My Fierce Tigress Wife

Chapter 135: It Died

The Era of Severance, the unusual world passages, the abnormal numbers of alternate worlds, the unique dense spiritual energy…

If it was only one, it might be considered a coincidence. However, for so many coincidences to occur together, then it was definitely not a coincidence anymore.

Something was wrong with the Earth; something was wrong—very wrong with China.

The pride that he had been feeling for a while now was diminished. There were too many secrets in this world.

With his ability now, he was obviously unable to come into contact with those secrets yet.

That meant that his ability now was far too insufficient.

His brows furrowed, and he put aside these thoughts. He continued to look closely at the cat.

Just then, the fluctuation of spiritual energy grew increasingly stronger. Wang Hu could also sense that a very ancient and venerable aura was appearing on that cat.

This was the aura from the bloodline.

Di Baijun’s eyes shone with shock and suspicion.

She slowly said, “This aura is very powerful.”

Wang Hu nodded his head. There was nothing special about his bloodline, and he also did not need that.

However, he could sense the difference in quality between the two of them.

Compared to his, it was a level way higher.

After a few moments, traces of Blood Qi were seen appearing on the adorable body, and the venerable bloodline was suddenly halted. Either it was obstructed by something or there was not enough power, but it came to an end at the last step.

Wang Hu and Di Baijun raised their eyebrows, and they looked at each other.

“The bloodline that she is awakening is too strong, and she tried to awaken during the breakthrough period which is too short. The density of spiritual energy today is still not enough to awaken her bloodline fully.”

Di Baijun was able to pinpoint the problem immediately. This was different from when she or Big Treasure and Little Treasure awakened.

This little kitten tried to take advantage of the short period where her limits were exceeded during the breakthrough to awaken her bloodline.

Meanwhile, for her, Big Treasure, and Little Treasure; the time and opportunity to break through were much greater than this kitten; they were also able to use their soul origin as fuel.

It did not require a breakthrough; rather, it used a more advanced power to slowly transform.

It was not easy to awaken a bloodline of such high caliber.

Di Baijun only hesitated for a moment before taking out spirit stones when suddenly…

“Baijun, take out the spirit stones. Let’s help her,” Wang Hu said with joy.

Di Baijun instinctively looked warily at him. “What?”

“Help her,” Wang Hu said candidly.

“Help her to do what?” Di Baijun narrowed her eyes. The uneasiness increased, making her feel upset.

Wang Hu was thinking about the kitten and did not look at Silly Girl. He said with a smile, “We help her now and make her our subordinate, and then we’ll have a subordinate with a top-class bloodline.”

From the way he saw it, it was a rare opportunity that ascended from the sky.

Even though he could just bring the kitten away by force after she was complete, it was not as ideal as making her a subordinate after doing her a service.

That way, he could be more justified, and the kitten would also submit to him more easily.

It threw Di Baijun off, and she felt a little embarrassed. “Just like that?”

Wang Hu looked quizzically at her and immediately understood.

He did not know whether to laugh or cry. He said, “Silly Girl, even if you wanted to be jealous, you should at least see who the person was.

“That’s just a kitten. She may be a girl, but do you think that every female is as beautiful as you?”

Di Baijun’s face turned beet red. She elbowed the jerk beside her and said proudly with her chin raised, “Who said I was jealous?”

As she spoke, she took out a kilogram of spirit stones and threw it beside the kitten.

A huge amount of spiritual energy was absorbed from the spirit stones by the kitten. The ancient and venerable aura became dense again, appearing to become stronger.

After a minute, Di Baijun threw two more spirit stones. In the next two minutes, she continued to throw two more times.

Finally, the quantity of spiritual energy was enough to cause a change in quality. A milky-white light emanated from the kitten’s body, and waves of a mysterious power shot out from her body in flashes of light. It was colorful and stunning.

However, Wang Hu’s and Di Baijun’s faces immediately turned aghast.

As the mysterious power was shooting out, the kitten’s vitality was also fleeting away quickly, and it appeared to be dying soon.

Wang Hu and Di Baijun immediately came to the kitten’s side. He scanned the kitten with his divine senses but could not identify anything wrong. It appeared to him that the kitten was indeed dying.

He said anxiously, “Baijun, what’s wrong with her?”

He had already thought of her as his strongest subordinate in the future.

“I can’t tell.” Di Baijun was puzzled, and she shook her head. She said with uncertainty, “Could it be that her awakening failed, and she’s suffering from a backlash?”

“Someone can die from a failure to awaken a bloodline?” Wang Hu frowned.

“Some bloodlines may, some may not. I’m quite familiar with felines, but I have never seen or heard anything like this before,” Di Baijun said.

Meanwhile, she reassessed the importance she placed on this Earth and China.

This world was too mysterious.

Meow~!

A soft and light meow was heard. Wang Hu and Di Baijun saw that the kitten had opened her eyes and was looking back at them.

Her big wide eyes were innocent and peaceful.

The peacefulness was unlike that of the playfulness and activeness of a regular cat.

It made Wang Hu feel peaceful himself, and he felt fonder of the kitten.

What a cute kitten.

However, the light and life in the kitten’s eyes were disappearing quickly. He could not bear to see it.

He frowned and picked up the kitten.

Meow~!

The kitten continued to meow softly to express her reluctance and wariness, but it still appeared to be so peaceful.

She also did not resist and fight. It was uncertain if it was because she felt weak or because she did not sense any animosity.

Wang Hu tried to instill divine power into her body to keep her alive.

A few seconds later, he looked at Silly Girl and shook his head.

Di Baijun placed her hands on the soft body and transferred divine power over, but she also shook her head and looked on with heartache.

Wang Hu sighed as he looked at the kitten in his palms. He carried it in one hand and stroked her tiny head with another, causing her body to shake.

Feeling sorry, he said slowly, “You little thing… you have the luck to have a chance to awaken a powerful bloodline, and you also got to meet us.

“But you also did not have the luck to successfully awaken the bloodline… you are dying as a result, and even we can’t save you.”

The kitten got used to the stroking, and her body stopped shaking. Her big eyes even closed, appearing to be enjoying it.

After Wang Hu finished, she opened her tiny mouth.

Meow~!

Wang Hu looked with surprise at her soft meowing—he heard a hint of her trying to comfort him.

He was sure that it was not an illusion. Although the kitten had not truly broken through the Transformation Realm, she was not far away from it and had a high level of sentience.

It made him feel strange even more.

She’s dying herself yet comforting him?

What was there to comfort him about? All he felt was that it’s a pity.

He looked at Silly Girl and saw that she was also surprised. She also grew fonder to the kitten and felt sorrier for her.

“You’re comforting me?” Wang Hu stroked her with more force. “Where is your home? We are fated to meet; let me send you back.”

Meow~!

The kitten meowed and looked at the place she had been laying on. Her voice and movements became weaker by the second, and she was left with her last breath.

Wang Hu wondered again. Why did no one want to keep such a pretty and cute kitten? Were the people in this city blind?

However, it was not the time to be thinking about this now. He looked as the last trace of vitality faded away, and he felt even more unhappy.

What a pity that this potential subordinate who was so obedient, cute, and pretty had died like this.

Wang Hu and Di Baijun looked at each other without saying a word.

A few seconds later, with a soft meow, the big and peaceful eyes that looked at Wang Hu closed, and her last vitality vanished.

Wang Hu sighed and felt uncomfortable.

If it were another animal that died, Wang Hu might not feel as soft-hearted,

However, he already saw this kitten as his strongest subordinate. It was also so cute and pretty.

Wang Hu had to admit that having good looks really made things different.

Beside him, Di Baijun’s brows furrowed as she looked at the kitten pass away. She also felt uncomfortable.

She felt uncomfortable from witnessing the kitten pass away and also felt uncomfortable from the strange hidden feeling from before. It did not go away.

“Baijun, let’s bury her,” Wang Hu said softly.

Di Baijun nodded her head, “Where shall we bury her?”

Wang Hu pondered and said, “She might get eaten if we bury her in the mountains. Why not just bury her here?

“She said this was her home.”

Di Baijun did not refute, and Wang Hu began to dig at the soil with his divine power until a 2-meter-deep pit appeared.

Wang Hu placed the little fellow from his embrace into the pit. He gave her a final look, filled the pit, and compressed it so no one would notice.

“She doesn’t have a name, so we don’t need a tombstone. Let’s go,” Wang Hu looked at Silly Girl and said with some unhappiness.

Di Baijun was also in low spirits. They walked back to the hotel with Wang Hu holding her hand.

Wang Hu’s speed was not fast. As he walked, he said emotionally, “Baijun, don’t you agree that life is so fragile? She had huge potential and looked so obedient and cute, but she passed away so easily.”

Di Baijun seemed to have recalled something, and she said with sadness, “No matter how huge the potential is, before the creature matures, they will still remain weak.

“Even if they matured, there will still be beings that are more powerful.”

Wang Hu looked at her and wanted to comfort her, but in the next moment, he heard Silly Girl say determinedly, “That’s why this Noble One will become the strongest, stronger than anyone can ever be.”

Wang Hu was stunned. He stopped in his tracks and looked seriously at Silly Girl.

Di Baijun took a deep breath, appearing to have made an important decision; and she turned to look at Wang Hu. She said word by word, “If you can’t catch up with me in the future, then I won’t want you anymore, fool.”

Wang Hu looked into her determined and bright eyes. She held her chin high, and her face was flushed with a faint redness.

He felt so in love.

He extended his arms and brought Silly Girl into an embrace. He said softly, “Even if you don’t want me, I want you.”

Di Baijun pursed her lips and muttered unhappily, “I’m being serious.”

“I’m also serious—very, very serious. No matter what, I want you,” Wang Hu said resolutely.

Di Baijun pursed her lips and humphed to herself. Jerk, all you know is to say corny things.

However, her big bright eyes were bunched up in a smile.

It was a pity that no one saw it.

They hugged for a few minutes until Di Baijun came back to her senses and felt that it was enough.

She slapped Wang Hu on the back a few times, feeling embarrassed. She muttered, “Let’s go back quickly.”

“Okay,” Wang Hu smiled as he said, and he walked with Silly Girl back to the hotel.

He also felt much better now than before.

Although it was a pity that the kitten died, Silly Girl seemed to have understood something through the incident—she even said things like ‘I don’t want you anymore’.

This was a huge improvement in their relationship. He felt warm and touched.

He felt at ease; it felt like receiving his hard-earned reward after putting in a lot of effort.

After they were back in the hotel, they did not say much and started cultivating together.

On the second day, Wang Hu and Di Baijun accompanied the two little fellows at the amusement park and had a go at all the rides that they didn’t get to play.

At the last ride, the two little fellows appeared to be disinterested as they looked at the slowly turning merry-go-round, but they still went up.

Wang Hu also pulled Di Baijun to the ride.

He and Di Baijun rode a bigger horse, while the two little fellows rode a smaller one by the side.

As they turned round and round, Di Baijun lay on Wang Hu’s chest, and her ears turned red from sensing that many people were looking at her. She kept muttering under her breath.

“What fun is there? It’s boring, so boring.”

“Hmph, if you dare to pull me again next time, I’ll give you a lesson.”

“Why isn’t it stopping yet? Why does such a boring ride last so long?”

“Jerk, don’t hug me! There are so many people around.”

“Mommy, your face is so red.”

“Nonsense.”

…

Wang Hu hugged Silly Girl by the waist lightly and listened to her rambles patiently.

His gentle gaze made her beautiful face redder and redder.

In the afternoon, after having another meal, Wang Hu finally brought Big Treasure, Little Treasure, and Silly Girl—who was trying to avoid his gaze—back to the Tiger King’s Cave.

Everything was normal, and Old Second reported the details about the visitation from the senior government officials and the situation of the beasts’ missions.

In general, everything went smoothly.

Wang Hu was not concerned, and he went back to cultivating.

There should be a period of peace from now on for the time being.

The most important thing was still to let Silly Girl’s body recuperate.

When the night fell, the Tiger King’s Cave became even quieter.

In the capital, under that bridge…

Suddenly, at a certain point in time, waves after waves of milky-white light appeared from nowhere and gushed into the ground.

Soon after, silhouettes of nine little kittens appeared from the ground. It ran in a circle in the air and then flew back into the soil.

A few seconds later, the soil on the ground shook and shook.
