PATH OF THE STAR HUNTER

263 Chapter 263 Entering the Mountains of a Thousand Beasts

Desmond would swear he saw Xiauyue and Mei blush for just a second before having to jump back, dodging Mei’s devastating blow and Xiauyue’s graceful kick; landing safely a couple of meters behind Desmond wiped the sweat from his forehead and cursed without bothering to lower his voice: “Couple of irrational women, not only do you not take a compliment but you also despise my kindness by allowing you to walk almost alone in the forest so you can flirt with each other as much as you want. ”

Hearing the shameless complaint of Desmond who always took the opportunity to feast his eyes on their bodies, Mei and Xiauyue wanted to be able to hit him but also understood that Desmond was sincere when he talked about giving them a chance to have a romantic atmosphere between them.

With the time they had spent together recently certain things had become obvious, such as Desmond’s lustful nature or the romantic attraction between Xiauyue and Mei; But due to shyness and inexperience, both girls had had a difficult time trying to become intimate with each other.

Normally it was Desmond who took pity on both girls and took the initiative to give either of them a slight push or directly involve the couple is something that forced them to be close to each other.

To tell the truth, the relationship dynamics between the three were strange, to say the least, but it worked, Mei and Xiauyue used Desmond as a bridge between them and depended on him as an older brother while Desmond used the girls to comfort his lonely heart.

Although uncomfortable situations like this often arose and not wanting to waste time Desmond took the opportunity to change the subject: “Well ladies, details aside, we should be making our way; I have the impression that we will end up wasting enough time with nosy people to afford to waste more time here. ”

Hearing the hidden nuances in Desmond’s words, Xiauyue and Mei regained their seriousness, they were not stupid, events like this were the perfect opportunity to get rid of enemies or competitors without repercussions from the sect and they had many enemies that would line up to cut off their heads if given the chance.

Such a thing was only natural, the simple act of bearing the Miao family name put enough targets on Xiauyue’s back while Mei Fei Long made her just the right amount of enemies on her way to becoming a core disciple.

Desmond from his side, it could be said that he was the person who had actively made the fewest enemies in his day-to-day life but it was likely that he had enough people wanting him dead just for getting involved in matters related to Xiauyue and Mei.

.....

And as if to prove this to be true, a small group of three individuals showed up on Desmond’s trail and the girls barely made their way into the mountains.

The irony was that this small group were in no way people who had a bloody rivalry or revenge against anyone, they were just a group of boys in love who wanted to fight Desmond for the right to accompany Mei Fei Long during this event.

Even Mei was surprised when she heard this, she wasn′t used to attracting the attention of the opposite sex, little did she know that given her beautiful features and sensual body, there were not few boys secretly in love with her; but no one dared to say anything until now that someone like Desmond was around her.

The second surprise of the day came when Desmond responded with a serious but flirtatious tone: “It seems that there is a misunderstanding, you will see handsome boys like you are more my type”

Filled with utter disbelief and an uncomfortable feeling the trio of idiots in love failed to react in time when Desmond appeared before them and with an overwhelming impulse brutally struck them all.

Desmond’s right knee was still pushing and fracturing the first boy’s sternum when the other two had just begun to process what was happening and by the time they both wanted to do something Desmond had already pounced on the second boy, dropping a combination of fist and elbow punches that took him out of combat in an instant.

The third boy was so scared to see Desmond decimate his companions in an instant that he ended up standing there as Desmond approached him; The poor boy was lucky that Desmond instead of hitting him said something to him while pointing to his two unconscious companions: “Take your friends back to the sect, they are not ready for an event like this, you did not just go out to provoke someone whose strength you did not know for a foolish thing but you also lowered their guard because their enemy said something unexpected, come back ... the people out there will eat you without even leaving your bones ”

Intimidated by the murderous aura that Desmond let out at the end, the boy only nodded fearfully before running off to pick up his companions and run back to the sect, the boy felt offended and humiliated by everything that had happened but still had Than admitting that Desmond was right and that he had probably done them a favor by sending them back.

“Why are you looking at me like that?” Desmond ended up asking when noticing that both Xiauyue and Mei were looking at him strangely.

“Putting that weird comment of yours aside at first, it’s weird of you to be so nice to strangers; To be honest I thought you would hurt them a lot more assuming you don’t kill them. “Without hiding her opinion, Xiauyue answered honestly, after all, she had seen how ruthless Desmond could be when he dealt with enemies.

But contrary to what Xiauyue expected, Desmond responded quite frankly and gave a quite emotional reason: “They didn’t do us any real harm, nor did they want to do it to us, they were just a bunch of fools in love and I can’t blame them for trying; frankly, I could also do something so silly if it meant being able to date a girl like Mei Fei Long ... you are not the only one who notices her charm, keep that in mind Xiauyue ”

After an awkward silence where both girls blushed for their own reasons, the trio continued on their way into the mountains; at some point along the way the trio even stopped being surprised when new groups of strangers and acquaintances came to them looking for a fight.

Desmond even went so far as to give up on dealing with those idiots and keep wasting his precious mana and without any shame in the world, he started letting the girls handle the obstacles.

Which only worked until they ran into a slightly different obstacle in the form of a massive creature whose appearance could only be the result of an affair between a T-Rex and a killer wasp.

Putting aside the creature’s menacing appearance, just the serious look on the girls’ faces, Desmond realized just how dangerous the creature was... until he saw both girls drool.

“Mei, are you thinking the same as me?” Xiauyue spoke after swallowing audibly.

“Tyrannical honey? Shall we divide it into equal parts? ” Mei replied whose eyes had already turned a metallic blue with razor-sharp pupils.

What followed can only be described as animal abuse, the cruelty displayed by the girls against what Desmond now considered a poor defenseless creature was something that gave the poor hunter chills.

Worst of all, the creature that was called was strong enough that Desmond will have a difficult time dealing with it; but both girls had abused the creature as if they were adult lions playing with sick cats.

It was only when Desmond watched the girls methodically dismember the carcass of the tyrant bee that he understood the girls’ unreasonably violent attitude.

According to what the girls explained during the collection process, the Tyrant Bee was an extremely coveted creature by martial artists due to this creature having a taste for consuming all kinds of precious flowers and making honey from them in preparation for feeding their young.

And from the girls’ almost fanatical attitude as they carefully stored every last drop of honey they collected, it was obvious that honey was extremely valuable; although he knew from the girls that the main reason they acted like this was that honey was not only valuable but extremely delicious.

Slightly speechless Desmond offered to store almost half a ton of honey they extracted in his notebook to avoid paying a percentage of it to the sect and to Desmond’s surprise the first to agree was Xiauyue.

“Don’t seem so surprised, I am loyal only to my family and myself; the sect has never given me anything that I have not earned myself “, Xiauyue exclaimed with a little hidden indignation and a grudge that betrayed the difficulties she had to go through to have her current prestige.

Mei approached discreetly to tenderly hold Xiauyue’s hand, who did not refuse the gesture and instead enjoyed it; on the other hand, Desmond seeing the couple only sighed missing their home.
