Early in the morning, Male Lion arrived outside Xiao Mo's door to wait. He did not knock, instead quietly waiting for Xiao Mo to wake up naturally.
Today was his turn to babysit. Since he had no experience looking after children, he had specifically gone to ask his wives about it yesterday.
This made him the laughingstock of the other old men in the Consecration Hall, but Male Lion did not care.
With a creak, the door opened. Xiao Mo rubbed her eyes, and when she saw who stood before her, she happily called out.
"Fourth Great-Grandpa, why did you come so early? Are you hungry? Have you eaten?"
Male Lion scratched his head. He had not actually eaten, but to avoid embarrassing himself, he said that he had.
Afterward, Male Lion fussed over Xiao Mo like an old mother, helping her bathe and eat, even thoughtfully washing her clothes.
Seeing this, Xiao Mo's eyes widened as she stared at Male Lion in disbelief.
"Wow, Fourth Great-Grandpa, you look so mighty and imposing. I never thought you could do this kind of thing too! And you washed them so clean!"
Male Lion scratched his head awkwardly. His martial soul was a lion, the king among beasts, which was also why he had so many wives.
Originally, his wives could have handled these things themselves, but Male Lion was an old man who doted on his wives.
Whenever his wives did not want to wash their intimate garments, it was his turn to step in.
Male Lion finished tidying Xiao Mo up, then placed her on his shoulders and headed outside.
"Come on, Fourth Great-Grandpa will take you to see my territory!"
Xiao Mo tilted her head, clearly unfamiliar with the word "territory."
"Fourth Great-Grandpa, what is a territory? Why don't you call it home?"
Male Lion laughed heartily and patiently explained it to Xiao Mo.
"Every adult lion has a territory, and your Fourth Great-Grandpa is no exception. Of course, you can also call it home. Oh, and there is another phrase—do you want to know it?"
Xiao Mo found this very interesting, so she nodded to show that she wanted to know.
"The phrase is, 'a male lion patrols his territory.' It is something Grandpa has to do every day!"
Xiao Mo found it fascinating, so she shouted from Male Lion's shoulders.
"Then Xiao Mo wants to patrol the territory too! Does that mean I'm a lion too?"
The grandfather and granddaughter chatted as they walked, soon arriving at Male Lion's residence.
It was located in the north and south area of Spirit City, a place made up of grasslands and forests.
Many animals and soul beasts lived here, but when they saw Male Lion approaching, they instinctively hid.
Looking at those hiding animals and soul beasts, Male Lion suddenly felt like showing off in front of Xiao Mo.
"Xiao Mo, cover your ears. Grandpa will show you something impressive."
Xiao Mo obediently covered her ears, while Male Lion also used soul power to protect her.
"Eighth Soul Skill! All Beasts Bow Their Heads!"
A massive lion covered in blazing flames appeared behind Male Lion, letting out a furious roar.
The animals and soul beasts that had hidden themselves all ran to within one or two meters of Male Lion, then stopped. They lowered their heads with their front paws stretched forward in submission.
"Wow! Fourth Great-Grandpa is amazing!"
This sight was far too shocking for Xiao Mo. In her eyes, Male Lion was like a king.
But before Male Lion could be happy for even two seconds, something resembling a pot came flying at him.
"I could smell your bad breath from miles away. Aren't you afraid of scaring Xiao Mo? You deserve a beating."
A fierce female voice drew nearer. Xiao Mo only felt the ground vanish beneath her feet before her entire body sank into two soft masses.
"Grandma Tianfu, I can barely breathe! Let me out!"
The newcomer was one of Male Lion's wives, and the leader of all his wives.
Her martial soul was a lion martial soul known as the Wind-Speed Sky Lion, and she was also a level 91 Title Douluo.
Male Lion scratched his head awkwardly. He did not dare do anything to his first wife, or he would get beaten.
Xiao Mo had to struggle with all her strength before she could free herself from Tianfu's softness. It was simply too big and too soft.
The three headed toward Male Lion's residence. At that moment, a young girl walked over and called out to Xiao Mo in Tianfu's arms.
"Little Sister Xiao Mo, why did you only come now? I've been waiting for you forever!"
The girl was dressed wildly, somewhat like an ancient savage, with only several pieces of animal hide covering her private areas. Tianfu was dressed the same way.
When Xiao Mo saw who it was, she happily called out as well.
"Sister Yaoyao!"
Yaoyao took Xiao Mo from Tianfu's arms, then pulled out a matching animal-hide outfit from her Soul Tool.
"I prepared this for you early this morning. Since you've come to our home, you have to follow our rules."
Xiao Mo was quite interested in the outfit, so she went back to the room with Yaoyao to change clothes.
Xiao Mo looked at herself in the mirror, feeling something indescribable. Animal hide covered her private areas.
She wore nothing else, while Yaoyao had tied her hair into two ponytails, making her look adorable yet somewhat wild.
After the two played for a while, Xiao Mo's stomach began to growl. Seeing this, Yaoyao carried Xiao Mo toward the grasslands.
"Come on, Xiao Mo, I'll take you to eat something delicious!"
Xiao Mo rubbed her little belly and nodded, imagining how much she would eat later.
When the two arrived, the sight before them made Xiao Mo's eyes widen.
Male Lion stood bare-chested, his sharply defined muscles on display, with only an animal-hide skirt around his waist.
In front of him was a cow as large as a small house, roasting over a fire.
Five exceptionally beautiful women stood beside Male Lion, and every one of them was dressed just as wildly.
When Male Lion saw Xiao Mo and Yaoyao arrive, he immediately put down what he was doing and said to them.
"Xiao Mo, Yaoyao, wait a little longer. We can eat soon!"
Xiao Mo and Yaoyao obediently sat nearby and replied.
"Okay, Fourth Great-Grandpa!"
"Okay, Grandpa!"
Xiao Mo leaned close to Yaoyao and quietly asked as she looked at the cow on the grill.
"Sister Yaoyao, can we even finish such a huge cow?"
Yaoyao laughed loudly at that, then looked at Xiao Mo seriously.
"You may doubt our family's strength, but you cannot doubt our appetite."
Xiao Mo nodded thoughtfully. Male Lion's flames quickly roasted the cow until it was crisp on the outside and tender within.
The aroma drifted into everyone's nostrils, and Xiao Mo nearly drooled.
Male Lion placed the cow on a carpet. Once everyone was ready, they began to feast.
Seeing that Xiao Mo was still somewhat reserved, Male Lion immediately laughed.
"Xiao Mo, don't be nervous. You have to eat in big mouthfuls for it to feel satisfying. Come on, don't be polite."
Seeing this, Xiao Mo no longer felt nervous. She hugged a huge steak and began gnawing on it.
Xiao Mo ate to her heart's content that meal, experiencing the thrill of devouring meat in huge bites.
At dusk, Demon Subduer and Qian Jun came to pick up Xiao Mo to play at their place, because tomorrow would be their turn to babysit her.
But when they arrived at Male Lion's residence, they saw Xiao Mo wildly chasing a baby wild boar.
In the end, she even rode the little boar, pretending to be a boar knight charging into battle.
Seeing how filthy Xiao Mo was, Demon Subduer's anger exploded. He found Male Lion and immediately began scolding him without another word.
"Fourth Brother, do you even know how to look after a child? Xiao Mo is so cute, yet you turned her into a little savage. Look at how filthy she is!"
Male Lion argued back, believing there was nothing wrong with this. Children needed more exercise.
While the two continued arguing, Qian Jun could not stand it any longer. He chased after Xiao Mo and lifted her off the wild boar.
The little boar was finally relieved. The two tusks it had painstakingly grown had both been pulled out by that little demoness.
What a miserable life for a pig! How was it supposed to survive among the wild boars from now on?
Hearing the little boar squeal, Xiao Mo thought it was saying goodbye to her!
"Little piggy, I'll come play with you again next time!"
Upon hearing that, the little boar took off like it had an A8 engine installed, running at incredible speed.
Not only that, it squealed as it ran, as though venting the pain in its heart.
