The next day, Bai Qingqing was woken up by the significant tremors in the ground. When she opened her eyes, she saw Cortis leaning against the gap between the boulders in his half-animal form, absorbed in looking at something.

What happened? Is there an earthquake?

Bai Qingqings eyes widened the moment she stepped out.

Oh my god! What did I just see? Was that a dinosaur?

There was a group of dinosaur-like creatures she would only see in movies running down the mountain. They were each the size of an African elephant, and their well-developed hind legs, short and small forelimbs, and sharp teeth suggested that they were carnivorous beasts.

Bai Qingqing felt her knees go weak. She held onto Cortis and stuttered, A-are those the giant beasts you talked about?

Yes, Cortis replied in a deep voice.

Parker agilely climbed to the top of the boulders and said to Bai Qingqing from above, Dont worry, Qingqing. Ill protect you.

Hiss~ Cortis hissed threateningly. The leopard had invaded his territory.

Bai Qingqing secretly tugged at Cortiss hand. Not daring to act too friendly towards Parker, she gave the leopard a small smile.

The gap that Cortis chose was indeed a good place to take refuge in. It was spacious inside the gap, and the entrance was only a meter wide, making it impossible for giant beasts to enter. Not only that, but the rocks here were also unusually solid. It would be hard for the giant beasts to smash their way through even if they tried.

Bai Qingqing was slightly relieved.

When the giant beasts had run far away, Cortis said to Bai Qingqing, You must be hungry. Lets go cook some rice.

Bai Qingqing hesitated for a moment, then replied sheepishly and out of hunger, Okay.

Cortis slithered out of the cave while carrying her. Parker immediately climbed down the mountain and followed behind them at a distance that was neither too far nor too close.

As Bai Qingqing washed the rice, she asked worriedly, Now that those giant beasts are gone, they wont come back, right?

Thats what usually happens. Cortis skilfully wrapped his snake tail around the withered branches of a dwarf tree, his expression still grim. But this time, it was very strange. I dont know if anything will happen next.

Oh, Bai Qingqing replied as she casually looked towards the reflection in the water. Then, something seemed to fall from the sky. Just as she was about to look up at it, a forceful blow was delivered to her head. Ah!

The sound of an egg cracking could be heard, then Bai Qingqings face was covered in sticky egg liquid.

What was that? That was such a huge egg Bai Qingqing wiped her face in bewilderment. The eggshell in her hands was the size of a basketball. It was hard, and it was pretty painful when it hit her head.

She looked up towards the sky, thinking that the egg had fallen from the tree. However, she was surprised to see a black eagle hovering in the sky.

Moore? Is this guy trying to kill me with the egg?

Xiao Bai! Cortis immediately threw the branches aside and rushed to Bai Qingqings side. He flicked his tongue, and his expression suddenly changed. He then immediately rinsed her head in the water, his actions unusually frantic and rough.

Caught by surprise, Bai Qingqing choked on the water and struggled painfully.

Parker was also collecting firewood. When he saw that Cortis was about to drown Bai Qingqing, he transformed into a leopard and sprinted towards them. Howl!

Cortis turned back and glared fiercely at the leopard, warning him. Stay out of this if you dont want her to die!

Bai Qingqing finally had a chance to breathe. She coughed and gasped.

The moment Cortis turned back, Parker immediately came to a stop. He scratched at the soil as he stepped backward, maintaining an offensive stance.

Then, with his keen sense of smell, he noticed the unusually strong smell of eggs.

It was coming from Bai Qingqing!

Parker then noticed the giant eggshell beside Bai Qingqing. His golden eyes shrunk.

Thats a giant beast egg! Cortiss bright red eyebrows furrowed together so tightly that they could kill a mosquito. He glanced at the dumbfounded female and continued, And it probably belongs to the king of the giant beasts.
