Great beasts, huh! Great divine beasts. Although they may sound fundamentally incompatible, when traced back to their origins, they are all great demons cultivated from ancient mystical creatures, with no essential difference.
The Azure Dragon and the Vermilion Bird are willing to coexist and cooperate with humans, so they are naturally revered as divine beasts and honored beings.
Uroboros and Taotie, however, act willfully, look down on humans, and run rampant without restraint, so they are naturally condemned as evil beasts.
Taotie is gluttonous, spending every day either sleeping or eating.
It would be one thing if she ate wild fruits and beasts, but whenever the mood strikes her, she feasts on fruits, vegetables, and grains grown by humans, on livestock raised by humans, and even on humans themselves.
Thus, Taotie became the enemy of all humankind.
