Elvis nodded his head honestly and replied, “Yeah, we don’t know.”
Lea stood behind them and really wanted to paw him to death.
Gu Mengmeng shrugged her shoulders and laughed, sitting on the ground softly without any energy. She raised her head at Elvis and the next moment, tears welled up in her eyes.
Elvis was stunned and he immediately went forward to hug Gu Mengmeng, “What’s wrong? Why did you suddenly cry? If you’re angry, you can pull my ears. I promise you, I won’t dodge, alright?”
Gu Mengmeng pushed Elvis away with all her might and pointed at his nose, asking, “Say, do you like me or my identity as a messenger of the Beast Deity?”
Elvis answered with a confused expression, “You’re the messenger of the Beast Deity.”
Gu Mengmeng stomped both her feet and retorted, “What if I wasn’t? What if the real messenger of the Beast Deity arrives clad in unicorn-scaled armor treading on seven-colored clouds? Will you not want me and not treat me well anymore? Sob sob sob… Elvis, you actually don’t love me right? You just mated with me because you think that I’m the messenger of the Beast Deity, right?”
Elvis was completely dumbfounded. He tilted his head to look at Lea who was preparing to sneak away quietly, calling him out, “Go and explain to Xiao Meng, tell her, she’s the messenger of the Beast Deity.”
Lea sighed and patted Elvis’s shoulder, saying, “Elvis, you really deserve it.”
Elvis completely did not understand how did things develop to this step, wasn’t it originally all fine? Under normal circumstances, when the First Partner magnanimously welcomed new members to join them, shouldn’t females feel happy? Why did his Xiao Meng suddenly start crying? Who can tell him what exactly is happening!
Lea stepped two steps forward to reach Gu Mengmeng. He used one hand to hold onto Gu Mengmeng’s hand that she was using to point at Elvis and pressed it down. With his other hand, he gently wiped away Gu Mengmeng’s tears and with his all-along tender smile, he looked at Gu Mengmeng and said, “You cried so easily for another male. This makes me very jealous.”
Gu Mengmeng swung her arm and swatted Lea’s hand away, growling, “Why are you, someone who’s just lodging at our house, cutting in when a couple is quarreling?”
Lea was taken aback and his face darkened. Breathing in deeply, he held Gu Mengmeng’s hand once again and said with a straight face, “I’ll tell you everything you wish to know. But you have to cool down first, alright?”
Gu Mengmeng wiped her tears away harshly and sent an eye-signal to Elvis. Elvis then sat behind Gu Mengmeng obediently before pulling onto the corner of her dress in utmost cautiousness. He pushed the blame to Lea, “It’s all Lea’s idea. He can definitely explain it clearly. Don’t be angry first and listen to him, alright?”
Gu Mengmeng gave Elvis a ‘I’ll deal with you later’ expression and turned her head to look at Lea, saying, “Say, what exactly is going on?”
Looking at Elvis and Gu Mengmeng’s interaction, Lea’s heart felt like a tsunami was brewing. However, on the surface, he still spoke with a calm and peaceful expression, “You saw Dumbo before, so you should know that I used to be the Ninth Highness of Sauder tribe and that Sauder is the messengers tribe of the last messenger of the Beast Deity. Although the last messenger of the Beast Deity had passed away for close to a thousand years, Sauder still plays a decisive role in the Beast World. Do you know why?”
Gu Mengmeng shook her head, not having any intention to guess. She did not want to use her brain, all she wanted was to know the answer as soon as possible.
“That’s because the last messenger of the Beast Deity said this before she passed away, ‘A thousand years later, a messenger will arrive in Sauder once again to complete the unfinished mission.’ Everyone was fearful about these last words and nobody dared to become enemies with a tribe specialized in serving messengers of the Beast Deity so Sauder has a more prestigious name in the Beast World, called the ‘messengers tribe’. But, being a prince, I know a version that commoners don’t know of, that is in the last words of the messenger, she did not mention Sauder at all. The last words she left were, “A thousand years later, a messenger will arrive once again to complete the unfinished mission.’”
