Chapter 1482: Don’t Worry, There’s Me!
Gu Mengmeng bent down and reached out her hands to touch that pair of wings.
Strangely, even though she could see it, she could not touch it, just like she could see ice and not feel air.
Gu Mengmeng turned back to look at Gregory in confusion. Gregory said, “lay down and use your back to touch the wings.”
“Okay.” Gu Mengmeng followed his instructions.
She lay on the ground with her face up.
Then she felt a heart stinging pain.
“Ah!” Gu Mengmeng felt something piercing through her shoulder blade and that instant, it was so painful that her entire body was twitching and she was screaming.
“Baby Meng!” Gregory’s eyes had reddened in fright because of Gu Mengmeng’s heartwrenching scream. He wanted to move closer to pick her up but he could not.
A huge tornado spreaded outwards with Gu Mengmeng in the center and swept everything in the world upwards.
Gregory fought the strong wind to move closer to Gu Mengmeng with huge difficulty. Even though the tornado and brutal icicles had cut open his skin like countless knives, he did not retreat and continued to move closer to Gu Mengmeng with strong resolute.
His Baby Meng was screaming in pain in the middle, he had to go over to protect her.
He promised her that no matter what happened, he would protect her so he had to go over.
The sharp ice bits attacked him at lightning speed. He avoided one fatal icicle that was flying towards his neck but he could not avoid the one attacking his eye.
The wind was too strong and the icicles were too sharp. Before he could feel pain, blood had already flowed down from the corner of his eyes.
With his mind still worried about Gu Mengmeng who was screaming, Gregory did not even realise that one of his eyes had turned blind.
The tornado was spreading outwards continuously and its strength was becoming stronger.
Even for Gregory, he had never experienced such strong wind in the past ten years.
If not because Gu Mengmeng was trapped in the middle of the tornado, he would definitely be blown away.
With difficulty taking each step, yet still refusing to step back, when his fingertips finally touched Gu Mengmeng, his heart that had risen to his mouth could finally be at rest.
Gritting his teeth, he forced his body forward and hugged Gu Mengmeng in his arms.
she was definitely in pain as she no longer made any sound. Her eyes were tightly shut and her forehead was covered in sweat. The blood vessels at her temples were almost bursting, her fists clenched tight and her palms with blood dripping, obviously because her nails had dug deep into her flesh.
“Baby Meng, Baby Meng!” Gregory called out in a panic. He hugged her tightly and said, “Don’t worry, there’s still me!”
Gregory opened his arms and transformed them into wings. He placed Gu Mengmeng tightly in his wings, then walked out from the tornado.
When he came to the cave that Gu Mengmeng wanted to visit initially, his wings had already been damaged so badly by the icicles that there was no unharmed skin left, his flesh was badly mutilated and it was so nasty to see.
He placed the unconscious Gu Mengmeng on the ground and knelt in front of the statue trapped in the ice, praying earnestly, “Please transfer all the pain that Gu Mengmeng is suffering to me. I am willing to bear twice the pain in exchange for her safety.”
The howling wind seemed to slowly calm down. Gregory endured the injuries all over his body and used the beast skin to tie Gu Mengmeng on his back. Ignoring the countless wounds on his wings, he forced himself to open his wings and fly.
There was not much time left, he had to bring Gu Mengmeng safely to Elvis and Lea so that they could bring her out.
