The Foehn Hunter Squad traveled along the shore of the lake to the west. They had been allocated four search points. The first area they were heading to was likely where the Great Salamander Demons were, an island covered by primitive plants. The plants had almost grown down into the lake.

Thousand Islands Lake was extremely large. The Salamander Demons would hide under the plants to conceal their presence. Without them, someone would have noticed abnormalities after so many Hunters came to the Thousand Islands Lake to earn a quick fortune.

The information exchanged between Hunters was extremely quick. If someone had found the Great Salamander Demons, the Hunter Union would already have records. As such, the Foehn Hunter Squad believed the four areas were most likely where the Great Salamander Demons were hiding, based on their experience and analysis of the Salamander Demons’ behavior!

“Speaking of which, did you notice that the number of Lizard Demons has decreased? The Lizard Demons were crawling all over the place like bugs in the swamps before, but we didn’t have any trouble crossing the swamp to catch a youngling of the Lizard Demons last time. It should have taken us more than a few days to complete the quest,” Xie Hao suddenly spoke up.

“Yeah, it feels weird to me, too. The Lizard Demons should be quite active during this season,” Zhong Li nodded in agreement.

“There isn’t any trace of the Salamander Demons on this island!” Big Nose called out.

“Let’s head to the next area, then,” Gu Ying said.

At the Cloud-Shaped Island, Lu Zhuo and Li Yumei were leading the team. Two members of the Cangjin Hunter Group were with them. Every member of the Cangjin Hunter Group liked to wear their trademark headscarf.

“Darling, do you think that guy is really a Seven Star Hunter Master?” Li Yumei whispered to Lu Zhuo.

“He definitely is, there’s no way you can fake that!” Lu Zhuo glanced at Li Yumei.

For some reason, Lu Zhuo did not feel comfortable when Li Yumei was around, especially when he saw her shamelessly pour tea for the teams. He felt embarrassed, even though he had been the one to ask her to do it.

“But how is that possible? You are only a Three Star Hunter Master, when you’re already so capable. How is he four stars higher than you? Does he have a formidable background?” Li Yumei said.

Li Yumei’s words made Lu Zhuo feel uneasy.

Lu Zhuo did find it hard to believe. The guy clearly looked a few years younger than him. How did he even complete the S-Ranked Quest of the Drowning Curse?

“Did you forget about his partner? His partner was the one that figured out the reason why the Salamander Demons’ numbers are so overwhelming…” Lu Zhuo said.

“You’re saying that he’s not really that impressive, but he has a capable partner? So he’s just a freeloader like me?” Li Yumei’s eyes glittered.

“He should have some tricks up his sleeves, but he won’t be too much stronger than me. I’m curious about how his partner helped him to become a Seven Star Hunter Master at such a young age. If I had an old senior like that to guide me, there’s no way I’d be just a Three Star Hunter Master now,” Lu Zhuo harrumphed coldly.

“I told you, no one is more impressive than my darling among the Hunters. Humph, that guy was acting so full of himself, yet he was only relying on his partner!” Li Yumei felt a lot better, and soon recovered her usual proud demeanor.

“You should only say those things in front of me. You better watch your mouth when he’s around. Either way, his rank is still higher than ours. We can probably get some benefits from him,” Lu Zhuo said.

“Of course… but that b**ch Gu Ying dared to complain to him about me. Such a pity, I almost became their leader. I would have played them to death!” Li Yumei sniffed.

“You better behave yourself. His partner is already displeased after you tried to fool them with a youngling of the Lizard Demons that you bought, and you offended him again today. Just mind your manners and do what a freeloader should for the Contribution Points. Are you worried that you won’t have a chance to get back at her after you become a Hunter Master?” Lu Zhuo said.

“You’re right.”

“Leader, there’s a cave connected to the lake. It might be where the Great Salamander Demons are,” the leader of the Cangjin Hunter Group, Lan Jin, called out to him.

“Mm, take your men and investigate it,” Lu Zhuo said.

“Ah? Aren’t you coming with us? It might be dangerous if the cave is only a narrow passage. Even if the Great Salamander Demons aren’t here, it might have some other creatures too. The few of us are going to struggle against them. We won’t dare go down without you!” Lan Jin answered.

“Don’t worry, I’ll be keeping an eye outside. I’ll back you up right away if anything happens,” Lu Zhuo smiled.

“Al…alright.”

Lan Jin led the rest of the team into the cave while Lu Zhuo and Li Yumei waited outside.

“Why aren’t you going in with them?” Li Yumei asked with a confused look.

“These caves that are connected to the Thousand Islands Lake are extremely dangerous. Some strong demon creatures in the lake treat these caves as their nests, since they can stay on the island or dive into the lake. It’s better to let them investigate first. If I’m stuck inside and happen to stumble into a Commander-level creature, I won’t come out alive!” Lu Zhuo said.

“A Commander-level creature? Could there really be one in a place like this?” Li Yumei exclaimed.

“Of course there is! The Thousand Islands Lake is so huge, with so many islands across it. Only inexperienced teams investigate these caves in person. Our group would usually send a Summoned Beast into it first,” Lu Zhuo grinned coldly.

“I’ve learned something today,” Li Yumei nodded.

Their group of Hunter Masters was indeed different. Li Yumei suddenly realized her Panshan Hunter Squad was a group of cannon fodder compared to Lu Zhuo’s experience and knowledge!

Lu Zhuo glanced at Li Yumei and noticed that she was wearing a low-cut shirt. Her breasts were bouncing as she nodded. Most importantly, he could see her tits through the thin shirt.

This b**ch, how dare she not wear any undergarments? She knew she was going to meet the Seven Star Hunter Master!

“What does that mean?” Lu Zhuo pulled a long face and pointed at Li Yumei’s chest.

“Ah? What are you referring to?” Li Yumei was startled. She quickly lowered her head and looked at herself.

Li Yumei was not a total idiot. She knew how to discern people’s thoughts from their body language, especially men’s. She immediately reacted, “Isn’t it all your fault? You insisted on doing it in the morning. We were almost late for the meeting, so I didn’t even have time to put one on!”

Lu Zhuo thought about it. They were indeed in a rush in the morning!

After the tension eased up slightly, Lu Zhuo reached his hand out to fondle Li Yumei’s breasts, seeing that no one was around. It felt different touching them with the shirt in the way, especially when she least expected it.

“What are you doing? We are still outside!” Li Yumei quickly put on a shy expression.

“They are inside the cave. It’s going to take them a while. I’ve already looked around. There aren’t any demon creatures around, apart from those inside the cave, so it isn’t dangerous here…” Lu Zhuo was suddenly in the mood for some action!
