Chapter 240 Breath
Qizhuan kept pushing its little head inward.
He hasn't even seen a Cracked Claw Leopard yet.
There were so many people; almost everyone from the family came.
Qi Si tried to stop him, but her father said she couldn't go out.
Two small figures weaved through the crowd, finally squeezing through a gap to reach the very front.
The leopard cub was crouching, its fur bristling, and its lightning-infused claws were bound by tough snakeskin, making it extremely agitated, its eyes bloodshot.
Qi Zhuan was stunned.
This is the split-claw leopard.
It's tiny, and much cuter than the red-eyed rabbit.
He couldn't help but take a step forward.
Qi Si tried to pull him but couldn't. Just then, the Cracked Claw Leopard suddenly tore open the snakeskin binding his claws with its teeth and slapped open the cage with one claw.
not good!
Ying Hua instinctively protected Mu Yunyun.
Qi Yue stood up instantly.
"Qizhuan! Watch out!"
The little guy was standing right in front of the Clawed Leopard, and the next second, the claw was about to slap him on the head.
Without a second thought, Mu Yunyun leaped forward.
"Female concubine!"
"Yunyun!"
The people around were startled.
The Cracked Claw Leopard's attack range is wide enough to chop a person to death. Is it crazy to pounce on it like that?
When Qi Zhuan saw the beast rushing towards him in a frenzy, he was so frightened that he fell to the ground.
"Qi Zhuan." Qi Si's face turned deathly pale.
At the critical moment, Qi Zhuan felt himself being protected by an embrace.
The bear's eyes lit up – a perfect opportunity!
However, to their surprise, the leopard cub, which had just been frantically agitated, suddenly let out a howl and lay prostrate on the ground after Mu Yunyun approached. It even obediently tucked its paws into its fur, its voice whimpering pitifully, trembling.
The air suddenly became quiet.
The bear clan members were filled with disbelief.
They were prepared to drive the beast mad and then kill the female in the chaos, but unexpectedly, the beast seemed to be surprised by something and curled up its tail, not daring to move.
what's the situation!
"Brother, are you alright?"
Qi Si rushed over in a panic, her little face pale with fright.
Qi Zhuan shook his head and walked out of Mu Yunyun's arms. If it weren't for this wicked female, he would have been pounced on by the big beast.
correct.
Big beast.
He glanced at the trembling leopard cub on the ground, clutching tightly to Mu Yunyun's sleeve, his little head looking completely bewildered.
So do everyone else.
That's a fifth-tier high-level beast; even in its juvenile stage, it's exceptionally ferocious.
How could you be so pathetic now?
The Clawed Leopard couldn't help but be timid.
Mountain beasts have unique territorial markings.
That is—breath.
Mu Yunyun is the companion of the Azure Phoenix, a divine bird.
His scent had long been lingering on them, and the sheer pressure from his presence made these unintelligent little mountain beasts tremble with fear whenever they got close.
joke.
That's a nine-striped beast.
The law of the jungle applies here. This leopard cub is still young, and a newborn calf is not afraid of a tiger. It can only instinctively feel fear. If it were to live a few more years, it would probably be scared out of its wits.
Mu Yunyun never expected that this little beast would be so cowardly.
She clearly didn't make a move.
"Ouch——"
Seeing Mu Yunyun staring at it, the young leopard dared not meet her gaze, but cautiously exposed its soft belly, a sign of submission between beasts.
so cute.
Mu Yunyun was instantly delighted, and she reached out her hand...
"Lady, be careful."
It's Ying Hua!
Mu Yunyun didn't hear this. She reached out and stroked the leopard cub's fluffy belly. The cub sensed her kindness and purred contentedly. It even licked Mu Yunyun's fingertips with its little tongue to show its affection.
Qi Zhuan was also incredibly curious. He was bold and had long forgotten how the beast had gone mad earlier. He squatted down and, imitating Mu Yunyun, went forward to touch it as well.
Unexpectedly, the leopard cub wouldn't let him touch it at all; it burrowed into Mu Yunyun's arms and bared its teeth at him.
"Don't bare your teeth." Mu Yunyun patted its head.
The little beast let out a howl and immediately became obedient.
Mu Yunyun didn't dare let Qi Zhuan touch her, afraid of being bitten, so she could only hold the little beast in her arms and walk back to the table.
This time, however, there were two little tails following behind.
"Bad female, bad female, let me touch you."
"No, what if it bites?"
"If you don't let me touch you, I'll tell my father and he'll ignore you."
The little guy followed behind him menacingly, issuing a warning.
Mu Yunyun pretended not to hear.
This scene, when witnessed by Ying Hua, caused him to unconsciously frown.
This must be Qi Yue's youngest son.
As the mother of his cub, this cub who was nominally hers was so disrespectful to her, not only not calling her "mother" but also speaking to her in such an arrogant tone.
It's likely that she suffered more than just a little bit of injustice in Qishan.
Otherwise, why would someone with her personality want to return to Yuanzhou?
Thinking of this, he suddenly asked a question.
"Is this the youngest child of the concubine?"
"She's not my mother. Let me touch her, or I'll hit you!" Qi Zhuan stood on tiptoe, trying to reach into her arms to touch her.
"Qizhuan, come here!"
Qi Yue sternly rebuked him and pulled him directly in front of her.
"How dare you speak to your mother like that? Didn't I tell you to stay quietly in the yard?"
Mu Yunyun couldn't stand him yelling at the cubs.
"Alright, why are you yelling at him? He's so young, what's wrong with him being a little naughty?"
She handed the leopard cub over and waved to Qi Zhuan.
"Come here, Zhuan'er, come to your mother's side."
"Hmph! I don't care!"
Qi Yue's anger intensified.
He knew that the two cubs disliked her, especially Si'er, who loathed and disliked her.
However, since both cubs' preferences were influenced by him, he was also partly to blame for daring to treat her this way.
"Apologize to your mother."
He straightened the little guy's body and spoke in a serious tone.
"Why should I apologize? I won't apologize to this wicked female!"
"Sister, sister, save me!"
Qi Si remained still.
She matured early and knew that disrespecting elders was a big mistake. It would have been fine in the past, but this female was not that bad to her, and she didn't want to embarrass her in this situation.
"Apologize or not!" Qi Yue's voice was deep as she repeated it again.
The little guy pouted, and the next instant, he burst into tears.
Mu Yunyun felt extremely distressed and put the little leopard on the ground before going to pick up the cub.
"And you, why are you yelling at him like that in front of outsiders?"
Qi Zhuan wouldn't let her hug him; he didn't want her to hug him.
Qi Yue pulled him over and slapped his little bottom a few times.
The little guy has his pride too; being hit in public made his face even redder than his bottom.
He burst into tears.
"Father is bad, I hate father the most."
"She's not my mother, I don't want her as my mother!"
Qi Yue's chest heaved with anger. Seeing how stubborn he was, she made a move to hit him again.
Mu Yunyun quickly pulled the two apart.
"Alright, alright, why are you so angry? We'll teach you slowly, there are outsiders here."
"If you don't set rules in front of others, what will become of you in the future?"
