Chapter 932: What Can You Offer In Return?

It was about another 10 days before she would meet with the leaders of the other tribes.

Gu Mengmeng wanted to receive them in the meeting room. After all, it was a business matter and should be conducted in a more formal setting.

But the upper management led by Oakley expressed their objection with the reason that… the Thirty-Six Stratagems stone tablet in there was Sauder’s sacred object and shouldn’t be seen by outsiders.

Gu Mengmeng didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. That inscription, so casually written, had turned her own office into a sacred grounds.

Never mind. The meeting could be held anywhere.

Gu Mengmeng didn’t insist so Oakley arranged for the meeting to be held in the afternoon on the 10th day. The Platform was laid with a white tiger skin, and a high-backed stone chair positioned right in the middle of the skin. The fur of a white, giant rabbit was spread across that chair. Gu Mengmeng sat upon it in a lazy manner, propping up one elbow on the back of the chair while leaning her cheek across the back of her hand. She gazed down imperiously at the long table which had been hastily set up for the meeting.

Gu Mengmeng counted a total of 26 men seated at that table in pairs. A visual survey showed that they were the leaders and witch doctors of the various tribes.

Elvis and Lea both stood to the back of Gu Mengmeng, one on each side. They held coldly amused expressions from start to end.

They were all too familiar with everyone at the table.

There were those whom Elvis had fought when he was a stray beast. There were those who had kicked Lea while he was down. There were those who had been embroiled with them in territorial fights. And also a few who had come from the tribes near Saint Nazaire. Mmm, those had an even longer history with Elvis and Lea.

And today, all of them were quietly seated at the same table. This scene… was truly groundbreaking.

From her high vantage point, Gu Mengmeng could clearly see the expressions of every single person down to the tiniest details.

Thanks to Wang Xiaoxin, as much as they tried to control their own unease, Gu Mengmeng could tell they were very unsure about taking in those refugees.

They all knew Gu Mengmeng had inherited Snakel’s powers and memories, but who knew if she had also inherited his personality?

That was a guy who would seek vengeance over the slightest grievance.

Gu Mengmeng chuckled and glanced at Oakley, who was standing right at the edge of the platform. He then took a step forward and spoke up. “To all the leaders and witch doctors who have come from afar, I am Oakley and I welcome you all in my capacity as Sauder’s chief.”

Actually, people in the Beast World were not used to such fussy formalities. Faced with Oakley’s welcome speech, everyone just looked at each other, not knowing how to respond.

Wabei slowly slithered out from the shadows, but didn’t ascend the platform due to his status. Instead, he stood at the side near Oakley. Before he could speak, all 26 visitors jumped up as if they had been electrocuted. They stared warily at Wabei.

Wabei snorted with disdain. “What’s the point of speaking such useless words? You want the Snake King valley to spare you all, but what can you offer in return?”

Everyone was stunned before instinctively looking towards Gu Mengmeng.

After all, she possessed the highest authority here. Even Wabei had to yield to her. She would have the final say in the matter.

Gu Mengmeng waved lazily. “As the Messenger of the Beast Deity, I don’t wish to be involved in the matters between you all and the Snake King valley. But as the Saintess of the Snake King valley, I feel that you do owe me an explanation.”
