Hair-raising...
For the first time in her life, Gu Mengmeng felt that Leaâs smile was rather scary.
Shaking her head, she said, âNo, I have no intention of accepting a Vulture tribe member as a partner.â
Lea chuckled. âThatâs right. The Vulture tribe lives in such harsh conditions high up in the Motou mountain range, and have been nurtured by their environment to be stronger and better-built that us. Further, they know how to fly. At those heights, apart from your beast pressure, no one else can pull them down from the sky. So even if they challenge us to become your partner, Elvis and I might not be a match for them. Not to mention that if you fancy one of them, he can become your partner even without challenging Elvis and I...â
Gu Mengmeng held Leaâs face to stop him from spinning even more exaggerations. âI am not going to take on a Vulture tribe member as a partner. You are thinking too much.â
Gu Mengmeng had pinched Leaâs mouth into a fish pout. Those alluring eyes matched with that adorable pout was so charming that Gu Mengmeng broke into a helpless smile. She kissed him. âStop those wild thoughts. It is enough for me to have Elvis and you. Our family doesnât need another male.â
Leaâs temper melted away with that kiss. His tone softened subconsciously. âThe Vulture tribe rarely descends the mountains but they have done so previously. In the past thousand years, they have come down once to Sauder and met with the leader then. No one knew what they had discussed, but the looks of the Vulture tribe members have been described at length.â
Lea gently pulled Gu Mengmengâs hands off his face. âLong, brown hair like water flowing through a village, soothing to all. Lean and muscular bodies like perfect works of art carved by the harsh weather conditions of the Motou mountain range. A uniquely dignified and debonair aura that had been sculpted by the icy-cold winds above the clouds. When they walked through Sauder, their steps were unfaltering and fearless. Just a passing glance from their sharp eyes made one shiver and instinctively draw back to find a hole to hide.â
Lea finished his description with a sigh, before continuing. âThe snow foxes are such a proud tribeâfor them to describe another race in such a manner and to pass this information along for so many hundreds of yearsâhow perfect-looking they must be? Mengmeng, I have suddenly lost confidence in my own appearance. What if you really take fancy to a male vulture...â
Gu Mengmeng shook her head with a soft sigh. âDidnât you tell me then that you are very confident that no one else in this world is more handsome than you, and asked me to just look at you? Why are you saying this now...â
Lea glanced askance at her, obviously worried. âThat was because the Vulture tribe never came down to the flat lands, and you would never meet them. In that case, I am naturally the best-looking. Who knew... sigh.â
Gu Mengmeng stepped forward to kiss Lea on the cheek. âIt doesnât matter how they look like. In my heart, there is only room for you and Elvis.â
âRemember you are the one who said this.â Lea peeked at Gu Mengmeng out of the corner of his eye in a cloying manner.
âYes, yes yes. I said it.â Gu Mengmeng laughed helplessly. She then snuggled back into Elvisâ arms. âHubby, do you think... this Vulture tribe is so powerfulâshould we bring them all back to Saint Nazaire after we retrieve the Love of the Sky? Just like the Eagle-owl tribe, letâs add them to the strength of our air force.ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âNo way.â Elvis rejected firmly without any hesitation.
Gu Mengmeng cocked her head to the side in question. âWhy not?â
