'Oh that is good,' said Fu Xie Lan with relief. Even though Hao is just a magic beast spirit, she will feel very guilty if she harms the creature while all she gets is profit.

The little creature that was on Fu Xie Lan's shoulder suddenly jumped at Wan Lie, causing the young man to flinch in surprise.

'Don't let your guard down, that's my lady's message.' After saying that, Hao again jumped onto the shoulders of Ju Xian who was next to him, and then Xue Ning, delivering the same message.

Finished delivering the message, Hao again jumped onto Fu Xie Lan's shoulder, the creature didn't stay there. with a slow-motion, he then descended into the girl's arms and curled up in there.

'Rest, recover your energy,' said Fu Xie Lan, stroking Hao's fur.

'All right, Miss. Thank you.' The message he conveyed was so short, he deliberately did that because the length of time he communicated with people who were not his contractors would affect the amount of energy used.

While on the other hand, Wan Lie when he heard such an unfamiliar voice buzzing in his head became flustered.

He looked everywhere for the source of the sound but couldn't find anything. The only thing he encountered was the same gazes from Ju Xian and Xue Ning who at that moment also turned their heads towards him.

It seems that the two people walking next to him also heard the same thing.

"Hao..." Xue Ning squeaked.

Suddenly the three of them seemed to have an epiphany, their eyes moved and stared at the back of Fu Xie Lan who was walking in front of them.

'Is that voice Hao's?'

At that very moment, the three of them put on a wary attitude. Their eyes occasionally scanned their surroundings, and sometimes pretended to stumble only to turn their heads and see the state of the people walking behind them.

Only about a few meters again, they will enter a residential area.

"So, after here, where are you going?" Uncle Cheng asked suddenly.

"Are you going back to your village?" he added again.

"No Uncle. We want to pay a visit somewhere," Fu Xie Lan replied.

"Where? Maybe we can help you again," Uncle Cheng chuckled.

"We want to find Elder Wu Xin. It's said that he teaches people martial arts," Fu Xie Lan replied, somehow the sentence felt so fitting to answer the middle-aged man's question, faint smile was plastered on her lips behind the mask, for some reason she felt funny to herself because she had been talking nonsense since earlier.

"Wu Xin?" the leader of the hunter group seemed to be rubbing his chin as if he was remembering something. The name that the masked man beside him said was very familiar to his ears.

"Elder Wu Xin of Xanji Village?" said one person walking right behind Uncle Cheng.

"Isn't that old man already..."

"Oh hahaha, Xanji Village? You guys going there?" Uncle Cheng's laughter immediately interrupted one of his members' words.

"Are you guys not good at martial arts? Indeed, hahaha That elder is famous for his martial arts. Now, He is accepting a new college student."

"Really Uncle?"

"Yes, of course. Indeed at this time, martial arts is very necessary to take care of ourselves or other peoples."

"The world is getting crueler by the day. If you can't catch up, so get ready to sink into civilization, don't you think?" said Uncle Cheng smiling.

Previously he thought that the young people with him might be very proficient in martial arts or the like because seeing the hunt they got was not an animal that could be obtained carelessly. Turns out his guess was wrong. They are just lucky young people. In Qian Cheng's heart, he was already laughing out loud knowing that fact.

"That's right, Uncle. And one shouldn't be so quick to judge others just by hearing what they have to say," Fu Xie Lan retorted with a chuckle.

"That's right, We are very lucky to have met you and your friends," said Uncle Cheng with a smile that never left his lips.

While on the other hand, Ju Xian wants to laugh after hears that. Because The Hunter Group didn't realize that Fu Xie Lan was playing with them. Wan Lie also felt the same way, as well as Xue Ning.

As engraved in the history of Artland World. The human race is known as the weakest creature with all its stupidity and greed.

Entered the gate of a village which was only a rotten wood with the name of the village inscribed who each standing on both sides of the road.

'Hunter's Village' was the inscription engraved on the weathered wood.

From the name, Fu Xie Lan and her three friends immediately knew that most of the villagers had their main job as hunters.

And sure enough, as they expected. when entering the village, very many animals were confined in cages in everyone's home yard. Axes and arrows also hang on the outer walls of the houses, some meat still covered in blood can also be found on large tables in the front yards of several people's houses.

The sounds of various animals and the smell of blood characterize the village.

As far as the eye could see, Fu Xie Lan only encountered such a scene. Now and then he finds some people who treat the animals they hunt arbitrarily. They take the skin of some animals when the animal isn't even fully dead yet. Truly cruel.

Occasionally a roar of pain could be heard escaping from some carelessly slaughtered animals.

Seeing all that, the stomachs of the three people who were with Fu Xie Lan rumbled, feeling heartburn and Xue Ning had vomited all of her insides as she couldn't hold back everything that entered her vision.

Even Fu Xie Lan and the other three friends still treated their prey very well. Not as cruel as the people in this village.

The Hunter Village is indeed famous for its inhabitants who like to hunt and make it their main job. However, that doesn't mean that there are no more residents from other villages in the Zu kingdom who do the same.

Only, out of all the territories in the Zu kingdom, only the Hunter Village had a high population with such occupations.

The people who finished preparing the meat and all kinds of valuable things from their game then sold it to the nearest market, but more of them took it to the market which was located in the royal city because in that place the price would be very different compared to markets elsewhere. While some others, sometimes sell their prey to meat sellers with the animal's body still intact, or in other words, it has not been managed like the people in the Hunter Village do.

"Don't worry, you guys will also get used to this kind of scene," Qian Chen chuckled.

"Sorry for the inconvenience," he added.

"It's okay. We'd better hurry to your place, Uncle. It seems that my friends are not used to this kind of scene," Fu Xie Lan replied.

'Tch, your words describe as if you're used to it,' Qian Cheng thought with a smile on his face.
