247: Chapter 247 The Intrusive White Wolf Deity_1 247: Chapter 247 The Intrusive White Wolf Deity_1 “Yo~ You all came out to welcome me~”

“Feng Yuan!”

Seeing the sky blue great bird dragging a huge wild boar as it flew over, it seemed that due to lack of strength, the bird could only skim the ground, the wild boar it clutched in its talons would occasionally smash against the terrain and create tremors, prompting Xiao Ji to drop the wild boar at a distance from the camp.

Turning to everyone, Feng Yuan said,

“Let’s deal with the wild boar over there, so we don’t mess up the sleeping area.”

After clapping his hands and watching Xiao Ji return to its original form, Feng Yuan walked up to the cave entrance and glanced inside.

Noticing the plant bed that Qi Chen had made, Feng Yuan, with a wicked grin, said to him,

“Your craftsmanship isn’t half bad~ The plant bed looks pretty delicate~”

“Even though I don’t know what you’re implying, I feel like you’re not saying anything nice.”

“Not at all~ You’re overthinking it~”

“Feng Yuan!

Didn’t I tell you not to take action?”

Vociferously scolded by Zhong Liuyan, Feng Yuan, somewhat sheepishly, glanced at Xiao Ji, who was crouching down, and said,

“It wasn’t me who did it; Xiao Ji went after the big wild boar on its own.”

Looking at Feng Yuan with suspicion, Zhong Liuyan shook her head and said,

“Forget it.

Since you’ve already caught it, there’s no need to fret over it.”

Noticing Feng Yuan standing on the side, not helping, Pei Yu said with some dissatisfaction,

“Aren’t you going to come and help?”

“If you think food that has been touched by the power of death is still edible, then I can help.”

Looking at the pitch-black light blade emerging from Feng Yuan’s hand, Qi Chen said with mild surprise,

“What about the sickle you usually use?”

Feng Yuan glanced at Qi Chen and said with an irritation,

“When have you ever seen me use a sickle for this kind of thing?

I’ve always used a small knife, okay.”

“You didn’t bring your small knife?”

“Of course, don’t you see I didn’t bring anything?”

Seeing Feng Yuan’s unabashed attitude, Qi Chen didn’t know what to say.

As Zhong Liuyan and the others were processing the wild boar, she said,

“The person on night watch tonight, Feng Yuan, you’ll go first.

You have to report to the special task force tomorrow, right?”

“Yeah, I should be leaving early in the morning.”

“Then you take the first watch, to avoid impacting your work tomorrow, as for the rest…”

As everyone listened to Zhong Liuyan’s arrangements, they had no objections.

While everyone was busy dealing with the wild boar, Feng Yuan took Xiao Ji and slipped into the forest.

After a long while, just as everybody was getting ready to make lunch, Feng Yuan came back holding a bunch of strange plants, with Xiao Ji closely following.

Spotting what Feng Yuan had in his hands, Dou Yanlan whispered,

“Seasonings?”

“Here, seasonings.

You guys weren’t planning on cooking without any seasonings, were you?”

After preparing the seasonings, everyone ate a lunch that wasn’t particularly delicious.

Pei Yu, somewhat discontent, said,

“Why does this damn competition allow only the basic survival tools and nothing else!”

“If that were the case, the gap between wealthy people and ordinary people would become insurmountable.

After all, large spatial backpacks and outdoor survival equipment aren’t cheap.”

“Of course, if theft were allowed, that would be a different story.”

Listening to Dou Yanlan’s words, Qi Chen and the others initially agreed until the last sentence made them suddenly feel chills go down their spines.

While feeding Xiao Ji, Feng Yuan said,

“If the high school division dared to do that, believe me, even Elder Li wouldn’t be able to withstand the upcoming public outrage.”

“No water…

I remember there are no lakes on the mountain, though there seems to be a pond down the hill, quite far away…”

Looking at his greasy hands, Feng Yuan muttered lowly, and then, as if struck by an idea, his lips slightly curved up and he said,

“You all done eating?”

“Yep, why?”

“There’s going to be rain~”

Looking at the clear sky, Zhong Liuyan and the others were puzzled as they looked towards Feng Yuan.

Qi Chen suddenly realized what was about to happen and quickly shouted,

“Don’t do that!”

Just then, a wolf howl echoed in the distance, large clouds rapidly formed in the sky, and everyone hurriedly ran into the cave while Ah Mu used vines to pull the firewood Zhong Liuyan and the others had collected into the cave.

Shortly after, thunder roared, lightning flashed, and a downpour burst forth from the heavens.

“What in the world is going on?

Who unleashed a torrential rain spell out of nowhere, and why is it so powerful?”

Liao Yu, who took shelter in the rest room, looked at her uniform, somewhat wet from the rain, and complained, but Ye Hanlei sighed and said,

“Most likely it’s Feng Yuan’s doing.”

“Him?

I recall he doesn’t have a water-type spirit beast, right?”

“Don’t forget that wolf howl.

He’s got a close relationship with the White Wolf Deity, and the amount of rain fits with a Divine Beast using a special move.”

Looking at the downpour outside the window, Liao Yu said somewhat speechlessly,

“This feels like cheating, brining a Divine Beast directly into play.

But even with the rain, it shouldn’t affect those spirit beasts used to test combat capabilities, right?”

“I don’t know, I’m also unclear on what he’s really thinking.”

Inside the cave, when Feng Yuan saw everyone looking at him, he raised his hands in surrender and said,

“Why are you all staring at me?

It wasn’t my doing.

But isn’t the pouring rain just perfect for washing your hands?”

Seeing Feng Yuan wanting to walk to the cave entrance, Dou Yanlan revealed a smile.

She cooed to the cotton in her arms.

The rain falling from the sky seemed to encounter an invisible conduit, quickly forming a stream that flowed into the cave and then back out.

After washing his hands within the water, Feng Yuan addressed the others,

“Aren’t you guys going to wash your hands?”

While washing up, Qi Chen said helplessly,

“Aren’t you going a bit overboard?

Making the White Wolf Deity use its rain summoning special move just for washing hands.”

“Maybe the White Wolf Deity felt the weather was too hot and needed a rain to cool things down~”

“In the dead of winter, complaining about heat?”

“The White Wolf Deity does have thicker fur~”

After a while, the heavy rain began to weaken.

It was then that Feng Yuan suddenly exclaimed,

“Stay alert!

Something’s coming our way!”

Hearing Feng Yuan’s warning, everyone quickly directed their spirit beasts to get ready for combat outside the cave.

Feng Yuan saw everyone looking towards the entrance, opened his mouth to sigh and kept quiet.

Clang!

Clang!

Clang!

The sound of something striking against hard surfaces suddenly came from all around the rock walls.

Only then did the people react.

Dou Yanlan hurriedly said,

“Cotton!

Use the psychic barrier to stop them!”

Cotton swished its tail and its eyes lit up with a blue glow.

The next instant the light vanished and Cotton looked at Dou Yanlan with some confusion.

Feng Yuan laughed and said,

“I’ve already reinforced the rock walls for you guys.”

“When did you do that?”

“Of course, right from the start.”

“Sorry…”

Realizing she overlooked something, Zhong Liuyan apologized to everyone.

Dou Yanlan calmly said,

“No need to apologize, none of us noticed that detail.”

Listening to the continuous impact noises, Pei Yu looked at Feng Yuan and said,

“How sturdy is the reinforcement you did?

Don’t tell me it’s going to be breached.”

Feng Yuan spread his hands and a rainbow crystal rose from his palm, pointing to it he said,

“I’m not too sure how sturdy this crystal barrier actually is.”

Seeing Feng Yuan’s smug expression, Qi Chen looked towards the creatures running here through the rain and said,

“It’s not just diggers, there are other things coming our way too.”

Narrowing his eyes, Feng Yuan looked into the distance and said,

“Grass lizards, mixed with wood lizards, you guys can handle it.”

Feng Yuan waved his scepter and a semi-transparent rainbow-hued barrier enveloped everyone.

Seeing Feng Yuan seemingly not intending to act, Qi Chen and the others quickly commanded their spirit beasts to confront the encroaching grass lizards in the rain.

Noticing that everyone was fighting on their own and only Dou Yanlan was occasionally directing Cotton to cover for others, Feng Yuan smiled softly and said under his breath,

“The team’s ability to work together isn’t very good~”

“You have no right to say that about them.”

“Eh?

Captain Yang, when did you stealthily make your way here?”

Noticing Captain Yang, who had appeared beside him without him knowing, Feng Yuan scratched his head.

Glancing over and finding that nobody had noticed her, she whispered,

“Just now.

Although there’s an issue with how you set up camp in the cave, you managed to remedy this weakness, so I’ll give you a pass.

But as for teamwork in battle…”

Watching the group fighting individually, Captain Yang shook her head.

After a while, they finally managed to knock out the invading grass lizards, and it was only then that Qi Chen and the others noticed Captain Yang, who had mysteriously appeared at some point.
