Novel Bin Chapter 864
Chapter 864: Frowning, Gu Mengmeng Felt Things Were Not That Simple
Gu Mengmeng didn’t say anything and just watched Dylan’s departing back profile.
The people around her were starting to treat her at a respectful distance. She... should probably get used to this.
After all, the Messenger of the Beast Deity was an unattainably high position.
Not everyone could overcome both the external and internal pressures, and continue to look at her as her former self.
Cole’s scornful gaze at Dylan held a sliver of coolness. A faintly malevolent smile played at the corners of his lips.
He had kept him alive as he was one of Ah Gu’s subordinates.
But...
It appeared that he had miscalculated.
Ha, I am the only one in this world who can make Ah Gu unhappy.
So you...
Are an eyesore.
Cole emitted a low gurgling sound, as if his throat was feeling uncomfortable and he was trying to clear it.
Gu Mengmeng paid no heed. Why would she care about Cole?
She never realized that her brief expression of disappointment and sense of remoteness then, had resulted in the permanent disappearance of Dylan, who once helped her.
After using beast language to secretly signal the hidden stray beasts, Cole continued to nonchalantly accompany Gu Mengmeng as they sat by Chixuan’s side. Caressing Chixuan’s body, he discreetly observed Gu Mengmeng to confirm that she had not realized what had just happened. He then reached out his hand again. “Give me the Kiss of the Ocean. Don’t you also wish for Chixuan to recover sooner?”
Gu Mengmeng took out that black pearl from her pocket and handed it to Cole.
Cole was somewhat surprised as he handled that black pearl. “So this is the Kiss of the Ocean.”
With that, Cole plucked a strand of his own hair. With the slight pinch of his fingers, that hair became as straight and stiff as a needle. Gu Mengmeng was rather astonished. She was a Beast King and yet she didn’t possess such an ability? There was also no recollection of the existence of such a skill in Snakel’s memories.
Cole happily took in the flash of surprise in Gu Mengmeng’s eyes. Apart from disgust and guardedness, this was the only expression she displayed for him, so he naturally treasured it.
With the black pearl in one hand and his strand of hair in the other, he gradually threaded the hair right through the pearl.
Cole secured the pearl around Chixuan’s neck, before inserting it between Chixuan’s lips so that it could be kept in his mouth for the time being.
He then gently massaged Chixuan’s lower jaw to prevent the pearl from falling out. After settling all that, Cole stroked Chixuan with a lingering touch, before turning towards Gu Mengmeng. “Alright, with this Kiss of the Ocean, the poison in Little Xuan’s body will not be triggered again. So... I am no longer able to use Little Xuan to blackmail you. Then, are you going to kill me now?”
Frowning, Gu Mengmeng felt that things were not so simple.
How could Cole be so kindhearted? Why was this so unbelievable?
“If you are willing to return Chixuan to me, I can disregard all our past grievances and let bygones be bygones. I will continue in my role as the Messenger of the Beast Deity, while you be your stray beast king. Things will go on peacefully if we don’t interfere with each other from now on.”
“Disregard past grievances?” Cole chuckled in exasperation. “In that case, I cannot return Little Xuan to you. I want to exist in the most special place in Ah Gu’s heart. If I cannot be your most beloved... then I will be your most hated.”
