The wicked female is extremely fierce, but she's pampered by her seven beast husbands.

Chapter 126 The Deep-Rooted Illness Cured
The family parted ways after breakfast the next day.

After the people left, the open space in front of the Ling family cave became much quieter in an instant.

When Yu Shaochen came out of the cave carrying dirty water, he ran into Yu Heng, who was standing in front of the cave.

He paused for a few seconds, placed the bucket at his feet, and asked, puzzled, "Is there something you need?"

Yuheng pointed into the cave: "I want to talk to the person inside."

Yu Shaochen hesitated for a moment, but then he remembered Ling Chengen's instructions that Yu Heng would only stay here for three days and had no ill intentions toward his family, so there was no need to be too wary, but also no need to have any deep contact with him; he could just let things take their course.

He picked up the bucket and stepped aside, saying, "Then you can go in. He's awake right now."

Yuheng watched Yu Shaochen walk away with the bucket before slowly making his way into the cave.

He had just adjusted to the dim light when he looked up and met a pair of wolf-like eyes.

This orc seems to be a wolf in its beast form.

Yu Heng only paused for a moment before walking straight over: "Have you thought it through?"

Su Weihua lay on the stone bed, her sword-like eyebrows slightly furrowed: "Although I am eager to regain my superpowers, I currently have nothing of value and cannot make an equivalent exchange with you."

"Even if you don't help me, I can actually guess some of it myself. The reason I can't activate my superpowers is mainly because the superpowers in my heart meridian are restricted."

Yu Heng raised an eyebrow slightly and chuckled, "You're quite clever."

"Actually, you don't need to ask me. Just go to any tribe and ask someone, and you'll know why I became like this." Su Weihua really couldn't understand the person in front of her, and she didn't know what his intentions were in approaching her.

You could say he meant well, but the other party demanded that he offer something of equal value in exchange.

But he's a useless person now, and he doesn't have anything of value.

The stockpiled ores were completely useless to a high-level wood-type beastman like Yuheng.

Yu Heng looked down at him and remained silent for a moment.

In fact, he had been staying in this area for the past two days and had not interacted with anyone outside the Ling family.

He is not a particularly outgoing person and tends to avoid crowds as much as possible.

The Ling family also suited him well. Apart from Ling Chengen being curious about how the cloud clothes were made at first, they basically didn't bother him anymore and even took care of his three meals a day.

These past few days have been the most comfortable period of his life in the past six months.

“I don’t like communicating with strangers.” Yuheng sat down on the wooden stump. “So if you’re willing to provide information, I’ll acknowledge its value.”

"As for equivalent compensation, just because you don't have it now doesn't mean you won't have it in the future."

Yu Heng said frankly, "I am a very tolerant person, especially towards those with whom I have made agreements."

"I don't need you to pay me right away, but I might suddenly contact you at some point in the future."

"Because I occasionally need some rare and exotic plants, which are very difficult to find. When harvesting them, I almost always encounter various strange beasts, so..."

Su Weihua breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this: "That's all?"

Yuheng scrutinized him for a long time: "That's all."

"But the tasks I assign are always very difficult to complete, and you might even pay with your life for them."

Without much hesitation, Su Weihua decisively replied, "Okay."

"How do you want to draw up the contract?"

Yu Heng's dark eyes remained unmoved. He then opened his left hand, and a thin, hair-like, bluish-yellow vine slowly unfurled from his palm: "It's simple, let this vine grow on your arm."

"No matter how far away you are, you can hear my voice, but you can only use it three times."

"After three times, the tendrils will wither completely and fall off your arm."

Su Weihua frowned slightly and asked, "What kind of impact does it have?"

Yu Heng tilted his head and said with a playful expression, "What do you think?"

Seeing Su Weihua's expression change slightly, he put away his playful expression and said seriously, "It will not have any effect on your body. I also cannot use the vines to spy on your thoughts and physical condition. They can only be used for one-way communication, so you cannot use them."

"If the vine hasn't fallen off by the time I complete the task I've entrusted to you, I will remove it for you."

Su Weihua raised her right arm and said without changing her expression, "Okay."

Yuheng brought the vine silk close to his forearm, and the thin, bluish-green silk pierced into his old, wounded skin.

Su Weihua's arm muscles tensed up for a moment, but quickly returned to normal.

The thin tendril lurked on the inside of his right forearm, near the crook of his arm, winding into an S-shaped curve, slowly unfolding two tiny buds, and then stopped moving completely.

Su Weihua tilted her head to examine the thin vine on the inside of her arm, which looked like a small piece of colorful tattoo, or like two fishhooks spliced ​​together.

"Now that the deal is done, I can help you with your treatment."

Yu Heng casually activated his wood-based supernatural power, which directly enveloped Su Weihua, who was lying on the stone bed.

Yu Shaochen stood at the cave entrance, staring blankly at the scene, completely stunned.

Such abundant wood-type energy...

The escaping substances entered his body, instantly making him clear-headed and mentally alert.

Even if he exhausted all his superpowers, he could hardly achieve one percent of the power in front of him.

Is this the difference between a top-tier wood-type and a level four wood-type?

Yu Shaochen leaned against the stone wall with one hand, watching Yu Heng perform the healing spell without blinking.

Yes, that person only used the most basic healing spells, but the effect was better than an eighth-level witch doctor's great healing spell.

After this healing technique was used, Su Weihua's physical condition improved visibly.

The most obvious change was that the crisscrossing scars on his body instantly shed their dark brown scabs, revealing pinkish-white new skin and flesh. As his superpower continued to penetrate his body, the difference in skin color also completely disappeared.

His entire skin seemed to have been transformed; his previously dull complexion had completely faded, and he had become healthy and fair.

Its entire body is like a clean and flawless white jade, with a faint hint of healthy pink.

As the last glimmer of wood-type power faded, it completely disappeared into his waist.

The young man, who was lying on the stone bed, looked at his hands in disbelief, then quickly propped himself up and sat up, gently pressing his lower back with both hands.

The pain that had tormented him for so long has completely disappeared.

Yuheng calmly got up and moved aside from the bedside: "Put your clothes on first."

Su Weihua turned around and glanced inside the cave, not quite remembering where her clothes had been stored.

Yu Shaochen snapped out of his daze, took a set of clothes from a bamboo basket in the corner, and handed it to him.

"Thanks."

Once again able to control her body flexibly, Su Weihua was overjoyed, unable to express it in words.

Seeing that he was so happy he was almost out of control, Yuheng said calmly, "Your superpowers haven't recovered yet. Are you sure you want to continue wasting time here?"

Su Weihua was initially taken aback, but quickly calmed down. "Lie flat on your back," Yu Heng said, pointing to the stone bed in front of her.

After Su Weihua lay down, countless vines crawled up the stone bed from Yu Heng's feet, quickly completely imprisoning Su Weihua's body.

"Why are you tying him up?" Yu Shaochen reverted to his beast form, stood on a stool to the side, and asked curiously.

Yuheng merely glanced at the red panda, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes, but he quickly regained his composure and calmly replied, "Because he will struggle violently in a moment."

"Just in case, it would be better to tie him up first."

Yu Shaochen was puzzled, but Yu Heng clearly didn't intend to explain further, so he shut his mouth and quietly watched from the side.

"The methods are a bit bloody, are you sure you want to continue watching?" Yuheng glanced at the little panda behind him and kindly reminded him.

Yu Shaochen didn't understand, but he still nodded.

To learn medicine, one must not be afraid of blood.

He had seen Su Weihua at her worst and felt that he would no longer be frightened by any big scene.

Then, Yu Heng took out a white bone blade from his sleeve. It was only the size of a palm and as long and narrow as a willow leaf. As he ran his left hand across the blade, a layer of light blue supernatural power enveloped it.

The next second, the small, willow-leaf-shaped blade pierced Su Weihua's chest.

Yu Shaochen was so frightened that his fur stood on end. His two already round eyes widened like copper bells, and he was so frightened that he lost his voice. His white, sharp claws popped out from his paw pads, gleaming with an unusual sharpness.

Yu Heng didn't even turn around. Countless dark green vines appeared silently and instantly bound the little panda that wanted to attack.

"I already told you it's a bit gory, but you still insist on staying here!"

Yu Shaochen said in a trembling voice, "If you kill him, the clan leader and the mistress will not let you off!"

His nonchalant threat almost made Yuheng burst out laughing.

"Alright, you can look if you want, but don't get in the way."

"Since I used my supernatural abilities to heal him, why would I want to kill him?"

They really are cowardly orcs.

That leaves her with only one redeeming quality: cuteness.

Su Weihua hadn't expected to be stabbed in the chest by a bone blade. It was definitely painful, and his vision went black immediately as his heart meridian was attacked. So he couldn't even make a sound at the first moment and couldn't cry out in pain. He could only writhe his body, pale and covered in sweat.

But the vines binding him were too strong, and he couldn't move at all.

But Yuheng remained unmoved from beginning to end, cutting open the flesh on his chest with knife after knife, while using his supernatural power to quickly heal his bleeding wounds, keeping him alive the whole time.

Finally, a transparent stone cone about the length of a finger was removed from his chest cavity.

Yu Heng pushed a burst of supernatural energy into Su Weihua's wound, and frowned slightly as he held the piece of mineral cone in his hand.

As the vines disappeared, Su Weihua sat up, pressing one hand to her chest. Her face was still pale, and her forehead and neck were covered in cold sweat.

He looked down at his chest, which was free of any wounds, and felt a thread-like flow of supernatural power beginning to flow from his heart. Only then did he look up at Yu Heng in a daze...

He had no idea that something had been inserted near his heart meridian.

He was covered in wounds before, but his chest was the only place without scars.

"What is that?" Su Weihua asked in shock.

After rinsing the blood off the transparent stone cone, Yu Heng examined it in his hand for a long time: "It's similar to the one inside my body, but it's also a little different."

"You have metal-based superpowers?" Yu Heng suddenly turned around and asked.

Su Weihua nodded, not understanding what he wanted to say.

“There is a trace of fire-type ability in this stone cone, although I am not a fire-type…” Yu Heng said thoughtfully.

He took out another stone cone of the same size from his spatial storage. The two looked identical, but upon closer inspection under the sunlight, subtle differences could be found.

The stone cone he retrieved from his own body contained a wisp of pale golden supernatural power.

It is metal-based energy.

Jin Kemu.

Fire overcomes metal.

He was well aware that superpowers are mutually reinforcing and mutually restraining.

Unexpectedly, someone would take advantage of this to destroy someone else's superpower core.

"Who planted this stone cone inside your body?"

Having figured out the key to it, Yu Heng's eyes sharpened, and his tone became even colder.

Su Weihua shook her head and said, "I have no recollection of it. At that time, I was actually unconscious for a period of time because I was imprisoned. But I was imprisoned by the clan at that time. Apart from my father... I can't think of anyone else right now."

"Your family?" Yuheng was a little surprised.

“Ha, we’re family. But we can’t really be called family anymore…” Su Weihua said self-deprecatingly.

Yu Shaochen had already come to his senses. After confirming that Su Weihua was unharmed, he slumped to the ground as if he had escaped death, adding indignantly, "His father was so wicked. All those injuries were inflicted by those former clansmen. They even severed his tendons and ligaments, and even the wounds on his face were treated with snake and lizard venom..."

“If his wife hadn’t gone to the swamp to hunt snakes and lizards to detoxify him, he might have died long ago.”

Su Weihua sat on the edge of the bed, glanced at Yu Shaochen who was standing up for him, and couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Indeed, without the young clan leader, I would not have been alive until now."

Yuheng glanced at the indignant little panda a couple more times, but felt no sympathy whatsoever. He simply asked, "Are you a wolf? Which wolf clan are you from?"

“Snow Wolf Tribe,” Yu Shaochen pointed in a direction, “is just north of our tribe, not too far.”

Without much hesitation, Yuheng stepped outside and said, "I'm going out for a bit."

Su Weihua watched his departing figure, her brows furrowing deeply.

Yu Shaochen glanced at his expression and said somewhat anxiously, "Did I...did I just say something wrong?"

Su Weihua shook her head, uncertainly saying, "If he were to attack my father, I wouldn't be worried."

Evil people will be punished by evil people.

"However, Yuheng's reputation on the Beast Plains... is not very good."

In short, this person is both righteous and wicked.

"He is very likely to do many things out of control in order to achieve his goals."

If it's only targeting Su Kang, that's one thing. But if he's killing more unsuspecting orcs in order to get more information about the stone cone...

Although he saved her life, Su Weihua felt uneasy about it.

While the Snow Wolf tribe certainly has many bad people, it also has many innocent orcs.

He was really worried, but after thinking for a moment, he immediately got up and strode outside.

"I'll go check on the situation. You stay here and watch the house."
