Ming Shu got ready to leave, angry. The thunder cat bit her clothes, howling, "Aoo..."
Ming Shu tried to pull her clothes free but failed, so she turned to look at the thunder cat with a sigh. Then she looked at the confused people standing away from her.
"Who took its egg? Just eat... no, give it back." I wonder if the eggs of thunder cats are edible.
"What egg?"
"I don't know. I didn't take it."
"I didn't either. I didn't see any eggs."
"Does the thunder cat lay eggs?"
Once this remark was out the group suddenly fell quiet. They realized that the thunder cat seemed to have kittens instead of laying eggs. What kind of egg was it looking for?
"Okay, I asked, but it's up to them whether or not to give back your egg. Now let go of me." Ming Shu pulled at her clothes again.
The thunder cat purred, reluctant to open its mouth, then turned to the other side, roaring. It probably meant to say to return the egg and avoid dying.
Ming Shu really wanted to tell it that the novel's hero and heroine as well as the fake protagonist were all here. Even if you had a tenth level spirit beast beside you, you wouldn't be able to kill them. This is your fate! Probably your egg has been eaten.
[...] Do you think everyone is like you? Eat, eat, eat, what else do you know?
Although several thunder cats had left for the bear, the remaining ones still outnumbered the humans, thus no one dared to make any rash moves.
"Who took it?" Feng Cheng's fierce gaze swept across the crowd. But most people were dazed, not knowing anything about the egg.
"Lord Seven, this must be Zhi Po's conspiracy. She is trying to find an excuse to kill us. Apparently thunder cats don't lay eggs." Someone boldly put forward his personal opinion.
Feng Cheng glanced at the speaking person.
"I... I didn't say anything wrong." That man was a bit scared to look into the eyes of Feng Cheng, his voice almost unheard.
"Whoever took it, just hand it over quickly, or nobody can leave." One of Feng Cheng's escorts continued, "No matter what kind of egg, just take it out."
Following the escort's sentence, Feng Cheng pointed at a person and said in an assured tone, "Hand it over."
That man flushed. "I... I didn't take it."
Feng Cheng slightly narrowed his eyes. The temperature seemed to have dropped several degrees. The man still tried to quibble, his body trembling. "I really didn't take it."
"Search him."
Finally, the escort found an egg on that person. It was the size of a fist, the shell covered in colorful vertical stripes. No one present knew what animal would lay such an egg. Even Feng Cheng was confused.
The escort held the egg, carefully approaching the thunder cat. He put the egg on the ground, then returned to the crowd.
The thunder cat jumped out swiftly and picked up the egg in its mouth. It stared at the people over there for a while. Then, with a howling sound, all the thunder cats immediately scurried into the surrounding shrubs, disappearing without a trace.
"..." Ungrateful , Ming Shu thought.
...
The bear returned shortly after the thunder cats left. The group scattered everywhere in panic. They didn't get rid of the bear until dawn.
