If you have no creature cards in your graveyard, the target creature gets -0/-0, and it will still be exiled if it would die this turn.

10/5/2018·wotc

Necrotic Wound's replacement effect will exile the target creature if it would die this turn for any reason, not just immediately after Necrotic Wound resolves.

10/5/2018·wotc

The value of X is determined only as the undergrowth ability resolves. If the number of creature cards in your graveyard changes later in the turn, the target creature is unaffected.
