Chapter 813
Gu Mengmeng blushed as she glared at Ian. “You are the one in heat. Your whole family is in heat!”
Ian snorted. “I am the only one left in my whole family.”
Gu Mengmeng was choked speechless. She bit down on her lips and wrinkled her nose into a threatening expression.
Ian rolled his eyes in disdain. He leaned to the side in a sickly manner. “You know very well that your fox will emit a thick Fox Seductive Fragrance during mating. The last time you guys mated, the entire Saint Nazaire became “excited” for three days. If you all get “intimate” here, Wabei and I will have to slaughter the entire gang of stray beasts in order to protect you. During my reconnaissance, I estimated that there are about a few hundred of them. Even if killing them will be as easy as chopping carrots, it will still be very tiring. You better behave yourselves. Please maintain some level of dignity during your displays of affection, alright?”
Gu Mengmeng’s face had turned a fiery red from Ian’s words. She dissed him back. “I told you I am not in heat!”
Ian just snorted derisively. “Just look at the expressions of your two males. Their eyes are nearly popping out. Further, you are drooling so much that a puddle has formed in front of you. See that? And you claim you are not in heat?”
Gu Mengmeng instinctively touched her chin. But there was no saliva at all?!
“You have such a despicable mouth. Be careful that no female will ever want you!”
Ian shrugged nonchalantly. “Anyway, there are already people within the Eagle-owl Tribe who have mated. As long as we can proliferate and not become extinct, I have done my duty to my ancestors.”
Gu Mengmeng grimaced at Ian. “If your ancestors knew what an underachiever you are, they will probably crawl out of their graves and beat you to death.”
Ian didn’t deny it but just replied, “Anyway, control yourself.”
“I got it. You are such a nag.” Gu Mengmeng turned away and ignored Ian.
Elvis and Lea were both strong—digging a cave was as easy as slicing tofu for them. Anyway, they were not going to stay here permanently, so the cave did not have to be big. They just didn’t wish for Gu Mengmeng to suffer, and so paid more attention to the details.
Within an afternoon’s time, the cave already looked as good as new. The interior no longer looked or smelled like anyone else had lived inside. Only then did Elvis carry Gu Mengmeng in.
The sky had already darkened and Gu Mengmeng was very tired. She only managed a few bites of roasted meat before falling into a deep sleep in Elvis’ arms.
The next morning, Peter anxiously dashed towards their lodgings.
Wabei was outside and blocked his entry. Even at his prime with no injuries, Peter was no match for Wabei. Moreover, he had come forth to beg for help, and naturally did not dare to force his way in.
He waited anxiously till Gu Mengmeng had awoken and was strolling lazily out of the cave, before finally shouting. “Great Messenger, please save Natalie.”
Gu Mengmeng was momentarily startled. She walked towards Peter and saw that the panic in his eyes was real. It appeared that Natalie’s situation was truly dire.
Gu Mengmeng lowered her eyes. “My hands are tied if you don’t tell me the truth.”
Peter clenched his jaws and stomped his feet, as if setting down a firm resolution. “I will tell you. I will tell you everything.”
Gu Mengmeng didn’t reply but just quietly looked at Peter.
Peter took a deep breath. “When the monsoon season ended, the exiled Snow fox Cole came over here.”
