Like the first lightning tribulation, the second lightning tribulation was extremely intimidating, but it did almost no damage to the millet.
Apart from a slightly tingling sensation, the millet taro didn't cause any discomfort.
Not only that, she even had the energy to finish them off, going up to each of those who had threatened her earlier and giving them a claw strike, leaving a deep claw mark on their faces.
This infuriated those people so much that their eyes turned red, but they dared not speak out because they were afraid of the lightning tribulation.
Shushu was extremely pleased to see this; her small body somehow gave her the imposing presence of someone two meters and eighty centimeters tall.
Only after all those people had been dealt with did she return to her original spot and wait for the third lightning tribulation to fall.
Soon, the third tribulation of lightning arrived as scheduled, and Shushu resumed his old ways, capturing the lightning for his own use, just like before.
With previous experience, the capture of the millet was also successful. It didn't take much effort to make his own little lightning tribulation grow a size larger.
After taming them, she estimated the time until the next lightning tribulation, and with great interest, she randomly selected one of the lucky ones glaring at her and swiped it twice with her claws.
After scratching the person, she even cast a cleaning spell on her claws to provoke hatred before swaggering back to her original spot.
She continued in this manner until the fourth, fifth, and finally the last tribulation lightning strike.
Those unfortunate souls who were dragged along through the tribulation went from initial resentment and disbelief to eventual numbness.
Within the entire area affected by the lightning tribulation, apart from her small frame which remained full of vitality, everyone else was basically in a half-dead state.
The arrogant woman who had initially been shouting about catching millet and sweet potatoes was now barely breathing, more charred than charcoal, and her once full head of black hair had long since disappeared.
The glutinous rice was delighted, knowing that the hair that had been struck by lightning would hardly grow back without timely rain.
So, after the last lightning strike, Shushu was very cunning and swept everyone out of the rain's range, leaving only himself to happily enjoy the rain.
Not only did she enjoy it, she also took out quite a few containers to hold it.
His stingy and unethical behavior left those secretly observing him speechless.
He was tempted to take advantage of her, but remembering her previous feats, he silently fell silent.
Shushu had already noticed these people hiding nearby and spying, and had secretly prepared a backup plan. Seeing that they didn't show themselves, she felt a little regretful.
However, this slight regret was only fleeting.
In the blink of an eye, she silently slipped away from the crowd and pulled out a teleportation talisman. Just as the rain was about to stop, she tore open the talisman without hesitation and left the spot.
After using several teleportation talismans until she was far away from that place, Shushu chose a secluded corner, made sure there were no people, beasts, or spiritual plants around, and then entered her spatial dimension.
As soon as he entered the space, the aura emanating from the glutinous rice ball spread uncontrollably.
The mouse, which was originally small, began to change and mature little by little, growing visibly larger. It had actually shed its juvenile stage and evolved directly into adulthood.
In other words, Shushu has come of age! From today onwards, she is no longer the little baby Shushu, but the young lady Shushu.
This discovery made Shushu very happy. He couldn't help but jump around excitedly in the space, running around everywhere to express his joy.
Before long, everyone in the space knew about it and gathered around curiously, looking at the sweet potato with great delight.
When the ancestor Shuchi saw Shushu like this, he was so excited that he almost cried. He went up to Shushu and kept rubbing his head while murmuring.
"Oh, oh, oh, good, good, my little one is so great."
Clearly, in the patriarch's eyes, regardless of whether Shushu is an adult or not, she will always be his own child, his own junior.
Seeing this, the other children were also overjoyed. They jumped and danced around the sweet potato, having a wonderful time.
After making a ruckus for quite some time, the group finally dispersed, and Shushu returned to his cultivation room in the space, cutting himself off from all visitors.
She hesitated for a long time in front of the mirror before slowly transforming into human form.
The girl before me had a small, delicate oval face, a full forehead, large, round, bright eyes, a small but well-shaped nose, cherry-red lips, and snow-white, smooth skin.
Her purple fairy dress made her look like a celestial being, extraordinary and otherworldly.
As he looked at it, Shushu couldn't help but break into a big smile.
Clearly, she was very satisfied with her appearance.
Just as she was about to take a closer look, she heard Tianluo's voice in her mind, asking where the millet was, as they needed to talk to her.
The millet hurriedly replied, telling them where it was, and raised its hand to remove the restriction.
For some reason, she paused for a moment as she raised her hand, and the image of her adult form flashed through her mind as she imagined her senior brother being the first to see her.
So, without any hesitation, Shushu quickly transformed back into the form of the treasure-hunting rat before opening the barrier.
As soon as I opened the door, I was greeted by a group of people with bright smiles, each holding something in their hands.
When she learned that these were gifts from everyone to mark her coming of age, Shushu felt her eyes well up with tears. She accepted each gift and thanked them sincerely before everyone went back to laughing and joking.
At the same time, just as the millet tree matured and took human form, Lu Li, who had recovered from his injuries and emerged from seclusion with his Mahayana cultivation, and who had just arrived at the Great Enclosure with a group of Winged Clan members, also sensed something.
He took out the life tablet that Shushu had left at Lingxin Academy. Seeing that the life tablet was intact, indicating that its owner must be alive and kicking, his heart finally calmed down a little.
Lu Li gently brushed off the dust with his hand, then carefully put the life tablet away, his expression returning to normal.
A moment later, the voice of the master of the house could be heard from outside: "Master, the patriarchs of the Peng clan and the Bifang clan have arrived."
Upon hearing this, Lu Li's expression remained unchanged, but he quickly got up, opened the door, and went to the reception room with the head of the Dong family.
When the two arrived at the reception room, all the seats except for the two empty ones at the head of the table were already occupied.
Upon seeing Lu Li, everyone present stood up respectfully and bowed, saying, "Greetings, my lord."
Lu Li waved his hand to indicate that everyone did not need to be so polite, and then quickly walked past everyone to sit down in the seat of honor.
