nThe male hyena was terrified.
n
n
nThe cub’s slash scared it out of its wits.
n
n
n
n
nThere was a burning pain on his head.
n
n
nFresh blood flowed down his face.
n
n
nIts heart was filled with fear.
n
n
nIts companion was bitten to death and it was slapped away. This terrifying little lion would be its lifelong nightmare!
n
n
n
n
nIt ran out of the bushes fearfully and ran towards its territory.
n
n
nThat was the safest place.
n
n
nNo matter how powerful an enemy was, they would not dare to be impudent in their home.
n
n
n“Moo—Moo—”
n
n
n
n
nThe cry of a water buffalo suddenly came from the territory.
n
n
nThe hyena was excited when it heard that. It increased its speed and ran over.
n
n
n“Ow Ow! Ow Ow!”
n
n
nHis companions shouted.
n
n
nPrey had entered their territory!
n
n
nFor some reason, this unlucky water buffalo actually left the water buffalo herd and accidentally stepped into their camp.
n
n
n
n
nThis was a delicious meal!
n
n
nWhen the male hyena heard the cry, it ignored the wound on its head and immediately drooled as it ran over.
n
n
nOnly hyenas that participated in the hunt were qualified to share the food.
n
n
nThe hyenas were matriarchal and their ranks were strict. The status of male hyenas was generally lower than that of female hyenas.
n
n
nWhether it was to enjoy food, other resources, or even mate, they were allocated according to their status.
n
n
nAs for those who had made contributions, they would naturally be given priority. In fact, they could even obtain the Queen’s favor and become top dogs.
n
n
nTherefore, many male hyenas had to put in their best effort and climb up.
n
n
nAt this moment.
n
n
n
n
nThe unlucky water buffalo was already surrounded by more than ten hyenas.
n
n
nThe other hyenas were rushing over one after another.
n
n
nThe ten-over hyenas did not attack. Instead, they cried out as they ran, deliberately exhausting the water buffalo’s energy slowly.
n
n
nWater buffaloes were huge and had a pair of sharp horns on their heads. They usually appeared in groups and were rarely seen alone.
n
n
nTherefore, even lions did not dare to hunt them easily.
n
n
nUnless they encountered the elderly, the weak, or the sick or when there was a severe lack of food.
n
n
nFurthermore, they needed the lion to help before they had a chance to defeat them most of the time.
n
n
nWhen lions worked together to kill water buffaloes, they had to expend their energy first.
n
n
nThen, the lion would attack head-on and bite the water buffalo’s throat, then use his weight to drag the water buffalo to the ground.
n
n
nIn the end, the female lions would surge forward.
n
n
nHyenas did not need to do that when hunting water buffaloes.
n
n
nThey mostly attacked from the back. Furthermore, they never waited for the prey to die before attacking together and eating the prey alive.
n
n
nAt this moment.
n
n
n
n
nThere were already more than twenty hyenas hunting this water buffalo.
n
n
nThe male hyenas, who were eager to perform, started to bite carefully under the barking of the hyena queen, Samantha.
n
n
nRegardless of whether they bit it or not, every time they dashed forward, they would immediately retreat and not continue fighting.
n
n
nAs for this water buffalo, it was panting and exhausted from running around in circles.
n
n
nThe male hyena that had escaped from the bushes was especially active. Every time, it would quickly bite the water buffalo’s thigh and jump away.
n
n
nIts head was covered in blood and it looked ferocious.
n
n
nIts encounter tonight made it understand that it could only live longer if it worked hard and climbed to the highest point.
n
n
nIt no longer wanted to be a scout!
n
n
nIt wanted to have a large retinue!
n
n
nIt wanted to eat the best prey!
n
n
nHe wanted to live in the best place!
n
n
n“Ow Ow! Ow Ow!”
n
n
nQueen Samantha’s cry seemed to be encouraging and tempting, making it more brave and fierce.
n
n
nWhen the other hyenas attracted the water buffalo’s attention, it suddenly rushed up from behind and burrowed its head into the water buffalo’s legs. It raised its neck and bit down hard!
n
n
n“Moo—”
n
n
nThe water buffalo suddenly let out a scream. Its two hind legs turned limp and it knelt on the ground.
n
n
nThen, its two front legs trembled as it slowly knelt down.
n
n
nThe intense pain made it lose all its strength!
n
n
nIt could not hold on anymore.
n
n
nThe other hyenas immediately rushed forward and started biting from behind it excitedly.
n
n
nThe male hyena did a great job and bit down on the water buffalo’s testicles. It retreated from under the water buffalo and started wolfing down the food at the side.
n
n
nSamantha, the hyena queen, ran over excitedly. She did not look at it but chased away the other hyenas behind the water buffalo. She occupied the good place alone and started biting!
n
n
nThe water buffalo knelt on the ground and raised its head, letting out a miserable scream, but it could not move. It seemed to be numb from the pain.
n
n
nIn the grass not far away, Chu Xiaoye lay there motionless, quietly watching the scene of eating and slicing.
n
n
nThe scene of Gigi’s death appeared in his mind.
n
n
nHis eyes were filled with hatred and killing intent.
n
n
nHowever, he knew that he could not be rash now.
n
n
nThe thirty-over hyenas almost all came out to enjoy the sumptuous dinner in frenzy and excitement.
n
n
nThe air was filled with the strong smell of blood.
n
n
nChu Xiaoye looked at the Hyena Camp not far away.
n
n
nThere were also a few small hyenas wandering anxiously around the cave, letting out childish cries.
n
n
nSince he knew about the hyenas’ camp, he would become their nightmare starting tonight!
n
n
nThe water buffalo’s cries became weaker and weaker.
n
n
nIt turned around and stared at the group of cruel bandits with its watery eyes.
n
n
nThe hyena queen had already burrowed her entire head into the water buffalo’s body and was greedily eating the internal organs inside.
n
n
nThe other hyenas were sharing the water buffalo’s sides.
n
n
nAfter a moment.
n
n
nThe back half of the water buffalo’s body turned into pieces of meat that entered the stomachs of the bandits.
n
n
nNot even bones were left!
n
n
nThe male hyena that had done a great job went to snatch another piece of meat. It quickly ran to the grass at the side and started eating.
n
n
nIt deserved it.
n
n
nIt started to fantasize about being chosen by the Queen, becoming a pretty boy, and walking to the peak of dog life.
n
n
nSuddenly, it seemed to have sensed something!
n
n
nIt let go of the flesh in its mouth and raised its head to look at the grass in front of it.
n
n
n“Whoosh!”
n
n
nA figure suddenly jumped up from the grass. Like a bolt of lightning, it drew a beautiful arc under the moonlight and landed in front of it!
n
n
nOf course, it also bit its throat!
n
n
n“It’s him… It’s him… It’s him again…”
n
n
nThe male hyena fell to the ground, its eyes wide with fear and shock, as if it could not believe it.
n
n
nThis cub had followed it to their hyena camp!
n
n
nIt opened its mouth to sound the alarm, but its throat was blocked by the blood that was quickly flowing out. It could not make any sound.
n
n
nIts heart was filled with despair and unwillingness.
n
n
nIt did not want to die yet.
n
n
nIt had yet to become a pretty boy or mate with the Queen. It had yet to reach the peak of dog life!
n
n
nDamn lion!
n
n
n“Ow Ow! Ow Ow!”
n
n
nUnder the terrified cries of its companions, it swallowed its last breath.
n
n
nChu Xiaoye let go of its neck but did not leave immediately. Instead, with a whoosh, he rushed in front of another female hyena at his fastest speed and bit its head!
n
n
n“Crack!”
n
n
nThe female hyena’s head was bitten to pieces!
n
n
nAt this moment, the hyenas were in chaos. Some fled in panic, while others pretended to be weak.
n
n
nHowever, none of them went forward.
n
n
nThey did not know that the one that dared to attack their camp and kill their companions was only a young cub!
n
n
nThey looked at the cub in fear and then looked around in fear.
n
n
nSoon, the previously noisy grassland gradually became strangely quiet.
n
n
nThe water buffalo had already stopped breathing and only a little bit of its corpse was left.
n
n
nAll the hyenas looked fearfully and quietly at the cub that was biting their companion.
n
n
nIncluding their queen.
n
n
nChu Xiaoye put down the hyena corpse in his mouth, glanced at them coldly and disdainfully, and then turned to leave.
n
n
nHis steps were very slow, as if he was taking a walk.
n
n
nNo hyenas chased after him.
n
n
nSoon, he walked into the distant forest and disappeared into the night.
n
n
nTomorrow night.
n
n
nHe would come again.
