Transmigrating to the Beast World and Raising Cubs with a Black Panther

Mo nodded to them, then gently picked up Bai Ze and headed towards his own cave.

Jue followed behind, not forgetting to carry the flower wreaths for the three of them.

During the few days that Mo and Bai Ze were away, Jue took excellent care of the house, even looking after the wild onions buried by the door.

Mo carried Bai Ze straight into the cave, and Jue ran ahead and opened the cave door first.

However, Mo only glanced at it indifferently before carrying Bai Ze into his cave.

Jue had no choice but to close the door again and go to start a fire.

Mo placed Bai Ze on the bed, reached out and touched his forehead, then covered him tightly with an animal skin blanket.

Jue asked, "Father Beast, is your Uncle sleeping at your place tonight?"

"Yes, he's not feeling well today. I can take care of him tonight."

Jue had never felt this way before, but during these past few days of separation, he missed Bai Ze especially every night, and felt empty inside.

Despite really wanting to sleep with her adoptive father, Jue nodded sensibly after hearing what her beast father said.

Because he needed to collect food, Mo asked Jue to stay home with Bai Ze.

The child sat quietly by the stove, trying to make the fire burn brighter.

Mo quickly returned to the center of the tribe. After the festivities, the most exciting moment arrived—the distribution of food.

This trip was very fruitful. In addition to yellow and red sweet potatoes, we also collected a lot of wild vegetables, fruits and mushrooms.

On the day before their return, they encountered a herd of long-maned beasts and a herd of yoyo beasts, and hunted down quite a few of them.

Everyone lined up to choose their turn, and each person's face was beaming with joy.

However, despite the abundance of fruits and vegetables, people still prioritize meat, since it is more substantial and not easy to hunt themselves. Wild vegetables, on the other hand, can be obtained in some quantities if one is willing to go out and gather them.

When it was Mo's turn, he looked at the food on the ground, and the image of Bai Ze eating a roasted sweet potato involuntarily came to mind.

His cheeks were chubby, and his expression was extremely satisfied.

Then, he didn't take any meat and exchanged it all for yellow sweet potatoes, red sweet potatoes, fruit mushrooms, and wild vegetables.

Everyone found it strange, and even the clan chief specifically asked him, "Are you sure you don't want the meat?"

Mo nodded.

Because garlic and rice were discovered by Bai Ze, and no one else had ever seen them or knew how to eat them, the clan chief gave them all to Mo, saying that Bai Ze should make arrangements for them.

There was too much stuff for Mo to handle by himself, so Yan and the others helped. They made two trips to get everything back to the cave.

Bai Ze was awakened by the noise outside. He sat up in bed and saw Mo walking towards him.

Mo said in a low voice, "It's okay, you can continue sleeping."

Bai Ze asked, "Is the campfire party over?"

"Um."

Having endured the elements for so long, Bai Ze longed for a bath, so he asked Mo if he could take him to a hot spring.

Mo nodded: "Let's go."

Bai Ze quickly got up and only realized he was in Mo's cave when he was packing his change of clothes, but he didn't pay much attention to it.

Jue had just been there yesterday, so she didn't go with them. Mo then transformed into a black panther and carried Bai Ze up the mountain in the night.

The journey up the mountain wasn't lonely; tonight, many sub-orcs and orcs were also going up the mountain to soak in the hot springs.

Fortunately, there are many hot springs halfway up the mountain, of all sizes, scattered among the rocks.

Couples often soak in a hot spring.

But Bai Ze felt a little embarrassed, so he took the lead and walked towards the small hot spring in the corner.

The light in Mo's eyes dimmed slightly, and he stopped at the hot spring next to him.

There was a large rock between the two places.

The moment Bai Ze lay down, the warm spring water washed over his body, and he let out a sigh of comfort.

He half-closed his eyes, leaned against the hot spring, and after a short while, his face turned red from the steam, and his bones felt soft from being soaked.

The fatigue from the journey completely disappeared.

Looking up, you see the moonlight falling from the sky; looking down, you see the white mist and steam rising from the sky.

Bai Ze was burning up, and it was only when Mo asked him if he wanted some bubble fruit that he finally sat up.

He reached out a hand, about to take it, when he heard the sound of rushing water.

Mo stood up naked, walked around the stone blocking the two hot springs, and handed the bubble fruit to Bai Ze.

The moonlight illuminated that lean, shapely naked body, so perfect it was a masterpiece of the Creator.

Bai Ze was stunned.

On Mo's slender fingers were several round bubble fruits.

"Don't you want it?"

Realizing what was happening, Bai Ze's face suddenly turned red. He hurriedly took it and almost buried himself completely in the hot spring.

Only her eyes were visible; she didn't dare look up.

However, this squatting and standing posture seems... even worse.

Mo whispered a reminder: "Be careful not to choke on water."

"Okay..."

Bubbling sounds rose from the surface of the hot spring. Mo curled his lips slightly and calmly returned to his own side.

Bubble fruit becomes very slippery when wet, and can easily slip through your fingers if you're not careful. Bai Ze quickly finished washing, picked up the animal skin to wipe his body, and then went to get dressed.

Mo was a little slow this time. After Bai Ze had finished getting ready, he slowly stood up from the water and walked to the big rock.

Then, quite calmly in front of Bai Ze, he began to slowly and methodically wipe the water stains off his body with animal hide.

He wiped it clean from head to toe, leaving no spot untouched.

Bai Ze immediately turned his head away upon seeing it, but upon hearing the sound of the animal hide sliding against his body, he suddenly felt his face burning.

"Are you dressed?"

"No need to wear it."

"?" Bai Ze turned around, and Mo had already transformed into a black panther.

Jue was still awake, diligently tending the fire, waiting for her father and her beast father to return.

Bai Ze sighed with relief that he could finally get a good night's sleep, so he took Jue's hand and headed into their cave.

Jue followed her father obediently, a slight smile playing on her lips.

Mo stood alone in the center of the cave, staring at the closed door, his feelings particularly complicated.

Suddenly I regretted digging a new cave.

The door wasn't really necessary.

Let's just open up the entire cave.

Bai Ze lay down on the soft and comfortable bed, stretched, and spread his legs into a "big" shape, and couldn't help but sigh, "Home is the best."

Jue climbed onto the bed using both hands and feet and lay down as well.

Bai Ze turned his head and looked at Jue with a smile: "Mo and I missed you so much while we were out here."

The usually reserved child actually took the initiative to get close to his father this time and even quietly hugged his arm.

Bai Ze turned to the side, reached out and pulled Jue into his arms, gently patting his back: "Have you missed us these past few days?"

Perhaps due to her upbringing, Jue is introverted and has a quietness beyond her years, and is not good at expressing her emotions.

So when they're together, Bai Ze always tries his best to "tease" him.

Unexpectedly, this time, Jue nodded directly and said "I want to".

This surprised Bai Ze a little. He patted the back of the child's head and said, "How about I tell you a new story today?"

Despite her anticipation, Jue shook her head, remembering that her father had said her uncle wasn't feeling well that day: "Uncle, you should rest. Traveling is tiring."

But after taking a nap and soaking in the hot spring, Bai Ze was not sleepy at all.

Holding the child, she began to tell her own adapted, localized "fairy tales".

"Once upon a time, there was a tiger tribe. In the tribe lived a very handsome and powerful beastman who longed to have a partner. So he held a bonfire party and invited all the sub-beastmen from the surrounding tribes to come and sing and dance."

The news reached the fox tribe, where a sub-beastman had always liked the beastman, but he needed nice clothes to attend the bonfire party, and he didn't have any.

Jue listened attentively, and it was obvious that she was also starting to worry.

Bai Ze continued:

"Then, the orc ran sadly to the tree with the big red fruit by the door and poured out his sorrow."

Suddenly, a little bird flew in from outside. It could conjure many things and gave the orc a beautiful set of clothes, decorated with pretty stones, beautiful feathers, and many flowers...

The orc, wearing the clothes the little bird had given him, immediately attracted the attention of the orc at the campfire party, and they danced together around the fire...

Seeing that time was up, the orc took off running, with the orc in hot pursuit. Suddenly, the orc's animal-hide shoes fell into the swamp and he couldn't pull them out. With no other option, he could only run barefoot...

Mo lay on the bed next door, wide awake. He had planned to secretly bring Bai Ze over after he fell asleep, but instead, he stared at the dark cave ceiling with his eyes open and listened to the entire story.

Then, I fell asleep.
