Many descendants

"Close your eyes, count to one hundred, and your older brother and sister will come back." Ziqi patted his horn. "Count slowly."

"Okay." Little Seventeen closed his eyes. "One, two, three..."

He had just counted to twenty when a group of cubs appeared around him.

Little Ba landed precisely in his special nest.

The little golden dragon flew out of the eggshell, grew bigger and bigger, circled the roof of the palace once, and then flew into the air through the window.

Xiao Qi then jumped onto Zi Qi's shoulder with practiced ease, and then climbed onto his head, saying in a coquettish tone, "Father, Xiao Qi missed you so much, it hurts my heart."

Ziqi, whose attention was originally drawn to the little golden dragon, laughed when she heard his words, "Father misses you too."

He took her off his head and examined her closely. "She looks exactly the same as when I left."

"Greetings, Uncle Zi." Grape knelt on one knee and performed the courteous greeting to Zi Qi.

Ziqi nodded. "I've already called your father over. Wait a little longer and get to know Xiao Shiqi."

As soon as Xiao Qi returned, she noticed Xiao Shiqi. "Is that my little brother Shiqi?"

Little Seventeen's eyes darted from one thing to another, unable to take it all in.

But what attracted his attention even more was the golden dragon that flew out.

"Hello, Seventh Sister, I'm Little Seventeen." Little Seventeen jumped around happily. He had heard his father say that Seventh Sister looked just like his mother.

Xiao Qi tilted her head and looked at him, "You're a divine beast."

"How did Seventh Sister know?" Little Seventeen asked, glancing at her.

Xiao Qi didn't answer, but jumped onto Xiao Shiqi's back. "Come on, let's take Sister Qi to catch Xiao Jin."

Immediately, Xiao Shiqi carried Xiao Qi on his back and ran away.

Ziqi smiled slightly. Xiaoqi had just returned and immediately reclaimed her position as the most authoritative heir of the Beast Emperor Palace.

Little Seventeen, the little tyrant, instantly became Little Seven's mount, obeying and commanding...

Several flew away, but inside the hall remained the silent Little Eight, the obedient Grape, as well as Yu Xuan, Yu Shi Shi, and Fa Se.

Zi Qi looked at Zulu's three children. They appeared to be a mix of rabbit and rat races, and their talents were somewhat lacking. However, with Su Yan around, even with rare and precious materials, she could raise them to the Spirit Rank.

"Hello, Uncle Zi." Yu Xuan, Yu Shi Shi, and Fa Se, the three children, did not call him Uncle Zi, but followed Grape's way of addressing him and called him Uncle in unison.

Ziqi nodded, then handed them the three small storage bags she had prepared. "Hmm, a little gift for meeting you."

"Thank you, Uncle Zi," the three children replied politely and respectfully.

"Good girl, there are some snacks in the side hall, go and have some." Ziqi had already had snacks and delicacies prepared.

The three little ones' eyes lit up when they saw the delicious food; after all, they were still children and couldn't resist the temptation of food...

Grape didn't go with them, nor did she run around with Xiaoqi and the others. Instead, she curled up next to Xiaoba, being very well-behaved.

Ziqi smiled and asked, "Grape, where's Manman?"

That fiery girl didn't come back.

Grape stood up, swayed, and replied, "Manman's tail was burned off by Twelfth Brother, so she won't be with us yet. She'll wait until her tail grows back before coming back."

"...This child has really had a lot of bad luck." Ziqi couldn't help but chuckle.

Yu Yan rushed into the palace. "Your Majesty, there is a golden dragon outside, and Little Seventeen is carrying Sister Su."

Zi Qi said, "That's not Yan Yan, it's my daughter Xiao Qi. Her beast form is the same as Yan Yan's. Also, that golden dragon is Xiao Ba's guardian beast, and it's also my child. Don't worry about them."

"But the people in the city all knelt down and kowtowed to the golden dragon..."

"..." Ziqi sighed, "I'll issue a notice later. By the way, has Zong Sili arrived yet?"

"He's here; he's observing the golden dragon."

"Okay, let him come over."

The Minister of Rites entered the hall.

He immediately spotted the six-tailed deer-like creature standing on the ground, looking up at him.

I was stunned for a moment.

Grape retrieved Zongshi Li's soul memories from the small storage bag...

Zong Sili closed his eyes, and only opened them after a long time.

Looking at the grapes, he squatted down, opened his arms, and called out in a nasal voice, "Son, come here."

Grape threw herself into his arms, nuzzling against him, "Father, I'm back."

"Yes, welcome back." Zong Sili hugged him, then bowed to Ziqi. "I'll take Grape back first, and come to see you again tomorrow."

“Go ahead.” Ziqi nodded.

"Goodbye, Uncle Purple," Grape said obediently.

"Okay, remember to come tomorrow," Ziqi said with a smile. Grape was really sensible.

As for his own... Xiao Ba, he is as steady as a bell and as steadfast as a mountain.

The others are chasing each other in the air...

……

"Mother, will my tail grow back?"

He hung his head, looking quite dejected.

This child has become a bit withdrawn lately.

Su Yan looked at the bare, bright red flesh of the buttocks exposed under the bandages, took out the ointment she had prepared beforehand, and applied it evenly.

I also applied some to the top of my head.

I don't know when, but the few hairs on the top of my head have disappeared again.

"It's alright, you can go back to see your father and grandmother after you've healed." Su Yan gently stroked her slender neck.

Then they dressed her in a skirt that resembled a tail feather, covering her bald tail.

Xiao Shi walked over to Manman and patted her head. "Manman isn't ugly. Manman is very pretty now."

Manman immediately perked up, "Really?"

Then, looking at his fake tail, he felt frustrated again...

"It's all because of you," Far said softly, handing Su Yan a bottle of elixir that could heal feather injuries. "Try this."

Su Yan took it, "It's normal for them to be roughhousing and not know their own strength."

Little Ten hugged Fal, her voice sweet and innocent, "Father, I dream about you all the time."

Hearing this, Su Yan immediately got goosebumps... She quickly waved her hand, "Alright, alright, I know you two have a deep father-daughter bond, let's go, let's go."

"I'll go to the kitchen and prepare some good food for the children." Far carried Xiao Shi away.

Manman nestled in Su Yan's arms and fell asleep peacefully.

Su Yan looked at the little Qilin Twelve with its head bowed to the side...

"Come here." Su Yan beckoned to him.

Little Twelve tentatively leaned closer, "Mother, I was wrong. I won't spit fire on my sister anymore."

Su Yan patted him, "It's not your fault. You're a divine beast, and your fire is more powerful than Manman's. So you have to take that into account when you're playing."

"I understand, Mother." Little Twelve nuzzled against Su Yan ingratiatingly.

Su Yan hugged him tightly. "Manman is your older sister, she won't hold it against you. It's just that her tail doesn't look very nice right now, but once it grows back, she'll be that 'arrogant and domineering' older sister again."

"I like Sister Manman."

"Yeah, let's have lots of fun together in the future."

"Mother, I really didn't mean it."

"Mother knows, our little twelfth is the most gentle and honest." Su Yan kissed the little twelfth's forehead, and only breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that his mood had improved.

As for the remaining Little Nine and Little Thirteen, they wandered around with Little Eleven and eventually went to the kitchen. They could faintly hear Cecilia's exclamation and Far's explanation to her.

Little Fourteen and Little Fifteen... these two are heavy sleepers. They only opened their eyes for the sake of the group photo.

Even with her eyes open, Little Fourteen has black fur and black eyes, making her look like a black ball in the photo. Little Fifteen is much more photogenic, with a beautiful, fluffy white fox tail and delicate features. Apart from Little Ten, she is the prettiest.

At first, Xiaoqi and Xiaoshi liked to pester them to play, but now they dare not provoke them easily.
