Chapter 746: Chapter 557: The Rage of the Tiger Lion Beast is Terrifying, All Because of Her!! _3

"Yes," the Chief Guard said, his legs going soft with fear, and he walked as if his legs weren’t obeying his commands.

After resolving the matter, Shen Chuwei followed Ye Haoting out of the Beast Garden.

Ye Anyu had been sent ahead to see the Imperial Doctor by Ye Yuxi; she left with reluctance.

Shen Chuwei had only taken a few steps when heavy footsteps sounded from behind her, each one louder than the last.

She had a bad premonition and turned around to see the tiger-lion beast leisurely following her, its tail waving nonstop behind it, like that of a little dog.

Did it want to follow her?

Ye Haoting also looked back at the tiger-lion beast, which was closely following after little nine, clearly wanting to tag along.

He chuckled, "After so many years, the tiger-lion beast still likes to stick by you."

Shen Chuwei gave a sheepish smile. The tiger-lion beast must have felt too lonely after being cooped up for so long and naturally sought the closeness of someone who could understand it.

Ye Haoting glanced at the tiger-lion beast that had stopped to follow them and asked her, "Shall we let it follow us?"

Shen Chuwei glanced at the tiger-lion beast, "If we don’t let it follow us, I’m afraid it will lift the roof off."

Ye Haoting didn’t think she was exaggerating. Looking at the hole in the beast’s cage, he knew it would probably go mad if they didn’t let it follow.

However, the tiger-lion beast wasn’t this big before. It was easy to follow her around back then, but now that it had grown so large, passing through Moon Cave Gate might pose a problem～

Since the tiger-lion beast wanted to follow, they had no choice but to let it.

From the Beast Garden all the way to Wuyou Palace, passing through the first Moon Cave Gate, Shen Chuwei looked back at the tiger-lion beast to see it slowly moving through with its head lowered and its huge body shrunken, reminiscent of a childhood memory of crawling through dog holes～

Palace maids and eunuchs who saw the tiger-lion beast all walked around it with fearful expressions.

When they reached Wuyou Palace, Shen Chuwei entered and then looked back again at the tiger-lion beast, which was lowering its body and head just as before, and she couldn’t help but laugh.

After the tiger-lion beast entered, it shook its sturdy body, its fur long enough to braid.

Looking at the long fur, Shen Chuwei thought that later, they would have to either shave it off or braid it, one or the other.

When crossing the stone arch bridge, Shen Chuwei looked back at the tiger-lion beast again. The bridge wasn’t particularly wide; three people could walk side by side without issues, but given the tiger-lion beast’s enormous size, the bridge must have seemed very narrow to it, thus it moved somewhat awkwardly.

It felt like watching someone cross a log bridge, wobbling as they came over.

Shen Chuwei didn’t laugh watching this but when the tiger-lion beast lifted its head with a foolish look, she couldn’t help but laugh out loud.

After the tiger-lion beast got off the arch bridge, and seeing how amused Shen Chuwei was, it lowered its head and nuzzled her arm.

In Shen Chuwei’s eyes, it seemed a bit embarrassed and coquettish.

At this moment, the Chief Guard brought over a heap of meat, and it was cooked meat...

The tiger-lion beast was indeed hungry, and it walked over upon seeing the meat.

The Chief Guard and the other two guards were so scared that they hurriedly took several steps back.

The tiger-lion beast paid them no mind and bowed its head to start eating the meat.

Shen Chuwei watched as the tiger-lion beast devoured a large basin of meat, then lay down, mouth open.

As she wondered about its behavior, she saw the guards approach with pails and brushes, trembling as they came, and then started tremblingly to brush the tiger-lion beast’s teeth~

Usually, the tiger-lion beast was kept in a cage, and they were not so afraid when cleaning its teeth.

But now there was nothing to separate them, and if the tiger-lion beast went mad, they might not die but would certainly be maimed.

Shen Chuwei was shocked; the tiger-lion beast not only ate cooked meat but also needed its teeth brushed?

Thinking back to the time in the Beast Garden, where she had been licked several times by the tiger-lion beast and had expressed her disgust each time, it seemed the tiger-lion beast indeed had a thing for cleanliness.

After the guards finished brushing the teeth, they saluted Shen Chuwei and hurried off with their pails.

The tiger-lion beast stood up, wagging its tail as it approached Shen Chuwei. Just having had its teeth brushed, the fur around its mouth was wet, and without any warning, it extended its head towards her.

The gesture was obvious; it wanted her to wipe its mouth~

"You’re so big now yet still act like a baby?"

Though Shen Chuwei said this, she still fetched a towel and began to wipe the water from its mouth.

As she wiped, she examined the tiger-lion beast and noticed that it was somewhat similar to Xuetuan; both were highly intelligent.

She grew curious; could the tiger-lion beast have mistaken her for Feng Wuyou too?

Xuetuan had woken up from a nap and didn’t see Shen Chuwei, so it ran all the way out. Seeing Shen Chuwei, it dashed quickly towards her... mainly because it was hungry and wanted Shen Chuwei to prepare something to eat.

Suddenly catching sight of a large creature, Xuetuan tried to halt abruptly but failed to stop in time, crashing headfirst into the tiger-lion beast’s sturdy foreleg...
