Seven Cubs, Seven Fathers, Zero Days Off novel Chapter 40

Chapter 40: Chapter 40: Sanbao Is Missing

But no matter what, he had secretly helped her twice—once with the rockfall, and once just now.

Even if she didn’t get a clear look during the rockfall, she must have seen someone helping her this time, right? And she couldn’t even spare a single grateful expression?

’That damned, heartless woman!!’ The more Mu Silin thought about it, the more annoyed he became.

Looking down at the members of the Ancient Bear Family, nearly all killed by the rockslide, his mood soured even further.

He struck ruthlessly, and a few more fell, dead or injured.

Shen Yue ran all the way back to the cave, while Er Bao was still asking questions nonstop:

"Female Mother, when will Er Bao be that strong?"

"Who was that who just saved us, Female Mother!"

"Female Mother, is the Black Panther Royal Family really that powerful? But back there, after Er Bao announced our name, why weren’t those bad bears scared?"

"I wish Er Bao was really a Little Black Panther from the Black Panther Royal Family. Then Er Bao would definitely be super strong when I grow up!"

Shen Yue listened, speechless. "..."

’I had Er Bao pretend to be a cub of the Black Panther Royal Family just to scare the members of the Ancient Bear Family.’

’After all, in the original owner’s memories, the Ancient Bear Family revered the strong. They were especially respectful and wary of the Black Panther Clan, one of the royal families in the Royal City.’

’That’s why I resorted to such a tactic, hoping to bluff them. Who knew they wouldn’t be swayed at all.’

’But Er Bao’s origins are probably not as simple as I thought. Not only is there someone protecting him from the shadows, but he also looks so much like a pure-blooded member of the Black Panther Royal Family.’

’Furthermore, the original Shen Yue had mated with a bestial male in the Royal City’s Beastification City.’

’Anyone who could enter the Beastification City within the Royal City should be someone who lived in the Royal City.’

’Before, I never considered the possibility of Er Bao’s heritage being linked to the Black Panther Royal Family.’

’After all, the Black Panther Royal Family is one of the few royal families in the Royal City. Even if a royal accidentally underwent beastification, the family should have special methods to control it. Why would they let a noble royal be sent to a place like Beastification City for forced confinement?’

But now, she couldn’t help but suspect that Er Bao’s origins might really be connected to the Black Panther Royal Family!!

Inside the cave, the remaining cubs were, as she feared, all gone.

Shen Yue pushed aside her extraneous thoughts, held Er Bao, and chased after them in a certain direction.

「At this moment—」

Below the hillside where the rockfall had occurred earlier.

Dabao was holding the last unhatched egg, searching everywhere for Sanbao with the other cubs.

"Sanbao! Where are you!"

"Sanbao, come back! Don’t run off!"

"Sanbao, stop hiding! We can’t find you! Come out!"

The little cubs grew more and more anxious as they searched.

Dabao finally set down the egg in his hands, hiding it by the nearby river, and started shouting everywhere.

When their female mother left, she told him that when they played hide-and-seek, he absolutely had to protect his younger brothers.

But now Sanbao was gone!

In a panic, Dabao began scurrying all over the place.

As for Sanbao himself, he was currently standing in the woods, a whole hill away from them.

And he was facing the risk of being kidnapped.

Huang Ziyue looked at the bare-bottomed little tyke in front of him, who was baring his sharp teeth and glaring with a fierce, murderous look. The corner of his mouth couldn’t help but twitch.

This temperament and disposition were exactly like his own—in fact, they might even surpass his.

’He’s my own flesh and blood, after all.’

He said coldly,

"Come with me."

The Little Flood Dragon stared at him fiercely. "No."

"I am your biological Father!"

"No."

"I’ll give you one more chance. Are you coming or not?"

"No."

’Great. He won’t even say a single extra word to me.’

Huang Ziyue’s face darkened.
