Chapter 607: You’re Really Slogging Your Hearts Out
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Gu Mengmeng told Elvis and Lea everything that happened in her dreams and the only conclusion they came up with was: wait.
Elvis and Lea had a blind sense of worship towards the Beast Deity and they said that since the Beast Deity mentioned he would guide her, they shall wait for his guidance patiently.
Gu Mengmeng was irritated internally but besides waiting, she could not come up with a better idea.
Rubbing her temples, Gu Mengmeng asked, “Did anything happen while I was sleeping these past two days?”
Lea and Elvis exchanged glances before Elvis spoke up, “The three little wolves came to visit you but they were chased away by me.”
Gu Mengmeng looked up at Elvis as the latter cleared his throat and explained, “I thought that you were not willing to let them worry too so I just said that you suffered from a shock at the Snake King Valley and were too tired after making the trip back. So, you’ve to replenish your sleep and I asked them not to disturb you.”
Gu Mengmeng thought over it for a while. The way Elvis handled them was correct so she nodded her head and did not pursue the matter anymore.
Lea continued, “When we were at the Snake King Valley, the snow fox tribesmen did not abide by the rules.”
Gu Mengmeng looked at Lea and asked, “What’s wrong with them? Are they trying to overthrow me to welcome Cole back?”
Lea was shocked as he did not understand why Gu Mengmeng would think about that. He just shook his head and explained, “No, they just felt that Saint Nazaire’s tribesmen are holding onto an esoterica you left behind so they forced Oakley to hand it over. Oakley then followed their assumption and used that ‘esoterica’ to threaten the few old die-hards from the snow fox tribe. Auretin and Barete are present all along so nothing much happened other than the two tribes experiencing some conflict. The males are still alright, it’s just that the females from both the snow fox tribe and Saint Nazaire…..had a stronger smell of gunpowder. I heard that a few rounds of battles had happened and both sides suffered casualties.”
Gu Mengmeng rubbed her temples, appearing exceptionally helpless.
Originally, she thought they were going to act ‘Anti-Qing Sentiment’ but in the end, ‘Why Should Women Make Things Difficult For Women’ was the drama they really acted out.
Gu Mengmeng was aware that although Lea was the tribe’s witch doctor, she had left for an entire month and if she did not appear to solve those accumulated trivial matters, Lea would have to use 10 times or even 20 times more his strength to solve them.
Sighing, Gu Mengmeng ‘invited’ those tribe elders to the meeting room.
Gu Mengmeng sat on the master seat while Elvis and Lea stood beside her. Barete and Auretin stood next to Elvis and just stood there quietly, not saying anything.
Ian’s injury was a lot less serious than Elvis and Lea so he had recovered quite fully but his face was still sickly and lacking of energy. However, his coldness prevented others from looking down on him. He stood at a spot near Lea and peered down on the few tribe elders from the snow fox tribe who looked clearly disturbed.
Gu Mengmeng chuckled lightly and spoke, “it was hard on the tribe elders when I was absent this past month.”
The old fellows exchanged glances with one another before one of them stood forward and replied to her, “Sharing the mighty messenger’s worries is our original duty. We don’t dare to claim it’s hard.”
Gu Mengmeng laughed, why did she feel so annoyed whenever someone speaks such official words with her after her previous sleep?!
Gu Mengmeng’s voice started turning cold as she said without much emotion, “Is it? Then is forcing Oakley to hand out the ‘esoterica’ your duty as well? What about instigating the females to fight with each other? Is that your duty too? I’m not dead yet and you guys are calculating how to snatch my inheritance…..you’re really slogging your hearts out to ‘share my worries’.”
