"Wahahahaha"

After being stunned for a few seconds Snowball started laughing like an idiot.

"Mine! Mine! It's all mine!" With red eyes, Snowball dived into the pile of resources and started throwing everything inside his Space Vault.

"High-grade Mortal Herb? Take it!"

"Low-grade Mortal herb? Take it"

"Mid-grade Earth herb? Take it!"

Snowball took everything regardless of their level and stuffed it into his Space Vault.

There were so many herbs that he stopped shouting their level and started working hard as a bee.

In less than five minutes he stuffed every herb in his Space Vault. Although he cleared every herb there were still some objects inside the room.

"Stones? I remember that Robert likes to eat this! So I will take this too."

Saying this he stuffed all the ores inside his Space Vault. 

"Finally! All things are cleared! Now I can go back." Snowball wiped the sweat on his forehead and intended to leave.

But he noticed a door-like outline on the ground. Seeing this he stopped abruptly.

"Eh? Another room? Are there more resources here?" Snowball's eyes became red as he wanted to see the situation behind the room beneath this room.

….

Just as Snowball was busy with his treasure hunt things were tense inside the cave where White Fang and others were staying.

Previously Old Panther and Fat Panther rushed into the cave aggressively intending to clash with White Fang and others.

But things changed when Old Panther saw White Fang and Menna. He did not say a single word to them and started beating his son.

"Damn it! You bastard, how can you treat our distinguished guests like this?"

"Not only you did place them in such a shabby cave but did not even give them any refreshments? Huh?"

"Where are your manners, bastard?" 

Seeing this violent turn of events everyone around them was stunned. The Foundation Realm Panther who was in charge of monitoring were dumb speechless.

'Has the sun risen from the west?'

'This Old bastard is beating the fatty? In front of others?'

'What happened exactly?'

Not to mention them, The Fat Panther was most depressed as he didn't know what happened exactly.

Weren't we here for revenge? Then why are you beating me?

"Father stop! I am your only son…"

"How can you be so cruel to me!... Don't tell me you got another son? That's why you want to abandon me!"

"Damn it! I knew this would happen from the start! After your mother died you took 30 female panthers in your harem!"

Listening to him everyone gasped in surprise as the way they looked at Old Panther became weird.

30 female panthers? 

This Panther looks old but he is more energetic than young people!

Listening to his son's nonsense the Old Panther almost fainted in anger.

This bastard caused him so much trouble. Previously he thought that there are some Foundation realm spiritual beasts who are making trouble here.

So he wanted to use his cultivation to bully them but once he saw White Fang and others he instantly changed his stance.

Two Peak Core Formation realm! Two Foundation Realms!

Damn it! This lineup is enough to destroy him hundred times over and over again. And his stupid son wanted to take revenge against them? 

For the first time, Old Panther wanted to slap his son to death. This little bastard not only brought disaster to their Panther Tribe but he even ruined his reputation in front of others.

"Drag him outside! And beat him for me!" The Old Partner howled at the Foundation realm panthers who were watching the show outside.

"Y-Yes!" The Panther shuttered and replied as they dragged the fat panther outside. In their heart, they were jumping with joy.

'Haha, I wanted to beat this fatty for a long time! Now I finally have a chance!'

…..

After the Fat Panther was dragged outside the Old Panther looked at everyone inside the cave especially White Fang and Menna.

"Haha, distinguished guests! Sorry because of my idiotic son you had to suffer." The Old Panther was very polite to White Fang and others.

"No, it's fine. Children tend to make mistakes." White Fang acted like a mature person and said generously.

"Thank you for your understanding! Since you are here I will show hospitality to the Panther tribe."

"Men! Go bring the best meat and fruits inside our tribe!" The Old Panther was overjoyed after listening to White Fang and he ordered some people to bring food.

White Fang and others were feeling comfortable with this treatment. Especially Valor.

Not long ago he was at odds with this tribe but now he is being treated as a distinguished guest.

This difference…. He likes it!

After arranging the matters of Food the Old Panther looked at White Fang and others and asked cautiously, " May I ask what your purpose for the visit is…?"

This time White Fang did not reply but Celli opened her mouth and said, "We are here for sightseeing."

"As you know, since Marshal Crocodile started the event, everyone has gone frenzy as they kept looking for Desolate beasts."

"Since we were free we decided to look for Desolate beasts as well and we came across your tribe." 

Hearing this The old Panther nodded in understanding. Indeed currently everyone in the Inner Forest is looking for Desolate beasts. They are the same.

But unlike those who tried to kill the desolate beasts, many people maintained a neutral stance as they only tracked the desolate beasts and did not take action against them.

They were waiting for someone to test the water first. They should know whether or not the reward is worth the effort.

Most of the powerful tribes have similar thoughts as no one took actions against the desolate beasts, only weak and unaffiliated spiritual beasts took actions against the desolate beasts in need of resources.

And these people fall in this category.

The Old Panther looked at them thoughtfully as he had an idea. If this idea worked then he can get great rewards but if it fails then things would get ugly….

But according to his calculation, the benefits outweigh the risks so it's worth a try…

Thinking of this, The Old Panther smiled and said, "You are looking for resources, right?"

Hearing him all of them were surprised, Dis this guy know about their plan?

Thinking that all of them were on guard against the Old Panther.

But simpleminded White Fang nodded without any hesitation.

Seeing White Fang nodding the Fat panther was even more delighted.

'Haha, In this way it would be easier for me to use them...'

"How about this? I have an offer for you!"

"Since you are hunting for Desolate beasts the. You will go to the Marshal Crocodile for the reward right?"

Everyone nodded after hearing him.

"My suggestion is that instead of going to Marshal Crocodile for a reward you can come to me!" The Old Panther finally showed his true purpose.

Simply, he wanted to use White Fang and others as tools. White Fang and others will kill Desolate beasts and he will give them some simple resources.

Then he would exchange those desolate beasts and get a reward from the Marshal Crocodile and earn profit in the end.

This plan is good. In this way, he would continue to use White Fang and others to collect resources and strengthen himself until he reached the Nascent Soul Realm.

Once he reached the Nascent Soul Realm he would subdue these four at that time the strength of the Panther tribe would grow considerably…

This Old Panther is indeed old and experienced. He can come up with such a sly plan in a short period.

The Old Panther knew that empty words will not attract them so he decided to throw a bait that they could never refuse.

"You two are at Peak of the Core Formation realm, right? You don't have a way to enter the Nascent Soul Realm right?"

White Fang and Menna looked at Old Panther weirdly and nodded in the end.

"If you work for me I will allow you to enter Nascent Soul Realm!" The Old Panther decided to reveal his trump card as he looked at them and said, "You must be thinking that I am bluffing, right?"

Everyone looked at him and said nothing but their eyes revealed everything. They didn't believe him.

"So let me ask you a question, Have you heard about the Nether Lotus? A Top Grade Earth spiritual herb?"

Hearing this name, Menna's face changed as there was an obvious look of surprise on her face.

"If you consume the seeds of the lotus then the chance of entering the Nascent Soul Realm would be increased! And I have this Nether Lotus!" This is Old Panther's trump card. With this, he has the hope to rope them if someone wants to enter Nascent soul Realm them this Nether Lotus is of great assistance.

But will he truly give them seeds of Nether Lotus? Hehe, there is no need to ask such a stupid question….
