"No need. We can settle things on our own." Jialue stepped forward imperiously. "Also, my most venerable Beast King, I don't like people threatening my mother… not even if you were just flirting."
Yes, because of Cole and Chixuan, the four little ones were extremely sensitive about others using themselves to corner Gu Mengmeng. It was like a minefield with skull and crossbones symbols plastered all over—whoever stepped inside would be blasted to pieces.
Elvis was just flirting with Gu Mengmeng and didn't think so much.
He was displeased at Jialue's claim that he was threatening Gu Mengmeng. Even more vexing was the fact that although he could have easily annihilated Jialue—he was unable to harm even a single hair on him.
"That is best." Elvis smirked. "I don't want my sons to be useless bums. Needing to rely on their parents' status and background to eke out a living in the Beast World."
With that, he left carrying Gu Mengmeng.
