16: Vow to be at the top of the food chain!

Inside the den at this moment, this group of little wolf cubs were still chasing Lu Chuan tirelessly.

Their eyes were full of excitement, occasionally letting out joyful wolf howls.

These little wolf cubs, who were only two months old, were not mature enough at all.

They simply did not know that they had just survived a life-or-death crisis.

If Lu Chuan had not intervened in time, many of these little wolf cubs would have died under the Golden Eagle's sharp talons.

Even adult Snow Wolves could lose their lives, let alone these defenseless cubs.

Ren Qingyao looked at Lu Chuan, who was still playing peacefully with a group of little wolf cubs, and her heart was slow to recover for a long time.

Was everything that just happened merely a coincidence created by her Brother, who was the king of the kids, playing and wrestling with the little wolf cubs?

Or did the other party do it on purpose?

If he did it on purpose, then was her not-so-smart Brother a bit too smart?!

So smart, in fact, that he did not even seem like a wolf!

It is important to know that for wild beasts, the first reaction when encountering such a predator is fear.

Ordinary wild animals simply do not have things like thought and consciousness.

All their actions are instinctive reactions based on the situation they face.

Adult Snow Wolves would deal with the crisis by driving the cubs away and simultaneously issuing warnings to the Golden Eagle in the sky.

However, this would make the overlord hanging in the sky realize that its whereabouts had been exposed, and it was very likely to launch a sudden attack.

Furthermore, cubs that were just over two months old were very difficult to control once they panicked.

With so many Snow Wolf cubs running around, it would be impossible to maintain discipline without several adult Snow Wolves present to supervise simultaneously.

In this situation, casualties were simply unavoidable.

However, Lu Chuan's action of blending in with the little wolf cubs and quietly moving them.

Even the Golden Eagle in the air would only see it as play among the little wolf cubs.

The other party would continue to wait for an opportunity to strike, thus successfully avoiding danger and minimizing casualties.

In Ren Qingyao's opinion, being able to make these judgments and actions was absolutely not something ordinary beasts could do.

At the very least, it proved that his intelligence was far above that of ordinary animals.

"Aowu!"

Lu Chuan gave a big slap, knocking a little wolf cub to the ground, feeling extremely proud, and let out a joyful wolf howl.

A crisis was easily resolved by himself, and Lu Chuan felt proud of himself.

But at this moment, a wolf howl, full of fear and sorrow, came from the Mountain Valley outside the cave.

Lu Chuan's heart sank, and he inwardly cried out, "Not good."

He then quickly rushed out of the cave. When he looked outside the cave.

He found that the Golden Eagle's talons were gripping a little wolf cub that was still struggling, and it had already flown into the high sky.

At this moment, the little wolf cub had not yet stopped breathing and was still letting out helpless and fearful wails.

Hearing that sound, Lu Chuan's heart tightened.

"Damn it, how is there still a straggler!"

Lu Chuan's pupils contracted uncontrollably. He did not expect there to be a foolish one who did not follow him into the den.

He thought back carefully and realized that it was mostly when he was pushing Xiao Dai into the den.

This little wolf had fallen behind. At that time, he had already rushed into the cave and did not turn back in time to notice.

At this moment, the little wolf cubs who were still playing and wrestling inside the cave had no idea what happened.

They also did not know that one of their companions had become the Golden Eagle's food.

Seeing Lu Chuan run outside the cave, this group of little guys also followed him out, and one by one, they pounced on and bit Lu Chuan.

At this moment, Lu Chuan's heart was extremely vexed, and his eyes were very gloomy.

Right now, he had no mind to play with these little wolf cubs.

This was the first time since he came to this world that he saw a life beside him disappear.

Hunting for food was one thing, but the death of a little wolf cub who had been by his side day and night was another.

Looking at the little wolf cubs who were rushing forward one after another, Lu Chuan could not help but let out a roar.

Immediately afterward, he severely beat all the little wolf cubs that rushed out.

After all, the Golden Eagle was still in the air, and no one knew if it would turn back.

Moreover, the enraged Lu Chuan also needed to vent some anger from his heart.

These thick-skinned little wolf cubs, who did not know pain, were used as sandbags by Lu Chuan and were all beaten back into the cave.

Ren Qingyao, who saw this scene not far away, had a very complicated look in her eyes for a moment.

Looking at her Brother, whose expression seemed a little gloomy, she did not know what to say for a moment.

Was her Brother... angry?

Was he angry at himself for not taking good care of these little wolves?

Angry that he could only watch as the Golden Eagle snatched the little wolf cub away?

Ren Qingyao was puzzled. She did not expect that this little Snow Wolf, just two months old, would also have such complex emotions.

It is important to know that the little wolf cubs born at the same time as them were all very simple-minded at the moment and did not have these thoughts at all.

After knocking over a few little wolf cubs and venting his anger, Lu Chuan also calmed down at this moment.

Strength!

Strength was the most important thing!

Today's incident, in the final analysis, was because his strength was too weak!

If he were a powerful top predator today, when the Golden Eagle swooped down, he could even directly hunt and kill it.

Instead of only being able to take this group of cubs and flee into the cave in a panic and disarray, not even daring to show his head.

Even hearing the little wolf cub's mournful wail, he did not dare to go out at all...

Lu Chuan let out a breath of stale air. Useless furious rage was of no use. The key was to make himself stronger as quickly as possible.

The peaceful life in the Mountain Valley during this period had made him almost forget the cruelty of the animal kingdom.

The Law of the jungle was the unchanging rule of this world, and no creature could escape it.

It was just that they, who had just been born, were protected too well by the adult Snow Wolves and had not yet seen the bloodiness of this world.

Lu Chuan should have long realized that the prey the Snow Wolf King brought back each time was the best warning to their group of little Snow Wolves.

In this world, if you are not strong enough, no one will help you uphold justice; you will only become food in the mouths of others.

The cold wind blew through Lu Chuan's fur, but his body stood still in place.

Lu Chuan looked at the constantly howling wind and snow outside the Mountain Valley, and a hint of determination flashed in his ice-blue pupils.

He secretly swore in his heart that no matter what, he would never become the prey of other wild beasts!

Reborn into this life, he must stand at the top of the food chain in this world and must never let others dictate his life!

Ren Qingyao in the cave was also filled with emotion at this moment.

In this world, no one will always be a cub living in swaddling clothes.

To survive in this cruel natural world, one must grow up as quickly as possible.
