BXBX NOVEL Chapter 994 - Who Will Protect You?
Chapter 994: Who Will Protect You?
Gu Mengmeng suddenly recalled Leonard’s astonishing reaction to Cole’s “kneel down” command earlier.
Gu Mengmeng clearly remembered that she had not detected any beast pressure, but Leonard had still knelt before Cole.
It was the same bizarre situation as now.
“What do you know?” Gu Mengmeng asked.
Cole touched the tip of his finger to his lips. “What benefit will I get for telling you?”
Gu Mengmeng snorted. “Forget it.”
Ignoring Cole, Gu Mengmeng walked over to Wabei.
Elvis and Lea were worried that Wabei might hurt Gu Mengmeng on impulse, and so stood on either side of her to protect her.
Gu Mengmeng stood in front of Wabei and reached out one hand. “Calm down and listen to me, alright?”
Wabei remained sprawled on the ground. His current condition was different from the previous times when he had been smacked away. He appeared completely drained of energy, so much so that even a newly promoted second-level young pup like Chixuan could easily kill him.
He didn’t move but just lifted his head to stare at Gu Mengmeng.
Gu Mengmeng said, “Over there, Snake has the other me to accompany him. He will not let any harm befall that version of me, and the only way he can do so is to protect himself first. Do you think Snake is a person that can be easily defeated?”
Momentarily taken aback, Wabei shook his head.
Snake had a god-like existence. He was more powerful than anyone in the world and no one was a match for him. Be it intelligence or physical prowess, he was right at the top looking down at the entire world.
With this line of thought, Wabei gradually grew calmer. His pupils also slowly dilated as his emotions quietened down.
Gu Mengmeng discretely breathed a sigh of relief. She continued. “I will go ask my father about Snake at a later time. Chixuan has just survived a crisis and I really cannot stop worrying about him. Let me accompany my son first, alright?”
Wabei snorted without a word.
The Beast Deity only appeared in Gu Mengmeng’s dreams. Unless she was willing, no one could forcibly send her there.
So it didn’t matter whether Wabei agreed or not.
“Can you get up now? Don’t behave like a spoiled child throwing a tantrum on the ground.” Gu Mengmeng smiled as she continued to reach out her hand to Wabei.
Wabei was grumbling in his heart. He had tried his best to stand up after collapsing, but he had no energy in him at all. The only thing he could do was just blink...
Cole took two steps forward and leaned over to speak into Gu Mengmeng’s ear. “If you don’t say he can get up, he will probably be sprawled on the ground forever.”
Gu Mengmeng didn’t understand, but she still tried. “You can get up now.”
Wabei wiggled his fingers and felt his energy slowly returning to his body. He propped himself up and looked at Gu Mengmeng, before turning towards Cole. “What do you know? Tell me now or I will kill you.”
Cole completely disregarded Wabei’s threat. He smiled nonchalantly and said with just a trace of challenge in his voice. “For Little Xuan’s sake, Ah Gu will definitely protect me. And you... you are not able to overcome her, right?”
Wabei rotated his wrists and suddenly grabbed hold of Cole’s neck. He raised one eyebrow with a chilly and malevolent smile. “Who did you say... will protect you, mmm?”
