Little Kingfisher was quite indignant, its small eyes brimming with undisguised contempt: "Could it be that they're afraid of snakes eating people, so they offer sacrifices to appease them?"
"Back then, humans were good at taming giant snakes, and people and snakes lived in harmony."
The Stele spirit provided a different answer: "Giant snakes guarded the human race, protected villages, drove away wild beasts, and could even guard houses and raise infants."
"Hmph, you make it sound like it's true."
Little Kingfisher snorted through its nostrils, refusing to believe it.
"Alright, Yin'er, there's no need to argue about this."
Lin Qingluo smiled and changed the topic: "Searching for treasures in the palace should be the time for our Divine Beast baby to shine."
"Alright."
Upon hearing about treasure hunting, Little Kingfisher instantly forgot about the totem it and fluttered its wings to the ground, starting to pick and choose.
