Yun Xi Yue spoke in a soft, coquettish voice, and Yang Jun was slightly taken aback.

As for being first, or the glory and such, he really has no interest in that.

But, the matter of the autumn hunt gave him a hint of an idea.

In the original book, Zhou Tian actually stole the limelight during the autumn hunt.

After all, he is the protagonist of the original book, bearing the protagonist's halo; he slaughtered in all directions, mighty beyond compare.

Most importantly, he captured a young ferocious beast.

After this ferocious beast grew up, it aided Zhou Tian, letting him gain countless successes in his campaigns, and also win the favor of many beauties.

Now Zhou Tian bears a deep hatred for Yang Jun; under this hatred, he wishes he could kill Yang Jun.

Since that's the case, I too must make preparations.

The stronger Zhou Tian becomes, the more danger I am in; conversely, the stronger I become, the weaker Zhou Tian will become.

Having such a thought, Yang Jun also became interested in this autumn hunt.

No matter what, we must not let this young ferocious beast fall into Zhou Tian's hands.

"Um, wife, help me out."

Yang Jun leaned in, speaking softly.

Yun Xi Yue snorted, about to raise her head, when Yang Jun pressed his lips to hers.

The kiss was too heavy, her breathing seemed somewhat insufficient.

Yun Xi Yue glared at Yang Jun resentfully.

"Speak, what is it?"

"The map of the autumn hunt hunting grounds, you should be able to easily get it, right?"

"Huh?"

With Yang Jun's words, Yun Xi Yue immediately understood: this guy wants to cheat!

"Fine then, want it? I'll see your performance before deciding whether to give it or not."

"Rest assured, husband, your will is steadfast; I'll make sure you're satisfied!"

Yang Jun took a deep breath, his face resolute.

……

When Yang Jun took out the box given by Hei Ming, he discovered that inside it was divided into sections, exactly containing three portions of rouge and powder and such.

Seeing these things, he was again slightly taken aback.

Is this a coincidence, or did Hei Ming intend it?
