Gu Mengmeng glanced at him from the corner of her eye . “What do you want?”

It would be best if they could talk conditions .

She did not mind if Elvis killed Cole, but she cared about the fact that Cole was the only one who knew how to revive Chixuan .

“Kiss of the Ocean, Love of the Sky, Soul of the Forest, Heart of the Desert and Spirit of the Rocky Cliffs . ” Gu Mengmeng’s face darkened at Cole’s every word, until her face was completely black at the end of his sentence .

Cole chuckled and raised three fingers . “Be my female and stay by my side forever, at which I will give you everything in the world; find those items for me; or… . let that little wolf pup sleep on forever . Which will you choose?”

Gu Mengmeng clenched her fists tightly and glared at Cole . Her chest heaved and uncontrollable waves of her Beast King aura radiated from her body .

Elvis hurriedly moved over to Gu Mengmeng and held her tight . He did not care about Cole anymore .

“Xiao Meng, don’t get so agitated . Leave this to Lea and I to handle . ”

Elvis’ voice was like a warm trickling fountain by Gu Mengmeng’s ear, gradually calming down her emotions . She slowly relaxed her fists and stared frostily at Cole . “I will find these five items for you . But if you dare go back on your word… I will guarantee that you will end up in a state worse than death . ”

With that, Gu Mengmeng turned and left .

Elvis threw Cole one final glance before carrying Lea to chase after Gu Mengmeng .

Cole laid limp on the ground and gave a coughing laugh . Blood snaked down the corners of his lips and he casually wiped it off . He stared after Gu Mengmeng’s departing back profile, his eyes full of a determined resolution to win . He whispered . “In the end, you will still come back to my side… why do you want to go through all these and suffer so?”

…

Elvis had already arranged for most of the team to head towards Saint Nazaire first . Lea was gravely injured and not well enough to travel for a long distance .

As a result, Gu Mengmeng and company didn’t hurry back, but sought temporary shelter in a cave to allow Lea to recover .

The bonfire heated the cave until it was dry and Gu Mengmeng sat by the fire, gazing at the sheepish-looking Lea, as well as Elvis, who was sitting in silence beside Lea with a lowered head .

With a snap, Gu Mengmeng broke a wooden branch and threw it into the fire . That crisp sound gave the two males a right fright .

“Are you going to explain yourselves, or are you waiting for me to ask first?”

Elvis suddenly raised his head and stepped forward . “He came up with the idea, I am just the muscle . ”

Gu Mengmeng raised her brows with a cold smile . He had been so quick to shift the blame .

Lea struggled to sit up and put on a frail and pitiful look . He coughed a couple of times and said in a weak voice, “Mengmeng… it’s all my fault… cough… if you want to blame someone, just blame me…”

Gu Mengmeng gave them a fake, sweet smile and said, “It looks like during those years I was away, you two had become quite close and cooperative?”

Plan A had been spoiled…

Awkwardly, Elvis returned to his seat on the bed, while Lea also laid back obediently . It looked as if someone had pressed the rewind button, and they were back at their same positions three minutes ago .

Snap . Gu Mengmeng broke another branch in two and flung it into the fire . Her gentle voice held a hint of sinister threat . “Leniency to those who confess, severity to those who resist… oh~”

Elvis and Lea exchanged a glance . They knew that Mengmeng would never let them off if they didn’t reveal the truth .
