Tyson's grandfather was not his biological father, and his biological father was merely one of his mother's mates.
After Tyson's father and his female mother mated, the female mother gave birth to three offspring, meaning that Tyson has three biological brothers in total.
However, Tyson's biological father lost both legs in a fight when Tyson was still a child.
In the beast world, if your legs are broken, you can only let them heal naturally. Because his legs weren't properly treated and became bent, Tyson's father beast lost its ability to fight.
And the moment his father lost his fighting ability, Tyson's mother abandoned him and his son without hesitation.
Males are not valuable in the tribe.
At that time, the three Tyson brothers lived with their father beast in the most remote corner of the Rock Village tribe, where wild animals often roamed. Tyson's father did not enjoy the same treatment as Si Yan, who could receive meat for free.
Thus, through a series of unexpected events, Tyson's two brothers died one after the other from starvation and from being killed by wild animals.
Tyson's father animal was swept away by floodwaters during a rainy season while trying to save Tyson.
Tyson lived a solitary life in the tribe until he grew up and began to show his amazing talent. Only then was he once again accepted into the matriarchal family.
He resented and loathed his mother's family, but in the dangerous and cruel world of beasts, before he grew up, he had no choice but to survive.
“This is none of your business, Father,” Tyson said coldly, his expression devoid of emotion.
Behind Tyson stood the imposing male wolf Hong, the village chief's elder brother and the male of his female mother.
“Si Yan, that female, is not good enough for you,” Lang Hong said, putting pressure on her. “Si Yan’s family is too small and has too few males. Such a family has no strength and will be easily wiped out by wild beasts and defeated by other families.”
Tyson turned around, his masculine aura equally imposing, and sneered, "Is Grandfather worried about me? Or worried that I can no longer supply the family with animal hides?"
Lang Hong frowned: "Tyson!"
Tyson leaped and jumped to a distance: "Father, my affairs are none of your business."
Bei Ji searched everywhere for Xi Qing, and Si Yan also searched for Xi Qing, but they couldn't find her even after a long time.
Si Yan returned to the cave with a glimmer of hope, but inside, there was only Dong Chi lying on the bed recovering from his injuries, and Nan Mo hiding in a corner recovering from his injuries.
Si Yan glanced around a few times, but didn't see Xi Qing. Just as she was about to turn around and leave, she thought about it and went back.
"Dong Chi, do you see Xi Qing?"
The little cub lying on the stone bed ignored her.
Si Yan was silent for a moment, then stepped forward: "Little brat, do you know what's wrong with Xi Qing's face?"
Dong Chi, lying on the bed, tensed up slightly. "You saw Xi Qing's face?"
Si Yan sensed that something was wrong and hummed in response.
Dong Chi remained silent. Si Yan waited for Dong Chi's reply, but it never came.
Finally, Dong Chi became somewhat impatient.
Si Yan, not receiving an answer, decided to waste no more time. She turned and prepared to go out to find Xi Qing.
But just then, Dong Chi sat up, his gaze cold. "Wait."
"Xi Qing's face. It seems you've forgotten."
Si Yan paused in her steps.
Dong Chi suddenly sneered, "You've forgotten? You're lucky. Just because you've forgotten something doesn't mean it never happened. Unfortunately, what's done is done! Just like me, just like Nan Mo, just like Xi Qing. We won't forget!"
The hurt has always been there; they can't be so grateful and forget their pain just because she gave them a few good meals.
Dong Chi covered his head and sneered, "You hurt us once, and you'll hurt us a second time. Have you never thought about what will happen to us, as cold-blooded serpent beastmen, if we fall into the hands of beastmen who hate serpent beastmen?"
Si Yan slowly clenched her fist.
"You hate me?"
“Hate. Probably,” Dong Chi said.
Nanmo, hiding in the corner, wanted to come out but hesitated.
Dong Chidao: "Didn't you want to know what happened to Xi Qing's face?"
Dong Chi suddenly chuckled and raised his head: "It was you, you ruined his face with your own hands."
Si Yan suddenly froze.
Dong Chi said sarcastically, "Of the four of us brothers, the one who used to be most attached to you and most dependent on you was Xi Qing."
“Even if you are crazy, even if you beat and scold us, Xiqing has never given up on you.”
"But that day, that lightning, a huge fire broke out in the forest. You ran into the forest in a frenzy. When Xi Qing found you, a huge piece of firewood fell down behind you. He was startled, afraid that he had turned into a beast."
"He turned into a beast, and you went mad on the spot. You grabbed him and frantically shoved him into the fire... You just kept shoving him into the fire... His face was burned, but even so, he fearfully begged for your help. You pushed him away and told him to die."
Dong Chi's expression was extremely sarcastic. He stared intently at his wicked mother, as if mocking her, or perhaps mocking his own hidden, unspoken expectations.
Dong Chi's words completely shocked Si Yan. She couldn't say a word, and her heart grew colder and colder, as if it were being squeezed and pulled.
"That's just Xi Qing's personality. If you still have feelings for him, don't be angry with him."
Si Yan said bitterly, "How could I be angry with him?"
Only today did Si Yan understand where this stubborn little boy's deep resentment towards her came from.
The original owner of this body was truly unfit to be a mother. No wonder she forced her four children to turn evil and was even abused to death by them.
Si Yan felt that her hard-won relationship with Xi Qing seemed to have plummeted to a freezing point once again.
After leaving the cave, Si Yan kept replaying Dong Chi's words in her mind.
Xi Qing, who used to be most attached to the original body, turned into a snake after being startled. As a result, the crazed original body pressed him into a sea of fire and told him to die.
He saved her, and she told him to die...
No wonder Xi Qing is so concerned about washing her hair and taking a bath; no wonder Xi Qing likes to transform into a snake to scare her; no wonder Xi Qing reacted so strongly after seeing Bei Ji, who had accepted the snake form.
Si Yan sighed and looked up, just in time to see Tyson sitting in the tree above.
Tyson seemed to have something on his mind, sitting there motionless.
"Tyson!" Si Yan called out.
Si Yan's voice brought Tyson back to his senses, and he immediately jumped down from the tree. "Si Yan."
Si Yan asked him, "What are you thinking about?"
Tyson immediately replied, "It's nothing."
After saying that, the male's naturally adorable silver wolf-like features were revealed in the corners of his eyes and brows: "Si Yan, what are you doing?"
"I'm looking for Xiqing, but I can't find it."
Tyson rubbed his nose and laughed, "I have a good nose, I'll help you find it."
