Last time he returned from Beiyuan, Su Ping hadn't let Little Crow forage on its own again after seeing its special condition.
Although Little Crow wasn't one of his Contracted Beasts, it was still one of the important Pet Beasts of the Heart of Myriad Spirits.
Aside from his few Contracted Beasts and Old Sha, it was one of the closest to him.
Little Crow's condition required a replenishment of Ancient Fire Elemental Energy from within the Fire Cultivation Realm for its reverse-evolution. So, Su Ping had kept the little creature in the Beast Taming Space all this time.
Thus, after seeing Little Crow's special situation, Su Ping hastily apologized and departed first.
Neither Liu Fuhai nor Ding Yan said anything about Su Ping's hurried departure.
Old Liu made some brief preparations and planned to come over that evening. As for Ding Yan, he decided to stay and watch a few people complete their assessments before joining them later, which wouldn't be too late.
