It didn't take Lin Fan long to figure out what the situation was since there weren't that many possibilities.
The little kitten was most likely a tiger cub and the giant tiger was most likely its mother. However, something must have attacked her, which was why the little tiger cub was wandering the forest alone.
Based on how hungry the little kitten was when he fed it, this mother tiger should have died quite a while ago…
The little tiger cub saw that Lin Fan was just standing there, so it came over to pull Lin Fan by the pant leg to where its mother's corpse was. Then when Lin Fan was standing right beside the tiger, it looked at Lin Fan with pleading eyes as it nudged its mother.
Lin Fan's heart filled with pain when he saw this, but there was nothing that he could do since the mother tiger was already dead.
The problem was how was he going to explain this to this little tiger cub…
But after thinking about it, he suddenly realized something.
Lin Fan opened up the portal to the Pet Storage Space before reaching in to grab something. When his hand came out again, he was holding Hayase by the neck while pulling him out of the Pet Storage Space.
The first thing that Hayase did after being dragged out was glare right at Lin Fan and say, "What's the big idea? I was in the middle of…"
But before he could finish what he was saying, Hayase had finally noticed where he was. His voice drifted off as his eyes fell onto the little tiger cub that was looking up at it with pleading eyes and the large tiger covered in blood lying on the ground.
After being surprised, he turned back to Lin Fan to ask, "What is going on here?"
Lin Fan quickly summarized the situation for him.
Then Hayase immediately asked, "So what do you want me to do about this? It's not like I can bring its mother back to life."
Lin Fan shook his head and said, "Just explain to it that its mother is dead."
Hayase couldn't help looking at Lin Fan with a strange look as he said, "You're a demon, aren't you?"
Lin Fan calmly looked at him and said, "Then you want to just leave this tiger cub here?"

Lin Fan said, "I know that you have a soft side."
Hayase gave a snort when he heard this, but he still landed beside the little tiger cub. Then he walked over to the mother tiger's corpse and put a hand on it, making it seem like he was inspecting the mother tiger's corpse.
After doing that for a bit, he turned back to the little tiger cub who was looking at him with a hopeful look and shook his head before saying, "There's no way to save her."
Hayase was a magic beast that had intelligence beyond normal beast intelligence, so while he was speaking in the human language, he was also able to communicate to the little tiger cub in the beast language.
That was why Lin Fan had called out Hayase in the first place.
The little tiger cub just looked at Hayase with a look of disbelief before shaking its head and hitting Hayase with its claws.
Hayase just let the little tiger cub do what it wanted since he knew that it was in grief. Not to mention that it was just a little child, so even if it hit him, it couldn't hurt him.
The tiger cub gave up on hitting Hayase after a while and went over to its mother's corpse with tears in its eyes. Without even caring about the blood covering its mother's body, it placed its face right against its mother's corpse and started rubbing up against it.
During this, both Lin Fan and Hayase silently stood on the side, waiting for the little tiger cub to finish mourning.
After around fifteen minutes, the tiger cub finally looked up again at Lin Fan and Hayase, but this time, there was a different look in its eyes. After the mourning that it had done, it had finally accepted the fact that Hayase had told it…
Lin Fan nodded to Hayase when he saw this and he came forward to the tiger cub to say, "If you want, you can come with us."
The tiger cub looked up at Hayase and then up at Lin Fan before hanging its head for a bit. After a long period of silence, the tiger cub gave a slight nod.
It turned to leave, but Lin Fan stopped it.
The tiger cub was confused when it saw Lin Fan stopping it, but then it saw Lin Fan coming over to its mother's corpse and it jumped right in between Lin Fan and the corpse.
Lin Fan just calmly said, "We should at least bury it before leaving, right?"
After Hayase helped him translate, the little tiger cub looked back at its mother's corpse and then gave a nod.
With Lin Fan doing most of the work, a hole was quickly dug up and the mother tiger was put into the hole.
There wasn't much talking that was done during this funeral as it just involved the mother tiger being buried in the ground.
After the mother tiger was buried, the little tiger cub once again stood there in a daze, looking at the covered up ground over its mother.
Lin Fan leaned down to pick it up before patting it and saying to it, "You're a part of our family now, alright?"
After Hayase translated it, the little tiger cub looked up at Lin Fan and gave a nod.
[White Tiger (Cub) has been moved by your words. Affection has increased by 50.]
[Target for taming has been detected. Does the host wish to tame White Tiger (Cub)?]
Lin Fan silently said yes like he normally did, but then he suddenly reacted to what the notification had said.
But it was already too late since he had already agreed to the notification.
The same light appeared around the tiger cub as all the other things that Lin Fan had tamed before disappearing just as quickly.
When Lin Fan looked down at his hand, he found that there was a red powder that was stuck to his hands. As well, he could see that there was a patch of white fur that was on the back of the little tiger cub.
When he had first met the little tiger cub, it had been completely red, but now it seemed like that red was just a dye from some powder stuck to its fur. The fur underneath was a pure white colour that was like untouched snow.
Since he had thought that this was just a normal kitten at first, Lin Fan hadn't bothered using the Appraisal Eye on it, but now…
[White Tiger] (Cub)
Cultivation: First Qi Gathering Realm
Bloodline: White Tiger
A cub that has the bloodline of one of the four Sacred Beasts, the White Tiger. The White Tiger was known as the Sacred Beast with the greatest attack power. Will become a Sacred Beast when it grows up.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmA Sacred Beast?!
The four Sacred Beasts were known as the guardians of the four cardinal directions. They were the Azure Dragon of the East, the Vermillion Bird of the South, the White Tiger of the West, and the Black Tortoise of the North.
These were beasts that were worshiped as gods back on Earth and right now Lin Fan was holding a little tiger cub with the bloodline of one of the four Sacred Beasts?
The description even said that this cub would become a Sacred Beast when it grew up.
While he wasn't certain what Sacred Beast meant in this world, he was certain that it wouldn't be weak with a title that included the word "Sacred".
He couldn't wait to see just how this little tiger cub developed in the future.
But for now, it was still a child.
Then after thinking about it, he couldn't help thinking of something…If the child had the White Tiger bloodline, then didn't that mean that the mother would also have the bloodline?
Lin Fan couldn't help looking at the grave, but he found that it wasn't as he had expected.
The tiger mother that had been buried was just a normal tiger spirit beast.
Which meant that the bloodline must have come from the father…But where was this little tiger cub's father?
Lin Fan was lost in a period of deep thought until the little tiger cub suddenly poked his hand with its nose.
Lin Fan was surprised to feel this soft feeling, but then he just revealed a smile as he forgot about all of this. In the end, it was all good because this little tiger cub really was cute.
Cute was justice!
Once that was all taken care of, Lin Fan brought the little tiger cub over to the pool in the clearing to wash it up before bringing it into the Pet Storage Space.
The little tiger cub ran all around the Pet Storage Space like it had discovered a new world before finally lying down in front of the World Tree sapling to take a nap.
Lin Fan looked at the little tiger cub with a smile on his face before heading out.
After all, he still had a mission that he had to do.
