Chapter 588: Protection Mark
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Gu ngng wanted to lift her arm to return Elvis’ hug, but only felt her arms were too heavy and unable to be lifted.
Sighing, Gu ngng said, “Elvis, let go of . I need to wear the clothes that Snake left behind for .”
COMNT
Elvis released slowly, feeling as if a piece of skin was ripped from his chest.
Gu ngng had always valued privacy, only changing in the cave, and even making him stay away most of the ti.
However this ti, she stood out in the open, removing the beast skin she originally wore on her body, then carefully wearing the clothes made from the shedded snake skin.
Gu ngng tilted her head, asking, “Does it look nice?”
Elvis nodded, “No matter what Xiao ng wears, you look nice in it.”
The edges of Gu ngng’s lips tried to lift, but she found herself incapable of smiling, and could only sit back onto the rock, squinting her eyes while looking up at the sun, “Where’s Lea? I haven’t seen him since I woke up.”
Elvis replied, “He said... he had so things, he wanted to settle.”
Gu ngng replied, “Cole?”
Elvis stayed silent without a word.
Gu ngng responded, “Even if Cole broke his tail, he is still a peak fifth-level orc, and Lea alone... won’t be able to win him.”
With that, Gu ngng looked into the distance, “Go find Lea, tell him I’m waiting for him and call him back.”
Elvis looked in the direction of Gu ngng’s gaze, and only saw movents in the grass. If one did not look closely, they would think it was rely the grass moving because of the wind. However, a fifth-level beast has excellent vision, and he instantly saw traces of colorful snakes in the bushes.
“You...” Elvis was rather confused.
Gu ngng lowered her head, not looking into Elvis’ eyes, only gently rubbing the back of her neck, “Sorry, I agreed that I would only have your mark on my body. But...”
Elvis replied, “Xiao ng, Snake is the strongest of the Kings, I had nothing against you mating with him.”
Gu ngng shook her head, “Snake did not mate with , this mark... is a protection mark, not a mating mark.”
Elvis furrowed his brows, asking, “Protection mark?”
Gu ngng nodded slightly, “I was almost killed by Ellie, and my bones were shattered into smithereens, even if I was saved, I would have been disabled, and probably would never be able to stand again. Furthermore, Ellie had used the most lethal form of venom in her last bite that she put all her energy into... Even Snake would not be able to clear it in a short span of ti. So, he used the most simple, crude thod to solve the problem.
Elvis remained silent, for he did not know the full story.
He only knew that the colorful snakes had sealed the entrance of the cave after Snake carried Gu ngng back that day. By the ti the snakes had left, there was only an unconscious Gu ngng in the cave, and a huge piece of shedded snake skin beside her.
Gu ngng cald herself down, then continued, “He cut open his chest and gave his gallbladder to neutralize the venom in my body so I could live. He then injected millenniums of disciplines in my body. Other than that snake skin, his everything... is on this mark. Oh, now the snake skin is on my body too.”
Gu ngng continued, “Do you know why he wanted the mark on the back of my neck?”
Elvis shook his head. Based on Snake’s domineering personality, he would have imprinted the mark on Gu ngng’s chest, occupying that position.
However, he chose the back of her neck? Why?
