After returning to the Giant Spirit Tree Herb Garden, Lin Yi noticed that more than four days had passed. Zhi Ling, who had been terrified of the Green Giant Python previously, had apparently become fond of it now.
She'd even climbed atop the huge green snake's head. On seeing Lin Yi return, she put her tiny paws on her hips and assumed an air of superiority and pride.
This unexpected development caused a hint of surprise to appear on Lin Yi's face. Had Zhi Ling's fearful demeanor transformed into a social butterfly's? He waved at her and called out, "Zhi Ling, come down immediately. How could you be standing on the head of the Senior Spirit Beast?"
Zhi Ling squeaked and then slid down the snake's back, the Green Giant Python even lowered its head to make the slope of its body more gentle.
After sliding down from the python, Zhi Ling jumped onto Lin Yi. She looked over the moon and showed no signs of her initial terror.
