Chapter 190: The Old Ancestor Returns!
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio | Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
The treasury was robbed, and the entire Panlong family was in a constant state of panic!
...Bad news traveled fast.
The huge change that had happened to the Panlong family had been deliberately spread by someone. Like wildfire, it quickly spread throughout the entire Panlong Ancient City.
For a moment, all the cultivators discussed non-stop about it.
Regarding this, although the Panlong family’s feelings of hatred reached the extreme, there was nothing they could do. They could only close their doors and ignore the outside world.
Finally, on the evening of the second day, Zhao Hanshan and the others returned from hunting mutant beasts in the Myriad Great Mountain Range.
They had gained a lot from this trip.
With the masses, they had killed 18 powerful beasts of the Heaven Capture realm, which was enough to satisfy Dongfang Bubai’s needs.
However, when they returned to the Panlong family, they saw that all the members of the family were as if they were in mourning.
“What happened?”
Zhao Hanshan’s face darkened as a strong sense of unease rose in his heart. Thump!
Hearing this, Zhao Tianxiong fell to his knees heavily.
“Patriarch, the Panlong family has been robbed,” he said in a low voice with a sad face.
What was that? Robbed?
As soon as he said that, the hearts of the elders present sank.
“What exactly happened? Tell me clearly!” Zhao Hanshan shouted.
“Old ancestor, just as you left, a terrifying thief attacked the Panlong family. That person held a golden battle spear. He seems to be Qin Daofu from the Wicked Trio. Patriarch Qiankun wanted to use our race’s ultimate weapon to suppress him, but who knew that Qin Daofu was too brutal? He shattered the Green Hell Tower with just one spear! Patriarch Qiankun tried his best to stop him, but he was killed by him with one palm strike. Not even his bones were left! After that, Qin Daofu’s accomplices opened the door to the treasury at Panlong Cliff and stole all the treasures and resources that our family had accumulated over the past five thousand years.” Zhao Tianxiong sobbed. Qin Daofu again? The treasury at Panlong Cliff had been robbed? Hearing this, Zhao Hanshan’s body trembled violently.
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
A moment later, when the patriarchs arrived at the Panlong Cliff’s treasury, they saw that the originally majestic treasury was empty. Everything of value had been taken away.
In fact, the robbers did not even let go of the door to the treasury.
“D*mn it!”
“Qin Daofu, you b*stard, you’re going too far!”
“Insane, simply insane. This is the accumulation of the Panlong family for more than 5,000 years. Just like that… All gone?”
“This hatred is irreconcilable!”
Everyone let out heaven-shaking roars.
At this moment, they hated Qin Daofu and his accomplices to the extreme.
The only one who was relatively calm was probably Qi Zhentian.
“Sigh…”
Looking at the empty treasury in front of him, he was also shocked. A feeling of grief surged into his heart.
Fortunately, it was the Panlong family this time!
If Qin Daofu and the others were to target the Beihai family, they would probably not be able to stop them. They would also end up in the same miserable state as the Panlong family.
Thinking of this, Qi Zhentian could not help but sigh.
“Zhao Hanshan, that b*stard Qin Daofu is indeed hateful, but I think that the person who is even more hateful is the mastermind who is hiding in the dark. They appeared right after we left. From this, it can be seen that the identity of that traitor is definitely not ordinary.”
Hmm?
Qi Zhentian’s words caused Zhao Hanshan and the others to be greatly shocked!
They looked at each other, and their faces were extremely gloomy.
“Zhao Hanshan, you were the one who suggested going to the Myriad Great Mountain Range to hunt mutant beasts. If we hadn’t left, would this have happened?”
“Yeah, who exactly did you invite?”
“Now, even our foundation has been stolen. Even if we manage to invite that person and preserve our ancestral graves, what can we do to salvage the situation?”
“We shouldn’t have gone to the Myriad Great Mountain Range!”
Everyone criticized.
In response, Zhao Hanshan clenched his fists and did not refute.
“Alright, Zhao Hanshan was doing it for the benefit of the Panlong family. He’s not in the wrong. Moreover, his previous proposal was also agreed upon by all of us after discussion. Now that the treasury has been robbed, we can’t completely blame him. Right now, the most important thing is to find the traitor hidden in the Panlong family. If this person is not eliminated, such a thing will definitely happen again to the Panlong family. We might even be destroyed.”
At this moment, a black-robed patriarch in the crowd said in a deep voice. After saying that, he turned his gaze to Zhao Hanshan.
“At this point, are you still not going to tell us who that mysterious person is?”
Sigh…
Zhao Hanshan sighed heavily, his expression pained and sorrowful.
“A single misstep will cause a thousand years of regret… To be honest, the mysterious person I mentioned earlier is Dongfang Bubai.”
What was that? Dongfang Bubai?
Upon hearing this name, everyone present was stunned. Dongfang Bubai’s reputation was currently like thunder. Previously, this person had opened the five great Heavenly Gates and successfully walked to the end of the Path to Heaven.
“Is the Dongfang Bubai you mentioned the one from the Path to Heaven?” The black-robed patriarch continued to ask.
“I don’t know. That person claimed to be Dongfang Bubai, the heavens’ emissary. I’m not sure if he’s the Dongfang Bubai who completed the Path to Heaven. Previously, he helped the Dari Demonic Sect survive the Great Tribulation of High Heavens.”
Soon after, Zhao Hanshan told them everything he knew.
After hearing this, everyone looked at each other in shock and doubt.
“Can you still contact him? Doesn’t he want Heaven Capture realm corpses?
We’ll give him all the corpses of the mutant beasts we’ve obtained this time and ask him if he can tell us who the traitor hiding in the Panlong family is.”
The black-robed patriarch frowned.
“I’ll give it a try…”
As he spoke, Zhao Hanshan called out to Dongfang Bubai in his heart.
[Ding dong!]
[You have received a message from the Panlong family’s Zhao Hanshan. Please take note.]
In the Myth Inn, Lin Wudao was cultivating when he was suddenly jolted back to reality by the system’s notification.
“Zhao Hanshan is back?”
He flipped his hand and opened the Book of All Beings. As expected, Zhao Hanshan’s message appeared.
“Emissary Dongfang… Are you there?”
“Yes!”
“We’ve already killed 18 Heaven Capture realm mutant beasts. Apart from the ones you asked for, we want to know who the traitor of the Panlong family is with the remaining 8 corpses. I wonder if the Eastern Emissary will agree?” Zhao Hanshan asked carefully.
Lin Wudao smiled when he saw this.
“Alright! At the ancestral worship ceremony tomorrow, I will protect the ancestral grave of your Panlong family and reveal the identity of the traitor for you.”
“How did it go?”
Seeing the excitement on Zhao Hanshan’s face, everyone hurriedly asked.
“Success! At the ancestral worship ceremony tomorrow, Dongfang Bubai promised to protect the ancestral grave of the Panlong family. At the same time, he will expose the hidden traitor. Let’s wait and see.”
Zhao Hanshan clenched his fists.
When these words were said, everyone was overjoyed!
“That’s great!”
“When we find that traitor tomorrow, I will personally kill that bastard and let him die without a burial place!”
“If this person doesn’t die, our family won’t be able to live in peace!”
“I’d like to see just who gave birth to this evil creature. When the time comes, I will kill him too!”
The patriarchs were filled with righteous indignation.
After saying that, all of them stayed where they were and none of them left.
Just like that, time passed by, and soon, it was the day of the ancestral worship ceremony..
