"Sizzle..."

As Li Jing’s words fell, a spatial rift appeared in the courtyard.

Immediately, Du Yu came out holding a jar of wine.

Meanwhile, inside the Demon King’s Cave Mansion, the Mountain Ghost Clan Leader looked horrified, his heart in his throat.

The master had left only one message: no living beings are allowed to move here.

Then, it watched in disbelief as the master tore open a spatial rift with an axe and stepped in.

Until the rift closed, the violent energy fluctuations continued surging, shaking the Mountain Ghost’s soul.

Unlike Du Yu’s previously shown instantaneous movement, this spatial rift was grand and awe-inspiring!

Who exactly did I recognize as my master?

The Mountain Ghost Clan Leader suddenly realized,

the gold content of his recent kneel was still increasing...

At the same time, Great Xia Capital City - Twenty-Ninth Bureau Courtyard.

Du Yu hung up the phone and nodded at the guards rushing over.

The guards, upon seeing it was Du Yu, immediately stood at attention and saluted, their respect was hard to fake.

Du Yu gave the guards an apologetic smile and then flew towards the building with the wine jar.

"Clap~Clap~"

Accompanied by the faint sound of thunder, Du Yu’s feet were wrapped in lightning, sparking and leaping continuously.

Following the building’s exterior wall, Du Yu stepped by step up to the window of the Director’s office on the 7th floor.

"Wait a moment, junior brother, I’ll remove the screen." Li Jing spoke.

"Crackle~crack~"

Accompanied by the sound of electricity, Li Jing’s action of removing the screen stopped.

He slowly turned and looked behind him.

Only to see the junior brother standing in the office, wine jar in hand.

Li Jing reacted for quite a while, quietly saying, "Mountain Realm Saint?"

Deservedly the Director’s secretary, really quick to react.

Du Yu smiled and nodded, "I brought a jar of wine, shall we taste it together, senior brother?"

Seeing Du Yu’s state, Li Jing breathed a deep sigh of relief.

In Li Jing’s mind, for Du Yu to come to the Twenty-Ninth Bureau in the middle of the night, there must be something important.

But looking at Du Yu’s current relaxed demeanor...

No matter what the junior brother is here for, it doesn’t seem as serious as imagined.

Du Yu: "Can you have a drink, senior brother? Off from work yet?"

Li Jing pushed his frameless glasses on the bridge of his nose and smiled, "I can."

Even if I can’t, I have to!

You call me senior brother, because of Master Qing.

And in this Demon Taming World, there are probably not many people who dare refuse your invitation.

The two brothers came to the reception sofa, Li Jing brought two small teacups, and Du Yu opened the wooden lid of the wine jar.

In an instant, the aroma of the fruit wafted, making mouths water.

Li Jing curiously looked at the wooden wine jar and didn’t find any brand, "What is this?"

"Mountain Ghost Brew." Du Yu filled the teacups with wine and handed one to his senior brother.

Li Jing looked at the specks of wine in the cup, smelled repeatedly, and then took a small sip.

"Hiss..." Li Jing immediately gasped.

As a normal Demon Tamer, he would absolutely never consume products from demonic plants.

He doesn’t have the experience of regularly consuming Demon Plant Fruits like Du Yu, naturally, Li Jing’s tolerance is not so high.

After this sip, the bitter and sour taste almost sent Li Jing away...

"My junior brother." Li Jing held the teacup in one hand and took off his frameless glasses with the other, wiping his moist eyes.

"Hehe~" But Du Yu laughed, "Is it that good?"

Look how moved Senior Brother is, even cried from drinking~

Li Jing was in agony, looking up at Du Yu.

Originally thought the junior brother was joking with him, but was surprised to find Du Yu also drank a sip, and drank half a cup?

This?

Just as Li Jing was surprised, a faint sweetness quietly emerged, mixing with the lingering fragrance between the lips and teeth, bringing him an unprecedented enjoyment.

Li Jing reacted for a long time, finally putting down the teacup, picking up the wooden wine jar, studying it carefully.

The wine jar’s manufacturing was very rough, greatly contrasting the quality of the wine inside.

Li Jing: "Demon Fruit Wine?"

"Ah." Du Yu nodded, "Brewed by the Enchanting Demon Race."

"Enchanting Demon?" Li Jing’s eyes lit up; the fruit wine made by the Ghost Demon Race is collectively known as "Monkey Wine."

But due to the rarity of the Ghost Demon Race, the fruit wine brewed by them is extremely rare in the market, money can’t buy it.

Li Jing had only heard of it, never tasted it.

Du Yu: "I just came from Shanxiao City·Mountain Demon Realm."

Li Jing looked up at Du Yu, quietly waiting for the next words.

Du Yu: "There are six Ghost Demon tribes over there, and one of the tribe leaders has recognized me as their master and wants to follow me into the Mountain Realm."

So it was for this.

Li Jing wasn’t surprised by such an operation, as a junior brother once brought the Dust Spirit Deer tribe into the Mountain and Sea Bell.

That time, the junior brother contacted Master Qing.

And when the mission was put into practice, it was Li Jing who managed and contacted the various parties.

"Heh." Li Jing chuckled at Du Yu, "You could have just told me this over the phone, no need to come all the way here."

"Haven’t seen you for a long time, brother. Let’s have a drink." Du Yu smiled.

"Is it urgent?"

"Not urgent." Du Yu shook his head.

"I’ll ask for you tomorrow morning."

"Sure." Du Yu picked up his tea cup and clinked glasses with Li Jing.

The two brothers drank a glass in one gulp, grimacing comically.

That night, Du Yu and brother Li Jing drank almost half a jar of wine and chatted about many things.

However, Du Yu didn’t stay at the bureau, and returned to the Mountain Demon Realm in the early morning, going back to the Mountain Ghost Cave Mansion.

Lad, full of energy.

Sleeping on a cold bed in an autumn cave is quite something.

Not sure how long he slept, but he was awakened by the Mountain Ghost leader.

"Hmm... huh?" Du Yu opened his eyes groggily, his eyes slowly focusing, clearing to see a ghostly painted face in front of him.

"Whoa!" Du Yu was quite startled.

He used his hands and feet, supporting himself on the stone bed, retreating quickly.

Mountain Ghost: "..."

Am I really that scary?

Human aesthetics are really lacking; the paint on my face is so beautiful!

It’s indeed true.

For the Enchanting Demon tribe, the brighter the colors on the face and buttocks, the higher the demon’s rank, and the better their mating rights within the tribe.

"Uh." Du Yu scratched his head awkwardly, "What’s going on?"

Mountain Ghost Leader: "Some human soldiers came to my territory, saying they want to have a detailed talk with you."

"Okay." Du Yu rubbed his eyes, feeling tired but without a headache.

The quality of the Mountain Ghost Brew is genuinely good, not a bit of a hangover.

Mind you, this was Du Yu’s first time drinking wine.

He had the chance to drink beer before, during a barbecue gathering with Shaohai’s people before the final exams in Ancient Wilderness City.

But when Lin Shiwei heard that Du Yu had never drunk before and didn’t know his capacity, she didn’t let him have any.

General Lin gave the order,

Naturally, no one dared to drink with Du Yu at the table, and Du Yu himself didn’t dare to take a cup...

Now it seems, General Lin was indeed insightful.

What’s so good about beer? The first time we drink should be fruit wine, and it’s a fine wine of the world.

"Let’s go." Du Yu got off the stone bed and picked up his phone, surprised to see it was already three in the afternoon.

He sure can sleep.

"Uh... ah~" Du Yu walked out of the cave entrance, gave a big stretch with a groan.

Sunlight trickled through the lush leaves, landing on his face in the mountain stream, making Du Yu quite pleased.

Mountain Ghost Leader: "Master, the people have arrived."

"Oh, great." Du Yu hastily took a few steps forward, coming to the stream and quickly washing his face.

Meanwhile, a team of soldiers, led by two Demon Generals·Charming Ghosts, arrived next to the mountain stream cave mansion.

The soldiers saw Du Yu washing his face by the stream, and also saw the Demon Emperor Ghost King standing obediently beside him.

Unavoidably, the soldiers exchanged glances.

Although everyone lives under the same sky, the worlds they face are truly different.

As the troops stationed in the Mountain Demon Realm, the soldiers are well aware of the Enchanting Demon tribe’s power, combativeness, and mischievous traits.

Including the eerie howls echoing through the forest as they traveled, which kept everyone on edge.

And now,

That Demon Emperor Ghost King stands beside Du Yu in a submissive manner.

"Hello everyone." Du Yu wiped his face and stood up, "Thank you for your trouble."

The soldiers stood straight, looking solemn as they saluted.

This scene, Du Yu had seen last night.

Looks like he finally made a name for himself in this Demon Taming World.

The Ghost King silently observed everything, still not sure what kind of person it kneeled to last night.

Whatever kind of person it was...

The Mountain Ghost knew it had surely followed the right person!
