Chapter 1281: Father Have You Gone Mad?
“My instincts tell me that something has happened to us when we were in the Mecca Desert. We have forgotten something important, causing my change.” Gu Mengmeng concluded.
Lea nodded and said. “Yeah, I also think so.”
Pondering for a moment, Lea added, “Gregory said that the mountain peak has extreme temperatures, you don’t have a layer of fur to protect you from it, and this is worrying… You should ask the great Beast Deity if there is any solution?”
“Yeah, I know.” Gu Mengmeng answered in a well-behaved manner.
Lea kissed Gu Mengmeng on the forehead, then said, “alright, you and Elvis should sleep. I will guard you guys here.”
Elvis and Lea exchanged meaningful glances with each other, both with the same message – ‘take good care of her’ – except that one was referring to the body and the other to the soul.
Elvis placed Gu Mengmeng securely on his chest and wrapped his hand across his neck to surround her back. His other hand was on her waist as his huge tail lightly covered her stomach, with his legs entwined with hers.
No one knew what would happen after they fell asleep. Elvis was not even sure if he would be able to go to where the Beast Deity was with Gu Mengmeng, so he hugged her as closely as he could so that he was more reassured.
Gu Mengmeng’s little face stuck to Elvis’ chest. Hearing his heart beat, she comforted him softly, “don’t worry, just relax.”
“Yeah.” Elvis kissed Gu Mengmeng’s head again before closing his eyes gradually.
Their breathing were soft and regular and gradually, their breathing and heartbeat were at the same frequency.
Their consciousness left them slowly. In a white fog, Gu Mengmeng held onto Elvis’ hands and smiled gently. Elvis was also looking at Gu Mengmeng and did not say anything but he felt at ease.
Even though there was a thick white fog surrounding them, Elvis felt very safe when he could see Gu Mengmeng.
As usual, the Beast Deity was standing at the top of the clouds. When he saw Elvis, he was not surprised and only waved his hand at Gu Mengmeng lovingly.
But Gu Mengmeng felt something was amiss as the Beast Deity was being exceedingly loving.
“My precious daugther, you are finally back.” Without saying anything else, the Beast Deity immediately grabbed Gu Mengmeng from Elvis’ hands, then with a wave of his sleeves, Elvis was knocked far away.
In the fantasy realm, Elvis did not feel pain, but he was hit without a reason, yet he did not dare retaliate. He could only crawl back in a miserable state, but unknowingly, he could not run closer despite a seemingly 100 or 200 meters.
The Beast Deity ignored Elvis and led Gu Mengmeng to sit on a long bench. He looked at Gu Mengmeng with a reproachful look and said, “sigh, my precious daughter must have been suffering. Look at this tanned skin, even your hands have become rougher, aiyayaya… Why are you frowning? Is it because your partner did not take good care of you? What else have you suffered, don’t worry, tell your father, your father will seek justice for you.”
Gu Mengmeng looked at the Beast Deity with a grim look, not understanding his behaviour, then looked at Elvis, who was trying to run but could never reach them. Then she turned back to look at her father and said, “Father, have you gone mad?”
The Beast Deity’s face immediately changed and his gaze at Gu Mengmeng was filled with accusation when he said, “why? Is your heart aching for him?”
