Zhou Ruanruan nestled lazily in her beastly husband's arms and said indifferently, "Perhaps, that paralysis is fake?"
"impossible."
The priest suddenly walked over, frowned, and said decisively, "I've seen that kid's body. Several of his bones are broken. How could he recover so quickly?"
"Go and call the patrol team leader over."
The clan chief shouted with a gloomy expression.
Inside the cave, everyone had different expressions, but the priestess thought of another possibility. She murmured to herself, "Impossible... How could this be?"
A moment later, a burly male orc strode over. Seeing the chieftain lying weakly on the stone bed, he raised his hand and bowed deeply. "Chieftain, I apologize. I only discovered this morning that two of my brothers had been unconscious all night."
"Qiang Ke, go find out where Lin Ye and his son are, and inquire whether any of your clansmen have seen them. Even if Jiang Cha didn't make the poison under my bed, it must be related to that old bastard Lin Ye!"
"Yes, clan chief."
Jangk is the captain of the tribe's patrol team, responsible for the safety of the tribe's people.
Before the deep winter arrives each year, some wandering orcs would roam outside the tribe, stealing their food and abducting their females.
Qiang Ke inherited his father's job and only became the captain in the last two years. He only appears when something big happens and usually likes to slack off.
He was also one of Liuli's beast husbands, but he wasn't really willing to be one.
Seeing him leave without any mercy, the clan chief thought of his daughter beside him and frowned, saying, "Have you two not made up yet?"
Liuli said irritably, "He doesn't want to share a room with me except when he's in heat. He has a terrible temper."
The clan chief was about to give his daughter a piece of his mind, but the priest interrupted him before he could finish speaking.
"No wonder... I said I wanted to check on that kid's health, but they wouldn't let me. He must have already been cured by that girl Jiang Cha, right?"
Is her medical skill really that amazing?
Liuli looked disdainful.
"And...none of the cubs she gave birth to ever got sick."
The priest ignored Liuli's jealous words and paced anxiously back and forth in the cave. "With her superb medical skills and the ability to give birth to so many healthy cubs, Jiangcha could definitely bring even greater value to the tribe. It's a pity..."
The clan chief listened to her rambling and felt a little regretful; he hadn't offered enough as a bargaining chip.
“Grandma Ragu, now that Jiang Cha has left, what’s the point of saying anything more? I think she and that wolf king probably knew each other a long time ago, and they’re in cahoots to do business.”
Zhou Ruanruan's gentle voice did not soothe the clan leader's inner turmoil; instead, it made him even angrier.
"Then the injuries on my body must have been caused by them too!"
High Priest Ragu sighed and closed his eyes. They still hadn't realized the immeasurable value of ginger tea.
The Rat Mountain tribe is probably really going to decline.
Liuli had long hated ginger tea, and now she chimed in, "Father, then you should hand over the ginger tea; that would be to their liking!"
The chieftain snorted coldly and forced himself to sit up. "So what if they are wolf clan? I have a sister who married the captain of the snake clan patrol team. They have long harbored resentment towards the wolf clan."
"I'll just say that our little female was forcibly taken away by the wolves, and ask them to help me get her back. As a reward, I'll have Ruan Ruan give birth to the snake king's offspring."
The cave was filled with a strong smell of medicine. Zhou Ruanruan couldn't help but cover her mouth and nose and said in a muffled voice, "Chieftain, what a great plan. Ruanruan will listen to you."
High Priest Ragu remained silent. The Holy Mother's fertility was indeed quite high, but it paled in comparison to Ginger Tea. If the Serpent Clan went back on their word and turned around to cause trouble for them, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Just as she was about to leave, she saw Zhou Ruanruan lying on her beastly husband, vomiting several times to the side.
"Are you... pregnant?"
The high priest, who was already in low spirits, immediately went over to examine Zhou Ruanruan upon seeing this.
Liuli asked softly, "Is it my aunt? I haven't seen her for years, and I wonder how she's been doing lately."
"It is said that she gave birth to two snake cubs and is raising them diligently in the Black Snake Clan. I will send someone to deliver a message to her now."
The clan chief didn't dare to contact them in previous years because his sister hadn't been able to get pregnant and was reportedly having a hard time. Now, however, things have finally turned around for her.
After he finished speaking, he fixed his gaze on the high priest and Zhou Ruanruan.
"Really pregnant?"
High Priest Ragu suddenly smiled and nodded emphatically: "Yes, more than one."
She was somewhat relieved. Although she had lost ginger tea, the tribe was fortunate to have the Holy Mother, and her pregnancy at this time was a blessing from the Beast God.
Liuli: "That's great! Ruan Ruan truly lives up to her title as the Holy Mother; she's pregnant so quickly. Jiang Cha is just an ordinary female; how can she compare to Ruan Ruan? That wolf king really has no taste!"
The chieftain's face flushed with excitement; the tribe had finally received good news.
"Ruanruan, you should rest well at home recently. I will send two more females over to take care of you. Please take good care of your health."
Zhou Ruanruan nodded with a smile, then lazily yawned before letting her beastly husband carry her away.
Indeed, pregnancy is the most appealing thing!
