The Beast Deity laughed somewhat sheepishly and rubbed his own nose. “To get the Love of the Sky, you must first be able to reach the skies. You and your partners do not possess such a skill, and only vultures can bring you to the Love of the Sky. But the problem is that vultures usually do not even appear in places within your reach. As for the Spirit of the Rocky Cliffs…… you have no clue about it at all right? According to the rules, I cannot disclose information about things you don’t know of. So……”


  Gu Mengmeng held her forehead. “So now I have no choice but to go find the Heart of the Desert, right?”


  The Beast Deity nodded. “The good news is that Bi An knows the vulture people. If you can get Bi An to like you, he will have some way of letting you meet the Vulture race.”


  Gu Mengmeng’s eyes brightened. “The Vulture race are the people closest to the sky and to the Beast Deity. So they must be your greatest fans? I can drop your name in front of them to gain some brownie points, right?”


  The Beast Deity didn’t know whether to laugh or cry at Gu Mengmeng’s words. She was behaving like a real-life daughter—impish and willful, not bothering to mince her words. Her official and proper manner as the Messenger in the Beast World was nowhere to be seen now. She was just like a little kid spoiled by her Daddy, begging for her favorite toy.

  The Beast Deity caressed Gu Mengmeng’s head dotingly. “Mmm, you can. Go ahead and use my name in front of the Vulture race. Tell them that if they don’t listen to my precious daughter, I will punish them such that no female of theirs would get pregnant in the next five years.”


  “Pfft……” Gu Mengmeng giggled. “Daddy, won’t the corruption bureau investigate you if you abuse your authority like that?”


  The Beast Deity poked Gu Mengmeng’s head. “I only watch romance series, and have not watched any police dramas. I don’t understand anything about whatever corruption bureau. But for my precious daughter, I don’t care even if I fall under investigation. It’s my fate that I am your father.”


  Gu Mengmeng threw herself into the Beast Deity’s embrace as she cried sweetly, “Daddy…… you are so great……”


  The Beast Deity maintained his benevolent smile. He patted Gu Mengmeng gently on her back. “Alright, time to go.”


  Gu Mengmeng nodded. “Oh, same old question. Wabei……”


  The Beast Deity shook his head, indicating that it was still not time yet for him to reveal.

  Gu Mengmeng didn’t probe. She knew that the Beast Deity would naturally tell her the moment he could.

  She stood up and patted herself off. “Daddy, I will be leaving now then.”


  “Wait a moment. ” The Beast Deity called Gu Mengmeng. He cleared his throat. “There’s a song called ‘Sorrow of Separation’ in your world. Do you know how to sing it?”


  Gu Mengmeng thought about it before nodding. “I do, it’s a pretty popular song. Daddy, do you want to hear it? Shall I sing it for you?”


  The Beast Deity shook his head. “Next time. Your little wolf must be anxiously waiting for you at home.”


  Gu Mengmeng nodded and hugged the Beast Deity. “Then I am leaving now.”


  She let herself fall freely backwards.

  Gu Mengmeng felt that if she returned to the present world now, she could probably go bungee jumping with absolutely no fear.

  Opening her eyes, Gu Mengmeng was no longer inside the cave but sunning in the open space outside.

  She was lying on Lea’s body while Elvis sat quietly by the side, using a large leaf to fan her gently. Wabei was sitting nearby, staring at her with seething anger. He said in a chilly voice. “Heard that you were going to leave me behind and go have fun on your own?”
