In the end, it all ca down to the Snow Tiger Tribe’s poor location.
The Clan Leader and the witch must have understood this problem better than she did. But since they hadn’t suggested finding a new territory, there had to be a reason.
’Right now, my words carry little weight. This isn’t sothing I can get involved in. I should just focus on my own tasks.’
"Co on. Let’s get the little cubs to my ho first. It’s still a bit cold, and they’re all soaked. They could easily catch a fever."
Hearing this, Qinghua’s expression imdiately turned serious.
In any tribe, the young cubs represented the future.
She nodded at Wu Yue. "I’ll go find the cubs’ fathers and Amus now and tell them to bring them over."
The parents were all deeply grateful when they heard Qinghua’s proposal.
But when they learned it was Wu Yue’s idea, they each brought so of the wild herbs or fruits they had managed to salvage from their hos.
Wu Yue had just finished arranging the straw beds in her ho when the parents arrived with their cubs. They stared at the beds, which covered a full half of the room.
Their eyes welled with tears. One by one, filled with gratitude, they handed the wild vegetables and fruits to Wu Yue.
"Yue, thank you so much."
"These are my family’s wild vegetables. They were next to the straw bed, so they didn’t get soaked in the muddy water."
"My family’s fruit, too. Our cub was holding it, so it’s still clean."
Looking at the simple, earnest faces of her fellow tribe mbers, Wu Yue felt a sudden warmth spread through her heart.
The smile on her face grew even more sincere. "I’ll accept everyone’s gifts. It’s still very damp outside, so even after you rebuild your own straw beds, they won’t be suitable for the cubs to sleep in right away.
I’ll use this food to make sothing delicious for the little ones."
As she spoke, she smiled and took an adorable little half-beast cub from the arms of a Pure Human female.
The little one was filthy from head to toe, but his chubby body showed that he was usually well taken care of.
A pair of fluffy white tiger ears drooped on his head, and he looked listless and lethargic.
Wu Yue saw this and felt his forehead.
Sure enough, the little one was running a fever.
"This little cub has a fever."
Hearing this, the Pure Human female’s face turned deathly pale. "A... a fever!"
The next mont, her eyes reddened. "What do I do... What am I going to do... SOB... It’s all my fault. If I’d known, I wouldn’t have brought him back."
The Pure Human female was instantly beside herself with panic.
Wu Yue stepped forward to comfort her. "Don’t panic. I have dicinal herbs here. I’ll have all the little cubs drink so later. After a good sleep, they’ll be back to their lively, bouncing selves."
The Pure Human female’s face, already streaked with tears, showed a flicker of surprised hope. Her voice, thick with emotion, held a trace of doubt. "Really? Will he really be okay?"
Wu Yue nodded. "Don’t worry. You all saw when I first ca to the tribe. When I was a cub, I ran a fever more often than I ate.
It was Amu who brewed herbal redies, and that’s how I got better. Otherwise, I never would have had the chance to beco a mber of this tribe with all of you."
As she said this, the tribespeople instantly recalled what Wu Yue looked like when she first arrived at the tribe—like a dried-out animal skeleton. They all nodded in agreent.
Wu Yue: "..."
’I’m just speechless...’
