"Roar!" The pale yellow tiger paw slapped the stepmother's head.
The tiger's snow-white fur was instantly ruffled by the mother tiger, and the stepmother covered her head with both paws and howled.
"Roar!" Everything's in chaos! Everything's in chaos! The tiger's beautiful fur is all messed up!
The stepmother covered the fluffy tiger's head, trying to avoid the tiger mother's "violent" head pats, but the tiger mother was in a favorable position, and her two tiger paws took turns attacking, leaving the stepmother nowhere to hide.

The beautiful white tiger glared resentfully at her mother, roaring, "Sister is still so violent!"
Seeing that her younger sister was showing some spirit to resist, the tiger mother gracefully withdrew her paws and lowered her head to lick the white tiger's ruffled head.
"Roar." The tiger mother stroked her sister's fur, then growled, flicked her tail, and turned to leave.
The white tiger suddenly stood up and followed closely with elegant little tiger steps.
The tiger isn't cowardly; it's just that it's had enough sleep and wants to go out for a stroll!
The tiger mom and stepmother went in the opposite direction from the tiger dad. The big cats tacitly split up to explore, confident in their own strength and not worried about encountering danger.
Moreover, spirit beasts had entered this forest before they arrived, so even if there was any danger, they would have left traces.
Even if the danger is well hidden or has not been discovered, the Tiger Mom and her tigress-like stepmothers are fully capable of handling it.
In the bamboo forest, the mother panda woke up upon hearing the tiger's roar. After realizing that the two tigresses had also gone out, the mother panda breathed a sigh of relief.
With her large, dark eyes glancing at her sleeping cub, the mother panda snored softly and took the bamboo shoot from the cub's arms.
The sleeping panda let out a huff, then rolled over and pulled out another bamboo shoot from under itself.
The panda mother paused for a moment, then, seeing her cub sleeping soundly, silently put the bamboo shoot back.
Oh, this little rascal is so carefree, sleeping so soundly even surrounded by tigers...
The tigers haven't shown any hostility yet, but the panda mother won't let her guard down. In her eyes, she and her cub are the tiger pack's food supply. All that talk about her being a subordinate and not eating them is just a lie to the bear!
(Giant panda, scientific name: *Ailuropoda mnoleuca*: a mammal belonging to the order Carnivora, omnivorous, family Ursidae, and the genus *Ailuropoda*.)
Animals don't typically take other animals as their subordinates. The giant panda mother had always lived under human protection and didn't know much about tigers, but her instincts told her that tigers were fierce beasts that she couldn't fight.
So it stays put now only because it can't resist. If it weren't for Lin Qian's mark, the panda mother would have immediately picked up her cub and run away as soon as she realized the tiger family had left.
How can one watch their child sleeping soundly while they themselves are silently worrying and sighing?
Full of worry and helplessness, the giant panda mother rolled around in the bamboo forest in frustration. She casually scratched at the green vines on the bamboo next to her, and a faint, sweet fragrance immediately filled the air.
The mother panda looked at the sweet, nectar-like substance on her paw, licked it skillfully with the tip of her tongue, then rolled over and snapped off a half-meter-long green vine with a "thud."
The mother panda skillfully crushed the green vine, and the sap inside overflowed. She stuck out her tongue and happily licked the sweet sap.
The green vines are only about two fingers wide, a vibrant green that looks very beautiful. The vines are very supple, with few leaves, just a few sparsely spaced at intervals.
The vines are hollow, and the sap inside is very sweet, like nectar.
The giant panda mother and cub unexpectedly discovered this food after arriving in this bamboo forest. They would occasionally tear off a piece and lick it, eating it as a small dessert.
However, only the sap of this green vine is palatable; the vine itself is very tough, difficult to chew, and has a poor texture. Even omnivorous animals like giant pandas do not like to eat green vines.
Despite the panda's seemingly carefree and joyful eating, this green vine is actually a carnivorous plant.
Its mature vines are covered with large, trumpet-shaped flowers with slender, smooth centers that have a sweet, pleasant fragrance – the sweet nectar from the vines.
This sweet fragrance often attracts insects to land on it, and the flower's center hides a narrow, funnel-like opening.
The opening secreted a sticky liquid, unlike the nectar from the vine roots.
Once the insects follow the fragrance and crawl under the flower's core, they will be stuck tightly. This sticky nectar also has a paralyzing effect. Once stuck, the longer they are trapped in the nectar, the less they can move. In the end, they can only struggle helplessly and die in the narrow passage under the flower's core.
In this way, the insects that enter become its source of nutrition.
Of course, vines have other ways of hunting besides this; they can also absorb nutrients from the ground. But with the addition of carnivorous food, these mutated plants grow very quickly, which is why there are large areas of green vines in this bamboo forest.
Although it has methods of preying on insects, it does not mutate much and does not have the ability to actively hunt, so overall it is a relatively safe carnivorous plant.
The green vine wasn't originally like this; it was just an ordinary wild grape vine.
After the spiritual energy revival, this ordinary wild grape vine mutated and evolved after absorbing the spiritual energy, gradually becoming what it is now. Even those familiar with wild grapes probably wouldn't recognize this vine now.
