Seeing Wabei in this state, Gu Mengmeng felt bad.
She summoned Elvis and Love of the Sky to discuss whether she should look for the Beast Deity to ask about the Love of the Sky since Gregory was leaving in five days’ time.
Lea nodded to indicate approval, whereas Elvis held Gu Mengmeng’s arms and laughed, “what should I do? I am a little nervous?”
Gu Mengmeng looked at Elvis in confusion. Then, she realised that since he is a Beast King now, he could visit the Beast Deity with her in her dreams.
She laughed and said, “yes, you should be nervous meeting your father-in-law for the first time, but my father is an easygoing person. It will be fine.”
Elvis kissed Gu Mengmeng’s head and nodded to agree.
Lea swung his tail with envy and said, “Mengmeng, after finding the Love of the Sky, let’s quickly look for the Spirit of the Rocky Cliffs… I also want to level up and become a Beast King so that I can meet father-in-law with you.”
“Alright.” Gu Mengmeng agreed quickly and did not know that behind his coquettish behaviour, his true intention was to obtain the Tear of the Beast Deity after becoming the Beast King sp that he could revive Gu Mengmeng when anything happens to her.
Lea laughed and nodded with a fully contented expression. Then, he straightened his body and said, “then let us discuss the questions you should ask.”
Gu Mengmeng nodded and said, “first, we should know who that ‘master’ is. My gut feeling tells me that I know him and even have a friendly relationship with him. It’s really annoying that my memory is missing this out.”
Lea pinched Gu Mengmeng’s small face and said with a doting smile, “this question is a must. After all, that ‘master’ seems to have something with the vulture tribe. It will be beneficial for us to obtain more information about this. Moreover…”
Lea hesitated, then decided to tell Gu Mengmeng about the scheme that he had plot against Gregory.
With a look of disbelief and wide open eyes, Gu Mengmeng asked, “so… you are saying that Gregory likes me now?”
With an expression of ‘sadly, that is true’, Lea nodded.
Gu Mengmeng used her palms to cover her face as she said helplessly, “brother, how could you could this? It is too despicable to make use of someone’s feelings… this makes me feel really lowly.”
Lea held Gu Mengmeng’s hands in his palms, then continued carefully, “I did not tell you this beforehand because I did not want to make you an accomplice. You did not do anything to him, isn’t it? So it was just me who had schemed against him and used him, it has nothing to do with you. And I used his heart not his feelings.”
Gu Mengmeng’s mouth was crooked with a resentful expression.
Lea said, “I allowed him to get close to you, but I did not force himself to like you. It was him who did not control his heart and prevent himself from liking you. To some extent, this state is his own choice, and I had only predicted this outcome. He willingly allowed his emotions to develop into a form of desire and I had only made use of this.”
Gu Mengmeng frowned and said, “say something that makes sense.”
Lea laughed softly, and replied. “He is the only person who can bring us up Motou Mountain. Since we are going to use him, I need to ensure that he won’t betray you. Otherwise, once you ascend to heaven, he is no longer within our control. How could I allow this risk to exist? You are my deity, you are my life, you are my everything.”
