Living in the Beast World With a System - Chapter 150

Wu Yue asked softly. The cave was weighed down by silence.

She remembered the system had once mentioned herbs that could treat burns.

Yuan Qi shook his head. “His injuries were caused by a feral beast with a gifted ability. Only medicine infused with Wu power can heal him. Ordinary herbs will make his wounds rot.”

Wu Yue was stunned. “Medicine made with Wu power?”

Yuan Qi nodded silently.

At that moment, the system’s voice sounded again, full of frustration. “Host, you must have been a terrible student in your last life. Wu medicine is made by infusing your Wu power into the medicine while preparing it. Understand?”

Wu Yue stared blankly. “How do you infuse it?”

“Why did I get stuck with such a slow-witted host? It’s just like when you practiced releasing your Wu power. Gather it, then pour it into the liquid, pill, or paste during preparation. That’s Wu medicine.”

Wu Yue nodded. “Then I’ll try. If it works, maybe I can save a beastman’s life.”

She stepped out of the cave, set up a simple stove, and placed her small stone pot on top.

Normally, releasing Wu power was easy. But now, each time she tried to infuse it into the medicine, it scattered.

Back in the cave, the mood remained heavy. By evening, the wounded beastman had developed a fever.

“We must leave tomorrow. His fever is getting worse. If we wait any longer, it will be too late.”

The beastmen spoke one after another with solemn voices.

Just then, Wu Yue entered with her face blackened, carrying the hot stone pot.

Yuan Lang, who had just returned from gathering fruit, rushed to take it from her hands. He frowned. “You should have called a beastman to carry this.”

Wu Yue pouted. She had no desire for another lecture. Beastmen were not meant for chores.

The bitter scent of the herbal mixture slowly spread through the cave, making everyone feel more alert.

The pot was placed on a nearby platform, and all eyes turned to it.

Yuan Qi asked, “Is this medicine?”

The unusual, invigorating scent seemed to energize everyone. He thought maybe they could all drink a little to recover.

Wu Yue smiled. “This is for the injured beastman.”

Yuan Qi frowned with a tired smile. “I know you mean well, but his wounds contain the energy of a gifted beast. Only Wu medicine can help.”

Wu Yue’s soot-covered face lit up with confidence, though no one could see it clearly.

“This is Wu medicine. I spent the whole afternoon working on it. It may not be as good as what a real Wu can make, but it should still help.”

Her clear voice echoed through the cave. The beastmen stared at her, stunned.

Teng Qian pinched his younger brother, then laughed awkwardly. “You’re saying this is Wu medicine?”

He jumped to his feet and headed for the cave entrance. “Did a Wu pass through here recently?”

He went to check. Yuan Lang followed, his eyes deep with thought.

Wu Yue, half amused and half exasperated, turned to Yuan Qi. “Uncle Yuan Qi, you’ve seen Wu medicine before. Why don’t you come take a look?”
