After sending off Chixuan and Kanwu, Jialue and Hede also started busying themselves with matters of the tribe.

The marriage alliance between the 16 tribes and the wolf clan had the internal affairs of Sauder undergo a myriad of changes. The snow foxes thought that Cole, as a Fox King, would be able to face off the wolf clan. Although Elvis was Gu Mengmeng’s partner, the snow fox clan was the original inhabitants of the territory and held founder’s rights. Who could predict that Gu Mengmeng would merge the 16 tribes and the wolf clan. In the blink of an eye, the original three-party tug of power turned into a one-sided situation, rendering the snow fox clan alone and helpless.

But that useless Cole remained oblivious to the situation. It appeared like he did not care about the survival of the snow fox clan at all.

As a result, the elders had no choice but to find another way to save themselves.

In the morning, Gu Mengmeng let Lea carry her over to Sandy’s place, whereby they spotted a familiar face along the borders of Sandy’s territory.

It was the third-level male snow fox Arnold. The top male of his generation who fought against Hodgson in that first match.

“Great Messenger.” Arnold bowed respectfully toward Gu Mengmeng.

Gu Mengmeng gave him an inquiring look. “You are here… is something the matter?”

Arnold nodded. “I have come to confess my feelings for the female Sandy.”

“Confess your feelings?” Gu Mengmeng was stunned. Didn’t the snow fox clan generally not partner outside their race? For the past eight generations, even Wang Xiaoxin didn’t get a snow fox as a partner. They were willing to commit the entire tribe to be her servants, but none of them became her partner.

Lea was the only exception in the entire snow fox clan.

When her identity as the Messenger of the Beast Deity was revealed, the snow foxes did not dare to openly voice their objection, but they secretly put the squeeze on Lea. When Gu Mengmeng became the Beast King and after she became more domineering and fearsome under the influence of Snake’s mark—only then did the snow fox clan gradually stop their bullying.

The snow fox clan didn’t even accept a highly revered Messenger of the Beast Deity—why would Arnold suddenly want to confess his feelings to a half-beast female like Sandy?

It was not that there was anything wrong with Sandy, but that it was extremely suspicious for the imperious snow fox clan to suddenly do something like that.

Lea waved his tail with a smile. “So you feel that your Ninth Highness is not adequate in affirming the relationship between the Messenger of the Beast Deity and the snow fox clan? So you are trying to imitate the wolf clan in getting into a marriage alliance with Sandy?”

Gu Mengmeng frowned as she looked at Arnold with guardedness.

Arnold didn’t try to deny it but just smiled. “After all, his Ninth Highness’ heart no longer belongs to the snow fox clan, am I right?”

Lea nodded in admission. “That is but of course. My heart only belongs to my Mengmeng.”

“So the snow fox has no choice but to seek another way.” Arnold more or less acknowledged that he was proposing to Sandy with the motive of getting a marriage alliance.

“Go back.” Gu Mengmeng said, “I won’t allow people with ulterior motives to go near Sandy.”

Arnold didn’t leave but just retorted in a mild tone. “Do you mean that the wolf clan didn’t have ulterior motives when their people became Sandy’s partners? Or do you mean… the Great Messenger is showing favoritism. There are things which you allow the wolf clan to do, while the snow fox clan can’t?”

Gu Mengmeng was speechless at his words. The seven wolves in Sandy’s household had indeed become her partners to get a direct line to Gu Mengmeng. It was an undeniable fact.

But Arnold was also right in saying that the wolf clan could do that only because Elvis was the Wolf King.
