After the system finished speaking, it did not receive the usual snarky response from its dog host. That silence had felt strangely unsettling.
After fidgeting for a while, it finally asked, “Host? Are you there? What are you doing? Hello?”
After a round of muttering and mumbling, Wu Yue finally snapped back to herself and screamed inside her head, You dog system, what did you just say? I can also cultivate? Is that true? Is it?
“So, you stayed quiet all this time just to digest that news, huh…”
“Once the cultivation system is unlocked, the host, being a pure human, will indeed be able to cultivate Wu power. Besides, your original body’s mother was already a apprentice of a Wu. If you become a Wu one day, you will be easily accepted.”
Wu Yue’s eyes sparkled. “Dog sys—no, dearest system, you are truly the most handsome system in the entire universe.”
“Women’s mouths are nothing but lies.”
“They are back! They are back! The beastman warriors have returned!”
“Yue, look quickly. Have you ever seen so many beastman warriors all at once?”
Qing Cao shouted with excitement and pride.
Wu Yue rolled her eyes and struggled. “Qing Cao, I swear, let go of me. You are grabbing my neck, not my shoulders. I am about to suffocate!”
Startled by Wu Yue’s dying gasp, Qing Cao looked down.
“Sorry, Yue. I forgot you’re so short.”
Wu Yue’s face stiffened. She had almost been strangled, and now she had to endure a fresh round of emotional damage and height discrimination.
There is no love left. You are no longer the puppy I adored.
A deafening roar shook the forest surrounding the Snow Tiger Tribe. The ground beneath Wu Yue’s feet trembled.
From within the dense forest, familiar half-beast figures burst forth. The tribe erupted in deafening cheers.
Even Wu Yue, who only recognized Shi Lin, could not help but be swept up in the excitement. She screamed along with Qing Cao.
Then came the massive white tigers. They were powerful and lean. Each step from their strong limbs left enormous pawprints in the earth.
This was her first time facing such majestic beasts directly. Wu Yue’s heart pounded wildly, well beyond any normal rhythm.
But something was off.
Wait.
She rubbed her eyes. Something about what she was seeing felt utterly absurd.
The last three tigers at the rear. Were they walking awkwardly? Were their legs out of sync?
Wu Yue was not mistaken. At that moment, Yuan Lang, Teng Qian, and Teng Kun could feel the cruel malice this continent had prepared especially for them.
Back in the emperor’s beast garden, they had seen tigers before. Those tigers had walked with grandeur and carried themselves with majestic poise, though their temperaments were as gentle as kittens.
But now that they had become tigers themselves, the truth had hit hard.
What majestic poise? For someone used to walking on two legs, having four suddenly felt like an unsolvable puzzle. Just walking had become their very first hurdle.
“Teng Kun, do I look any better now?”
“Better, my paw. You are still out of sync.”
Teng Qian growled low in frustration. “What is this nonsense? Why is walking so hard? Which leg is supposed to move first?”
As the two big tigers discussed walking techniques, their round ears suddenly twitched upright.
Teng Qian’s eyes sparkled. He looked at his younger brother with shining eyes. “Teng Kun, listen! Was that a woman’s voice?”
Teng Kun’s wide tiger eyes instantly gleamed as he turned toward the direction of the sound. “I heard it too!”
They were coming. They were finally going back to the tribe.
They were coming home.
