Baby with Daoist Monarch System

Chapter 550: Chapter 216: Tigress (Part 2)

He walked up to a tree and stroked the bark, suddenly feeling a protrusion.

”Found it!” Xu Binghu said with a smile.

This was a mark left by generations of hunters from the Great Wilderness Border Village, meant to mark the location for those who came after.

The mark was a beast’s claw, signifying that the prey here were all incredibly fierce beasts.

Entering here was undoubtedly like stepping into the gates of hell for the hunters of Great Wilderness Border Village.

But Xu Binghu was now very confident in his strength; for others, it was the gates of hell, but for him, it was an opportunity to make a breakthrough.

Just as he was about to enter, he heard a sound not far away, turned around, and realized it was a villager from Great Wilderness Border Village.

The man also recognized Xu Binghu and guessed his intention to enter the dangerous area from his actions.

”Xu Binghu, are you sure you want to go in?”

Xu Binghu nodded, ”Yes!”

”Seeing the rabbit in your hand proves you’ve had quite a harvest today. There’s no need to take risks anymore, right?”

Xu Binghu continued, ”These rabbits don’t have much meat, not enough to eat!”

As he spoke, he lifted the rabbit to show the hunter the bloody hole.

When the man saw it clearly, he swallowed, ”Xu Binghu, your strength...”

”Luckily, it’s improved a bit!”

”If that’s the case, then I won’t stop you. Be careful, but I want to remind you, you still have a baby at home that needs care. I’ve seen Xu Ran; he’s very cute!”

Xu Binghu smiled, ”It’s fine!”

Saying this, he resolutely walked inside.

The hunter saw his actions and shook his head helplessly.

Actually, Xu Binghu entered the beast area not solely for the prey but mainly for the Beast Milk.

The Beast Milk obtained outside the beast area was no longer sufficient to sustain Xu Ran, and in the beast area, any beast that had little ones were all massive in size. Otherwise, how could they survive and give birth in such a dangerous area?

The Beast Milk here was definitely more abundant than in other places.

Therefore, he entered this perilous area.

Xu Ran is a genius; he won’t let a little Beast Milk hinder his growth.

...

Xu Binghu walked cautiously inside, holding a wooden stick, a blood-stained knife at his waist, and a bow and arrow strapped to his back.

As he continued walking, he caught a whiff of a foul odor not far away and carefully identified it, feeling delighted.

”This is dung!”

Dung is a way large beasts mark their territory.

According to the old hunters from the village, in the beast areas of the Great Mountain, wherever there is dung, there will be beasts.

The presence of dung means this area has an owner. Any other beast entering is seen as invading the territory, resulting in relentless battles.

Xu Binghu crouched down, carefully examining the dung, and sniffed again.

”Hmm! This is tiger dung.”

The elders in the village besides sharing the secret tales of the Great Mountain also taught them how to identify beasts through dung, enabling him to recognize this as tiger territory.

”Tiger, King of Hundred Beasts, immensely fierce, not to be underestimated,” Xu Binghu reminded himself.

”Roar!!”

Suddenly, an unyielding roar echoed throughout the area.

Upon hearing it, Xu Binghu immediately rushed to the source of the sound.

Soon enough, he saw bloodstains on the ground.

Following the bloodstains, he reached the origin of the sound.

Upon closer inspection, ahead, a huge tiger lay on the ground, blood continuously flowing out, soaking the land.

Beside the fallen tiger was another tiger, also bleeding profusely, on the verge of death.

Looking closely, beside the surviving tiger, there were two small tiger cubs, already lying motionless, seemingly no longer breathing from a distance.

”See, these two tigers fought a great battle!”

Xu Binghu quickly pieced together the sequence of events.

Clearly, it was a territorial battle.

The owner of this territory should be the tiger that’s fallen but still barely alive.

The former owner was likely pregnant and ready to give birth, but another tiger found out and sought to kill her during childbirth, intending to become the new master of this area.

However, the original owner was too strong. Even in a weakened state, she fought off the invader, but unfortunately, the two cubs didn’t survive, and the original owner became critically injured.

Understanding this, Xu Binghu was overjoyed.

This was good news for him.

The original owner had just given birth and surely had ample milk, and since the mother tiger hadn’t fallen yet, there was a chance to collect Beast Milk from her.

However, it was extremely dangerous.

After pondering, Xu Binghu made his decision.

”This mother tiger’s Beast Milk must be abundant. If I could collect it all, there won’t be any worries about little Ran’s Beast Milk for the coming period!”

For his son, no matter how dangerous, he had to do it.

Then, he tossed the rabbit aside, carefully and slowly approached the mother tiger.

One step, two steps, three steps...

As the mother tiger’s breathing grew more heavy, Xu Binghu’s heart tightened with anxiety.

After all, this was the King of Hundred Beasts. Even at death’s door, with barely a tenth of its vitality left, it was not something he could recklessly provoke.

Thus, he needed to be extremely cautious to remain unharmed.

Soon, he cautiously reached the side of the mother tiger, seeing her eyes shut tight, Xu Binghu quickly took out the container for Beast Milk and began milking.

Unexpectedly, the process was exceptionally smooth, and soon, he had collected Beast Milk sufficient for the upcoming week’s needs of Xu Ran.
