Xiuli's family and the clan leader all gathered in the witch doctor's cave, and Ji Nuan lay quietly in the cave.

Xiu Yan sat cross-legged on an animal skin at the entrance of the cave while the witch doctor treated his wounds. The cave was extremely quiet except for the sound of the witch doctor treating the wounds and the breathing of the animals.

The atmosphere was unusually heavy, and Ji Nuan's heart couldn't help but feel heavy.

It was all her fault for what happened today. She lost herself in the sight of the durian and had no sense of vigilance at all. If it weren't for Xiu Yan, she probably wouldn't be lying here unharmed right now.

And judging from the heavy expressions of the beasts, Xiu Yan's injury must be very serious. Thinking about the backward living standards and medical conditions here, and thinking about an unfamiliar beastman being seriously injured because of her, Ji Nuan felt as if something was grasping her heart tightly, and she felt sad and guilty, and extremely uncomfortable.

"Witch doctor, how is Xiu Yan's injury? Will he..." Ge Xing squatted down nervously and asked carefully with a bit of sadness.

The witch doctor applied the crushed herbs on Xiuyan's cleaned wound and wrapped it with animal skin.

Seeing the worry in the beasts' eyes, he finally sighed: "Xiu Yan's arm is broken!"

"What! Xiu Yan's hand is broken, so he is a useless beast!" When Manli heard her partner say that Xiu Yan was injured, she ignored the orcs who were guarding her and rushed into the witch doctor's cave. Unexpectedly, she heard that Xiu Yan's arm was broken.

With a broken arm, he would be just like those disabled orcs in the tribe, only able to gather some wild fruits, grind some stone tools, and get a little food every day that is not enough to fill his stomach. What's the use of having such a companion? Should I share my food to feed him?

When Ji Nuan heard the word "waste beast", her eyes turned red with anger. She had never wished so much as at that moment that she could stand up and slap this hateful female hard.

Ge Rou looked at Manli with red eyes, who was looking disappointed. She grabbed her fur skirt tightly with both hands to control herself from rushing forward.

"Manli, my son Xiuyan won't be able to hunt in the future, so let's forget about you two getting married!" I was worried that Manli would make a big fuss before, but now that Xiuyan's son has encountered such a thing, I'm afraid Manli would rather there is no marriage.

Sure enough, Manli's eyes flashed with relief when she heard this, and she pretended to be sad and wiped away her non-existent tears: "Well, since Aunt Rou and Prince Xiu Yan don't want to get married, then I won't force it.

Well, I am still receiving punishment, so I will go back first. "

After saying this, he turned around and left without any reluctance, running so fast as if there was some terrifying beast chasing him.

Watching Manli leave, Ge Rou's emotions finally collapsed. She threw herself on Xiu Yan's side, hugged his uninjured arm and burst into tears. Tears flowed down her cheeks and wet the animal skin beneath her.

Ge Rou's tears dripped onto his arms, and his slender eyelashes trembled. He pursed his thin lips and said, "Mom, don't cry. I still have sharp teeth and I won't be hungry."

Xiu Yan just turned 35 this year and is already an adult male. The cave where he lives alone has been dug a long time ago, and he has been moving things into it over the past few days.

After becoming an adult, the beastmen build their own caves to live in. They have to rely on themselves for food and living and can no longer accept help from their father and mother beastmen. Now that he has lost an arm, Xiu Yan knows that his future life will be very difficult.
