Chapter 988: Chixuan Has Died?

Gu Mengmeng nodded. She knew this.
Lea had already told her this during last year’s winter, when Elvis pretended to faint to create an opportunity for Lea.
The moment anything happened to her, Lea would disregard the life and death of anyone else, and tend to her first.
So if she wished to let Lea focus on treating Chixuan, she had to moderate her own emotions. She could not let herself fall into a state which would end up distracting Lea.
Lea held Gu Mengmeng by the shoulders as he watched her face settle into a resolute and calm expression. Only then did he exchange a look with Elvis, before proceeding to treat Chixuan.
Chixuan had suffered numerous broken bones throughout his body, caused by massive external trauma.
His organs were heavily damaged too, which must have been caused by the refusal to yield under the disparity in beast pressure.
Fluids were quickly accumulating in his lungs, while blood trickled out of his lips continuously. His gaze was starting to slacken, but he appeared to be struggling to look towards a certain direction.
Lea followed Chixuan’s line of sight. It was not aimed at Gu Mengmeng, but at Cole.
“Kid, listen to me.” Lea pinched Chixuan’s mouth and forced his face near his. “If you die, your mother will kill Cole in a fit of rage. And every tear your mother shed for you will be placed upon Cole’s head. I will perform a Heaven Opening Rite and have Cole suffer for eternity, with no chance to ever reincarnate. I am a witch doctor and the Paladin of the Snow fox tribe. I have the ability to do so, you know that.”
“If you wish to save Cole, you better grit your teeth and endure. As painful as it is, you better live on.” With that, Lea focused his energy in his palm and struck Chixuan’s chest to create an opening to purge the accumulated fluids.
Gu Mengmeng’s heart ached as she watched this, but she was hapless.
This lousy generation with no anesthetic at all. Gu Mengmeng really wished she could offer up her own chest to relieve Chixuan of his pain.
But she couldn’t make a sound. She couldn’t even shed a single tear.
Because any show of emotion would distract Lea.
Using her own hands to cover her mouth tightly, Gu Mengmeng stared fixedly at Chixuan. Leonard emitted terrible wails from behind, but Gu Mengmeng was not the least bit moved.
Her son had been beaten up by Leonard.
This was a score that neither Cole nor Leonard could ever settle.
“Pfft…” Chixuan spurted a mouthful of blood mouth directly onto Lea’s face.
Oblivious, Lea just continued treating Chixuan.
Cole walked to Gu Mengmeng’s side and observed Chixuan and Lea with arms akimbo. A sneer hung across his face, completely devoid of any love and concern for Chixuan.
Chixuan’s body was twitching violently, and his pupils had already glazed over. He was obviously unable to hold on any longer.
And then…
Chixuan’s body gradually calmed down.
He was no longer twitching.
In fact…
He was not moving at all.
Gu Mengmeng couldn’t control herself any longer. She gave a low sob.
Lea stood up and walked to Gu Mengmeng’s side. He couldn’t bear to witness her bloodshot eyes and lowered his head, “Mengmeng, I am sorry…”
“Ah…” Gu Mengmeng’s mental state was shattered at Lea’s words. She shook her head stubbornly. “No, don’t be sorry… Lea, I beg of you. Please save Chixuan…”
“I…” If I had a way, would I bear to let you shed even one tear?
Lea felt choked. He was unable to say a single word of comfort.
Cole chuckled as he hooked Gu Mengmeng’s chin with one hand. Before Elvis made his move on him, he quickly said, “I said before that unless both you and I agree, Little Xuan will not die.”
