Someone's throat made a gurgling noise.
Although the prey the Twin Sunflower Hunting Group found was not rare, the sheer quantity was overwhelming, with Boggy and Seta bringing back around two thousand catties of goods each time they left the city.
And since it was right at the city gate, hauling it back was very convenient, and they could make a trip in no time—it was basically like picking up money.
This made many people envious, but those who dared to take on commissions at the risk of being attacked by the Golden Leopard were generally not small hunting groups.
Having watched for so long, they had also noticed that the beasts were being shot dead by people on the city walls, and clearly, the archers were Twin Sunflower Hunting Group members.
They couldn't bring themselves to snatch another hunting group's prey in front of everyone. However, what puzzled Wei Cha and the others was why those arrows were so powerful, some even exploding upon hitting the ground.
What kind of psychic power was this?
Once released, Wei Cha's Sea of Flames covered an even larger area, but the problem was that, despite his tireless training over the years, he could at most deploy the Sea of Flames five or six times in a battle.
The twin on the city wall, however, seemed to have an endless supply of psychic power.
The explosions outside the city had almost never ceased, but these sounds also alarmed more wild beasts nearby, drawing them in this direction.
Wei Cha stopped watching the commotion and turned to his teammates, "Let's go, we should start too. Even if we can't match them, we can't fall too far behind!"
As the Flame Tooth's members sprang into action, the other hunting groups also snapped out of their trance. No matter how many beasts others hunted, it meant money for them, and that had nothing to do with these groups.
They too seized the opportunity to hunt more beasts, which would not only alleviate the pressure on the Giant Curtain but also to trade them for money in the market.
Only the Harpist Hunting Group remained motionless.
With his mohawk, Tuck swallowed his saliva, "They're killing faster than they pick up. So many end up being eaten by the beasts that follow; it's such a waste. How about you ask them, Chief? We can help them pick up, then split the profits fifty-fifty, or even thirty-seventy."
Guli had yet to speak when Chi Qi already snorted coldly, "Is that all the ambition you have?"
Tuck's temper flared, and he turned, grabbing Chi Qi by the collar, "Hah?! Boggy and I are friends. What's wrong with helping each other? I never agreed to Boggy leaving in the first place; wasn't it you who always wanted to be vice-leader and forced Boggy out?!"
"I'm warning you, don't get carried away. I'll be watching you. Now, unleash your power," Guli said.
Chi Qi didn't say anything more. He chanted the spell, and in the next moment, a gust of wind whipped up the sand, enveloping the members of the Harpist Hunting Group.
Each commissioned Hunting Group had their own methods to deal with a Golden Leopard attack, but probably only Boggy truly hoped that the terrifying beast would appear again.
Although Ma Lu always came to exhibit his Meat Pigeon Ability.
But Boggy could distinctly feel that this time was different; her body was stronger than ever before.
Strength, stamina, speed, reaction – all had been enhanced to a new height.
The world seemed to slow down in her eyes, and now Boggy felt that she could defeat any opponent.
But she was also aware that this state would only last a few more hours, and once Ma Lu left, all the magic would fade, and she would revert to being a common hunter once again.

So if she wanted revenge, now was the best opportunity.
However, the Golden Leopard did not show up again, but something else was stirred. The massacre by Ma Lu and Sadie had finally drawn the attention of some powerful beasts
— the Emperor Redback Scorpion.
This scorpion was as large as a fully grown yak, its back a dark red, with a pair of median eyes in the middle and six side eyes at the front. Its tail was almost as sturdy as its body with a huge sting at the end, clearly not something to mess with!
And around it, there followed a swarm of scorpions. Although they didn't look as big as the Emperor, they were comparable in size to small dogs, like an army escorting their sovereign, coming in a menacing tide.
However, this tight formation was particularly suited for the [Bursting Divine Arrow]. By the time they reached the city gates, half of the smaller scorpions were already gone.
And they were particularly loyal, always clustering around the Emperor Redback Scorpion. As one batch fell, another took its place, as if guarding their monarch.
But because of this, each explosion also wounded the Emperor Redback Scorpion, which meant that by the time it reached the city gates, the imposing Emperor Redback Scorpion hadn't even had a chance to strike before it was dead.
