Chapter 733

: How Did A Nice Water Well Become A Murder Scene
The male raised his head. His face was full of shock and confusion. She had asked him whether they had a witch doctor… not to sacrifice him to the heavens but to give out water?
Gu Mengmeng continued in a mild tone.
Witch doctors are members of the holy order and can be counted as my subordinates. I permit them to use my name for the benefit of their tribes. But apart from the witch doctor, anyone else who enters Saint Nazaire would be punished as a trespasser. In addition… they would be stripped of all water-collecting privileges from then on. Did I make myself clear?


Yes… yes… I hear you loud and clear.
The male nodded vigorously at Gu Mengmeng. He then crawled back up and fled.
Gu Mengmeng sighed and looked at Lea and Elvis haplessly.
How did a nice water well become a murder scene. What happened?

Elvis frowned and twisted his lips. He pondered for a long moment before speaking.
What happens if we distribute the water to them and you don’t have enough to drink?

Gu Mengmeng chuckled.
Just because of that, you two threatened the lives of all those who came to get water?

Elvis nodded.
The lives of the females in our tribe depend on this water well. We males need to guard it with our lives.

Gu Mengmeng leaned into Elvis’ arms.
Why didn’t you tell me that there were people coming to steal it?

Elvis sighed.
I didn’t want to trouble you over such a small matter.

Gu Mengmeng smiled.
Yeah, if I continued to remain in the dark, did you intend to keep killing all those who came to get water?

Elvis nodded solemnly.
Gu Mengmeng didn’t know what to say.
Lea, why didn’t you try to stop this?

Lea shrugged.
Why should I stop it? If they had come right out and appealed to us nicely, I might have accommodated some. But since they wanted to secretly steal from us, we cannot let them off.

Gu Mengmeng felt rather helpless. The Beast World never had rules regarding appealing for help. People just snatched away whatever took their fancy.
Waving her hand, she said,
Never mind. Inform the nearby tribes that if they need water, send their witch doctors to Saint Nazaire to negotiate. Anyone who still trespasses will be charged with defying the Deity.


Yes.
Auretin responded before taking his leave.
He was the Messenger’s guard and it naturally fell to him to arrange for the dissemination of her message.
Gu Mengmeng clicked her tongue twice.
Look at all that blood everywhere. It’s horrifying.

Elvis drew Gu Mengmeng into his embrace and kissed her petite face.
I will have my men get fresh soil from elsewhere and give this area an overhaul.

Gu Mengmeng nodded before following Elvis and Lea back to their cave.
Lea was put in charge of all matters concerning the collection of water by the witch doctors. Gu Mengmeng was then free to spend her days in leisure, sunbathing on a large rock with her three sons.
Two months have passed in the blink of an eye. The Saint Nazaire tribe had an Eye of Life and news of the Messenger of the Beast Deity permitting witch doctors from the various tribes to collect water spread throughout the Beast World.
It was just a small matter to Gu Mengmeng but it once again augmented her reputation in the Beast World. People discussed about her as if she was an angel descended from the heavens…
But there was a sudden change in the situation. Lea was just assembling the group of witch doctors who was to collect water that day, when a head slowly bobbed up towards the surface of the well.
Everyone was shocked. This well was no longer just the lifeline of Saint Nazaire. The survival of several nearby tribes also depended on it. What would happen if someone else seized it?!
