The Beautiful CEO's Super Soldier King-Chapter 940 [The Hunting Girl]

The old man, surprised, couldn’t help but ask, "Young friend, you indeed have keen insight. My granddaughter’s saber is indeed a Kazhuo Knife from the Zang Family. But how did you determine we are here to hunt just by seeing a knife?"

Ye Chenfeng smiled and said, "It’s made with eleven kinds of solutions and quenched to nearly 56 hardness. You can stick it into a stone crevice and do pull-ups. It’s better than the Japanese Katana, or Spain’s Jungle King! This knife is simply a deadly weapon, it would be a pity not to use it to kill. But looking at the behavior of you two, you are undoubtedly from a noble family, calm and composed, not like bloodthirsty people. Since you and your granddaughter are strolling leisurely here, I can only think you’re out hunting!"

"Haha, young friend, your analysis is brilliant, clap, clap, clap..." The old man couldn’t help but applaud.

"Moreover, there is more than one expert surrounding you, ensuring your safety. Being watched by them is truly uncomfortable, like being eyed by a Poison Snake about to attack me!" Ye Chenfeng said again.

"Haha, all of you come out, you’ve already been seen through!" The old man laughed excitedly.

"Swish, swish, swish..."

Not long after the old man finished speaking, the sound of rustling clothing arose, and six men in black attire suddenly appeared around the old man and the young girl, staring vigilantly at Ye Chenfeng.

Ye Chenfeng’s overall performance made them feel threatened; if Ye Chenfeng harbored any ill intentions toward the old man and the girl, they could hardly be excused.

"No need to be like this, the young friend has no ill will towards us!" the old man remarked.

Only then did the six men ease slightly, retracting their cold demeanor, but still looking cautiously at Ye Chenfeng.

"Young friend, do you have any other matters?" the old man suddenly asked.

Ye Chenfeng smiled and said, "Old gentleman, I’m just here to unwind because I have nothing better to do."

"Well then, would the young friend be willing to join us for a hunt?" the old man inquired.

Ye Chenfeng nodded, "Alright, I haven’t settled on where to have dinner yet tonight."

"..."

The girl Yanran rolled her eyes at Ye Chenfeng, thinking he was just boasting.

The other six guards were unimpressed by Ye Chenfeng’s high and mighty attitude. Did this kid not know who he was facing? Talking big without fear of biting his tongue.

However, the old man was excitedly walking shoulder to shoulder with Ye Chenfeng, chatting with him, though it was mostly the old man asking Ye Chenfeng questions.

"I am Qin Changtian, and this is my granddaughter Qin Yanran!" the old man Qin Changtian introduced himself.

The girl Qin Yanran behind him pouted, looking rather displeased as she heard her introduction to Ye Chenfeng.

"Leaf!" Ye Chenfeng did not reveal his real name, he just picked a name on the spot, seeing fallen leaves on the ground.

Qin Yanran gave Ye Chenfeng a glare and mumbled, "Leaf? What a strange name!"

The group ventured into the depths of the forest, where the trees were denser than midway up the mountain.

"Wait!"

The girl Qin Yanran gestured for everyone to stop.

Then, Qin Yanran squatted down, inspecting the ground meticulously, even turning over the thick fallen leaves.

Ye Chenfeng watched her actions with interest, a smile curling up at the corner of his mouth.

Seeing Ye Chenfeng smiling, Qin Yanran snapped, "What do you know? I’ve been here many times, I know the droppings and footprints of animals on each path by heart. Right now, I’m judging what size animals passed here by the fallen leaves. When large animals pass, they cause more leaves to fall. Anyway, why am I explaining this to you? You wouldn’t understand."

"You’re impressive, should I applaud you?" Ye Chenfeng chuckled.

"Humph!"

Qin Yanran snorted coldly and continued her investigation.

Ye Chenfeng laughed; this young girl indeed had some skills, mastering quite a few hunting techniques. Judging by her familiarity with the area, she undoubtedly has some field experience.

"Qin, having a young girl like this stay at home putting on makeup and shopping seems more normal. Yet she goes hunting, quite a shocker to my worldview!" Ye Chenfeng remarked to Qin Changtian.

Hearing Ye Chenfeng’s commentary on herself, Qin Yanran couldn’t help but glare at him.

Qin Changtian smiled, "The little girl likes hunting. Besides, I want her to understand the law of the jungle; only by being strong can one adapt to the world’s rules!"

Ye Chenfeng nodded thoughtfully. His previous memories were shallow, lacking any concept of family powers, so regarding the distribution of family power in the Capital City, Ye Chenfeng only knew about the Ye Family and the Ji Family.

Though unfamiliar with the Qin Family, based on Qin Changtian’s demeanor and his guards, Ye Chenfeng deduced that the Qin Family was a noble family.

Being born into a noble family is not as carefree as outsiders imagine; competition in the upper circles is even fiercer. If one is not strong, elimination is imminent!

Thus, Ye Chenfeng expressed his agreement with Qin Changtian’s approach, even though Qin Yanran was only a teenage girl.

This is the survival rule of noble families!

"Let’s go!"

After observing for a while, Qin Yanran finally rose, clutching the handle of the knife at her waist as she cautiously led the way.

Qin Yanran was indeed experienced, navigating the brambles and obstacles on the road ahead with ease.

"Young friend Ye, let’s follow!"

Qin Changtian, Ye Chenfeng, and others followed behind Qin Yanran, and Ye Chenfeng knew it wasn’t because Qin Changtian wasn’t afraid of danger, but because of the six guards with him.

In winter, identifying footprints isn’t difficult due to the snow; fresh footprints always have distinct edges and small jagged borders along the snowy ground, with little snow clumps along both sides of the footprint.

The footprints of birds and small animals form small concave patterns in the cold, fresh and scattered, sometimes resembling a two-fingered glove; whereas old prints form ice flowers at low temperatures.

So, Ye Chenfeng deduced that Qin Yanran was determining the animals’ locations based on the footprints.

"Yanran, what do you think this time?" Qin Changtian asked.

Qin Yanran whispered, "Grandfather, I estimate it’s a big one this time."

"Be careful!" Qin Changtian advised.

"Shh!"

After walking for a while, Qin Yanran suddenly made a silencing gesture, halting everyone.

Up ahead was an open meadow, long since wilted but with visible traces left behind.

In an instant, an image of an animal flashed through Ye Chenfeng’s mind. Qin Yanran was likely correct; it was indeed a big one!

"Grandfather, you all wait here!" Qin Yanran drew out the Kazhuo Knife from her waist, and it immediately emitted a light as brilliant as the stars. Those with sharp eyes could probably see the word "Kazhuo" engraved on it.
