Since only the sound came this time and no shadow was seen, even if Millet wanted to vent his anger, he couldn't find a target.

He could only glare angrily in the direction of the voice, then turned back to look at Shushu helplessly: "Little one, let's go back to the clan's territory first."

Otherwise, if we delay any longer, who knows if these rat ancestors will really disregard everything and come out of seclusion in their true forms to catch them?

Shushu watched the show for a while and realized that his family really wanted to see him. Without much hesitation, he nodded and said, "Okay, let's go back."

So the four rats set off again, continuing their journey back towards their clan's territory.

Half a day later, they finally returned to the outskirts of the treasure-hunting rat tribe's territory.

There is a thick and wide-ranging poisonous miasma here. Only after crossing the miasma can you reach the true treasure-hunting rat territory.

Standing before the swarm of poisonous miasma, Shuli immediately handed each of Shushu and Shuchi a white jade tablet and taught them a special incantation.

With the incantation combined with his divine sense, the jade pendant successfully recognized him as its master in no time.

Immediately afterwards, the jade tablets that had been bound to their owners transformed into streaks of light and flew into their respective dantian.

Shushu quickly looked inward and discovered that the jade tablets were actually surrounding the nascent soul in his dantian, acting as a guardian.

Shushu was somewhat surprised and couldn't help but ask Shuli what was going on.

When Shushu learned from Shuli that the jade token was a special protective artifact made by the tribe and also a pass for entering and leaving the poisonous miasma swamp, which only treasure-hunting rats could use, Shushu was speechless.

It can only be said that the treasure-hunting rat clan's resources seem to be much more impressive than she imagined.

However, as a race born with the ability to find treasures, it's not surprising that they have ways to find these good things.

Therefore, Shushu didn't continue asking questions, but instead turned to urge Shuli. She suddenly became very eager to see what the treasure-hunting rat clan's territory was like.

Seeing her urgency, Shuli stopped delaying and led the way into the poisonous miasma.

As they walked, they didn't forget to use telepathy to tell Shushu and Shuchi about the surroundings, as well as where there were traps and roadblocks.

They explained it in great detail, and both Shushu, who was returning home for the first time, and Shuchi, who had not returned for a long time, listened very carefully and remembered it.

During their journey, they also encountered a group of poisonous creatures blocking their way, led by a Purple Jade Scorpion at the Tribulation Transcending stage.

It stood boldly in the middle of the road, its scorpion tail held high. It glanced at the millet and wheat, and finally its gaze settled on the yam and millet worm, its face full of curiosity and doubt.

Upon seeing this, the millet and wheat immediately introduced themselves to each other.

Only then did Shushu realize that the Purple Jade Scorpion opposite them was actually a native of the Poisonous Miasma Group.

The Treasure-Hunting Rat Clan signed a neighborly agreement with them. The Treasure-Hunting Rat provided them with cultivation resources, and in return, they were responsible for guarding the entrance and preventing outsiders from entering without permission.

This can be considered a henchman that the treasure-hunting rat clan has found for themselves. Over the years, the various poisonous creatures in the poisonous miasma have helped them kill many people and beasts with ulterior motives.

Upon hearing this, the millet became more polite to them, and greeted them as a junior.

The Purple Jade Scorpion wasn't one to make things difficult for beasts. It noted the scents of the millet and the millet worm, indicating that it would notify the poisonous insects below, then nodded to them and disappeared back into the miasma.

The group of millet and potatoes continued deeper into the miasma, without encountering a single poisonous creature blocking their path until they emerged from the miasma.

Of course, not a single one of the various poisonous creatures that the dogs sneaking around on either side to peek at the millet were missing.

Since they showed no sign of emerging, the millet and wheat groves didn't introduce the millet and sweet potato to the millet.

Soon, the four rats reached the edge of the barrier. Passing through an invisible outer enclosure, they felt a surge of rich spiritual energy. The sight before them made the rats stop in their tracks.

The endless green mountains are covered with all kinds of lush spiritual plants and fruits, many of which are varieties that are not found elsewhere, yet they grow everywhere here like weeds.

The fruit trees were laden with spiritual fruits, and the spiritual plants were full of spiritual energy; it was clear at a glance that they were of high quality.

Even though Shushu had many treasures in his spatial storage, he was still quite shocked when he actually saw the scene before him.

Just when Shushu thought this was the land of the Treasure-Seeking Rat Clan, he never expected that this was not the case. The real land of the Treasure-Seeking Rat Clan was actually in a small secret realm.

The entrance to the secret realm is hidden on a stone tablet in the grassland.

Yes, it was a stone tablet. When Shuli and Shushu stood in front of the tablet and Shushu told Shushu that the territory of the treasure-hunting rat clan was inside, Shushu was completely bewildered.

Looking at the stone tablet, then at the millet and wheat, and receiving a big nod from the two mice, the millet had no choice but to believe it and began to curiously examine the stone tablet in front of it.

The stone tablet was neither too big nor too small, roughly the size of an ordinary door. Shushu stared at it for a while but couldn't figure out what it was made of. However, he did notice that it had intricate patterns on it.

The array patterns carried an ancient aura, which immediately attracted her. She couldn't help but look at them for a few more seconds, and then she felt dizzy and weak.

It was only thanks to the timely intervention of the millet and wheat that she was watching over her that the millet didn't actually faint from exhaustion.

Coming to his senses and meeting three pairs of concerned gazes, Shushu realized he had been rash and felt a little embarrassed.

Just as she was about to speak, Shuli blamed herself first: "It's all my fault. I forgot to tell the little one that there are marks left by the ancestor on it, and it can't be looked at casually."

After a pause, it looked at the yam and solemnly apologized: "Little one, I'm sorry, it's Daddy's fault, Daddy was too careless."

The millet, standing to the side, also pounded its head with its paw, its face full of regret and self-reproach: "Mother forgot too."

Since it was their own recklessness, Shushu wouldn't blame them. He quickly comforted them, saying, "Dad, Mom, this isn't your fault."

After saying that, seeing the two mice still looking conflicted, Shushu changed the subject: "Dad, Mom, let's hurry home."

The words "go home" carry a lot of weight, which touched the two mice.

Suddenly, their eyes lit up, and they forgot all about their guilt. Each of them grabbed one of the little potato's paws and said, "Yes, let's go home."

Immediately afterward, Shuli couldn't wait to open the small secret realm and rushed in with Shushu, even forgetting about Shuchi behind them.

If it weren't for Shu Chi's quick thinking and his rapid follow-in, he would have been locked out of the tribe's territory.

Looking at the affectionate family of three in front of him, Shu Chi felt like getting angry, but thinking of what they had been through, he held back. He glared at Shu Li and Shu Mai with a hint of annoyance, and then his anger subsided.

Even when the yam turned around to look at it, it gave the yam a big smile.

Seeing this, Shushu smiled back, but before he could even utter the word "Ancestor," the scene before him changed again.

Then, the potato found itself seemingly in a fuzzy ocean.
