Yan Kexing: "If you gave two tigers a live chicken or a live sheep, I bet they could devour them."

Shi Wen immediately waved his hand. "That won't do. We can't let them equate the livestock on the pasture with food. Otherwise, once they get used to eating live animals, we won't be able to bring them down again. They'll always remember that."

Yan Kexing hadn't expected him to say that, and smiled, "Then I'll listen to you."

Their family has a lot of meat to process today.

If you give two tigers, you need to prepare for the other little ones, otherwise they will definitely rebel.

Shi Wen people nowadays have really figured out how to raise little ones, and they're incredibly good at treating everyone equally.

They fed the two tigers a hearty meal, and the next day they took them out again, leaving their scent—mainly feces and urine—all over the pasture.

The little guys and livestock on the ranch weren't used to having so many strange markings.

They were very uneasy on the first day, but because Shi Wen was there, the little guys were able to calm down a bit when they saw him.

By the next day, all the livestock and cubs had gradually gotten used to the tiger's mark and returned to their usual liveliness.

The two tigers were so big that they looked like calves when they walked around the pasture.

Although the cattle on their ranch are also very large, they are herbivores and cannot be compared to tigers, which are carnivores. A tiger can exude a completely different aura just by standing there.

Now the little guys are too scared to go near the tiger, and even the dogs will keep their distance.

The only one who still dares to approach the tiger is their Cong Zai.

Cong Zai walked around the tiger for a while, but didn't seem very interested in it. After circling a few times, he went back to his old spot and went to sleep.

The two tigers still remember Cong Zai. Perhaps the psychological trauma Cong Zai left on them when he was a child was so severe that they still remember him now.

Yan Kexing had a different opinion. "Perhaps because Cong Zai has White Tiger Bloodline, the two tigers would instinctively be afraid of it."

Shi Wen, "That White Tiger also has related bloodlines."

Yan Kexing: "Its Variant Beasts Bloodline, it's quite different."

Shi Wen, "Well, it seems that no matter how much time passes, Cong Zai is still at the top of the food chain on the ranch."

Yan Kexing smiled slightly, "No."

Shi Wen, "No? Then who is it?"

Yan Kexing: "You."

Shi Wen suddenly realized, "I didn't intend to become their boss."

Yan Kexing: "Whether it's true or not, you're the real boss of this ranch. Haven't you noticed how afraid Cong Zai is of you?"

Shi Wen and said, "No, I don't think so. My relationship with Cong Zai is pretty good."

Yan Kexing: "That's because it has already recognized you as its boss, so naturally it won't rebel. Have you forgotten how fawning it was over you when you first met it?"

Shi Wen really reminded me of Cong Zai's past.

Before Cong Zai arrived at their ranch, he had already been neutered by a veterinary hospital because he was invincible in the surrounding streets and had harmed too many female cats.

Later, they went to pick up Cong Zai, and Cong Zai has been very well-behaved ever since.

Shi Wen, "Hasn't Cong Zai always been very affectionate towards people?"

Yan Kexing glanced outside. "How could a Wanderer cat like Cong Zai be particularly friendly? It's just that it's very perceptive. It knows who's strong and who's weak and made its choice immediately."

Shi Wen thought about it carefully and realized it was true, so he couldn't help but laugh, "No wonder it's the best-off Wanderer cat."

Regardless of Cong Zai's reasons for showing affection to them, their relationship is now genuine.

The Shi Wen, I made a point of petting Cong Zai, feeling a bit nostalgic for how it looked when it first arrived at the ranch.

It used to meow so softly and adorably, but now it's much more assertive and has lost that cuteness.

After the two tigers arrived at the ranch, they did have a certain intimidating effect on various herbivorous wild animals.

They moved out of the pasture almost overnight, Shi Wen went out to patrol the next day, it was hard to hear any rustling sounds from under the grassland. However, the mud burrows remained, proving that various wild animals had been there.

Shi Wen achieved his goal and happily rubbed and kneaded the two tigers, even preparing various feasts for them.

The White Tiger was not convinced, and while the two tigers were playing in the grassland outside, it came up and rubbed against Shi Wen's feet, making soft noises beside him, clearly trying to compete with the two tigers for his attention.

Shi Wen with the little guys, Shi Wen could tell what they were thinking at a glance. Seeing this, he couldn't help but pick up the White Tiger, place it on his lap, and rub it.

Shi Wen poked its nose and said, "You have the nerve to come here and act cute? You're supposed to be White Tiger, so how come your aura is completely useless?"

White Tiger: "Meow."

Shi Wen, "Oh, imitating the roars of two tigers? You're actually quite good at it. When are you going to learn their hunting techniques?"

After acting cute for a while, White Tiger stopped acting cute and, upon hearing Shi Wen's words, immediately got up from the ground, turned her butt towards Shi Wen, and walked away angrily.

Shi Wen didn't chase after the White Tiger even after teasing it; instead, he stood there laughing for a while.

The two tigers couldn't stay on their ranch for long; after a week, the two men sent them up the mountain.

As they parted, the two tigers were still reluctant to leave Shi Wen and Yan Kexing.

Shi Wen stroked the male tiger and said, "You two live well in the mountains. We'll come back to see you in a while, and maybe we can find you a mate."

Male Tiger: "Roar."

Shi Wen patted its bottom and said, "Good boy, go back now, see you next time."

The male tiger meowed and ran away.

The two tigers left enough scent on their ranch that few wild animals dared to return, even though they had been gone for some time.

These small to medium-sized wild herbivores are reluctant to stray too far from their pastures, so they burrow nearby to graze.
