The Strongest Lion

Chapter 20 The Cunning Hyena Queen

Chapter Twenty: The Cunning Hyena Queen

Regardless of what Chu Ye thought, Nira didn't rush to run away with his men just because he saw Jike.

After seeing his men flee, Nira bravely summoned them all back.

Although Nira's hyenas dared not challenge the lion and only wanted to escape, they could not disobey Nira's summons. So they had no choice but to return to the battlefield.

Even Jike felt very strange and didn't understand what was going on. With his majestic presence as the Lion King, how come he couldn't scare away these shameless dogs?

Chu Ye stood atop the tree, watching all of this with utter bewilderment.

He didn't understand what was going on, why the lion father couldn't scare away these scoundrels.

Hyenas are known to be terrified of male lions. Whether it's an ordinary hyena or a queen hyena, they will all flee at the sight of a male lion. It's not just a matter of two or three hyenas not daring to challenge a male lion; even a dozen or so hyenas generally wouldn't dare to fight one.

However, Chu Ye stared at the lion closely and discovered a problem.

"Damn, it turns out the Lion King's father was injured."

Chu Ye noticed some wounds on the male lion Jike's body and figured it might have been in a fight with the invading lion while he was patrolling the border. After all, the stray lions had been quite restless lately, constantly trying to challenge the lion king.

Just now, while Jike was patrolling his territory, he happened to see a stray male lion enter his territory. As soon as Jike saw it, he rushed over, and the two male lions immediately started fighting.

Fortunately, the stray male lion was not as strong as Jike, but since it dared to challenge the lion king, it still had some strength.

In the end, although Zeke defeated the stray lion and drove it out of its territory, it was also injured.

Although Zeke has returned victorious, he is now wounded.

Furthermore, both of its wives are now injured.

It appears that although the three adult lions of the Jike pride have reunited, they are all injured.

The Hyena Queen also noticed this.

It probably thought that since all three lions were injured, their fighting ability must not be very good.

The hyena queen is very experienced in combat.

It knew that other hyenas would run away in fear at the sight of a male lion because they simply didn't notice the wounds on the lion's body.

Although the lion was not seriously injured, it revealed a piece of information.

This male lion must have just fought with other male lions; it must be exhausted, and its fighting ability will be reduced. In that case, why should these dozen or so hyenas be afraid of it?

Although all three adult lions of this pride are now present, they have all been in a fight and are injured.

Nira was indeed cunning; she had already seen the male lion's wounds and knew that his fighting ability was definitely not as good as usual. Furthermore, both lionesses were also injured.

All of this gave Nira hope, making her feel that she didn't need to run away. Although the lion had returned, it was still necessary to fight again.

So, Nila commanded the dozen or so hyenas to surround Jik and the two lionesses.

This made Zeke not only very angry, but also a little worried.

Jike had originally thought that as soon as he returned and appeared in front of these hyenas, they would all run away in terror.

Then the battle ended, and he had saved his two wives.

But things didn't go as it expected. The cunning Nira had clearly seen the wounds on Zeke's body and, instead of running away, faced the lion head-on.

Jike had no choice. Although he had just fought another male lion and was very tired, he didn't want to fight this pack of hyenas again.

But it ran into the cunning and shrewd Nila, and he was out of luck. Today, Nila was going to make an exception and have another showdown with one male lion and two lionesses.

Seeing that he couldn't scare the pack of hyenas away, Jik had no choice but to continue fighting.

Chu Ye, perched atop a large tree, was astonished to see that the dozen or so hyenas had surrounded Jike and the two lionesses.

He didn't understand what was wrong with these hyenas, that they dared to challenge a male lion.

Although he saw that Zeke was injured, it didn't seem serious and wouldn't affect its fighting ability at all. So why weren't these hyenas afraid of it?

Chu Ye couldn't understand it, and there was nothing he could do, so he could only stand on the big tree and continue watching the battle unfold before him.

This is also a battle that will determine the fate of this pride. If the male lions participate and still cannot defeat this pack of hyenas, then the pride will be doomed, and the nine lion cubs will also perish.

"Jike absolutely cannot lose!" Chu Ye was really worried for Jike.

Jike and the two lionesses also sensed the seriousness of the situation.

Because they knew that if they lost this battle, their pride would be doomed, and so would the ten lion cubs.

Faced with such a dangerous situation, Jike, Lisa, and Aisha had no way out but to fight with their backs against the wall in order to defeat the pack of hyenas and save their pride.

So, the three adult lions and more than a dozen hyenas went to war once again.

Nila joined the battle from the beginning, determined to defeat Jik, Lisa, and Aisha, and completely destroy the pride. Then, they could eat the ten cubs of the pride.

These are ten lion cubs, all three or four months old, chubby and plump, making Nila's mouth water just looking at them.

But when the three lions realized they had no way out and decided to fight the dozen or so hyenas to the death, the hyenas couldn't take it anymore.

Especially Zeke, who is, after all, a lion king. Not only is he physically strong, but he also has a great deal of fighting experience. He has even fought against hyena packs many times.

It's true that Jike was injured; it had just fought with another stray male lion.

However, Zeke wasn't seriously injured, nor was he particularly exhausted. The stray lion wasn't very strong; Zeke easily defeated it in just a few rounds.

Although Jike was a bit tired, it had eaten quite a bit of meat these past two days, so its physical condition was excellent. Even after its fierce battle with the stray male lion, it still had the strength to deal with these hyenas.

Thus, the outcome of this battle was beyond Nira's expectations, and it suddenly felt that it had miscalculated.

These three frenzied lions had unleashed astonishing energy. Jike quickly bit into the spine of a male hyena, snapping it in two with a snap.
