317: Chapter 317 Urgent Sounds Arrive

The door creaked open, revealing Yan Chi's anxious expression.

Originally, there was no need for Foreign Tribe beastmen like them to participate in such battles between Tribes.

He only stayed behind to protect Yan Lie and his Consort.

By the time he received the news, it was already too late.

Fortunately, they returned safely.

"Big Brother, you're here. Come in and sit down."

Yan Chi stepped inside, asking as he walked, "Seeing that you are well, I can rest easy. Where is Yan Lie? Is he badly hurt?"

"Yes, it's quite serious."

Yan Chi's heart sank. "Which room is he in? I'll go in and see him."

Bai Wanwan closed the door and led the way for him. "Big Brother, this way."

Yan Chi walked in quickly, saw Xin Feng lying on the Stone Bed, and nodded at him. "Are you doing okay?"

Xin Feng managed a smile in response. "I'm fine. Yan Lie might be in a worse condition than me."

"Then rest well. I'll go check on him."

After saying this, Yan Chi strode toward the sofa where Yan Lie was.

Hearing the commotion, Yan Lie also turned his head.

Because he was forcefully enduring the itching, his expression was not as relaxed as usual, and with many wounds on his body, he looked quite miserable.

Yan Chi felt immense heartache. "How did you get yourself into this state? If Father Beast and Mother saw this, I don't know how heartbroken they would be."

After Yan Chi finished speaking, Bai Wanwan felt a bit guilty and interjected from the side, "Big Brother, it's my fault. If it weren't for me, they wouldn't have been hurt like this."

Yan Lie immediately shook his head. "Wan Wan, how can you say it's your fault? It's clearly the fault of those Black Bears. Once I recover, I'm going to twist off their bear heads."

Yan Chi laughed in annoyance. "Then wait until you recover before saying that."

After saying this, he looked up at Bai Wanwan, who was standing to the side. "It's not your fault. Yan Lie is your Beast Husband; no matter the circumstances, he must put you first."

He paused, then added, "If you can't manage the caretaking, I'll stay here for these few days to help you."

Bai Wanwan breathed a sigh of relief. She was indeed spread too thin. If someone could help, she would feel much more at ease knowing that when she was comforting one Beast Husband, the other two would also be looked after.

"Then I won't stand on ceremony with you, Big Brother. I really do need your help."

Because all three Beast Husbands were in poor condition, Bai Wanwan sealed the house tightly and placed a heater inside.

Yan Chi kept turning his head to look, feeling very strange. Clearly, there was no fire burning, so why was the room so warm?

To make it easier for the Beast Husbands to recover, she had adjusted the temperature to be very high.

This allowed them to wear very thin clothing while covered with blankets, which was beneficial for wound recovery.

"Big Brother, please help me keep an eye on them. I'm going to go prepare their food first."

"No need. You stay and watch them; I'll go do that work."

Bai Wanwan shook her head with a smile. "I also need to check on Zhu Xiu next door. You just sit here."

After saying this, she turned and went next door.

Because Zhu Xiu was hibernating, she did not put a heater in the room next door.

She learned from Xin Feng that if a Snake Beastman entered hibernation, one should try not to wake him.

It was very beneficial for his physical functions and the improvement of his Innate Ability.

Therefore, she maintained a low temperature in the room, though it was still slightly warmer than the icy, snowy world outside.

Zhu Xiu was coiled into a ball with his head buried inside, so she couldn't see it clearly.

She could only raise her hand to stroke his snake tail, sensing his condition through the temperature and subtle vibrations.

Confirming that he was still doing well, she didn't leave immediately but sat cross-legged beside him.

Her palm stroked his tail repeatedly. "Zhu Xiu, let's not leave yet, okay? I want to settle the score with the Bear Clan myself!"

Once Zhu Xiu wakes up, she would first conceive a litter.

That damned Black Bear, having harmed several of her Beast Husbands like this—she simply couldn't swallow this anger!

Usually, if they didn't provoke her, anything was fine.

But the Bear Clan's actions had trampled all over her bottom line.

As long as she had enough points, she could vent this anger, so why wouldn't she take this revenge?

"You would agree with my idea too, right?" Bai Wanwan continued to talk to herself. "Then we'll wait until the Warm Season arrives and stay for a while longer before leaving..."

She sat with Zhu Xiu for quite a while, thinking of the few Males at home waiting to eat.

"Sleep well, I'll come back to keep you company later."

She got up and left the room, digging out the meat buried in the snow at the doorway.

She held a knife and cut the meat into chunks, stacking them all in the stone basin.

She used all her might but couldn't lift it.

It was Yan Chi who heard the commotion, walked over, saw it, and immediately stepped forward to help.

"Look at you, I told you to let me do it. Later, I'll take you to meet my Consort. She is also a very good Female; you two will surely have a lot to talk about when you meet."

Bai Wanwan nodded and smiled. "Okay, I will definitely go meet her next time."

That night, with Yan Chi's help, after Xin Feng and Yan Lie had a hearty meal, they also changed their medicine.

Xin Feng's injuries recovered extremely quickly, but Yan Lie couldn't sleep peacefully.

At night, fearing to disturb others, he kept enduring it without making a sound.

Bai Wanwan was worried about them and couldn't sleep soundly.

She was sleeping in the room with Zhu Xiu. After waking up in the middle of the night to relieve herself, she heard sounds from the room.

She turned her steps and, on tiptoe, moved toward where Yan Lie was.

When Bai Wanwan reached him, Yan Lie's body was trembling slightly.

She didn't say anything, just leaned down and hugged him tightly.

Although she didn't know exactly how itchy it was, when she saw those Females scratching their faces until they were ruined and being willing to drink manure water for several days,

it was clear how bone-piercing and heart-wrenching this itch was.

"Wan Wan, I'm fine, go back to sleep."

His voice was very low, and several notes were trembling.

Bai Wanwan shook her head. "I can't sleep, let me keep you company."

Yan Lie took a sharp breath. "Don't worry, it's not a big deal. This little thing is nothing for us Males; I'll just endure it and it will pass."

Later, Yan Lie couldn't speak anymore; he endured and endured, but still couldn't help scratching himself.

Bai Wanwan didn't stop him again. "If you're itchy, just scratch. I'll apply the medicine for you later."

The Healing Ointment would be applied in time, so it wouldn't leave scars, but this torture would still have to be endured for two more days.

Bai Wanwan stayed with him the whole time. Eventually, she could still hear his low groans, while her own consciousness gradually blurred.

In her daze, she seemed to feel a pair of arms pulling her into an embrace...

When she woke up, the room was already bright.

She discovered she was lying on the sofa, squeezing Yan Lie inside.

Before she fell asleep, she could still hear his suppressed sounds.

He was probably tortured all night and likely hadn't slept for long.

She moved her body gently to sit up, afraid of disturbing him.

Let him sleep a little longer if he could; only when asleep could he not feel that bone-piercing itch.

The two Males lying on the ground and the Stone Bed were not in the room, so Bai Wanwan walked out on tiptoe.

Xin Feng was already feeding meat strips to The Cubs, and Yan Chi was cutting meat.

Seeing her wake up, Xin Feng said gently, "My injuries are recovering very quickly, and I can get up to help you now."

Bai Wanwan walked over and squatted beside him. "There isn't much work to do at home. If you can lie down, you should stay lying down; you'll recover faster."

He didn't force himself. "Okay, if I can't hold up, I'll go rest."

Just as they were speaking, an urgent voice came from outside.

Adding updates is too difficult; I woke up in the morning and revised it a bit before updating!
