"I'll just say it." Xue Wufu didn't mind at all. "I'm going back with you guys now. Nothing happened. Xue Yan, you too, Jiang Yue is young and insensible, why were you being so careless? You actually brought Jiang Yue here, what if something happened?"

Xue Yan was speechless.

"Alright, alright. I know you're worried about me and all that." Xue Wufu pulled him over and ruffled his head.

Xue Yan pressed her eyebrows.

"Jiang Yue, what are you looking at?" Xue Wufu suddenly realized that Jiang Yue was looking around as she followed them.

"Nothing." Even though she said that she still looked around.

Xue Wufu was careless and really believed her. Xue Yan naturally didn't.

He could also tell that she was probably looking to see if there were any other prey to catch. After all, she had originally wanted to beat up the blind bear, but now she was held back by Wufu's matter. Now that Wufu was also here, she had to go back with him. There was no way she could carefully look for the blind bear's traces in this mountain without looking suspicious.

"Hey, we shouldn't go this way, we should go there." Xue Wufu stopped the two children and wanted them to turn around.

Jiang Yue and Xue Yan both looked at Xue Wufu in confusion.

Xue Wufu pointed in a direction and said, "I followed them into the mountain from there. Hunter Wu used to make a small path there, but recently, the grass has grown so deep that the path got blocked. If we don't walk over, we won't know that there's actually a small path into the mountain."

Only then did Jiang Yue and Xue Yan know the path that Hunter Wu took Xue Wufu into the mountains. It was a little far from the path they took to enter the mountains, which meant that Hunter Wu had taken many detours, and the terrain there was relatively flat.

They had directly cut through the thorns to enter the mountain with the shortest distance.

"It's too far," Jiang Yue said. "Let's go this way."

"This way is faster. Jiang Yue and I came in from here," Xue Yan said. That path would be further if they took a detour.

"How did you guys get into the mountain?" Xue Wufu asked, finally realizing something was wrong.

Jiang Yue passed the chopper to Xue Yan.

Xue Yan lowered his head and looked at the chopper in one hand and the sharpened stick in the other. He was silent for a while, then calmly lied to Xue Wufu, "I cut down all the grass and trees blocking the way to make a path. Actually, it's not really a path, but we could pass through it."

Xue Wufu didn't think that a seven-year-old child like him could do it in such a short time. He jumped up and praised his brother, "Xue Yan, you're so amazing! When I entered this mountain, I told them that this path might be closer, but hunter Wu said that when he was hunting, he couldn't come here at all because the mountain in front of us hadn't been developed yet, and there was almost no road to the foot of this mountain. He took a detour, so he made a small path to enter the mountain the long way!"

Xue Yan secretly let out a sigh of relief. If this was the fourth brother, he would definitely not be fooled.

"Here, I'll hold it for you." Xue Wufu took the chopper and the sharpened stick. "We're going downhill. You guys watch the road. Xue Yan, take care of our sister."

"Okay."

Xue Yan walked in front and looked back at Jiang Yue as he went down.

The road was narrow, and they were going downhill. The grass and trees on both sides of the road were overgrown, and the ground was full of things that could trip people. If Jiang Yue was really a three-and-a-half-year-old girl, she would have probably fallen after taking two steps. She would either be cut or poked by the grass.
