Mo Junyi pursed his lips, and he knew that this round today wouldn't be easy.

"What? Does your father's request pose quite a dilemma for you?"

Mo Yunchen continued to press, his seemingly smiling yet not smiling eyes fixated on Mo Junyi, as if certain that he was lying.

Mo Junyi's face, however, showed a troubled expression. He looked at Mo Yunchen and then at the group of tigers who had already stood up.

After a moment of silence, Mo Junyi suddenly knelt down. "Father King, I have something to ask for."

Mo Yunchen narrowed his eyes, "Speak."

"Father, since you insist that I prove myself, this matter concerns both your safety and mine. Therefore, I dare to make a request of you."

Mo Yunchen rubbed his fingertips against the edge of the table beside him. His dark eyes stared at Mo Junyi for a moment, then nodded and said, "Tell me first."

“The only way I can prove myself is to give half of these tigers to my father right now. But once they are separated, they will no longer listen to me, and if they accidentally injure someone, my father must not have them executed. If my father agrees, I can start the plan immediately.”

Mo Yunchen saw that he was serious, and after a moment's silence with his eyes narrowed, he agreed, "Alright, Father agrees to you. But if the situation you described doesn't appear, your beloved pets, Father won't leave even one for you. Do you accept these conditions?"

"The father makes the decisions."

Mo Junyi didn't hesitate at all and agreed. Mo Yunchen felt a bit doubtful in his heart, but before he saw it with his own eyes, he naturally wouldn't believe Mo Junyi's words.

Mo Junyi no longer delayed. He walked to the tigers, made a few gestures, and then separated a portion of them. He personally pushed them towards Mo Yunchen.

Mo Yunchen watched him with interest, his eyes twinkling with a hint of amusement.

His eyes clearly spoke volumes of disbelief.

But his smile couldn't last long, for the tigers that Mo Junyi had separated quickly returned to his side. They displayed great dependence, clearly unwilling to leave him.

Kemuji was determined to push them out, so when they returned, Kemuji took action again to push them out. This time, Kemuji wielded a dagger in his hand.

His meaning was clear: if they came back, he would surely attack them.

As expected, when Mo Junyi drew his dagger, the tigers dared not retreat. However, they were not completely passive. They suddenly let out a roar towards the sky, as if expressing their discontent.

Their roar was terrifying, and it caused everyone outside the camp to rush in.

Seeing someone enter, the tigers reacted as if startled, suddenly huddled together and adopted an attacking posture toward the intruder.

They all grinned menacingly, as if ready to fight at any moment.

Mo Yunchen was obviously frightened too. He had already retreated to the side, frowning and saying, “Mo Junyi, what on earth is going on?”

Mo Jun Yi pursed his lips, his little expression very serious. "Reporting to Father King, it's very obvious that they are angry."

"!"

Mò Yún Chén looked at Mò Jūn Yì thoughtfully, "You wouldn't have done something on purpose, would you?"

Mo Junyi's expression remained unchanged, "Your Majesty, please be fair. I dare not. Even if this son wanted to do something, he would never joke about his own life."

Mo Yunchen hadn't figured out the meaning behind Mo Junyi's words when suddenly, one of the tigers charged towards him.

Mo Junyi brandished a dagger against the tiger, but his own martial arts skills were not very profound. He was quickly defeated, and the tiger even bit him on the arm, leaving a bloody wound.

Sniffing the metallic tang of blood, other tigers let out a sudden, earth-shattering roar. The scene was terrifying and awe-inspiring.

Mo Yunchen finally stopped suspecting that Mo Juni was deliberately messing things up. He had seen clearly that these beasts truly wanted Mo Juni's life.

"Someone! Come quickly!"

Mo Yunchen finally spoke anxiously, “Hurry, hurry and save the prince, slaughter all these beasts.”

As soon as Mo Yunchen said this, many soldiers immediately rushed in with their weapons.

Looking at the soldiers' attire, Mo Junyi sneered in his heart. They were clearly prepared beforehand. Today, as long as he didn't agree to give these tigers to his father, these fully armed soldiers would appear and slaughter his beloved pets.

His father king is truly a cunning one!

At this thought, Mo Junyi felt a chill run down his spine. He had never imagined that his most revered father would be like this.

As these soldiers were about to act, Mo Junyi endured the pain and knelt before Mo Yunchen, saying in a calm and composed manner, "Father King, you promised your son earlier."

Mo Yunchen immediately understood what he meant, his face darkened, "Zi Ling, they are so dangerous, the only ones who will get hurt are us."

Mo Jun Yi fixed his gaze on the king, "Father, these creatures transformed like this because I desired to abandon them. As long as I do not harbor that thought, they will not harm me. Please, Father, keep your word and refrain from harming them."

"No!"

Mo Yunchen almost without thinking rejected Mo Junyi's words. His icy gaze fell on the soldiers, "What are you all waiting for? Attack!"

Upon hearing this, even though the soldiers were terrified, they had no choice but to charge forward.

Mo Junyi did not refuse. He watched as they fought each other with the tiger.

It's clear that even though these soldiers were fully armed, the tigers still managed to find weak points. After several rounds, the tigers had a clear advantage.

The soldiers fell in a heap, but Mo Junyi didn't give the tigers a kill order, so they only wounded these soldiers severely, without taking their lives.

Mo Yunchen watched as one soldier after another fell. He clenched his fists, stared for a moment, and then suddenly roared, "Where are the archers?"

"!"

Mo Jun Yi's heart skipped a beat, he hurriedly raised his voice, "Father King, please think this through!"

"Humph!"

Mo Yunchen let out a cold snort, "What you say today is useless, they must die!"

He had even considered sparing these beasts, thinking that they might be useful to him.

Now, not only can they not use them for themselves, but they also show this gang of beasts in a terrifying light.

He had never really thought that these animals' strength could be so powerful.

So many soldiers deployed, and they still can't seriously injure them.

It seems that leaving them behind would be a huge risk, especially since he already knew these beasts were left by An Xuetang for Mo Junyi.

If one day these animals also obey that woman, An Xuetang, it would be a huge threat to him.

He Mo Yunchen would absolutely not allow such threats to continue existing!
