A group of Dongxu clan children had taken a great liking to the beasts and often pleaded to play with them. These children, though considered young by the clan, were still cultivators at the Core Condensation and Nascent Soul realms.
As such they were physically tough enough to handle the beasts' rough games.
Within a day, the beasts and children were inseparable.
The children loved Little Shrubby's flame tricks, though they were warned not to touch his fur when he heated up. They adored the twins who darted around like living streaks of white and black light. The twins would toss the children into the air gently, letting them descend slowly, only to zoom in and catch them before they touched the ground.
There were shrieks of joy every time.
Even the elders watching them shook their heads helplessly. "Youngsters have no fear," one elder muttered, while another took notes, wondering if this sort of exercise would build character among their disciples.
