Using the caress, Wang Xiao rubbed his arm against the foot of the Silver Shadow Leopard, and his sleeve was immediately dyed red.
The blood did not show any signs of drying up. It was obvious that it had just been stained. Wang Xiao’s expression became even uglier, and he stopped stroking the Silver Shadow Leopard.
Sensing this, the Silver Shadow Leopard also stopped snoring and opened its eyes again to look at Wang Xiao. Logically speaking, silver-quality exotic beasts did not have intelligence, but its eyes seemed to be filled with doubt.
Seeing the Silver Shadow Leopard’s gaze, Wang Xiao did not know what to think at that time. He directly pointed at the blood on the foot of the Silver Shadow Leopard and asked, “Where did you get this?”
After saying that, Wang Xiao realized that something was wrong. The Silver Shadow Leopard did not understand his words, so it was probably useless to ask.
However, to Wang Xiao’s surprise, after hearing his question, the Silver Shadow Leopard suddenly stood up and turned around to look in a certain direction.
Wang Xiao subconsciously looked over and discovered that other than the dense vegetation, there was only Li Tongfu’s headless corpse.
A second later, Wang Xiao suddenly realized that he might have guessed correctly. The silver light that instantly killed Li Tongfu just now was the Silver Shadow Leopard in front of him!
However, could a peak silver level three mutated beast really instantly kill a level five lord?
Puzzlement surged into his heart, but Wang Xiao was not in the mood to think too much about it. No matter how the Silver Shadow Leopard did it just now, it was still an extremely dangerous mutated beast!
Bang!
The figure of the [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon] appeared out of thin air and directly blocked between Wang Xiao and the [Silver Shadow Leopard]. Then, Wang Xiao summoned the [Ice Thunder Horn Wolf] and jumped onto the wolf’s back, turning around and heading straight for the base!
A distance of 30 meters was only a leap for the Ice Thunder Horn Wolf.
Tang Longji and Wu Yan were watching the commotion on the wall. The two of them were stunned when Wang Xiao suddenly summoned the mutated beasts. By the time they reacted, the Ice Thunder Horn Wolf had already landed in the base.
“Be on guard!”
Tang Longji shouted and instantly summoned ten gold level three [Giant Pitcher]. At the same time, Wu Yan also summoned a magic staff. A few gorgeous strange flames burned around him.
However, after the two of them were prepared, they did not discover any danger. Other than the [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon] and the [Silver Shadow Leopard] staring at each other not far away, everything else looked quite normal.
The two of them looked at each other in confusion. Tang Longji raised his head slightly and asked, “Wang Xiao! What happened just now?”
“It killed Li Tongfu!”
Wang Xiao jumped off the wolf’s back and jumped onto the wall again. He handed the blood-stained sleeve to the two of them. “That Silver Shadow Leopard has blood on its claws! That’s what we saw just now!”
Hearing this, Wu Yan immediately revealed a puzzled expression. “What are you talking about? Senior Tang just saw that this mutated beast is only silver level three. How can it instantly kill a level five lord?”
Tang Longji also asked in confusion, “Even if it’s the same one, it clearly knows you. Why would it suddenly attack us? Could you have seen wrongly, or was it fighting other mutated beasts just now?”
“Impossible!”
Wang Xiao said with a solemn expression, “It was the one who killed Li Tongfu! It has already admitted it!”
“It… admitted it?”
Tang Longji almost couldn’t help but laugh. “It spoke to you?”
Hearing the ridicule in Tang Longji’s tone, Wang Xiao immediately became angry. “Uncle Tang! Do I look like I’m joking? Can’t you believe me for once?”
“Alright, alright, alright. I believe you!”
Tang Longji agreed repeatedly as if he was coaxing a child. He paused and asked, “Then what should we do now? Kill it directly?”
“Well…”
Wang Xiao was suddenly speechless because he had not thought of what to do.
It was only right and proper to pay with one’s life.
However, looking at the [Silver Shadow Leopard] playing with the [Dark
Swamp Crocodile Dragon], Wang Xiao suddenly had a strange thought. The [Silver Shadow Leopard] was not a violent and bloodthirsty beast. Even if it really killed Li Tongfu, it probably had its reasons.
Seeing that Wang Xiao did not make a decision after a long time, Wu Yan suddenly said, “There’s something I didn’t have the time to say just now.
Perhaps it can help you a little.”
Wang Xiao frowned. “What is it?”
“When I first entered the secret realm, I saw Li Tongfu take out a purple quality skill card.”
Wu Yan looked at Li Tongfu’s corpse in the distance and said indifferently, “At that time, I thought that one of you was injured. Later, I realized that something was wrong. However, he was already dead at that time, so I didn’t say anything.”
“Skill Card?”
The two of them were confused. Wang Xiao simply asked, “You didn’t say anything just now because he died. Now, you suddenly mention it… What are you trying to say?”
“I don’t know either.”
Wu Yan shrugged indifferently and then looked at Wang Xiao meaningfully. “When I saw the way you guys interacted just now, I felt that this mutated beast’s nature was not bad. It might have another reason for killing Li Tongfu.”
“Another reason?”
Wang Xiao was even more stunned now. However, when he thought of the skill card Wu Yan had mentioned just now, he seemed to understand something in a daze.
“Senior Tang. ”
Wu Yan looked at Tang Longji. “I want to go over and take a look. Can I trouble you to cover me?”
“No problem!”
Tang Longji agreed. Then, with a thought, the ten [Giant Pitchers] outside the wall immediately prepared to throw.
Almost at the same time, Wu Yan summoned his soldier. It was a gold level two [Flame Skeleton War Horse]. Then, he jumped down from the wall and landed on the burning horse.
Seeing this scene, Wang Xiao also jumped off the wall. The Silver Shadow Leopard’s eyes lit up and it immediately ran towards the Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon and rubbed against him intimately.
However, Wang Xiao ignored the [Silver Shadow Leopard] and followed Wu Yan to Li Tongfu’s corpse. As expected, he saw a skill card hidden in the corpse’s hand.
[Flowing Poison Shadow Arrow (Purple)]
[Usage level: 4+]
[Skill Effect: Quietly shoot ten Poison Shadow Arrows. After hitting the target, it will cause negative effects such as bleeding and poisoning. The power will stack according to the number of arrows that hit the target.]
Wu Yan frowned and hissed. “This is a very troublesome skill weapon… Because it doesn’t have a physical body, it can’t be pulled out after being shot. If it’s not treated in time, the best outcome is to exhaust all the potions and die from the poison. ”
This skill card could only be used by level four lords at least, so this was the first time Wang Xiao had heard of it. He was stunned for a moment before asking in confusion, “This skill seems to take some time to be fatal? Can it be used for self-defense?”
Wu Yan thought for a moment and shook his head. “This skill is extremely hidden. It’s usually used for sneak attacks. Li Tongfu is a level five lord. If he wants to protect himself, he probably has suitable skill cards.”
Wang Xiao revealed a puzzled expression. “Then why did he use this?”
“I don’t know.”
Wu Yan shook his head very honestly and stared at Li Tongfu’s corpse for a while. He suddenly thought of something and looked at Wang Xiao.. “Where were you standing when the accident happened just now?”
