Clumsy Beast, Keep Your Paws Off Chapter 749: The Birth of the Little Flying Tiger
Previously on Clumsy Beast, Keep Your Paws Off...
As Su Qinglan cradled her newly evolved, incredibly soft little Flying Tiger, Xiao Yi’s long, furry ears twitched. His golden eyes slowly fluttered open.
Feeling the miraculous surge of divine wind energy humming beneath his skin and especially feeling those shiny new feathery wings resting on his back, the little cub’s confidence instantly shot through the roof!
He was no longer just a cute, chubby ground cub. He was a supreme, terrifying, high-ranking Flying Heavenly Tiger!
Xiao Yi stretched his tiny paws, lifted his little head, and looked over at Duo Duo, who was still peeking at him from behind Shen Mochen’s leg.
Time to teach this terrifying little girl a lesson she’ll never forget!
Wrinkling his tiny pink nose, Xiao Yi pulled back his lips and flashed a fierce, dramatic display of his sharp, glistening new tiger fangs and razor-sharp teeth, letting out his most intimidating, blood-curdling cub roar!
"ROARRR! (FEAR ME, You Unruly Female!)"
The entire courtyard went completely still for a second.
Xiao Yi smirked internally, waiting for the little girl to burst into big, fat tears and run away in absolute terror.
Instead... Duo Duo merely tilted her round head. She didn’t look scared at all. In fact, she looked completely unimpressed!
Duo Duo casually stomped forward, put both of her chubby little hands firmly on her hips, and puffed out her squishy cheeks.
"Pfft! You think those tiny tooths are big?" Duo Duo huffed, waving a dismissive little hand in the air. "I have plenty of those kinds of teeth back in my house! My daddy helped me pull them out!"
Xiao Yi froze mid-snarl, his fluffy ears flopping down in confusion. What?!
"I have a big grey wolf tooth from the monster who tried to steal my melons!" Duo Duo declared proudly, holding her fingers apart to show a massive size.
"And I have three shiny black dragon scales and a huge sharp claw from a giant bear beast that Daddy smacked! I keep them all in my shiny treasure box under my bed!"
Xiao Yi’s jaw literally dropped open. His sharp new fangs were fully exposed, but all the fierce, tiger confidence completely drained out of his tiny body in a single second.
He stared at the innocent-looking, rosy-cheeked toddler in absolute, speechless horror.
She... she pulls teeth out of giant beast lords for fun?! She keeps a trophy box of fangs under her bed?!
Xiao Yi frantically buried his fluffy head straight into Su Qinglan’s neck, wrapping his brand-new feathered wings tightly around himself like a protective shield, trembling from nose to tail.
"Demon! She’s a pure, unholy demon child!" Xiao Yi whimpered desperately in his mother’s arms, internally weeping. "Mommy, save me! The little female collects tiger teeth!"
Seeing her son completely defeated by a four-year-old’s bedtime trophy collection, Su Qinglan couldn’t hold it back anymore and burst into bright, happy laughter, while Shen Mochen helplessly covered his face with his hand, utterly embarrassed by his daughter’s terrifying proudness!
Seeing Xiao Yi practically vibrating with terror behind his newly sprouted feathered wings, the rest of the cubs finally snapped out of their shock.
In a frantic flurry of paws, tails, and high-pitched squeaks, the remaining six cubs scrambled across the grass and completely swarmed their big brother!
"BIG BROTHER! YOU HAVE WINGS!" Xiao Er squealed, his round tiger eyes practically bulging out of his head as he stood on his hind legs, trying to reach up and touch the soft white feathers.
"They look like fluffy clouds!" the wolf twins gasped in sweet unison.
They wiggled their way under Su Qinglan’s arms, their tiny velvet noses twitching furiously as they sniffed the gentle, crackling wind currents humming off Xiao Yi’s new wings.
"Can you fly into the sky now, Big Brother? Can you bring us down a star?"
Ciao Ciao, the nine-tailed fox cub, gracefully leaped onto Su Qinglan’s shoulder and leaned down, his tiny pink tongue poking out as he curiously licked the tip of one shiny, golden-tipped wing feather.
"So pretty... Big Brother looks like a divine beast!"
Even the little lion cub, who usually tried to act super tough and majestic, couldn’t hide his utter fascination.
He marched right up, puffed out his golden chest, and patted Xiao Yi’s paw with his little padded hand. "As expected of our eldest brother! So cool!"
Down on the grass, the tiny white snake, Yue Yue, uncurled from Xuan Long’s shoulder and flicked her pink tongue towards the sky.
Hisss! She raised her tiny head high, her dark eyes shining with immense pride for her big brother.
Surrounded by a mountain of endless, sparkling admiration from all his younger brothers and sisters, Xiao Yi’s intense terror of the "demon toddler" instantly vanished.
His fluffy ears perked straight back up. His chest puffed out so big he looked like a tiny, feathered basketball!
Slowly peeking out from behind his wings, Xiao Yi let out a soft, wildly proud purr that vibrated through his whole body.
He extended one majestic wing, gently draping it over Xiao Er and the wolf twins like a cozy, celestial blanket, making the younger cubs squeal in pure delight.
"Hehe! Of course I’m cool!" Xiao Yi chirped haughtily, completely forgetting he had just been crying in his mother’s neck two seconds ago.
He gave his soft wings a tiny, experimental flap, hovering three inches off Su Qinglan’s lap. "Just wait! Once I practise flying, I’ll carry all of you on my back and take you up to play in the clouds!"
"YAY! BIG BROTHER IS THE BEST!" the cubs cheered in unison, their cute, adoring worship filling the entire sunlit garden with sweet, joyous laughter.
The excitement of the bloodline evolution, the sudden surge of celestial energy, and the wild adrenaline from playing with the cubs finally caught up to the brave little Flying Tiger.
Xiao Yi’s proud little chest slowly deflated. His soft, feathered wings, which had been stretched out so majestically just a moment ago, drooped heavily against Su Qinglan’s arms.
His tiny pink nose gave a long, exhausted twitch, and his big, golden eyes began to flutter shut, completely unable to stay open for another second.
He let out a tiny, irresistible yawn, his brand-new fangs showing one last time before resting his heavy, white-and-gold head snug against Su Qinglan’s collarbone.
"Mommy..." Xiao Yi murmured in a soft, sleepy, slurred squeak, his little paws weakly curling into her robes. "So tired... super sleepy..."
