Chapter 332: Bumping into a Woman

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
Xizhao Valley was a small valley made up of low-lying ground, and had an extraordinary glow to it under the sunlight when the sun was setting. Some say that it was due to a unique plant species here, which would blossom briefly every evening. The fascinating tale had attracted quite a number of adventurers here to take photos of it…
However, the truth was horrifying enough to make anyone’s scalp go numb. The real reason was that when the fertile soil here reached a certain temperature at sunset, the Giant Lizards whose skin secreted a layer of oily slime, would crawl out from their swamps and lie in the valley. Their skin was usually rough, but the layer of oil would reflect the sunlight like crystals, thus the valley shone brightly, as if it were filled with sparkling treasure.
A long time ago, there were tales about the hidden treasure waiting to be discovered in this mysterious valley, waiting for brave Magicians to dig them up. However, after a significant amount of Magicians were killed, many people were disgusted by the truth when the mysterious, beautiful veil was torn apart.
Humans gradually distanced themselves from Dongting Lake as the beast horde continued to expand its territory. Many had moved to the safer cities, and so the ugly tale of Xizhao Valley was still being spread among their descendants…
On a muddy road leading to Xizhao Valley, a group of fully-equipped hunters slowly made their way towards the dangerous place.
It was currently evening. Xizhao Valley was emanating a beautiful shine, as usual. Perhaps if the truth were not known, it would turn out to be a great attraction, as the shine emitting from the valley was too astonishing.
“Believe me, there must be some treasure in Xizhao Valley. I’ll bet my dick on it.” A red-haired young man tapped his chest and said.
“Yo, watch your mouth, there’s still a woman in our group!” A man wearing a bandana said. He purposely cast a side glance at the woman wearing a tight-fitting outfit, who had joined the group halfway through the journey.
The woman was wearing a pair of army-green pants. The loose cut was unable to conceal her big booty, while her long, firm legs, which were perfectly straight even though she was not wearing high heels, totally thronged the men’s minds with lewd thoughts…
Maybe because of the slightly warm temperature, the woman had taken off her jacket. She was only wearing a black chest binder. Her outstanding bust had caused the men who were experiencing a great burst of hormones to excuse themselves into the woods to provide relief for their physical needs. Otherwise, they were scared they would be committing a serious criminal offense here in the wild, not to mention the group consisted of famous Magicians and hunters…
The busty woman did not seem to be bothered by the comments. She had used a wooden branch to tie her hair, as if she had forgotten to bring her hair clip, exposing her face and neck, which were covered in fragrant sweat. Deep cleavage could be seen down her neck, a very attractive sight. Her rather simple and casual look somehow highlighted her wild personality, and was causing a great itch in the men’s hearts!
“By the way, this woman is pretty daring too, coming to the valley of Dongting Lake on her own. She was lucky to bump into us. If it were a group of dishonorable hunters, they would most likely rape her and kill her before dumping her body in the wild, and no one would care at all,” the leader, Liang Dachui, said to his friends nearby.
“Leader, please don’t bring that up. If not, I could turn into the dishonorable person you are describing. The lady is too hot!” Huang Zhuosi could not help but peek at the woman again.
Their boss coughed loudly. “Can we talk about business!? The treasure in Xizhao Valley will surely make us rich,” the red-haired man said with a stern look.
The five men, with Liang Dachui as their leader, were part of the Dachui Hunter Group. Everyone was an Intermediate Magician. The group was a relatively famous Hunter Group in Biyi City. Their success rate at looting treasure, bounties, or mercenary work was rather impressive.
They were told by their informer that there was some treasure in Xizhao Valley, estimated to worth millions or more. As such, the group immediately decided to try their luck, despite the challenging journey so far.
To their surprise, they had bumped into a female hunter on her own, who seemed to have lost her way. The group conveniently brought her along, seeing that her strength was rather outstanding, too. She was also heading to Xizhao Valley. She had told them that she was not interested in the treasure, and was only trying to investigate the area for some strange reason.
Everyone in the group was fairly experienced, thus no one was worried that the woman was trying to trick them. The only problem was, they had wasted too much toilet paper after bringing her along. At this rate, they would have to use stones and tree branches to clean a certain body part when needed…
“We’re almost there. We should come up with a plan first. I don’t think we should barge in the valley straight away. It will take us more than seven days and nights just to wipe out the Giant Lizards on the way here,” the red-haired Magician who was in charge of planning their strategy said.
“Give me the map,” the woman said.
“Li Man, are you an analyst too?” the red-haired man asked with a hint of interest.
“I’m normally in charge of settling problems,” Li Man said.
An analyst was the mastermind of the team, in charge of planning their strategy. Once it was approved by the captain, the whole team would stick to it. A Hunter Group without a brilliant mastermind would usually end up dying in the wild, regardless of how strong they were. Having outstanding strength alone was useless without a certain level of intelligence and experience!
“The sky is turning dark. We’ll be entering the valley tomorrow evening.”
“Evening? Hong Niao, didn’t you say that’s the time when the Giant Lizards would come out from their caves? Aren’t we presenting ourselves to them if we head in at that time?” Huang Zhuosi asked.
“That explains why you’re not the mastermind!”
The captain Liang Dachui had great faith in Hong Niao’s capabilities. He immediately agreed to follow his plan.
——
The following evening, the Hunter Group appeared at the east of the valley. They were taking a path which seemed rather dangerous, but in the end, not a single Giant Lizard was insight. It totally puzzled Huang Zhuosi.
“How do you know there’s no beasts here?” Huang Zhuosi asked.
“Aren’t they a fan of sunbathing? If you look closely, you will realize that the west of the valley has a lower height than this area. Most of the Giant Lizards will be sunbathing there instead, thus this side will be clear,” Hong Niao said confidently. He could not help but glance at the woman called Li Man as he spoke, trying to detect any hint of impression from her eyes.
Sadly, Li Man had a stern look naturally, thus she did not show any reaction.
She did not seem to be interested with the treasure in the valley, but she was intrigued by the corpses of the Giant Lizards they found along the way. She went up to the dead bodies and mumbled, “Punctured by lightning, instant death… I’m getting closer to my target!”
