The man had never seen such a scene before. Stuttering, he blurted out all the information he knew to Shu Yue. The more Shu Yue listened, the tighter his brows furrowed.
He naturally knew that Shu Yao wasn't really unable to fight. He just didn't want any unnecessary trouble. But after all, he was a demon. Wasn't it good to live a more unrestrained life?
Shu Yue had advised him countless times before, but Shu Yao just wouldn't listen. He had never said much and always let Shu Yao do as he pleased. But this time, after he brought Shu Yao back, he was going to have a good talk with him.
"G-great hero... Could you please let me go?"
The man, who had been held by the neck by Shu Yue all this time, was extremely nervous. This man clearly wasn't easy to deal with. He didn't know if he could survive the night in his hands. He regretted ever giving this guy a warning.
Only then did Shu Yue notice that the man was still being held in his hand. He let go of him with a look of disgust and then glanced at him. In fact, he didn't know what to do with this man. If he simply let him go, what if the information he provided was false?
"I'm sure every word I said is true, great hero. Please don't wrong an innocent man."
Perhaps Shu Yue's look was too fierce. As soon as the man saw that something was wrong with his look, he immediately got up from the ground and waved his hands repeatedly, indicating that he was indeed telling the truth.
This man really didn't have much ability, but his eyes were very sharp. He could tell at a glance that Shu Yue wasn't someone to be trifled with. He wouldn't dare to tell a lie in front of Shu Yue even if he had a hundred more guts.
"Annoying."
Shu Yue was already extremely annoyed. This guy was just adding fuel to the fire, making so much noise that Shu Yue could feel the veins on his forehead throbbing. He waved the man away with a slap and then left with a flick of his sleeve. Shu Yao was still waiting for his rescue. He didn't have any extra time to deal with these things.
The man left on the spot couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief as he watched Shu Yue's departing back. He had finally managed to save his life.
The hunters hadn't hit too hard. Shu Yao regained consciousness after a while. He touched the back of his neck and found that it was swollen. It hurt even with the slightest touch. He couldn't help but gasp in pain when he accidentally pressed a bit too hard.
"Little beauty, you're awake?"
The scar - faced leader among the hunters had been keeping a close eye on this side. Hearing the sound, he immediately opened the door. Seeing that Shu Yao was awake, he let out a couple of lecherous laughs.
Shu Yao didn't want to talk to these people, so he didn't reply. He just looked around to observe the environment. Seeing that Shu Yao ignored him, the scar - faced man thought he was trying to escape. The anger he had been holding back from being cold - shouldered before couldn't be contained anymore. He sneered, ready to make Shu Yao give up hope.
"Little beauty, if you're thinking of escaping, don't even bother. This is our base camp. It's been surrounded inside and out. You'd have to be the king of heaven to escape from here!"
Shu Yao didn't care what he said and still ignored the hunter. Anyway, since things had come to this point, waiting for Shu Yue to rescue him was a good strategy. Shu Yao had no intention of fighting against the hunters, but the hunters couldn't stand it anymore. They thought Shu Yao's repeated provocations were very offensive.
The scar - faced man stepped forward in front of Shu Yao. A ray of light shone through the nailed - up wooden planks and fell on Shu Yao's face, making his beauty even more stunning. The scar - faced man was, of course, a vulgar man. He couldn't resist the temptation for a moment and pounced on Shu Yao, ready to take advantage of him on the spot.
"What do you think you're doing?"
Shu Yao didn't expect the hunter to suddenly make a move. Maybe the hunter had underestimated him and didn't tie him up. Shu Yao easily dodged, causing the hunter to fall hard.
"Ouch, you dare to run?"
Now the scar - faced man felt even more humiliated. After cursing a few words, he started shouting for the hunters who had been guarding outside to come into the room.
"All of you outside, come in. The little beauty isn't cooperating. We need to teach him a lesson!"
Shu Yao secretly clenched his fists. Even at this point, he still didn't want to hurt these mortals. The events of that year were still fresh in his memory. If it happened again, he was afraid he wouldn't be able to control himself at all.
These people didn't give him much time. While Shu Yao was hesitating, the room was already filled with them. They swarmed up, their eyes full of desire and greed. It was obvious that this wasn't the first time they had done such a thing. As for the young men and girls they had abducted each time, they probably didn't end up well in the end.
Bad places breed bad people. Xu Yi was like this, and so were these few.
Shu Yao managed to dodge a few of their attacks with difficulty, but he was no match for so many people and was quickly pinned down. One of them couldn't wait to take off his clothes, while Shu Yao struggled constantly and bit the hunter's finger. The taste of blood spread in his mouth.
"Ah! You actually bit me!"
The hunter had never been treated like this before. He let out a howl, and his look at Shu Yao became even more ferocious. He was going to teach this guy a good lesson today and make him kneel down and lick his feet later.
As soon as Shu Yao tasted the blood, he let go. He was afraid that he would, like last time, unconsciously go on a killing spree. Demons generally didn't like the feeling of losing control of their bodies, and Shu Yao was especially so. A flash of red light passed through his eyes. He didn't want to deal with these people anymore, so he simply secretly used his magic to escape. Shu Yao didn't intend to hurt these people. He just wanted to leave.
But these people behind him still chased after him relentlessly. Shu Yao had no choice. Even when he entered the forest, he couldn't shake off these shouting hunters. When Shu Yue arrived, he happened to see the hunters surrounding Shu Yao. His heart tightened. Just as he was about to make a move, he thought that it was time for Shu Yao to see the evil in people's hearts.
He couldn't always let him live a simple and innocent life. A demon who came down from the mountain had to integrate into the secular world. If he was always kind - hearted, it might be the biggest nightmare.
Shu Yao didn't want to waste any more time with them. He felt very uncomfortable looking at the greedy looks in these people's eyes. He rubbed his hands and frowned when he saw the disheveled appearance of the leading hunter.
"Run, why don't you run anymore? Damn it, you want us to take you in the forest, don't you, you slut."
The hunter was really angry now. He picked up his knife, planning to subdue Shu Yao first and then have sex with him right in the forest. Shu Yue, who was hiding, naturally knew what he meant. He was a bit worried about what Shu Yao would do.
Shu Yao naturally understood what he meant too. He always hated such filthy words. He frowned and finally couldn't help but use his magic to immobilize these people on the spot.
The hunters suddenly found that they couldn't move. They all stared with wide eyes in disbelief at Shu Yao.
Before they could be too surprised, they saw Shu Yue walking out from behind the tree.
"Shu Yue, you're here. What should we do with these people? Just leave them here?"
