Looking at Gu Mengmeng’s expression, Collin himself also knew that he guessed wrongly so he scratched the back of his head in embarra.s.sment. Chuckling, he said, “Alas, Gu Mengmeng, what exactly do you want to say? Can’t you just say it directly? I’m not as clever as Lea, I can’t guess it right.”
Gu Mengmeng smiled and said, “If you know you aren’t clever, this shows that you’re not dumb beyond cure.”
Collin tilted his head and glanced at Barete, asking softly, “Is Gu Mengmeng complimenting me now?”
Barete sighed and nodded his head. “Yeah, she’s complimenting you. I’m so jealous.”
Collin grinned from ear to ear and chuckled. “It’s no use being jealous. I’m more clever than you.”
“Yeah, you’re so clever.” Barete turned his head away, sighing.
While the two of them were creating a ruckus, Elvis suddenly scooped Gu Mengmeng up and headed outside. n.o.body asked the reason as they all reached a common consensus and followed him out while maintaining their team formation.
Gu Mengmeng was dumbfounded as she wrapped her arms around Elvis’s neck and asked, “What’s…what’s wrong? Where are we going? Our sons are still sleeping in the cave, are we just going to leave them there all by themselves?”
Elvis glanced back into the cave with the corners of his eyes and said, “If they can’t even protect themselves, it will be better to die a clean death than living.”
“Huh?! You….” Gu Mengmeng rolled her sleeves up and said with her arms akimbo, “Can you protect yourself when you aren’t even three months old?”
“Yeah.” Elvis nodded.
The words Gu Mengmeng wanted to use as her reb.u.t.tal were stuck at her throat and she was actually speechless from his attack.
After holding it in for half a day, she still could not come up with words to refute him back so she turned her head away gloomily and looked at Lea. “Lea, can you help me check on my children?”
Lea swayed his large tail and said, “Don’t worry, the surroundings are filled with Elvis’s scent. Ordinary beasts won’t dare to step too close to his cave at all. As for orcs…ha, who would dare to steal the children of the messenger of the Beast Deity from the tribe leader’s home?”
“But…” Gu Mengmeng wanted to insist further when she heard someone call her name from afar.
She turned her head and saw Bode with an anxious face.
“What’s wrong? Did something happen to Sandy?” Gu Mengmeng frowned. Other than Sandy, n.o.body had made Bode that frantic before.
Since winter just pa.s.sed, Bode’s body appeared pretty frail from one whole season of food moderation. The weather was clearly still very cold but his whole forehead was dotted with perspiration. He pointed behind him profusely with one hand and was so anxious that he could not say a word. After hearing Gu Mengmeng’s question, he nodded his head hard.
Gu Mengmeng said, “Bring me to her. We’ll talk as we walk.”
Seeing how Gu Mengmeng was willing to help, Bode heaved a sigh of relief. He evolved into his leopard form frantically and darted off in a jiffy.
Elvis looked at Gu Mengmeng and asked, “Are we going to follow him….or return back to our cave to check on our sons?”
Gu Mengmeng glared at Elvis and said, “Didn’t you say that ours sons are very safe in the cave? We head over first then settle the matter and rush back before our sons wake up.”
Elvis gave a light smile and handed Gu Mengmeng to Lea while he himself evolve into his wolf form. Lea placed Gu Mengmeng onto Elvis’s back while he himself evolve into his white snow fox form. The next moment, one black and one white shadow followed Bode from behind. Barete and Collin glanced at each other before evolving into their cheetah and black bear forms respectively, following the rest closely.
The few of them disappeared from their original spot in a blink of the eye. The wind and shadows on both sides pa.s.sed them by like lightning, showing that Bode was clearly running with all his might.
When everyone stopped their movements, they had arrived at Sandy’s cave. The rusty smell of blood filled the air and Gu Mengmeng frowned. She looked at Bode and asked, “What exactly happened? Hurry and speak.”
