why don't you find out yourself~

the group then started to move, while each of them dispersed through different parts to search for beasts.

"Brother Yang, what do you think? isn't it beautiful?" Wang Min asked while picking up a random flower from the bush.

"Sister Min, if you ask me while holding this, I must say, it pales in comparison to your charm," he said as he got even closer to her.

"...come on, brother Yang!" she turned her head away while blushing.

'this girl is really innocent, I mustn't make any harsh decision that might hurt her.' he thought to himself and nodded his head.

"Everyone! listen to me I found the lair of a crimson fox. I think we should go over there." A hut shouted from a little deeper inside the forest.

everyone turned to see the guy who was shouting from a distance. all of them perked their ears because the crimson fox was considered a lucky for beast tamers, thus almost every beast tamer had one.

"A crimson fox? Are you sure? they are pretty rare to find you know..." Yang Kai was saying but was cut off by one of Ning Cai's subordinates.

"hmmph! what do you know huh? just shut your mouth."

Yang Kai felt like kicking his balls, as he looked at the man's dramatic and disgusting expression. and decided to stay quiet for some time, for the greater good.

soon with everyone, Yang Kai followed the guy to the 'supposed to be Lair'. as they walked past the deep bushes to find a beautiful lake.

"Wonderful!" said the girls in a unison, looking at the beautiful lotuses on the water, and listening to the chirping of birds.

"Look over there sisters, looks like it is cultivating." Yang Kai pointed at a toad who was sitting on a Lotus leaf in a lotus position with its eyes closed.

"heehehe... Brother Yang, you're funny." said one of the two girls from before, while giggling. the other girls also laughed, including Fan Guo.

'huh? are you blind sisters? it is clearly sitting in a lotus position, and its eyes are closed.' Yang Kai thought inwardly but only smiled it off outside.

"Brother Ning, see, there it is..." the guy from before was on Ning Cai's side, as he pointed his finger at a cave on the mountain beside the Pond.

"huh? why do you think that is a crimson fox Lair? not your grandfather's mansion?" Yang Kai cringed looking at the guy. the girls rolled over the ground holding their stomachs.

"haha...haahaa" Fan Guo was the one to laugh more, while the guy is getting flustered from embarrassment.

"Y-You..." the guy stomped his feet and rushed at Yang Kai. but suddenly felt a hand on his shoulder.

"let it go... Huo Jin, he is not worth your time, tell me why do you think that is a crimson fox's lair?" that was Ning Cai's hands. he decided not to push this matter because he found it a bit funny too.

"I got this from there." he extended his hand and showed a few strands of crimson hair, then gave Yang Kai a death glare.

suddenly Yang Kai felt a chill down his spine, 'I was going to ask if these are his grandmother's pu.... forget it!' he exclaimed inside his head, putting aside his dirty mind.

"This is indeed a crimson fox's fur, this must be its Lair." Ning Cai and others also nodded in agreement and decided to enter the cave.

"Brother Ning, wait!" Yang Kai called him out, then put his hand under his chin in a thinking manner. "I think we shouldn't enter."

hearing him, Huo Jin frowned, "You damn, Kai, do you have a problem with everything I say?" he gritted his teeth, showing veins on his neck.

'looks like I hit a sore spot, with that?' Yang Kai wryly smiled, then, turned to Ning Cai, "Senior Brother Ning Cai, don't get me wrong, but this cave looks deep and creepy if we all go inside and face something more dangerous then, it would be troublesome to fight with a lot of people in such a cave, and who knows is someone attacks from outside, we will be sandwiched." Yang Kai said with his eyes closed and had a profound expression on his face.

"Sandw- What?" Fan Guo did not get the phrase and asked, but Yang Kai dismissed her saying, "Ignore little things sister Fan Guo, try to get my point! don't you agree!" he grabbed her hand and said dramatically.

"Y-You are right! and who can say, that this is a Crimson Fox was not a two-tailed" Fan Guo blushed slightly and spoke.

Ning Cai and the others gathered and discussed a bit.

"that's settled then," saying that, Ning Cai and the guys stood at the entrance of the cave, and Yang Kai and the girls stood at a bit distance.

"What is this bastard doing there?!" another guy of Ning Cai's subordinates exclaimed, looking at Yang Kai, with the girls.

"What? are you planning to leave helpless girls alone in this wilderness? Didn't your parents teach you anything?" Yang Kai again, Cringed dramatically, making others chuckle.

"Y-You!" and that's how he pissed off another guy, without even saying much.

Ning Cai looked at Yang Kai with a cold gaze then turned to the cave. "Don't he would only be a burden, it comes with us. Besides, the girls are 'Veery' safe with him." he said with a mocking smile and walked inside the cave.

"Hahaha... You're right Brother Ning." the guys laughed a bit before following him inside.

Yang Kai looked at their departing back and gritted his teeth, "mocking my inability huh? just wait! When I cure my little brother, I will show you why I was so loved by the female and hated by the male." he thought to himself.

Fixing his crooked expression, and replacing it with his charming smile, he turned to the ladies.

...

"Brother Ning? Are you sure? That will be alright?" Asked Huo Jin, with visible anger on his face.

"haa? What could happen? even if he wasn't impotent, what can a 5th stage elementary profound realm kid do? The girls are gonna beat him up if he tries anything funny. Especially Fan Guo. Hahaha..." Ning Cai laughed hysterically, lift in up the guys' mood.

"Brother Ning, look! Footprints, these look like the crimson fox's paws." One of the guys pointed at the visible footprints on the ground.

"He Xue, look carefully, there are some other foot marks too..." Ning Cai put his hands on the ground to compare the size, which was around the same size as the mark.

"it doesn't look like Crimson fox, Maybe a Two-tails? That's rare in this wilderness." the guys discussed what to do. The two-tailed beast was a natural evolution of the crimson fox, it could be as strong as a Spirit profound realm.

"What do you guys say? we have treasures, if the situation gets out of control, we can always save our life. but I don't think we are going to come across a crimson fox's Lair again..." Ning Cai looked at the other guys and spoke with a deep voice.

Huo Jin and He Xue went to his side putting their hands on Ning Cai's shoulder, "Brother Ning is right! we should go deeper inside, we might get lucky and catch more than one crimson fox." they tried to oil him well.

the other two also nodded and decided to take a look, while they might able to catch it, there weren't more casualties than it seemed.

Ning Cai tightened up his belt of the robe and fixed his scabbard. then without wasting any time, they proceeded to enter the deeper parts of the cave.

...

"haha... Brother Yang, you're a bad man." Wang Min said as he tried to flirt as they were sitting beside the pond while their feet were in the water.

the two girls from before sat on his right, while Wang Min on his left, and Fan Guo.

they were all chatting and laughing, even Fan Guo, who was rude at first talking to him.

"Umm... Brother Yang? if you don't mind me asking, are you really impotent?" asked the girl on his right, while slightly leaning forward and turning her head.

When she asked, she expected him to be embarrassed or flustered. but betraying her expectations, he had a playful smile, "umm... why don't you find out yourself?~" he said as he placed his right hand on her chin, slightly lifting it, and he leaned forward.

a tinge hue of redness spread across her white cheeks. as she involuntarily closed her eyes and parted her lips a bit.

Wang Min Closed her eyes in embarrassment. and Fan Guo gulped hearing his seductive voice.

then he slowly moved his face to her ear, "I was just joking." he said and pulled out, leaving behind a dumbfounded girl.

"anhhh... You bad man! you..." the girl we fully red with embarrassment, while she kept punching his right upper arm.

the other girls giggled and Wang Min seemed relieved.

he then put his arms around the girl on his right, then, whispered something in her ear.

She clenched her fists and closed her eyes to hide her embarrassment.
