The whole story was clear, and both sides were somewhat emotional. Xiao Taohan had an attachment to the three ferocious beasts, but even more so, she was reluctant to part with Shushu.
Over the years, with the help of Shushu and the others who pulled it out of the abyss, it had long since become accustomed to life outside and to the days spent with Shushu and its friends.
Therefore, it ultimately refused the three beasts' invitation to move back to the ruins.
The three beasts weren't angry. After thinking about it, they realized that since the ruins had been opened, they were all ready to be revealed.
Without even discussing it, the three ferocious beasts exchanged a glance and made their decision: they would pledge allegiance to their little brother.
Anyway, they've stayed in these ruins long enough; it's good for them to go out and see the world.
So, the three beasts suddenly lunged forward and simultaneously and tacitly moved to the side of the yam.
The eldest, Qiongqi, spoke first: "Um, young fellow Daoist, may I call you Shushu?" This was his way of trying to get closer to the other person.
Shushu was feeling a little uneasy as the three ferocious beasts stared intently at him.
But seeing the other person's fawning smile and hearing that husky voice, the feeling of excitement was suppressed and replaced by a desire to laugh.
But now was not a good time to laugh, so Shushu could only think through all his sad thoughts before he managed not to break down in laughter at the burly man's hushed tone.
He pinched his thigh and replied as normally as possible, "Senior, you don't need to be so polite, just call me Shushu."
Qiongqi immediately seized the opportunity, and the burly man's voice cracked again: "Hello, Shushu." The change in tone was so pronounced that Shushu stopped laughing, his face turning red from trying not to laugh.
But the other party seemed oblivious: "Shushu, look, you've only just ascended to the Immortal Realm, your cultivation isn't high yet." He paused, looking at Shushu as if waiting for an answer.
What else could Shushu do but pinch his thigh hard, trying his best to keep his tone calm, and nod: "Yes."
Qiongqi continued in his burly, high-pitched voice, "Is the Immortal Realm very dangerous?"
The sorghum nodded: "Yes."
Qiongqi, in a burly voice, asked again, "Do you need to go out and gain experience?"
Shushu's eyes began to redden: "Yes." At the same time, she prayed in her heart, "Get to the point, get to the point." She was about to burst out laughing.
Fortunately, it's unclear whether Heaven heard her prayers or Chaos saw something.
With a twitch of its back, it pushed Qiongqi and Taotie aside, and looked earnestly at Shushu: "We want to follow you."
Finally, the purpose was revealed, and Shushu breathed a sigh of relief.
Before she could relax, Qiongqi returned, first pushing Chaos to the sidelines and then firmly occupying the center position, continuing to promote itself in a high-pitched voice.
"We four ferocious beasts have decent cultivation levels. Even if a Celestial Emperor came, we could still put up a fight."
The Taotie, unusually, didn't argue with it and chimed in, "We can also be thugs. If you don't like someone, just shout 'Yo-ho!' and we'll be the first to rush in and beat them up."
After all, as ferocious beasts, they are inherently savage and love to fight. The creatures in the ruins have long been beaten into submission by them.
To be honest, whether it's Taotie, Qiongqi, or even Chaos, they all yearn for the outside world and want to find some new opponents to play with.
However, she didn't say the last part, worried that if she revealed her true nature, Shushu would look down on them.
Of course, this doesn't mean that Shushu has to agree or sign any contract before they can go out.
From the moment the ruins were revealed, they were already free to leave them at any time.
They wanted to follow Shushu for two reasons: firstly, Shushu had a contract with Tao, and secondly, they had a good impression of Shushu.
The third reason is that Shushu has powerful backers in the immortal realm. If they can get a position next to Shushu, they will have support when they go out in the future.
There was nothing they could do; they had a fearsome reputation and were completely unfamiliar with the Immortal Realm. Although they weren't afraid of those cultivators, they could still defeat Immortal Emperors.
But if you can find someone to rely on, only a fool would choose to go it alone and fight by himself. That's just how realistic it is.
The millet and potatoes weren't stupid either. After a little thought, they could guess most of their thoughts and plans, even if they couldn't guess everything.
After glancing at his senior brother and receiving Lu Li's affirmative nod, Shushu didn't hold back and chose to get straight to the point.
"You can follow me, but I have two requirements: first, you cannot kill indiscriminately and commit atrocities; second, you cannot harm innocent lives, otherwise I will not accept you."
Although she was only a Golden Immortal, it was a bit too arrogant for her to make demands on several ferocious beasts that could fight Immortal Emperors one-on-one.
But this is her bottom line. She has various forces behind her, and she cannot and will not allow them to be disgraced because of her, or for her to cause trouble for innocent beings in the immortal realm.
Fortunately, the three ferocious beasts were all of good temperament and not the kind of bloodthirsty and tyrannical creatures. When they heard about Shushu's conditions, they all agreed without hesitation and even took the initiative to make a vow.
Of course, the people they vowed not to attack did not include those who picked fights or provoked them; as for such people, Shushu wouldn't care how they retaliated.
And so the matter was settled. The three ferocious beasts were now under the control of Shushu. However, no contract was signed between the two parties, mainly because Shushu did not want to.
In fact, after ascending to the Immortal Realm, Shushu had been thinking about breaking the contract with everyone.
Over the years, she has come to believe that even without a contract, they would not betray each other. On the contrary, having a contract sometimes brings many restrictions.
She has been preparing for the dissolution of the contract recently, but there are many things needed for the dissolution, and she hasn't gathered them all yet.
