When Shushu came to her senses from that mysterious feeling, she saw a group of people looking at her and Lu Li with curiosity.
To be precise, all eyes were on her, and their gazes held a burning intensity she couldn't comprehend.
Feeling uncomfortable under these gazes, Shushu darted into Lu Li's shirt without a second thought and slipped inside.
When she felt the burning heat coming from behind her, she realized what she had just done. The whole mouse froze instantly. Was she being a pervert?
"Master, Mistress, fellow disciples, Junior Sister must have been frightened by you all. You can look away now."
The little potato's action startled not only himself but also Lu Li, but he immediately laughed after sensing the little guy's stiffness.
Then he naturally soothed Shushu through his clothes before speaking to the elders who were still staring intently at them. His gentle tone revealed a doting affection that he himself was unaware of.
Unexpectedly, his actions only made those gazes more attentive; the sweet potato could be felt even through his clothes.
"Alright, let's go to the main hall to talk first."
Finally, it was Liu Yu who came out to help, temporarily diverting everyone's attention so that they could leave one by one and go to the main hall.
After arriving, everyone took their seats in turn, and then continued to look in Lu Li's direction.
Shushu had already come out and was pretending that nothing had happened, squatting on the coffee table next to Lu Li's seat.
Lu Li's hand was still gently stroking her hair, while the wide sleeves of his hand covered most of her figure.
"This must be the young apprentice my senior brother has taken on, is his name Shushu?"
Finally, one of the female elders couldn't help but ask first, her eyes full of love and joy as she looked at Shushu.
"Yes, this is my little apprentice, Shushu. I was planning to introduce her to you all tomorrow, but I didn't expect to meet her first." It was Liu Yu, who was at the head of the table, who answered her.
"Shushu, this is your second martial uncle, Shan Ling, the peak master of Danfeng." After answering the woman, Liu Yu introduced him to Shushu.
"Shushu greets Second Martial Uncle." Upon hearing this, Shushu disregarded his shyness or embarrassment and immediately stood on the small table, respectfully bowing and greeting the woman.
"Good, good, good, Shushu. This is a gift from your second uncle. If you want any pills in the future, just come to Danfeng to find me."
Shan Ling clearly liked Shu Shu very much. As soon as Shu Shu bowed, Shan Ling beamed with joy and even presented her with a storage ring, which she placed directly in front of Shu Shu.
"Okay, thank you, Second Uncle." Shushu quickly thanked him as well.
"Little sweet potato, I am your fourth uncle, Xiong Yan. If you want any weapon in the future, you can come to the weapon-refining peak and I will make it for you. This is a gift from your fourth uncle. You can take it and play with it."
Just as Shushu finished thanking him, another storage ring appeared in front of him, along with a rough voice.
Shushu looked in the direction of the voice and saw a muscular man with very strong arms, the kind of arms that would be used to swing an iron hammer and forge weapons. Shushu quickly thanked him.
Next, he met Chongming, the fifth senior uncle of Zhenfeng, and Hu Heng, the sixth senior uncle of Fufeng, and also received two storage rings as a gift.
Both Fifth Uncle and Sixth Uncle have gentle and refined appearances, but Sixth Uncle looks more androgynous.
Without exception, all the senior uncles were very handsome, perhaps because of their cultivation.
After giving their gifts, the senior uncles didn't stay long. They told Lu Li to take Shushu to their peak to meet the other senior brothers and sisters when he had time, and then they all left, as they were all peak masters and busy.
Seeing this, Liu Yu and Liu Ying handed their youngest apprentice over to their eldest apprentice, Lu Li, and then went back to their work.
As the sect leader, Liu Yu went out to have some fun for a while, but when he returned, he still had a lot of things to deal with.
As for Liu Ying, as the peak master of the Legal Affairs Peak, she is also in charge of the resource allocation and task arrangement of the entire Liuyue Sect, so she is naturally very busy.
Seeing that everyone had left, Lu Li helped Shushu put away all the storage rings she had received before taking her to the Inner Sect Affairs Hall to collect her identity jade token.
This time, Lu Li didn't put the sweet potato on his shoulder, but instead put it directly in his pocket.
When he put the sweet potato into his clothes, she was a little uncomfortable, but after finding that Lu Li didn't seem to mind, she gradually relaxed. She even had the leisure to peek out and look around.
The shrew, who was looking around, didn't notice that Lu Li couldn't hide the smile on his lips after seeing that she had completely adapted.
It can only be said that the connection between people is a very mysterious thing. Lu Li liked Shushu very much at first sight, and even felt that she came for him.
This fondness lasted for a very long time, until it took root, sprouted, and grew into a towering tree.
Of course, that's a story for another time.
When Lu Li brought Shushu to the affairs hall, the manager there had already received the news and prepared Shushu's identity jade token and the resources the sect had given her.
Upon seeing Lu Li arrive with a spirit rat, and knowing that it was the new disciple the sect leader had mentioned, they immediately handed over the prepared items.
As for why the sect leader's little disciple was a little spirit mouse, he didn't ask any further questions, and just closed his eyes and did his own thing.
Throughout the entire sect, there are very few who are not spirit beasts, it's just that the outside world doesn't know that.
Speaking of this, we must mention the sect leader's prowess. The identity jade tokens he and Peak Master Xiong Yan crafted together could actually conceal their spirit beast identities and help them maintain their human forms.
Over the years, they have relied on this identity jade token to evade the detection of those cultivators time and time again, and have developed safely to this day.
Of course, those who know the actual situation of the Liuyue Sect have all undergone rigorous testing and are ensured that their information will not be leaked.
Otherwise, all those high-level spirit beasts in the entire sect would have been devoured alive by those people long ago.
Of course, it's also possible that the sect leader's abilities were so strong that he turned the spirit beasts into alchemists and weapon refiners, thus dispelling the suspicions of those people.
After all, apart from the Liuyue Sect, no other spirit beasts on the Yulin Continent have ever been known to learn these human skills.
Thinking of this, the manager couldn't help but feel proud that he had passed through layers of examinations and entered the inner sect of the Liuyue Sect.
If he knew at this moment that the two people in front of him had been directly accepted into the sect by Liu Yu, he would probably be green with envy.
However, Liu Yu doesn't just accept any spirit beast; he also has to consider the quality of the beast!
Moreover, apart from Liu Ying, no one, human or beast, knew that Liu Yu actually had another innate skill: the ability to sense a person's goodness, evil, and loyalty.
This is why, after a brief conversation with Shushu, he chose to take her as his disciple and bring her into the Liuyue Sect.
So far, Liu Yu's innate skill has never resulted in a misperception of a spirit beast.
At this moment, Shushu was unaware of all these things happening behind the scenes. With Lu Li's help, she was pricking her paws, preparing to have the identity jade token recognize its owner.
