CHAPTER 124: 124: SQUANDERING MEN (PART 1)_1

Dong Huiying was taken aback and then saw clearly, an axe was firmly embedded in the wild boar’s neck.

Immediately after, a figure darted over like lightning.

Liang Yuening pulled out the axe and unleashed a frenzied barrage of chops, the wild boar, extremely powerful, lifted its hooves and kicked Liang Yuening flying. Enraged by this human, the beast thought, what the hell, I’m just out for a casual stroll, and this damned human dares to covet my flesh, this is intolerable!

The wild boar, like a mad bull, charged ferociously towards Liang Yuening.

Liang Yuening’s lips pressed downwards, his face fierce, and then with a surge of energy, he leapt and astonishingly landed astride the wild boar’s back, his long legs firmly clamping the beast’s belly, his axe showing no mercy, viciously targeting the boar’s neck for the kill.

The wild boar crashed around, wailing non-stop, and the pig blood spraying from its neck, scalding hot, splattered on Liang Yuening’s face.

But his expression remained icy cold, showing no hesitation.

After what felt like an eternity, the dust settled, and Liang Yuening, gasping for breath, pulled out the axe. Like a warrior victorious in battle, he stood tall and chest out, but his body, face, and hands, were all covered in blood.

As the mountain breeze blew, his short hair fluttered, but then the next second—"ptooie—!"

He spat out a mouthful of blood and saliva.

Liang Yuening: "..."

"Pfft!"

Dong Huiying couldn’t help but chuckle, this guy couldn’t look cool for more than three seconds, he had been so brave earlier, but, ’ptooie’?

Alright then, alright, she rubbed her belly, which ached from laughter, and wiped away the tears of laughter from the corner of her eyes.

"Are you alright?"

"Hmph," turning his face away, he improvised with materials at hand, using vines to tie the boar’s four hooves. Then, hesitating for a moment, he looked back at her before slowly walking away with the wild boar weighing over a hundred pounds.

Yeah, over a hundred pounds, this is quite a haul!

His eyes flickered, but remembering Dong Huiying, who he left behind, he furrowed his brows.

Turning back once more.

He glanced at the wild boar, then at Dong Huiying, who remained where she was.

Liang Yuening: "—Damn it!"

With a huff, he dropped the vines.

"Let’s go!"

He strode like a meteor towards Dong Huiying, grabbed her by the elbow, "Come home with me!"

Dong Huiying’s eyes twitched.

Is this kid sick?

She shook off Liang Yuening with a cold expression, rubbing her arm where it hurt. Doesn’t he have any sense at all, does he think she’s made of iron? Sure, she’s quite strong, but she can still feel pain!

Liang Yuening was startled, then appeared somewhat at a loss.

"I, I—" He glanced at her arm, looking like a child who had done something wrong. He had grabbed her arm just now without controlling his strength properly; he hoped her arm was not hurt.

He looked at her anxiously, but at that moment he became tongue-tied, completely losing his usual sharp tongue.

Dong Huiying was unaware of Liang Yuening’s thoughts; she just felt annoyed.

"Don’t tell me that you’ve been following me the whole time." Otherwise, it wouldn’t be such a coincidence that the moment the wild boar appeared, he would show up, showing off his prowess and slaying left and right. His skills were still passable, targeting the boar’s weak spots, but it was also clear that he was a bit of a rough woodsman; the techniques in his moves were only suitable for hunting and still lacking in refinement.

Liang Yuening felt embarrassed, then fiercely glared at her, "Following you? I was worried you’d run off! What if you really had run off, what about Second Brother?"

"Why are you yelling?"

Her eyes reddened with anger, not from feeling aggrieved, but from irritation. It’s not a competition to see who can be louder, she was certainly not afraid of him!
