My Fierce Tigress Wife-Chapter 166 - You can Forget about Getting onto the Bed

Chapter 166: You can Forget about Getting onto the Bed

The other animals didn’t show any reaction when Jun Wen said that. As though he’d just realized something, Wang Liang frowned lightly and secretly observed his eldest brother sitting above.

His eldest brother was expressionless. Then, he discovered that a hint of approval seemed to have flashed across his sister-in-law’s countenance.

At once, realization completely dawned upon him—he had likely said the wrong thing.

Rather, he had expressed the wrong opinion.

His frown deepened, and he reflected upon himself.

After Jun Wen finished, Wang Hu—who had an unobstructed view of all his subordinates—discovered that Old Second was starting to frown and contemplate.

A hint of a smile immediately came over his features. He said, “Yes, that’s right. What China does is China’s own business, while what we do is our own business.

“Although the place where we’re staying belongs to China in name, the ownership is only nominal. Due to spiritual energy reasons, this is unavoidable.

“Remember this—this is our territory. Fighting for territory also concerns only us and has nothing to do with China.

“Our relationship with China is merely one where each of us minds our own business. We just conduct some fair transactions with each other sometimes, that’s all. Apart from that, we’re separate entities.

“Have you kept that in mind, Wang Liang?”

“Yes, my lord. I understand now,” replied Wang Liang at once.

By now, he had completely understood that he had said the wrong thing.

While Big Brother’s words were directed at everyone present, it was even more so directed at him.

He had lost his sense of wariness toward China and unwittingly placed too much trust in them.

On the other side, Jun Wen’s expression remained the same, though he heaved a sigh of relief inwardly. As expected, the Tiger King was still the same Tiger King that had always been unequivocal in important matters.

Informing China in advance even if it’s about something like the tigers fighting for territory?

What’s that supposed to mean?

Are we going to inform China about everything we do in the future, then?

Wang Liang has really been deluded by our relationship with China during the last few years.

They are the biggest obstacle standing in the way of the tigers becoming the overlord of Earth.

While we can work with each other right now, how can we trust them that much?

Wang Hu didn’t say anything else after he saw that Wang Liang had understood his admonition toward the other.

To be honest, this was just a trivial matter that didn’t really matter.

However, the hidden connotation wasn’t something to be underestimated.

Wang Liang’s stance had unwittingly expressed his trust—too much trust—in China.

His vigilance had lessened significantly.

Additionally, Wang Liang’s attitude was actually representative of a lot of the animals’ attitudes.

Take Wang Shan, Jun Yong, and the others for example. None of them had found anything wrong with it.

However, this was exactly the most erroneous aspect of the whole thing.

All of them had gradually lost a lot of their vigilance toward China.

This didn’t spell any good for the tigers.

Although this situation was, strictly speaking, because of Wang Hu—his frequent collaborations with China during the last few years had inadvertently set an example and influenced all the animals under the Tiger King’s Cave’s command; he couldn’t possibly admit to any wrongdoing with regard to that.

There wasn’t going to be any lack of collaborations with China in the future. How was he supposed to admit to any wrongdoing?

Thus, he could only nip it while it was still in the bud and lightly admonish Old Second about it.

He believed that it would be a wake-up call for Wang Liang.

It would likely be enough if he just issued more reminders about it internally in the future.

“Alright, we’ll just inform China about it after we get this done.” Wang Hu made the final decision.

No one stepped forward to object to it, of course.

After that, Wang Hu dismissed them and let them return to their respective duties.

He and Silly Girl were the only ones left in the hall.

He stayed silent and mused quietly. Di Baijun glanced at him. After waiting for a while, she couldn’t help but ask, “What are you thinking about?”

“Nothing much. I’m just wondering whether it’s time for us to scale up our progress after this or not,” replied Wang Hu seriously.

“Scale up our progress? How so?” Di Baijun raised an eyebrow, her interest somewhat piqued.

Wang Hu mused for a moment before he replied, “The human countries’ combat power is probably going to experience a large-scale increase after this. Relatively speaking, the tigers will also experience the same thing.

“There’ll be more and more Transformation Realm animals. Perhaps the dinosaur world won’t be enough to satisfy all of our demands soon.”

The inability to satisfy all of their demands wasn’t referring to an insufficient number of dinosaurs in the dinosaur world.

The dinosaur world was a world of its own. Wang Hu had seen how big it was before. It wasn’t any much smaller than how Earth had been in the past. There were enough dinosaurs in there.

Even if the number of Transformation Realm animals in Tiger King’s Cave were to increase by another ten or a hundred times, it would still be able to supply enough to meet their demand.

However, the dinosaur world had a limitation—the world passage was in a fixed location.

The distance that the hunting team needed to travel and the amount of time they took to hunt dinosaurs was increasing further and further.

The spiritual energy density level inside the dinosaur world was also far lower than Earth’s. Should one spend too much time inside, it would even hold up their cultivation. As a result, they couldn’t build a camp there either.

It wasn’t that bad at the moment. However, once enough time passed and the number of Transformation Realm animals reached a certain point, the amount of effort that hunting would take wouldn’t be worth it anymore.

This was also the reason why the Tiger King’s Cave would definitely need to move—unless Wang Hu could turn the Hu County alternate world into his own backyard, like what he did to the dinosaur world.

However, the Hu County alternate world possessed strong combat power; there were even Fourth Realm cultivators in there. The goal was a little too far.

It was temporarily out of Wang Hu’s considerations.

Di Baijun understood the complications involved the moment she seriously thought about it.

She was clever. It was just that she wasn’t usually interested in such things, so she didn’t want to think about them.

Now that she thought about it seriously, it naturally wasn’t hard for her to understand.

Suddenly, something clicked in her mind, and she let out a somewhat astonished exclamation. “You’re thinking of taking over another world?”

Wang Hu nodded without any hesitation. Evidently, he had already made up his mind and had been thinking about it for quite a long time.

“Which world are you thinking of? Is there a suitable alternate world?” asked Di Baijun curiously.

There weren’t many small worlds out there that suited the tigers as much as the dinosaur world.

Not only were dinosaurs physically large and meaty, but they also didn’t possess any human intelligence. On top of that, their bodies also contained a hint of extremely thin and diluted dragon blood, which was beneficial to the animals.

Small worlds like that were undoubtedly rare. They were already very lucky to have encountered one.

Di Baijun had sighed and marveled over this more than once. That rascal’s luck was really very good. It was so much better than hers.

Apart from small worlds like that, the other suitable worlds would be worlds whose spiritual energy density level had reached the Third Realm.

“Yes, there is.” Wang Hu nodded and glanced at the north.

He slowly said, “There’s one such alternate world to our north. The spiritual energy density level there has reached the eleventh stage of the Third Realm, and it is only one step short of reaching the Fourth Realm. It just so happens to fit our requirements.”

Di Baijun raised an eyebrow. “Peak-level Third Realm? Are we able to do it with our level of combat power?”

“Hah.” Wang Hu chuckled. There was incredibly great confidence in his calm and level voice. “For a world that has always stayed at the Third Realm from start to finish, what level do you think the strongest among them is, Baijun?”

Realization dawned upon Di Baijun—her expectations had been too high.

In a Third Realm-level small world, how many rounds of metamorphosis could one possibly undergo during their breakthrough to the Divine Body Realm?

Five or six rounds would already be considered top-notch ability. This was precisely their world’s limitations in all aspects, rather than an inability to produce real geniuses in their world.

As for Wang Hu’s and her own circumstances, they naturally weren’t the same.

In this case, even if those Third Realm cultivators’ divine bodies were to reach the perfected level, their level of combat power would still only be at the Sixth Floor or the Seventh Floor at the highest. It was impossible for it to go any higher than that.

Given the rascal’s current level of combat power that felt somewhat unfathomably deep even to someone like her, combat power at the Sixth Floor or Seventh Floor didn’t seem like much.

The moment she thought of it that way, she became completely interested in the idea. A look of joy came over her features, and battle spirit surged up in her as she said, “Alright, I’ll personally take part in the battle this time.”

Wang Hu’s smile froze. He looked seriously at Silly Girl, blinked, and said, “Tha—”

Before he could even finish, Di Baijun raised her perfect, exquisite chin and said haughtily, “Don’t bother stopping me. I’m definitely going.”

She had never tried anything like going on a conquest to take over a world before.

Although it was just a Third Realm-level small world, it happened to suit her current level of ability.

The more she thought about it, the happier she became. It was as though the floodgates for the surging battle spirit that she had kept suppressed for a terribly long time had been opened and was close to overflowing. She would just have to have a fight with the rascal for now.

Additionally, she had also made up her mind. She thought: If the rascal disagrees, then I’ll… I’ll…

Her ears flushed a little as she blinked. Determination surfaced in her eyes.

If the rascal disagrees, then I’ll forbid him from getting onto the bed.

“Hmph.”

She snorted lightly and looked over at Wang Hu somewhat threateningly.

Wang Hu wasn’t aware of what Silly Girl was thinking about. However, he didn’t panic either. He frowned a little and said seriously, “Why would I stop you? It’s just that if we do that, then what are we going to do about Big Treasure and Little Treasure?”

He paused for a moment before he went on somewhat worriedly. “If the two of us go to war together, who’s going to protect Big Treasure and Little Treasure?

“Will you be able to rest assured having someone other than the two of us protecting Big Treasure and Little Treasure? I certainly won’t be able to.”

Di Baijun’s raging battle spirit halted for a moment. At once, she wanted to say: ‘You can stay at home and protect Big Treasure and Little Treasure while I go to war.’

Yet, when she thought of her current level of combat power, she couldn’t bring herself to say that.

While she did like battling and was certainly competitive, the two of them had already formed a relationship like their current one after all.

She naturally wouldn’t be unreasonable and force her way just to show off.

With her current level of combat power, she didn’t fear facing a Third Realm Fifth Floor or Third Realm Sixth Floor opponent at all.

However, it would be somewhat hard for her to deal with anyone stronger than that. She wasn’t confident that she could safely kill the other party without suffering any injuries.

Moreover, the opponent was an entire world and not one or two powerhouses.

In addition, the Tiger King’s Cave wasn’t strong enough either. They wouldn’t be able to provide much help.

Her current level of combat power was insufficient to conquer that small world.

As such, she would have to let the rascal do it instead.

However, what about Big Treasure and Little Treasure?

She wouldn’t be able to rest assured letting someone other than the rascal protect Big Treasure and Little Treasure either.

Unable to think of any good solutions, her frown deepened further and further as she pondered over the issue.

She couldn’t help but become annoyed and frustrated, and she glowered fiercely at Wang Hu.

As expected, that rascal is trying to stop me. He doesn’t want me to go there.

She let out another soft snort and said stubbornly, “I don’t care. Think of a solution. I want to go, and that’s that.”

As Wang Hu listened to her fierce and somewhat wheedling words, he nodded and said seriously, “Don’t worry, Baijun. I definitely am not stopping you from going. I want to go on a conquest and take over a big world of our own together with you even more so than you do. Let’s think of a solution together.”

Inwardly, however, he let out a smug laugh.

Solution? What kind of solution can there be?

When the time comes, a Silly Girl like you won’t want to go anymore.

Of course, there was no way he could express these thoughts externally.

To be honest, he didn’t really mind whether Silly Girl went or not. However, like what he had said, who was going to protect Big Treasure and Little Treasure if she were to go?

There were scores of people watching the two of them at the moment. If they were to let someone else look after Big Treasure and Little Treasure, he wouldn’t be able to rest assured even if the chances of anything untoward happening to them were very low.

Di Baijun didn’t quite believe him. Did that rascal really think that way?

She looked at Wang Hu suspiciously. Wang Hu, on the other hand, faced her openly and straightforwardly.

His eyes were filled with sincerity and a hint of contemplation. There wasn’t any bit of guilt in them at all.

Unable to detect anything wrong, Di Baijun made up her mind and decided not to think about it anymore. With a faint blush on her cheeks, she raised her chin and said fiercely, “Think of something. I don’t care. If you can’t think of a solution, then y-you can forget about getting onto the bed.”

Her face turned even redder after she spoke. Then, she immediately got up, turned, and quickly walked away.

Wang Hu stared blankly at her. As he stared after Silly Girl’s perfect and flawless back view as she left in a hurry, he didn’t have the leisure of appreciating that bashfulness of hers that he would never tire of.

Instead, he was rendered somewhat speechless. Silly Girl was being unreasonable.

He hastily went after her and said sternly, “Why don’t we think of a solution together, Baijun?”

“I don’t want to think of one. I don’t care. Just think of something.” Di Baijun’s somewhat shy and embarrassed but unusually firm voice rang out.

More than 10 minutes later…

Wang Hu walked out of the room by himself and came to the hall.

He looked rather frustrated. Silly Girl was too ruthless.

She didn’t even let him stay in the room anymore and insisted that he thought of a solution first.

As expected, women are simply so unreasonable.

Is this even my fault?

Seriously.

Wang Hu sat on the throne in the hall by himself and secretly grumbled resentfully to himself.

Then, he tried to think of solutions.

What was he to do? He was a man after all.

He couldn’t help it!

However, he didn’t come up with any good solution even after thinking for half a day.

He snorted softly and decided not to think about it anymore. He would get Old Second and the cowardly fox to help him think of something the next day instead.

After making up his mind, he started to cultivate.

Wang Hu had already had the intention of taking over another alternate world a long time ago. Otherwise, why would he ask for the entire Gyeongmyeong alternate world?

It was just that the Gyeongmyeong alternate world was too strong, so he couldn’t take any rash actions. He could only put it aside for now and think about it again in the future.

Originally, he had intended to take it slow and wait until a suitable alternate world appeared within his territory.

However, ever since he made that deal with Russia, Wang Hu had set his sights on a target.

Wasn’t that Grade 3A alternate world that sat only dozens of kilometers to the north of his territory exactly his best option?

Even though he was confident in his current abilities, being even stronger would never go wrong. Besides, the chances of success would also increase.

Some 2.5 kilograms’ worth of Spirit Stones appeared on each of his palms. The Eight Tigers Spiritual Energy-Devouring Body-Nurturing Art circulated within his body at full speed, and Wang Hu started to absorb the spiritual energy inside the Spirit Stones.

Wang Hu had certainly never done anything as extravagant as using so many Spirit Stones at one go before.

However, the benefits that would come from taking over a world were worth the extravagant move.

Wang Hu spent the night in the hall.

The next afternoon, Wang Liang and Jun Wen came over together and submitted a territory expansion proposal to Wang Hu.

Wang Hu went through it in detail. He didn’t have any objections. He thought for a moment, and he said, “Jun Wen will be the commander-in-chief this time. Wang Liang, you’ll be the vice-commander. We’ll begin two days later. I want to see this done within a month.”

“Understood.” Wang Liang and Jun Wen answered at the same time.

“Wang Liang is to stay behind. Jun Wen, you can leave first,” said Wang Hu.

“Understood. I’ll excuse myself first then,” said Jun Wen respectfully without any hesitation.

After Jun Wen left, Wang Hu looked at Old Second and said, “Jun Wen’s actions can be quite extreme sometimes, and he doesn’t have much patience for the other animals.

“You’ll have to pay more attention to this. If there are suitable Transformation Realm-level animals from other species, you can take them in as long as they’re willing to submit to us.

“Those that refuse to submit should mainly be driven out. You mustn’t kill too many of them.”

“Understood, Big Brother.” Wang Liang, who understood what he meant, changed his term of address for his eldest brother and replied.

Regarding this part about Jun Wen’s personality, it was something that he could also tell.

He was somewhat of an extremist that was concerned solely about the tigers. Jun Wen would never care about Transformation Realm-level animals from other species.

“Come on, let’s make a trip somewhere.”
