Ke Dashan was surprised, but Ke Nanshan was calm, saying “Don’t worry . Let’s see what he’ll do . Ah Feng was never stupid . ”

The other hunters watched Lei Xinfeng wordlessly, seeing his swaggering movements that showed no hint of evasion . Bull herds are very sensitive and treated any moving object as enemies . The charge and trampling of bulls are something even barbarians must beware of .

Hu Daniu was in a tree . “Ke Dao, is Ah Feng being too careless? If he keeps on like this, he’ll definitely cause the herd to attack . ”

“I don’t know why he’s going like this either . We’ll see, Daniu . ”

Right when it seemed the hunters’ worries couldn’t increase any further, a herd of bulls began to charge toward Lei Xinfeng .

The herd was seventy to eighty animals strong, with the male bulls numbering around twenty; the rest were cows and calves . The trembling caused by a stampede of bulls was terrifying .

The thundering hoofbeats could be heard by the white-faced hunters in the trees as they watched Lei Xinfeng standing all alone .

Ke Dashan grabbed the branch he clung to so tightly his fingers paled . “Why… Ah Feng… dodge!” he whispered .

Lei Xinfeng stood his ground, eyeing the herd . He lifted his hand and a steel spear appeared in his hands .

Shu!

The spear flew true like an arrow, stapling into the leading bull, so quick it left barely an afterimage . The spear sank into the bull’s head, penetrating halfway into its abdomen, leaving only a foot of spear outside . The bull trampled for a few more steps before collapsing heavily onto the ground .

 

 

 

 

When he threw the first spear, another spear appeared in Lei Xinfeng’s hands, and he threw it again .

 

 

 

 

Shu! Shu! Shu…

A dozen sounds of the spear splitting air followed the dozen spears’ flight, and then came the thundering sounds of huge bodies hitting the ground .

Ke Dashan’s mouth hung open . He never thought that this would be the result . Every spear killed a bull and in moments, a dozen bulls were lying on the ground . Some half of the animals behind them tripped over the bodies .

Lei Xinfeng did not stop . Spear after spear took flight, each killing a cow, and in a few minutes, the entire herd was dead .

The hunters in the trees stared blankly . They’d never seen such a slaughter . This wasn’t hunting . It was a massacre . The bulls were never a threat to Lei Xinfeng .

Lei Xinfeng ran over to the unmoving herd and began pulling out his spears, putting both the weapon and the animals into his Hidden Lun space . Soon, all the bulls were gone, leaving behind only the blood that marked the slaughter .

There was a total of seventy-six bulls, of which fourteen were calves, and twenty-one were male bulls . The rest were cows .

Lei Xinfeng planned to hunt one more herd; it’s not like he wanted to hunt them to extinction .

Meanwhile, the hunters were all shocked by Lei Xinfeng’s killing . A whole herd was decimated in less than a minute! How powerful does one have to be to accomplish this? If someone like this decided to kill people, no one will be able to stop him .

Lei Xinfeng meandered to another herd . This one was a bit bigger, numbering around a hundred animals .

That herd quickly realized Lei Xinfeng’s existence, letting out a loud baying sound . Lei Xinfeng ignored it and summoned a spear to his hand .

 

 

 

 


The thundering hoofbeats resumed and roughly thirty of the bulls charged toward Lei Xinfeng .

 

 

 

 

Lei Xinfeng launched his spear and another one appeared in his hands . The spear screamed as the tip split the air before it .

Everyone already knew the outcome . In less than three minutes, the entire herd was killed and not one escaped . This was the difference between a practitioner and a regular person . A regular person wouldn’t be able to accomplish this no matter how they tried, while a practitioner could do this effortlessly .

The hunters felt numb even as they cheered in their hearts . Once they transport all these bulls back to Tiger Cliff Castle, they would have enough meat to last the entire winter . The bull pelts would make them rich .

After killing the two herds, Lei Xinfeng stopped . Of course, killing some two hundred bulls was nothing compared to the thousands that roamed the plains . The number he hunted was enough to last Tiger Cliff through the winter . They only had to hunt a little besides to broaden their palate .

Lei Xinfeng pulled out his spears and stored these bulls too . He walked back to the hunters . “Okay, we have enough bulls now . Uncle Ke, get everyone to look around . I want to find where the barbarians live . ”

Uncle Ke looked at Lei Xinfeng strangely . Was this really the feisty youth from back then? Sighing to himself, he agreed . “Alright, I’ll form the teams . ” He gave a call and the hunters all climbed down from their hiding spots . They all showed respect to Lei Xinfeng when they say him . To be able to hunt like this required a certain amount of strength, and these hunters were always respectful of strength when they saw it .

After finding out that Lei Xinfeng planned to eradicate the barbarians, they all let out a cheer . The hunters all knew that the existence in the forest that presented the most threat to them was not the large beasts in there, but the barbarians . The barbarians were sapient and powerful . They also liked to hunt humans . To them, hunting humans were a rite of passage, and those that could not hunt and kill a human was not considered a warrior .

Many of Tiger Cliff’s hunters fell to the barbarians so when Ke Dashan gave the order to search for them, none of the hunters present shied from the duty . They dispersed, combing the forest in small groups for the barbarians .

Jin Daya smiled . “Ah Feng, you scared them . ”

“That’s normal,” Fengying said . “If they were stoic the whole way through, they would be the abnormal thing . ”

“What are barbarians?” Shihu asked .

 

 

 

 

“The natives here . They… find glory in hunting hunters,” Lei Xinfeng replied .

 

 

 

 

Shihu was surprised . “What kind of native is this? Aren’t there practitioners here?”

“There are, why wouldn’t there be? It’s just that none of them are very powerful . The strongest ones are only third or fourth ring, and since they are the leaders, there’s no way that they will come up here into the mountains to kill barbarians . As for those lower Ten Thousand Lun Masters, or Milun Masters, they might be able to kill some barbarians, but eradication is impossible . ”

“If this was my home, they’d have been destroyed already,” Shihu said .

“This is a remote region and no one comes here . Even if a hunter was killed, no one except the people here will know,” Lei Xinfeng said .

“What do you plan to do?” Fengying asked .

“Nothing much . I just want to clean Tiger Cliff’s surroundings of barbarians and make them fear ever setting foot here again . As for the others… never mind,” Lei Xinfeng said .

Fengying nodded . “Might as well . It’s a temporary solution, but it will make this place a little safer . ”

“Well, I do feel gratitude toward this place,” Lei Xinfeng said, laughing .

“Haha, this does count as returning home . At least you don’t have a large family, or you’ll be a lot busier,” Fengying said .

Lei Xinfeng grimaced . “If I had a large family, everything would be different . However, I can’t even find my sister or grandfather . ” He never mentioned his parents . He’d never even seen them, so he felt no emotions toward them .

“You’ll find them . They’re not regular people after all,” Fengying said, comforting him .

Lei Xinfeng nodded . “I will definitely find them . ”

When evening fell, the hunters’ whistles began to sound, letting them all gather at the wooden house near the pond . It was a place for the hunters of Tiger Cliff to rest as well as a decent hunting location .

“Did you find anything?” Lei Xinfeng asked .

The hunters shook their head . They couldn’t find the barbarians’ gathering spots . Lei Xinfeng didn’t find it strange either . The mountains were too big for the twenty hunters to search easily . If they did run into them, it would be because of abnormal luck . Not being able to find the barbarians was more normal .

Lei Xinfeng smiled . “Don’t worry . Let’s rest for tonight . Tomorrow, the four of us will search . Heh, I bet we will definitely find their hiding spot . ” He was very confident, stemming from their ability to fly . Flying definitely broadened their vision, and if the barbarians lived anywhere nearby, they wouldn’t be able to hide from the four of them .

He took out the body of a bull . Ke Dashan and the other hunters began to skin the animal and boil water, preparing the food for the night .

The twenty-four of them, each of them adult men with big appetites, was more than enough to finish off an entire bull along with some little animals . While they were searching for the barbarians, some of the hunters had come across some small game and took them on their way back .

Hu Yi even killed two pearl sheeps . Each pearl sheep only had two or three jins of meat on them, but each morsel was delicious . It was the best Tiger Cliff had to offer .

A big pot of water was brought onto a rack . Someone brought back a bunch of firewood and Lei Xinfeng even especially took out a few sticks of oil wood, lighting a large fire under the pot . Each hunter was an expert at outdoor cooking . Someone gathered a bunch of mushrooms and cooked it along with the bull meat . Large clumps of salt were scattered in the brew together with wild herbs and more mushrooms . When the water began to boil, the aroma of the food began to spread .

Cooking outside was actually a dangerous activity since it can draw the attention of wild beasts . However, with Lei Xinfeng and his guards present, they had nothing to fear .

Every hunter knew how to make chowder, or known locally as the random stew . Random meats, herbs, vegetables, and mushrooms were all thrown in with some salt to create a delicious meal . The freshness of the ingredients only served to make everything more delicious .

Someone even added a few pieces of bacon to finally finish off the dish, going off of their experience on what would taste good .
