The initial worry about being rejected turned into relief that they were back – a complete reversal.

It's like some people who always thought their novels were lighthearted and humorous, only to find that many people were heartbroken by the sheer power of a snake—a complete reversal that leaves people bewildered.

"Randy, let's take the little snake out to play. We stay indoors all day and never get any sun. The sun is shining brightly today, so take me to the back mountain."

Cang Jue accompanied A Luo in unifying their kind, and Miksen was also dragged away by Monet, becoming the new Beast King. What's with him staying home all day and never going out? And Arthur? With the reforms of the Beast City underway, his grand ambitions for hegemony are just around the corner.

It wasn't that they didn't want to spend time with Guo Xiaoxiao, but Guo Xiaoxiao had advised them that people couldn't revolve around her all the time. They should go about their business when needed, and since their living conditions had improved, they didn't need to be constantly clinging to each other.

Only Randy remained, free of any trouble.

Guo Xiaoxiao understood that Randy wasn't the type to do trivial things; he spent every day with her because he was suited to a slower pace of life, and he also hoped...

Since recuperating, Randy has been much more energetic and smiling, completely transforming into the nominal leader, the Beast King.

"I'll carry you there, and the little snake can hang on us."

Randy transformed into his beast form, and Guo Xiaoxiao sat on it. The little snakes immediately coiled around Guo Xiaoxiao and Randy's bodies.

The little snakes grow very fast, at an astonishing rate, reaching the size of pythons in just a few months.

Their appetites were astonishing; feeding them three times a day wasn't enough, so they were fed five times a day. During this time, they couldn't call for their mothers; their only response was hissing.

The little snakes were hungry, thirsty, and wanted to play. Guo Xiaoxiao could understand their meaning, as if they could communicate with each other using psychic abilities.

Upon reaching the back hill, the little snake slithered merrily through the grass, lingering amidst the beautiful scenery. Guo Xiaoxiao shouted...

"We can't stray too far; we can only stay in this area, otherwise we won't be able to find you, understand?"

The little snake seemed to understand, changed direction, and circled around her and Randy, not going very far.

After a while, the little snakes were suddenly startled and began to split into two groups, each quickly swimming in one direction.

Guo Xiaoxiao noticed something was wrong and pointed, saying

"Hey Randy, they've run away!"

Randy was about to get up and chase after her, but then he realized that would leave Guo Xiaoxiao alone, so he immediately stopped.

"Xiaoxiao, I'll carry you on my back, let's go catch them."

Guo Xiaoxiao hurriedly said, "No need, no need. You go over there, I'll go the other way. What if they get lost if we split up? They're still young and can't find their way. Don't worry about me, go and chase after them!"

Randy hesitated. After all, it was the middle of nowhere, and it was too dangerous to leave the female there. How did the little snake get away?

"No, let's go together."

Guo Xiaoxiao watched as the little snake swam further and further away, afraid that it would lose them, and forgot all about Randy's concern.

"Listen to me, go after them quickly. You're fast, so once you catch them, come back and find me. You have a keen nose and can smell their scent. I'll just keep an eye on things from there; there won't be any danger."

After saying that, Guo Xiaoxiao immediately started running in the direction the little snake had escaped. Randy had no choice but to chase after the other group.

The naughty little ones will definitely get a good scolding if they find out. What if they leave without their mother's permission and get eaten by some wild beast? Even with inherited memories, they can't escape the nature of children.

After chasing for a while, Guo Xiaoxiao spotted them. There were four in total. When they saw Guo Xiaoxiao catching up, they swam onward.

"If any of you four run any further, I'll get angry, and you'll all get a beating if you get caught."

The little snake paused, glanced back at her, and hissed as if discussing whether to move forward. Guo Xiaoxiao looked very angry.

After some discussion, they decided to continue swimming forward, with Guo Xiaoxiao threatening...

"If you run away again, I won't bring you guys out to play anymore. You'll all stay home and aren't allowed to come out."

Once they'd made up their minds, they swam straight ahead without looking back, pausing every now and then as if worried Guo Xiaoxiao wouldn't be able to catch up.

Guo Xiaoxiao is furious and completely disobedient. Strange, she was perfectly fine just a moment ago, has she gone mad? What smell did she detect?

What can I do? They're my own children, so all I can do is follow them. I've followed them for a long time, and it feels like the road back is already incredibly far.

Guo Xiaoxiao chased after the snake, calling out to it, but the snake ignored her, continuing to rush forward without turning back. Guo Xiaoxiao, who had been holding back for so long, finally snapped.

"I don't care anymore! You dare ignore your mother and see what happens! If you get lost and carried off by wild animals, you'll have nowhere to cry."

Even if something were to suddenly appear, Guo Xiaoxiao couldn't protect them; the back mountain was close to the Beast City, so they had to be on guard.

Finally, Guo Xiaoxiao chased them into a cave. It was damp, dark, and exuded a powerful sense of oppression. The little snakes wanted to go inside.

"If you don't obey, I'll really leave. You dare?"

Shaking her head, she gestured for Guo Xiaoxiao to follow them inside. It was a dark mass of people; who would dare? Guo Xiaoxiao's warnings had absolutely no effect on them.

All the little snakes rushed into the cave. Guo Xiaoxiao stood outside, too afraid to go in. What a terrible place! It was bottomless; even the light shining in couldn't penetrate it completely. The little snakes were incredibly brave!

The saying "a newborn calf is not afraid of a tiger" is...

"No way, are we just going to rush in like this? Aren't we afraid of getting eaten by some weird stuff? The children are coming out soon!"

Guo Xiaoxiao observed from outside for a while and found nothing unusual; the rustling sounds of the little snakes gradually faded into the distance.

Guo Xiaoxiao mustered her courage and cautiously entered the cave, following their voices. The deeper she went, the darker it became.

Surrounded by darkness, so dark you couldn't see your hand in front of your face, Guo Xiaoxiao was terrified and could only rely on sound to navigate as she slowly infiltrated the room.

We didn't reach the bottom even after getting inside, so we could only feel our way forward, afraid to wander off.

The little snakes kept crawling around in front of her, and Guo Xiaoxiao said suicidally.

"Don't come any further in. Mom won't be angry with you. Come out now, or Arthur will deal with you. He's not someone to be trifled with."

Arthur didn't give the little snake a friendly look because he disliked Carlos and even felt that Carlos shouldn't have offspring. All the events that occurred were related to him, from the four-star ring to the three-star ring.

It was a complete bolt from the blue. Though he didn't say it, the despair he felt at that moment was enough to make him suffer. If he were truly meant to live as a cripple, Arthur would never have chosen to live.

Fortunately, all the waiting was worthwhile; he regained his Star Ring and even became the Beast King of Beast City.

He didn't listen to a word Guo Xiaoxiao said and kept walking forward, but he was very close to her. His inherited memories told him that females were very delicate creatures.

She doesn't like dark environments, so I need to get close to protect her.

After walking some distance, Guo Xiaoxiao was terrified, feeling as if a pair of eyes were watching her, but nothing ever appeared.

"Don't move. I'll give you little brats a good talking to when we get home."
