The leopard cubs followed closely behind Muir, arriving at their destination, but they didn’t stop. They pounced straight for their mommy’s legs.
Just as their muddy paws were about to print pairs of paw marks on the snow-white dress, Muir stretched out his long arm and stopped all three leopard cubs.
Bai Qingqing heaved a sigh of relief, feigning anger as she reproached them. “How many times have I told you that you aren’t allowed to climb onto Mommy with dirty legs?”
“Howl~” The leopard cubs admitted their mistake very quickly, but there was no way that they’d change their ways.
“Naughty!” Flicking the head of one of the leopard cubs, Bai Qingqing looked toward Curtis, who was still walking slowly, and urged him, “Hurry up. Otherwise, we’ll go over first.”
Curtis was in no hurry. He raised his brows and asked, “You still remember the way?”
“Uhh…” Bai Qingqing gave it some thought and then said dejectedly, “I don’t.”
Seeing that she was dejected, Muir’s heart ached and he asked, “That place is within the village?”
“Mmhmm.” Bai Qingqing nodded.
Muir recognized Chinese wisteria flowers. Moreover, they were easy to find. It would be very easy to find a stretch of light purple in the village.
He smiled and then suddenly undid the animal skin around his waist. Bai Qingqing’s face flushed up and she quickly looked around, only looking toward Muir reproachfully after seeing that there was no one else around.
“Why did you…”
Before she could finish her words, Muir had turned into a huge eagle beastman. Although his feathers were in a battered state, his majesty wasn’t reduced in the least. His strength was undeniable.
Shaking his wings, the feeling of dislocated bone had disappeared. He could now move agilely.
Overwhelmed by the delight from having become mates with Bai Qingqing, Muir had even neglected his own body in the past few days. He only just discovered that his wings were good as new and suddenly felt delighted.
Screech!
Letting out a high-pitched eagle cry, Muir’s wings flashed and his body shot up like a rocket, flying into the air with a “swoosh”.
Bai Qingqing raised her head and looked at him. The three leopard cubs next to her feet also had their necks raised as they looked at the eagle beastman in the sky. Although the mother and sons had different body sizes, their expressions and postures had a close resemblance. If that scene was captured, it’d definitely win over many people from the adorableness.
From the sky, Muir saw that scene very clearly through his eyes. When his gaze met with theirs, the feeling in his heart grew even more intense, and in that instant, his wings started to flap even more vigorously.
With a downward slide, he landed in front of Bai Qingqing, his pitch-black eagle eyes emitting a clear delight. He wanted to do something to release his feelings but had no idea how to get closer to her.
In the end, he lowered his body and turned his head to let out a cry toward her.
“You want to carry me and fly there?” Tempted, Bai Qingqing picked up the animal skin on the ground, sneaking a glance at Curtis as she got up.
As expected, Curtis’s expression had sunk. However, she had won one round again and now felt very good about it.
“Coo-coo~” Muir gave Bai Qingqing an affirmative reply.
Bai Qingqing asked, still feeling worried, “Have your wings recovered? Will you be able to carry me?”
“Coo~” Muir gave another affirmative reply.
Bai Qingqing ran over to Muir’s right wing and pinched the joint. “Don’t put on a front. It’d be bad if you end up suffering from implications in the future.”
Beastmen had extremely good recovery abilities. Their injuries would improve with every passing day. Some discomfort felt yesterday could be completely fine today.
Muir had spent his life alone, so when he suddenly heard such words that were filled with concern, an unfamiliar feeling rose in his heart, causing his heart to feel extremely warm.
He docilely tried to sense his ring wing again before stretching it out, picking Bai Qingqing’s leg up with the tip of his wing and then raising it slightly. Bai Qingqing let out a cry and sat down on the wing, sliding along his wing and onto his back.
