When she returned to Black Tiger City in the evening, Si Yan was already asleep.
Black Tiger City's most robust male landed stably at the entrance of Si Yan's cave.
The three cubs inside the cave rushed out all at once, seeing their mother sleeping deeply in the strong arms of the male.
Dongchi asked warily, "Lord Ming Yan, what's wrong with her?"
"She's tired; she fell asleep," Ming Yan replied.
As a female, his mother didn't have to participate in hunting at all. Yet those males had forced her to hunt until she was so exhausted she fell asleep.
Seeing his lively mother now motionless, sleeping in the arms of another male, Dongchi's eyes cooled. "Thank you, Lord Ming Yan, for bringing my eldest brother back. Now, please hand her over to me."
Ming Yan looked down at the three snake Beastman cubs.
Dongchi was proud, Xi Qing was cool and quiet, and Bei Ji was the gentlest, most like the female in his arms.
He bent down and handed the female in his arms to them.
