112: Chapter 112 A Deadly Question

If their family hadn't lived in the Black Dog Tribe, after what just happened, Bai Wanwan might have gloated.

But now, the trouble stirred up by that Cub might implicate them too.

"Are the Eagle Beasts that formidable? Even the two of you couldn't defeat them?"

Xin Feng saw her beautiful face furrowed and didn't want her to be anxious due to fear.

"That won't happen, don't worry. With Zhu Xiu and me here, you and the Cubs will be fine."

Eagle Beasts fly in the sky. If they wanted to attack the Black Dog Tribe, with one careless move, if the Cub was carried away into the sky by an Eagle Beast, even with their strong Talents, they wouldn't be able to attack the enemy.

However, it was enough that he and Zhu Xiu knew this; there was no need to say it out loud and scare her.

Bai Wanwan was indeed worried at first, but she was quickly placated by Xin Feng.

The worry on her face turned into a smile. "I'm hungry, let's go back and have a big meal."

After returning home, since they were making Hot Pot, only Bai Wanwan could handle it.

Xin Feng went to Shi Hua's home to pick up the Cubs, and Zhu Xiu helped wash the vegetables.

"Don't you want me to help you chop?"

"No need, just watch the Cubs."

The Wolf Cub was placed in a Basket and had already jumped out several times, only to be stuffed back in by Zhu Xiu each time.

Just as Bai Wanwan finished speaking, it once again sprang out of the Basket and bolted towards the outside.

Zhu Xiu calmly followed behind it.

The Wolf Cub didn't want to be caught, so it sprinted with all four paws, but it realized that no matter how fast it ran, that terrifying Beastman was keeping pace right behind it.

Zhu Xiu walked slowly behind it for a long distance before bending down and scooping it up in one grab.

He glanced coldly at it. "Still running around? Next time an Eagle Beast snatches you away, I definitely won't let your Mother come looking for you. After all, she will give birth to several litters of Snake Cubs for me in the future; she won't be short of Cubs."

The Cub struggling in his palm immediately went still, a hint of understanding mixed with confusion in its clear eyes.

Zhu Xiu's lips curved into a cold smile. "If you understood, then be good. Cause less trouble for your Mother, or I won't save you when the Eagle Beasts take you away."

"Waaah."

The Wolf Cub opened its mouth and let out a sound resembling crying.

Just then, Xin Feng returned from Shi Hua's place, having picked up his remaining Cubs.

From afar, he heard his little Wolf Cub crying out.

He walked quickly over, took the Cub from Zhu Xiu's hand, and apologized, "Did he cause trouble for you again?"

Zhu Xiu glanced at the Wolf Cub again. Seeing that it had stopped crying and was only staring at him.

"He didn't cause trouble. If you are too busy to look after him, you can let me watch the little Wolf Cub."

The little Wolf Cub, upon hearing this, immediately turned around and clung tightly to its Father Beast's clothes with its paws, looking up at its Father Beast with a wronged expression.

Xin Feng was startled. The Wolf Cub in his arms was the eldest, the strongest of the Cubs; it was brave and mischievous, unafraid of being scolded or spanked.

As its Father Beast, this was the first time he had seen his Wolf Cub display such a wronged, even slightly fearful, expression.

Connecting this to Zhu Xiu's words, Xin Feng's mind turned, and he roughly understood, a faint smile playing on his face.

"I'll take care of him myself for now. If he's too mischievous and I can't manage him, I'll hand him over to you."

The Wolf Cub's beautiful light-blue eyes widened roundly. It didn't want this! This Beastman didn't like it and would definitely hand it over to the Eagle Beasts.

"Father Beast, Father Beast, I'll be good, don't let him take me."

The Wolf Cub opened its mouth, but the sounds coming out were just "Waaah, Waaah."

Xin Feng suppressed a smile, stroked its head, and looked up at Zhu Xiu. "There is something I want to discuss with you."

Zhu Xiu turned his head, a faint red light flickering. "Go ahead."

"I know that deep down, you have never fully accepted me staying by Wan Wan's side."

Zhu Xiu narrowed his eyes, not expecting this seemingly gentle and good-tempered Male to be able to see what he was thinking.

He did not deny it. "So, what do you want to say?"

"Wan Wan is a Sacred Female. You cannot stop powerful Males from approaching her, especially since your current condition is still very unstable."

Zhu Xiu narrowed his eyes. He hadn't anticipated that the energy stones couldn't completely suppress the backlash power of the dark curse.

Otherwise, he could have Wan Wan all to himself.

Having Xin Feng by her side was already annoying enough, let alone the fact that more Males would appear in the future to fight for Wan Wan's attention.

Xin Feng kept staring at Zhu Xiu. Seeing that he remained silent, he continued, "Even if your body were fine, in the future, you and Wan Wan will have Cubs. Can you take care of Wan Wan and the Cubs while also going hunting?"

"Take the present situation: if you lose control again and the Eagle Beasts attack, I cannot guarantee the safety of Wan Wan and the five Cubs."

"What exactly are you trying to say?"

Zhu Xiu already vaguely sensed it, and his face showed displeasure as he released a sense of pressure.

"I hope you won't stop Wan Wan from Pairing Ceremony with the Males she likes. That way, Wan Wan and the Cubs will be much safer."

Previously, he had the same selfish thought as Zhu Xiu.

But now, all he wished for was for Wan Wan to live safely and happily.

Zhu Xiu let out a cold laugh. "Are you happy seeing Wan Wan being intimate with me?"

"I am not happy, but I will control it. Compared to that, I hope even more that Wan Wan can live safely and as she pleases."

"That is your idea. Me tolerating one Male like you by her side is already my biggest concession. You still want to persuade me to accept more Beast Husbands for her? You had better give up that thought."

After saying that, Zhu Xiu turned and walked away.

Xin Feng stood in place, his snow-white Beast Robe setting off his tall and graceful figure, like warm jade.

He held his few Cubs, watched Zhu Xiu's retreating figure, and sighed.

When Bai Wanwan opened the System Mall to buy ingredients, she almost lost control upon seeing dried sweet potatoes and chocolate.

She quickly slapped her other hand back.

"Is your family rich? Hurry up and put that hand away."

Snacks that were clearly within reach, that she could eat freely, now had to be banished by her.

She needed to save points to eliminate the dark curse for Zhu Xiu.

Swallowing her saliva, she forcibly turned her gaze away, deciding to only pick raw food.

The cheapest things in this System were seeds, followed by vegetables and fruits.

Snacks, for instance, could cost hundreds of points with just a small purchase.

Before, she might not have cared, but now she truly couldn't afford it.

Finally, she spent about ten points to buy a pile of potatoes and sweet potatoes and threw them into the bonfire.

Roasted sweet potatoes and mashed potatoes could count as snacks, after all.

After tossing the other ingredients into the pot one by one, she noticed that neither Beast Husband had returned yet.

She walked to the door and looked out. Upon seeing their figures in the distance, she smiled and went back inside to get bowls and chopsticks.

However, after circling around once, the two Males still hadn't returned.

She walked to the doorway and looked out; they were still standing in the same spot.

She stood watching from the doorway for at least a few minutes before Zhu Xiu finally turned and walked back first.

Bai Wanwan rushed to meet him. Noticing his expression wasn't good, she immediately asked tentatively, "Did you and Xin Feng have a fight?"

Zhu Xiu stopped walking and stared at her, asking, "If he and I fought, whose side would you take?"

Uh, what kind of fatal question was this?
