nWhen the sky turned dark.

n

n

nThe exhausted and hungry pride finally reached their destination at the borders of the territory.

n

n

n

n

nAfter a round of investigation, the male and female lions chose a patch of bushes at the edge of the territory to be their new home.

n

n

nIn the bushes, there were two thick and tall Baobab trees. The thick and fat bottom of the tree trunk was like a huge water tank and looked rather comical.

n

n

nOf course, it was also exceptionally striking.

n

n

nFrom today onwards, these two Baobab trees would become a special symbol of the pride’s new home.

n

n

n

n

nChu Xiaoye liked it here.

n

n

nIt was not just the trees, bushes, and grass here.

n

n

nEven the air seemed to be cooler.

n

n

nUnder the slope not far away, there was a winding river.

n

n

n

n

nAlthough the river was not wide and the water was muddy, many animals would gather here every evening.

n

n

nThere were carnivores like them, many strange herbivores, some beautiful birds, and even some small insects.

n

n

nThis was the real animal world.

n

n

nThe female lions did not stay long in the new home, nor did they have the time to rest. They had to find some food to satiate their hunger before the sun completely set.

n

n

nAt the foot of the hill not far away, the sounds of all sorts of animals neighing, playing, and begging for a mate could be heard. It was loud and noisy.

n

n

nThe five female lions looked at each other and walked over.

n

n

n

n

nStanding on the hill and looking down, the female lions’ eyes lit up. Their mouths were overflowing with saliva and their stomachs were rumbling.

n

n

nThere was so much delicious food!

n

n

nHowever, there were too many carnivores gathered at the drinking ground. They could not hunt there.

n

n

nOtherwise, the food that they hunted painstakingly would also be snatched away by other carnivores.

n

n

nThey had to choose a target, find the direction that the target would leave in after drinking the water, and then lay an ambush on the path that the other party had to pass!

n

n

nThe female lions started to move.

n

n

nThe cold father lion did not rest either.

n

n

nHe passed through the bushes and peed at the borders of the territory again. He even rubbed his body on the grass and trees, leaving behind his fur and smell to warn his neighbors and the invaders.

n

n

n

n

nHe used urine and smell to split the bushes into two, enjoying the shade with the lions next door.

n

n

nUnder normal circumstances, prides that were neighbouring each other would not cross each other’s borders to avoid unnecessary casualties.

n

n

nUnless the opposing lion was extremely strong and wanted to snatch their territory.

n

n

nHowever.

n

n

nThe cold father understood the lion next door.

n

n

nThat lion was a year younger than him and was no match for him.

n

n

nHowever, the other party was definitely not to be trifled with.

n

n

nTherefore, it was better to understand each other and follow the rules.

n

n

nNo one wanted to risk their lives and die while letting the other wandering lions and carnivores take advantage of them.

n

n

nThe female lions were ambushing the enemy.

n

n

nThe lion was marking the borders of the territory.

n

n

nAs for Chu Xiaoye, he brought Little Curly Tail and Mei Mei up a Baobab tree and stood on the thickest branch at the top.

n

n

nThe bottom of this Baobab tree’s trunk was thick and round. The branches on it were also very wide. Compared to the big tree before, it was very easy to climb.

n

n

n

n

nMei Mei and Little Curly Tail stood on it as if they were walking on flat ground. They no longer had any fear.

n

n

nLars and Gigi lay sleeping in the bushes below.

n

n

nThe journey and fright made them so sleepy that they could not open their eyes.

n

n

nThey only wanted to eat when they woke up. They were not interested in climbing trees.

n

n

nChu Xiaoye stood on a branch and could vaguely see the river at the foot of the hill and the few animals gathered by the river to drink water.

n

n

nAfter the water buffaloes drank their fill, they climbed up the hill and walked towards the distant grassland.

n

n

nChu Xiaoye knew that the prey the female lions were waiting for was not this herd of water buffaloes.

n

n

nWithout the lion’s help, the female lions would have a hard time catching the water buffaloes in the herd. If they were not careful, there would be casualties.

n

n

nUnless there were old, weak, sick, and disabled bulls.

n

n

nEven if it was a lone water buffalo, the female lions did not dare to take the risk given their current hungry and tired states.

n

n

nAnother herd of gnus drank the water and left.

n

n

nAnd the direction they left in was the direction the five female lions left in.

n

n

nThe five female lions were lying in wait in the bushes!

n

n

nThis was probably the prey they were waiting for!

n

n

nChu Xiaoye stood on high ground and looked at the place where the female lions were hiding. Just as he was about to see how they hunted, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a black spot from the corner of his eye.

n

n

nIt was a hyena!

n

n

nAfter following the pride and waiting for the lionesses to catch their prey, they immediately called for their companions to snatch the prey!

n

n

nChu Xiaoye’s anger immediately surged up, and his eyes were filled with cold killing intent!

n

n

nThe sneak attack and snatching of prey midway previously had already filled him with hatred for this group of hyenas!

n

n

nNow, his hatred was even greater!

n

n

nNo wonder the lions and hyenas had been enemies for generations!

n

n

nThe moment he saw the hyena, the hatred that had seeped into Chu Xiaoye’s bones and blood immediately surged up!

n

n

nThe lion walked far away, still marking the border.

n

n

nThe female lions were hiding and all their attention was in front.

n

n

nThe shameless hyena was hiding behind them, watching their movements closely with its cunning eyes.

n

n

nAs long as they caught prey, it would run around and shout for its companions to snatch the prey!

n

n

nChu Xiaoye did not hesitate and immediately climbed down the tree.

n

n

nLittle Curly Tail and Mei Mei were stunned for a moment before they immediately followed him.

n

n

nChu Xiaoye glanced at them but did not chase them away. Instead, he brought them to the hyenas.

n

n

nAlthough this place was beautiful and full of food, dangers lurked everywhere.

n

n

nIt was better to let them come into contact with these dangers sooner and learn to fight the enemy sooner.

n

n

nWhen they were still more than 200 meters away from the hyena, the confused Little Curly Tail and Mei Mei finally saw it.

n

n

nThe hyena was hiding in the grass, stretching his neck and ears and staring intently at the five female lions.

n

n

nIt did not know that it was coveting gains ahead without being aware of the danger behind!

n

n

nChu Xiaoye gestured for Little Curly Tail to bring Mei Mei along and move behind the hyena to stop it.

n

n

nMeanwhile, he sneaked over from the side!

n

n

nLittle Curly Tail was very excited. He quickly understood what he meant and immediately left with Mei Mei. His amber eyes were filled with fighting spirit!

n

n

nAlthough Mei Mei was a little afraid, she relaxed when she saw that the hyena was all alone and had no helpers while there were three on her side. Furthermore, her two brothers had fought with hyenas before.

n

n

nChu Xiaoye lay in the grass and waited for a while. When he saw that Little Curly Tail and Mei Mei were about to circle to the back of the hyena, he got up, lowered his body, and carefully approached the hyena.

n

n

nAt this moment, the five female lions had already jumped up from the grass and started sprinting towards the prey!

n

n

nThe hyena that was spying on the female lions immediately got excited. It stared fixedly at the five female lions and the pitiful gnu that was being hunted by the female lions!

n

n

n“Foolish lions! No matter how hard you work or how strong you are, the delicious prey you catch will be given to us and become a feast for us hyenas!”

n

n

nThe hyena drooled and its eyes shone. It should be thinking this proudly in its heart.

n

n

nHowever.

n

n

nNot far to his right, in the grass, just 100 meters away, a young male cub was crawling and quietly approaching him!

n

n

nWhen enemies come face to face, their eyes blaze with hatred!
