Bringing a System to the Beast World

Chapter 378 Nothing Can Be Done

As Wu Yue gathered her witch power to help the cub heal its injuries, she looked at the grass beside her. Was that water outside?
Green Grass nodded: "Yes, this injured cub is the cub of Water. Water used to trade for salt, and then the orcs from the Rock Salt Tribe came and said that their witch wanted to eat delicious food."

They only gave a very small amount of salt and then tried to take away the water from the food.

The little guy came out with a bamboo jar to collect salt, and bumped into the leg of a rock salt tribe orc warrior. The orc warrior said that the little guy had offended them and kicked and punched him.

Nagano was also injured while protecting the cubs.

"If it weren't for our tribe's orc warriors coming, the little guy would probably be dead already."

Wu Yue glanced at the cub on the kang (a heated brick bed) who had stopped vomiting blood but was still pale-faced, and felt a surge of anger.

Taking a deep breath, he said to Qingcao, "Go out and tell Shui that the cub's arm and leg bones are broken. I'm using my magic to heal him now, which will take some time. Don't let anyone else come in and disturb us."

Upon hearing that the arm and leg were broken, Qingcai's expression instantly turned grim. In the end, she simply nodded heavily and said, "You take good care of the cub. I'll go find some water."

After saying that, he stepped out of the house.

"Chief, I feel the input of magical power has slowed down a lot. Check on the cub's injuries!"

The little guy was on such a heavy load, almost dying, but the system didn't say anything and directly started the scan.

"That's enough, host. The injuries inside your body have been brought under control."

"While no one's around yet, let's hurry and take care of the cub's arms and legs."

Looking at the little guy's deformed arms and legs, Wu Yue felt an even greater disgust for the orcs of the Rock Salt Tribe.

Without further ado, he said, "Exchange for the auxiliary system."

The moment the voice fell, a familiar energy spread throughout Zhou Sheng, and her body was immediately taken control.

Having spent a large sum of points to redeem this precious learning opportunity, Wu Yue naturally wouldn't give it up. She focused intently on the movements in her hands, recording every action and feeling of her body at that moment.

Meanwhile, outside, green grass held water in its hands, and a group of people stood in the courtyard waiting.

At this moment, Xuehu Wu was sitting on a stone bench in the pavilion in the courtyard, asking Nagano what had happened.

When he learned that it was the Rock Salt Tribe that was causing trouble within the tribe, Snow Tiger Witch's old face instantly darkened.

He then waved for Nagano to leave, saying, "Go back and rest. You can leave this matter to the tribe."

Nagano nodded and dragged his still aching body toward his house.

Inside the house, with the help of the assistive system, the cub's severed arms and legs were reattached.

Looking at the bamboo strips fixed to the little guy's arms and legs, Wu Yue couldn't help but purse her lips: "Tongzi, shouldn't you at least process these bamboo strips a little? Tying them on like this makes the little guy very uncomfortable."

The burrs around the edges are visible.

Upon hearing Wu Yue's words, Tongzi's little face instantly froze. It stretched out its little paws and looked at its unreliable host with accusatory eyes: "Do my little paws hurt that much!"

Looking at the little guy's slightly engorged paws, Wu Yue felt a pang of tenderness. She took out a few pieces of salt ore from her spatial storage and tossed them to Tongzi: "Alright, here's something good to eat. Thanks for your help, Tongzi."

After giving Wu Yue a satisfied look, Tongzi excitedly took two pieces of rock ore and hid in a corner to gnaw on them.

The cub's breathing has calmed down considerably. As long as we keep an eye on it tonight and nothing else goes wrong, we can rest assured.

After quickly cleaning up the blood on her body, Wu Yue pushed open the door and went out.

In the courtyard outside, besides water and grass, there were many tribespeople who were concerned about the little guy's injuries.

Upon seeing Wu Yue emerge, everyone anxiously crowded around.

Shui's lips trembled slightly as she walked over, supported by Qingcao, her eyes filled with panic: "Yue, my baby."

Sensing her fear, Wu Yue went down and took her hand: "Don't worry, the little cub is alright now. Go in and stay with him. Don't make a sound and disturb him. And don't touch his arms or legs. Remember that."

Tears streamed down Shui's face as she listened to Wu Yue's instructions, nodding rapidly. Her blurry, tearful eyes kept glancing at the closed door, as if she were about to rush in to see the little cub.

Understanding Shui's feelings and giving her some instructions, Wu Yue gestured for Qingcao to accompany Shui into the house.

The next moment, she heard the suppressed sobs of a female coming from inside, and felt a pang of sadness.

He sighed and walked into the pavilion.

Xuehu Wu was talking to Yuan Lang and the others when he saw Wu Yue coming over. He pointed to an empty stool and gestured for her to sit down.

"How are the cubs?"

Wu Yue pursed her lips: "The injuries inside my body are very serious, but I just used my witch power to control them. Both of my arms and one leg were forcibly broken."

Wu's already deep eyes grew even darker: "I know what you're thinking, but we can make the tribes of the Crimson Flame Plains pay compensation, but we can't punish them."

Wu Yue's face instantly turned extremely ugly: "They hurt our tribesmen. If it weren't for Chang Ye and the tribesmen, the little cub would probably be dead. What can we do to them?"

Snow Tiger Witch glanced at him and nodded firmly: "No, in order to ensure the safety of our tribesmen going to the trade fair, all of our participating tribes have sworn an oath before the Beast God that they will never harm the people of other tribes on their own territory."

This is not only for the sake of other tribes, but also to ensure that our tribespeople will not be harmed when they travel to other tribes' territories to participate in trade fairs in the future.

Wu Yue fell silent. This oath was both a constraint and a protection.

However, they forgot to make an agreement with the tribes that came to participate in the trade fair.

Although she dared not, Wu Yue knew that she had no choice but to let it go.
Seeing the little female's unpleasant expression, Yuan Lang clenched his large hand, and some other thoughts gradually formed in his mind.

The rock salt tribe's witch truly lived up to her reputation as a hypocrite. Not long after they finished speaking, her characteristically gentle greeting came from outside the courtyard: "I wonder how the little cub and the slave who were injured today are doing?"

The Snow Tiger Tribe members around them glared angrily at the Rock Salt Tribe members, their eyes burning with fury as if they were ready to ignite these despicable outsiders at any moment.

But the rock salt tribe's witch was clearly aware of the trade fair's agreement, and she confidently led her group of orcs in. Upon seeing the snow tiger witch and Wu Yue in the pavilion, a look of sadness appeared on her face: "I rested after lunch, I really didn't expect my people to go out and do such a thing."

She touched her hair, looking rather apologetic: "Our Rock Salt Tribe's orc warriors are the most revered beings besides the shaman and the chieftain. No half-orc or pure-blooded person dares to look directly at an orc warrior."

He came back and said that some innocent little brat had rushed up and bumped into his leg because of the salt, so he had given the brat a lesson.

I just didn't expect the Snow Tiger tribe to value a mere human cub so much.

Although the priestess's expression carried a hint of apology, her words conveyed no sense of regret whatsoever.

Moreover, the implication in those words was clearly that the cub was beaten because it had bumped into the orc first!

It's simply shameless!
Wu Yue wanted nothing more than to jump up and slap the witch across the face, but remembering what the witch had just said, she suppressed her anger.

After gritting his teeth, he looked up and smiled, "So that's how it is. The tribespeople were only focused on carrying the injured cubs and males back, and they didn't explain what happened."

After saying that, her gaze fell on the tall orc behind the rock salt tribe's witch: "Since it was our cub who offended the orc warriors of the ghost tribe, then they were also at fault, and we will naturally punish them later."

but"

The smile in her eyes gradually faded: "Everyone knows the fighting power of a cub, and besides, it was just a pure human cub. Your orc warriors went too far."

Moreover, the slave who was just injured is mine. He's been making something very important for me recently, something I'll need for my sacrificial rites, and only he can make it.

Now that I've been injured by your orc warriors, which has delayed me, I don't even know if this item can be made before the sacrifice."

At this point, her face paled slightly, and she murmured in a voice loud enough for everyone to hear, "I promised the Beast God, so if I can't keep my promise, should I tell him why?"

If the orc warrior behind the rock salt tribe's witch was still somewhat smug after hearing the first few sentences, Wu Yue's last few words about making items for the Beast God's sacrifice truly terrified him.

They would never believe that Wu Yue was lying, because on this continent, no one would dare to lie about the Beast God.

The orc warriors rely on the power of the Beast God, which is the source of their strength and was bestowed upon them by the Beast God.

If the Beast God were to find out that the disciple's offerings had been delayed because of him, what would become of him?
The rock salt tribe's witch's face also darkened. She turned around and glared fiercely at the pale-faced orc behind her, her apology finally becoming much more sincere.

He waved to several orcs behind him who carried forward several large animal skin bags: "This is our compensation to you, Wuyue. Please forgive our people for accidentally injuring your slave."

Then, with a somewhat stiff expression, he said, "As for the salt for the cub, I will have the clansmen deliver it directly to his home, and it will definitely not be less than this."

As for the slave's injuries…

She said somewhat awkwardly, "Because my witchcraft isn't very effective in healing, I'll send some more salt to that slave later. I hope it won't delay your business."

Hearing her say that, Wu Yue nodded: "Okay."

They came to provoke us, but unexpectedly lost a large quantity of salt.

After the rock salt tribe shaman turned around, her face was so dark it seemed like water could drip from it.

On the way back to the house, the atmosphere was quite oppressive.

The orc warrior behind the rock salt tribe's witch struggled for a moment before laughing and saying, "Witch, aren't those salts for the injured cubs?"
Are we really going to send a lot more salt later?

Upon hearing this, the rock salt tribe's shaman turned around, her eyes dark and her expression unreadable: "Send it over. When you get back, just send it over immediately, drop it off, and leave."

"Don't cause any more trouble if you want to return to the tribe alive."

Upon hearing this, the orc's face turned pale, and he nodded respectfully.

The rock salt tribe shaman turned around, looking at the magical power emerging in her palm, a strange smile curving her lips: "What healing ability do you need?"

Meanwhile, in Wu Yue's courtyard, the Snow Tiger tribe members were not very happy to see a large pile of salt on the ground.

Although this amount of salt is more than the salt that the orcs had risked their lives to obtain in the past.

But the thought of the dying cub inside the house made him lose all excitement.

"Let's move these salts inside the house first."

Snow Tiger Witch waved his hand and ordered the two orc warriors beside him. Teng Qian and Teng Kun, who were standing nearby, also stepped forward to help.

Seeing Wu Yue's still gloomy expression, Xuehu Wu sighed, stood up, and walked outside: "Don't let anything happen on our tribe's territory!"

After saying that, she swayed and walked out of the courtyard. Seeing that the shaman had left, the surrounding clansmen also greeted Wu Yue and left.

As they left, everyone was talking amongst themselves, and many of them looked angry.

Looking at the several animal skin bags full of salt lying on the ground not far away, Wu Yue wanted nothing more than to go up and kick them over, but thinking of how precious these things were, she suppressed her anger.

Those damned Rock Salt Tribe are so arrogant! They hurt their Snow Tiger Tribe members, and they think they can just get rid of them with a few packets of salt? Ha!
What's most infuriating is that she can't do anything about these guys!
The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. He wished he could immediately capture that orc and do this and that, and then do that and that.

"Don't be angry, have some fruit."

Seeing the little female's huffy expression, Yuan Lang's eyes lit up with a smile, and he reached out to take a fruit and hand it to her.

Looking at the bright red fruit in front of her, Wu Yue sighed, "I'm not in the mood to eat any fruit right now."

Hearing him say that, Yuan Lang chuckled: "Didn't you hear what Wu said before he left?"

The orc raised an eyebrow at the little female in front of him, his eyes seemingly holding a deeper meaning.

What did the witch say before she left?
Wu Yue looked at the orc with a puzzled expression: "What did the shaman say?"

Suddenly, as if she had thought of something, her eyes lit up instantly!

The anger and gloom in his eyes vanished instantly, and a familiar, mischievous smile curled at the corners of his lips.
