Choosing a New Spirit Beast Guardian

When choosing a spirit beast to protect me, I chose a spirit snake.

It had lost all its spiritual power, but after I nourished it with my own, it eventually grew horns and transformed into a Yinglong.

But it refused to form a contract with me. Worse, it took advantage of my weakness and threw me into a raging fire, burning me to ashes.

All this was just to make a medicinal ingredient for the one she loved.

As my soul was about to scatter, I heard her sneer:

“If you hadn’t gotten to me first, I would have found my beloved long ago. You deserve to die!”

When I opened my eyes again, I was reborn in the ghost market.

I hurriedly cast off the snake tail that had been wrapped around my arm.

Then I reached over and picked up the pitch-black egg beside me.

The little snake flicked out its tongue and looked at me pitifully. “Why would you rather have an egg than me?”

I sneered. “With a phoenix egg, who needs you?”
