Chapter 702: Chapter 700 Stealing Treasures to Travel ~
“No wonder the travel cost was so expensive!” Sally realized.
She had wandered with her children for ten thousand years, never stepping out of time. The fact that time in the System Space flowed much differently than in the Beast World showed how far the distance was!
“One year here is only one day over there,” Sally told Zi Qi.
Then, she looked down at Xiao Mumu and asked, “You missed out on your childhood growth, will you blame mommy?”
“I won’t blame you,” Xiao Mumu shook her head. However, her clear, large eyes lacked real affection and were somewhat distant and estranged.
“Xiao Mumu is such a good girl.” Sally tenderly kissed her snow-white and pretty forehead and then looked at Welly, “It must have been tough for you to take care of them both by yourself.”
“Not at all, only Xiao Mumu usually follows me. Xiao Zhaozhao spends most of her time in the Eastern Immortal Palace, I have to thank Your Majesty for that,” Welly bowed in thanks to Zi Qi.
Zi Qi waved his hand, “What are you being polite for, Xiao Zhaozhao is my daughter too.”
At this moment, Xiao Zhaozhao was off playing with Little Bell and Little Beibei.
The three little mice, though their fur colors were different, clearly looked like sisters.
Envy shone in Xiao Mumu’s clear, large eyes. She obviously wanted to play with them, but compared to them, she had already grown quite tall and big.
Sally held her on her lap and said, “Do you want to learn the Transformation Technique, Xiao Mumu? Then you could become like them.”
“I do!” Xiao Mumu immediately answered.
Sally smiled, “Alright, mommy will teach you the Transformation Technique another day.”
“Thank you, Mommy.” Xiao Mumu finally seemed a bit happier.
“Little Shiyi, Little Dot~ come here,” Sally called the two older ones.
“Mom, are you going to give out presents?” Little Shiyi rubbed his little front paws together and said with a sycophantic smile.
To Little Shiyi, not having seen Sally for over a decade didn’t matter. For them, slow-growing young ones, ten years was no different than ten days.
“There are presents, but we’ll wait until Mommy brings back your brothers and sisters from the Divine Realm, and we’ll distribute them together,” Sally said with a smile.
Gold sparkled in Little Shiyi’s eyes, “I’m going to tell Little Miqi right away.”
With that said, he ran off, completely forgetting why Sally had called him in the first place.
Little Dot remembered and asked, “Mommy, what’s up?”
Sally said to Zi Qi, “Their temperament, whether steady or not, all depends on their innate nature.”
“…” Zi Qi laughed, “No worries.”
Sally then told Little Dot, “Take your sister Xiao Mumu and play together.”
“Okay, got it, Mom.” Little Dot immediately walked over to Xiao Mumu’s side, “Mumu, let’s go dig a hole in the garden.”
As soon as the others heard about digging holes, they immediately responded, ready to join.
The bunch of kids ran off again.
“The growth of the Human Clan and the Beast Clan is very different,” Pei Xuan couldn’t help but remark, “both physically and mentally.”
Zi Qi’s eyes flickered as he looked at Sally; he had noticed Xiao Mumu’s reaction to Sally earlier, “Beast Clan cubs can naturally recognize and are very affectionate towards their own Father Beast or Mother Beast. But it seems the Human Clan has lost this blood intuition.”
“Hmm,” Sally felt it deeply, “Xiao Zhaozhao treats me just like the other children. That feeling is something that won’t change with time and distance. But Xiao Mumu, I was absent from her childhood…”
Sally suddenly thought of Little Shiliu. Wasn’t it the same? She had missed her entire growth, making herself like the closest stranger to her.
“Xiao Mumu just has that kind of personality, more reserved.” Welly hurried to explain, afraid that Sally wouldn’t like Xiao Mumu, “She might take after me.”
“She does take after you, and she looks a lot like you,” Sally said with a smile, “It’s alright, as long as she is happy and healthy. It’s my oversight.”
Then, looking outside, “I’ll take her with me for a while, later on.”
“Sure,” Welly agreed readily.
Outside, Xiao Mumu somewhat disdainfully shook off the dirt from her hands and eventually took out a shovel from her Little Storage Bag to dig the hole. Even taking out her Little Storage Bag didn’t seem necessary.
Xiao Zhaozhao came up to her, looked at her shovel, and then at the discarded Little Storage Bags, “Sister, I’m thirsty. Can you find Daddy and get me a bottle of water?”
“Okay.” Xiao Mumu put her little shovel away and went to get the water.
Little Shiyi came over, looked at the hole Xiao Mumu had dug, and said to Little Dot, “She doesn’t like digging holes. Shall we play poker later?”
“Sure,” Little Dot agreed.
Little Beibei and Little Bell poked their heads out from the Rat Hole, eyeing the hole Xiao Mumu had made.
Little Beibei said, “Brother Little Fengning clearly loves digging Rat Holes.”
Little Bell replied, “Because Brother Little Fengning only looks like a human, he’s actually not from the Human Clan. That’s what my dad said.”
“Little Shiliu sister is from the Human Clan, right?” Little Beibei said.
“Mhm. But Little Shiliu sister is obviously an adult already. When can we grow up?” Little Bell said.
Xiao Zhaozhao looked at Xiao Mumu, who had run over with several bottles of water, and let out a sigh.
…
The Eastern Immortal Palace became lively once again.
Sally had gone on a trip to the Divine Realm, secretly summoned the children back to the System Space, and returned with Little Miqi.
Zi Qi, upon seeing this, especially Little Xiaoba and Little Shiqi, his two sons, was very happy.
But after finding out that Sally had summoned them secretly without telling those Father Beasts, he hurriedly sent them Sound Transmission Talismans, telling them not to rush to look for the children.
In Jiaoyi Hall, several more chairs were added to the long table.
The children sat obediently around the table, waiting to receive their gifts…
This time Sally didn’t distribute the gifts one by one. Instead, she had prepared over a hundred Little Storage Bags, hung them on a rack, and let the children choose their favorite based on luck.
Xiaoqi was the first to rush over and grab one. n𝚘vp𝚞𝚋.com
After getting it, he dumped out the contents of the Little Storage Bag and found only a golden grape inside, which smelled… exceptionally sweet.
After taking a bite, his eyes went wide in astonishment!
Looking shocked at Sally, “Mother, what kind of treasure is this?”
Sally smiled, “Our Little Xiaoqi is just so lucky. That’s a World Tree fruit, extremely rare.”
Of the thirty-one Storage Bags, only one had a golden grape inside.
“Can I try?” Little Miqi also came over, took a bite, and then, with her sparkling angelic eyes, looked at Sally, “Mom~”
“Calling me Mom won’t help, I don’t have any more in stock~ However, I can take you to find this fruit,” Sally smiled and said.
Little Miqi nodded eagerly, “I want to go, I want to go.”
The other children also clamored to follow Sally.
“Given that the past travel expenses were too costly, this time Mother will take each of you on a nice trip around, although it can’t interfere with Mother’s work.”
Manman raised her wings, “Mother, can we play Aunt Xiaomei’s game? It’s been so long since we last played.”
“Sure, your Aunt Xiaomei would be thrilled,” Sally said, picking up Manman and kissing the tuft of hair on her head, “Our Manman is getting prettier and prettier.”
She had completely shed her grey fluff, and her feathers shone with the fresh glow of the morning sun, red and dazzling, accompanied by standard phoenix eyes. Stunning.
Manman nuzzled Sally, “All thanks to Mother’s good genes.”
“Haha~ Isn’t that the truth,” Sally said, stroking her luxurious feathers and then turning to look at Little Shiba.
Little Shiba had not yet molted and was in an awkward stage, looking unkempt, but was full of confidence, believing himself to be cool and handsome, the best in the world, unparalleled among phoenixes!
Little Xiaoshi poured out a small package from her own Little Storage Bag. It had a snow-white color with a delicately beautiful chain, adorned with an angel wings design, made as if tailored just for her.
Inside the small package were Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures as well as colorful candies, “Thank you, Mother, I really love this gift.”
One after another, Sound Transmission Talismans flew in from outside.
There were from Zong Silu, Qing Linghuan, You Hao, Rong Ruo, and even Zhu Sanlang… Ming Linyuan was currently in closed-door cultivation.
Without looking, she knew they were all coming to claim their children.
“Are there any babies who need to go back to the Divine Realm? If not, then we’re about to set off to travel other worlds~” Sally smiled and said.
Little Xiaoba excitedly jumped onto the table, “Mother, I want to go traveling too.”
“…” Was this child’s reaction a bit too delayed? He’d just realized it.
Sally picked him up from the table and kissed his forehead, her beautiful golden baby whom she adored.
“Alright, I’ll take you. By the way, where is your master?”
“My master is at the Ancestral Dragon Tomb. He said that after the Six Realms were divided, some places developed Ruins that needed to be cleared.”
“Ruins? What are those?”
“Broken rules.”
Little Miqi raised her hand, “I know, my Great Ancestor is clearing the Ruins.”
