Chapter 436 Motherly Love, It’s Special Only for You

The next moment, the howling of wolves resounded throughout the barracks.

"It, what happened to it?"

Chi Rui was stunned, looking at the scene in disbelief.

The mother wolf roared at the wolf king in the cage, her voice was sharp and fierce, and the hair on her pointed face was squeezed together.

Ji Qingwu covered her ears with her hands. As a mother, she knew what the she-wolf was doing.

What can she do? Of course her son did something bad, so the mother gave him a scolding in a hurry.

The wolf's howl shook the dust off the ceiling of the warehouse, and the dark green in the wolf king's eyes began to become clear, and his eyes returned to a bright gray-green color.

The wolf king crawled on the ground, lowered his head, and gently pressed the tip of his nose against the iron bars.

It stared at the barking female wolf and let out a whimper that sounded almost coquettish.

Chi Rui hadn't figured out the situation yet, so he asked, "What on earth happened..."

Ji Qingwu replied: "It is influencing the child with maternal love."

Zhao Mingyan nodded: "What a great motherly love."

Chi Rui: “…”

The she-wolf growled twice more, cursing even more foully.

The wolf king curled up into a ball, opened his huge mouth that could swallow a person, took a bite of his own tail, and looked at the female wolf aggrievedly.

The mother wolf then left the wolf king's cage with peace of mind and tiptoed towards Ji Qingwu and the others.

Just as Chi Rui was about to bring soldiers to protect the emperor, he saw Emperor Wu Su raise his hand, signaling them not to come near.

The female wolf kept digging the ground with her front paws. After digging a few times, she would look at Ji Qingwu twice and then continue digging.

Ji Qingwu asked in confusion: "What are you doing?"

Zhao Mingyan shook his head, indicating that he didn't understand either.

Ji Qingwu looked at the sand pit dug by the mother wolf on the ground. She turned around to get a better look.

The female wolf's wet nose moved again, and she smelled the scent on her body. She swung her drooping tail and slowly approached Ji Qingwu.

Everyone present could sense that this female wolf was not hostile and was even unusually friendly towards Ji Qingwu.

Ji Qingwu had never come into contact with wolves, but he knew how to get along with wolf puppies.

She tentatively reached out her hand and placed her palm toward the she-wolf, letting it get used to her scent and feel her friendliness.

The she-wolf's black nose pressed against hers, and her warm breath sprayed on her palm with a strange intimacy.

Ji Qingwu felt a small piece of cold and dampness in the palm of her hand. Her body was no longer tense. She tentatively stroked along the tip of the mother wolf's nose to the top of its head.

The mother wolf's eyes were no longer as ferocious as when she looked at the wolf king. Instead, they revealed a hint of longing, as if she had seen her long-lost master.

"It recognizes you." Zhao Mingyan's voice came from behind, with a hint of inquiry.

Ji Qingwu was also pleasantly surprised and said: "I don't know, but it seems to like me very much."

In order to verify Ji Qingwu's words, the female wolf rubbed her palm with her furry head.

The wolf's fur was thick and a little prickly, which made Ji Qingwu feel itchy. She curled her lips and smiled.

But when Zhao Mingyan took a few steps closer, the female wolf immediately pricked up her ears in alertness and let out a low growl from her throat.

Zhao Mingyan raised his eyebrows and said, "It seems that it is only special to you."

He took a few steps back, and the she-wolf turned around and rubbed her body against Ji Qingwu's skirt, as if protecting her.

Ji Qingwu felt that this action was very familiar. She turned her eyes slightly and tried to pat the base of its tail with her hand. The female wolf immediately wagged its tail happily.

The big, fluffy tail hit Ji Qingwu's knees, making a popping sound.

Ji Qingwu took a half step back, squatted down, and held the big wolf head in front of him with both hands.

"It's you?!" She said in surprise, "You're Little Wolf!"

Hearing the name "little wolf", the mother wolf used her front paws to pounce forward excitedly, trying to knock Ji Qingwu down.

Almost at the same time, the mother wolf's body flew into the air, and was about to jump into the arms of happiness, but the man suddenly appeared, grabbed the fur on the back of her neck and lifted her up.

The female wolf struggled and waved her limbs. The wolf king in the cage also became angry and started to ram the iron cage.

Ji Qingwu discussed with him, "Your Majesty, please put it down quickly. It won't do anything to me."

Even though the mother wolf was a female and smaller in size, it still weighed about 80 or 90 kilograms. Zhao Mingyan lifted it in front of him with one hand.

He ordered: "No jumping."

The green wolf's eyes met the man's cold eyes for a moment before looking away, and its tail was clenched tightly.

Seeing the female wolf's frightened reaction, Ji Qingwu hurried forward.

The translator said, "The little wolf understands. It won't pounce on me. It just wants to play with me."

Zhao Mingyan loosened his grip slightly and the mother wolf was put down.

He said coldly: "Stay still."

But the wolf was cunning. It took advantage of Zhao Mingyan's inattention and crawled under Ji Qingwu's skirt, leaving only its fluffy wolf head exposed.

Ji Qingwu bent down and touched its head with amusement.

The she-wolf whimpered, her eyes raised up to look at her, as if accusing the man of violence.

Zhao Mingyan's forehead twitched. If it wasn't a female wolf and Ji Qingwu wasn't protecting it so closely, he would have thrown it out of the tent long ago.

Ji Qingwu sighed: "So you are a wolf......"

Zhao Mingyan asked: "If you didn't know it was a wolf, why did you name it Little Wolf?"

Ji Qingwu thought of the past, his lips curled up, and explained: "At that time, I thought it was a little wolf dog, and I hoped that it would grow up to be as brave as a wolf and not be bullied anymore."

This was when she had just come down from the mountain and before entering the military camp. On the road, she encountered it competing with a wild boar for food, and her body was covered with bruises from the wild boar's fangs.

Wolf cubs are really similar to puppies, with a layer of yellow fur on their bodies that has not faded.

She rescued it and kept it with her for a while. Later, the little wolf ran away by himself, and she was sad for a long time.

It turned out that the little wolf returned to its tribe and gave birth to a wolf king.

Ji Qingwu stroked its smooth silver-gray fur and said, "Girls really change a lot when they grow up. The little wolf is so pretty now."

The she-wolf's tail also stuck out from under her skirt, swaying happily.

This fawning look was totally unlike the blood of a wolf. Zhao Mingyan glanced at it sideways.

Ji Qingwu asked, "Your Majesty, how do you plan to deal with the Wolf King?"

Now that the Wolf King has regained consciousness and will no longer be controlled by the Xijin people, the right thing to do is to let the mother and son return to the snowfield.

Zhao Mingyan said, "Since its mother had done a great service in protecting the young master, I will not bother with it."

Ji Qingwu's eyes suddenly lit up.

Maybe the little wolf smelled her scent on Yuan Heng and knew that the little guy was her child, so it fed him.

Zhao Mingyan ordered: "Carry the cage outside the camp and release it."

Chi Rui lowered his head and said, "Yes."

The cage was lifted by four soldiers, but Ji Qingwu said, "Wait!"

Her eyes fell on the inside of the cage, where there was a small red dot under the wolf king's feet.

Moving...
