After eating several juicy fruits, the boy was instantly revitalized. However, instead of hurrying on his way, he continued to rest quietly against a large tree to recover his strength.
If he was confused and uncertain before, now his goal is clear, and the appearance of the Golden Leader has given him enough confidence.
He believed that as long as he kept going and stood in front of the tigers, he would be accepted!
Perhaps having found hope and direction, the boy felt the bright sunlight outside the shade of the tree canopy was radiant and beautiful, and he could even ignore the scorching heat.
The cloudless sky was tinged with yellow by the scorching sun, and the original blue background appeared somewhat faded.

Lin Qian and Yong Qi, carrying a prey in their mouths, huffed and puffed as they ran back to their resting place. Going out hunting in the sweltering heat was just too much of a hassle for the tiger.
However, finding prey is relatively easy. With the sun blazing down, animals tend to hide in the forest, resulting in a significant increase in the number of animals in the forest.
Lin Qian caught a sika deer. This sika deer was plump and strong, and had evolved quite well. Its size was already comparable to that of large deer such as red deer.
The animal that bravely hunted was a roe deer, which was also well-evolved and had grown significantly in size. The animals of today are not the same as those of the past.
Leaving aside the changes in the size of large and medium-sized animals, even small squirrels like chipmunks are almost the size of domestic cats, and the most common rabbits are also growing quite well, with each one weighing at least 50 pounds.
This is not entirely due to the evolution spurred by spiritual energy; it is also thanks to the recent abundance of lush vegetation. Herbivores, after consuming the plants that have been nurtured by the energy of the heavy rain, are like animals on steroids, growing fatter and fatter with each meal, even the lean roe deer are no exception.
However, Lin Qian and the others are not picky eaters; they love to eat both lean and fatty foods. It would be best if the herbivores grew a little longer, as the carnivores would be even happier and more satisfied.
"Ouch!" Stepmother stood up from the stream beside her, looking at the water that was barely above her ankles, her tiger eyes full of disgust.
I lay down and the water only reached my belly; it was practically a wasted soak.
Seeing that Lin Qian and his brother had brought back their prey, their stepmother ignored the stream and went over to skillfully skin and butcher the meat. As they ate, Lin Qian looked at the scorching sun and suddenly had a flash of inspiration.
"Awooo!" The tiger cub gave a command to its personal butler, the chipmunk.
Chipmunk Kaka finished gnawing on the antlers in two bites, then searched his spatial storage and pulled out a bunch of bottles and jars.
By this time, Lin Qian had pushed a relatively flat large rock into the sunlight, and with a sweep of his tiger claws, he had cleaned up the fallen leaves and dust.
As a tiger, Lin Qian is adapting very well now. Despite his efforts to create a sense of ritual by serving meals separately and hosting guests, he still believes that "a little dirt won't hurt you."
There's nothing he can do; the conditions are what they are. In the wild, Lin Qian can only find a water source to wash the meat before eating it. Forget about anything else; it's impossible to cook or do other processes like humans do.
The chipmunk took out a towel it had just scavenged from the supermarket, soaked it in the stream, and then huffed and puffed as it wiped the large rock.
Don't be fooled by the damp towel; the water stains disappeared in less than two minutes after they first appeared.
It's almost noon now, and the sun's temperature has exceeded 50°C. You could practically fry an egg on a rock.
After the chipmunk had cleaned itself twice, Lin Qian picked out a piece of venison from the fattest part. Since it wasn't in the tiger's den, there was no separate meal like when he entertained Jin Diao before. The prey was simply skinned and its internal organs removed.
If you don't want the offal, just throw it in the grass nearby. It's not in your living area, so there's no need to bury it or throw it far away. Once they're gone, a cleaner will come and take care of it.
After getting a basket from the chipmunk, Lin Qian carried a thin slice of venison in his mouth and walked to the stone to wait for "stone-grilled meat".
That's right, Lin Qian wants to try cooked meat!
Having lived a life of raw meat and blood for so long, now that there are seasonings, it's no wonder people are tempted.
Although there is no fire, there is a sun as fierce as fire!
It's no problem to give it a try. If the sun doesn't cook it through, we can just eat it again. After all, raw meat is still edible.
As for filling their stomachs first, that's really not what Lin Qian cares about. The Tiger Cub of today is not the same as the Tiger Cub of the past. They have long since escaped the days of worrying about food and clothing.
Now, they can catch as many prey as they want to eat, and ordinary animals are no match for them and have nowhere to hide.
Courage and Stepmother gathered around as they watched Lin Qian's actions. Ever since Lin Qian had the chipmunk make juice, the whole family knew that Lin Qian also had a "talent" for food.
Seeing Lin Qian's actions, the two tigers immediately understood that Lin Qian was preparing new food.
The sun was still strong, and within minutes the stone was scorching hot, radiating heat. Lin Qian hooked his claws and laid a large piece of venison on it. The meat that touched the stone was instantly cooked, and a faint aroma of meat wafted out.
Lin Qian looked at it and had the chipmunk pour peanut oil on it. It was the first time the little guy had opened this thing, and he was so confused by how hard he tried to open it that he still couldn't get it open.
With no other option, Lin Qian simply lifted the lid off. Now it couldn't be closed again, but it didn't matter; it wouldn't tip over once stored in his spatial storage.
After the peanut oil was poured in, the venison on the stone instantly transformed from dry to oily, absorbing the oil at an extremely fast pace.
The aroma of oil gradually wafted from the stone slab. Following Lin Qian's instructions, the chipmunk added seasonings such as cumin, chili powder, and pepper, and immediately a fragrant aroma filled the air.
