CHAPTER 768: [747] BEAST WORLD FARMING 57 (1 UPDATE)

"What exactly happened during those previous days when she was unconscious, she had no idea, but this time she experienced firsthand what it meant to have a fate worse than death: one moment shivering so badly her teeth chattered, and the next overheating as though she were in a sauna, drenched in sweat despite having just bathed."

She had been in the Beast World for two or three years now and had never endured such suffering!

By the time Beining returned, she had already slumped to one side, gasping for air and shaking uncontrollably.

As soon as Beining touched her arm, he was burnt by her fever, and his face changed color instantly.

"How come the fever has started again? Is your body too weak?"

Tangtang glanced up at him and felt more convinced that there was a reason this man remained single at the age of sixty-six. Compared to her Beastmen, this male’s incompetence was laughably straightforward.

She thought he would go fetch her some medicine, but instead, he laid out his beast skin in another corner, not close to her, then took the pork knuckle out of the water, began gnawing on it with relish, and afterwards, lay down on the beast skin to sleep.

She curled the corner of her mouth, swearing under her breath, and enduring the discomfort in her body, she washed and stuffed the herbs she had just found into her mouth.

She had no idea if it was effective; all she knew was that she felt groggy and thirsty, and she would lean over the hot spring to scoop up some water to drink. She wasn’t even sure if the water was safe to drink, but with him around, it was her only option.

After drinking too much water, she even had to venture outside to relieve herself, only to find that her beast skin shoes had vanished.

With no other choice, she had to walk barefoot to do her business.

After she was done, she continued to huddle in the corner and tremble. Thanks to the four buns in her stomach, she wasn’t feeling hungry; it was just that her respiratory tract was very uncomfortable. By midnight, an incessant cough set in, and an itch in her throat kept her coughing non-stop, so much so that it irritated Beining, who tossed and turned and then turned his back on her, ignoring her.

His behavior was much like a man annoyed by a crying child, turning away and refusing to look after the child.

The more Tangtang looked at Beining, the angrier she got. There was no harm without comparison. "You’re so powerful and high-ranking, but you’re incapable of showing compassion. No wonder you can’t find a wife." But as much as she cursed, she knew she had to figure out a way to escape.

Considering that he didn’t seem to react when she went out earlier, would he still remain unresponsive if she left now?

But when she thought of the icy world outside, she feared she wouldn’t even be able to find her way, let alone safely make it back to the Nandi Clan.

However, Beining was unlike other Beastmen, and although he showed no interest in her now, it didn’t mean he wouldn’t be interested once she recovered. To avoid harm, she still needed to find a way to leave. And yet, reality told her the only viable option now was to conserve her strength and wait for spring. Besides the wild beasts outside, Beining might also catch up with her at any moment.

Tangtang ventured to move but ultimately nestled back into her own fur. Little did she know that after she fell asleep, her high fever persisted, wracking her body with convulsions.

Her sudden onset was so alarming that Beining wrapped her up again and carried her to the tribe’s Witch Doctor. No one knew how much bitter concoction and medication she was forced to swallow, but whatever was done, it didn’t seem to work. Her temperature did not drop; instead, she convulsed and frothed at the mouth. The Witch Doctor looked at her state and shook his head at Beining.

"She’s done for. This female’s body is too weak. Many females in our tribe have died this way, she’s not worth saving. You, bury her!"

Rejected by the Witch Doctor, Beining couldn’t believe that the female he had taken so much effort to bring back was just going to die?

He was somewhat at a loss and brought her back to his hut. Since she was not going to make it, there was no point in going by the hot spring anymore, especially since it was a distance from the tribe.

At that time, the female’s breathing had become extremely weak. Presumably, by the time he awoke the next morning, she would be frozen stiff, and he could then bury her.

Thus, he wrapped her up in the beast skin and threw her into a corner, no longer bothering about her, and took care of his own needs by eating his meat. Once full, he went to sleep in his hideaway.

Liang Tian in the space watched in shock as the Beastman threw Tangyuan aside to await death, cursing lowly.

"I hope you’ll be single for the rest of your life. Pah, what a piece of crap, serves you right for being alone!"

Because of a meteorite, her previous life had ended prematurely, and the space had reverted to factory settings. If she were to just die like this, not only would she lose the chance of reincarnating, but the System he embodied would be directly decommissioned, with no opportunity to ascend. Was that acceptable to him?
