Chapter 257: Don’t Let Him Catch You!
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Huanhuan was in so much pain.
She felt her stomach swell. Something was squeezing out of her. Her stomach was about to explode.
Mu Xiang kept encouraging her. “Come on, use more strength. I can already see the baby’s head!”
Huanhuan grabbed the blanket tightly, her entire body drenched in sweat.
A faint smell of blood filled the room.
!!
Xue Ling hugged Huanhuan’s head and wiped her sweat as he said, “Don’t give birth again after this. If you really want to give birth, you can lay a few eggs for fun. Laying eggs is much easier than giving birth. It won’t hurt at all.”
Even though Huanhuan was about to faint from the pain, she couldn’t help but roll her eyes at him. “What do you mean by having a few eggs for fun? That’s your flesh and blood, not toys!”
Xue Ling acted like he was coaxing a child. “Alright, whatever you say.”
After an unknown period of time…
Huanhuan was almost exhausted when she finally heard Mu Xiang shout, “You’ve given birth! It’s two babies!”
Xue Ling leaned over curiously to take a look. They were two naked little things the size of palms and had pink skin.
He looked disgusted. “They’re so ugly.”
Huanhuan replied weakly, “Get lost.”
After Mu Xiang washed the two babies, she carefully placed them in Huanhuan’s arms.
Huanhuan looked carefully at the two little babies she had just given birth to.
They were indeed quite ugly.
As if sensing their mother’s disdain for them, the two tiger babies opened their mouths and cried.
Mu Xiang smiled and said, “The cries are loud. These two children must be very healthy. Congratulations!”
Huanhuan was very tired now, but she was also a little excited.
Finally, the children were born safely.
She said weakly, “Thank you. If you hadn’t helped, I don’t know if I would’ve been able to keep these two safe.”
“You’ve helped me so many times in the past. This small matter is nothing.” Mu Xiang rolled up her sleeves. “After all the trouble just now, you must be hungry. I’ll get you something to eat.”
Huanhuan quickly said, “No need. You’re a guest. How can I let you do such a thing?”
She turned to look at Xue Ling.
Xue Ling had no choice but to stand up. “I’ll go cook. Stay here with Huanhuan.”
Mu Xiang was very surprised. “You can cook? I couldn’t tell.”
Xue Ling smiled and went downstairs.
Huanhuan poked the tiger babies with her fingers. The two babies immediately hugged her fingers and opened their mouths to bite her fingertips.
None of them had teeth yet, so they didn’t do much harm and just rubbed her fingertips.
Huanhuan was feeling ticklish. She wanted to retract her fingers, but the two babies refused to let go.
Helpless, she gave up struggling and let them use her fingers as a teething club.
Mu Xiang said, “They must be hungry. Do you want to feed them some milk?”
Huanhuan lifted her clothes, and the two babies immediately leaned against her. They each took a side and drank.
When the two of them were full, they lay in Huanhuan’s arms and fell asleep.
Huanhuan gently pried open their hind legs to see their gender.
Both of them had t.e.s.t.i.c.l.es, but they didn’t have p.e.n.i.ses.
Mu Xiang was surprised. “Are they both females?”
“Maybe tiger and wolf babies have different physiological structures.” Huanhuan wasn’t sure. “We have to wait until Bai Di comes back and ask him what’s going on.”
“Mmhm.”
At this moment, a loud bang suddenly came from downstairs!
Huanhuan and Mu Xiang were shocked.
Mu Xiang quickly walked out of the room and looked down. She saw that the main door had been knocked open from the outside. The door was on the ground.
Someone seemed to be standing outside the door.
Due to the angle, Mu Xiang could not see what was happening outside the door.
Xue Ling had already walked out of the kitchen and was standing in the living room. He looked at the person outside the door and sneered. “Didn’t you learn your lesson the last time? You’re here to die again.”
An ethereal voice floated through the door. “You can’t kill me.”
Huanhuan sat up and hugged the two babies. She craned her neck to look out. “Mu Xiang, what’s going on downstairs?”
The voice said, “So she’s upstairs.”
Xue Ling immediately said to Mu Xiang upstairs, “Bring her away to hide!”
Before Mu Xiang could respond, she saw a black shadow suddenly rush into the house.
Xue Ling raised his hand and threw a fireball, but unfortunately, the black shadow dodged it.
In the blink of an eye, the black shadow had already rushed to the second floor.
Mu Xiang didn’t even see what the black shadow was before her vision suddenly darkened and she fainted.
The black shadow rushed toward the bedroom.
Sensing danger approaching, the creeper vine suddenly darted out of the green crystal bead. The vine quickly grew long and split into two.
One half of the vine blocked the door, while the other slowly curled up.
The vine was very strong. It steadily sent Huanhuan out the window. The vine kept growing like a long-haired princess’ braid. Only when Huanhuan touched the ground did it slowly let go.
Huanhuan looked back at the two-story building behind her. Through the wall, she could hear the loud sounds of things colliding. Perhaps Xue Ling was fighting someone. The battle was very intense.
She was worried about Xue Ling’s safety.
The system’s voice sounded. “Don’t turn back. Run!”
“But Xue Ling…”
“Xue Ling is very awesome. He definitely won’t die, but it’s not necessarily the same for you and your children. If that guy catches you, you’re doomed!”
For the sake of the children, Huanhuan gritted her teeth and made up her mind to run to the backyard.
When they were building the fortress, they had specially built a secret pa.s.sage just in case.
She pulled back a layer of gra.s.s and a limestone slab, revealing a hole more than a meter wide.
Huanhuan carried the children into the cave, then covered the hole with the slab and gra.s.s.
The secret pa.s.sage was very narrow and could only accommodate one person. It was difficult to turn around.
It was dark in here, and she couldn’t see anything. Huanhuan could only run forward in the dark with the children in her arms.
Several times, she accidentally b.u.mped into a wall.
Fortunately, the lotus helped protect her and the children in her arms.
The secret pa.s.sage led to the back mountain.
After Huanhuan ran out of the secret pa.s.sage, she saw a large bamboo forest.
She leaned against the rock wall with the children in her arms. “I can’t run anymore,” she said, panting. “I feel terrible…”
Unfortunately, she had already given birth.
Even so, her small body was already on the verge of collapse.
The system urged, “Run, don’t let him catch you!”
“Who the h.e.l.l is he? How did he get into the rock mountain?”
“That guy is the demon king. If you’re caught by him, he’ll definitely eat you up!”
Huanhuan was frightened and asked while trembling, “Is he that scary?”
The system’s voice was trembling too. “Trust me, he’s really that scary. Run!”
