Chapter 989: Extra - Wen Ye Couple 5
The Five Great Tribes, despite being favored by the mighty Beastmen, face a hidden predicament behind their ability to awaken superpowers once their members come of age—difficulty in conceiving.
No one expected that just this once, the original host would actually become pregnant.
This was unheard of in the White Tiger Clan, unseen!
Typically, each White Tiger couple would go through several strenuous seasons before they could finally have a cub.
But Ye Qiao had mated with the chieftain just once and then, she was pregnant?
It was simply preposterous!
Although everyone found it hard to believe, the pregnant Ye Qiao was not fake.
As the months passed, the Beastmen could all sniff it out.
Especially the priest, who would beam with joy and display incomparable warmth whenever he saw Ye Qiao.
Perhaps because the original host was pregnant, the tribespeople became more tolerant of her, and when she caused mischief as usual, they no longer held her accountable.
As for why she would be locked up.
That was because a few days ago, when she wandered to the riverbank, she kicked over the Beast Skin carefully washed by the tribe’s females.
In addition, with the riverbank being slippery, she lost her footing, tumbling to the ground and gashing her forehead open, blood gushing out profusely.
At that moment, the tribe’s females were terrified and frantically called for the tribe’s priest Doctor, while urgently summoning the chieftain, who was out hunting, fearing something bad had happened to the original host.
When the original host woke up again, there was this gold chain on her foot.
Being unable to wander about anymore, the original host was annoyed, but due to her incomplete mental faculties, she couldn’t express her wishes, so she took the opportunity when a female came to deliver her food to bite down hard on her arm, drawing blood.
The female’s cries of pain brought the chieftain, but no matter how much he tried to appease her, the original host would not let go, leaving the chieftain with no choice but to knock the original host unconscious.
She had no recollection of the events that followed.
When she opened her eyes again, she had already become Ye Qiao.
With a helpless sigh.
Considering how quickly that little female ran off just now, she was probably afraid of another bout of madness.
"Gurgle gurgle..."
Her stomach continuously cramped, and the wound on her head throbbed dully due to the abruptness of sitting up earlier.
Ye Qiao slowly moved off the stone bed, which was only covered with a Beast Skin, and walked toward the Cave entrance, the length of the gold chain on her foot just allowing her to reach the Cave entrance.
At the Cave entrance was a huge, unrecognizable green leaf, on which lay several steaming pieces of Roast Meat, weighing about three or four jins, accompanied by two dew-covered fruit.
As Ye Qiao bent down to pick them up, her vision darkened and her head ached with a throbbing pain, extremely uncomfortable.
Enduring the discomfort, she picked up the food and returned to the stone bed.
Not knowing how long the original host had gone without food, Ye Qiao felt weak and powerless the moment she settled back on the bed.
The Roast Meat’s origin was unknown, and its gamey smell nauseated her slightly; it seemed like it had been seasoned only with salt, and honestly, the taste was far from good, but at least it was cooked food.
After taking only one bite, Ye Qiao could eat no more; she picked up the two fruits instead, finding them to be creamy and sweet, not cloying, and quite satisfying.
Unfortunately, there were just two fruits, and after finishing them, she could only say she wasn’t hungry, definitely not full.
Ye Qiao looked again at the remaining pieces of Roast Meat on the leaf and felt instantly deflated.
Forget it... better not to trouble herself any further.
Setting the Roast Meat aside, Ye Qiao lay back down on the stone bed.
She began to ponder a very serious problem.
