Chapter 440: The White Tiger Family 【10,000 Words! Seeking Monthly Votes!】 (Part 1)
The White Cub's lips and nose were still pink, and its four tiny claws were adorably pink as well. A newborn White Cub rushed towards Yan Bei Han, opening its mouth to bite onto the hem of her skirt.
It let out a cute roar, trying its best to look fierce.
The toothless mouth bit onto the skirt's hem, and it looked up at Yan Bei Han, demanding the release of Little Bear.
Fang Che understood the message in its eyes.
"Quickly let go of my boss!"
"I'll bite you to death! I'm so fierce!"
The White Cub roared and bit, but it didn't damage the skirt at all; instead, it left some drool.
"Ya!"
Yan Bei Han was delighted and surprised, "How did another little thing appear?"
She reached out, grabbed the White Cub, lifted it by the back of its neck, and held it up to examine it.
The White Cub's fate was now in her hands, and it immediately calmed down. Its small body curled up in the air, its four claws hanging down, looking helpless and at the mercy of others.
It let out a weak whimper, "Whine~ Whine~...?"
The White Cub's body was covered in soft fur, and its fur felt incredibly soft to the touch. Yan Bei Han instantly took a liking to it.
Excitedly, she looked at Fang Che, "Look, look, this little one is so cute too!"
But she saw Fang Che's face, which was as serious as if he had witnessed the end of the world.
"What's wrong?"
Yan Bei Han held one of the little creatures in each hand, looking at one with affection and the other with equal fondness. She couldn't let go, saying, "Why is your face so grim?"
Fang Che let out a sigh, his expression almost on the verge of tears, and said with a distorted face, "I think I've found the reason why all living beings in this region were exterminated decades ago."
"What reason?"
Yan Bei Han stroked the White Cub.
The little one seemed to be enjoying it, stretching out its limbs and rolling over to expose its belly.
"It's probably... about to give birth."
Fang Che sighed, "So, I'm worried that the child might get hurt in any way..."
"A child?"
Yan Bei Han was taken aback.
Fang Che nodded, looking at the White Cub with its fetal fur still intact, "Yes, a child."
Yan Bei Han caressed the White Cub's soft white fur while muttering, "Where did this child... come from..."
Suddenly, she seemed to realize something, and her whole body stiffened.
Her hand, stiff and immobile, rested on the White Cub's back. She abruptly looked up at Fang Che's face, her eyes filled with terror. Then, she quickly lowered her head to look at the White Cub enjoying her touch, and her pupils dilated to their maximum, "A child???"
Fang Che's face contorted, "If my estimation is correct, it should be this little thing."
"..."
Yan Bei Han's hand jerked back from the White Cub's back as if she had been shocked. She almost screamed, "Just this little thing?"
"With a certainty of over ninety-five percent."
Fang Che sighed, "As far as I know... for a beast of this caliber, their lifespan is usually extremely long. So, their growth during the juvenile phase is also extremely slow."
Yan Bei Han was stunned.
Looking at the adorable White Cub by her side, her mind went blank.
"Perhaps it will take several thousand years to reach adulthood."
Fang Che continued, "The previous battle caused quite a stir and was very intense... Now it seems that it was a mutual loss, or you could say... well, temporarily, we didn't keep an eye on our child, and the little one ran out..."
Fang Che spoke with a look of exasperation, "Then, when Little Bear saw it, the two little ones played together and got along so well that it brought it over."
Yan Bei Han covered her face with both hands.
Oh, what a situation!
An existence they couldn't even dodge had allowed Little Bear to roam freely for less than half an hour, and now it had brought another little one to their side?
If that monster beast were to discover its missing child and come looking for it...
At this thought, Yan Bei Han didn't know what expression she should have.
Her face also became as strange as Fang Che's: twisted, as if both laughing and crying.
After a moment of silence, Yan Bei Han asked, "Then... what should we do now?"
"My mind is also a mess."
Fang Che smiled bitterly, "But it's certain that running now is already too late."
Yan Bei Han completely believed this statement.
Don't be fooled by the current silence outside, with the mountains and valleys quiet and still.
However, if they were to run now, they would undoubtedly face a devastating calamity!
"Let's take it one step at a time."
Fang Che squatted down, hugged the White Cub, and said, "I'll communicate and build a relationship with this little fellow first. Meanwhile, I'll practice my skills, allowing the attracted heavenly spirit energy to benefit this little thing as well... Let's see if this flattery can satisfy this powerful being."
He had a hunch that Little Bear had evolved and become close to him due to his Boundless Dharmic Scripture. Perhaps the little tiger would be the same?
Yan Bei Han felt anxious and flustered, "It might not be effective."
"We must try; we can't just sit and wait for death."
Fang Che leaned against a large tree trunk and sat cross-legged with his back straight, beginning his cultivation.
The little tiger in Fang Che's embrace was extremely obedient, rubbing its fluffy head against Fang Che's chest. It rolled over, then rolled again...
Yan Bei Han also started practicing, wanting to contribute her strength.
But as soon as she began her practice...
Little Bear toddled over and leaned against Fang Che as well.
Fang Che exerted all his strength, and the Boundless Dharmic Scripture continuously absorbed spirit energy. The spirit energy in the sky was then attracted like a tide, pouring into his head.
Immediately, all impurities in the spirit energy were automatically expelled, and the pure energy entered his meridians, flowing into his dantian, and then from the dantian, it circulated throughout his body. After one cycle, it had transformed into the refined spirit energy of the Boundless Dharmic Scripture.
Then, the cultivation continued, and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth kept pouring in, transforming...
The little tiger cub stopped rolling and quietly laid on Fang Che's chest, while the little bear sat on Fang Che's lap, its buttocks nestled in his crotch.
Both cubs closed their eyes, remaining quiet and exceptionally well-behaved.
Time slowly passed.
At some point, Yan Bei Han had stopped her cultivation and stood under a tree, carefully observing Fang Che.
Her eyes held a look of utmost seriousness.
She could now confirm that these incredible occurrences were all due to Fang Che's cultivation technique.
This technique held a fatal attraction for spiritual beasts.
The higher the level of the spiritual beast, the more evident the effect.
However, neither her own nor others' cultivation techniques possessed such allure.
Yan Bei Han's eyes held a probing gaze as she pondered: Where did Fang Che obtain this cultivation technique?
She reminisced, recalling a distant memory of her grandfather's tales of the past.
"In the past... there was once a Beast Taming Sect that could enslave and command monster beasts... Later, when the Demon Sage broke through, the Beast Taming Sect was annihilated, and all their cultivation technique legacies were destroyed in an instant..."
Yan Bei Han furrowed her brows, thinking to herself: Could it be that Fang Che is cultivating the lost cultivation technique of the Beast Taming Sect? Otherwise, how can this be explained?
Regardless, Yan Bei Han now felt slightly more at ease.
Since Fang Che possessed such abilities, the chances of overcoming the crisis here had indeed increased significantly.
It all depended on him.
Yan Bei Han racked her brains, trying to recall, but her memories were too vague. If it weren't for the intriguing fact that he could command monster beasts, she probably wouldn't have been able to recall anything at all.
"I'll look into it thoroughly once we're out."
Yan Bei Han furrowed her brows: "I seem to recall someone mentioning that the Beast Taming Sect's cultivation technique didn't progress smoothly in the later stages. Should I remind Night Demon to switch to a different cultivation technique?"
When Fang Che finally finished his cultivation, both cubs fell into a deep sleep.
One black and one white, their fur distinct.
Yan Bei Han asked casually: "No wonder you're so popular with the cubs. You're cultivating the lost technique of the Beast Taming Sect, right?"
"Huh?"
Fang Che looked a bit dumbfounded.
"You don't know?"
"I don't know. This was the only cultivation technique in my family since I was young. I don't know where it came from." Fang Che put on a 'very sincere' expression.
"I suppose you don't know either."
Yan Bei Han chuckled: "Otherwise, it's strange that my natural affinity with spiritual beasts is still inferior to yours."
"That's right, you're correct."
Fang Che nodded repeatedly.
Yan Bei Han smiled triumphantly, thinking to herself: Fortunately, I held back. If I had mentioned switching his cultivation technique now, this clever fellow would have immediately guessed my suspicions about his identity...
"I'll inform Night Demon after we leave."
She played with the Communication Jade, communicating with the Five Spirit Toad.
Yan Bei Han sighed and gave up.
Within the Yin Yang Realm, the Communication Jade was just a useless rock. Even the Five Spirit Toad seemed to have vanished.
Soon after, the little bear woke up, shaking its body and shedding a layer of fine black fur. It began whining for fish.
Immediately after, the little tiger cub also woke up, shaking its body and shedding a layer of milk fur. It started whining for milk.
Yan Bei Han took out some fish, and the little bear ate happily.
But the little tiger cub couldn't bite into the fish, and it began whining and cooing, its eyes fixed on Yan Bei Han's chest. Then, it used its four claws to climb up her body.
It was incredibly persistent.
Yan Bei Han was dumbfounded and quickly removed the little tiger cub from her body.
Where can I find that thing?
Fang Che burst into laughter beside her.
The little tiger cub cried in distress, wondering why it couldn't have milk. It circled around Yan Bei Han.
"Whine, whine... Roar, roar..."
So hungry! So hungry...
Yan Bei Han was exasperated: "You better think of a solution quickly!"
Fang Che communicated with the little bear, but it didn't understand. However, the little bear knew what the problem was, so it swaggered over to the little white tiger cub, waving its arms and legs and roaring.
The little white tiger cub's ears twitched, and its eyes held a clear look of innocence: "Whine, whine?"
The little bear waved its arms and legs, even standing upright. It pointed towards the depths of the forest and roared twice.
The meaning was clear: If you want milk, go back and find your mother.
This milk... belongs to someone else.
The little white tiger cub looked dumbfounded, turning its head to look, then turning back to stare at Yan Bei Han's chest. It whimpered twice: I can't have milk?
"Roar, roar..." The little bear shook its head: You can't have milk!
The little white tiger cub tilted its head, its ears twitching, and its eyes revealed a strong emotion. It whimpered twice: I can't have milk?
But seeing Yan Bei Han's firm refusal, the little white tiger cub could only whimper in dissatisfaction, turning around and leaving with its tail drooping in unhappiness.
As it reached the edge of the grass, it turned back and whimpered twice at the little bear.
Don't go too far. I'll come find you again after I'm done eating.
Little Bear: Roar, roar...
Under the astonished gaze of Fang Che and Yan Bei Han, the little white tiger cub wagged its tail and whimpered once. A white light flashed, and with a whoosh, it instantly disappeared.
Fang Che: "...
Yan Bei Han: "...
The two of them stared at each other, both seeing the shock in each other's eyes.
So fast? But they both understood.
With the departure of the little white tiger cub, the moment of destiny had finally arrived!
...
Deep within the mountains.
On the mountain's slope.
A white light flickered faintly.
Little White Tiger appeared in a flash of white light, and with its tiny claws, it pressed against a protruding rock nearby.
Then, a flash of light passed by, shattering into pieces, revealing a massive cave.
Little White Tiger whimpered and rushed inside.
The light flashed again, restoring everything to its original state.
Inside the cave, a giant white tiger sat, watching as Little White Tiger dashed to its side. Its enormous eyes shone with gentleness and love.
It extended its tongue and licked Little White Tiger, then lay down on its side.
Little White Tiger whimpered and pounced, suckling on a nipple, eating it with a sweet delight.
It hummed contentedly while eating.
On the other side of the cave, another giant white tiger, a male, lay tiredly, its fur dull, clearly exhausted, perhaps severely injured.
This tiger was larger than the female by a circle and a half.
Just looking at its mountain-like size, one knew this tiger was not to be trifled with.
Both white tigers had bodies several times larger than ordinary tigers, and though massive, their curves were graceful, giving an overall harmonious and beautiful impression.
Little White Tiger ate until its belly was full, finally satisfied.
As it was about to roll over and play, the mother tiger slapped it down with a paw.
Immediately, the mother tiger scolded it with a 'woof woof'.
Clearly, the little one had sneaked out, infuriating the mother tiger.
But as the cub was nursing, it wasn't appropriate to scold it. As the saying goes, 'Don't scold the child at the dinner table.' So, she decided to wait until it finished eating.
She had just given birth, losing eighty-five percent of her strength; it would take some time to recover. Her husband had also fought a strong enemy and was severely injured.
This little one had actually sneaked out.
It was simply too disobedient.
The mother tiger pressed down on the little one, scolding it with a 'woof woof'.
The father tiger opened his mouth to intercede, "Woof woof..."
Stop scolding, the child is still young, it's normal for them not to listen.
The mother tiger became furious and roared at her listless husband, "Woof woof woof..."
Why are you acting all high and mighty now? Decided to be a good father now? From the time I was pregnant until now, how many days have you taken care of the child? You only care about your own pleasure, ignoring the child, and now that the child has made a mistake, you're acting all innocent?
This is simply outrageous! As the saying goes, 'If the child is not taught, the father is to blame.' The child is not listening now, and you, as an irresponsible father, bear a great responsibility...
The father tiger whimpered twice and hung his head, feigning deafness.
I didn't hear anything... I didn't hear a thing... Hmm, I'm deaf now, you can keep talking...
The little tiger whimpered, its tender voice arguing, defending itself. The mother tiger grew even angrier and slapped the little bean-sized creature repeatedly.
Dare to talk back!
You're asking for it!
The little tiger whimpered pitifully, enduring a beating of maternal love. Even its ears drooped.
Its eyes pleaded pitifully, shimmering with entreaty.
As for asking the father... Hey, this old thing is of no use at a time like this...
Regarding this issue, the little tiger already understood.
The mother tiger vented her anger, then began to interrogate.
"Tell me, where did you go?"
The little tiger immediately became alert, "Woof woof... Woof woof woof woof..."
"I met my big brother, he's great. I also met two strange two-legged creatures. One had a puffed-up chest and wouldn't let me drink milk... So annoying! The other had a really nice smell, and he could help me cultivate... I feel like I'm already invincible now..."
Hmm? Both the father and mother tigers' eyes flashed with serious bewilderment.
Their large eyes met, and both saw the thick bewilderment in each other's eyes.
Living beings?
In this realm, how could there still be living beings? Weren't they all killed?
When I was pregnant, your overly anxious spirit made you directly kill everything within a thousand li radius, leaving nothing alive. Anything that could breathe or move was basically slaughtered.
How could there still be living beings?
What's going on with the Black Market?
Is there a conspiracy?
Immediately, they began to question more thoroughly.
The little tiger was interrogated by its parents, asked over and over again, until it was tired of answering, and after the last round of questioning, it yawned and fell asleep.
It was mentally exhausted from the interrogation...
Inside the cave, the father and mother tigers exchanged glances, discussing the issue.
"Woof woof?"
"Woof?"
"Woof woof woof?"
"Woof woof woof..."
After a moment, they made a decision.
...
Little White Tiger had been gone for half a day, and Fang Che and Yan Bei Han were both alert, waiting.
Later, they each focused on their cultivation, while Little Bear continued to hang on Fang Che, and Yan Bei Han only glanced at it, no longer trying to grab it.
Since Fang Che's cultivation method was beneficial to the little one, they would give it more. No problem.
After cultivation, they engaged in another spar.
The sparring became more intense, but the one-sided beatings from Yan Bei Han didn't happen. Instead, they both displayed their skills, fought fiercely, then reflected on their shortcomings to improve efficiency.
