Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Lea was stunned for a moment before blocking Elvis’ way. “You wouldn’t? A master of the tribe wants to be a tattletale?”

Elvis put on a righteous face and nodded with conviction. “Yeah, Xiao Meng seems to like it every time you tell tales. So I want to try it too.”

Lea was speechless. He had indeed been a regular tattletale to Gu Mengmeng, especially against Snake.

However, he told those tales just to reassure Gu Mengmeng, and was just messing about.

“No no no, we cannot let Mengmeng know of this.”

Elvis raised his brows. “Why not?”

Lea twisted his lips and sighed. “Alright, I will tell the truth.”

Elvis continued to look at Lea in silence.

Lea’s shoulders slumped helplessly. “I am afraid that if I get promoted, I will end up wanting to challenge you... the suppression imposed due to our differences in levels will put me in my place and avoid any unrealistic ideals from surfacing. Those ideals might put Xiao Meng in a difficult position, and must be weeded out at the root.”

Elvis gave a scornful smile and patted Lea on the shoulder. “Do you think I will be scared of you challenging me?”

Lea shook his head. “You won’t be scared. I know you will never give way on matters concerning Mengmeng, which is why I don’t dare to progress. If we come into conflict... Mengmeng will be in a tight spot.”

Elvis flung their hunted prey onto the ground and stood up straight. “If you remain at the third-level, you will only have 10 years left on your lifespan. Can you bear to leave Xiao Meng behind after 10 years?”

Lea’s heart jumped as he shook his head with reluctance. “10 years into the future... who knows what might happen? Perhaps I might not even make it another 10 years.”

Elvis said, “Xiao Meng is still upset over the loss Snake. I cannot imagine how she will react when she loses you. So let go of these unnecessary worries and quickly grow stronger so that you can protect yourself and not provide Cole any opportunities. I don’t wish to see Xiao Meng lose control because of you, and I don’t wish to see her cry over you. This is my duty of a first partner. As a member of the family, you have no authority to reject me.”

Lea and Elvis stared at each other for a long time, before Lea gave a sudden laugh. “Tsk tsk tsk, you are truly a tyrannical first partner. A snow fox’s appearance will become even more alluring as his level increases. Are you not afraid that after I attain the fifth-level, I will become so handsome that Mengmeng will not even glance at you?”

Elvis sneered challengingly. “You can try, if you got the goods.”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Lea didn’t reply but just continued to make his way back with the prey over his shoulders. There was the hint of a smile on his lips, which traveled to his eyes.

So Gu Mengmeng’s first partner had to be Elvis and not him...

Ah, the decision made then was still the right one.

Although it was a heavy price and the process had been painful, in the end... it was a good outcome.

...

Meanwhile, after Lea and Elvis left, Gu Mengmeng held onto Chixuan as she listened to Sandy telling her all the things that happened over the past few days.

Holding Sandy’s hand, Gu Mengmeng said, “Sandy, thank you for this period. The young ones must have given you much trouble.”

Sandy lowered her head and looked at Gu Mengmeng with some hesitation. She asked timidly, “Do you still regard me as your friend?”
