Chapter 582: Chapter 580: Counting Soldiers and Generals, Three Went Missing
After the war in the Eastern Immortal Realm finally ended, Xiaojiu and Xiaoshi brought their brothers and sisters back home.
But everything here had also come to an end.
Sally had never imagined her children could be useful on the battlefield, and moreover, they looked quite impressive—as the majority of them were Divine Beasts.
“Mom, Little Dot is so awesome! He popped out from under Uncle Zi’s battle robe, and the Demon Clan’s army knelt down, trembling in surrender. If Uncle Zi had not spared those who yielded, the Demon Realm would’ve been completely doomed!” Xiaoshi excitedly told Sally.
Sally was stunned, “Little Dot went there too?”
“Yes,” Manman replied. “He sneaked in invisibly. Mom, you have no idea how amazing Little Dot’s Invisibility Technique is. We couldn’t find him at all. Uncle Zi carried him all the way without noticing.”
Frans was also amazed, “Why would they kneel to Little Dot?”
Sally said, “He is an Ancient Emperor Beast. You will understand once you see him.”
“Ancient Emperor Beast?” Frans clearly did not understand. “What is that?”
“It’s a very old, ridiculously high-status race. Even You Hao and Qing Linghuan have to kneel before him,” Sally replied.
Frans’s interest was piqued. “When can I meet him?”
“We were going to bring Little Dot over, but Father Emperor adamantly refused,” Xiaoqi replied.
Sally said with a smile, “Yes, before it was Xiaoba who was the apple of your father emperor’s eye, but now it has been replaced by Little Dot.”
“Brother is really something. He’s at God Rank now yet still won’t come out. I think he just can’t break the shell. Mom, why don’t you help him shatter it?” Little Shiqi suggested.
Frans said, “Little Shiqi, you can’t do that. Breaking out prematurely, if his body isn’t fully developed, it could lead to deficiency. It’s best to wait for him to break out on his own.”
“Never mind, let him be,” Sally said as she took out some paper from the System Space. “Come on, write down your reflections on this God and Demon War. Also detail which Secret Techniques you used, analyze and review so that you can perform even better next time, identify your shortcomings, and make corrections.”
A group of kids scattered immediately, like birds and beasts fleeing.
…
Yunmeng Island.
Sally, taking Little Shier along, went to see Zhu Sanlang.
As Little Shier was being summoned back to the Divine Realm, they had come for one last reunion with Zhu Sanlang before the departure.
Zhu Sanlang had been immersed in strenuous cultivation; after the God and Demon War, his cultivation base had reached the Quasi-Divine Rank. He was just one Ascension Divine Tribulation away from gaining Divine Status and ascending to the Divine Realm.
Right now, he was basically accumulating energy and vitality with Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, awaiting the heavenly tribulation.
“Dad—” Little Shier shouted at Zhu Sanlang, who was tending to flowers and plants.
Zhu Sanlang thought he was hallucinating. Only when he followed the sound and saw his son, and Sally too, did he rub his eyes hard in disbelief. “Am I seeing things?”
Sally laughed, “Little Shier is going back to the Divine Realm. I brought him here to see you.”
“Is that so?” Zhu Sanlang’s eyes showed reluctance.
He knew his son preferred to be with Sally and his siblings, so under the guise of cultivation, he let Little Shier go to Sally, not needing to follow him.
Sally took the other children out of the System Space, “This time’s monthly test will be on Yunmeng Island.”
Zhu Sanlang froze for a moment and then was overcome with joy. “I’ll start preparing right away.”
“No rush, the test is the day after tomorrow. You can play on the island for these two days.”
“Alright, then I’ll go prepare some delicious food.”
Yunmeng Island, much like Jiushen Mountain, was teeming with Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures. The little ones ran around playing while stuffing their favorite finds into Little Storage Bags.
Xiaoshi seemed to have discovered something, and after whispering with Little Shisan, they started to dig a hole… Soon both of them were out of sight.
Little Miqi, curious about where they’d gone, and seeing the big hole they had dug, followed them inside. 𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒑𝒖𝒃.𝙘𝙤𝒎
When mealtime arrived, Sally started to roll call her troops.
This one is missing three.
“Where are Little Shiyi, Little Shisan, and Little Miqi?” Sally asked.
Putao wagged its tail, “They’re digging a hole.”
Sally found the hole that Little Shiyi and Little Shisan had dug and sent Xiaoqi in to take a look.
Soon Xiaoqi ran back, “Mom, there’s a Spatial Barrier inside, and Xiaoqi can’t get through.”
No wonder they didn’t return. They must have entered the Barrier, and Little Miqi could pass through any Barrier.
“Mom probably knows where they are.”
“Where did my brothers and sisters go?” Xiaoqi asked curiously, wanting to go as well.
Sally led the children into the Teleportation Array, and after a flash of white light, they arrived at the tomb of the former Island Masters beneath the island.
The Dragon Turtle bearing the Merit Stele was just as Sally had first seen it. Waiting for each uninvited visitor to the tomb, it seemed to have something to say.
Xiaoqi stared at the Dragon Turtle for a while then said to Sally, “Mom, there’s an egg in its belly.”
“What?” Sally was astonished.
Xiaoqi fumbled around, and somehow, after pressing something, the Merit Stele on the turtle’s back slowly moved aside, revealing the cavity beneath.
“There really is an egg.” Sally bowed to the Dragon Turtle first, then took the egg from within.
At first glance it looked like stone, but a gentle tap caused a layer of stone skin to peel away, revealing the golden-green skin underneath.
“This Dragon Turtle has been here since ancient times, and this egg has yet to hatch… Compared to it, Xiaoba is nothing at all,” Sally said, looking towards Little Shiqi who was carrying Xiaoba.
Little Shiqi glanced back at his full brother and suddenly blurted out, “A millennium for a turtle, ten thousand years for a tortoise, whoever doesn’t hatch is a dog.”
Sally couldn’t help but laugh, “…Where did you learn that from.”
But Xiaoba remained motionless.
Sally handed the egg to Xiaoqi, “You found it, so the egg is yours now.”
“Okay.” Xiaoqi accepted the egg.
Sally continued leading them deeper inside.
When she was pregnant, Zhu Sanlang frequently hunted the Rare and Exotic Beasts inside, so now it was empty, with nothing left.
There were only Strange Flowers and Exotic Plants, emitting various colors of light in the dark tombs. A group of little cubs were busily collecting these plants…
Suddenly, an earthquake sound came from the tomb chamber deeper inside, it was the Earth Fissure Technique from the Earth Element Secret Technique.
Sally hurriedly led the children over.
Little Miqi emerged from the innermost tomb chamber cradling a box emitting Divine Light, followed by Little Shiyi and Little Shisan, racing out.
Sally asked urgently, “What happened?”
“Mom, hurry, this place is collapsing,” Little Miqi shouted.
Sally didn’t dare delay, she immediately activated the Teleportation Array and took the children away.
No sooner had they left on their front foot… the tomb chamber began to collapse on their back foot.
Zhu Sanlang had prepared a large table of delicious food; just as he finished setting the bowls and chopsticks, he felt the ground shake and immediately protected the food.
Sally and the children appeared on the Teleportation Array on the platform.
Zhu Sanlang hurried over, “What just happened? Are you all alright?”
Sally replied somewhat sheepishly, “It’s just… the children went on an adventure in the tombs and accidentally caused a collapse.”
Zhu Sanlang: “…”
