Chapter 370 - It Is Never Too Late For Revenge
The sharp paws hidden behind Gu Mengmeng and Ellie’s velvet paws were slowly beginning to show.
Because other than the nine males Ellie had mated with, she was incapable of seducing any others from the Saint Nazaire tribe.
In other words, after Lea’s warnings, the nine partners of Ellie had become nervous. No matter what Ellie needed, the nine of them would cooperate to get things done, not giving her any opportunity for her to reach out to anyone else. Although that made Ellie furious, she still had to maintain an elegant expression, not daring to express her disdain.
Accurate to Lea’s prediction, they indeed arrived in Sauder in the afternoon.
Stationed outside the entrance of the messengers tribe, Gu Mengmeng looked up at the plaque atop the two wooden pillars. The two words “Messengers Tribe” seemed pretty sage-like. It was just that through the years, the words had been weathered, and Gu Mengmeng felt that if she were to sneeze at that position, that plaque could possibly turn into powder, vanishing and never appearing on the face of the earth again.
Elvis was illiterate, so he only followed Gu Mengmeng’s gaze, thinking it was just a broken piece of wood with a few scratches. He did not know what was so good-looking about it. However, since Gu Mengmeng had always cared about very different stuff, he was used to it. He asked her softly, “You like it?”
Gu Mengmeng came back to her senses, looking at Elvis’ face and smiled, “No, it is just that it’s been long since I saw simplified Chinese words, so it feels nostalgic.”
Lea frowned, looking at Gu Mengmeng, asking, “You... recognise the markings above?”
Gu Mengmeng did not reply, but asked back, “You don’t?”
Lea shook his head, “This wooden plaque was left behind by the previous messenger, other than her, nobody knows what this means.”
Shocked, Gu Mengmeng asked, “Are you all illiterate? Then how do you read the ancient books you used to speak of?”
Lea responded, “The ancient books were for tribute, not for reading.”
Gu Mengmeng, “...”
Lea, “The contents of the ancient books for passed down from one generation to another, so there aren’t many remaining when they were passed down to my generation. Otherwise...”
Lea’s gaze pointed towards the inside of Sauder as it remained deep and cold, as if he was no longer shocked, but there were still waves in his heart. His thin lips moved slightly, continuing to smile, yet every word carried the weight of thousands of dollars, “How would I have been so easily played by them back in the day?”
Gu Mengmeng patted Lea’s shoulders, “It is never too late for revenge. Since we are here, we can help you take revenge while we’re at it.”
Gu Mengmeng pointed to the plaque that had been weathered down, laughing sneakily, “I recognise these words. Later, I will read the ancient books to you.”
Lea was shocked, then his gaze turned affectionate as he smiled, “Alright.”
Gu Mengmeng took the initiative to grab Elvis’ hand, “Let’s go, Hubby.”
Elvis carried Gu Mengmeng up, using beast skin to cover her tiny head, trying his best not to reveal her face. However, even so, it caused an uproar when a string of people entered Sauder.
If it were not for Elvis and Lea giving off a dominant pressure as they walked, these three could possibly find it difficult to move forward any further.
Even Ellie, who was a few steps away, had not even a strange fly near her, except the nine males whom she had mated with.
The eyes of the snake continued to carry evil intent. Even if it was unintentional, a leopard cannot change its spots.
