Chapter 1541: 1541

With her eyes widened, Gu Mengmeng turned to look at Lea.

Lea’s face was also flushed white.

He took a step back and shook his head profusely, refusing to believe it.

Cole turned Gu Mengmeng around so that her back was stuck close to his own chest. With one hand around her waist and the other holding her chin to force her to look at Lea, he placed his face beside her ears and said mesmerizingly, just like the Snake Spirit bewitching Eve, “If not, how do you think a Ninth Highness, who only has healing knowledge as a witch doctor and no actual experience, could rise to third-level? Where did those brothers that sudden disappear go to?”

Lea’s face become even paler.

When he was still the Ninth Highness, he was the pride of the Snow Fox Clan. His food and everything else were specially served to him and the food was prepared so well that there was no hair and bones in the meat. Even the fresh blood was placed in a stone bowl before serving.

As for those brothers…

In the Beast World, it was part of nature for the males to die in battle, so every one or two years, when there was a brother dying, they had not thought much about it.

Now that Cole mentioned it, he thought about the critical period when he was leveling up… and it really matched the time when those brothers had disappeared.

“Ugh…” Lea suddenly turned around and held the wall as he started to puke.

Lea had said that he was not a kind beast but all his gentleness and kindness would only be for Gu Mengmeng.

He was numb from killing and was never merciful.

It was as though he had placed everyone on a chessboard and plotted each move so that he would not regret every move.

During the time when he was the most crazy, he had even eaten orcs.

But his own brothers…

Biological brothers…

They had actually been cut up into pieces by his parents and presented before him. He had even not realised, and while learning more healing knowledge, he had eaten his own brothers’ flesh and drank their blood…

Lea puked so much that even his bile juice had even come out. He was in such great pain that his eyes were swollen red and bulging out.

Gu Mengmeng felt her heart aching for him. She wanted to go to his side and comfort him but she was locked tightly by Cole’s grasp.

“He always thought that I was kind to him so that he would become careless. But actually, it was not like that. I had only intended on protecting myself initially. I had tried all means to earn his favor so that he could regard me importantly so that our parents would take it into account and not harm me. I only wanted to continue living, even if I had to wag my tail like a pathetic dog.” Cole gritted his teeth as he said each word and sentence. “Ha, and I succeeded. By relying on him, I survived each ordeal once and again, until the end… when even Eldest Brother died.”

Gu Mengmeng’s body froze and she turned her head with much difficulty, unwilling to believe it as she looked at Cole.

Cole laughed softly and said, “The Eldest son of the Snow Fox Clan was supposed to take over the management rights but in order to aid him in leveling from second-level to third-level, Mother Beast gave the order for her male partners to bite Eldest Brother to death without any hesitation. Then, his flesh was cooked and served to him. After coaxing him to eat the flesh, I am the last brother other than him among the nine brothers remaining. Say, in order for him to reach the peak of third-level, and attain the perfect condition to await the arrival of the Messenger of the Beast Deity, would Mother Beast even be concerned about Lea’s feelings towards me?”

Cole held Gu Mengmeng’s shoulders with both hands and his eyes were filled with bits of desperation. He asked her, “Ah Gu, I only wanted to survive, is that really evil? Must I really become the food on his plate so that I could contribute to the relationship as his brother?”
