He was hunting with the children today. Shuang Yun had specially chosen a familiar place to hunt.
He first led the children on two hunts and personally demonstrated how to catch prey.
This was the first time the wolf cubs had seen a hunt up close. They were all excited.
After catching two prey, Shuang Yun decided to give the children a chance to do it themselves.
He grabbed a lone red-furred boar. Instead of biting its neck, he threw it in front of the children.
“It’s up to you guys now.”
The red-haired wild boar rolled on the ground and immediately twisted its fat body to escape.
Big Goody was the first to rush forward and slap the red-haired wild boar’s big butt.
There were three bloody marks on the red-haired wild boar’s butt, and it cried out in pain.
Dos, Tres, and Little Monster immediately surrounded the red-haired wild boar from four directions. Each of them scratched it.
The enraged red boar finally went berserk.
It charged at Little Mosnter recklessly!
Shuang Yun stood up and was about to save Little Monster when he saw that Big Goody had already rushed forward. She hugged Little Monster and rolled away to avoid the collision with the red-haired wild boar.
Dos and Tres took the opportunity to pounce on the red-haired wild boar.
Big Goody immediately turned around and rushed forward to bite the red-haired wild boar’s neck!
Blood splattered all over the four of them.
They had finally killed their prey.
The wolf cubs all heaved a sigh of relief and sat on the ground, panting heavily.
Shuang Yun walked over. He flipped over the red-haired wild boar’s corpse and frowned. “The fur on its body has been badly scratched by you. I’m afraid it can’t be used anymore.”
The wolf cubs lowered their wolf ears and looked regretful.
Just now, all they could think about was killing the wild boar. They had no time to think about whether the boar’s fur could be used.
Shuang Yun glanced at them. “After you’re done hunting, the first task is to clean up the scene immediately. If you really can’t clean up, leave as soon as possible with your prey. There are many ferocious beasts in the forest. The smell of blood will attract them. If a ferocious beast had suddenly jumped out and attacked you just now, you’d definitely become its food in your current state.”
When the wolf cubs heard this, they quickly got up and assumed a defensive posture. They looked around, afraid that a ferocious beast would suddenly appear nearby.
Shuang Yun said, “I’ve already checked the vicinity just now. There are no ferocious beasts. Hurry up and remove the fur and meat of your prey.”
The wolf cubs immediately got busy.
This was the first time they were dealing with prey. Their movements were very unfamiliar. After a long time, they finally cut off all the meat of the red-haired wild boar.
Shuang Yun had a contractual ring that could store the meat in his space, but he didn’t do so. Instead, he taught the children how to pack fresh meat in animal hide and bring it back.
After dealing with the prey, Shuang Yun broke off four of the wild boar’s teeth. After washing them, he gave them to the wolf cubs.
“This is a souvenir of your first successful hunt. Keep it well.”
The wolf pups were happy, but they couldn’t take human form yet. It was difficult for them to hold such small teeth. They could easily lose them.
Shuang Yun drilled a hole in the end of the animal teeth with his claws, threaded some rope into them, and hung them around the necks of the wolf cubs.
Shuang Yun led them to a nearby stream and said, “Remember to wash the blood off your bodies before you go home. Don’t scare your mother.”
The wolf cubs jumped into the stream one after another.
In the blink of an eye, the furry white furballs became four drenched dogs.
After they were clean, they jumped ashore and shook their bodies hard.
Water droplets flew everywhere.
Shuang Yun then brought the children home.
When they saw the rock mountain, they realized that many beasts had gathered at the foot of the mountain. They could vaguely hear cries.
Shuang Yun turned around and said to the children, “Go home first. I’ll go and see what’s going on.”
Big Goody agreed and led her brothers into the rock mountain.
Shuang Yun squeezed into the crowd and saw three koala beasts in tattered clothes kneeling on the ground. They were crying and begging, “Please take us in. We finally escaped and have nowhere to go.”
The person standing in front of them was Jiu Yuan.
Jiu Yuan looked troubled, not knowing how to resolve the matter. When he saw Shuang Yun arrive, his eyes lit up and he immediately strode forward.
“Patriarch, you’re finally back!”
Shuang Yun asked, “What happened?”
Jiu Yuan explained, “We were busy in the fields just now when these three guys suddenly ran out of the forest and rushed into the temporary residence, scaring many beasts. After I received the news, I immediately led people to chase them out of the temporary residence, but they refused to leave. I can’t do anything about them now.”
Shuang Yun looked at the three koala beasts kneeling on the ground. “Who are you? Why did you suddenly come to the rock mountain?”
The oldest of them cried, “We had no choice! Our tribe was attacked by monsters, and many of our people were bitten to death. Some of our people also became man-eating monsters after being bitten. The three of us tried our best to escape from those monsters. We had no choice but to come to the Rock Wolf Tribe. Please save us!”
Hearing his account, a bad guess appeared in Shuang Yun’s mind.
At this moment, Huai Shan’s voice suddenly interrupted. “The monsters they’re talking about must be beasts who were infected with the dead blood disease!”
Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw Huai Shan strutting over under the escort of his guards.
Although Shuang Yun did not have a good impression of Huai Shan, what Huai Shan had just said was what Shuang Yun was guessing.
Some of the beasts looked terrified when they heard the words ‘dead blood disease’, but the younger beasts did not know what dead blood disease was and still looked confused.
Huai Shan raised his chin and looked around arrogantly. “The dead blood disease is an epidemic brought about by the demon race. Once ordinary beasts are infected with dead blood disease, they’ll either die or become slaves to the demon race. They’ll become monsters who only know how to kill.”

When the young beasts heard this, they did not believe it.
They were all beasts who had just reached adulthood and did not know how terrifying demons and the dead blood disease were.

It wasn’t until some of the older beasts beside them whispered about how terrifying demons and the dead blood disease were that they knew fear.
Huai Shan looked at everyone’s terrified expressions and looked satisfied.
He continued, “As terrifying as the demons and the dead blood disease are, they’re not completely invincible. The temple’s healing spells can treat those infected with dead blood disease.”
