Chapter 265: Why Am I The One Making The Decision?

Gu Mengmeng accepted Elvis’s compliment, feeling justified and contented. As the snow that was sealing the cave had been smashed open, the cave was not sealed properly and a little cold wind kept blowing in. Gu Mengmeng hid deeper in Elvis’s arms and found a comfortable position to lie in. Looking up at Elvis, she asked, “What were you two talking about just now? Can I listen?”

Elvis pulled a long beast skin from one side to wrap Gu Mengmeng up. While checking in detail whether any part of her body was being exposed to the wind blowing in from outside, he answered her, “Fool, Saint Nazaire’s your tribe, what can you not listen to?”

Gu Mengmeng was slightly pleased in her heart but she still said, “You’re the mighty tribe leader who built Saint Nazaire with your bare hands. Saint Nazaire is yours. If you feel that I’m not in the position to listen, I can hide myself.”

After Elvis confirmed that the beast skin was linked around his body without the slightest gap so that Gu Mengmeng would not be blown by the cold wind, he then extended a hand to take the water cup from Lea. Then, after tasting the temperature of the water and confirming that it was warm and fitted Gu Mengmeng’s taste buds, he then sent the cup to Gu Mengmeng’s mouth and fed her the water. He answered while feeding her, “I’m yours so Saint Nazaire will naturally be yours too.”

Gu Mengmeng grinned, “Such a sweet mouth.”

After drinking one mouthful of water fed by Elvis, Gu Mengmeng then raised her head and continued asking, “What’s going on with the Eagle-owl tribe you two mentioned earlier?”

Elvis placed the water cup aside before throwing a glance at Lea. Lea continued off from where Gu Mengmeng ended and replied, “Do you remember the stray beasts from the last time?”

Gu Mengmeng frowned and huddled deeper into Elvis’s arms out of instincts. She nodded her head, clearly still having a lingering fear.

Lea’s heart ached. If he knew that they would be attracted by Gu Mengmeng’s singing voice to Elvis’s cave and scare Gu Mengmeng to death, he should have killed them all when they just stepped into Saint Nazaire.

But things had already happened and he could only be more prudent and be on higher alert in the future but he could not turn back time and return to the past.

Sighing lightly, he continued, “I thought that all the stray beasts froze to death after running away but I didn’t expect one of them to just be frozen still and not die entirely. After he recovered, he ran to the Eagle-owl tribe to steal food and was subdued by Ian. To protect his life, he told Ian about the storage food in Saint Nazaire. So, the Eagle-owl tribe followed the directions given by the stray beast and found their way here to seek refuge from us.”

“Eagle-owl… what kind of animals are they? Those that can fly?” Gu Mengmeng’s mind surfaced the enormous eagle that followed behind Yang Guo, that animal… looked like it only knew how to eat but not fly. Did the Eagle-owl tribe look like it too? Standing beside Quentin who had broken wings, ha ha ha, was it a savage version of a cosplay?

“Yeah, those that can fly.” Lea did not know why Gu Mengmeng’s expression became a little weird but she looked like she was in a good mood so he did not put it to heart and continued, “We still need you to make a decision for this matter. Do you want to take them in?”

“Me?” Gu Mengmeng pointed at her own nose and asked, “Why am I the one making the decision? You two, one’s the tribe leader and one’s the witch doctor, didn’t both of you come to a decision already? I heard that you’ve even signed a blood alliance with them and gave them your prey. Can you still go back on your promise?”

“If you don’t consent, we can go back on our promise.” Lea said, “I was the one who signed the blood alliance, not Elvis, so you don’t have to worry.”
