Healing a Fallen S-Rank Beastman: Everyone Fights Over the Little Female Chapter 222: Treatment

Lu Xiao’s words were sincere, inspiring an inexplicable sense of trust.

Shield looked at the young female before him and didn’t hold back. "We’re feeding him the tribe’s last few Crystal Fruits, but we’re not witch doctors. We can’t actually unleash the fruits’ power."

Surprised that the Canghe Tribe still had fruits left, Lu Xiao’s interest was imdiately piqued. "Can I see one of the fruits later?"

She was genuinely interested.

Shield didn’t refuse. If Lu Xiao could truly heal Hunt, the entire tribe would revere her as their witch doctor. In that case, the Crystal Fruits would naturally be hers to use.

Lu Xiao was pleased with his straightforwardness.

She looked toward the window at the completely feral beastman. His condition was even more severe than Regal’s.

"Hey, can you hear ?" Lu Xiao asked, taking a tentative step forward.

Seeing this, the Er Li locked inside the wooden house imdiately opened its mouth and hissed, its intent a clear warning.

Seeing this, Shield worried that Lu Xiao would be frightened. The tribe’s females rarely ca to this area. Even though Hunt was locked up and chained, they were still terrified of him.

"He can’t get out. He’s chained up inside."

After he spoke, Shield realized that Lu Xiao hadn’t backed away at all.

It made Shield realize that this young female was even braver than he had imagined.

"Can you hold him for a mont? I need to touch his forehead." The Er Li before her was obviously on high alert; she knew that even if she reached out suddenly, a surprise attempt likely wouldn’t be very effective.

She couldn’t control a ferocious beast like this on her own—she wasn’t that arrogant.

Without asking why, Shield walked over and firmly gripped the Er Li’s head.

For a mont, the Er Li inside seed stunned by the sudden move, but he quickly started to struggle. However, Shield’s grip was powerful, and with the beastman already in restraints, he couldn’t break free at all.

Lu Xiao didn’t waste the opportunity. She stepped forward and quickly tapped him on the forehead, sending a Purification Seed into his Spirit Sea.

The mont she finished the action and pulled back her hand, the struggling Er Li abruptly froze. His wide, bestial eyes narrowed into vertical slits. An instant later, his eyelids fluttered shut and his body went limp.

Shield, who was still holding him, felt Hunt’s body change. Startled, he quickly looked at Lu Xiao. "What did you do to him? What happened?"

Even when they used Crystal Fruits on him, Hunt had never once passed out. He seed to have limitless energy, never needing to sleep or eat, just constantly burning through his reserves until his body gave out and he was worn to death.

But now, this young female had rely tapped Hunt’s forehead, and he had gone limp and fallen into a deep sleep.

He knew it was sleep because he could hear a purr rumbling in Hunt’s throat.

Shield gently lowered Hunt’s head, but even then, he didn’t wake.

Shield looked at Lu Xiao in disbelief, hoping for an explanation.

"I’m just treating him. My power is limited, so for now, I can only do a little at a ti. Letting him rest first might improve his condition. As for how I did it... that’s my secret."

When she finished, Shield nodded and didn’t press further. He knew very well that every witch doctor had their own secrets, and it was forbidden to pry.

In fact, it was remarkable that Lu Xiao had explained that much at all. In the tribe, females held a higher status than males, and a female witch doctor’s status was above all else.

Their position was second only to the female chief, yet they were even more loved and respected by the tribe’s people.

After witnessing her abilities, Shield’s respect for Lu Xiao grew.

Bringing Lu Xiao here had been a test. Now that she had passed, Shield no longer hesitated. "I will take you to see the chief," he said. "I’ll bring you the Crystal Fruits afterward."

Lu Xiao did not refuse.

Before they left, Shield posted a guard, ordering them to find him the mont Hunt woke up.

Having given his instructions, Shield led Lu Xiao away.

The chief of the Canghe Tribe lived in a treehouse. After they climbed up to it, they saw an elderly female with salt-and-pepper hair watering flowers from a wooden bucket.

Hearing the noise, she looked over. "Shield, you’re here. Is this the new friend they said arrived in the tribe today? What a beautiful young female. And I hear you’re a witch doctor?"

Lu Xiao was about to answer, but Shield spoke first, recounting how she had treated Hunt.

After listening, the old chief’s gaze on Lu Xiao grew more serious. "To have such ability at your age is truly impressive. If you can really heal Hunt, the Canghe Tribe will be sure to reward you and your friends handsoly."

"I will do my best, but I can’t guarantee the outco right now. Please be prepared for that, Chief." Lu Xiao didn’t want them to build her up into so kind of myth, so she felt it was necessary to temper their expectations.

The old chief simply laughed. "I’ve never t a young female as humble as you. I understand. Don’t worry. Regardless of the outco, your willingness to try is enough for us. Let Shield take you back. Take good care of your companions. Anything you need that we can provide, we will give it to you."

"My mate is injured. I need so dicine. Do you have anything here for treating external wounds?"

"We have so dicine for external wounds. I’ll have Shield bring it to you."

"Alright. Thank you."

’As long as they have dicine, things will be much easier.’

As they left the treehouse, Shield spoke. "You’re going to treat the white wolf. It might not be my place to say this, but I hope you’re prepared. His leg is broken. Even if he recovers and survives, it will affect his ability to hunt in the future. If he’s your only mate, you’ll likely have to take care of him."

Lu Xiao understood the implication behind Shield’s words. Knowing he ant well, she smiled at him. "He was injured saving . Even if he can never walk again, I won’t abandon him."

eting the young female’s determined gaze, Shield realized that Lu Xiao couldn’t be compared to other females.

She was very special.

Even though they had only known each other for a short ti, he could sense that she was different.

As they spoke, Shield led Lu Xiao to the wooden house the tribe had provided for them.

The mont Fred saw them return, he rushed over. "Lady Lu Xiao, are you alright?"

As he asked, Fred’s gaze on Shield was full of wariness.

Lu Xiao gave him a reassuring smile. "I’m fine. I just t with the chief. We can stay here for the ti being. Don’t worry, Fred, they don’t an us any harm. Where’s Ares?"
