Chapter 653: Chapter 653: The Fifth Team Was Stunned Chapter 653: Chapter 653: The Fifth Team Was Stunned The members of the fifth team and Shu Feng and Shu Quan all hid behind trees and bushes, hoping to find a chance for revenge.
Shu Yu and her companions began to slowly approach, their voices filled with excitement; a few members of the fifth team quietly peeked out to see.
At that moment, everyone froze in unison, staring in shock at the prey carried on the shoulders of Ma Lu and his companions.
Holy shit, they actually went into the deep mountains and brought back a tiger! Were they seeing things?
The members of the fifth team rubbed their eyes and then started counting the heads, one, two, three… No, no one was missing.
They had killed such a huge tiger, and not a single person had gone missing; in fact, no one had even been severely injured.
How could this be possible?
However, they did not see the strange man who had knocked them all down earlier.
The members of the fifth team were somewhat dazed, not just them; Shu Feng and Shu Quan were also staring, watching as Shu Yu and her companions carried the prey down the mountain in high spirits, their bodies as if fixed in place, no one moved an inch, let alone approached them for trouble.
Their figures had originally been well-hidden, but they were too shocked and accidentally exposed themselves.
Shu Yu naturally noticed them, but she only saw the fifth team’s members; the Shu brothers were on another side, less conspicuous, and she did not notice them.
Not only her, but Ma Lu also spotted them.
He snorted coldly and was about to go pull them out.
Shu Yu took a step forward to stop him, “Let’s settle accounts with them later, to avoid unnecessary complications.”
The fifth team’s people were no longer important to her now; they needed to rush to the manor while it was still early, otherwise they might miss the governor and Mister Qi.
It was unknown if they were still in Righteous Dao Village, but even if not, it didn’t matter. Given their pace, they were most likely to stop in Heichang County tonight.
In the same county town, the news of them killing a ferocious tiger in Righteous Dao Village would definitely reach their ears.
Because they were hurrying to meet someone, Ma Lu and the others, who had planned to continue hunting, were also stopped by her.
Ma Lu opened his mouth; under normal circumstances, he would have grown impatient with Shu Yu’s repeated interferences.
Let it be; this girl looked delicate on the outside, but she was also a werewolf. Not to mention, she took the lead during the tiger fight, and her skills were impressive.
And then there was Yunzheng, the most helpful one.
Without him, they wouldn’t have descended the mountain so early, nor would they have managed to kill the tiger so easily.
At least, someone would definitely have been seriously injured; if Yunzheng hadn’t intervened in time, two members of the third team might have not escaped the tiger’s deadly jaws.
Ma Lu and his companions were very grateful to Yunzheng, feeling a kind of kindred spirit with him.
Of course, this was just Ma Lu’s thought; whether Yunzheng felt the same was unknown.
He and Zhao Xi had split from them upon leaving the deep mountains, claiming they were going to collect herbs.
But everyone understood that this was to avoid unnecessary complications, to prevent people from knowing they had other people helping them.
Even they deliberately avoided unnecessary trouble, so naturally, Ma Lu did not want to create more issues with the fifth team’s pests.
Thus, persuaded by Shu Yu, he nodded, “Alright, we’ll handle them later.”
The group ignored the fifth team’s people and continued excitedly carrying their prey down the mountain.
After exchanging looks, the fifth team’s members subconsciously followed them.
