Knowing each other’s motives and knowing what the other party could offer—this kind of partnering…… it was more like an alliance.

  The wolf race hoped to replace the snow fox’s status in Sauder. Firstly, they must affirm Hede’s and Jialue’s position. Although they were only first-level beasts, they held the bloodline of the wolf king and were on the same side as them.

  One reason for partnering Sandy was to make use of her belly to give birth to a litter of female wolves to mate with the sons of the wolf king. The other reason was because Sandy was someone important to Hede and Jialue. Partnering Sandy was the best way to exhibit their loyalty to those two young masters. Regardless of which of the two reasons was behind their intentions, those seven male wolves would treat Sandy extremely well.

  And Sandy wanted to help Hede and Jialue gain control over the wolf race, hence she would definitely not treat Hodgson and the other six shabbily. Moreover, Sandy had always been a gentle person. Even if she had no feelings for them before partnering, she would never abandon them for no good reason like how Ellie did.

  This had always been the way partnering was carried out in the Beast World. The deep love between Gu Mengmeng, Elvis and Lea before partnering was the exception.

  The winds of change blew through Sauder. Gu Mengmeng could feel it but Lea was right, she had to learn how to trust in her own sons.

  Gu Mengmeng, Elvis and Lea would usually stay at Sauder until the dry season ended. So Hede and Jialue had about three to four months to leverage on their status as the sons of the Messenger of the Beast Deity, the Wolf King and the Ninth Highness, to mediate the clashes between the three powers in Sauder.

  Hede had always been a calm and steady person. Although he was only a first-level beast, he always knew how to win over the hearts of the people. Especially after his “engagement” to Daji, the snow foxes tried their best to cooperate with him in order to get on his good books. Meanwhile, Jialue’s little trick during the bonfire party had the 16 tribes eating out of his hands. Emerging victorious even when caught between the two major powers of the snow foxes and the wolves, and doing so with just a few casual words. The 16 tribes were completely convinced by his scheming. Coupled with his engagement to Kiara, the 16 tribes naturally pledged their full support to Jialue.

  As for the wolf tribe.

  Firstly, with Elvis around, no one dared to try anything funny. Secondly, the young masters of Sauder were after all wolves themselves. No matter how much they secretly despised the other two sides, they would never let their own young masters fall into peril. So at least on the surface, Sauder achieved peace and harmony.

  One week has passed since the bonfire party. Gu Mengmeng didn’t go looking for Sandy in this entire week. It wasn’t that she didn’t want to visit her, but……

  Several times she arrived at the doorway only to hear some unmentionable noises drifting out. She had no choice but to turn back.

  Gu Mengmeng held her cheek as she suddenly shot Elvis an angry look. “Doesn’t any of your wolf beasts know to protect and cherish the fairer sex? It has been seven days…… do they intend to mate Sandy to death?”


  Elvis had no idea why he was being scolded. He rubbed his nose and smiled helplessly.

  Gu Mengmeng also knew she was throwing a tantrum over nothing. Sighing, she apologized. “Sorry, you didn’t do anything wrong. I shouldn’t have vented my anger on you.”


  Elvis drew Gu Mengmeng into his arms and pinched her little face. He said gallantly, “What are you saying? You can’t scold me just because I didn’t do anything wrong? Do you need a reason to throw a tantrum?”
