"How about I beat him up again?"
Xuan Chun, the biological father of the little black tortoise, suddenly felt itchy to try his hand at it when he saw his cub crying loudly. He asked the mother of the child beside him.
It seemed that as soon as Xuancha nodded, it would immediately use its claws to give the little cub another meal.
Xuan Cha, the mother of the little black tortoise, glanced at her own child who was crying while eating millet and potatoes after hearing this, and rolled her eyes at Xuan Chun in annoyance: "Do you want your son to cry until the world ends?"
After saying that, she glanced at the little taro, whose main body was even smaller than her own cub, and instantly felt a headache coming on.
How severe must her son's eye condition be for her to recognize a baby so much younger than herself as his father, especially a female baby?
At this moment, Xuancha couldn't help but wonder if her son's brain was still inside the eggshell and had been forgotten by him.
So, the more Xuancha thought about it, the more convinced she was that her guess was correct. Without thinking, she rushed over and ripped off her son's eggshell: "Kid, where's your eggshell!"
"Hiccup~ Eggshell? Oh! The eggshell is here, Mom, what are you going to do! Hiccup~"
The little black tortoise was crying its eyes out because it was about to part with its father when it was suddenly pulled away. Instinctively, it wanted to attack, but it stopped when it heard its mother's familiar voice.
Hearing her ask him for the eggshell, he took it out without thinking and handed it to Xuan Cha, still sobbing and hiccuping.
Seeing this, Xuan Cha was overcome with maternal love. She first channeled a wisp of spiritual energy into the little black tortoise's body to soothe its hiccups, and then carefully examined the eggshell in her hand.
They searched high and low, front and back, left and right, but couldn't find their son's head. Instead, they attracted their son's attention.
"Mom, what are you doing?"
While asking the question, the little black tortoise also looked at its mother warily, as if worried that its mother would steal its eggshell to eat.
"Just eat yours." Xuan Cha was even more speechless. This kid was not clever when he should be, but he was quite clever when he shouldn't be.
As a result, the little black tortoise received the same treatment as its father: a big eye roll from Xuan Cha.
Then, Xuan Cha returned the eggshell to the little black tortoise and stuffed a large piece into its mouth before silently moving aside to lament: How could she have given birth to such a stupid baby? Sigh!
Just as Xuan Cha was sighing, Xuan Chun approached her and whispered something to her.
"Honey, don't be sad. At worst, we can just go with these people. They're still our child's other father, aren't they?"
Xuan Cha was still sighing when she suddenly heard its words and was somewhat surprised. She turned to look at Xuan Chun and met its serious gaze, realizing that Xuan Chun really had this idea and was not joking.
It immediately became serious as well, and replied telepathically, "Are you serious? Are these people feasible?"
Xuan Chun, however, remained completely calm and began to analyze the situation for her.
"Look at the spirit beast cubs around them, each one is so at ease, just like they're with family. Our cub's father is especially well cared for; that human cultivator is truly exceptional towards him. Besides, this is a secret realm, the Heavenly Dao is incomplete, and we'll have to leave sooner or later. Why not choose one that's good for the spirit beasts? What do you say?"
"Alright, in that case, I'll go and tell everyone. You should also hurry and talk to the person in charge; the secret realm should be closing soon."
'Okay, let's split up then.'
Although the two turtles were turtle-type spirit beasts, they were not slow-moving turtles. Once they realized they were going to leave, they immediately set off on their own.
Xuan Cha summoned the Azure Turtle for consultation, while Xuan Chun went directly to Lu Li, expressing his desire to go with him and offering him a reward of many aquatic spiritual plants.
Lu Li thought about it and didn't refuse, only saying that he could take them away from the secret realm.
As for whether they can stay in the Liuyue Sect after leaving the secret realm, that depends on whether they can pass the test. The Liuyue Sect doesn't just take in any beast.
Xuan Chun was not surprised by this; on the contrary, he felt at ease. He thanked Lu Li profusely and then took his leave to find Xuan Cha.
Xuan Cha's situation went more smoothly than expected. After all, the clan had discussed leaving the secret realm long ago, but they had been putting it off until a suitable opportunity presented itself.
In fact, ever since the appearance of the Liuyue Sect, the Biyun Xuan Turtle Clan had noticed that there were a lot of little ones in the group.
At first, everyone thought that the baby had been brought here by those people, and they were all wary of them.
Later, it was discovered that the children had a close relationship with those people, and those people treated the children with great care, looking at them as if they were their own juniors.
Since these people didn't seem to have any ill intentions, everyone relaxed a little.
Even when they were used as the little ones' test opponents, none of them got angry. Instead, they were incredibly patient and kept sparring with them for free.
Now that we know the clan leader's family plans to follow the Liuyue Sect, most of them, except for a few who really don't want to move, have decided to go with them.
Therefore, when Hyun Chun arrived, everyone had already made their decisions and started packing their luggage.
It's fortunate that the Azure Tortoise clan isn't a race that likes to roam around, so such an important decision didn't require them to search for beasts everywhere.
All of them were cultivation beasts, each with their own storage techniques, and it didn't take long for them to pack their belongings.
Except for a few who stubbornly insisted on staying and refused to leave, the rest enthusiastically joined the group and sped towards the entrance of the secret realm.
Compared to the other Jade Tortoises who were both excited and apprehensive, the little tortoise was only excited. It had just been born and didn't have much attachment to this land.
On the contrary, he was especially excited because he could finally be with his own father, and kept asking to be with Shushu.
However, at this moment, Shushu was nestled in Lu Li's clothes. How could Lu Li allow any beast other than his junior sister to get close to him, not even the little black tortoise that was longing for him?
Considering that the Jade Tortoise is quite popular in the Rainy Continent, it would be too conspicuous.
As they approached the entrance to the secret realm, Lu Li thought for a moment and, after discussing it with Xuan Chun and the others, decided to let everyone enter the spirit beast pouch first, planning to unleash their powerful beasts after they reached the exit.
As for why they weren't put into the spatial storage, it's because these Xuan Turtle were not from the Liuyue Sect and weren't their own beasts, so naturally they couldn't be allowed to know about these trump cards.
Meanwhile, the children who had been frolicking in the secret realm were all taken back by their parents.
Soon, the group, who had traveled light, finally returned to the entrance just before the gate to the secret realm was about to open, and reunited with the other disciples of the Flowing Moon Sect.
Before long, the gate to the Xunfeng Secret Realm slowly opened under the expectant gazes of everyone, and they rushed out one by one.
Meanwhile, the glutinous rice is about to undergo her Golden Core tribulation.
