The taste of the bird that Xiong Ye had caught was really good. After rubbing it with spices and baking it in large leaves, the meat was extremely tasty. Not only that, it also carried traces of the leaves’ fragrance, making it difficult for anyone to stop eating once they started.

Xiong Ye had most likely caught the entire family of birds. He brought back a total of five birds, and still had four left after giving one to the children. The four birds were divided equally between him and Zhou Ji, so that each person had two.

Even if the two birds were stuffed with earth eggs, it still wasn’t enough for Xiong Ye to be full, but it was enough for now. After the two of them finished eating, Zhou Ji suggested, “Let’s go back to the cave. I’ll help you apply some medicine.”

Xiong Ye had been injured in the earlier fight, and there was a bite mark on his shoulder. Looking at it made Zhou Ji’s heart clench.

“Alright.” Xiong Ye nodded.

Back in their cave, Zhou Ji helped Xiong Ye deal with his wounds and then fed him some herbs before telling him to go to sleep.

After determining that Xiong Ye was asleep, he sent more energy into Xiong Ye’s body.

Therefore, the next day, Xiong Ye’s energy level was back at one hundred percent. He even went so far as to say to Zhou Ji, “Zhou Ji, I learned a lot of things from fighting with that person yesterday, and I even feel like I became a little stronger.” After a full night’s rest, not only had the energy in his body recovered, it had even increased!

“In that case, if you fight a few more times, won’t you become even stronger?” Zhou Ji asked.

Xiong Ye felt that Zhou Ji’s words made sense!

He hoped to become stronger than Zhu Zhan. Since that was the case, shouldn’t he fight a few more times against Zhu Zhan and his subordinates?

Zhou Ji didn’t say much else. He fried up a plate of smoked meat with chili peppers, then served it to Xiong Ye along with some vegetable soup and roasted earth eggs.

Xiong Ye’s mood lifted even more after he was satiated.

The person who had been beaten up by Xiong Ye yesterday and still had to go hunting with him today didn’t really want to speak to him anymore.

He had fought Xiong Ye yesterday, and the fight had lasted almost an hour. He had been so tired that he just wanted to lay down on the ground, and today he was sore all over. Yet over there, Xiong Ye looked like he was completely fine… It was really depressing.

Even Zhu Zhan couldn’t help but curiously sneak looks at Xiong Ye.

Xiong Ye was too resilient! He had been born in such a small tribe, yet he was able to become a low level Beast Warrior even at such a young age. If he had been born in a large tribe and trained well from a young age, his future would be limitless.

“What are you staring at me for?” Xiong Ye frowned as he looked at Zhu Zhan.

“I didn’t think that you would recover so soon… You’re very resilient.” Zhu Zhan said.

“That’s not it! Zhou Ji specifically helped me put herbs on my wounds and even brewed medicine for me!” Xiong Ye said.
