Gu Mengmeng laughed as she wrapped her arms around Elvis' neck and said, "Why, are all of you intending to retire together?"
Elvis sighed and tightened his wrap around Gu Mengmeng's waist, saying, "I just wish to be the same as them, to have only the rightful role I should have and nothing else."
Gu Mengmeng leaned on Elvis' chest and replied, "take it slowly. If I were to replace the witch doctor and chief at the same time, others would think that I am intending to forsake Saint Nazaire."
"I don't care about what others think, " Elvis stroked Gu Mengmeng's hair gently and said.
Gu Mengmeng continued, "I know, but after all, Saint Nazaire had been painstakingly formed by Lea and you, so I hope that the messengers tribe is Saint Nazaire and not Sauder."
Elvis did not insist and merely responded with a word of 'fine'.
After comforting Elvis, Gu Mengmeng then turned back to look at Lea and said, "there's something else that has been bugging my mind the entire afternoon."
Lea grinned and asked, "Maya's stomach?"
Gu Mengmeng nodded and replied, "you all smelled it? The scent on her body..."
"It's Cole, " Lea responded to Gu Mengmeng.
Elvis snickered."Cole is really brave - he'd actually dared to come to Saint Nazaire during the winter season."
Gu Mengmeng stroked Lea's tail and replied indifferently, "it might be darker under light - a place that is more dangerous may actually be safer. No matter how many enemies he has, who would have thought that he would be this daring to enter Saint Nazaire so indiscreetly and while all three of us are around."
"Indeed, not only has he stayed, he had even impregnanted Maya... Hah, he's really capable." Lea's words were full of sarcasm.
Gu Mengmeng thought for a while and asked, "do you think it's because the 16 valued females had made things difficult for Maya before winter, so Cole had used this method to help her stay safe?"
Lea laughed and said, "does Cole look like someone to worry about others? Moreover, Maya does not have a snow fox as her partner, so once her child is born, the truth will be revealed, unless... he never had the intention for the child to be born."
Gu Mengmeng frowned and said, "it can't be right? Even a monster would not hurt its own children..."
Lea looked at Elvis meaningfully and did not say anything.
Gu Mengmeng's heart paused for a moment. Right, wasn't it their biological father who had tortured Elvis and his brother?
The theory of monster not harming its own children seemed to not be the case in the Beast World.
"Alright, since Maya is already his person, then her life or death should not be our concern. Xiao Meng, you have tired yourself out for a day, you should take a warm bath and rest early." Elvis personally thought that his family background no longer bothered him. No matter how deeply wounded he was initially, it had already become an old scar. Even though it was ugly, it was no longer painful.
It was just that every time Gu Mengmeng mentioned this, she would feel pained, so Elvis had also intentionally avoided this topic to prevent her from feeling upset.
Lea lightly withdrew his tail from Gu Mengmeng's arms and waved it, saying, "alright, I should boil the water now. You should lend her your tail to play with, otherwise she may feel uncomfortable without something furry to play with."
Elvis did not respond to Lea and only placed his large tail into Gu Mengmeng's arms.
Gu Mengmeng did not mind any tail and immediately enjoyed playing around with the tail.
"So, you intend to look for the Heart of the Desert?" Elvis asked.
Gu Mengmeng nodded and said, "I have considered before. If we were to activate your bloodline as the Beast King, the situation would be advantageous for us. Then when I give birth to another child, I will be at ease."
