Chapter 381: What the Esoterica Really Was

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“W… Why?” Gu Mengmeng swallowed a mouthful of porridge and asked in the break.

Lea replied, “Because the previous Messenger of the Beast Deity had said that the real Messenger of the Beast Deity would definitely know the content of the esoterica.”

Lea then looked at Gu Mengmeng attentively, as though he was waiting for her to say what was written in the esoterica.

Gu Mengmeng was dumbfounded, she really did not know whatever the esoterica was. Was it “Jiu Yin Zhen Jing” or “The Palm of Rulai”? She did not have any mental preparations when she transmigrated here. She only took a swim and ended up here, not meeting the supposedly all-mighty Beast Deity on the way. n.o.body ever told her the esoterica exist?!

Gu Mengmeng’s heart dropped and asked, “Will I be treated as a witch and burned to my death if I can’t answer it?”

Lea and Elvis looked at each other, smiled and answered, “Females that can’t answer will be punished for disrespecting the Beast Deity, but Elvis and I will protect you and n.o.body can hurt you.”

Gu Mengmeng facepalmed and said in despair, “Do you guys think… it’s a little too late to run away now?”

Cole’s voice sounded from the outside again, “Don’t worry, Sauder will not make life difficult for you just judging from your ability to summon the Flame Devil.”

Gu Mengmeng was stunned, she stared at Elvis and Lea, what’s wrong with these two? Not reminding her that there were people eavesdropping?

Clearing her throat awkwardly, Gu Mengmeng said, “I… I didn’t worry about it.”

Cole chuckled softly, before continuing, “The ceremony is ready, shall we prepare to go over now?”

Gu Mengmeng held Elvis’s hand nervously, Elvis held her hand back, pulling her into his arms and hugged her steadily. With Lea following behind Elvis, they walked out of the stone house together.

Cole did a simple salute to Gu Mengmeng, it was not overly respectful, but something out of basic courtesy.

But it made Gu Mengmeng feel comfortable. She would have felt awkward if it was too grand.

Under Cole’s lead, the group entered a place similar to the Platform of the Deity’s Punishment in Saint Nazaire. The surrounding was so crowded that there was only one path wide enough for one man to pa.s.s.

Cole went up the platform first, before signaling for Gu Mengmeng to come up.

Just when Elvis wanted to carry Gu Mengmeng up, Lea pulled him and said, “This place is only accessible to the tribe leader and the Messenger of the Beast Deity, others trespa.s.sing will be seen as disrespecting the Beast Deity.”

Elvis raised his eyebrow and did not seem to care.

Lea said, “You are just going to make Mengmeng’s life difficult if you insist on going up. Trust her, she is going to be fine. If anything happens, you and I are just here, one step away.”

Elvis looked at Gu Mengmeng, whom smiled at him as a form of saying ‘it’s okay’. Then, she jumped down from Gu Mengmeng’s arms and walked up to the Platform of the Deity’s Punishment herself.

There was a book on the platform, severely damaged from the number of years past. The paper was yellow and crisp, as though it would not even be able to withstand a gust of wind.

But…

Why did the book’s cover look so familiar?

Where did she see it before…

“Hoeing millet…” Cole said in a forceful tone with powerful words, as though chanting some prayers.

Gu Mengmeng was stunned, looking at Cole, not understanding why he was acting strange out of a sudden.

“Hoeing millet!” Cole repeated and stared at Gu Mengmeng.

Gu Mengmeng looked back at Cole with a blur face and she replied stiffly, “In midday heat?”
