Gu Mengmeng shook her hand and gently placed her hands on Chixuan’s little face, as she said, “My son has grown up. He has his own opinion and knows to differentiate right from wrong now, I can no longer force my own opinions upon him.”


  “Mum……”


  Gu Mengmeng held onto his little hands and patted it, while she spoke, “Xuan’er, just do whatever you want to do, your mum will support you.”


  In fact, Chixuan did not expect Gu Mengmeng to be so easily persuaded and it made him feel uneasy. He had even thought to himself that if Gu Mengmeng were to cry because of this, he would immediately give in. No matter what, he could no longer let his mother cry again.

  But his mother had actually said that she would support him.

  “Thank you mum,” Chixuan hugged Gu Mengmeng tightly. The breath that he had held in his chest could finally be released now.

  The family of four enjoyed a heartwarming period of around ten days. On the 11th day, the snow that had sealed the cave had completely melted and it signaled the end of the winter.

  Even though Gu Mengmeng was the Snake Clan’s Saintess, without Snakel’s protection mark, she felt unconfident if she had to summon the Snake Clan.

  The Snake Clan members still respected but they would no longer gather around her.

  As a result, when they awoke from their winter hibernation, they slowly slid out of the Snake King valley.

  Without anyone telling them, their natural instincts had told them their Snake King and that demigod had already left.

  A Snake King valley without its Snake King would become a target of everyone and a place of immense benefits.

  If they did not leave, they would not have the capability to protect themselves.

  But this was also a great outcome, now they no longer had to worry that the information about the Soul of the Forest would leak out.

  “We are also leaving. We still have to go to a few places and arrange people to guard the seven treasures.” Gu Mengmeng sat in Elvis’ arms, with one hand on top of her womb, and the other hand holding Chixuan gently.

  Chixuan smiled slightly, as though he was a child who had matured overnight. He had become mature and independent, and no longer worried Gu Mengmeng.

  “Mum, I shall send you guys out.”


  “Yeah.” Actually, Gu Mengmeng could not bear to part with this son.

  But since she had said that she would support him, she should learn to let go.

  After leaving the cave, she felt a little lost and could not believe everything before her eyes.

  This…… was practically Zacharias in the past.

  Fiery red vines had covered the entire valley. They looked as bright as fire but they exuded an aura of danger.

  Gu Mengmeng’s hands that were covering her womb clenched tight. Previously, Elvis and Lea had almost been wrapped into cocoons and she had only saved them after risking her life. Now that she no longer had the Tear of the Beast Deity and was pregnant, how would they get out?

  Lea easily saw through her thoughts and tapped her little nose, while saying, “These vines has Snakel’s blood in them, do you think that they would harm you?”


  Gu Mengmeng was stunned and with her doubts, walked off Elvis’ arms. She reached out to touch the blood coloured vines and a bunch of them immediately wrapped around her wrist gently and so carefully. They followed along the back of her hands and wrapped around her ring finger, then the vines broke and a stream of blood wriggled around it. It was only a short moment but it had already seeped into her skin to form a red mark like a tattoo.

  It looked like a little snake and seemed like a ring around her finger.

  Gu Mengmeng lowered her head and smiled. The blood from this blood vines was indeed from Snakel.
