Under the veil of night, Chen Li trudged through the snow, one step deep, the next shallow.
He felt a twinge of regret in his heart.
This demon beast must have weighed seven or eight tons; if he had shamelessly stayed with the crowd, he undoubtedly would have gotten a few dozen pounds of meat.
It's not that he was eager to grasp at a bargain worth a few low-grade Spirit Stones.
The key issue was that it had been so long since he had tasted demon beast meat.
