Ugh!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The fleeing lynx, still shaken, let out several terrified cries.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So close—just a hair’s breadth away; in that instant, the lynx had even smelled the breath of death.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Black Egg, having missed its strike, gave half-hearted chase for two steps; seeing the lynx grow farther away, it stopped and slowly returned to patrol around the rabbit pen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The male lynx, sensing Black Egg was no longer pursuing, felt a mix of fear and frustration, then halted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a moment of inner turmoil, it ran again toward Black Egg.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Roar! Roar!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Black Egg had always had a violent temper; this renewed provocation from the lynx stirred its anger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Xiao Yi’s warning voice once again took effect—it wanted to kill this endlessly provoking lynx, yes, but it feared Xiao Yi’s dark expression more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, Xiao Yi, fishing by the lake, heard Black Egg’s distant roars.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had just caught a ten-pound Arctic trout, leaving him quite satisfied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But hearing Black Egg’s roars made him frown slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What’s this stupid bear up to? Just stay put and rest—why the hell is it roaring? When I get back, I’ll have to give it a proper scolding for ruining my fishing mood.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dog Egg, who had just been dozing nearby, now stood up at the sound of the roar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It heard anger in its foolish brother’s roar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But it wasn’t even allowed to go hunting—why would it be this furious? Pathetic!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dog Egg couldn’t guess that Black Egg’s anger didn’t stem from being left behind on the hunt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was because of that damned lynx, repeatedly challenging its authority.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, the male lynx returned to about ten meters from Black Egg, then approached step by step again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But this time it was smarter—it knew Black Egg’s explosive attack range, and now taunted it right at the critical threshold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Black Egg still had its violent temper; even knowing it was difficult to kill the damned lynx from this distance, it was willing to try attacking again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time, its paw still came within centimeters of the lynx’s head—but those few centimeters were enough for the lynx to escape once more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The lynx now seemed to be playing with fire, yet it was undeniably bold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Returning to its starting point again, Black Egg could no longer suppress its killing intent; Xiao Yi’s scolding voice was slowly fading from its mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for the lynx, it once again moved to that dangerous distance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though it sensed danger, the lynx no longer felt the initial unease or fear—it was even excited, like a gambler betting everything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Roar! Roar!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, Black Egg’s reason was completely drowned by rage; after all, it was a violent black bear—even a human would not ignore such provocation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Black Egg chose to strike again—but this time, after missing, it did not return to its original spot. Instead, like yesterday, it began to relentlessly chase the lynx.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time, it would kill that damned lynx.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing the black bear’s furious roars behind it, the lynx felt a surge of joy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It even slowed its pace slightly, afraid that if the black bear lost sight of it, it might turn back toward the rabbit pen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon, the bear and the lynx vanished from the camp.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The instant the two wild giants disappeared, another lynx burst from deep within the forest, racing straight toward the rabbit pen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sss! Sss! Sss!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The rabbits in the pen were now terrified to the extreme; the mere presence of the bear and lynx had nearly suffocated them with fear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only after sensing both the bear’s and lynx’s scents vanish did they slowly calm down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But before they could settle for long, they smelled the lynx’s scent again—and the entire pen erupted into chaos once more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, Xiao Yi, hearing Black Egg’s frequent roars, frowned even deeper.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Could that stupid bear be in trouble?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He lost all interest in fishing and called out to Dog Egg nearby.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Dog Egg, let’s head home and check!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dog Egg had already been impatient; upon hearing Black Egg’s repeated roars, it had felt uneasy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This foolish brother never gave it a moment’s peace!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for Xiao Yi’s livestream, viewers were buzzing—his lakeside location was not far from his own camp.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Walking back quickly would take only twenty minutes, so the audience could clearly hear Black Egg’s roars.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What’s wrong with Black Egg? Is it in heat? Xiao Shen, be careful!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Say that to Xiao Shen’s face and you’d probably get beaten to death—but the mating season for maple black bears is around June–July, and that’s already passed.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Right, it’s definitely not heat. Black Egg’s roar sounds violent, just like when it fought the wolf pack—that night I was watching Xiao Shen’s livestream.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Damn, are the wolves coming back for revenge? Is Black Egg fighting them right now?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Who knows? Xiao Shen, get back quick!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Xiao Shen, hurry home!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Xiao Shen, hurry home—today might be another good show!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>",1190,"2026-06-20T08:19:46.963Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","9bdd9397f863b67fd9570a891e048a4c535fde5d03203463dce9f8c55e2cfeee","starting-from-a-solitary-life-in-the-wilds-chapter-90","starting-from-a-solitary-life-in-the-wilds-chapter-88",366,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fstarting-from-a-solitary-life-in-the-wilds-cover.jpg"]
