122: The babies kept asking for hugs.
The Cubs got into a scuffle.
In this low-level brawl, Little Fu's water tornado played a huge role.
Huo Jun and the others' fierce and unyielding momentum finally intimidated the Cubs from Eagle Dream's Family.
After several Eagle Beastman shouted some harsh words, they flapped their wings and flew away.
Little Fu hurriedly fluttered over, and Huo Jun also rushed to check on his younger brothers.
“Hu Qi, She Yang, are you guys okay?”
Hu Qi had some bruises on his face, but he didn't care. He asked urgently, “I'm fine. Big Brother, She Yang, what about you? Does it hurt?”
She Yang also had injuries on his body, but he didn't care about the pain: “Brother Huo Jun, Brother Hu Qi, I'm fine. Are you guys okay?”
The three brothers were clearly all bruised and battered, yet none of them were angry or frustrated.
After a few seconds, the brothers suddenly burst into laughter.
“I'm so happy. We won,” Huo Jun said.
Hu Qi also laughed, “Yeah, we won! They even had a Beast Warrior, and they still couldn't beat us.”
She Yang also smiled with his eyes curved.
Little Fu called out in a milky voice, “Fu-Fu, Fu-Fu.”
Hu Qi picked up Little Fu.
The brothers laughed very happily. Their bond seemed to have grown closer in an instant, completely losing the sense of strangeness they had when they first met.
A warm current flowed through Huo Jun's heart.
Is this what it feels like to have brothers?
Is this what it feels like to have a Family?
Is this the feeling of standing together, not fearing outsiders or other families?
The four little ones completely forgot about their fathers' Male Competition. The world of Cubs was simple and clean, and they began playing together... When Nan Zhisui returned with a weary body, the virtuous White Fox had already settled everything at home.
She drank water in large gulps, finally recovering some of her strength.
She glanced at the cubs and whispered to White Fox, “Did the four cubs get into a fight today?”
White Fox said softly, “Yes, they had a fight with the Eagle cubs.”
Nan Zhisui asked curiously, “Did they win?”
White Fox nodded, “They won. They won the argument, and they won the fight.”
“Impressive!” Nan Zhisui praised in a low voice.
When the four little ones were fighting today, the two Father Beasts, White Fox and Lan Xing, were watching nearby, but neither intervened.
In the Beast World, the law of the jungle prevailed; excessive protection did no good for the cubs.
They had to strive, snatch, and fight from a young age.
Fighting together not only cultivated their combat awareness but also made them more united.
Lan Xing brought up the seafood.
Part of it was cooked according to Nan Zhisui's habits, while some was still raw.
The Family of nine sat around the large stone table and began to enjoy the feast.
Just as Lan Xing was about to start eating, Chi Xiao picked up a large basin of seafood in front of him and gave it to Nan Zhisui. Forgetting to soften his voice, he said with full vigor, “female master, you're tired from today's cultivation, eat up!”
Lan Xing's hand froze in mid-air, feeling a bit awkward.
White Fox took two oysters from the basin Chi Xiao brought and, along with the cooked seafood he had prepared, gave them to Nan Zhisui.
He smiled gently, “female master, eat these.”
Xuan Jin watched this scene, let out a cold snort, and then looked at his own bruised and swollen cub, She Yang.
He didn't know what was wrong with this kid today, actually playing with a Vulture Beastmen cub? They seemed to have a very good relationship?
A snake and a vulture playing together?
It was simply crazy.
After finishing the meal happily, Nan Zhisui's muscles were sore. White Fox massaged her muscles beside her.
The massage made Nan Zhisui feel even more sore, and she cried out in pain.
Chi Xiao scratched his head. He felt that the Little Female Master seemed to be enjoying the pain. He wanted to feel that way too!
Just then, the four cubs entered the Cave, with Huo Jun leading and the three younger brothers following behind.
The four little ones knelt together before Nan Zhisui.
Nan Zhisui sat up abruptly. “What's wrong?”
Huo Jun explained, “Mother, the four of us fought today. I was the leader; it has nothing to do with my younger brothers and sister. Please punish me, Mother.”
Hu Qi hurriedly said, “No, Mother, we did fight today. But it has nothing to do with Big Brother, I was the one who started it. Big Brother only wanted to help me!”
She Yang busily hissed and hissed, but Nan Zhisui couldn't understand him.
Little Fu also opened her big mouth, “Fu-Fu, Fu-Fu!”
Nan Zhisui asked, “Did you win?”
Huo Jun answered, “We won.”
“If I punish you now, will you regret the fight?” Nan Zhisui asked again.
The four little ones said in unison, “No regrets!”
Nan Zhisui, who had been maintaining a serious face, couldn't help but chuckle twice.
Those two chuckles softened the originally serious atmosphere.
They were all such good cubs. Truly worthy of being the cubs she bore.
“So, do you have any reflections?” Nan Zhisui asked.
Huo Jun thought for a moment and said, “...When I was kicking the Eagle cub, my reaction was a bit slow, which allowed him to hit my arm.”
Hu Qi also said, “My strength is too low. Hitting them didn't hurt much; I had to land several punches in a row to make them feel it.”
She Yanger hissed dejectedly.
Fu-Fu tilted her head.
Nan Zhisui stood up and told the Cubs to get up.
“Stop kneeling, all of you come here. Let Mother see your injuries.”
The Cubs sat in a row, and Nan Zhisui began treating them, starting with the one who looked most seriously injured.
She took off Huo Jun's beast skin skirt. After the Little Cub took off his clothes, his face turned bright red, and he felt a bit at a loss.
Nan Zhisui used a beast skin dipped in warm water to carefully wipe his body.
Little Huo Jun clearly felt his body still aching, yet his heart felt warm.
This feeling was truly much better than being some Young Master in the Bird Tribe.
He loved Mother so much. He finally had a mother too.
Such a wonderful mother.
Nan Zhisui took out an injury ointment from her space and applied it to Huo Jun's body, then took out bandages and wrapped all his wounds.
“It's okay, they're just bruises. They'll heal with some rest,” Nan Zhisui said.
Huo Jun said with a slightly red face, “Don't worry, Mother. We male cubs have strong bodies and heal quickly. It'll be better by tomorrow.”
So well-behaved.
Nan Zhisui tapped his little nose.
Nan Zhisui also handled Hu Qi's and She Yang's injuries one by one.
The Little Cubs wouldn't easily bully a Female, so Fu-Fu had no injuries on her body.
After Nan Zhisui cleaned the Cubs' bodies and treated their injuries, the Cubs suddenly became very clingy toward her.
Huo Jun asked somewhat shyly, “Mother, can I give you a hug?”
“Of course you can.”
“Mother, I want one too!”
“Hiss hiss hiss!”
“Fu-Fu, hug~”
Hu Qi, She Yang, and Fu-Fu also clamored for hugs.
Nan Zhisui picked up all four little ones.
“Mother, Aqi wants to sleep with you,” Hu Qi said coquettishly.
She Yang was not to be outdone: “Hiss hiss. Godmother, I want to too, I want to too.”
Huo Jun also said, “Mother, can we sleep together?”
The cubs were all so soft and cute.
Nan Zhisui's heart softened, and she agreed.
“Alright, Mother will sleep with everyone today.”
“Great!” The faces of several cubs immediately lit up.
The several Male Beastmen staying around outside the Cave—Xuan Jin, Chi Xiao, and Lan Xing—as well as White Fox inside the Cave, each let out a sigh.
Tonight, Nan Zhisui was monopolized by the Cubs.
Why is life so difficult?
White Fox walked out of Nan Zhisui's Cave, looked at the other beastmen outside, and after their eyes met for a moment, he returned to his own Cave.
Xuan Jin gave a cold snort and also returned to his own Cave.
Seeing this, Chi Xiao strode back to his own Cave.
Lan Xing left Fu-Fu with Nan Zhisui and jumped back into the sea himself.
