"Chief, what kind of fruit is a chestnut? How come we've never seen it before?"
A beastman voiced his question, and several others immediately echoed him.
"It's the Spike Fruit!"
On hearing Gaiyin's answer, the crowd fell silent.
Su Tang also suppressed the palpitations she had felt when Gaiyin had hugged her, ready to dispel everyone's doubts.
"When Spike Fruit ripens, its shell becomes fragile. It may look scary, but actually, a little force can break it!"
A female beastman asked in disbelief, "Really? In our tribe, a cub was once injured by a Spike Fruit and bled heavily. He eventually went to see the Beast God."
Another female chimed in, "Yes, I remember it was Yuanyuan's younger brother!"
Su Tang was surprised and turned her gaze to Yuanyuan. In the afternoon when Yuanyuan mentioned this incident, she didn't bring this up.
Yuanyuan nodded sadly, and Su Tang didn't feel right to ask further.
