AMSSO-Chapter 29: Want to Touch the Cub

Qin Yiwei glanced at Jiang Yunnuan, and instead of mocking her lack of composure, she felt a sense of shared understanding.

Weren’t they themselves equally dumbfounded by their master’s actions before?

After all, who would dare shout at a Spirit Severing Stage Soul-Devouring Tiger like that?

If they had dared to do so, they would only become corpses under the tiger’s claws!

Even experts with strength equal to the Soul-Devouring Tiger wouldn’t dare to reprimand it like that. The Soul-Devouring Tiger was very proud!

No one knew how their master managed it, but the scene before their eyes indeed happened.

Qin Yiwei patted Jiang Yunnuan on the back and said softly, “I’ll explain everything to you properly later.”

“……”

Jiang Yunnuan’s lips twitched, and she couldn’t recover for a long time.

Too many things had happened today, all beyond her comprehension, and for the moment she was dazed.

Mu Shiyue didn’t realize how much of a shock she’d given her third disciple. After making the Soul-Devouring Tiger quiet down, she patted the little ball in her arms lovingly and whispered gently, “Don’t be afraid, it’s very safe here.”

Soul-Devouring Tiger: “……”

This scene was a bit of an eyesore.

“Ying~”

The little ball sensed Mu Shiyue’s genuine affection, and it relaxed slightly, but still clung tightly to her arm.

It turned its head and glanced at the murderous-looking Soul-Devouring Tiger, then uncontrollably trembled again.

As a fellow spirit beast, it could feel the pressure of a high-level spirit beast even more clearly.

In the eyes of the little Iron-Eating Beast, this Soul-Devouring Tiger was like a towering mountain, extremely terrifying.

Mu Shiyue glared at the Soul-Devouring Tiger, “Don’t scare the child!”

Being scolded, the Soul-Devouring Tiger narrowed its eyes, its claws twitching restlessly.

“If you don’t want to eat, then do as you please,” Mu Shiyue said casually.

Then everyone saw the Soul-Devouring Tiger immediately retracted all of its aura and obediently sat down.

Everyone: “……”

Jiang Yunnuan’s jaw almost dropped again.

Mu Shiyue nodded in satisfaction, “See? Everyone living in harmony, isn’t that nice?”

The Iron-Eating Beast cub noticed the change and looked up at Mu Shiyue in surprise.

This human is amazing! She could actually make that big tiger quiet down!

Wow, even more impressive than its own mother!

Meeting the cub’s worshipful little gaze, Mu Shiyue’s smile instantly bloomed brightly, “Come, I’ll get you something to eat.”

Holding the soft fluffy cub, she looked at her disciples, “Did you bring back everything?”

“B-brought back!” the few of them nodded quickly.

This time they’d really done a big shopping trip.

The storage rings on them were stuffed full.

Although the sect was poor and the storage rings’ space wasn’t large, they still had to have them.

The group hurriedly took out the items they’d bought.

Soon, the ground was piled full of various big and small items, including all kinds of grain, oil, rice, and flour.

Of course, the most eye-catching were those dozens of large iron pots.

“Hou~”

The Soul-Devouring Tiger suddenly charged toward them.

Jiang Yunnuan’s pupils shrank in fright, her hair almost standing on end.

What is it trying to do?!

The others also changed expressions, but none were as terrified as her.

Then, the Soul-Devouring Tiger suddenly stopped.

Everyone looked over and saw a very large basin.

“Wuwu~”

The Soul-Devouring Tiger stretched out its paw to feel it, then let out a cry.

Everyone could hear the satisfaction in its voice.

“Senior, this is your food bowl. May I ask if it is acceptable?” Chu Jingzhuo said earnestly and respectfully.

“Wu~”

The Soul-Devouring Tiger patted the large food bowl and nodded with satisfaction.

This food bowl was so big, even bigger than the previous one and able to hold more, it liked it.

Chu Jingzhuo and the others immediately showed relieved smiles.

Jiang Yunnuan stiffly turned her neck, feeling a little dazed.

So this was the reason they said they needed to buy a food bowl?

This was for the Soul-Devouring Tiger?!

Jiang Yunnuan felt like her brain was about to burn out.

“Hou~”

The Soul-Devouring Tiger patted the big food bowl and called out to Mu Shiyue.

But Mu Shiyue shook her head, “Didn’t you already eat this morning? You can eat tomorrow.”

Rejected, the Soul-Devouring Tiger’s face immediately drooped, vividly showing what it meant to “pull a long face.”

Seeing its almost human-like expression, Jiang Yunnuan once again felt dizzy.

Master actually refused the Soul-Devouring Tiger!

This is the Soul-Devouring Tiger!

One bite could finish them all, that Soul-Devouring Tiger!

After refusing it, Mu Shiyue hugged the little ball and began selecting ingredients.

Fortunately, this time their shopping trip brought back enough things, otherwise it would’ve been difficult to gather all the ingredients!

Although in her first life she never raised a giant panda, she’d learned online how to make the steamed corn buns pandas ate!

Back then she’d only thought that having more skills was never a burden, and never expected she would actually use it now!

The Soul-Devouring Tiger watched Mu Shiyue pick ingredients, but none of them were the ones it’d eaten before, and there was no meat inside. Its resentment was practically overflowing.

However, no matter how resentful, it didn’t dare make more noise and just laid on the ground, looking at her with eyes full of grievance… at the cub in her arms.

She actually refused it for the sake of an Iron-Eating Beast cub!

Being stared at by the big tiger’s eyes, the little ball tightly hugged Mu Shiyue’s arm, refusing to let go.

“Aiyo, don’t be afraid, everyone’s family here, it won’t hurt you.” Mu Shiyue patted it, feeling the soft fluffy fur under her hand, and couldn’t help but show a silly “auntie smile” on her face.

As expected, cubs were so nice to pet!

The eyes of the nearby disciples couldn’t help but turn red with envy.

Want to touch!

They also want to touch it!

Who wouldn’t want to touch a spirit beast cub?!

No matter what spirit beast it was, their cubs were always unimaginably adorable.

But how many people ever had the chance to touch them?

Perhaps before even touching, they would already be crushed into pieces!

Now, with a soft fluffy Iron-Eating Beast cub right in front of them, they were all extremely tempted.

“Master, c-can I touch it just once?” Qin Yiwei couldn’t resist her longing and softly made the request.

“This…”

“Mm! Mm!”

Before Mu Shiyue could answer, the little ball clung tightly to her arm, burying its head into her chest, using its body to express rejection.

Qin Yiwei instantly looked disappointed: “……”

The others who hadn’t yet asked also looked equally disappointed.

What an adorable cub!

Mu Shiyue patted the little rice-ball in her arms and gave them an apologetic smile, “Let’s wait until it’s more familiar first.”

Although disappointed, they knew they shouldn’t force it.

Just being able to be near the cub was already rare enough!

And judging from the situation, the cub would probably be staying in their sect, so sooner or later they would have a chance to touch it!

They couldn’t help but secretly make oaths in their hearts.

Watching these humans’ reactions, the Soul-Devouring Tiger tilted its head.

Then, its gaze shifted toward the egg in front of it.

It seemed that humans really liked cubs…

Mu Shiyue didn’t know what the Soul-Devouring Tiger was thinking. She had the little ball sit on top of her head as she began preparing the ingredients.

The little ball refused to leave her, and if she carried it on her back its claws were too short, and her clothes couldn’t withstand its tugging.

In the end, she could only wear a huge “fluffy hat” on her head while working.

Truly a sweet burden.

But after giving the corn buns to the cub, seeing it eat happily and contentedly, she also showed another silly auntie smile.

The little ball is really healing!

After it finished eating, the cub rolled happily on the ground a few times.

Then, a few storage bags appeared on the ground in front of Mu Shiyue.

Mu Shiyue: “???”
