Surviving in the Beast World with a System

Chapter 476 - 378: Can’t Do Anything

Wu Yue channeled her witch power to help heal the young cub’s internal injuries. She glanced at Qingcao beside her. "Is that Shui outside?"

Qingcao nodded. "Yes, the injured cub is Shui’s child. Shui was trading food for salt, but then some Beastman from the Yan Yan Tribe came over and said their witch wanted some tasty food.

They only offered a tiny amount of salt but wanted to take Shui’s food.

The little boy came out with a bamboo canister to collect the salt and bumped into a Yan Yan Tribe Beastman Warrior’s leg. That Beastman Warrior claimed the boy had offended them and proceeded to kick and beat him.

Chang Ye was injured protecting the young cub.

If our tribe’s Beastman Warriors hadn’t arrived when they did, the little boy would probably be dead."

Wu Yue glanced at the cub on the bed. He had stopped spitting up blood, but his face was still deathly pale, and rage surged within her.

She took a deep breath and said to Qingcao, "Go outside and tell Shui that the bones in the young cub’s arm and leg are broken. I’m using witch power to treat him now. It will take some time, so don’t let anyone else come in and disturb me."

When Qingcao heard that his arm and leg were broken, her expression instantly turned grim. She just nodded heavily. "Focus on healing the young cub. I’ll go find Shui."

With that, she turned and left the house.

"System, I feel the flow of my witch power slowing down. Check the cub’s internal injuries!"

The little boy was so gravely injured, only a breath away from death. The System said nothing and immediately initiated a scan.

"That’s enough, Host. The internal injuries have been stabilized.

While no one is here to interrupt, you should hurry and set the young cub’s arm and leg."

Wu Yue looked at the little boy’s twisted arm and leg, her loathing for the Yan Yan Tribe’s Beastman Warriors growing even stronger.

Without a moment’s hesitation, she said, "Redeem the assistance system."

The instant she spoke, a familiar energy coursed through her, and a moment later, her body was no longer her own to control.

Having spent a huge number of points for this precious learning opportunity, Wu Yue wasn’t about to let it go to waste. She focused with rapt attention on her hands’ movements, memorizing every action and sensation in her body.

Meanwhile, outside the house, Qingcao held Shui’s hand as they stood with a group of people, waiting in the courtyard.

The Snow Tiger Witch was sitting on a stone bench in the courtyard’s pavilion, asking Chang Ye what had happened.

When he learned that the Yan Yan Tribe was causing trouble within their own tribe’s territory, the Snow Tiger Witch’s expression instantly darkened.

He then waved a hand, dismissing Chang Ye. "Go back and rest. The tribe will handle this."

Chang Ye nodded, dragging his aching body back toward his house.

Back inside, with the help of the assistance system, the young cub’s broken arm and leg were successfully set.

Looking at the bamboo splints fastened to the little boy’s arm and leg, Wu Yue couldn’t help but grumble, "System, couldn’t you have at least smoothed these splints out a bit? Tying them on directly like this must be so uncomfortable for him."

You could see all the rough splinters around the edges.

Hearing this, the System’s small, furry face instantly froze. It held out its little paws, giving its unreliable Host an accusatory look. "But my poor little paws are sore!"

Seeing the System’s slightly raw little paws, Wu Yue’s heart softened. She took a few pieces of salt ore from her storage space and tossed them to it. "Okay, okay, here’s a treat for you. Thanks for your help, System."

After giving Wu Yue a satisfied look, the System excitedly snatched up two pieces of Rock Ore and scurried into a corner to gnaw on them.

The young cub’s breathing had evened out considerably. As long as someone watched over him tonight and no complications arose, he would be out of danger.

After quickly cleaning the blood from her clothes, Wu Yue pushed open the door and stepped outside.

In the courtyard outside, Shui and Qingcao were joined by many other tribe members, all concerned about the little boy’s condition.

When they saw Wu Yue emerge, they all anxiously pressed forward.

Shui’s lips trembled. Supported by Qingcao, she stumbled forward, her eyes wild with panic. "Yue, my... my cub..."

Sensing her fear, Wu Yue stepped down and took her hand. "Don’t worry, the young cub is out of danger. You can go in and sit with him now, but be quiet so you don’t disturb him. And whatever you do, do not touch his arm or leg. You must remember that."

Tears streamed down Shui’s face. She nodded quickly as she listened to Wu Yue’s instructions, her tear-blurred gaze darting toward the closed door, looking as if she might burst inside at any second to see her son.
