But many wolf beastmen were surrounding the tribal head. Even if he was considered formidable among the three-striped beastmen, he couldn’t shake them off any time soon.
Despair welled up in Molly’s eyes as she watched her father get farther and farther away from her.
Suddenly, the body holding Molly shook. Immediately following that, she fell to the ground with a thud.
Raising her head, she saw a tiger fighting the man carrying her earlier. In their human form, wolf beastmen had weaker combat powers, so he hurriedly transformed into his beast form. The two beasts pounced at each other simultaneously!
At this moment, time seemed to slow down. The tiger beastman battling the wolf appeared particularly valiant, and every piece of fur on his body exuded charm.
Molly’s heart throbbed. She blurted out, “If you defeat him, I’ll become mates with you!”
Bang!
The tiger beastman easily pinned the wolf to the ground and snapped his neck with a bite.
The tiger beastman walked to Molly’s side and let out a low growl from his tiger mouth. [Really?]
Molly cocked her head sideways and looked at him for a while, then suddenly widened her eyes. “It’s you?”

Cuckoo—
Alva finally arrived, albeit too late. As he flew, he reached out and prepared to catch Molly.
The tiger beastman turned his head and got into an attacking stance. Molly hurriedly raised both hands at Alva and said, “He’s here to save me.”
Alva grabbed Molly’s wrists with his claws and soared to the skies, then lowered his head to look at the tiger beastman on the ground. For some reason, he found this tiger an eyesore.

In the waterhole, bubbles sank one after the other, forming a dense mountain at the bottom.
It was pitch dark in the water, save for a pearl giving off a glow in the far distance. Tens of females had their gazes riveted upon that light source, unable to shift their eyes away. The same went for Bai Qingqing at the bottom of the pile.
In the darkness, like the way moths were drawn to light, everyone was staring at that smudge of brightness as though it contained all their hope.
Only when all the females came down did Bluepool dive into the water.
“Bai Qingqing.”
Bai Qingqing sensed her bubble move, then Bluepool’s voice entered her ears.
“Have all the females come into the water?” she asked.
Bluepool replied with a smile, “Mm. Is your heart put to ease now?”
Bai Qingqing smiled and responded with an “Mm.” “It’s so dark in here. Is Parker outside? Can you get him to bring the luminous balls in our home over? We can’t see anything down here.”
“Okay.”
Bluepool agreed immediately. He floated to the surface, and shortly after, came back with a bundle of light.
Although the luminous balls weren’t eye-catching during the day, it had the effect of turning night into day in this pitch-dark environment. The entire waterhole instantly brightened up, revealing the panicked and horrified expressions of the females.
Bai Qingqing looked for Becky and Ford while she was in the bubble, hand propped against the bubble as she rolled towards them.
The minute the bubble started moving, the little cubs got excited. Thinking that their mommy was playing a game with them, they started running about haphazardly.
Roar~
A bubble rolled about haphazardly as it got pulled in different directions.
Bai Qingqing lowered her head and pushed at the bubble for a while but didn’t manage to advance. Instead, the bubble rolled backward due to the force exerted by the cubs, causing her to do a reverse somersault.
Roar! The leopard cubs cheered even more merrily now. Even Bluepool couldn’t help but laugh.
Lying at the bottom of the waterhole, Bai Qingqing’s body kept shaking as the bubble moved. She smacked Eldest’s head in annoyance and said, “Stop fooling around! Bring me to Becky.”
Howl!
The leopard cubs obeyed the command and instantly ran in the same direction. The strength of the three leopards caused the bubble to roll speedily. Lying on the ground, Bai Qingqing nearly did a headstand. In the end, she gave up and got up to roll the bubble together with her little ones.
The bubbles in their way were squeezed away amid the females’ shrieks. The small mountain of bubbles fell apart and scattered all over the bottom of the waterhole.
