"Take a piece, and you can dip it in your own sauce." Su Linyuan cut a thick slice of mutton for Zhu Yi, knowing that Zhu Yi liked the flavor a bit stronger, so he let her make her own sauce.
"Thank goodness we got out, otherwise the monsters in the mountains would have been eaten up very quickly."
"Are you so sure about them?" Su Linyuan asked. "Aren't you afraid that the little monsters you let go today will grow up and come back to hunt you down?"
"I'm sparing them today not for any other reason than to spare their lives. To truly kill them all would be truly inhuman, wouldn't it?"
"I let the zombies out to intimidate them; they were having a lot of fun just now." Zhu Yi's little mouth was greasy from eating, and she kept stuffing it with food.
“If there is cause and effect, I must bear the consequences of what I have done today.” Zhu Yi was also a little worried. “When will this cycle of revenge end? Moreover, these demonic snakes came with great force, and I’m afraid it’s not something that one species could do.”
The distant mountains were always shrouded in a thin layer of ash and dust, and Zhu Yi's face looked even more beautiful in the light of the campfire.
"Master said that with the appearance of Venus, the world will be in chaos, and everyone's hatred and resentment will erupt in a particularly fierce manner."
Bathed in starlight, Zhu Yi's eyes were exceptionally captivating. She pondered for a moment, "Should we set up a kindergarten to house these little monsters we've harmed?"
"This suggestion is great, but it's a bit cruel." Su Linyuan suppressed a laugh, unsure how to evaluate the matter for a moment.
"Hey zombies, let's catch the little monster. Your boss can keep it to play with, but you're not allowed to let me eat it!"
The evil deeds committed by the monsters would be inhumane if they were to be passed on to their cubs.
"As human beings, we shouldn't resort to collective punishment! Let's teach these little beasts well and guide them towards goodness. Monsters have their own righteous path. Isn't it enough for them to just live happily as little animals in the mountains?"
"Hmm, that's good." Su Linyuan smiled and cut another piece of roasted mutton for Zhu Yi.
Yi'er's thinking was a bit simplistic. The young demon beasts are wild and untamed, and they tend to be vengeful. Simple acts of kindness won't make them understand.
Su Linyuan silently took out his demon-collecting bag and handed it over, saying, "Let's use this to collect them first, and then find them a new home after we get out."
At this moment, Zhu Yi had no idea what kind of big trouble Su Linyuan had solved for her.
Fortunately, the Serpent Clan possesses secret techniques, and he also has a serpent father who lives in seclusion in the mortal realm. His father's lazy, gentle, and leisurely spiritual nature makes him a good choice to raise these demonic beasts.
In a secluded spot by a great lake in the mortal realm, a dashing serpent, gazing at the moon, had just returned from swimming in the lake when he unconsciously sneezed. Beside him, a delicate young woman in a pale yellow dress looked at him happily: "What's wrong? Did someone miss you?"
The spirit snake chuckled and used the connection between father and son to search for him: "That brat, he's causing me trouble again."
"Su'er, shall we go and see our future daughter-in-law?"
The beautiful woman by the marsh looked at her husband with great surprise and asked incredulously, "Daughter-in-law?"
“Hmm, he’s grilling meat for the girl next to him.” Ling She looked at his wife with a teasing gaze. “Time flies in the mountains. Little Su has grown up so much! We should go out and see the world.”
Over here, Zhu Yi was on the verge of tears as she watched the little monsters that the zombie family was handing over to her one after another.
A small goat with tiny horns; highly poisonous.
The baby snake, halfway hatched, is pure white, soft, and adorable.
The little Crimson Tiger, its body entirely fiery red, had been bitten on the neck by its zombie brother. Zhu Yi glanced at the melancholy-looking zombie brother beside her and instantly understood.
It's weirdly shaped and really ugly!
"I told you to bring it back for me, and you still bite it. Be careful, or I'll take your roast chicken back!"
The little Crimson Flame Tiger was both cute and fierce, still whimpering, its big, bell-like eyes filled with tears, yet it didn't forget to steal glances at the roasted lamb leg in Su Linyuan's hand.
"Alright, here you go!" Zhu Yi breathed a sigh of relief and offered the little guy a piece of roasted lamb, but Su Linyuan stopped her.
"You can form a contract with it. It's a fire-type demon beast, the king of the forests in the mortal realm. Its fire element can help repair the Brahma Lamp."
Wonderful! That sentence sounds as melodious as a clear mountain spring!
"Would you like to be my friend?" Zhu Yi asked the little guy while holding up the roasted lamb leg. The little guy was still too young to understand and stared intently at the fragrant, tender, and juicy meat, nodding repeatedly.
"You're so sensible!" Zhu Yi liked it more and more as she looked at it. She tapped the little tiger's head, and the Brahma Lamp instantly lit up. A small pink lotus flower flew out from the faint light, splitting into two parts, which landed on the foreheads of Zhu Yi and the little Crimson Flame Tiger respectively. The contract was completed.
The little tiger felt like he had been tricked. Although he got to eat roast meat, he felt like he was a little different than before.
The dim-witted little guy immediately jumped off Zhu Yi's lap, looking aggrieved and indignant as he howled, not forgetting to cover his own roasted meat with his feet.
Zhu Yi asked with some doubt, "You mean this little, tearful hat really belongs to the majestic king of the forest?"
