave the Zhao clan, so he hurriedly ran outside.
They were very fast, but they could not find the white panther at the entrance of the Zhao clan. This caused them to sink into anxiety.
At this moment...
A member of the Zhao clan who was covered in blood ran over. He was the subordinate of the Third Elder, and he was also a trusted member of the clan.
"Clan leader, something big has happened. We had just bought the Fertile Soil Fruit and were less than 100 meters away from the shop when we were suddenly ambushed by three experts."
"Those people were very powerful. They were all at the Black Iron Rank Peak. The Third Elder was severely injured in just one move. He is in grave danger now. Please go and save him," the blood-stained member of the Zhao clan hurriedly said.
"What? Are they courting death?!"
Hearing this, the Zhao Clan Leader's eyes were about to split open. His entire body was radiating a cold killing intent as he directly rushed out.
The remaining elders did not hesitate either. They summoned their Summoned Beasts as they ran quickly with killing intent.
Only the First Elder did not go out. He wanted to stay in the Zhao clan to prevent the clan from being ambushed. However, he did not stay idle either. He immediately mobilized a large number of his clansmen to go and provide assistance.
Of course, Healing Summoners were the first choice.. The Third Elder definitely needed treatment for his injuries, so the First Elder sent the best Healing Summoner in the clan.
