Chapter 873: Ah Gu, You Must Help Him.
Gu Mengmeng was never that good with directions. After being turned around a few times, she had completely lost her bearings.
Gu Mengmeng only realized she had finally arrived at her destination when a glimmer of light appeared before her.
She emerged from a mystical-looking doorway and was momentarily taken aback, before discovering she was at the Meeting Room at Sauder, with the Thirty-Six Stratagems on the wall and white tiger skin draped over a stone chair.
Chixuan’s tiny body was curled up in the tiger hide. Gritting his teeth and shivering uncontrollably, he looked to be in much pain. He uttered whimpering noises and even though she couldn’t understand beast language, Gu Mengmeng knew from her maternal instincts that those were cries of pain.
Tears trickled down Gu Mengmeng’s face as she dashed towards Chixuan and drew him into her arms. She said soothingly, “Little Xuan, don’t be afraid. Mummy is here.”
Elvis went forward and tugged at Chixuan’s eyelids and ears. “It’s nothing. Don’t worry. He’s just evolving.”
“Evolving?” Gu Mengmeng looked at Elvis with red-rimmed eyes, as if she was a drowning person grasping at a safety buoy.
Elvis nodded. “It’s just the typical evolution process. He is nearly one year old and should be evolving.”
“But Hede and the rest weren’t like this when they evolved...” Gu Mengmeng whined.
This was reality. No matter how powerful a woman was, she would be weak and fragile when faced with issues concerning her own children. This was their most vulnerable weak spot.
Elvis remained silent. He didn’t know how to tell Gu Mengmeng that Hede and his brothers had actually been in much pain during their evolution. But fearing that she would worry too much, all the pain they had to endure was forced to occur all at once, so that the process would be over before she realized it.
And the process of evolution from beast to human form involved the crushing and regeneration of every single inch of bone over and over again...
For this painful process to occur all at once, most beasts would never be able to withstand it. It would lead to a failure in the evolution and result in lifelong deformities or instant death.
So although Elvis never mentioned it before, he was rather proud of the successful evolutions of his three sons.
But he could not tell Gu Mengmeng that.
Just Chixuan alone was enough to cause her so much worry. If he brought up the evolution process of the other three, she would definitely blame herself.
Rather than blaming herself... he would rather she blame him.
Elvis maintained a mild expression. “He has yet to recover from his old injuries, that’s why he will be in more pain during his evolution. He will be fine after enduring this.”
Gu Mengmeng threw a chilly glance in Cole’s direction. If not for his scheming, Chixuan would never have been accidentally injured by Elvis!
This debt was naturally placed upon his head.
Cole didn’t think Elvis had intended to push the blame onto him. After all, he was best at playing mind games and he knew that no matter what Elvis said, the blame would still fall on him. But it didn’t matter. As Cole said before, if he couldn’t become Gu Mengmeng’s most beloved, he would become her most hated.
After all, she already had so many reasons to hate him, what was one more reason?
As a result, Cole didn’t retort but just said, “Evolution is a crucial time for Chixuan. His combat experience is lacking and he has had too little training. I am afraid his body does not hold the capabilities necessary to support his evolution... although he now has the Kiss of the Ocean, the poison had weakened him too much... so, Ah Gu, you must help him.”
