Chapter 449: Mother

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

This was a small tribe mixed with many beasts. Xi Fei had been here once before.
As far as he could remember, although this tribe was very small, they were very hospitable. Every guest who came here would be warmly received by them. Therefore, the caravans who often walked this route would come here to rest for a moment when they passed by and exchange goods with the beasts here.
This small tribe also relied on this method to live quite comfortably.
Huanhuan’s and Xi Fei’s caravan arrived. Immediately, a kangaroo mother appeared to receive them and led them to the small wooden hut specially used to receive guests.
The kangaroo mother’s name was Yueyue. There were three little joeys in the pouch in front of her stomach. The little ones popped their heads out of the pouch and leaned over the edge, looking at the guests with wide, curious eyes.!!
Xi Fei took out three round sugar balls for the joeys.
The sugar balls were made of milk and honey. They were sweet and loved by the children and females.
Sugar balls were only sold in Rock City. Every time Xi Fei went to Rock City, he would specially exchange some sugar balls and sell them to the beasts of other tribes to earn the difference.
The joeys were overjoyed to get the sugar balls and immediately hugged and licked them.
The kangaroo mother thanked them repeatedly and specially brought them freshly cooked jerky and freshly picked sweet fruits.
Huanhuan asked her if there was a beast soldier camp nearby.
Yueyue smiled and said, “That’s right. Not far south, there’s a beast soldier camp. Those beast soldiers sometimes bring animal hides to our tribe to exchange for living supplies. Our tribe is quite familiar with them. If you want to take a look at the camp, I can get my male beast to bring you there.”
Huanhuan politely declined her kindness, indicating that there was no need.
After midnight, everyone fell asleep.
Huanhuan got up quietly and left the cabin alone.
After leaving the tribe, she flew south.
The system asked, “Are you worried about Big Goody?”
As she flew, Huanhuan said, “Yes, she’s injured. I don’t know if there’s a witch doctor in the camp. It’ll be bad if her wounds aren’t treated properly and she gets infected.”
The system sighed. “Mothers always worry the most about their children.”
“Of course. After all, they’re my blood and flesh.”
The system said, “Yes, you’re also a piece of me. Every time I see you, I feel like it’s especially tough for me.”
Huanhuan said, “When did I become your flesh? You’re not my mother!”
“I’ve been a mother and a father for all these years. It wasn’t easy for me to raise you. I’m not your mother. I’m better than your mother!”
Huanhuan was speechless.
It didn’t take long for her to see the beast soldiers’ camp.
There was a circle of fortifications outside the camp. Huanhuan easily flew over and landed above the largest tent in the camp.
She cut a small hole in the tent flap with her fingernail.
Through the small hole, she saw what was happening in the tent.
Shuang Yin was lying on a hide blanket. Her wounds had been bandaged, but she didn’t look well. Her pale face was tinged with an almost sickly red.
It was obvious at a glance that she was running a fever.
The wounds must be infected.
There was no witch doctor in the camp. There was only a young beast soldier who had undergone medical training in Rock City. His name was Little Bear, and he had only recently been transferred to this camp. He had obviously never been in such a tricky situation before. He was completely at a loss as to what to do. He was so anxious that he was about to cry.
Huanhuan was worried about Big Goody’s body. She immediately landed on the ground, lifted the curtain, and walked into the tent.
When Little Bear saw an unfamiliar beast suddenly barge in, he immediately questioned, “Who are you? This is not a place for you to be at. Get out!”
Huanhuan ignored his reprimand and pushed him aside. She strode to Shuang Yin’s side.
She reached out and touched Shuang Yin’s forehead. It was indeed hot.
Shuang Yin was already in a daze from the fever. Her eyes were half-open, and she couldn’t tell who was in front of her. She was mumbling, “Mom, Mom…”
Huanhuan felt her heart clench when she heard her call out to her.
Huanhuan tightened her grip. “Don’t be afraid. Mom’s right here.”
Little Bear tried to keep Huanhuan away from the princess, but he was no match for her. He couldn’t even get close to her.
In the end, Little Bear had no choice but to run out and call for help.
Huanhuan found a cotton handkerchief, soaked it, and applied it to Shuang Yin’s forehead. Then, she untied the cotton bandage on her body and found that the wounds were indeed infected. They looked red and swollen.
At this moment, Little Bear had already rushed into the tent with the beast soldiers.
“This is the beast who barged in and touched the princess!”
When the beast soldiers learned that this guy actually dared to bully the princess, they were especially angry and immediately wanted to attack Huanhuan.
Huanhuan turned her head and glanced at them. Her cold gaze made them freeze in place.
A powerful force spread, crushing them.
This was the suppression of an expert.
In an instant, the beast soldiers knew that this beast was not to be trifled with.
Huanhuan said, “Bring a few crispy fruits over. Hurry!”
The beast soldiers were very unwilling, but as Huanhuan’s aura increased, so did the pressure on them. They were almost unable to straighten their backs. It became extremely difficult to breathe, and their faces turned red.
Against the pressure, Little Bear asked, “Why do you want crispy fruits?”
“To save your princess, of course.”
Little Bear continued to ask, “How do you know that crispy fruits can save Her Highness? Do you know medicine?”
Huanhuan was a little impatient. “I told you to get the crispy fruits. Hurry up and get them. If you continue talking nonsense, I’ll throw you all out!”
In the end, the beast soldiers followed her instructions and brought over a few crispy fruits.
Huanhuan wiped the wounds on Shuang Yin’s body clean, chewed the crispy fruits, and smeared the pulp evenly over the wounds. She then bandaged the wounds again with a clean cotton bandage.
“Do you have wine?”
“Wine?” Little Bear didn’t understand. “What do you want that for?”
“Just do as I say! Why are you talking so much nonsense?!”
Little Bear’s face turned red from anger, but the other party was powerful. He could not refute her and could only bring over a jar of fruit wine dejectedly.
Over the years, fruit wine had been popularized. Some smart beasts had even figured out a way to make fruit wine themselves. Fruit wine was very common on the beast continent now, so there was naturally a lot in the camp.
Huanhuan tasted some fruit wine. The concentration was not high, but it was better than nothing.
She smeared the wine on Shuang Yin’s joints and used its volatile properties to help Shuang Yin cool down.
Little Bear kept staring at her, afraid that she would do something to harm the princess.
