nHe was scared to death!

n

n

nLuckily, none of the hyenas chased after him.

n

n

n

n

nAfter entering the forest, Chu Xiaoye heaved a sigh of relief. He looked back with a lingering fear on his face.

n

n

nThat arrogant aura that was previously insufferable immediately seemed to deflate and turn into nothingness.

n

n

nHe started to run.

n

n

nThe hyenas thought that he had help, but he was actually alone.

n

n

n

n

nWhen the other party reacted, they would definitely growl in anger.

n

n

nRegardless, tonight went smoothly.

n

n

nTomorrow night, he would visit this enemy’s territory again!

n

n

nA blood debt had to be paid with blood!

n

n

n

n

nHe wanted to let them understand that the dignity and blood of lions were definitely not something a group of shameless dogs like them could trample on!

n

n

nIt was still early.

n

n

nHe decided to catch another prey.

n

n

nThe storage room on the tree had already been built. They urgently needed to fill it with dried prey. Otherwise, they would not feel safe looking at it.

n

n

nThis forest was still lush and green.

n

n

nHowever, the grassland had already turned yellow.

n

n

n

n

nOver this period of time, there was not a single rainfall.

n

n

nThe river at the foot of the hill also slowed down and the water level started to drop.

n

n

nSome large herbivores had already started to migrate.

n

n

nAll sorts of signs indicated that the dry season was approaching.

n

n

nDuring the dry season on the grassland, not only was there a lack of food, the weather was also dry and there was less water. Even the rivers would dry up.

n

n

nMany animals’ lives might quietly end in this difficult season.

n

n

nNo matter how hard they worked, they could not resist nature.

n

n

nThe night was very quiet.

n

n

n

n

nChu Xiaoye was hiding in the bushes, waiting for his prey.

n

n

nHe was a lion.

n

n

nKilling was only for survival.

n

n

nWhether it was hunting prey or hunting enemies, it was all to better survive.

n

n

nOf course, having been a human before, it was inevitable that he would have some human emotions.

n

n

nRegardless of whether they were good or bad, regardless of whether these feelings would be rubbed away in the future when he struggled to survive, he was trying his best to integrate into this new “human” life.

n

n

n“Whoosh!”

n

n

nThe grass in front of him suddenly swayed.

n

n

nThen, a thin wild rabbit popped out with its ears pricked. It looked around and walked in front of a berry.

n

n

nJust as it lowered its head and was about to eat, Chu Xiaoye, who had been waiting for a long time, suddenly rushed out from the grass!

n

n

nAt the same time!

n

n

nOn the other side of the grass, there was also a figure that rushed out with almost the same speed and actions as him!

n

n

nThe two figures suddenly paused and jumped in fright. They stood still and looked at each other with shock and vigilance.

n

n

n

n

n“Whoosh!”

n

n

nThe frightened wild rabbit immediately took this opportunity to jump into the grass and flee!

n

n

n“Roar! Roar!”

n

n

n“It’s you! It’s you again!”

n

n

nThe little leopard that had rushed out from the bushes and was preparing to hunt bared its fangs at Chu Xiaoye and cried out angrily.

n

n

nChu Xiaoye looked at her. He was stunned at first, then shocked as he looked at the grass behind her.

n

n

nSince the young female leopard was here, her mother was definitely here too!

n

n

nI better go.

n

n

nAfter all, he had snatched their prey a few times previously and felt a little bad.

n

n

n“Roar—”

n

n

nHe pretended to be fierce and roared at the young female leopard, preparing to turn around and leave.

n

n

nUnexpectedly, just as he roared, the aggressive young female leopard immediately shrank its neck, turned around, and ran!

n

n

nIn the grass, the big female leopard stood up and looked at him with flickering eyes. She did not stop and immediately ran away with the little female leopard!

n

n

nThe mother-daughter pair ran extremely quickly and did not stop for a moment!

n

n

n“…”

n

n

nChu Xiaoye stood rooted to the ground with a confused expression.

n

n

nWas he that scary?

n

n

nOr was his body already very strong and looked a little like an adult lion?

n

n

nLeopards were indeed very timid.

n

n

nSince they had left, this hunting ground still belonged to him.

n

n

nHe returned to the grass and continued to hide, waiting for his prey to arrive.

n

n

nHalf an hour later.

n

n

nA female warthog walked into the forest with two young warthogs and started to eat the fruits on the ground happily.

n

n

nChu Xiaoye was stunned for a moment, but he did not hesitate at all. His gaze was fixed on the fat and healthy female warthog.

n

n

nAlthough the warthog was not big, it ran extremely quickly. Two sharp fangs grew at the corner of its mouth, and it was not to be trifled with.

n

n

nTheir life force was extremely tenacious, especially in the dry season. Most animals were extremely weak from lack of water, but they lived freely. It was not a problem for them to not drink a drop of water for months.

n

n

nTherefore, even though they had many natural enemies, their numbers were still considerable.

n

n

nAt this moment.

n

n

nThe two inexperienced little warthogs had already left the mother warthog’s side and were walking towards the patch of grass Chu Xiaoye was hiding in.

n

n

nThe female warthog snorted and followed them.

n

n

nHowever, it only took a few steps before it stopped in place. It raised its head and looked warily at the dense grass. It let out an anxious grunt, as if it was calling the two children back.

n

n

nWhen warthog searched for food, they usually liked to eat in the open grassland. This was so that they could see further.

n

n

nEven when entering the forest and eating, they would never approach those dense bushes that could not be seen clearly.

n

n

nThese two little warthogs clearly did not have any experience.

n

n

nAs for the female warthog, it looked much more careful.

n

n

nPerhaps the two little warthogs were too happy eating their food. When they heard her shout, they did not immediately turn around and return. Instead, they walked even closer to the patch of grass Chu Xiaoye was hiding in.

n

n

nThe female warthog felt helpless and could only follow vigilantly, as if it wanted to personally inspect the grass.

n

n

nRight at this moment, a figure suddenly jumped out of the grass with a whoosh and pounced on it!

n

n

nThe female warthog let out a grunt and turned to run!

n

n

nThe two little warthogs were frightened and ran in different directions in a panic!

n

n

nChu Xiaoye did not chase after the two slower young warthogs. Instead, he chased after the mother warthog!

n

n

nHis training during this period of time had made his muscles extremely developed. He could jump further and his running speed could even catch up to that of a leopard when hunting!

n

n

n“Whoosh!”

n

n

nHe chased after it like lightning and jumped up, landing behind the female warthog. He extended his right claw and tripped its hind leg!

n

n

nThe female warthog’s body tilted and she fell to the ground, rolling miserably in the grass.

n

n

nBefore it could get up, Chu Xiaoye jumped up and bit its throat!

n

n

nThe female warthog opened its mouth and let out a miserable roar.

n

n

nThe two little warthogs fled in panic, not knowing where they went. They did not know how they could survive after losing their mother.

n

n

nChu Xiaoye picked up the warthog and turned to leave.

n

n

nIn the world of animals, pity and mercy did not exist.

n

n

nThere was only one word: Survive.

n

n

nAfter he left.

n

n

nThe leopard cub and daughter, each with a little warthog in their mouths, walked out of the forest beside him and stared blankly in the direction he had left in.

n

n

nThe buzzing of poisonous bees soon came from the bushes not far away.
