“Ultimate weapon? Me? What is it?” Gu Mengmeng had something which could control the entire family? How come she herself didn’t know of it?

  Lea nibbled at Gu Mengmeng’s ear. “I am not telling you. What if you use it to bully me, what shall I do then? Humph.”


  With that, Lea waved his tail and delivered Gu Mengmeng over to Elvis. “I am going to prepare our meal. Otherwise, our floors will have a hole from all that pacing about by that greedy good-for-nothing.”


  After Lea left, Elvis tugged at Gu Mengmeng’s hand. He hesitated for a moment before asking, “Did you ask about that matter?”


  Gu Mengmeng nodded. “My father said yes. But you need to become a Beast King first.”


  Elvis twisted his lips before give a light laugh. “I guess we are getting the Heart of the Desert no matter what then.”


  “That’s why I especially want to know everything about Bi An. He is the guardian of the Heart of the Desert, but he judges a person solely based on his mood. If he happens to like you, everything will be fine. But he doesn’t……”


  “It will be best if he automatically hands it over. But if not…… then we’ll take it by force.” Elvis’ tone was resolute and full of confidence.

  Wabei smirked. “You can’t even defeat me, but want to beat Bi An? Don’t forget that he was already 200 years old and reached elite status when I was just born. Even Snakel doesn’t have much advantage over him. What can you do?”


  Elvis raised his brows with a chuckle. “There’s nothing I can’t do if it’s to protect Xiao Meng.”


  Wabei circled his wrists lazily. “Want to go one round with me now?”


  “I was thinking the same.” With that, Elvis kissed Gu Mengmeng’s forehead. “Be a good girl and stay at home. I might be home a bit later tonight. Let Lea make something nice for you to eat. Don’t wait up for me, okay?”


  Gu Mengmeng nodded. She glanced at Wabei, and then at Elvis again. “Don’t wreck Saint Nazaire.”


  “What a nag.” Wabei couldn’t resist retorting before being the first to slither off.

  Elvis carried Gu Mengmeng and kissed her. He then morphed into a wolf and followed Wabei.

  Left on her own, Gu Mengmeng walked back to Lea’s side. Sprawling lazily over his back, she observed him preparing the meal, before requesting to add a few more potatoes and a little more chili.

  Gu Mengmeng pretended to laugh nonchalantly when she saw Auretin bristling after hearing her request for more chili.

  Lea liked Gu Mengmeng sticking to him like this. Since she had broken up with him that time, she rarely clung onto him like that anymore.

  After all, Elvis was the first partner and he had the first right of refusal. And this right was something he had willingly given away—he could not snatch it back now.

  “You are not worried about letting them head off like this?” Lea asked as he added the ingredients that Gu Mengmeng had requested.

  Gu Mengmeng clicked her tongue. “Little shit knows Bi An is not an easy fight, and is helping Elvis enhance his powers. The two of them know their limits. At the very least, they will not kill each other.”


  Lea ladled a piece of meat from the pot and blew on it to cool it off. He then fed it to Gu Mengmeng. “Mmm, we still have quite a stash of medicines to treat superficial wounds. I will use it on them when they return. How does the meat taste? Does it need more salt?”


  “Ooo, no need. It’s super tasty.” Gu Mengmeng mumbled as she chewed. “Mmm, since things have more or less been settled, let’s take off after the two of them returns.”
