I Have a Golden Crow

"Oh." Du Yu put down the cardboard box.

Then... let’s leave in a while.

The breakfast Xiaoyezi prepared was simple, but delicious.

Milk, fried eggs, slices of bread.

The truly bizarre thing was that the Golden Leaf didn’t use fire.

The milk was heated by the Golden Leaf, the eggs were fried by the Golden Leaf, and the bread was toasted by the Golden Leaf.

Spirit-level Demonic Plant, truly all-powerful!

Du Yu really felt that if he stayed at home for a few more days, he would soon be unable to take care of himself...

The rescue by the Golden Leaf was definitely worth it!

After breakfast, Du Yu went to the Sea Realm, threw everything to the Firethorn Tree, and immediately went to the Mountain Realm.

Lin Shiwei had long since completed her advancement, and joyfully, Li Mengnan took the baton from her third sister and continued to break through and advance at Black Sheep Ridge.

For the past 10 days, Du Yu would come to check every day, and everyone seemed like statues, almost unmoving.

This time was no exception. Seeing everyone still diligently cultivating, Du Yu summoned Bai Yujing and headed west.

About the inability to actively wield the Void Axe, Du Yu had always been melancholic.

Every morning after visiting the sect members, Du Yu would turn and head to the area of the Twin Trees, continuing to cultivate Spiritual Qi, and practiced all day long.

Only at late night did he selectively visit the Firethorn Residence and the 16th-floor home, both to rest and for companionship.

"Nai~~~" Accompanied by the sound of a deer calling, Du Yu rode the deer and fell into the Twin Tree area.

Letting Xiaobai play with its kin, Du Yu also arrived under the Twin Trees and played with "Little Hemp Flower" for a while.

Then he sat down under the tree and began a day of cultivation.

It seemed this sitting position would last all day, but unexpectedly, in the afternoon, Jia Rong Grass came looking.

"Master."

"Hmm?" Du Yu casually grasped a Deep Red Grass Leaf, still intensely absorbing Spiritual Qi, washing through his Kidney Meridian of Foot Shaoyin.

An aged voice imprinted in Du Yu’s mind: "Mengnan has successfully advanced, Master Qing is calling you."

"Oh?" Du Yu couldn’t help but smile with joy and immediately opened his eyes.

Jia Rong Grass: "Master Qing says to wait for you at the Peak of All Mountains."

"Got it~" Du Yu immediately activated the Mountain and Sea Bell.

The ten-kilometer journey didn’t need to be rushed; by opening the Heaven Gate, he could return to the Peak of All Mountains.

Not far away, Bai Yujing, who was accompanying her parents on a stroll, suddenly turned her head to look: "Nai~~~"

But she called too late.

Du Yu was already gone!

"Master!" The next moment, a dissatisfied voice echoed in Du Yu’s mind, "Did you forget something?"

True to being Little Sweet Sister, even her anger was adorable.

At this moment, Du Yu was plummeting from the sky~

"Ah!" Du Yu endured the intense feeling of weightlessness, the wind whistling past his ears, "No wonder I can’t fly up!"

Bai Yujing: "..."

"Huff~"

A series of runes emerged from Du Yu’s wrist, with a Yu Fire Talisman rapidly dropping below, then suddenly enlarging.

Du Yu stepped on Yu’s Shield, landing steadily on the mountain peak.

"Whew~" Du Yu finally breathed a sigh of relief.

At least he was a Demon Taming General; it would be too embarrassing to fall and get bruised.

He waited on the mountain peak for a while, and soon saw a group approaching majestically from high in the northern sky.

There were actually only five people in total.

But the aura of this group was quite astonishing; any one of them could give off the feeling of "capable of resisting a thousand troops."

"Master Qing." Du Yu greeted.

Yang Qingqing stood tall in the sky, looking down at her disciple: "Have you been neglecting your cultivation these days?"

"No." Du Yu responded, "I have been diligently cultivating under the Twin Trees every day, never slacking."

"Hmm." Yang Qingqing nodded with satisfaction.

Actually, Yang Qingqing possessed the Jade Gourd and didn’t need to stay at Black Sheep Ridge.

But after Li Mengnan’s arrival, Yang Qingqing felt her female disciple was somewhat under pressure, so she kept assisting her disciple.

No one would believe it if said aloud!

During the advancement of a Demon Taming General, Yang Qingqing was not just reaping some benefits but was aiding this Demon Taming General in breaking through advancement!

Li Mengnan, the youngest disciple in the sect, truly received an abundance of care.

"How is your relationship with Kui Chou, the Supreme?" Yang Qingqing asked, looking up at the dark clouds churning in the sky.

Du Yu: "We get along very well, Master Qing, rest assured."

"Good." A bit relieved, Yang Qingqing continued gazing at the dark clouds, softly repeating, "Good..."

The matter of the Supreme, undoubtedly her most concerning issue.

Du Yu looked up at the Immortal Master: "Master Qing, are you tired? Shall I take you back to the Sea Realm to rest?"

Yang Qingqing lowered her head to look at Du Yu: "In three days, we will set off for the Ashen World."

Du Yu: "Hmm?"

Yang Qingqing: "Since you insist on going, we’ll go together, and let your senior brothers and sisters see what the Twin Tree Realm looks like after defeat.

Three days is enough for you to prepare. You need to communicate well with Kui Chou, the Supreme, to ask it to come forth and protect us along the way.

Let’s go early and return early, Great Xia still needs us here."

Du Yu nodded heavily: "Yes!"

Yang Qingqing glanced down at the group of disciples: "This mission must not be disclosed to anyone, adjust your state within these three days."

"Yes!"

"Yes." Several voices responded simultaneously.

Yang Qingqing gently descended and looked at Du Yu: "Send me back to the Mountain Realm."

Du Yu asked: "Is Master Qing hungry?"

Yang Qingqing’s stern expression finally thawed, revealing a trace of a smile: "Let’s talk about it later. I’ll go back and take a nap first."

"Eh, okay." Du Yu flipped his palm and sent Master Qing back.

With the master’s departure, the group of disciples finally "came alive"!

Especially Li Mengnan, who suddenly seemed to know how to speak: "Du Yu, Du Yu~ Why was Kui Chou, the Supreme shouting a few days ago?

It scared me to death, almost closed my promotion window!"

Du Yu: "..."

"Speak up?" Li Mengnan leaned in, a little worried, "You didn’t argue with Kui Chou, the Supreme, did you?"

"No." Du Yu tilted his head, gestured eastward, "Over by the Dixiu Tree, a new Mountain Ghost Forest was built, and a group of Enchanting Demons moved in."

"Enchanting Demons?" The girl was quite astonished, while others’ eyes lit up.

This is a very rare Demon Beast Race!

"Kui Chou, the Supreme really likes that group of monkeys. On the day the Ghost Demon home was completed, it cheered to celebrate."

Du Yu casually explained, his gaze shifting between Nan and Wei, continuing: "Congratulations to both of you, for advancing to Demon Taming General·Minor Success."

Li Mengnan giggled, her bright smile a little sweet.

Hmm... and a bit silly~

Lin Shiwei didn’t say anything, but a small smile appeared on her face.

Du Yu looked at Senior Brother Fu: "Senior Sister has also advanced to Demon Taming Emperor, huh~ really amazing, so many people have been promoted!"

Fu Jianzhou: "..."

You were talking to Senior Sister, why are you looking at me?

It’s really frustrating~

Fu Jianzhou watched as his junior brothers and sisters gradually caught up with him.

At this moment, he was at Demon Taming General·Great Success Stage, while his junior brothers and sisters had already reached Demon Taming General·Minor Success Stage.

"Pfft... haha~" Li Mengnan covered her mouth with one hand but still couldn’t hold back.

Fu Jianzhou was quite helpless: "Junior Brother, I advanced on June 20th, and it’s only late September now."

Only three months, and you want me to advance?

Do you take me for yourself!

"Cheer up, Senior Brother, the Cold Lake Sword is waiting for you." Du Yu stepped forward and put his arm around Senior Brother’s shoulder, giving him an encouraging shake.

"Got it, quickly send your brother back." Fu Jianzhou surrendered immediately.

With Senior Sister as a Demon Emperor in front, and a bunch of junior Demon Generals behind,

I don’t want to stay in this lousy place a second longer!

"How about we go out for hot pot?" Li Mengnan licked her lips, looking eager, "Haven’t had meat in a long time."

To be specific, it’s been a while since having a meal.

"Sure, let’s go together." Du Yu nodded repeatedly, "A day out is worth celebrating! Let’s head back to the Sea Realm first, I’ll go grab some wine."

"Wine?" Lin Shiwei looked surprised, never expecting to hear such words from Du Yu.

Du Yu gave a thumbs up: "A fine brew of the mortal world! Even Senior Brother Li Jing says it’s good!"

"Eh?" Li Mengnan blinked, "You went drinking with Senior Brother Li behind my back?"

Du Yu: ???

The way you put it, what do you mean behind your back... uh.

Seeing Lin Shiwei with the same odd expression, Du Yu explained: "I invited the Enchanting Demons to settle in the Mountain Realm, and asked Senior Brother Li for help."

Fu Jianzhou suddenly perked up: "Enchanting Demons... Monkey Wine?"

Du Yu: "Oh ho, Senior Brother knows his stuff, huh?"

"Haha!" Fu Jianzhou grinned, "I’m in for a treat this time!"

"Absolutely." Du Yu flipped his palm.

Let’s drink big bowls of wine, eat big chunks of meat!

This meal should not only be satisfying but also enjoyable.

If you’re full, you won’t miss home,

if you’re well-fed, you’ll start the journey well... eh?
