The incident of eating earthworms raw bothered Shen Miao for a long time.

On the other hand, after being severely beaten by Shen Miao and escaping back to the mountain, the Beast King still couldn't let go of the Golden Eagle Egg. Moreover, after this incident, its obsession with the Golden Eagle Egg deepened, and it vowed to get the Golden Eagle Egg.

However, this time it didn't plan to go by itself, but instead sent the Bone-Melting Serpent, a beast with exceptional thieving skills, to steal the Golden Eagle Egg back.

The ossified snake was cunning and cautious by nature. It did not go directly into Shen Miao's house, but first scouted the area around Shen Miao's house seven or eight times to confirm the best escape route before deciding to go in to steal the eggs.

However, having been targeted several times, Shen Miao already knew the importance of the golden eagle egg and protected it very carefully, so the bone-changing snake couldn't find the egg for a while.

Instead, it alarmed Shen Miao.

When Shen Miao saw a snake slithering around the house, she knew it was up to no good. She closed the door and gave the ossified snake a good beating.

This strange beast was not very strong; it was beaten so badly by Shen Miao that it ran away with its head in its hands, howling for mercy.

Hearing it speak, Shen Miao knew it was another strange beast and coldly asked, "Who sent you here? What are you doing here?"

"I came here on my own. I was just passing by and accidentally came into your house. You can't hit me. Let me go right now!" the bone-transforming snake said as it fled.

Shen Miao couldn't help but laugh, "Really? You won't tell, huh? If you don't tell, I'll beat you to death."

After saying that, he started hitting her again with a series of blows. The bone-molding snake cried out in pain, shouting, "I'll talk, I'll talk, please stop hitting me, I'll talk, I'll tell you everything."

"Oh, go ahead and tell me."

The ossified snake rolled its eyes and said pitifully, "I was actually being controlled. You remember that beast king? It asked me to come and steal the golden eagle's egg. I didn't want to come at all."

Shen Miao suddenly realized that the strange beast was actually the king of these strange beasts.

Wang wasn't much better; he still got beaten up by her.

Shen Miao scoffed and said to the Bone-Changing Serpent, "What were you thinking? It can't even beat me, yet you sent a little minion like you. Do you think you're stronger than it, or do you have some special ability?"

As she spoke, she narrowed her eyes slightly.

The ossified snake's heart skipped a beat, and the whole snake became uneasy. Shen Miao's face darkened. Just as she thought, although she didn't know what the snake's abilities were, keeping it alive was a dangerous thing for the cubs and the golden eagle eggs.

Thinking of this, Shen Miao had already decided to kill him.

She gathered spiritual power in her hand and unleashed a deadly attack on the bone-transforming snake.

However, her spiritual power was depleted. The place where the bone-turned snake had just been was now just a pit with a snake molt in it, but the snake itself had vanished.

Shen Miao used a wooden spear to pry up the snake's molted skin, and in her anger, she tore it in two.

This is nothing short of a blatant provocation. Look, you've used your killer move, but you still can't kill me.

Shen Miao's face was as still as water.

After escaping, the Bone Serpent did not immediately return to the mountain. The Beast King had entrusted it with such an important task, so how could it return empty-handed? It waited outside for several days and seized several opportunities to sneak in, but it never managed to steal the Golden Eagle Egg. Instead, it was always beaten and injured by Shen Miao.

If it weren't so hard to kill, it would probably have died several times over by now.

After fighting the Bone-Changing Serpent several times, Shen Miao realized something was wrong. That serpent was simply unkillable. She tried several methods, but none of them could kill it.

No, it can definitely be killed, but she hasn't found its weakness yet.

Shen Miao told Jiu Ying about the bone-transforming snake. Jiu Ying said that he had never heard of such a strange beast before. However, the snow wolf chimed in, "Strange beasts all have some unique abilities, otherwise they wouldn't be called strange beasts. Their weaknesses are hidden very well, and it takes a lot of patience to find them."

"What is the snake's weakness?" Shen Miao asked.

Nine-Headed Serpent: "Afraid of the cold?"

Snakes hibernate in winter because they are cold-blooded animals and are very afraid of winter.

The snow wolf said, "Perhaps it's afraid of orcs who are stronger than it?"

The discussion ultimately came to nothing, but Jiuying and Xuelang decided that they would have to confront the snake, because perhaps their abilities could kill it.

The ossified snake was very stubborn. Despite being caught several times, it did not give up and kept coming back, only to be caught and beaten again and again.

Previously, Shen Miao fought alone, but now Jiu Ying and Xue Lang have joined the fight.

Jiuying even cut the bone-dissolving snake into pieces, but when it was checked the next day, it was still intact.

This greatly troubled Shen Miao and the others, who felt that the snake was a huge hidden danger, and became even more determined to kill it.

The Bone-Changing Serpent, knowing that Shen Miao and the others couldn't do anything about it, became increasingly arrogant. It would come almost every day and search Shen Miao's wooden house thoroughly, but it still couldn't find the Golden Eagle Egg.

That day, it went to the kitchen, where the fire was still burning. The ossified snake approached unintentionally, let out a shriek, and quickly slithered away, wagging its tail.

Shen Miao happened to come to the kitchen to put something down and saw this scene, and an idea immediately came to her mind.

She secretly called over a few of her cubs and had each of them hold a torch to guard every possible escape route while she lured out the bone-dissolving snake.

After fighting for a short while, the Bone Serpent, familiar with the terrain, tried to escape.

Shen Miao wasn't about to let it get away so easily. She used her Burning Flame ability. The Burning Flame was extremely hot, but it wasn't real fire, so it only burned the Bone-Changing Serpent until it rolled around on the ground, but it couldn't actually burn it to death.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Shen Miao shouted, "Big Treasure, Second Treasure, Third Treasure, Fourth Treasure, go!"

The four cubs nimbly darted out, holding torches, and threw them at the bone-changing snake.

The ossified snake writhed even more violently, its skin hissing as it was scorched by the flames, and a meaty smell wafted out.

The ossified snake rolled and struggled, but could not extinguish the fire on its body. Gradually, it was burned until it could barely breathe, until finally, it made no more noise.

Seeing that the Bone-Changing Serpent didn't understand, the cubs mustered up their courage and tried to go forward to take a look, but Shen Miao stopped them, "Don't go over there!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the unrecognizable wreckage on the ground suddenly turned into a wisp of black smoke and flew straight towards the back mountain.

"It flew away!" Sanbao exclaimed, preparing to fly up and chase after it, but was stopped by Shenmiao.

"Don't go," Shen Miao said in a deep voice.

Erbao said, "But it doesn't seem to be dead yet; it flew away."

"It's alright. It's burned to that extent. Even if it's not dead, it's probably just barely clinging to life. There's no need to be afraid of it. But if you chase after it now, you might fall into the monsters' trap."

The children understood and stopped mentioning the pursuit, celebrating their successful collaboration with their mother and the neat kill they had accomplished.
