Chapter 23 Xuan Ba ​​Qi Protects His Wife

Ling Yu almost laughed in anger. Wherever Lin went, she seemed to be going against her.

Lin knew better than anyone whether she was a witch doctor or not; she had already proven it in the cave last time, not only pointing out the symptoms of several males but also helping her father detoxify.

Lin clearly knew that Xuan wouldn't come to vouch for her, so she deliberately brought Xuan up.

"Lin, you can take your grudges out on me. But right now, there's a rampant epidemic in the tribe, and everyone must take their medicine as soon as possible to prevent it!"

Everyone looked at Ling Yu in surprise as she said these words.

When did she become so sympathetic to the tribe, showing such a broad-minded and generous attitude? Before, she was the type who would fight and steal food from others just to get one more bite, and then call them greedy.

"Hmph! Stop trying to make yourself look good! I'm only thinking about the safety of the entire tribe."

Lin stared coldly at Ling Yu.

Pear couldn't stand it anymore and stepped forward to explain urgently, "Lin, I really was infected last night. Yu was right, females can also be infected."

"I couldn't eat dinner, my whole body was burning up, and my skin was sore, like ants were biting me. It was only after drinking the herbal soup that Yu brought me that I felt better..."

"I don't care about any of that! You're just making things up without any evidence! You're just helping Yu lie!"

Pear was so angry that her eyes turned red. How could Lin be so mean?

She had heard from others that Lin was the most beautiful female in the tribe, friendly and gentle, while Yu was the opposite of Lin, ugly, greedy and selfish.

But right now, it's clearly Lin who's being selfish!
"I didn't lie..." she said, her voice trembling with tears.

"Forget it, Pear. It's not that people don't believe you, it's that they don't believe me."

Ling Yu gently comforted her, realizing she had underestimated the original owner's infamous reputation within the tribe.

There are seven days left until the task deadline.

They'll understand once they suffer the consequences; why waste words here?
"Since that's the case, I've taken up your time. Please leave. If you have symptoms like a dry throat, fever, or chills, you can come to me for medicine, and I'll teach you how to prepare it."

After saying that, she pulled on the pear, wanting to go back.

Ke Lin, however, sneered and blocked her way, saying sarcastically, "Who gave you permission to leave?"

"What do you mean?"

Ling Yu frowned in displeasure. What was she planning to do now?
Lin suddenly raised her hand and said sharply, "Arrest Yu! Take her away!"

Soon, two females rushed up and pinned Ling Yu down without saying a word.

"What are you doing?"

Ling Yu resisted angrily, but despite her plump appearance, she was not strong and could not push the two away at all.

Pear hurriedly stopped the two people and asked urgently:
"Lin, what are you doing, grabbing Yu?"

Lin stared coldly at Ling Yu and said loudly to everyone, "Yu privately persuaded the tribespeople to eat unknown herbs in an attempt to poison them and endanger the tribe's safety. She should be arrested and interrogated!"

She wouldn't let anyone know that this fat bastard knows witchcraft.

If Yu's medicine can truly cure this epidemic, not only will Yu's reputation surpass hers, but the clan leader's prestige will also rise.

Her and the Grand Elder's status would decline.

This must never be allowed to happen!
"take away!"

At a command, the two females tried to forcibly pull Ling Yu away.

Ling Yu struggled desperately. Her father was still not fully recovered. If Lin captured her and poisoned her, who would know?

"Let me go! Lin, what right do you have to take me away? What gives you the right!"

Then, a loud crack!
Lin slapped her hard across the face, angrily saying, "I have the right! Who told you to be the most useless piece of trash in the tribe!"

Ling Yu's face burned with pain, and she could taste blood in her mouth.

Lin hit herself hard.

No matter how much she struggled, she couldn't push these people away. The physical strength the system gave her was only enough to resist being forcibly dragged away.

"Are you just going to watch her take me away? I was just kindly distributing herbs for your sake..."

She tried to get people to help her, but apart from Pear, no one spoke up for her; they just stood by and watched the farce unfold.

Lin is the eldest elder's daughter, and she usually behaves very properly.

Although his language has improved somewhat, who knows what his true nature is like? What if he turns back into that bully again in a couple of days?
They're not going to get involved in this mess!

"Yu, you see? Someone like you thinks you can win everyone over? You're dreaming! Nobody will trust you, and nobody will in the future..."

Lin stepped forward triumphantly and grabbed Ling Yu's hair, her expression full of provocation.

But the next second, a fiery and angry voice rang out from behind: "Stop it right now!" Before Lin could react, she was violently grabbed and thrown away.

The onlookers quickly moved away when they saw this, and Lin fell hard, her face contorted in pain.

"Who! Who dares to hit me!"

She was helped up by two females and glared angrily at the person who had just barged in.

The next second, his expression changed.

mysterious?!

When Xuan saw Lin bullying Ling Yu, he threw Lin away without thinking and pulled Ling Yu in front of him.

Seeing her swollen and red cheeks, I felt a little anxious.

"Are you an idiot? You don't even fight back when someone hits you?!"

I don't know where the strength came from when I did that to him, but in front of others he was weak, pitiful and bullied!
Ling Yu looked up at the angry yet worried man in front of her. His complexion had returned to normal, and he was clearly cured.

It seems the person who has proven themselves has finally arrived.

She forced a smile and said softly, "I'm fine. Thank you for helping me."

Xuan's brows furrowed even more!

The female's teeth were bleeding, and she still said she was fine? A surge of anger welled up inside him!
"Stupid! Absolutely stupid!"

He said through gritted teeth, really wanting to pry open this female's brain to see what was inside.

"Xuan~ How could you hit me!"

Lin stomped her foot in anger, but didn't forget to make her voice sound affected and pretentious.

Xuan turned around, grabbed Ling Yu's shoulder, pulled her into his arms, and stared coldly at Lin:
"Then why did you hit my female?"

This action and these protective words immediately shocked everyone present!
The sun comes out in the west? !
Xuan, who always had a bad temper and disliked Ling Yu, was actually hugging Yu? And even helping her vent her anger? He hit Lin?!

Lin was so jealous her eyes almost popped out!

Why?! Why is Xuan protecting that ugly woman?! And even embracing her? Doesn't he find it disgusting?

“I hit her because she tried to poison the tribe with those unknown herbs. I did it for the tribe!”

Lingyu immediately whispered, "These herbs are the medicine I gave you last night. I was afraid the epidemic would spread widely in the tribe, so I wanted to distribute these herbs to everyone. But Lin said I was poisoning everyone."

She was held in Xuan's arms, feeling shy and nervous in front of so many people; it seemed like they were showing off their affection.

Yet, a touch of sweetness and excitement welled up inside her.

It feels so good to be protected and trusted like this.

Xuan watched as the female muttered an explanation, and although he was clearly very angry, his icy expression unconsciously softened.

This guy is actually thinking about the tribe's safety, instead of just trying to please him?

She seems to have really changed a lot.

“I can testify that Yu’s medicine can cure the disease, and I am now completely cured! She absolutely had no intention of poisoning the tribe!”

Xuan raised his chin, his arrogant gaze sweeping over everyone present.

Everyone stared curiously at Xuan's expression.

He had indeed recovered; his voice was strong and his emotions were stable. He didn't look like a sick person at all; he was clearly full of energy!
Could what Yu said be true? Can she cure diseases?

Immediately afterwards, a shout rang out: "Something terrible has happened! Mei and several other females have been infected! Everyone, please don't gather together, go back home immediately!"

This time! Everyone looked at Ling Yu in shock!

She was actually right?!
Not just males, but females can also be infected?!
