“Chase him, he’s just ahead!”

Within the vast snowy forest, Du Qing led his subordinates, determinedly pursuing the fleeing silhouette in front of them.

As a middle-level manager of the Qingzhu Gang, his strength was naturally not bad.

Not only had he practiced the gang’s Green Snake Stick Technique, but he had also cultivated one of his meridians and developed Inner Strength.

Although his strength was still insignificant in the greater Jianghu, it was already considered remarkable in the countryside of Nan’an County.

With a pair of iron rods in his hands, he could easily take on twenty armed men without breaking a sweat.

It was precisely because of his martial prowess that Du Qing dared to pursue without any hesitation.

‘Just a lowly mountain hunter, with nothing more than brute strength… Hm, decent archery skills too, but all of this will turn into dust under my Iron Rod.’

With violent thoughts flashing through his mind, Du Qing licked his lips, already desperate to use the iron rod to crack open the damned hunter’s skull.

The spectacle of the hunter’s brains scattering everywhere would be a sight to behold.

“Ah!”

Just as Du Qing was considering how to torture the hunter after capturing him, another scream resounded through the air.

He looked to find one of his underlings, who had been chasing after him, suddenly disappeared into the ground below, falling into a deep pit.contemporary romance

“Damn it!”

Du Qing cursed in a low voice and hurriedly went over to check.

As he approached, he saw his subordinate Dazhuang lying in the pit, his body pierced by more than ten sharpened wooden stakes, and blood flowing from his mouth, nose, and wounds.

With such severe injuries, it was clear he wouldn’t survive.

“Save me… cough… cough…” As Dazhuang saw his boss approaching, a flicker of hope flashed through his eyes. He tried to raise his arm for help but eventually dropped it halfway and stopped moving entirely.

This scene shocked the other Qingzhu Gang members gathered around the pit, leaving them a mix of angry and afraid.

Seeing yet another one of his underlings die, the rage inside Du Qing’s heart reached a boiling point. Roaring fiercely, he bellowed, “I will never let you escape! I will never let you go!”

After shouting twice, he turned to face his remaining subordinates, eyes red and face twisted with fury, “Follow me, we’re not stopping until we catch that kid!”

“Yes!”

The remaining four gang members answered with trembling voices, their hearts full of apprehension as they continued their pursuit.

Little did they know that they would soon come to regret their decision.

The dangers in the mountains are often far more terrifying than what people outside could imagine.

Under the guidance of an adept hunter, the Qingzhu Gang members quickly realized that danger lurked everywhere, and death followed them like a shadow.

Traps, poisonous insects, fierce beasts…

During their short journey through the mountains, Lu Yuan had laid numerous hunting traps for their pursuers by following his preordained route.

And under the meticulous treatment of an expert hunter, the Qingzhu Gang members fell one by one along the way.

Unbeknownst to them, five of their comrades had fallen during the chase.

Now, only two remained.

During the pursuit, Du Qing’s face had become twisted with rage, driven nearly mad by the continuous deaths of his subordinates.

But behind him, the last ordinary gang member suddenly turned and fled, screaming, “I can’t take it anymore, I’m leaving the mountain!”

“Stop, don’t run!”

Seeing one of his men attempt to flee, Du Qing was furious and immediately shouted in reprimand.

But the man did not listen and continued to run desperately towards the mountain’s exit.

“You’re courting death!”

Having been tormented by the chase to the point of losing his balance, Du Qing could contain his murderous intent no longer and finally snapped. He clenched his iron rod, turned and closed the distance within a few strides, then raised it to ruthlessly smash the deserter’s head.

With a loud thud.

Just like smashing a watermelon, the deserter’s skull shattered into countless fragments and splattered onto the ground.

“Tsk, tsk, so ruthless.”

Far away, hidden behind dense foliage, Lu Yuan peered through the gaps and could not help but exclaim at the sight.

These gangsters were ruthless not only to their enemies but also to their own people.

His decision to avoid close combat with the man was the right one; who knows what horrible things these cruel men would do if they got too close?

He was just a weak and helpless hunter, and against these evil men, he could only rely on his wits to triumph.

“But judging from the performance of that leader, he’s likely practiced martial arts and may even have cultivated Inner Strength. I wonder if he’s a notable figure?” Lu Yuan furrowed his brow.

He had only learned a Palm skill and barely cultivated one meridian.

With such limited strength, confronting the Green Bamboo Gang Leader directly, given his display of power so far, might not be a winning proposition.

“Looks like I need to find a way to wear him down some more.”

With that thought, Lu Yuan raised his bow and aimed at Du Qing, who had just crushed the skull of his own man and was momentarily in a daze. Shooting the arrow without hesitation..
