You Plan To Kill Me With Meng? - Chapter 54.4 - Prairie Lions Alliance (09)

The riverbank was too conspicuous, so Qiao Qixi moved the zebra aside with a lot of effort. The little cubs didn’t need his call; they were already tearing into it, devouring it with wild abandon. The scene was quite unsophisticated.

The sumptuous feast attracted other covetous creatures—two stray male lions. Lions with prides do not wander around aimlessly, and it is exactly these stray male lions who are the most dangerous.

Over the past half year, Qiao Qixi’s mane has grown out to a fair extent, looking almost mature. His combat strength is also far superior to other lions of his age.

Normally, choosing to avoid is just because they don’t want to take risks, but this zebra is the only prey they’ve caught in the past two days, so they absolutely cannot give it up without a fight.

It’s not like there aren’t examples of a lion challenging five others on the grassland, let alone he is just challenging two.

Moreover, it’s also time to open the cubs’ eyes, let them know that living on this grassland, one can’t just rely on avoiding; sometimes, when you ought to act, you have to take action.

The photographers were astonished as they saw Qiao Qixi roaring and standing between the little lions and the stray lions, his whole body filled with a fighting spirit.

The King of Kings finally got angry. With blood still on his mouth, he actually took the initiative to approach the two stray lions, already winning in terms of momentum.

Because he is fearless.

The two stray lions seemed to hesitate for a moment, a bit intimidated, but in the end, they couldn’t resist the temptation of food and decided to engage in this battle.

“Aoww————”

The three young male lions quickly became entangled in a fierce struggle, and the one-against-two situation looked extremely intense.

Under the intensifying clash of fangs and roars, fur and dust rolled in the air, and the surrounding area quickly filled with the smell of blood.

But these were not the wounds on Qiao Qixi’s body. The King of Grasslands, who was always thought to be too afraid to fight with the male lions, actually had quite skilled fighting experience, and even in a one-against-two situation, he did not fall behind.

This time, he refreshed everyone’s impression of him; it could be said to be unexpected.

In the end, the two stray male lions fled with their tails between their legs. If they hadn’t run, they might have died under this male lion’s fangs.

After the video of Alexander’s one-against-two challenge was posted online, it instantly cleared his name as the ‘King of the Grasslands’ who had been wronged.

:Alexander is not the ‘King of the Grasslands’; he is the ‘Lion King.’ Before, he was just worried about his cubs not growing up yet, so he had to hide and crouch down, acting like a lion. But now that the cubs have grown up, his days of enduring humiliation and bearing burdens are coming to an end.

: Alexander!

: That’s right, the days of enduring humiliation and bearing burdens are almost over. Every time I see them being robbed of food and having to leave in shame, I am just waiting for the day when the cubs grow up.

: What do you mean by leaving in shame? Even if Alexander leaves, he does so in a very graceful and majestic way, alright? He always knew in advance when danger was approaching, and every time he retreats, it’s done beautifully and orderly.

: He might even take a piece of meat with him.

: If I were a little lion, I would also be willing to live with Alexander. Whether or not there’s meat to eat doesn’t matter; the main thing is that he is interesting!

Having driven away the invaders, defended the food, and received the attention of the little ones, Qiao Qixi, however, walked back calmly, even without roaring at the two defeated losers who had fled.

What’s the point of showing off? To bring more danger?

One must know that on this grassland, some bears are naturally restless and might specifically seek him out for a fight because of his powerful roar.

So eating the meat quietly is good enough.

This zebra gave the little broken lion pride a hearty meal, enough to last them at least three days.

The little lions ate until their bellies were full, giving up only when they couldn’t eat anymore. Their sense of territory and strong possessiveness began to gradually show at their this age.

Even after they were full, they didn’t leave the prey, but instead stayed in place like demonstrators, leisurely washing their faces and paws.

Innocence and cuteness are no longer suitable to describe them; their lean bodies and mature expressions make it seem more fitting to call them a reserve army of predators.

With the calm after the battle, the night is approaching, bringing a slight coolness to the land that has been scorched all day.

The dried-up river pond has only a small patch of water left. If it doesn’t rain soon, many animals won’t be able to survive.

In some places, the riverbed has turned into a mass of mud. The hippos linger there, rolling around like mud monkeys, with only their eyes still visible.

The crocodiles have no choice but to become land-dwelling animals, because they can’t compete with others for the mud.

The lion pride led by Qiao Qixi is doing fine; he always quickly finds the next water source before one dries up.

Maintaining the rhythm of eating once and starving for two days, about a month later, the first rain since the dry season finally poured down.

Recently, unable to bathe due to the conditions, the lions, already not very clean, stroll in the rain, letting the raindrops fall on them.

Miantuan, already a bit gray, had its fur washed by the rain and finally returned to its original whiteness, although this isn’t necessarily a good thing.

But who told them they have a parent who cares about cleanliness? Whoever is dirty, they’ll be looked down upon.

The little lions can only obediently act like drowned chickens, letting the rain wash them a bit cleaner.

Recently, they didn’t feel like being coquettish, and it was simply because they were dirty. Being coquettish wouldn’t have worked anyway, right? If Qiao Qixi were willing to lick them, that would count as him losing.

Of course, no one would lick them. Rolling around in the mud all day, anyone who wants to lick them can go ahead.

Thus, the heavy rainfall, overnight, nourished the desiccated riverbeds. It can be anticipated that, before long, this land will once again return to its thriving state.

The tough dry season has finally passed. Looking back, it doesn’t seem to have been that difficult, which is the biggest sentiment shared by the photographers and their followers.

Alexander and the five young male lions of the Norman family have finally grown up successfully.
