Chapter 575 - The Lion King Returns
It was still the gra.s.sland.
His golden mane fluttered in the morning wind as he ran in a familiar direction.
The weather was hot.
There was no sun, but the dry air was stuffy and hot. Even breathing was uncomfortable.
The gra.s.sland was already withered and the bushes were dispirited.
The once moist ground was covered in cracks.
It seemed to be the dry season here.
A black ma.s.s of water buffaloes suddenly appeared in front of him. Water buffaloes were listless and walked over with heavy steps.
They were still tall and strong, but they no longer had their former aura and temper.
When Chu Xiaoye and Catherine appeared in their vision, they only looked at them and continued forward.
There was no anger, no collision, and no change in emotions, as if they were a group of walking corpses.
Chu Xiaoye stopped running and stood at the side with Catherine. He quietly watched as they walked over lifelessly.
The current Chu Xiaoye was huge. His golden mane was lush and his entire body was beautiful golden. He was exceptionally conspicuous on the gra.s.sland.
It was impossible for these violent water buffaloes to not see him, let alone recognize him.
However, they did not have any reaction.
Chu Xiaoye did not dare to think too much. He immediately brought Catherine and continued forward.
The weather was too dry and hot. Their thick manes were unbearable and they could only walk.
Suddenly, they saw a group of lions.
Three lions, seven female lions, and a group of young cubs.
The mental state of these lions was true, and their stomachs were empty. They seemed to have not eaten for a long time.
When they saw the majestic, exceptionally striking, and dazzling Chu Xiaoye, they were stunned and stopped in place.
The three lions were tall and were at least 400 kilograms. They walked in front of the team and still looked imposing and fierce. However, the current Chu Xiaoye looked to be a full circle larger than them. Furthermore, not only did he look beautiful, his ferocity and aura crushed theirs.
Chu Xiaoye"s current body was equivalent to the size of the saber-toothed tiger back then.
The skill of the once black-haired lion in the orc empire not only made his elves taller, it also made his lion body taller and more mighty.
The three lions stopped in place, their eyes filled with fear. Their bodies started to tremble. They wanted to turn around and escape, but they did not dare to.
As for the female lions and young cubs, they were trembling and did not dare to move.
Chu Xiaoye walked close, as if he was looking down at them from above. He stared at the pride with a complicated gaze for a long time before walking over with Catherine.
The three lions almost fell to the ground. They turned around and looked at his huge figure and beautiful golden fur, their eyes filled with respect and envy.
Chu Xiaoye continued forward.
His lush golden mane fluttered in the wind, making his huge body look even taller and more majestic.
Catherine followed behind and never looked away from his body.
In the eyes of this female cub, a king would always be tall. The current king was her true king.
How good would it be if he could stay in the gra.s.sland forever and be a lion forever?
She had also inherited the high priest"s body, but she did not like it.
Only in this way would she feel that the distance between her and the king was only as short as a shadow and so intimate.
The familiar smell of blood came from the air.
Before long, familiar cries came.
"Ow Ow! Ow Ow!"
A group of strong hyenas were attacking a female lion with three young cubs. Beside the female lion was a bitten black antelope.
The female lions bared their fangs and let out fierce roars. They wanted to escape, but they were already surrounded.
The hyenas went forward and s.n.a.t.c.hed the black antelope. Some s.n.a.t.c.hed the food, and some continued to attack the female lion.
The three young cubs hid behind the female lions, trembling.
Suddenly, a spotted hyena rushed up from behind and bit the body of one of the young cubs, dragging it away.
The female lion immediately roared angrily and pounced forward.
The hyena immediately let go and retreated, but the hyenas in the other directions rushed forward and bit the other two young cubs.
There were also hyenas that bit the lionesses from behind.
The female lions were furious and terrified. They roared and rushed towards their children.
However, there were too many hyenas and she could barely take care of herself.
"Ow Ow! Ow Ow!"
Suddenly, the cry of a spotted hyena made the other spotted hyenas immediately stop attacking and become vigilant.
Even the hyenas that were fighting for food immediately turned around and looked forward.
A huge golden lion with a fluttering mane suddenly appeared!
Chu Xiaoye brought Catherine over.
"Ahhh â€""
The hyena queen was terrified. She immediately let out a long cry and turned to run.
The other hyenas did not dare to stay any longer and immediately rushed forward, not even caring about the remaining corpse of the black antelope on the ground.
They were afraid of lions, and were naturally more afraid of this huge and even more ferocious lion!
The hyena queen ran the fastest.
Because she knew in her heart that after the lion arrived, her first target was her!
This lion was too terrifying!
She had lived for so many years, walked so many paths, and seen all sorts of powerful lions. However, this was the first time she had seen such a huge and terrifying lion!
Its fur was as dazzling as the sun and its body was as strong as an elephant. She peed her pants just from looking at it!
The hyenas fled in panic.
As for the female lion, she stood with the three injured cubs, trembling and even more terrified.
The fear in her heart was no less than that of those spotted hyenas.
It was too big! This lion was too big! It only needed a bite to bite her to death!
It was not rare for a lion to kill a lioness.
However, Chu Xiaoye ignored them and only stared at the three young cubs for a few times before leaving with Catherine.
Along the way, he encountered wild dogs, lions, water buffaloes, zebras, and some lone lions and female lions. When they saw him, they avoided him and fled in fear.
At this moment, Chu Xiaoye realized that he was no longer like before. Be it his size or aura, he was much stronger than his former self.
The current him was the true lion king!
The animals on the gra.s.sland had mutated and become taller and stronger. However, in front of him, they were still his younger brother.
He missed Little Curly Tail, Mei Mei, his mother, and his proud father.
He quickened his steps.
They walked from day to night, from night to day.
Three days later, he finally saw the towering tree in the distance that towered into the clouds.
However, the tree had already withered.
