Elvis bared his teeth with a ferocious gaze.
Lea was slightly more calm as he took a little step forward.
Although Gu Mengmeng did not have the teamwork that Elvis and Lea built up after much blood and tears, she could still understand their intentions.
Lea planned to hold back Snake and even though it’s only for a second, he could aid Elvis in running away with Gu Mengmeng…..
Snake seemed like he did not see the obvious rivalry from Elvis and Lea as he took a step forward and stood closer to Gu Mengmeng. With a cold expression, he said, “Tell me, you’re not trying to run away secretly while I’m gone. No matter what others say, as long as you explain to me, I’ll believe you.”
Others say? Who?
Gu Mengmeng lowered her head and saw the colorful snakes circling around Snake’s feet obediently and came to realization.
Ah, she did not understand snake language so clearly, these fellows had already transmitted her conversation with Elvis and Lea.
Erm…..
From an objective perspective, Elvis was clearly intending to run away while carrying her.
Under this kind of circumstances, he actually said that as long as she denied, he would believe her?
Gu Mengmeng sighed helplessly and stated, “I don’t want to be a Saintess.”
Snake was taken aback, he thought that Gu Mengmeng would straighten her neck and tell him the truth or go along and continue pacifying to him.
No matter what, he had prepared himself thoroughly.
But….she doesn’t want to be a Saintess?
Snake looked at Gu Mengmeng and did not say a word.
Gu Mengmeng explained, “It’s too pathetic being a Saintess, if you’ve to force me on being one, even if Elvis and Lea aren’t here, I’ll still crawl away.”
Snake frowned, crawl away?
She had to leave him?
Gu Mengmeng turned her head away and continued, “But if you can recall your order and allow me to not take the role of that damn Saintess, I’ll not run away.”
Snake’s eyes shimmered as if there was an exit to the world in front of him suddenly. He stared at Gu Mengmeng In uncertainty and asked, “If I allow you to not be a Saintess, will you not run away?”
Gu Mengmeng nodded and replied, “I originally came here to save my sons. Now, I haven’t even seen my sons’ shadows, how can I run away? If I run away, wouldn’t I have made a futile trip here? Do you think it’s easy to enter the Snake King Valley? Do you think it’s fun to fall from the sky? In the modern world, I didn’t even sit any roller coaster before, if I’m forced to fall once more, I might just die from having a heart attack mid-air.”
Snake’s tensed chest was relieved all of a sudden and his gaze became a lot more gentle. She was clearly the one at fault but why was her self-confident and straightforward tone so appealing to the eye?
Ha, she ran away not because she hated him but because she did not want to be a Saintess….that’s all.
Snake slowly walked forward and when he walked past Elvis and Lea, he emitted beast pressure after calculating the amount well so that both of them would collapse to the ground in one second while Gu Mengmeng would not feel even the slightest symptom at all.
At the same time when Elvis’s body collapsed, Snake received Gu Mengmeng and held her in his arms firmly.
“I just came back from the outside so my body is warm.” This sentence seemed like it was an explanation to Lea.
He sat next to the fireplace while carrying Gu Mengmeng and tried to reduce the cooling speed of his body so that he could hug her for a longer time.
Looking into her fiery eyes which was reflecting the fire, Snake tried to speak in the gentlest tone possible, “I wanted you to be a Saintess because I was afraid that you’ll be bullied in the Snake King Valley. After all, other than me, a Saintess has the highest authority in the entire Snake King Valley. But I didn’t know about the meaning of the original so-called Saintess.”
