Along the way, the animals they encountered, whether antelopes or wild boars, would immediately flee upon seeing Jun Qi or sensing his presence.
The main reason is that Jun Qi's aura is too strong and his attack power is too great.
In addition, the two of them avoided some carnivores, mainly large, adult carnivores, who were not only very strong themselves, but also their companions.
Jun Qi: We can't beat them for now.
Xu Qiaoqiao: We can't beat them for now.
Their movements to avoid each other were synchronized. Given the current situation, some special countermeasures are necessary.
After walking around outside for a while, Jun Qi deepened the scent of his own imprint in the vicinity. When he could no longer smell any unfamiliar scents, the sun had unknowingly begun to climb directly overhead, and Xu Qiaoqiao casually ate some of the green grass on the ground.
The grass here is still green now, but thinking about it, I guess it will turn yellowish-brown in a while, and then it will be very dry and make your throat very sore when you eat it.
Xu Qiaoqiao ate it once, and it left her with a deep trauma.
Although their combat power is still not that high, Xu Qiaoqiao and Jun Qi, who have traveled through so many worlds and are experienced in countless battles, don't need to worry too much about survival, as long as they don't encounter enemies that are ridiculously strong.
For example, the infamous hyenas are very aggressive. They live in groups and will bully the few with their numbers. Each hyena group has about eighty members and can sometimes even stand up to a pride of lions.
Moreover, they are also very good runners; if you encounter them, you're in for a tough time.
Time passed slowly. During the day, Jun Qi and Xu Qiaoqiao had not made any progress. As evening approached, they saw a group of antelopes about to gather. Without hesitation, Jun Qi took the initiative and, after selecting a prey, pounced on it when the opportunity arose.
Its entire body pressed down on the antelope, its mouth clamped tightly around its neck, teeth digging into the flesh, blood flowing from the gaps.
Soon, the antelope stopped moving.
Seeing this, Jun Qi didn't linger and called out to Xu Qiaoqiao, telling her to hurry up and follow.
Then the two of them started running towards their den. It wouldn't be safe to eat the antelope outside, as other predators would follow the scent of blood.
Fortunately, they didn't encounter any other carnivores along the way and made it back to their little den safely.
It was already late, the moon was rising, and the stars were shining brightly beside it, adorning the starry sky.
Xu Qiaoqiao and Jun Qi crawled back into their burrows one after the other. After stuffing the dead antelope into the burrow, Jun Qi turned his head and sniffed the air, but did not find any other animals for the time being.
Confirmed, safe.
Relieved, Jun Qi went back to his little nest.
Xu Qiaoqiao felt slightly uncomfortable smelling the blood. She turned her head to look at the antelope, whose eyes were still open, as if it had died with its eyes wide open.
Sigh~
Xu Qiaoqiao sighed, walked over, and stretched out her hoof to cover the antelope's eyelids.
It was genuinely frightening to look at; that eye was fixed on what was in front of it, and it was unclear what it was looking at, but it conveyed a sense of despair.
It's okay, it's nature, it's normal.
The law of the jungle prevails.
After Jun Qi finished eating the antelope, he carried it outside and threw the remains outside his own territory.
It's not safe to stay within the territory.
After doing all that, Jun Qi licked the meat stains from his lips, looked at the stars in the night sky, which were very dazzling, twinkling and shining brightly in the dark night.
There was no wind at night, and the sweltering heat of the day had not dissipated, but still lingered on the land.
When Jun Qi returned to the little nest, Xu Qiaoqiao had already cleaned up all the bloodstains. The two of them were affectionate for a few more times, rubbing against each other and giving each other kisses. Jun Qi hugged Xiao Lu and buried his head contentedly in her neck.
Xu Qiaoqiao wasn't sleepy at all. She looked at Jun Qi's face and touched the hair on his face with her kiss.
Unbeknownst to them, Junjun's mane had grown to cover a much larger area on his face, and even his head was starting to be covered. Judging by the time it takes, by the time he reaches adulthood, he will probably be covered in mane, just like those male lions.
That would look very elegant, wouldn't it?
Xu Qiaoqiao imagined this scene. In fact, a few weeks ago, they also saw several lions. It was not the pride of lions that had tried to recruit Junjun, but another lion cub. Judging from its appearance, it was a few years older than Junjun, but it was not yet an adult and was living alone.
No companions, no relatives.
So he looked a little disheveled, with very flowing mane on his head, each hair dancing wildly without any particular direction, and all sticking up in a spectacular way.
The lion also saw Jun Qi and Xu Qiaoqiao. Although it was puzzled that a deer would follow a lion, it didn't pay much attention to it because it could sense that the other party's strength was in no way inferior to its own.
Junjun, you mustn't grow up to look like that.
If you don't have time, I can help you organize your thoughts.
Xu Qiaoqiao lifted one hoof, as if she were grooming it. The mane was a bit stiff and needed washing, a thought popped into Xu Qiaoqiao's head.
