The Legendary Man

Chapter 1184 Dangerous Lake

At night, between the viridescent mountains by a spacious lake were a few cultivators donning pelts. They were roasting animal meat by the campfire.

Among the few men, a middle-aged man who looked like he was in his forties stood up with a piece of roasted meat.

“I'm going to take the shift by the slope at the side. You guys should get an early night after eating. By the way, remember to clear away the unfinished meat. We don't want to lure other ferocious beasts over.”

The youths at the party smiled and nodded upon hearing the middle-aged man's instructions.

“Got it, Mr. Downey. Don't worry. It isn't our first time out here. We'll definitely clear out everything properly and leave nothing behind.”

The middle-aged man gave them a smile and headed toward the slope.

When the youths saw him leave, they hurried toward the campfire to check if their food was ready.

“Stellan, why don't we catch some fish to eat? It's kind of tiring to have animal meat all the time,” the smallest and the youngest person in the group suggested as he looked at the rippling lake.

Hearing that, the three other people at the side lowered their meat and turned to look at the cultivator named Stellan.

“Well...” Stellan turned to look in the direction the middle-aged man had gone. “Mr. Downey has set up a formation and asked us to stay here overnight. If we leave on our own accord, and if something were to happen...”

When the youths around him heard the hesitation in his tone, they became disheartened.

Stellan was the eldest among them, and he was the core of the team. If he did not agree with the suggestion, the others could not protest about it.

The small-sized young man resentfully tossed his unfinished meat into the lake a dozen of meters away from them.

“Welrun, what are you doing?” Stellan bolted over to Welrun.

“Stellan!”

When the others noticed the strong fluctuation of Stellan's spiritual energy, they quickly stood between the two.
