Chapter 1310: I Seized The Stray Beasts’ Camp
Gu Mengmeng hugged onto Elvis’s neck and said with a proud expression, “How’s that? Isn’t my son extremely ambitious? He spoke with such power, clarity and strong excitement. He’s so manly!”
As long as Gu Mengmeng was happy, Elvis naturally listened to what she said. Thus, he nodded and agreed, “Yeah, his aura is quite commendable.”
Although Kanwu always had a tense relationship with Elvis, which son would not desire for his Father’s compliment?
So, even though Elvis praised him to mostly please Gu Mengmeng, it was a large source of affirmation for Kanwu.
“Kanwu, tell Mother, how did you level-up?” Gu Mengmeng questioned.
Kanwu looked at Chixuan before breaking out into a smile and said, “Oh, Second Brother said that in order to raise the overall abilities of the tribe, he arranged for same level orcs to occasionally battle each other to exchange tips. And after battling more and more, I naturally leveled-up.”
Upon hearing that, Gu Mengmeng felt that it was a good idea, so she turned to look at Lea.
Without even opening her mouth, Lea replied to her in an instant, “We can use this idea in Saint Nazaire but we can’t do this in Sauder for the time being.”
Gu Mengmeng thought over it and agreed with him. The three powers in Sauder were suppressing their desire to pin down the other two sides and they almost acted out a scene from “Empresses in the Palace’ at the last night campfire party. If they exchanged tips and battled one another occasionally…ha ha, it would not be long before someone dies from this.
Gu Mengmeng nodded, expressing her agreement.
Kanwu hesitated for a moment before telling Gu Mengmeng, “Mum, that….I’ve another matter to inform you.”
Gu Mengmeng saw how Kanwu had a hesitant expression and looked like he was uncertain, so she asked, “What’s the matter?”
Kanwu lowered his head and did not dare to look into Gu Mengmeng’s eyes so he avoided them and said softly, “I…I…”
“What’s exactly the matter?” Kanwu was not a wishy-washy kid. This was the first time he was overly cautious so Gu Mengmeng’s instincts told her that he created trouble. She was rather worried as she asked, “Don’t worry, your Father will hold the sky for you if it falls. Tell me, what’s the matter?”
Kanwu scratched his head and confessed, “It’s nothing much, I just….I seized the stray beasts’ camp.”
“Huh?” Gu Mengmeng could not react in time.
Kanwu thought to himself, he was destined to suffer lashes regardless whether he stuck out or hid his head. Anyways, he had already done it, no matter how angry Mother was, she would not strangle him to death so he gathered up all his courage and repeated himself, “The stray beasts’ camp was seized by me.”
“Why did you seize that place?” Gu Mengmeng was confused.
Kanwu said in a self-righteous tone, “The grapes Mum likes to eat are in the stray beasts’ territory. I don’t want to see Second Brother going in to pluck the grapes every year using his identity as a young master of the stray beasts, so I seized that place. In the future, I’ll pluck the grapes with Second Brother for you every year.”
“It’s for those little grapes?” Gu Mengmeng asked, not knowing whether to cry or laugh.
Kanwu nodded and answered her, “We four brothers have promised to be Mother’s reliance in the future and we’ll gift Mother with the best stuff in this world. Since Mum likes to eat those grapes, I’ll not allow anyone to touch the grapes.”
“But you just seized the stray beasts’ territory like that? Are you not scared of their retaliation?” Gu Mengmeng asked, in an attempt to guide him patiently, “For a hundred years, the stray beasts’ camp has been standing towered like a giant. Nobody can touch its position, and naturally, it has its forte that outsiders are unaware of. You just seized the old nest like that, are you not scared of the stray beasts seeking revenge?”
Kanwu lifted his head and said, “I’m not scared! But….I’m scared that they’ll create trouble for you so I rushed over to tell the truth to Mother so that I can have a lighter punishment….”
