When the snowstorm arrived, nobody in the village could react in time. It was only when the howling wind and snowstorm enveloped everything that they realized something was wrong.
"What's going on?"
A black-haired woman who looked to be in her thirties raised her head and asked sternly as she looked around. She was the head of the Four-leaf Clan, Four-leaf Zhen Ye. She was also a powerful Magician. However, even she had no idea what was going on.
"Lord Zhen Ye, we seem to be under attack!"
The Four-leaf Clan member who came to report looked panic-stricken. It was as if he was saying something that even he himself did not want to believe.
"Attack?"
Four-leaf Zhen Ye narrowed her eyes when she heard this absurd answer. A hint of confusion appeared on her face.
Truth be told, the Four-leaf Clan was the most mysterious clan among the Ten Mentor Clans. Each of the Ten Mentor Clans had different rules, and it was the same for the Four-leaf Clan. As the darkness of the darkness, the Four-leaf Clan was hidden in the most unknown depths. Nobody knew where their base was. According to the family rules of the Four-leaf Clan, children were not allowed to use the Four-leaf name before they were officially recognized.
Moreover, the Four-leaf Clan was quite powerful. This was the base of the Four-leaf Clan, and there were countless barriers set up here. Who was it that dared to attack the Four-leaf Clan here?
"Who is it? Is it a Magician from Daya? Or a Soviet Magician? "
"I, I don't know …"
"You don't know?"
Four-leaf Zhen Ye glared at her subordinate when she heard this answer. Even if she did not know the identity of the other party, she should be able to come to a general conclusion based on the magic pattern. 'Is the current Four-leaf Clan full of trash like this?'
However, before Four-leaf Zhen Ye could reprimand her subordinate, someone hurriedly rushed in.
"Lord Zhen Ye, please leave immediately. The line of defense has been breached. The enemy will be here soon!"
"Who is the enemy?"
Four-leaf Zhen Ye's expression darkened as she looked at her subordinate who was just as pale as her subordinate.
"Who dares to attack the Four-leaf Clan?"
"No, it's not a human. The enemy isn't a human …"
"What? Speak clearly! "
"It's a dead person! A dead person that can't be killed! Lord Zhen Ye, that's not a human … "
"What nonsense are you talking about!"
When Four-leaf True Night saw that he could not get any information from his subordinate, he hastily walked out of the room and went to the railing to look around. The Four Leaves Clan's mansion was located at the highest level in the center of the village. Naturally, they could see everything around them clearly. However, when Four-leaf True Night walked out of the room and saw the scene before her, she finally understood why her subordinates were so incoherent.
Four-leaf True Night had thought this was an attack on the Four-leaf Tribe.
But in reality, it was a war.
As far as the eye could see, the whole village, including the surrounding mountains, was sealed by the white snow. Countless strange monsters crawled out of the frozen ground. Their dark and empty eyes burned with cold flames, and their mouths let out roars of hatred and hatred towards the living. There were hundreds of them, maybe even more.
Undead, Banshees, Gargoyles, Frost Dragons, and all sorts of creatures that could not possibly exist in the real world appeared before Four-leaf Zhen Ye, causing her to turn pale with fright.
"What … the … hell … is this?"
As the head of the Four-leaf Tribe, Four-leaf True Night had seen many scenes. She even thought she had seen hell before. But now, what appeared in front of her was a scene that was far more terrifying than the hell Four-leaf True Night had imagined. She could see the Four-leaf Family's subordinates desperately resisting the attack of these monsters. However, the powerful magic that allowed the Four-leaf Tribe to gain a firm foothold in the Ten Teachers Clan was meaningless in front of these monsters. No matter how many monsters they killed, the ones behind them would keep coming.
The Banshees laughed shrilly as they grabbed the struggling enemies and absorbed their souls. The Gargoyles, on the other hand, grabbed the unprepared enemies that could not escape in time and tore them into pieces.
This was not magic!
Although this scene was very similar to the scenes depicted in many fantasy novels, Four-leaf True Night felt a sense of absurdity at this moment.
This was not magic at all!
The magic used in this world, whether it was ancient magic or modern magic, could never reach this level. Indeed, in the early 21st century, there were often such fantasy-themed entertainment works, but they were just entertainment at the end of the day! That was just a fantasy. Even the ancient magicians could not control the undead army like they did in their fantasies!
So what was she seeing? Was it an illusion?
"Roar —!!!"
A deafening roar shook her eardrums. Four-leaf True Night raised her head and saw a Humerus Wyrm descending from the sky and landing right in front of her. The Four-leaf Family's house collapsed under the Humerus Wyrm's feet. The Humerus Wyrm stared coldly at Four-leaf True Night in front of it. The blue soul fire emitted from its pitch-black eye sockets seemed to have penetrated Four-leaf True Night's body. At that moment, she felt as if her blood had frozen.
This was not an illusion!
At that moment, Four-leaf True Night's instincts as a Magician began to move. She raised her hands, and the power of magic began to manifest. Countless light spheres appeared out of thin air and wrapped around the Humerus Wyrm. Then, rays of light erupted from the light spheres, intertwining to form a large net that exploded toward the Humerus Wyrm.
This was Four-leaf True Night's most powerful trump card, Meteor Cluster. It was a powerful magic that could cause harm to the opponent as long as the opponent was not 100% transparent. This was also Four-leaf True Night's trump card as the head of the Four-leaf Family and the most powerful Magician. It could shoot unstoppable rays of light from all directions at the same time. No Magician could block this move.
However, it was useless.
The rays of light hit the Humerus Wyrm's body, but apart from breaking the remains on the surface of the Humerus Wyrm, it did nothing. On the contrary, the Humerus Wyrm did not react at all. It only shook its body as if it had been bitten by a mosquito.
Then, it opened its mouth and took in a deep breath.
The Four-leaf True Night's experience saved her life at this moment. When she regained her senses, her body was already falling backward uncontrollably. At the same time, the icy torrent that sprayed out roared like a landslide, razing everything in front of her to the ground. Then, it froze everything into a block of ice.
"Ahh … Ahh …"
Four-leaf True Night moaned in pain as she fell to the ground. Half of her body was completely frozen, and everything as far as the eye could see was covered in ice. At the same time, Four-leaf True Night saw a pitch-black shadow slowly walking toward her.
"Who … Who are you …?"
Four-leaf True Night raised her head, trying to see the attacker's face clearly. However, all she could see was a body clad in pitch-black armor. The attacker's face was also covered by a black helmet, so she could not see anything. Blue light shone in his black eye sockets.
The attacker did not reply to Four-leaf True Night's question. He merely raised the sword in his hand and aimed the tip at the woman in front of him.
The next moment, she felt a heart-wrenching pain.
Invisible chains shot out and bound Four-leaf Zhen Ye's body tightly. A shrill cry of pain rang in the air as Zhen Ye's smoke-like soul was pulled out. Zhen Ye's soul tumbled into the sword.
Immediately after, Four-leaf True Night's body fell to the ground like a tattered doll.
"Well, it looks like everything is going well now."
Fangzheng retracted Frostmourne. He nodded in satisfaction as he looked at the Four-leaf Village that had been razed to the ground by the Calamity Army.
Fangzheng was not worried that the world would stop him from attacking the Four-leaf Family, because in a sense, this was an obstacle that the protagonist should face. This was evident from the fact that the protagonist in wuxia novels would often have his family destroyed and his family torn apart.
Therefore, Fangzheng's actions were not stopped by the world. Obviously, the world also wanted to see if Si Boda would show his side as the "protagonist" after experiencing all this.
This was another reason why Fangzheng attacked the Four-leaf Family. Although from a student's point of view, he had completely stolen all the limelight from Si Boda, Si Boda still had the official title of "King of the Special Forces". This was also why the world did not immediately give up on Si Boda.
But this time was different. Fangzheng attacked the Four-leaf Family, killed the Four-leaf Family Master, and razed the Four-leaf Family's base camp to the ground. The Four-leaf elites were almost completely wiped out. This also meant that the Four-leaf Family would completely lose its status as one of the Ten Teachers Families. This matter would naturally alarm the Ten Teachers Clan and the military. Under such circumstances, Si Boda was the main character, and he was also a member of the Four Leaves Clan, and he was also a member of the military. If he couldn't come up with something that would satisfy the world …
Fangzheng was certain that Si Boda's death was a done deal.
'Now, let's see how Si Boda, as the protagonist, will react.'
At this thought, Fangzheng sneered and turned to leave.
Only the remains of the Four-leaf Village remained silent amidst the cold snow.
The news of the Four-leaf Family's destruction spread throughout the Ten Teachers Families within a day.
Naturally, this was not because the Four-leaf Family wanted to keep it a secret. It was because Fangzheng did not mind blowing things up and directly sent the news to the other nine families of the Ten Teachers Families. Although everyone thought this was too ridiculous at first, it was precisely because of this that they hurriedly sent people to investigate. When they saw the Four-leaf True Night's corpse and the destruction of the Four-leaf Family's hidden village, the Ten Teachers Families were in an uproar.
The Four-leaf Family was the family with the most mysteries among the Ten Teachers Families. Because of this, people kept a respectful distance from them. On the other hand, this was also because the Four-leaf Family's strength was enough to make everyone wary. However, even so, the Four-leaf Family was still annihilated. Even the head of the family, Four-leaf True Night, and all the elites were killed.
To the Japanese magic community, this was undoubtedly an earthquake.
Almost as soon as the news spread throughout the Ten Teachers Families, Si Boda and Si Boshenxue also received the news.
"… Is the information reliable?"
Looking at the figure on the screen, Si Boshenxue's face turned pale. The other party was from the branch family. The reason why they sent him to contact Si Boshenxue was because the main members of the Four-leaf Family were almost all dead, so only the branch family could make the decision.
"Yes, we saw Lady Four-leaf True Night's corpse with our own eyes. Not only her, but most of the Four-leaf Family members were also killed in the attack. Only a few who were not in the village at the time escaped."
"…"
Si Boshenxue and Si Boda exchanged glances. Then, Si Boda also looked at the screen and said.
"So, why are you looking for Deep Snow?"
"Right now, the Four-leaf Family is like a group of dragons without a leader. We hope that Miss Deep Snow can return to the Four-leaf Family and take up the responsibility of the family head."
"… I'm really surprised. I didn't expect you to give up."
Hearing this, Si Boda's eyes revealed a trace of coldness. Of course, he understood why the other party said that. Usually, these branch families would fight over the position of the family head. But now, they actually decided to let Si Boshenxue be the family head. This was obviously not out of kindness. It was also not because of the blood relationship between Si Boshenxue and Four-leaf True Night. The main reason was because they were worried. After all, the attacker's background was unknown. No one knew whether the attacker came for Four-leaf True Night or the Four-leaf Family. But no matter what, under the current circumstances, the position of the Four-leaf Family Head was simply a hot potato. No one wanted to take it.
So, letting Si Boshenxue take the position of the family head was like putting a shield in front of them.
"Apart from that, we have another suggestion."
The man on the screen didn't even look at Si Boda and looked at Si Boshenxue.
"The Four-leaf Family's vitality is greatly damaged. It's likely that they will be removed from the Ten Teachers Families. No matter what, we must protect the Four-leaf Family's reputation and status."
'To put it nicely, it's your reputation and status.'
Although Si Boshenxue thought so in her heart, she didn't say it out loud.
"So, what is your suggestion?"
"We hope that Miss Deep Snow can arrange a marriage when she takes the position of the family head."
"Marriage?"
Hearing this, Si Boshenxue's face revealed a clear expression of disgust.
"Yes, we need to ally with a strong and promising person … Miss Deep Snow, you seem to have a good relationship with that boy in your class named Kasugino, right?"
"… Huh?"
