It was inappropriate for Auretin and Ian to enter Gu Mengmeng's house, so Lea set up a huge pot outside of the house and told them everything that happened after Gu Mengmeng left while cooking.
The situation was a mess that time and it would be wrong to say Ian's decision was incorrect. After all, the entire Saint Nazaire had been controlled. Even as the Messenger of the Beast Deity, Gu Mengmeng was like a clam that had lost its shell in that situation, it was too dangerous. Compared to remaining in the unknown danger, going to the tribe of the previous Messenger and ask for protection was the best choice. Even if Cole had any other motives, the identity of the Messenger was made known to the public and Cole had to protect Gu Mengmeng no matter what.
This was also the reason Ian left immediately after his wounds were healed, or else Cole would have killed Ian in order to seal up the message that Gu Mengmeng was in Sauder, then he could accuse Saint Nazaire for incompetency in protecting the Messenger. Once Saint Nazaire was destroyed by all the tribes in the Beast World coming together, Sauder could then find a reason and claim they saved Gu Mengmeng from some strong person, finally he would rightfully become a hero for saving the Great Messenger.
Although it was very likely for Gu Mengmeng to not cooperate with Ian's lies, who would know the truth if they kept Gu Mengmeng away from the outside world?
Moreover, Cole had the Fox Seductive Fragrant, if he used it on Gu Mengmeng, she might...
So the first thing Ian did after he woke up was to escape, turning himself into one of Gu Mengmeng's assured backups.
When he was on the way back to Saint Nazaire, he met Elvis and Lea whom came to look for Gu Mengmeng. Both of them exchanged information and Ian then realized that he had fallen into Cole's trap. The fifth-level beast pressure was not overcome by himself, Cole had made this breakthrough on purpose so that he could bring Gu Mengmeng to Cole himself.
After Lea had combined all the information, the first thing he did was to ask Ian go back to Saint Nazaire and make everyone, including the females, to turn and move to Sauder. Two of the strongest males stayed behind in every female's family, while the whole Eagle-owl tribe guarded the females to Sauder, taking the further path. The other males then met up with Elvis and launched a direct attack on Sauder to attract their attention and ensure that the females are safe, while also covering for Lea, whom had sneaked into Sauder and contacted Dylan that had planned for a rebellion long ago, Lea ensured Gu Mengmeng's safety and told her his plans.
On the other hand, Gu Mengmeng pretended to care for Cole, whom was faking to be unconscious. Lea had put all hope on Cole not letting go of any chance for Gu Mengmeng to accompany him and get close to him so that the Fox Seductive Fragrant could work on her. In addition, Cole knew that Lea and Elvis were just a third-level and fourth-level respectively, the two fifth-level snow foxes outside had absolute control of the situation. Hence, he stayed by Gu Mengmeng's side at ease and went full out on playing the martyr, totally not realizing that Lea was making use of his trick against him, using Gu Mengmeng as the bait to hamper the movements of the strongest power in Sauder.
As for the two fifth-level beasts...
They were just at the start of the fifth-level and ended up being Elvis's training partner, helping Elvis to break past the boundary and enter the fifth-level.
Lea did not expect that too. Although Elvis had accumulated much power in the third level and had advanced to the peak of fourth-level soon after he made it to the fourth, there was still a difference between fourth and fifth-level. But Elvis managed to fight two person himself, even leveling up during the battle, that showed how much the two words 'Gu Mengmeng' meant to Elvis, even stimulating such crazy amount of strength in him.
