Seven Cubs, Seven Fathers, Zero Days Off

Chapter 11: Chapter 11: Live with Me

Shen Yue trembled with heartache as she gazed at the Little Golden Lion in her arms, now unconscious from the pain.

She couldn’t afford to hesitate. She immediately opened the Spiritual Spring, took out some Vitality Water, and gently pried open Dabao’s little mouth to pour it inside.

Shen Yue finally let out a sigh of relief when she saw Dabao drink the Vitality Water and his breathing stabilize.

Her heart aching, she gently placed the little one back on the grass mat and stroked his small body, which was curled up in fright.

’Xiong Jiaojiao, I’ll make you repay the pain you inflicted on Dabao a thousand times over.’

She stood up and walked out of the cave, only to nearly collide with Si Muye, who was heading right for her.

Si Muye had heard her cry of alarm and was coming to check on her. He froze for a moment.

"Are... are you okay?"

Shen Yue’s eyes were icy, a silver needle held between her fingers.

"I’m fine, but they’re in a world of trouble!"

As she spoke, she saw Xiong Jiaojiao and her Beast Husbands seize the moment Si Muye’s back was turned. They were dragging Xiong Da along the ground, trying to escape.

"Don’t let them get away!"

Si Muye reacted in an instant, spinning around and charging forward to block the path of Xiong Jiaojiao’s group.

Faced with the terrifyingly imposing Si Muye, Xiong Jiaojiao shuddered in fear.

"Wh-what are you doing? I’m telling you, males can’t harm females..."

"Males can’t, but I can."

Shen Yue advanced step by step, radiating a bone-deep chill.

With a silver needle in her hand, she—Shen Yue—could not only save lives, but also take them.

To her, killing was far easier than healing. After all, saving someone sometimes required Vitality Water, not to mention time and energy.

But killing and torturing? That only required the lift of a finger.

Seeing Shen Yue like this, Xiong Jiaojiao’s courage began to falter.

"Shen Yue, wh-what are you trying to do? So I hurt your cub and stole your fish, what’s the big deal? I can give you a few fish to make up for it, and you can even beat my cub to let off some steam. That should be enough, right?!"

Hearing this, Si Muye shot Xiong Jiaojiao a look of utter contempt.

’How could such a vile female exist in this world?’

Her Beast Husbands stared at their Female Master in shock. ’She’s really willing to let their cub take a beating?’

Hah!

Shen Yue stared at Xiong Jiaojiao. ’Is this the rule of survival in the Beast World?’

’The moment their own lives are threatened, these females will abandon their own children just to save their own skins.’

’But she could never do that.’

She narrowed her eyes at Xiong Jiaojiao.

"And you call yourself a mother?"

Without giving her a chance to react, Shen Yue lunged forward and plunged the needle into a pressure point on the back of Xiong Jiaojiao’s neck.

The jab itself wasn’t very painful, just a sore, numbing sensation. Xiong Jiaojiao immediately reached for the spot.

"You, what did you do to me?"

Shen Yue slipped the needle back into her sleeve.

"It’s nothing. Didn’t you say I was abandoned by my Beast Husband? Didn’t you call my child a bastard? Well, from now on, you can have a taste of what that feels like!"

Xiong Jiaojiao was startled. "...What do you mean?"

The next second, her vision blurred. The image of Shen Yue before her seemed to shrink, and then all light vanished.

She stretched out a hand. "Why did it get so dark??"

"What’s happening? My eyes, my eyes!"

"Ah! I can’t see... my eyes!!"

Her Beast Husbands’ faces turned pale with fright as they rushed to support her.

"Female Master, what’s wrong?"

"Female Master!"

Si Muye stared at Shen Yue in shock. ’Did she do this?’

’So fast?’

’But she barely touched her, and the female went blind?’

Xiong Jiaojiao clutched her eyes. The sudden blindness sent her sprawling to the ground, screaming in terror.

"Aah!! My eyes hurt so much, what’s happening, I can’t see..."

"Xiong Er, Xiong San, what happened to my eyes??"

Her Beast Husbands stared at her eyes and let out a terrified shout.

"Female Master, your eyes, your eyes are bleeding!"

"Your eyes are ruined!"

Seeing the trickles of blood flowing from Xiong Jiaojiao’s eyes, Shen Yue clutched the silver needle in her hand, but it still wasn’t enough to satisfy her rage.

’The image of her Dabao curled up in agony flashed through her mind.’

’She wanted nothing more than to kill Xiong Jiaojiao right then and there.’

’But she wouldn’t let her off that easily.’

"Xiong Jiaojiao, consider your eyes repayment for the pain my Dabao suffered! Without your sight, I’d love to see how you’ll keep throwing your weight around on Wilderness Mountain!"

The sheer ruthlessness radiating from Shen Yue at that moment made even Si Muye shudder.

’It was the first time he had ever felt the intimidating aura of a sovereign coming from a female.’

’Gazing at this side of Shen Yue, his heart suddenly hammered in his chest, beating uncontrollably for her.’

Shen Yue glanced at the group on the ground. When she saw blood trickling from the corner of Xiong Da’s mouth, her expression grew even colder.

"All of you, get lost!"

Xiong Jiaojiao’s Beast Husbands flinched in terror. They hastily dragged both Xiong Jiaojiao and Xiong Da away, fleeing with their tails between their legs.

’That ugly female is terrifying. She blinded our Female Master so easily... she’s more incredible than the Beast God himself.’

Shen Yue returned to the cave.

Si Muye also followed her inside.

His tall, sturdy frame made the small space feel even more cramped the moment he stepped inside.

He glanced at the cave’s interior, his brow furrowing unconsciously. ’It’s too small, too dim, and too damp.’

’I can’t believe she’s been living like this all this time.’

Watching Shen Yue carefully cradle the Little Golden Lion, he couldn’t help but speak.

"A... A Yue."

It was the first time he had called her name.

Shen Yue looked up at him, her gaze questioning.

The tips of his ears turned red as he managed to choke out, "Come live with me."

The words had barely left his mouth when he realized how they sounded and quickly corrected himself.

"No, I mean, move back into my cave. It’s bigger and more spacious, much more suitable for you and the cub. Don’t worry, I don’t mean anything else by it, I just..."

Shen Yue said, "Okay."

Si Muye froze. "??"

’She agreed?’

Shen Yue looked at him. "Thank you, Si Muye. If you hadn’t shown up just now, Dabao would have..."

She looked down at the Little Golden Lion in her arms, not daring to imagine what would have happened if Si Muye hadn’t arrived in time. She might never have been able to hold this soft, adorable little one again.

’She had been too careless. She’d thought that after scaring off the members of the Gray Bear Clan this morning, Xiong Jiaojiao wouldn’t dare to bother her again so soon.’

’But she had misjudged, and it had nearly cost her Dabao.’

Hearing her thank him, Si Muye felt a pang of shame.

’It was all his fault. He’d run off in embarrassment and hadn’t been there to protect her.’

"You don’t have to thank me. I’m the one who should be thanking you. Thank you... for healing my leg."

His voice was hoarse with self-blame.

After running out at noon, he had been so consumed by his own embarrassment that he’d sprinted wildly for kilometers. Only when he finally calmed down did he realize his leg was as swift as the wind. The pain that had accompanied every step before was completely gone.

He was stunned for a long time. He wove through the forest again and again, rediscovering the feeling of running free. In that moment, he truly felt like he had been given a new lease on life.

He was overcome with an indescribable excitement. For ten years, because of his leg injury, he had fallen from the pinnacle of glory into the mire. He went from being a Great Knight envied by all to the laughingstock of the Royal City.

Once, during a battle, his leg injury prevented him from unleashing his spiritual power and Combat Power. He was captured by the enemy and imprisoned in a sunless dungeon for nearly two years.
