Chapter 72: A Hyena Was Caught

Chapter 72 A Hyena Was Caught

Seeing that it couldn't defeat Chu Ye, the first hyena immediately turned and ran away. Seeing the first hyena flee, the other hyena, no longer daring to fight Chu Ye, also quickly turned and ran away.

How could Chu Ye let those two hyenas let the rabbit he was chasing escape for nothing!

"Hmph, trying to escape? I'll catch you today. Who told you to let my prey go?"

Chu Ye was furious when he saw the two hyenas escape. He immediately gave chase.

For Chu Ye, catching up with a hyena wouldn't be difficult. Chu Ye's running speed is currently extremely fast, surpassing that of many herbivores.

So Chu Ye chased after the two hyenas.

After the two hyenas escaped, they didn't go very far, because they felt that Chu Ye wouldn't chase after them anymore.

But to the hyenas' surprise, Chu Ye caught up with them again after they had only run a dozen meters.

"Damn it, what's wrong with this little lion? It won't leave us alone even after we ran away."

One of the hyenas was thinking, "I don't know why this little lion is so unwilling to let us two hyenas go."

The other hyena was also acting strangely; it even glanced back at Chu Ye. At first, it wasn't sure if Chu Ye was there to chase them.

The hyena wondered if Chu Ye was just passing by and not trying to chase them.

But when Chu Ye ran straight toward the hyena, it sensed danger. So the hyena quickly ran away again.

The other hyena had already run away. This left the first hyena lagging behind. So, this hyena was rather unlucky today. Who told it to think Chu Ye wasn't there to chase it?

Chu Ye immediately chased after the hyena that had fallen behind. The hyena was thinking, "Hmph, even if you want to catch me, it won't be that easy. You can't possibly outrun me. You're just a little lion cub! How could you possibly outrun an adult hyena like us?"

So, at first, when the hyena ran away, he didn't really care, feeling that Chu Ye couldn't possibly catch it.

But the hyena had only run a few dozen meters forward when it saw that Chu Ye had caught up with it.

"Damn, this little lion is pretty fast! It actually caught up with me. I need to run even faster!"

When the hyena saw that Chu Ye was catching up with it quickly, it became nervous and immediately started to run faster.

But how could Chu Ye let this hyena go? So, Chu Ye sped up and ran forward. Chu Ye was very fast, and even though the hyena accelerated, Chu Ye still caught up with it quickly.

"Aww! —"

Chu Ye shouted and ran to the side of the hyena.

The hyena was terrified. After all, it already knew that this lion cub was very powerful, and it was no match for it.

"oh oh!--"

When the hyena saw Chu Ye chasing after it again, it became frightened. So it began to call for help from its companions.

But the other hyena had already run far away, and it wouldn't come to rescue this one. After all, the other hyena had also experienced Chu Ye's power, so why would it return to continue fighting him?

Now, the hyena was dumbfounded. Without the help of its companions, it was no match for Chu Ye.

Chu Ye displayed superhuman fighting prowess when facing this adult hyena.

Although this hyena was unwilling to be killed by Chu Ye, how could Chu Ye let it go?

Regardless of the circumstances, lions and hyenas are sworn enemies. Given the chance, a lion will absolutely not hesitate to kill a hyena.

Chu Ye was in the same boat; when it faced this hyena, it immediately felt murderous intent. This hyena had blocked its path and let the rabbit it wanted to catch escape.

If it weren't for those two hyenas interfering, Chu Ye would definitely have been able to catch that rabbit. He wouldn't need to chase after this one hyena now.

But the rabbit had already escaped, and Chu Ye couldn't catch it anymore. So, Chu Ye could only take his anger out on the hyena.

Although the hyena knew how powerful Chu Ye was, it still tried to escape. But Chu Ye wouldn't give it another chance.

Seeing that it could not escape, the hyena had no choice but to put up a final stand. Although it knew it was no match for Chu Ye, it had no other option but to fight back.

So Chu Ye started fighting with the hyena.

Although this hyena had a certain advantage due to its relatively large size, it bit Chu Ye several times.

However, the hyena's attacks were completely ineffective against Chu Ye. Even though the hyena bit Chu Ye several times, he wasn't injured at all.

Chu Ye let the hyena bite him a few times, then he seized the opportunity and bit the hyena's neck.

Although the hyena struggled fiercely, it was to no avail, because Chu Ye was also very strong.

Although Chu Ye was only half the size of this hyena, its strength was definitely much greater than that of the hyena.

Although this hyena was an adult, it was not as strong as Chu Ye, the little lion.

Chu Ye bit down on the hyena's neck. The hyena struggled, but to no avail.

Chu Ye's sharp teeth had already pierced into the hyena's neck.

The hyena felt a sharp pain in its neck, followed by severe difficulty breathing. Its trachea was quickly severed by Chu Ye's bite.

Once Chu Ye severed the hyena's trachea, the hyena was doomed. It struggled on the ground for a few moments, uttered some low growls, and then quickly lay still.

Chu Ye only let go after seeing that the hyena had stopped moving.

That's how Chu Ye killed that hyena.

This hyena never imagined that, despite facing so many dangers throughout its life, it would always escape unscathed. Even when a male lion tried to bite it, it cleverly escaped.

But this time, it would die in the mouth of a lion cub. All of this was hard for the hyena to accept.

Even after being killed by Chu Ye, the hyena's eyes remained open. It seemed that even in death, it couldn't understand how it could have been defeated by a small lion.

After killing the hyena, Chu Ye began to eat it on the spot. After all, it needed to eat a lot of meat to grow quickly.

It's the dry season now, and only lion cubs that can regularly eat meat can continue to grow. Those that can't get meat probably won't survive the long dry season.

This hyena is an adult male, weighing about 50 or 60 kilograms. It's impossible for Chu Ye to finish eating this adult hyena by himself.

So Chu Ye only ate some thigh meat. Then he dragged the hyena's carcass back to his pride.

When Chu Ye dragged a hyena back to the pride, all the lion cubs became excited.

The two lionesses and the male lion are not home; they have probably gone out hunting together again.

The lion cubs were starving! When they saw Chu Ye had brought back another hyena, they were all overjoyed and immediately rushed over to fight over it.

Chu Ye was already full, so it didn't compete with the lion cubs for the hyena. The other lion cubs were hungry, and as soon as they saw the hyena, they all started fighting over it.

Chu Ye watched as the other lion cubs fought over the hyena's carcass. He lay to one side and felt sorry for the cubs. They didn't know how to hunt on their own and had to rely on the two lionesses to feed them.

The cubs only get to eat when the lionesses catch prey. If the two lionesses fail to catch any prey, the cubs will go hungry.

"These lion cubs are really lucky. They have such a capable cub like me to feed them. If I weren't always able to hunt prey, these cubs would be going hungry all the time."

Chu Ye felt that he was becoming increasingly important to this pride. If it weren't for the prey he could regularly hunt, these lion cubs would likely struggle to grow up healthy.

"It's such a pity! Despite my abilities, I never receive praise from the lionesses or the lions. They seem oblivious to how important I am to the pride, and they have no idea how many good deeds I've done for it."

As Chu Ye watched the other lion cubs scrambling for food, he lay to one side lost in thought. He felt that without him, Chu Ye, several lion cubs might starve to death in the pride.

The reason this pride is still able to keep eight cubs is all thanks to Chu Ye. If it weren't for Chu Ye's bravery, resourcefulness, and ability to frequently hunt prey, several of the cubs might have starved to death these days.

For the past few days, neither the lionesses nor the lion have managed to hunt anything. If they can't catch any prey, the cubs will go hungry.

Fortunately, Chu Ye was still able to hunt prey, allowing the lion cubs to have some fresh meat to eat when their mothers were unable to hunt.

Because of this, the lion cubs of the Jike pride can still grow up healthily. They only need to endure two more months to survive the dry season and welcome the rainy season.
