Chapter 77 Hidden Danger (Slight R-18)
The tactic that Duncan employed in his hunt for the cannibals was a truly tried and tested tactic used by the hunters.
First, one injured a beast severely, but not mortally, and then put them out in an open field. The cries of the injured beast would attract other predators, who would sense its weakness and rush to kill it. When the predators entered the hunting zone, the hunters will kill it with an arrow or a spear from the distance.
This was an effective method to hunt in the wild. The only problem was coming across powerful beasts that would be able to escape the arrows and spears. Usually, this tactic was not ideal to hunt cautious beasts or beasts that specialized in speed. The moment they sensed something wrong, these beasts would escape without looking back.
However, if this was used to hunt the cannibals, Duncan had confidence that it would work. This way, he didn't need to search for these detestable things. They would deliver themselves to him.
This saved both his energy and his need to find these things.
And when they come, Duncan would be waiting on the sidelines to make their stay here permanent. Smiling victoriously, Duncan found an ideal spot for him to hide and waited for the things to take the bait.
The only downside was that the cannibal's wails were irritating to his ears and that rotting stench that accompanied them. However, Duncan had now become used to the stench and his nose was almost desensitized at this point. The ear part was a necessary sacrifice though…

Liang Tianye sat on a comfortable sofa sipping wine in his abode. He was completely naked and had a relaxed smile on his face. There was contentment in his eyes and a special glow on his face.
Feng Feixuan sat on his lap as she too sipped a chalice of wine in her hands as well. She was also naked like Liang Tianye. As she sipped the wine, she enjoyed the rough manner in which Liang Tianye's free hand was groping one of her tits.
Her thighs were rubbing against Liang Tianye's manhood and teasing it playfully. The lust in her eyes was visible to anyone who had the guts to look at them. Despite her disheveled hair and a content glow on her cheeks, it seemed as if she wasn't done playing with Liang Tianye yet.
The duo didn't have a care in the world as they sat tasting their wine. In any righteous sect, such an interaction between an elder of the sect and the Vice-Sect Master would have seen them banished.
Even dao companions, who are true couples in all shapes and forms, would never act this boldly with each other in a righteous sect. The pair had no sense of shame in them.
However, this was a demonic sect.
And over here, indulging in carnal pleasure or any other kinds of perversions was something that others wouldn't bat an eye on. After all, if the entire sect was filled with people who took lives at the drop of a dime, such things could be considered tame in comparison with what most would get up to in their free time.
Liang Tianye groped Feng Feixuan's tits wantonly as he sipped his wine. Meanwhile, Feng Feixuan wasn't idle either. Apart from teasing Liang Tianye's manhood, her other hand was tracing the contours of muscles that Liang Tianye sported with her nails.
"Vice-Sect Master, you truly know how to take care of a woman like me,"Feng Feixuan purred as Liang Tianye pinched her nipple and played with it. "I am glad that you decided to use my playground to train your disciple. Who would have imagined that such a good thing would come out of that?"
"Not me," Liang Tianye chuckled and threw the wine chalice in his hand away.
He turned around and buried his face into Feng Feixuan's tits causing her to scream in excitement. The chalice in her hand almost slipped, but she managed to hold on to it.
Feng Feixuan emptied the chalice in her hand and threw it away as well. With both her hands free, Feng Feixuan directed them towards Liang Tianye's manhood as she arched her back and enjoyed his ministrations.
"Ssshhh ah,,,, I hope…. sssss…you don't regret….ah….ummmmm…sending that brat….ah…. ah…. ah…..there," Feng Feixuan worded out her thoughts amidst Liang Tianye's mouth attacking her nipples relentlessly.
Liang Tianye took his sweet time to answer that. To him, sampling those luscious nipples were more important than worrying about his disciple. If not for the need of the sect, he wouldn't really care about that brat after his disappointing performance.
"You do realize that some of my playthings there are in the later stages of Qi Condensation realms, don't you?" Feng Feixuan asked playfully when Liang Tianye was done with his feasting.
Liang Tianye merely raised his eyebrows at that.
"I heard that your disciple only recently started cultivating. Is it smart to send him into such danger?" Feng Feixuan purred in Liang Tianye's ears and nuzzled him.
"If that brat dies to a mere Qi Condensation realm cannibal, then he is truly trash. I do not need a burden like him," Liang Tianye grunted as he felt Feng Feixuan's hands envelop his manhood.
The moment Liang Tianye said that, the entire body of Feng Feixuan stilled for a second. The next moment, she looked up at him with hooded eyes that were radiating hunger.
"When you say stuff like that, it really arouses me," Feng Feixuan whispered and smashed her luscious lips on Liang Tianye's mouth unceremoniously.
Liang Tianye enjoyed the sensation of Feng Feixuan's lips on him. However, that didn't mean that his hands were idle. They grabbed the back of her head and held her there as he went tasting those lips to his heart's content.
Just like that, another war between the pair began.

Duncan's plan went without a hitch initially.
With the perfect bait set up at the ideal location, Duncan soon found himself killing the incoming cannibals with relative ease. The cannibals had a one-track mind. They didn't pause to think why the other one was wounded so badly, yet still living.
They only saw the delicious meal waiting for them and forgot to check their surroundings. That proved to be a fatal mistake as Duncan used that opportunity to chop their heads off with relative ease.
By now, he was feeling a little bored with this method of hunting. Sure, the number of cannibals who had fallen at his hands had increased drastically. Especially, once the corpses started piling up, they started luring more and more cannibals.
But the flip side was, he wasn't feeling any challenge in hunting them, to be honest. Not to mention the stench that was emanating from all the bodies. Just the rotten smell of one cannibal was enough to nauseate Duncan. With more than ten bodies piled up, Duncan was almost on the verge of quitting this hunt just because of the stench alone.
Not everything was a loss, however. Analyzing the incoming cannibals, Duncan was able to confirm at least two things. One, their range of hearing was really large as they seemed to be able to hear the wailing of the wounded cannibal from a long distance.
The other important discovery that Duncan found was that these cannibals had very sensitive noses as well. They were able to sniff out his hiding place just from the smell that came from him several times, despite the stench emanating from the other rotting corpses.
However, it was too late for them at that moment as Duncan would already be in action. Even a split second was enough to determine the winner in a fight between cultivators. And Duncan had more than a second's advantage with his tactics.
But, all things weren't meant to last forever.
Just as Duncan was contemplating ending this hunt, due to the stench and permeating boredom, Duncan ran into a big problem. Duncan didn't know if it was the rotting stench from the corpses was too strong or any other reason, but as time passed, the incoming cannibals were beginning to find him faster and faster.
Eventually, one of the cannibals that were lured was able to spot him immediately as soon as it stepped foot into the area. The moment it identified him, instead of retreating or roaring angrily as other cannibals were acting, this particular cannibal made a beeline for him.
Duncan was initially taken aback that his surprise opportunity was taken away and was unable to react immediately. By then, the cannibal had neared him. Duncan had to hastily dodge its attack as a result of his negligence.
But Duncan wasn't fazed for long. He redoubled his efforts and attacked the cannibal. Much to his surprise, the cannibal was able to easily able to avoid his attack and came back with a retaliatory swipe.
Duncan dodged it and took a step back to assess his opponent. But, the opponent didn't give him that time. The cannibal once more attacked him causing Duncan to block using his sword.
The moment the cannibal's attack connected with his sword, Duncan knew that this one was different than the others that had come before.
