Chapter 570 Another Attack
Chapter 570 Another Attack
"Fellow Daoist Wu, how are your injuries? And how are Fellow Daoist Pan and Fellow Daoist Chu recovering from their injuries?"
Upon seeing Wu Ming arrive, Huang Mingxuan, whose face was originally full of worry and whose brows were furrowed, quickly composed himself and asked.
Upon hearing Huang Mingxuan's inquiry, Wu Ming first nodded to express his gratitude for the other party's concern, and then replied, "Thank you for your concern, Fellow Daoist Huang. My injuries are not serious; I have only suffered some minor injuries."
However, Fellow Daoists Chu and Pan are in more serious condition; they will likely need several more days of recuperation to fully recover.
As he spoke, he truthfully recounted the current physical condition of everyone to Huang Mingxuan.
After listening, Huang Mingxuan nodded slightly to show his understanding. He then took out three exquisite jade bottles from his pocket and handed them to Wu Ming, saying with a hint of apology:
"These are all top-quality healing pills that can help Fellow Daoist Chu and Fellow Daoist Pan recover their strength as quickly as possible. Since Fellow Daoist Wu has already come, please pass them on to them!"
"I originally intended to visit in person, but my clan suffered heavy losses last night, and there are still many matters to be dealt with. I simply do not have the time to go. I hope Fellow Daoist Wu will understand."
Originally, as soon as he returned last night, Huang Mingxuan planned to immediately send either the Third Elder Huang Wenyong or the Fifth Elder Huang Wenyan to visit Wu Ming and the other two, and personally hand them the healing pills.
It should be noted that Wu Ming and the others were specially invited by the Huang clan to provide assistance!
Now that Wu Ming and the other two are seriously injured, how can the Huang family, as the host family, sit idly by?
However, things didn't go as planned. When Huang Mingxuan returned to the camp with his men, he was shocked to learn some terrible news.
It turns out that the Huang clan had also been attacked by the enemy last night!
An elder who had been enshrined died, and several members of the clan who had reached the Qi Refining Realm passed away.
Not only that, the powerful Third Elder Huang Wenyong was also unfortunately injured.
The Fifth Elder, Huang Wenyan, needs to devote himself entirely to handling the aftermath of the Huang clan members who perished last night.
This is why Huang Mingxuan was unable to visit Wu Ming and the other two in time.
At this moment, seeing Wu Ming personally come to visit, Huang Mingxuan handed over the pills he had prepared the night before to Wu Ming without hesitation, asking him to pass them on to Chu Nan and Pan Ning.
Upon hearing Huang Mingxuan's words, Wu Ming couldn't help but feel puzzled and asked, "What misfortune befell your family last night? Why did you suffer such a severe blow?"
It turns out that the fierce battle that broke out at the Biluo Sword Sect last night attracted the help of various forces.
As a member of the Huang clan, they would naturally not stand idly by and would send their elite forces to provide support.
Wu Ming was present at the time and naturally knew that when they were besieging the mysterious and unpredictable black-clad elder of the Blood Fiend Sect, Huang Mingxuan and Elder Xin, the Huang family's retainer, both stepped forward and joined this thrilling battle.
Wu Ming knew all of this perfectly well.
However, in Wu Ming's memory, he clearly remembered that Huang Mingxuan and Elder Xin were not targeted by the men in black at that time; they were merely unfortunate enough to be struck by the terrifying Heart-Corroding Curse.
After that, they were surrounded by a thick fog. Although they suffered some injuries, they were all fine and there were no casualties.
So here's the question: why are they suddenly claiming that the Huang clan suffered heavy losses last night?
Could it be that some unexpected change occurred during this period, exceeding everyone's expectations?
Wu Ming couldn't help but ponder this.
Seeing the confusion on Wu Ming's face, Huang Mingxuan already understood the question in Wu Ming's heart.
He immediately explained, "Ah! It's a long story!"
Last night, Elder Xin and I unfortunately fell victim to that utterly detestable Heart-Corroding Curse and were trapped by that strange and unpredictable mist!
Fortunately, fate spared us. Thanks to the help of Fellow Daoists Chu Nan and Mo Yixi, we were able to escape.
Although he sustained some injuries, he is otherwise unharmed.
Huang Mingxuan paused for a moment and then continued:
"But who would have thought that when we returned to camp, even greater losses awaited us."
Our base was attacked last night!
Those damned bastards were truly ruthless; they not only killed several of my Huang clan members who were at the Qi Refining stage, but also...
The crucial issue is that Elder Xiong Lin, a highly skilled late-stage Foundation Establishment elder, perished last night, and even the ever-valiant Fifth Elder, Huang Wenyong, is severely injured and his fate is unknown!
At this point, Huang Mingxuan gritted his teeth in anger, his eyes widening as if they were about to spit fire.
He never expected that those despicable enemies would launch a surprise attack on their camp while he was out assisting the Biluo Sword Sect!
This sudden attack was like a bolt from the blue, causing severe damage to the Huang family.
You must know that these clansmen at the Qi Refining Realm are the lifeblood of the Huang Clan!
Among this group of promising young people, who dares to say that a Huang family elder will not emerge in the future?
However, they have now been brutally murdered by their enemies and have lost their lives innocently.
Even worse, the elder Xiong Lin, who was at the late Foundation Establishment stage, was not spared from the disaster!
This highly respected Elder Xiong Lin has been a patron of the Huang clan for decades, and he has also married a member of the Huang clan, so he can be considered a member of the Huang clan as well.
His passing last night has undoubtedly dealt a devastating blow to the entire family.
For the Huang family, which only had a dozen or so Foundation Establishment Realm elders, such a loss was simply catastrophic!
What? Our camp was attacked by the enemy last night? Elder Xiong Lin is dead?
Upon hearing the news, Wu Ming was stunned and paled, saying in disbelief.
However, at this moment, Wu Ming kept recalling the subtle details he had overlooked when he returned to the camp last night.
The Huang clan members bustled about, their tents tattered and broken...
All these circumstances pointed to one fact: a fierce battle must have taken place here!
Unfortunately, after the thrilling battle last night, Wu Ming and his companions were all injured.
That's why Wu Ming, who usually never misses any clues even at the slightest sign of trouble, failed to notice anything amiss last night.
Yes, not long after I led people to provide support, misfortune befell our Huang clan.
The passing of Elder Xiong Lin is a great loss to our Huang clan!
I have already passed this message on to the clan leader. In the next few days, our Huang clan will try to minimize unnecessary outings. We will discuss this further after receiving a reply from the clan leader.
Huang Mingxuan's voice was filled with endless sorrow and solemnity.
