Wabei smiled sarcastically. He still had a bellyful of anger yet to be vented, and Cole was the only one here with no relations to Gu Mengmeng. If Cole wished to put himself in the line of fire, who else could be blamed?

  Even though he had fought with Elvis on an angry impulse, he had still held back and didn’t mete out any lethal strikes. At the end of the day, he still controlled himself for Gu Mengmeng’s sake.

  After all, in his over 800 hundred years of living, apart from Snake, Gu Mengmeng was his only friend.

  But Cole…… ha, a pathetic little ant for him to squash to death.

  Cole’s neck was being strangled by Wabei and he was barely able to breathe. But he continued to smile in a challenging manner.

  Death. He had never feared it.

  But……

  Ha.

  Chixuan suddenly dashed over and bit Wabei’s wrist.

  The bite power of a second-level wolf beast was shocking. If Wabei did not possess his ridiculously strong powers, his wrist might have been snapped in two by Chixuan.

  He reflexively raised one hand to hit Chixuan, but held back when he looked at Chixuan’s face.

  Chixuan would be smashed to bits if he really struck down.

  Thinking of how Gu Mengmeng reacted after she found out about his “special training” to boost the promotion of those three little ones—Wabei knew that Gu Mengmeng would never treat him as a friend again if he really hit Chixuan.

  So he tightened the muscles on his wrist and just flicked Chixuan away.

  This was a good example of the absolute difference between their powers.

  Wabei frowned at his bleeding wound. He shook his wrist and walked away, ignoring everyone.

  For this matter, Gu Mengmeng knew that she was standing on the side of wrong.

  There was something wrong with Snake’s mark, and as the heir to his power, she was obliged to show some concern. Wabei’s request was not unreasonable.

  But she had rejected Wabei’s request for her own son.

  And now her son had bitten him……

  “Lea, go take a look at Wabei. He’s injured……”


  Lea understood Gu Mengmeng’s worries, but he shook his head. “You better take a look at Chixuan first.”


  “Mmm?” Gu Mengmeng looked at Lea in confusion, before turning towards Chixuan, who indeed looked rather peaky. Shocked, she recalled that Wabei and Snake were both venomous snakes. She also remembered that she had nearly died when she had bitten Snake previously. It was Snake who had to turn around and help her counteract the poison in order to save her life.

  Gu Mengmeng quickly stepped forward and supported the unsteady Chixuan. She then let him lie flat and searched among Snake’s memories for the necessary herbs to make the antidote.

  But she couldn’t find anything.

  Gu Mengmeng was panicking but could find no solution.

  She was just about to copy Snake and bite her own tongue to feed some of her blood to Chixuan, to use poison against poison……

  Before she bit down on her tongue, Chixuan sat up unsteadily. He held his forehead with one hand and placed the other on Gu Mengmeng’s shoulder. He pulled her gently into his arms to comfort her. “Mother, don’t worry. I am fine.”


  Gu Mengmeng felt a violent tug at her heartstrings. All the pain and frustrations she endured today burst out. “Ah…… sob sob…… my Little Xuan…… I thought you don’t want your mother anymore. You ignored me when I talked to you. You refused when I asked you to come home with me…… sob sob sob……”


  Chixuan was at a loss as he watched Gu Mengmeng cry herself into such a state. Shocked, he looked to Cole for help. But Cole had never handled such a situation before too, and just stared back at Chixuan in a daze.

  In the end, it was Elvis who pulled Gu Mengmeng out from Chixuan’s embrace into his own arms. “If my female needs to cry, she can only cry in my arms.”
