Gu Mengmeng laughed evilly, then grabbed Ian’s neck even tighter, “However, these beauties are already part of Saint Nazaire, and the eagle-owl tribe are also part of Saint Nazaire. So, as long as your fellow tribesmen are willing, they can feel free to woo those females. Flying is a pretty cool additional attribute, so I believe many females would be willing to have someone from the air force in their families. Of course, since we are so close, I will be sure to prioritise you. If you are interested in anyone, I can help matchmake. Look, I matchmade for Sandy and Collin, wasn’t his proposal impressive? Don’t you want a similar one~”
Ian frowned, looking at Gu Mengmeng. He could not point out what was weird, he just felt that Gu Mengmeng’s tone was… hmm… difficult to explain.
Mainly because Ian wasn’t a modern person. If he was, he could definitely have responded with an interrogative sentence, “Excuse me, are you a matchmaker?”
“What? Aren’t you impressed by my 16 valued women? They are already the best beauties of each tribe…” Gu Mengmeng looked at Ian and asked.
Ian stayed silent for a moment, then asked, “Eagle-owl tribe is your secret power, and we can’t see the light of day, how are we supposed to woo females?”
Gu Mengmeng laughed out loud, “So that’s what you’re worrying about. Brother, you’re thinking too much, how cruel must I be for you all to never see the light in your lifetime? It was just the initial stages of my identity revelation that Lea was worried someone would use cheap tricks, so you all were told to hide temporarily. Such tricks can only be used once before they subsequently lose their effectiveness. So… it won’t take long before you all can appear before the fellow tribesmen in broad daylight.”
Ian looked at Gu Mengmeng, asking, “You really are willing to allow people of the eagle-owl tribe to mate with the females of Saint Nazaire?”
Gu Mengmeng asked back, “Why not? I’m not a twisted crazy person that wants to see others single for life.”
Ian, “Once we mate with females, we will become one of their family members and no longer fellow tribesmen of the eagle-owl tribe, and will the females no matter where they go, this would also mean that… the blood oath would no longer be effective.”
Gu Mengmeng chuckled, “One would struggle to break free the tighter they are held back. When your blood oath is broken, and you guys are still willing to stay in Saint Nazaire, by my side, then you all will truly be fellow tribesmen of my tribe. Equality, interdependence and mutual support. The kind that you can trust them with everything, such people… cannot be gained with oaths.”
Ian looked at Gu Mengmeng quietly, then revealed a tiny smile after a long while, “I lost. You can feel free to shout at me whenever you want to. As long as you’re happy.”
With that, Ian spread his wings and took off, disappearing into the night sky.
Those that had received Elvis’ signal had also rushed over right then.
Gu Mengmeng returned into Elvis’ embrace, watching Lea order the crowd to carry bamboo shoots. Everyone was confused, yet nobody dared to ask, “What is that.” They only followed Elvis and Lea, walking back neatly and orderly.
Lea wagged his huge tail without looking at Gu Mengmeng. He only fixed his gaze to the front as he slowly asked, “Mengmeng, you don’t seem… to believe in oaths, be they Elvis’, mine, or… others’.”
Gu Mengmeng thought about it, and it indeed seemed like so.
