A loud BANG startled the cubs, who had just returned to the inner city.
That morning, they had gone to the training grounds with Sunxiao. Qiao Xixi had promised she would come find them soon.
But they waited at the training grounds for a long time, and she never showed up. Worried about Qiao Xixi, Sunxiao brought the cubs to the inner city gate. Once they were safely inside, he left to go find her.
But just as the cubs stepped inside, they heard a muffled thud from upstairs.
Qiao Lie and the others looked upstairs warily.
Today, Sunxiao and Feiyan were both out. Guarding Sangze and his son inside the inner city were two White Tiger Males.
The White Tiger Males would have surely gone to investigate such a loud noise upstairs, but the cubs couldn't hear a sound from them. It was too strange.
