The little snake’s baby voice was sticky and clumsy, with a hint of awkward babbling.
Shen Tang’s eyes lit up instantly, she excitedly stroked the little snake’s head and said happily, "You can talk now?"
The little snake gently rubbed against her fair fingers again and softly murmured, "Hmm."
It was growing rapidly, not just physically; its mind was developing quickly too, with many vague memories seemingly appearing in its head.
Although it still couldn’t remember exactly who it was, it vaguely recalled having a close relationship with the female in front of it, as she was its most important person.
It intended to stay by her side and protect her.
Shen Tang didn’t know what the little snake was thinking inside its little head, but judging by the way it looked, it probably hadn’t regained its memory yet.
She didn’t know how to explain their relationship to a little snake, afraid it might think of her as its mother, so she gently patted its head and coaxed with a smile, "I’m your sister, call me sister to hear."
The little snake obediently called out, "Sister~"
Its voice was still soft and doughy baby-like, making Shen Tang’s heart melt with its cuteness.
Unable to resist, Shen Tang lowered her head and planted a "smooch" on its little head, "So well-behaved~"
The little snake’s body turned "pink" in an instant, its once-cool body heating up.
As if to hide its shyness, it burrowed its head back into her warm collar, tickling Shen Tang so much she couldn’t help but laugh.
With Shen Tang having cultivated to her current state, eating had become more of an enjoyment; even fasting for ten days or half a month was no issue. To maintain bodily energy, absorbing a Crystal Core was enough.
She said she wouldn’t eat and let the little snake finish the remaining beast meat.
After eating its fill, the little snake started feeling sleepy again.
By now, the sky was very dark; the world seemed covered by a giant black curtain, and Shen Tang decided to temporarily find a place to spend the night.
She was very cautious now, fearing accidents, she wouldn’t even go to the shelter, mostly wandering outside in the wild, each night finding a usable cave or safe spot to make do.
Having cleaned the cave, Shen Tang took out a cushion from the Space and spread it on the ground, cuddled the little snake, and lay down, covering herself with a blanket.
At this moment, she truly felt like a homeless wanderer under a bridge.
Not likely another Monarch in this world would want so desperately to endure such hardship!
