The next day, early in the morning, Song Xiaodong left the city with the Lin Family people. However, they didn't leave together but rather in several groups, just like they usually would when hunting. In total, there were more than twenty people, all skilled experts, led by Lin Qing. From this, it was evident that Lin Qing held quite a high position in the Lin Family.

After over two hours of travel, they finally arrived in front of a mountain wall, which was covered with vines.

Song Xiaodong's perception ability spread out, and he immediately discovered that among those vines, there was actually a cave entrance. Moreover, near that cave entrance, there were also two people who were almost holding their breath, not daring to make a sound.

It seems this was a wild village, where these people were hiding to live. Now, they were about to become the prey of the Lin Family.

Just as the Lin Family was about to enter the cave, a group of people suddenly rushed over from behind. Lin Qing and the others quickly turned their heads and found that it was Zhou Canghai leading a group, causing their expressions to change.

Zhou Canghai, with a stern face, took a step forward and said, "Hey, Lin Qing, what are you doing?"

Lin Qing replied with a stern expression, "What we're doing doesn't need to concern your Zhou Family."

Zhou Canghai said, "Hmph, Lin Qing, our Zhou Family wants to hunt here as well, so please leave."

Lin Qing said in a deep voice, "This place is no man's land; we got here first, so we should hunt here first."

"You also want to hunt here?" Zhou Canghai's lip curled as he said, "I say, Lin Qing, your Lin Family's hunting ground is rich in prey. Is there any need for you to bring people to this place with little game to hunt?"

Lin Qing snorted and said, "That's none of your business. Besides, the game there is always ours, and the more we hunt here, the more we gain."

Zhou Canghai chuckled and said, "That's a pretty good idea you got there. It reminded me that our Zhou Family will just follow your lead and hunt together, and we'll gain a little more that way."

Lin Qing's face darkened. Obviously, Zhou Canghai noticed that the Lin Family had discovered something, so he secretly followed them and shamelessly refused to leave.

They considered leaving, not bothering with the wild village, but were worried that Zhou Canghai would stay and then discover the wild village, which would mean the Lin Family would gain nothing.

Zhou Canghai chuckled at this moment and said, "I say, Lin Qing, let's not beat around the bush. How about we split the benefits equally? Otherwise, our Zhou Family will search directly, and if we find anything, we won't share it with your Lin Family."

Lin Qing frowned, weighing the situation. Both sides had about the same number of people, so it was hard to say who would come out on top. Moreover, the Zhou Family had always been more influential than the Lin Family, so challenging them was not a wise choice.

Finally, Lin Qing said in a deep voice, "Zhou Canghai, you persistent ghost, you're extremely annoying."

Zhou Canghai laughed heartily and said, "Lin Qing, don't say that. I'm just trying to gain some benefits, aren't we good friends?"

Lin Qing glared fiercely at Zhou Canghai and said, "I'll be honest with you, I discovered a wild village and I'm here to raid it today."

Zhou Canghai's eyes lit up and he said, "So that's how it is. Well then, let's raid it together and split the benefits fifty-fifty."

Lin Qing immediately widened his eyes and said, "Absolutely not. We found this wild village; we don't need your Zhou Family's help. At most, I'll give you a twenty percent share."

"No way, fifty-fifty is the only fair way."

"Fair my ass! Our Lin Family found this wild village by spending a lot of manpower and resources, and you Zhou Family want to take half for nothing. That's simply impossible."

"Alright then, you take sixty and we take forty."

"Don't even think about it; you'll only get twenty percent."

"How about seventy-thirty? If you still don't agree, then we will rely on our abilities and whoever grabs more gets more."

The two sides were at a stalemate for a while but eventually agreed on a seventy-thirty split, with Lin Qing securing seventy percent and the Zhou Family getting thirty percent.

Even though the Lin Family got more, it should have been entirely theirs, so Lin Qing was still frustrated. Zhou Canghai, although getting less, was quite satisfied as it was essentially free for him.

After the two families came to an agreement, the Lin Family people immediately pulled aside the vines, revealing a cave entrance.

Two experts immediately carried rattan shields and cautiously walked inside, followed by the rest of the group.

"Oh!" Everyone smoothly entered the cave, which had a considerable area, about the size of a football field. It was filled with various everyday items, indicating that quite a few people lived there.

But once inside, they couldn't spot anyone; even the two people who had been guarding the entrance were nowhere to be seen.

"Search, they must be hiding." Lin Qing waved his hand, and the Lin Family's family guards immediately split into groups and spread out.

"Quickly, find everyone for me. There must be a lot of people here." The Zhou Family was not to be outdone, and they started searching in the same way.

Song Xiaodong followed closely behind Lin Qing, frowning because he sensed a sense of danger.

This dangerous feeling puzzled Song Xiaodong. Could there be some top-level expert hiding here? But an expert shouldn't make him feel this way.

"Over here, there's a hidden cave, blocked by stones at the entrance; they must be inside." A family guard shouted excitedly.
