Chapter 219
Xiong Duoduo was speechless when his older brother Xiong Yuan said that their tribe was poor.
In fact, when Xiong Duoduo was very young, he vaguely remembered that the Winter Bear Tribe was not very poor, and even compared to the surrounding tribes, they were fairly prosperous.
At that time, the witch and several elders were still alive. When he was young, he would not starve every winter, and no one would fall to the point where they did not even have the herbs necessary for survival.
However, after the witch and elders left or died one by one, the Winter Bear tribe’s conditions gradually dwindled.
What remained unchanged was the elders’ thought of not giving up a single bear.
Often, demons from other tribes would say that their tribe was stupid. Even the strong bears were about to lose their lives, and they still had to take care of the old, weak, and sick.
There were even some who knew that their tribe’s demons were kind, so they deliberately threw some babies with defects into the Winter Bear tribe’s territory.
Even though the bears in the tribe were warned not to pick up those cubs, but they forgot every time.
Xiong Duoduo thought angrily, completely forgetting that he was the softest bear in the tribe and the one who picked up the most cubs. He was the least qualified person to have an opinion on the matter. →→
Because they were worried about the injured bears in the tribe, Xiong Duoduo and Xiong Yuan didn’t dare to waste their time. They didn’t care about how late it was and turned into their demon form to rush toward the Winter Bear tribe.
……
At the same time, outside the Wind Lion Tribe.
Lu Ziran, who had been beaten up by Mr. Big Gray Wolf and crippled by Grandmother Ruyi, finally limped back to the tribe.
Because he was worried that the other lions would find out that he was seriously injured, he endured the pain of his bones cracking and pretended that he was all right. Taking advantage of the night sky, he went straight back to the cave where Rou Yue lived with him.
The thick animal skin curtain was lifted, and Rou Yuerao who was about to fall asleep was startled. Her voice was timid,” Who?”
“…… It’s me.” Lu Ziran nodded and turned to enter the cave, putting down the animal skin curtain.
“Ziran?” Rou Yuerao immediately felt pleasantly surprised. She hurriedly sat up from the stone bed covered with thick beast skin and put on a new, second-order purple fox fur coat. She happily flew into his embrace.
But very quickly, thinking that Lu Ziran was originally going to look for Ruan Qiuqiu, her voice became a little more resentful.” Why did you leave for so many days? Ruan Qiuqiu made you go crazy? Didn’t you say you wanted to bring a gift back? Where’s the gift? Did you give it to that woman?”
Lu Ziran had already been seriously injured. After he returned, not only did he not receive any comfort or warmth from Rou Yuerao, but he was instead dragged away by her to ask where the gift was. He immediately held back his anger and pushed her away without any gentleness. His voice was rarely cold,” Yuerao, I’m injured.”
Rou Yuerao was shocked for a moment, and it took her some time to react,”…… Why are you injured?”
He was a powerful warrior who was about to break through to the fourth rank. Ordinary beasts would not be able to harm him.
Lu Ziran’s heart was filled with frustration. He simply took off his black coat, revealing his bruised upper body and bloodstained calf.
Now that Rou Yuerao was convinced, she felt uneasy and subconsciously asked,” Then your cultivation hasn’t fallen, right?”
If his cultivation dropped, he would no longer be the strongest warrior in the tribe. What would she do in the future then?
Lu Ziran’s expression darkened. Staring at her beautiful face, he said in a deep voice,” I met a high-level fiend and fell to the second level.”
Rou Yuerao’s enchanting face instantly turned pale. She stared at him in surprise and bewilderment. After a long pause, she muttered,” Heavens ……”
As she looked at the blood on Lu Ziran’s body, a thought flashed through her mind——
It was said that the fiend’s qi would hurt people. Wouldn’t the qi on Zi Ran’s body hurt her too……
Seeing Rou Yuerao’s pale face, Lu Ziran thought she was worried about him. He sighed and said in a gentle voice,” It doesn’t matter. The spirit energy in our cave is rich, so it’s very easy for me to cultivate again. It’s just that I might not be able to hunt like before this winter. You’ve worked hard to keep me company.”
Hearing his words, Rou Yuerao felt slightly relieved. She forced a smile and said the first words of comfort tonight,” Ziran, take good care of your injuries. We don’t lack food.”
As long as she indicated that she needed it, there would be many demons who would send food to her door. She had never been worried about not being full.
“Mm.” Lu Ziran’s mood was a little better as well. He had been so tired that he couldn’t hold on any longer, so he laid on the stone bed.” I’ll sleep for a while.”
After he finished speaking, he closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep. Naturally, he did not see Rou Yue’s perplexed and somewhat disdainful expression——
In the past, Zi Ran had never been so unyielding and cold, nor had he not cleaned himself up a bit. His wounds were still bleeding, how could he sit on her bed and dirty the soft mattress that the lion demons had given her……
His body smelled so bad that she did not want to stay in this cave.
Could it be that she had to treat and bandage his wound?
She had been held in the hands of humans and demons since she was young. She had never done such a dirty thing.
Even if it was for the sake of love, wasn’t it too much for her?
The more Rou Yuerao thought about it, the more uncomfortable she felt. She thought: anyway, she couldn’t distinguish the herbs and their proprieties so even if she wanted to help Ziran deal with his wounds, she couldn’t. She thus pinched her nose and lay down in the corner of the stone bed to avoid unnecessary physical contact with Lu Ziran.
……
bruh I completely forgot about those two, especially Rou Yuerao, I even forgot her name…
