“What is it? You don’t agree with me?” Lu Zhuo noticed the hatred on Gu Ying’s face. He was quite amused. He murmured, “I was also stuck at the rank of Intermediate Hunter when you first met me. I never had the chance to become an Advanced Hunter, but I learned that sticking to the rules would only make me a slave taking orders from other people for the rest of my life. I was only able to become a Three Star Hunter Master because I was cruel enough!”

Lu Zhuo noticed that Gu Ying was starting to lose her balance. He immediately lent her a hand, but she used all her might to throw his hand away and stumbled in the opposite direction.

Lu Zhuo was not bothered at all. Many people had no clue how his rank had risen so quickly. He could not afford to share it with others, but he was the only person awake now. He could talk about it all he wanted. He could also calm his thoughts and wait a while before enjoying his time with Gu Ying, whom he had set his eyes on for quite some time. The night was still young, and it was too dangerous to be traveling on the Thousand Islands Lake at night. Lu Zhuo was not worried that someone would invade his privacy!

“You are disgusted by me, yet you are trying so hard just to earn that Seven Star Hunter Master’s favor, thinking that he’s going to change your life. Did you ever wonder if he stinks just like me under the skin? I’ve done so many misdeeds, yet I’m only a Three Star Hunter Master. How many lives did you think he has taken to become a Seven Star Hunter Master?” Lu Zhuo said.

The people that Luo Mian killed so he could become a Councilman were enough to stack up into a hill under his feet. Lu Zhuo believed the things he did were nothing compared to Luo Mian!

What about a Seven Star Hunter Master with great power?

The man was able to achieve the rank at such a young age, giving him the power to order Three Stars Hunter Masters like them around. There was no way Lu Zhuo would believe he was a righteous man, since Lu Zhuo knew clearly that no matter how hardworking they were, they would never climb faster than those that claimed the rewards for their own, especially the rewards for an entire group!

There was no return after he had done it once!

Unfortunately, many people were unaware of that, nor did they have the courage to attempt it!

“Do you think everyone is the same as you!?” Gu Ying trembled in anger.

“Who knows, but at least, I can tell that Seven Star Hunter Master is far from innocent! The bearing, temperament, and eyes of those that were stained with blood are different from an innocent person. I’m pretty sure you could sense it too!” Lu Zhuo said.

Gu Ying fell silent.

Hunters were quite sensitive toward danger. She did feel a strong aura of blood under the Seven Stars Hunter Master’s indifferent appearance. He had an unusual bearing back when he was concealing his strength. It was the reason why Gu Ying had taken an interest in him in the first place. However, the feeling was even stronger when he revealed his identity as a Seven Stars Hunter Master.

“This is a great opportunity for me. I didn’t want it to end like this, either, but don’t you worry, so many Hunters die every day! People will soon forget about this incident, just like a casual conversation they had at the bars or the teahouses. As for me, I’ll continue to climb my way up while the rest of you slowly rot under the ground,” Lu Zhuo said as he approached Gu Ying.

He had just satisfied his desires not long ago, yet he was already having a reaction when he saw Gu Ying trying to stand properly. As he thought, he was more interested in Gu Ying. He already had an erection after such a short time. He still had to feed so many people to the monsters in the lake. He had to hurry!

Lu Zhuo reached his hand out and pulled the staggering Gu Ying to his chest. He was almost drooling with lust. He remembered the first time he had done something against his conscience. He was utterly terrified back then, but now, he was feeling excited. It was true that humans could not afford to become depraved. Even the slightest fall was enough for one to revel in it. They would no longer feel the slightest guilt, remorse, and sense of evil. They would become so twisted that even they would have trouble recognizing themselves!

A ferocious wolf with icy-white hair suddenly lunged out from the tent behind, swinging its claws directly at Lu Zhuo.

It took Lu Zhuo by surprise. He instinctively backed away and turned into a mist to dodge the sharp claws!

The mist moved a certain distance back before Lu Zhuo reappeared. His face had a faint bleeding scratch. It made Lu Zhuo’s contorted face look even scarier!

“I was wondering why you kept heading in this direction. It turns out that you’re trying to ask this wolf for help. Humph, did you really think I didn’t take that into consideration too? Your teammates aren’t all as smart as you!” Lu Zhuo chuckled darkly.

Lu Zhuo was well aware of the Flying Creek Snow Wolf’s existence. The creature had the aura of a Great Commander-level creature. His true strength might even surpass the level of a Great Commander-level creature! Lu Zhuo had purposely tricked Gu Ying’s teammates to feed the Flying Creek Snow Wolf water from the cold spring, too. He only dared to act so recklessly after he saw the Flying Creek Snow Wolf drink the water.

The Flying Creek Snow Wolf was stronger than Lu Zhuo had expected. He did not fall asleep even after he had drunk the water.

The Flying Creek Snow Wolf stood beside Gu Ying, howling while facing Lu Zhuo. His icy aura was weaker than usual, and he was swaying due to his strong drowsiness. He would shake his head fiercely at times to keep himself awake.

The Flying Creek Snow Wolf could have killed Lu Zhuo instantly at his full strength. Lu Zhuo had not expected the attack. However, the Flying Creek Snow Wolf had lost half of his strength. The swing was not even that hard!

“My title of Three Stars Hunter Master isn’t just mere decoration. Even if the wolf isn’t unconscious, I can still slay it! It’s funny that you think it can save you!” Lu Zhuo took a huge step forward, covered in the strange mist again.

Gu Ying did not have much strength left as she stood behind the Flying Creek Snow Wolf.

The Flying Creek Snow Wolf could still fight. He bared his fangs and glared at the mist that Lu Zhuo had turned into.

“His Primary Element is Poison, Secondary is Water, and Tertiary is Shadow…” Gu Ying immediately told the Flying Creek Snow Wolf Lu Zhuo’s Elements.

Lu Zhuo’s movements were unpredictable, but the Flying Creek Snow Wolf soon noticed the mist spreading across the island. He could see several images of Lu Zhuo inside it.

The Flying Creek Snow Wolf was weakened by the drowsiness, and the mist was also making it harder for him to track down Lu Zhuo.

The Flying Creek Snow Wolf finally noticed a shadow that was likely to be the real Lu Zhuo. He pounced at it fiercely.

However, the shadows in the mist suddenly scattered. It was just a trick that Lu Zhuo had pulled off with his Shadow Element!
