Surviving in the Beast World with a System-Chapter 170: Thank the Beast God

"Witch, our tribe has a new witch."

Yuan Qi didn’t beat around the bush and got straight to the point.

The unprepared witch was stunned. "Ye Duo... did that brat Ye Duo have a breakthrough?"

He shot to his feet, ready to head outside, but stopped after just two steps and turned back.

"That’s not right. Ye Duo has been in the tribe the whole time. How would you all know?"

Yuan Qi snorted in disdain. Ever since the celebration after Yuan Lang and the others returned from trading for salt, the relationship between his family and Ye Duo’s had been terrible.

The thought of Ye Duo being the one to successfully break through and become a witch today instantly made him feel like he’d eaten shit.

"It’s Wu Yue."

The witch froze upon hearing this. "You mean that young female who traded a Beast Crystal for her status?"

The Clan Leader nodded. "That’s the one."

Yuan Qi then recounted what happened in the deep forest, focusing on Wu Yue’s performance during the hunt. 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚

"I’ve also seen the witch medicine she concocted. It was pale yellow, but it was undoubtedly witch medicine."

The witch’s hands instantly began to tremble. "Thank the Beast God for his protection."

He had always been worried about the continuation of the witch’s lineage in the tribe, especially since other tribes already had Witch Disciples—and some were even set to become new witches after the Priest.

But today, his tribesmen had brought him some truly beast-heartening good news.

Unable to contain his excitement any longer, he stood up, full of vigor despite his age. "Take me to see our new witch."

With that, he started to walk out.

Yuan Qi grabbed the witch’s arm, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. "You’re still so impatient. Everyone is exhausted from the hunt, and the young female went straight back to sleep.

How about I go find her tomorrow and bring her to you?"

The witch calmed down a bit at that, but the joy on his face was impossible to hide.

"Right, right, the young female must be tired. Let her get some proper rest."

Only then did Yuan Qi turn to the other beastmen in the cave. "After revealing her identity as a witch, the young female made a request of us, which she hopes we will grant."

The witch waved his hand magnanimously. "As long as she isn’t asking to leave our Snow Tiger Tribe, we’ll agree to any other request."

With that, he walked deeper into the cave. "The young female is coming... What would be a good gift to give her?"

The beastmen looked at each other for a moment, then shook their heads, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

The Clan Leader looked at Yuan Qi curiously. "I wonder what request the young female made?"

Yuan Qi said gravely, "The young female said she hopes we can keep the news of her being a witch a secret."

The Clan Leader pondered for a moment. "Actually, that’s for the best. We already have one Witch Disciple. If another witch were to appear, it would be a bit much.

I agree to keeping this a secret. I believe the witch will agree too when he finds out."

The witch’s voice suddenly came from deeper within the cave. "I agree as well.

Those old coots from the other tribes aren’t trustworthy. If they find out a young female from our tribe has become a witch, they’ll definitely try to pull some tricks. You all need to be on your guard."

And so, an Advanced meeting of the tribe concluded just like that. As for the main topic of this Advanced meeting, our protagonist, Wu Yue, was currently fast asleep in her soft, grassy nest, snoring away.

What she didn’t know was that, thanks to Yuan Lang’s high-profile water-fetching route, the entire tribe now knew that he had fetched water for a young, Pure Human female.
