A Thunderous Boom in the Night

After being tempered by Primal Force, animals had mutated. This White Fox's fur was like silk—snow-white and beautiful, wonderfully soft to the touch, and exceptionally warm.

Zhou Baiyun immediately couldn't put it down.

She handed the fox to a girl following beside her, then rose and said to Wang Teng, "I didn't expect your marksmanship to be so good. Thank you for stepping in just now. I wasn't just making empty promises—you can make one request of me."

At the end, she flashed a playful smile and added,

"But don't go too far!"

Zhou Baiyun usually carried herself with an arrogant air, so this playful expression gave her a distinctly contrasting charm.

She had evidently seen some of Wang Teng's strength, and her attitude toward him had taken a complete turn.

Heh, how quickly things changed!

"No need. It was just an insignificant effort."

Wang Teng smiled. His indifferent expression made Li Rongcheng want to tear his hair out as he roared inwardly.

"Show-off!"

"Show-off!"

"That bastard is definitely showing off!"

"Let's go!" Wang Teng called to Xu Jie and the others before taking the lead toward the Hunting Ground entrance.

He was already bored. The prey here couldn't even bring out one-third of his Gun Technique's power.

Xu Jie didn't hesitate either. He gave Li Rongcheng the middle finger and followed Wang Teng.

Zhou Baiyun's expression immediately darkened somewhat.

Sun Gaoyan said to Zhou Baiyun, "Sister Zhou, we're tired of playing, so we'll head back first. You all take your time."

Zhou Baiyun was secretly annoyed that Wang Teng had refused to give her face, but she couldn't show it. She merely nodded with a calm expression.

"Wait for me!" Yu Hao was reluctant to part with the gun in his hand, but there was no point staying alone. He hurried after them at a jog.

The four returned to the entrance and gave the guns back to the staff.

There were plenty of lounge chairs beside the outdoor pool, shaded by greenery. Before them lay sparkling mountain spring water.

Wang Teng and the others found four empty lounge chairs and lay down.

They ate chilled fruit and pastries, drank beverages,

and admired the beauties in the water. Tsk... what a life!

Xu Jie and Sun Gaoyan laughed so hard they sounded like ducks.

Yu Hao couldn't help taking a few glances, then turned away with a look of disdain and gazed at Bai Wei with devout sincerity.

"Young people really are great, so full of energy!" Wang Teng wore sunglasses, a cigarette dangling from his lips as he puffed out smoke, looking deeply world-weary.

This guy was showing off again!

And he was showing off to thin air...

Xu Jie suddenly leaned over and asked mysteriously, "Brother Wang Teng, which one do you like?"

"Me?"

Xu Jie nodded.

Wang Teng swept his gaze over them and said, "Is there even a question? Of course, the one with the best figure."

"Shameless!"

The three spoke in unison.

Wang Teng burst out laughing. Just as he looked toward the beauties, something suddenly happened that made his eyes narrow sharply.

He casually picked up a small stone from the ground and flicked it with his finger.

Whoosh!

The pebble sliced through the air and struck the salty pig hand a young man had quietly extended beneath the water.

The force and accuracy were perfectly controlled!

Perfect!!

"Ah!"

The young man let out an involuntary cry of pain. That salty pig hand snapped back as though it had been pricked by a needle.

"What's wrong?"

Bai Wei turned around and looked suspiciously at the young man.

"Oh, it's nothing, nothing. Something seemed to bite my foot just now. It startled me." He discreetly tucked his hand behind his back and gave an awkward laugh.

Bai Wei ignored him and continued playing with tiny water guns with her girlfriends. Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle...

The young man looked at the back of his hand. It was swollen and red, and the pain made him suck in a cold breath.

What had happened just now?

His face was full of confusion as he looked around, but unfortunately, he found nothing.

Wang Teng had thought that after this lesson, the young man would restrain himself.

Yet more than ten minutes later,

the guy quietly came up behind Bai Wei again and extended his salty pig hand once more.

Wang Teng frowned.

Was this never going to end?

He picked up a larger stone and flicked it again. The stone shot toward the young man with a sharp gust of wind.

This time, it wasn't aimed at the back of his hand, but directly at his crotch.

Smack!

A crisp sound rang out.

"Argh!" A pained howl followed.

The earth-shaking scream startled everyone. The young man's entire face twisted as he clutched his lower body with both hands, his body bent like a shrimp.

"What happened?"

Everyone looked toward him, and those who knew him went over to ask.

But he didn't dare make a fuss. He repeatedly waved his hands, and only after a long while did he say hoarsely, "It's nothing, nothing. Something seemed to bite me just now."

Hearing that familiar answer, Bai Wei gave him two suspicious looks.

Both times, he had stood behind her. Both times, he had cried out for no reason and claimed something had bitten him. She wasn't that stupid.

As if sensing something, Bai Wei raised her head and happened to see Wang Teng on the shore.

Wang Teng raised his brows at her and made a gesture. Bai Wei immediately understood, and her disgust for that young man surged.

After that disturbance, she lost interest in playing. She climbed out of the water and walked over to Wang Teng and the others.

She found an empty chair and sat down, drinking a beverage and chatting with them, but she did not mention what had just happened.

Time passed quickly.

Before long, night fell, and everyone lit a bonfire.

Zhou Baiyun had already instructed people to clean all the prey.

Now, plates of fresh game were brought out. Those who knew how to make Roasted Meat began showing off their skills, doing their best to impress the beauties.

With Roasted Meat and fruits and vegetables, everyone ate until their mouths were oily without feeling sick of it.

Paired with beer, the atmosphere grew even livelier.

People gathered in small groups. Some sang, some played games, as though they were friends who had known one another for years.

As they ate, drank, and played, time gradually slipped by.

At around nine o'clock, everyone had played for the entire day and was tired, preparing to head home.

Zhou Baiyun stood up and clapped her hands, drawing everyone's attention as she prepared to say a few polite words.

Everyone gave her face and quietly looked toward her.

Zhou Baiyun opened her mouth...

Boom!

A thunderous sound suddenly came from the distant mountain forest. Even from so far away, everyone felt as though the ground had trembled.

"What was that?"

Everyone was shocked and looked toward the source of the sound, only to find that area pitch-black, making it impossible to see anything at all.
