Chapter 5: The Injured Beastman

Gaiyin looked at the tribal members slowly surrounding him, a headache brewing. He couldn't help but roar. Upon hearing this, the previously noisy tribespeople immediately fell silent. Su Tang looked up at Gaiyin in surprise. She hadn't expected this big tiger to hold such high esteem within the tribe. Gaiyin couldn't quite explain why, but he genuinely enjoyed the gaze of this young female. Puffing out his chest, he addressed the tribespeople, "This is a young female lost from another tribe. She's not sick, and I will take care of her from now on!" After the tribespeople were silent for a few seconds, chaos broke out once more! "The young female isn't sick! She won't die!" "This young female is very pretty but a bit thin! Can't she bear cubs?" "The Chief said that he will look after the young female?" "Oh Lord! As Beastmen warriors, we can only mark one female in our lifetime. The Chief should find a strong one who can bear cubs!" Su Tang looked at the crowd in front of her with some curiosity. Could it be that all of them were transformed from animals? Since she couldn't transform into an animal, would they consider her a deviant and eat her? Thinking about this sent chills down her spine, and her body trembled involuntarily. Gaiyin, who was always holding her hand, sensed her abnormality. Assuming that she was frightened by the tribespeople, he lifted his hand, signaling the tribespeople to calm down. His black, vertical pupils swept over the crowd. In a severe and indifferent tone, he said, "This is the female I have chosen!" This one sentence made the tribespeople understand that there was no room for negotiation in this matter, and also warned those Beastmen who had improper thoughts about Su Tang. "Oh, my~ Oh, my~" The Beastmen held their fists high, jumping around in a very strange manner. But Su Tang felt they were welcoming her. Her rigid body slowly relaxed, and a smile gradually appeared on her face. Just as the crowd was cheering and jumping for joy, a male Beastman covered in blood broke through the crowd. "Chief, Chief! We encountered a Long Tooth Beast while hunting! Meng Ze is injured! His belly is cut open by the beast's long teeth! He's lost a lot of blood!" Gaiyin's face changed instantly. His whole being exuded an intimidating aura. Even though the situation was urgent, he remained calm and composed in giving orders. "Xiongda, take two people and carry Meng Ze to the stream. Be careful not to touch the wound. Qing Guo, go and get Old Nike to come over and take a look." The two designated Beastmen promptly departed. The remaining members fell into chaos once again. "Meng Ze's belly has been cut open, can he survive?" "May the Beast God bless, we hope Meng Ze can be safe!" "Our tribe doesn't have a doctor, looks like we can't save Meng Ze!" "Oh, it's a pity. Meng Ze was a Beastman with great potential to become a Divine Brave Warrior..." The Beastmen, each expressing their views, had looks of regret and sorrow on their faces. Su Tang also figured out what was going on by now. Apparently, because one of them was injured, they had no means to treat him. If she managed to save the injured Beastman, could she receive the protection of this tribe? Even though the thought crossed her mind, without seeing the patient's condition, Su Tang was unwilling to take the risk. If she failed to save him, wouldn't she become a criminal? Suddenly, a young female Beastman rushed out from the crowd, falling to her knees beside Gaiyin, her eyes welling up with tears. "Chief! Please think of a way to save Meng Ze! He can't meet the Beast God yet…I, I, I haven't conceived Meng Ze's cub. I can't live without him…"
