22: Chapter 22 Gu Yuexi's Killing Intent

This Chen Hao, repeatedly trying to get her attention in front of her like a fly, had already made her feel incredibly annoyed.

And now he was actually pulling something like this.

Gu Yuexi's mood had reached the point of extreme irritation.

Should she... just deal with these annoying bugs once and for all?

In any case, this was the Black Forest, and it was perfectly normal for a few students to go missing every year.

Given her current strength, plus Chu Sheng's assistance, dealing with these few "remnants" who were already injured would at most just take a bit of effort.

Chen Hao's Wind Blade Wolf was now as listless as a stray dog and no longer posed any threat.

However, just at this moment.

A series of footsteps came from the nearby woods.

Immediately after, a group of five people walked out of the forest.

These five people were all wearing uniform black combat suits and exuded a murderous aura; one look told you they were professionals who had spent years licking blood from the edge of a blade.

Leading them was a burly, cold-faced middle-aged man.

Chu Sheng looked over subconsciously, and [Blood Food Tracking] instantly provided the information.

[Hu Feng, Rank 2 Peak Warrior, Qi and Blood value approximately 1987 points.]

A Rank 2 Peak Warrior?

Chu Sheng was slightly startled; he could clearly feel that the Qi and Blood inside this middle-aged man were on a completely different level from any Rank 1 Warrior he had seen before!

If the Qi and Blood of a Rank 1 Warrior were like a 100-watt light bulb, bright and dazzling.

Then the Qi and Blood inside this man was like a small, raging boiler!

That power of Qi and Blood was not only vast in quantity but also more condensed, purer, and filled with an explosive sense of power!

"Rank 2 Peak..."

Chu Sheng was secretly shocked, and at the same time, gained a clearer understanding of the power levels in this world.

So the gap between Rank 1 and Rank 2 was this large!

A Rank 2 Peak actually had nearly 2000 Qi and Blood...

Chu Sheng felt bitter; his own Qi and Blood of less than one hundred really wasn't much to look at!

These people were clearly a professional squad from a hunting guild in Jiangcheng, likely just passing by and coming over to take a look after noticing movement here.

However, their appearance immediately scared Chen Hao and his group silly.

"It's over! It's over! We've really run into the real owners this time!" Chen Hao's mind went "buzz" and blanked out.

Damn it, this professional aura, this powerful strength—this was definitely the elite squad that hunted the pig herd!

Caught red-handed stealing, there was no way to clear his name even if he jumped into the Yellow River!

A strong desire to survive caused Chen Hao's brain to reboot after one second of crashing, and he instantly made what could be called a "genius" decision.

He suddenly extended his finger, pointed at Gu Yuexi, squeezed an expression of extreme indignation and righteousness onto his face, and shouted: "Seniors! You've come just in time!"

"This woman! She wants to embezzle your prey!"

"The few of us couldn't stand it, so we came over to persuade her, but she wouldn't listen! You must uphold justice for us!"

Gu Yuexi: "???"

Chu Sheng: "???"

The human and the mosquito were both stunned on the spot.

Are you kidding me, bro?

You motherf*cker... you really are courting death, aren't you?!

This skill of the villain filing a complaint first really is masterful!

"???"

That hunting squad was even more confused.

The leader, Hu Feng, frowned, glanced at the pig carcasses on the ground, then looked at Chen Hao, and finally swept them with a gaze as if looking at idiots.

"Sick in the head."

He spat out these two words indifferently, couldn't be bothered to pay attention to the farce of this group of brats, and with a wave of his hand, led his team members to continue walking out of the forest without even turning his head.

For them, there were more important things to do right now; they had no time to deal with such trivial matters.

Chen Hao and his group were left stunned on the spot by the words "sick in the head" and that look of looking at an idiot, unable to react for a moment.

What's going on?

They... just left like this?

They weren't going to pursue it?

Meanwhile, Gu Yuexi and Chu Sheng were staring fixedly at the direction the hunting squad had left in, the eyes of both the human and the mosquito filled with doubt and uncertainty.

Just at the moment the hunting squad passed by them, the human and the mosquito simultaneously sensed something amiss!

An extremely rich aura of blood from a high-bloodline beast was emanating from those team members!

That aura was even purer than that of the Spirit Green Snake from before!

What was going on?!

Gu Yuexi's heart was greatly shocked.

Did they hunt a high-bloodline beast?

Impossible! A high-bloodline beast, once mature, is at least a Rank 7 existence; how could a squad with only a Rank 2 Peak at best possibly manage that?

Could it be a cub?

But a cub of a high-bloodline beast would absolutely never leave its mother's side before reaching maturity!

Unless...

A startling possibility emerged in Gu Yuexi's mind.

That beast, something happened to it?

Was it seriously injured for some reason? Did its strength drop?

Regardless... there was a huge opportunity hidden behind this!

Blood from a high-bloodline beast was exactly what she needed most right now!

Chu Sheng was also somewhat excited at this moment; blood from a high-bloodline beast was also a great supplement for him!

That Spirit Green Snake from before was just a cub, and he had absorbed dozens of points of Qi and Blood in one night!

If he could absorb blood from a mature high-bloodline beast... wouldn't that be absolutely amazing?!

Meanwhile, Chen Hao and his group over there.

After seeing that professional hunting squad leave without looking back, they looked at each other, and could all see the confusion in each other's eyes.

Immediately after, a wave of wild joy slowly welled up in their hearts.

"They... left?"

"Holy crap! They really left! They didn't even want the pigs?!"

"I get it! They must look down on these low-level beast carcasses and don't want them! We're rich! We're rich!!"

"Holy sh*t! Holy sh*t! We've hit the jackpot this time!"

The excitement of the group having survived a disaster instantly transformed into endless greed.

They excitedly rubbed their hands, their eyes filled with intense heat as they looked at the pile of pig carcasses.

Chen Hao was also wild with joy. He waved his hand, completely ignoring Gu Yuexi who was still standing there, and shouted: "What are you still standing there for? Hurry up! Everyone carry one! We can complete our mission and also make a big profit!"

In his view, Gu Yuexi was now just an irrelevant background character. Since even the real owners didn't want these pig carcasses, what could she, a crazy woman with a questionable brain, possibly do?

Those classmates also responded immediately and excitedly rushed toward the pile of pig carcasses.

"..."

Gu Yuexi and Chu Sheng watched this scene silently.

The human and the mosquito exchanged a look, and as if they had a tacit understanding, they reached a consensus.

Just because they wanted the blood of a high-bloodline beast didn't mean they didn't want these pig carcasses!

"[Zerg Space]! Open!"

Chu Sheng moved his thoughts, and directly unleashed those five hundred minions from the [Zerg Space] once again, without any warning!

Bzzzzzz—!

Swish—!

A black cloud of insects, like a bursting flood, instantly enveloped the heads of Chen Hao and his group!
