Chapter 475 - 377: The Yan Yan Tribe Witch’s Resentment
The Snow Tiger Witch watched his expression instantly darken and cackled.
Wu Yue was completely baffled. "Is there something I don’t know about..." ’An affair?’
The gloating Snow Tiger Witch explained that the witch from the Yan Yan Tribe wanted to mate with Yuan Lang, making sure not to omit a single one of her demanding conditions.
After hearing this, Wu Yue felt quite dejected. It felt a lot like Yuan Lang was the one receiving a marriage proposal.
She stole a glance at the Beastman, only to be caught by the dark-faced Yuan Lang. "What’s on your mind?"
"I’m just saying, you can’t give in to that domineering female! Mm-hm!"
She finished by clasping her scrawny hands together with a look of utmost sincerity.
Yuan Lang scoffed, "..."
’The gloating look in your eyes couldn’t possibly be any more obvious.’
Hearing this, Teng Qian and Teng Kun sidled over. As the poster child for sycophantic beastmen, Teng Qian would never disappoint.
You could tell just how deeply he feared Yuan Lang from the sycophantic smile on his face and the tiny flicker of glee he was trying—and failing—to suppress.
"Boss, that female looks like a Shun Yuan, she’s not worthy of you in the slightest! Just give the order, and my little brother and I will go beat the crap out of her!"
At his words, Teng Kun shuddered dramatically and quickly waved his hands. "Uh, Big Bro, you can go ahead. I’ll just cheer ’666’ for you from the side!"
He then looked toward Wu Yue and asked in a hushed voice, "It is ’666,’ right?"
Wu Yue wiped the sweat from her brow and forced an awkward smile. "That’s right, ’666’!"
’My days in the Snow Tiger Tribe... what have I been doing?!’
The System hummed, "How rare, Host. You’re actually having an existential crisis."
Wu Yue reached out, shoved the System’s fat head into her satchel, and said through gritted teeth, "Why don’t you just shut up!"
"Yue! Yue, come out, quickly!"
Just as the group was teasing Yuan Lang, Qingcao’s anxious shout suddenly came from outside the courtyard.
A sob was audible in Qingcao’s voice. The smile vanished from Wu Yue’s face in an instant, and she got up to head out of the courtyard.
A crowd of Snow Tiger Tribe members and slaves had gathered outside. Qingcao was holding a small, scrawny cub in her arms, covered in blood and grime.
"What happened?"
Wu Yue hurried forward, wanting to check Qingcao for injuries, but Qingcao sidestepped her. "Yue, I’m not hurt. The ones who are hurt are this little cub and Chang Ye."
At that moment, the Snow Tiger Witch also came out of the courtyard. He showed no disdain for Chang Ye’s lowly status, walking straight over to the Pure Human slave, who was being supported by two Half beastman Warriors, and began carefully examining his injuries.
"Come inside with me. What’s wrong with the little cub?"
Wu Yue said, already heading back into the courtyard.
Qingcao hurriedly followed, holding the small cub. The two of them walked into a bedroom next to Wu Yue’s room.
"Place the little cub on the bed platform."
Qingcao nodded and carefully placed the blood-soaked cub on the straw-mat-covered bed platform. Then she stood to one side. "Yue, we absolutely can’t let those Beastmen from the Yan Yan Tribe get away with this. It was obvious they were trying to kill this little cub."
Blood was trickling from the cub’s mouth and nose. Both of his arms and one of his legs were bent at unnatural angles, and his small, filthy face was a mess of blood and mud.
"When we got there, we saw a Beastman Warrior from the Yan Yan Tribe kicking and beating this little one.
Even though he’s just a Pure Human, he’s still one of our Snow Tiger Tribe. For an outsider Beastman to dare lay a hand on one of our tribe members, it’s just too outrageous."
"System, scan!"
Wu Yue’s voice was grave. Just as she was examining him, the little cub coughed up several more mouthfuls of blood.
"DING~ One point deducted. Scan commencing."
A moment later, the System’s voice was also grave. "Host, both of the little cub’s arms and one of his legs have been stomped on and broken. They need to be reset.
Given that you have no experience in this area, Host, the System recommends you exchange for the auxiliary program to avoid causing the little cub lifelong, irreparable damage.
Of course, the immediate priority is to first use your witch power to repair the little cub’s heavily damaged internal organs.
If Qingcao and the others hadn’t gotten there when they did, this little one would probably be dead already."
’The first part was so sad, but that last line about "irreparable damage" made me want to jump up and give the System a taste of my Stormy Meteor Fist.’
"My child!"
Just as Wu Yue was preparing to begin the treatment, a shrill, heart-rending wail suddenly echoed from the courtyard—and the voice sounded extremely familiar.
