Half a day later.
Xiao Yi stood in front of a small grave, holding the platinum-striped beast egg in his hands.
The ashes of the black giant snake lay within.
An existence that sought to protect its child with its dying breath—Xiao Yi would never touch its body, even though it was just a magical beast.
Even though the corpse was that of a Golden Core Realm magical beast, invaluable beyond measure, he felt no temptation to touch it.
On the contrary, he had stripped away the carapace of the Iron-Eating Beast.
It was prime material for forging elemental battle armor.
The carapace of the Iron-Eating Beast alone was worth no less than a hundred million Silver, not to mention that shattered Gold Core?
"Rest assured, since I've promised you, I will definitely take good care of your child," Xiao Yi deeply bowed to the black giant snake.
He gently patted the beast egg in his embrace and tucked it into his clothes.
