Chapter 123: Chapter 123: It Seems Quite Cute

She was still finding it somewhat incredible when...

Again, it slowly bent its front knees, as if bowing its head to her respectfully.

Mu Silin, having regained his footing, found the scene before him difficult to believe.

They say the black-haired ox is the most ancient mount in the Beast World and the most stubborn of the Beast Clan. It would never bow or bend its knee to anyone—unless, of course, it was facing its master...

And yet, this ox was kneeling and bowing to Shen Yue...

It was simply unthinkable.

Just moments ago, it had been so ferocious, on a world-destroying rampage...

Beside them, Lan Cangyue and Ye Lüqi also stared at the ox in shock.

They could hardly believe their eyes.

Shen Yue saw this and understood. The ox was deliberately trying to win her over.

She couldn’t resist raising her hand again, placing it gently and tentatively on its head.

Instantly, a familiar sensation traveled up from her fingertips.

It felt as if she had performed this action hundreds of times before!

In that moment, she could even sense its jubilant mood.

The yak nuzzled her fingers, enjoying the touch, and let out a gentle moo.

Shen Yue’s eyes lit up.

’So, this monster didn’t suddenly appear to harm them?’

And it was clear the beast was very fond of her.

She finally let out a sigh of relief.

’What a false alarm!’

Mu Silin and the others also slowly exhaled in relief.

After such a huge commotion, they had all thought they were going to die.

But who would have thought that on the brink of death, there would be such a twist!

Having narrowly escaped death, they returned to the bamboo house.

Hilariously, they even brought an ox back with them.

All the way back, Mu Silin, Lan Cangyue, and Ye Lüqi felt like they were in a dream.

Especially when they saw the collapsed mountainsides and shattered trees the beast had left in its wake. It truly made them feel like they had just survived a catastrophe.

Shen Yue looked at their bamboo house, which was completely unscathed.

’Thank goodness the house wasn’t destroyed.’

On the way back, the little ones had been terrified of the ox at first. But then they saw it constantly acting playful with Shen Yue, even frolicking and hopping around. The sight was truly comical.

So, while the little ones were still afraid, they weren’t nearly as tense.

Now that they were home, they happily jumped down from the arms of Mu Silin, Lan Cangyue, and Ye Lüqi:

"Yay, our home is still here!"

"That’s great! We can keep living here!"

"Our house wasn’t destroyed, and Er Bao’s toys are still here! Er Bao is so happy."

Shen Yue looked at her unharmed children and the perfectly intact bamboo house, then exchanged a relieved glance with Mu Silin and the others.

This ferocious attack by the giant beast might seem like a joke in hindsight, but moments ago, it had truly terrified them!

That feeling of powerlessness in the face of death still made Shen Yue’s heart pound.

Just then, Wubao hugged Shen Yue’s leg and looked at the ox standing in the courtyard drinking water.

"Female mother, is the big cow really not going to hurt us anymore?"

Liubao also said, "Yeah, female mother, it looks so scary when it gets big!"

Little Qi also timidly hugged her.

"Xi Xi is scared too! Are we really going to let it live with us?"

Shen Yue looked at the yak behind her and thought for a moment.

’I understand now. There’s no driving this ox away; it’s latched onto me.’

’But I have a plan. I don’t know why this ox is so attached to me, or what it even is, or where it popped up from. Still, if it doesn’t mean me any harm and won’t hurt the children, having it live with us might actually be a good thing.’

’Because having this Titan Giant Beast around is like having an invincible cheat code!’

’I was just worrying that my own power wasn’t enough to protect the children, and then this giant beast shows up.’

’It’s like a protective charm sent from the heavens.’

’So, anyone who wants to harm me and the children will have to think twice before they try anything.’

With that, her thoughts shifted. She crouched down and said to the little ones,

"Hmm, your female mother doesn’t think it means any harm. In fact, it seems quite friendly. We can try to get along with it. What if it can become a good friend to you all, one of our family?"
