Little Hua immediately began to struggle with all her might, thrashing against the restraints.
"No! Let me go! Please let me go!" she wailed, her voice echoing heartbreakingly across the snowy peak.
"I want to see Female Master! I want to see Stove! I want to see the cubs!"
But no matter how much she cried, begged, and thrashed, nobody released their grip on her. This wasn’t because they did not love her, but rather because they loved her far too much to risk her life.
Nearby, her mother was crying quietly as well, her leaves drooping sadly toward the frozen ground.
Watching her only daughter struggle and scream like this made her feel as though her own heart was being violently torn apart.
Little Hua was her only child.
Among rare spiritual plants, having offspring was an extremely difficult and miraculous thing.
Spiritual plants could not reproduce easily like regular vegetation or beastmen; every single child required an immense amount of pure essence, decades of patience, and a massive sacrifice of the parents’ own life force.
Many spiritual plants spent their entire centuries-long lives without ever having a single sprout.
Her mother and father had waited for a very long time before Little Hua finally sprouted from the soil. She was their most precious treasure...their only daughter.
As for the fifteen spiritual plants surrounding her right now, they were not actually her biological brothers.
All of them belonged to the same large clan. Their stern grandfather was the supreme leader of the entire clan, and under him were fifteen different family branches.
Little Hua’s uncles and aunts each had their own single children over the years. Those fifteen spiritual plants were actually her cousins.
However, because the clan lived completely isolated and grew up tight-knit in the hidden valleys, they had always treated each other as true brothers and sisters.
And because Little Hua was the youngest and smallest child in the entire clan, everyone completely doted on her. She was the undisputed little princess of the family.
That was exactly why the entire clan had gone into a panicked frenzy when she suddenly disappeared months ago.
They had desperately searched high and low, scaling dangerous cliffs and traversing unknown territories. Not a single person had been willing to give up on her.
Now that they had finally found their precious little princess alive and well, there was absolutely no way they would ever let her leave their sight again.
Meanwhile, Little Hua continued to cry bitterly, her small green leaves trembling as she was forced to move away from the valley.
She looked toward the distant horizon where Dragon Beast City lay, her heart completely filled with sadness.
She had no idea that at this very moment, down in the snowy plains, Su Qinglan, Stove, and all her beast husbands were also desperately braving the freezing storm, shouting her name and searching for her.
Both sides were desperately looking for each other, yet neither side knew just how far apart the cruel hands of fate had already pulled them.
Night had already fallen over Dragon Beast City, and the temperature had dropped even further, turning the crisp air into a biting frost.
The howling cold wind swept relentlessly across the snow-covered ground, making everyone’s faces turn bright red and numb from the freezing weather.
