262 Chapter 262 The Harvest Begins

“How many do you think will die during this week?” Desmond couldn’t help asking Mei who was next to him warming her body with tempting curves causing the poor hunter some distraction.

Noticing Desmond’s gaze on her rear, Mei pursed her lips but didn’t comment on it as she was already used to the appreciative and slightly lustful gaze of her friend.

“Normally at least a third of the people who enter the Thousand Beast Mountains die, but make no mistake, these people don’t necessarily die at the hands of other human beings; many die at the hands of the magical beasts that live in the mountains “Commented Xiauyue who also stole discreet glances at Mei’s curves, perhaps because she was too focused on the temptation at her side, she didn′t notice that Desmond also looked at her cleavage at times.

Needless to mention, Desmond was shocked when he heard that the survival rate was only just over sixty percent but it was difficult for someone to be in a bad mood when he was in the company of two such exquisite beauties.

Little did Desmond know that he had become the center of attention of certain disciples who had an interest in these beauties, but there was more than looks of jealousy and hatred that ended attracting the young hunter, dressed in quite masculine and elegant robes of blue and dark colors that he bought, Desmond was a delicacy for naive girls who fell in love with his bad boy appearance; the poor girls melted when they looked at that dangerous smile so characteristic of the sapphire-eyed boy.

Mei who wasn′t really the most feminine girl, dressed in the same robes as always, strangely these still could not hide the abundant feminine charms.

Xiauyue for her part, either because of some kind of comical occurrence that only she understood or because she found the most beautiful dress she had ever worn so far, she wore an exquisite high-quality black silk dress/tunic with floral patterns of a red intense that gave her usual beautiful and elegant appearance a rather gloomy tone as a whole with the rest of the dress.

As flashy and attractive as they were, it would be strange if the trio did not attract attention, although if Desmond and Mei knew that Xiauyue had donned the extraordinary black dress for mourning the duo’s victims; they wouldn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

Unaware of how little the people in front of him cared about what one of the sect’s deacons said, he continued to explain the almost non-existent rules of the event known as the harvest season.

.....

“Just remember, the mountains of the thousand beasts have usually forbidden terrain throughout the year not only due to the danger that exists within but also due to the pact that exists between the sects around them to avoid over-exploiting the resources of the place and only during seven days a year they are open to disciples; They have only seven days to get out of there and they will be treated as invaders.

As you all know the main objective of the harvest season is to fill our coffers with all the natural treasures available in the mountains, so of everything that you manage to take the sect will take thirty percent which is not in dispute.

Last but not least, remember that you should always watch your back, each of your lives has a price for other sects not different from the rewards that we grant; so stay safe and don’t miss your chance to hunt down members of other sects.

Without further ado, now that the sun has struck noon; I declare the start of the harvest season. ”

As soon as the old man whose name no one bothered to remember finished his last sentence it was as if half the people in the crowd had gone berserk as they frantically ran in the direction of the mountains.

Those who stayed behind only shook their heads when they saw the attitude of the newbies, it was obvious that the first to rush to the mountains without caution would be the first to die; but no one bothered to warn them.

The same applied to the trio who weren’t so kind-hearted as to warn the group of reckless idiots running to their deaths, especially considering they had their problems to deal with.

Moments after the first half of the disciples left for the mountains, a small group of luxurious-looking disciples led by someone wearing the Bai family emblem surrounded Desmond, Mei, and Xiauyue’s group.

It didn’t take a rocket scientist to know that they were coming to cause trouble but it was difficult to deal with them while they were still within the bounds of the sect if they weren’t the ones making the first move.

Of course, Desmond knew this, so he took the initiative with a smile that served to mask the sadistic and provocative mockery that he kept inside him as he said: “This is why I tell you that the Miao family has disappointed me”

His sudden comment criticizing the Miao family instead of the Bai family took not only the individuals around them but also Xiauyue and Mei by surprise, but before anyone had anything to say Desmond continued his monologue: ” I am very disappointed with the Miao family, they let mangy dogs like these enter the sect dirtying the landscape and my good mood with their ugly appearances, look at these poor beasts even their mothers wouldn′t want them; it is fortunate that being so ugly no one will want to marry them so they will not leave offspring. I wish the Bai family learned a little and will stop reproducing as well. ”

Who would have expected that Desmond’s alleged criticism of the Miao family would turn into a barrage of cynical and shameless insults towards the people around them and he will even use the occasion to insult the entire Bai family in passing?

How could this group of spoiled children be able to tolerate such insults? They were proud children of heaven with challenging talents and abundant resources, always accustomed to doing what they wanted with arrogance; They would never be able to tolerate Desmond’s insults and defiance.

At that moment, Mei’s predatory smile couldn’t shine more dangerously while Xiauyue’s smile blossomed like spring flowers with a mischievous little giggle escaping from her fragrant lips.

And the moment that the trio had been waiting for arrived, unable to tolerate the insults, one of the Bai family member’s companions leaped forward performing an excessively showy martial art.

Disdain couldn’t be more evident on Mei’s face as she saw such a boastful one painting flowers in the sky with a kick so she responded by matching the elegance of her opponent with sheer and inordinate power.

The poor idiot who didn’t even leave his name behind him when with an he flew back the way he came and went straight to sleep with his bleeding skull buried in the ground.

With the golden echoes left behind by Mei as a starting signal, Xiauyue and Desmond each broke out with their best moves wanting to get rid of the scum as soon as possible.

Without permission to kill so openly, Desmond channeled the mana from the wind around him to form two pairs of wind rings around his arms and executed a double palm strike that he learned from Mei catching one of his opponents off guard.

At the moment of impact, both pairs of wind rings flowed towards the point of impact and detonated with enormous power almost destroying the internal organs of the poor man who received the blow from Desmond. Strangely Desmond did not seem satisfied, probably only he knew that during the execution of this ability a third wind ring had started to form but it collapsed due to his inability to control mana.

But as brutal and direct as Desmond and Mei were, the truth is that both were more apt for one-on-one combat; When it came to group battles, it was Xiauyue who took the glory.

Her eyes always like calm lakes, the smile on her lips always calm while a soft murmur escaped from her lips; Xiauyue exclaimed: “You take too long, ”

Mei’s figure ceased to be one for a moment when aquatic projections of Ki emerged from her body and with another calm but ruthless whisper she spread pain: “”

With her hands covered in pink Ki, Xiauyue made fifteen palm strokes bloom like petals flying with the warm winds of spring; It was a pity that the people who received such blows did not appreciate the beauty of the moment.

Now being the only person standing, the Bai family member felt the enormous need to return home and beat the one who asked him to come and provoke Miao Xiauyue to test the Miao family’s deep waters; He hadn’t even said a word, and all of his men had been beaten until they cried for their mothers.

The sound of Mei walking cruelly on her opponent causing some bones to break brought the Bai family boy out of his daze, it was a pity that no one waited for him to apologize or run away before they decided to attack.

Gorgeously cleaning his clothes after dealing with the group of rioters Desmond turned and bowed cavalierly towards the two unique beauties behind him as he said: “The harvest has begun, can I disturb these beautiful ladies to accompany me on a walk in the mountains? The landscape will be much better with such beauties in it. ”
