Magic Doctor CEO Lady's Humble Husband (Fade Chen)
Chapter 1720

In the cave, five young men and women, each wearing uniforms, could be seen. Positive energy was emanating from their bodies, indicating that they were likely disciples of some martial arts clan.

At this moment, the five of them were gritting their teeth as they activated their positive energy, attacking a wild beast with gray fur desperately in the depths of the cave.

Looking over, Fade fixed his eyes on it. He found that the wild beast was about the size of a wolf or dog, but its appearance was like a cat. Its eyes were a shining blue, and its sharp claws were covered with blood stains.

Obviously, the five disciples were fighting against it.

He focused his vision even more and it went deeper into the cave. Fade saw that in a small pool in the depths of the cave, there was a one-foot- high plant. The plant was blooming with white flowers, looking like white snowflakes.

The whole plant was emitting rich spiritual energy, which made the energy in the cave much denser than that outside.

Seeing this, Fade's heart skipped a beat. "That, that's Frozen Snow Flower, a Heaven Level herb. No wonder the spiritual energy here is so dense. A Frozen Snow Flower is growing here!"

Heaven Level herbs were incomparably precious. It was natural for these clan disciples to want to get their hands on it after discovering it. However, there were usually all sorts of guardian beasts beside these precious herbs.

These guardian beasts were born with the spiritual herbs to protect them from being damaged and destroyed. As for the guardian beast itself, it could also stay next to the spiritual herb to absorb the medicinal effects of the spiritual herb, which would make its strength increase.

This Frozen Snow Flower had grown to an extraordinary quality, and the guardian beast's strength was also very strong. It was almost comparable to an ordinary early stage Earth Level martial artist. Therefore, although these five young disciples were all martial artists at the advanced stage of Black Level and could be considered quite good, they were clearly no match against the attack of the guardian beast.

Even though they had managed to injure the guardian beast relying on their superiority in numbers and weapons, the damage taken by them hadn't been small either. If this continued on, they probably wouldn't be able to hold on for three or four hours.

Fade was still thinking about whether he should take action or not.

All of a sudden, one of the five young men turned his head and shouted, "Who's there? Get out!"

It turned out that Fade had inadvertently exposed himself while his attention was focused on the Frozen Snow Flower.

However, since he had been discovered, he did not hide anymore. There was no need to do so.

Therefore, Fade and Quin stood out.

The expressions of the five young people changed dramatically when they saw that someone was approaching, and their eyes were full of vigilance and hostility.

"Who are you?" The man who had just shouted said. At this moment, he was blocking the attack of the guardian beast while shouting at Fade.

Fade responded faintly, "We are tourists who came here to travel. We came here by accident."

"Tourists!" The man's eyes sank and he looked doubtful.

At this time, another woman with a long sword looked over and said, "Baylor, they are lying. We have set up a formation in this place, so ordinary people can't break in at all. Even if they do, we will be alerted when they come to the cave. However, they came here without a sound, so they must also be martial artists."

With that being said, they all became alert and looked at Fade and Quin.

Fade shrugged his shoulders and didn't deny it. He said, "You're right. We're indeed martial artists. We came here to investigate a case. I didn't expect to see such a good thing, which is the Frozen Snow Flower."

"You know the Frozen Snow Flower!" Hearing him say its name, their expressions became even more vicious.

A fierce look flashed in the woman's eyes, who was holding a long sword, and she said, "They must be here to rob the Frozen Snow Flower. We can't let them succeed. Let's kill them."

While speaking, the woman with the long sword whistled and was about to rush over.

Seeing this, Fade snorted and said, "I mean no harm. If you continue to be so reckless, then don't blame me for being rude."

At this moment, Baylor Hu, who was obviously the leader of the five, shouted, "Ezra, come back now.

We can't hold on any longer."

Hearing this, Erza's eyes showed a hint of fierceness. She glared at Fade, but had no choice but to go back to fight against the guardian beast.

However, in such a short time, the guardian beast had left blood stains on the remaining four people, which made it even more difficult for the five people to deal with it.

They also had to worry about Fade and Quin who were behind them, as they were worried they might suddenly make a move and snatch it. For a moment, the pressure on them was doubled.

At the thought of this, Baylor quickly turned his head and said to Fade, "The man over there, we are disciples of Ice Lake Clan in East Lake District. We should follow the first-come-first-serve rule. We found the Frozen Snow Flower first. If you want to grab it, our Ice Lake Clan will not let you go.

Obviously, Baylor wanted to use the name of the clan to threaten Fade and prevent him from robbing it.

However, what he didn't know was that the Ice Lake Clan was really not strong enough in Fade's eyes. After thinking for a while, Fade remembered vaguely that it was a Black Level force in East Lake District. The overall strength of Ice Lake Clan was about the same as the Sun family in Dragonville, Cloud Clan, and Third River Clan. The guardian's strength was at about the early stage to the middle stage of Earth Level. For Fade, it was not worth mentioning.

Although he did not take Ice Lake Clan seriously, he would not take others' treasures for no reason.

Hence, he said, "You found the treasure first. If you can get it first, I won't take it. I understand this rule."

"Since you understand, then that's the best outcome for us all!" Baylor said.

However, Fade changed his tone and shook his head, saying, "But with your strength, it will not be easy to defeat the guardian beast and get the Frozen Snow Flower."

Baylor's face turned pale, but he then snorted and said, "You don't have to worry about it. We have our own way."

"Is that so? Then I won't interfere!" Fade did as he said. Bringing Quin with him, they took a few steps back and looked as if he was watching a show from behind.

Seeing that Fade really had no intention of robbing them, Baylor focused his attention on dealing with the guardian beast.

"Attack with full force. Try io kill this beast quickly!"

As soon as he gave the order, they attacked fiercely, leaving more blood stains on the guardian beast's body.

However, the guardian beast was also enraged, and its attacks became even more fierce. Its speed was faster than before, and if the steel-like claws were to gently scratch their bodies, a piece of their flesh would be torn off.

Blood dripped from their bodies, and their injuries worsened even more.
