Surviving in the Beast World with a System-Chapter 160: A Man Can Only Take So Much

All she could do for now, however, was occasionally ask about the injured while the Beastmen were trying to build goodwill. This would make her seem even more kind and approachable in the eyes of the Flying Eagle Tribe’s Beastmen.

That way, she would have a place for herself on the eagle’s back when the time came. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞

The group had just set foot into the canyon when several tall Beastman Warriors came running to meet them.

The smiles on their faces couldn’t have been brighter. Pumping their large, bare feet, they sprinted forward with a WHOOSH.

Teng Qian beamed and went forward to greet them, about to pull them into a hug—after their long day of separation—to renew their brotherly bonds.

But he watched as the Beastmen, grinning from ear to ear, ran right past him and stopped beside Wu Yue.

One offered her fruit, another gave her roasted meat, and one idiot even tried to curry favor with the very Beast Skin he himself had given to the young female!!!

’What the hell! How can I let this slide?’

’Ignoring me is one thing, you damn bastards, but to snatch my Beast Skin right as you run past me?!’

’This is the last straw.’

Flaring his nostrils and breathing heavily, Teng Qian was just about to erupt when his eyes met his General’s profound gaze.

He decisively turned his head, whistling a little tune as he walked toward the cave in the canyon.

’Ah, forget it. I saw it long ago. The General has designs on that young female.’

’No need for me to lift a finger. Those Beastmen are so dead, hahaha!’

Sure enough, a moment later, the very same Beastmen who had been fawning over her trailed behind them, carrying enormous packs filled with herbs and food, their faces a picture of misery.

Seeing their pitiful, hangdog expressions made Teng Qian feel absolutely gleeful inside.

Just as before they left, half of the tribe had remained in the cave to stand guard.

Seeing Yuan Lang and the others return, the Beastmen hurried over to greet them. "You’re back! Did you gather the herbs you needed?"

Wu Yue patted the pack on the back of the Beastman in front of her. "We got them all. After a short rest, we can start preparing the herbs."

Yuan Lang gave his two subordinates a look. Teng Qian and Teng Kun then enthusiastically led the Beastmen from the Flying Eagle Tribe to another cave.

Yuan Lang took the opportunity to tell his own Beastmen about concealing Wu Yue’s identity.

The Beastman Warriors all nodded solemnly.

Of course, they couldn’t say anything. Wu Yue was a hot commodity in the tribe right now. If the Beastmen of the Flying Eagle Tribe found out that the Snow Tiger Tribe already had a new witch...

Heh heh, they would absolutely send their most handsome and dashing males to try and seduce her.

And so, when the Beastmen of the Flying Eagle Tribe came out after getting settled, they discovered they could no longer get anywhere near the Witch Disciple.

The Snow Tiger Tribe’s Beastmen kept their eyes on her at all times. Though their faces were full of smiles, they were also filled with vigilance.

Wu Yue shared some of the medicinal soup she had previously prepared for the injured Snow Tiger Beastman with a few of the Flying Eagle Tribe’s Beastmen.

"Our tribe’s Beastman Warriors developed fevers after being burned by the Single-horned Wolf’s Talent Skill. I added a potion from the witch to this soup; drinking it will help prevent your own people from developing a fever."

The Flying Eagle Tribe Beastmen accepted it gratefully and carefully fed the medicinal soup to their fellow tribesmen.

The Beastman Warriors who had gone out to hunt had not yet returned. Wu Yue started a fire at the cave entrance, took out the herbs from a pack, and began preparing a topical ointment.

Watching as the young female tossed one unfamiliar herb after another into the stone pot, the look in Yuan Lang’s eyes grew more profound.

He was beginning to doubt his own judgment.

He had previously assumed that the young female came from the same place they did, but the more time they spent together, the more he noticed the differences between her and the women from his homeland.
