At the very back of the line, a little crane, unable to squeeze in no matter what it tried, was flapping its wings, straining with all its might to push its way forward.
Suddenly, it felt something poking it from behind. When it turned around, it saw a large group of Spiny Flame Sunflowers standing neatly behind it.
Looking at the large flower plates, the little crane shuddered, and its voice rose a little: "KuiKui, why are you all here too?"
In the Liuyue Sect, the only people named Kui Kui are the group of Thorn Flame Kui that have been raised into spirits by the steward.
The little crane's cry immediately attracted everyone's attention.
Instantly, the previously noisy square fell silent. The group of children turned around in disbelief and saw a large group of Spiny Sunflowers that had appeared behind them at some unknown time.
Despite being stared at by so many eyes, the Spiny Sunflowers remained completely unfazed. Whether they simply wanted to greet them or were deliberately trying to scare them, they even shook their flower heads towards the cubs.
The little ones were so frightened that they all took a big step back, clearing a fairly large passage for them, leading straight to the millet and sweet potato at the end.
Upon seeing this, the lead Spiny Sunflower visibly perked up, turning its flower head around to survey the area like a king inspecting his territory.
Then, amidst the somewhat fearful gazes of the crowd, it strode confidently toward the millet and sweet potato.
The sorghum plant at the far end trembled as it watched a large group of thorny sunflowers, each with a dangerously large flower head, approaching it.
She was worried that if one of the thorny sunflowers accidentally or too excitedly attacked her, she would turn into a pig on her first day back at the sect.
Thinking of the consequences, Shushu couldn't help but shudder and secretly communicated with Xuan Shen to discuss making it bigger.
That way, even if the Spiky Sunflower fails, she'll have something to block the spikes flying at her.
After all, the Jade Tortoise's defensive capabilities are quite good; it won't be effective unless it pierces flesh.
Xuan Shen was a doting tortoise, and as soon as Shushu finished speaking, it understood what Shushu wanted to do.
Not only was it not angry that the sweet potato wanted to push it out to block the thorns, but it was overjoyed. As it quickly grew to the size of a face, it also became a very conscientious protector of its father.
It stopped chattering and stared intently at the approaching group of Spiny Flame Sunflowers. Its senses were on high alert, ready to immediately take action and shield itself from any thorns it encountered.
Shushu was so moved that she almost burst into tears on the spot. She kept thinking to herself that she hadn't adopted this son in vain. He would really step up when needed and protect her from any trouble.
However, Xuan Shen's preparations were ultimately unnecessary, as the Spiny Sunflowers possessed exceptional self-control and not a single one went out of control.
The reason they came was because they heard that Shushu had returned to his clan. As former rivals and teammates, they naturally wanted to come and see him, as if they were old friends catching up.
It was only with Rabbit's help that Shushu finally understood what was going on.
Then, the sweet potato began its handshake journey, shaking hands with each leaf that the prickly ash palm extended.
The Spiny Sunflowers originally wanted to hug each other, but it was too much of a test for Sweet Potato's little heart, and Sweet Potato felt that she couldn't take it.
After some back and forth, the two sides reached a peaceful agreement and compromised, with the hug turning into a handshake.
It could be considered a handshake, although there were quite a few hands involved.
Soon, the yam plant had a friendly chat with each of the hundreds of prickly ash plants.
Having achieved his goal, the leader, Thorn Flame Sunflower, with the air of a true boss, bid farewell to Millet Yam and Flower Plate, and then led his group of underlings away slowly, just as they had come.
Only when their figures became tiny dots did everyone breathe a sigh of relief. Some patted their chests with their hands and claws, while others patted their chests with their wings, and the scene quickly became lively again.
Shushu chatted with his friends for a while, promising to see them again later, before the little ones reluctantly let him go.
Led by Xu Ruoyun, Shushu continued towards the main hall of the main peak.
Because of the presence of a group of dragons, Lingjun followed them.
As for Shushu's cheap son, after many years, he finally saw Shushu again. No amount of persuasion could persuade him. He was determined to stay with Shushu and refused to leave her side for even a moment.
Upon learning that there were also rat parents among the group, Xuan Shen Zai Zai immediately called them grandpa and grandma without any instruction, which made Shu Li Shu Mai so happy that he couldn't stop smiling.
Without any formality, he immediately called Xuan Shen "my dear grandson" and gave him a very generous gift: a storage bag full of food.
Both sides were eager to be on good terms, and the relationship between the grandfather and grandson improved rapidly, as if they had taken some kind of accelerator. As soon as Xiao Xuanshen put on a sad face, Shuli and Shumai couldn't hold back any longer and turned to join in comforting Shushu.
There was no other way, so in the end, Shushu had no choice but to carry his clingy son to the main hall.
Knowing that Shushu Luli and his sect had been reunited after a long separation, the Dragon Clan thoughtfully waited for them in the side hall. Only after they had exchanged pleasantries and greetings with their sect elders did they go to pay their respects.
Without any pretense, Long Ji stepped forward and stated very frankly the reason for their visit: they had come for Ling Jun.
Perhaps it was to show sincerity, or perhaps to demonstrate that the dragons had no intention of harming Lingjun.
The dragons not only brought their clan monument, but also made a solemn oath to Heaven, proving that they had no intention of harming Lingjun.
In addition, they also truthfully informed Liuyue Sect and Lingjun Benlong.
Since its disappearance, the dragon clan and Lingjun's parents have been wandering through various worlds of the Great Vault Realm, trying to find it, and have never given up on it.
As for why Lingjun's parents are no longer seen, it's because years ago, the two dragons could no longer suppress their cultivation and had to ascend to the upper realm.
Even after the two dragons ascended to heaven, the dragon race never gave up the search. Every dragon on Dragon Island knew that they had a little ancestor outside.
This is why Long Yi was so excited when he smelled the dragon's aura on the glutinous rice and learned that the dragon's name was Ling Jun.
Upon learning all this, both the members of the Liuyue Sect and Lingjun himself felt a sense of melancholy.
Then, Lingjun didn't hide anything and told about its experience and its preparation to reshape its body.
Upon hearing this, the dragons of the dragon race all expressed their willingness to help.
Next, the matter was discussed, and it was finally decided that Lingjun's body would be reconstructed in half a month.
