Chapter 1000: Win Or Lose? Of Course We Won!
The next day, the four brothers came bounding back covered in bruises.
It was the first time Gu Mengmeng saw someone look so excited while their faces were all colored in black and blue.
Before Gu Mengmeng could even open her mouth, Elvis asked, “Did you win or lose?”
“Of course we won!” Kanwu lifted his head with much elation and pride.
With that, Kanwu pounced towards Gu Mengmeng. He was now already half a head taller than Gu Mengmeng and she couldn’t hold him like she used to. But he was unable to break out of this habit. He loved to snuggle up to Gu Mengmeng, and especially enjoyed the doting smile on her face as she caressed his head.
But he had just wrapped his arms around Gu Mengmeng when a wound on his chest was jolted. He grimaced in pain.
Standing beside Gu Mengmeng the entire time, Elvis was very displeased with Kanwu’s behavior with her. Nonetheless, he had not choice but to endure it as Gu Mengmeng’s love for her children knew no bounds.
He snorted at Kanwu’s pained grimace. “You look bad enough even as the winner.”
“You…!” Angered, Kanwu wanted to pick a fight but felt a squeeze around his waist. He looked down at Gu Mengmeng’s beseeching eyes, and decided to force back his words. He just sniffed. “I won’t argue with you for my mother’s sake.”
Gu Mengmeng couldn’t stop smiling. She surmised that their little wolf pups were the only first-level beasts who would dare to behave so audaciously before a fifth-level beast such as Elvis…
So, from some angles, her sons were more gutsy than others. They were so bold and das.h.i.+ng…
“Quickly, tell mummy what happened to you all yesterday?”
Yesterday was the first time those four little ones officially tasted independence.
It was also the first time the four of them fought as a team.
Gu Mengmeng had wanted to sneak a peek at them last night, but was stopped by Elvis. He said that she had to get used to the fact that her children had grown up and needed to face the world on their own.
Kanwu’s eyes brightened the moment he heard Gu Mengmeng’s question. He pulled her to the side. “Mother, let me tell you. Yesterday night, the four of us defeated a third-level beast. Third-level!”
Three first-level and one second-level beast… defeated a third-level beast?
Gu Mengmeng frowned. The difference in powers between the levels was absolute. In the beginning, this was how Lea managed to overcome Nina’s partners.
She clearly remembered that Lea managed to defeat Nina’s dozen over partners in just a few seconds.
Tsk, these four punks. Didn’t they know you should always pick the weakest as your opponent? Stray beasts went straight for the kill during fights, how could they dare to…
Gu Mengmeng bit her lips to suppress her reprimand. The children were still high on excitement and she didn’t wish to burst their bubble.
Kanwu gestured wildly as he narrated how heroic the four of them were yesterday night. Now and then, he would even drag his other three brothers over to reenact certain scenes. Infected by Kanwu’s enthusiasm, Gu Mengmeng followed his story with close interest.
Elvis and Lea showed no such interest. In their eyes, this level of battle as described by Kanwu was… not worth mentioning at all.
Hence the two of them focused their attention on Gu Mengmeng appreciating the myriad expressions on her face. They enjoyed watching her so much that even the noise created by Kanwu was not that unbearable any more.
