I Have a Golden Crow

Chapter 1105: Chapter 693: Lifelong Wish

Du Yu played in Xiangming Valley for a long time before reluctantly saying goodbye to the Colorful Elephant Group while riding the little black Tai Sui.

Next, it was naturally time to head further east, to the region where the Dixiu Tree resided.

Interestingly, when the Dixiu Tree saw two black figures approaching, it was so startled that it almost flung Du Yu away...

"Don’t hit, don’t hit!" Du Yu quickly raised his hand, "It’s me."

The Dixiu Tree curiously "looked" at Du Yu, with several branches frozen in mid-air.

"Hold on a second." Du Yu dismounted Xiong, as the mud on him had dried in the wind along the way, it was time to take off the Demon Breath Battle Robe.

Then, like shedding his skin, Du Yu took off the mud-covered Demon Breath Battle Robe.

Seeing the familiar figure reappear, the Dixiu Tree happily shook its branches, welcoming its master.

"You’ve grown so tall." Du Yu softly sighed, stepping forward.

The once small sapling had grown over 3 meters, with branches spreading horizontally like an umbrella.

Du Yu carefully sensed that Little Dixiu was likely around the Earth Level Great Success Stage to Peak Stage.

Remember, the Dixiu Tree was only 3 months old!

No wonder, it was born from a Saint-level Demonic Plant, its growth speed was indeed remarkable.

Du Yu quickly stepped forward, holding a branch of the Dixiu Tree, gripping a heart-shaped leaf with serrated edges, his fingertips caressing the edge.

Through the Demon Soul at his fingertips, Du Yu felt the joy of the Dixiu Tree.

In an instant, Du Yu felt a profound sense of guilt in his heart.

Alas...

Dixiu, oh Dixiu, it might be better if you would blame me a little, or even whip me a few times.

However, the young Dixiu Tree bore no resentment, only joy at Du Yu’s arrival.

Du Yu whispered, "Next time, when I recruit another commander into the mountains, I will have them come here to keep you company, okay?"

"Shasha~"

The Dixiu Tree gently shook its branches, making a pleasant sound.

"Hehe." Du Yu took two more steps forward, leaning against the Dixiu Tree trunk, sliding down to sit.

As he turned his head, he saw the black little Tai Sui once again.

He spoke, "You can scatter your battle robe too."

"Mmm~" The little Tai Sui looked as if it had done something wrong, raising its bear paw, scratching its mud-covered head.

Du Yu asked puzzledly, "What happened?"

Little Tai Sui: "While rolling in the mud, I didn’t activate the Demon Breath Battle Robe."

Du Yu: "..."

You really know how to enjoy yourself, huh.

Not having fun with the battle robe on?

By the way, if I directly took Tai Sui God into the Acupoint Home, would the mud on it just fall off to the ground?

After all, Tai Sui God breaks into Demon Breath and merges into Du Yu’s body.

So, the mud clinging to little Tai Sui shouldn’t be able to enter Du Yu’s body?

Hmm...

Du Yu thought and thought, eventually deciding it wasn’t necessary to experiment.

He flipped his hand, activating the Mountain and Sea Bell: "Go wash in the sea, then find the Fire Phoenix Tree afterward."

"Mmm~" Little Tai Sui nodded, and with the flash of the Bell Shadow, the muddy panda disappeared without a trace.

Leaning against Dixiu, Du Yu took a deep breath, slowly closing his eyes.

The Dixiu Tree seemed to enjoy this moment as well.

It resisted the mountain winds, trying to keep its leaves still, creating a quiet resting environment for Du Yu, silently accompanying this human.

Three months ago, when the Dixiu Tree had just been born, it didn’t understand much.

It only knew it was created by its mother tree to follow a pair of human male and female, to be forever by their side.

In some sense, this pair of human male and female gave the little Dixiu life.

After all, it was because of these two that the mother tree willingly spent its energy birthing a sapling.

Now, as time passes, the little Dixiu Tree’s spiritual intelligence grows increasingly keen, learning and understanding much from the Jia Rong Grass.

Little Dixiu finally came to know the place it resides is called the Mountain Realm.

Everything within the Mountain Realm, like itself, belongs entirely to this human named Du Yu.

The female owner is Du Yu’s master, but... but she hasn’t visited in a long time.

Don’t know if she’s doing well.

"Master Qing is fine, don’t worry." Du Yu suddenly said with closed eyes.

"Shasha~" Little Dixiu softly swayed its branches.

"The Great Dixiu Tree is also with Master Qing, and it is doing well too," Du Yu said with a smile.

He hadn’t expected that the Dixiu Tree, despite being so young, could have such rich emotions.

Compared to other Earth-level Demonic Plants with unopened spiritual intelligence, the difference was incredibly vast!

"Master."

"Hmm?" Du Yu opened his eyes, "What is it, Tai Sui?"

Little Tai Sui: "Sister Shiwei is looking for you."

"What is it?" Du Yu frowned slightly, asking.

"She said there’s a task."

"Oh." Du Yu looked guilty, gazing up at the Dixiu Tree branches, "I have to go."

The usually interactive Dixiu Tree didn’t give a response this time.

"Sorry, Little Dixiu." Du Yu reached back to stroke the Dixiu Tree trunk, "I promise, after completing the task I’ll come to see you.

At that time, I’ll bring Master Qing along to visit you, is that okay?"

"Da~" A Dixiu Tree branch gently tugged on a serrated heart-shaped leaf, stretching it toward Du Yu’s eyes.

Through the Demon Soul, Du Yu felt the other’s sentiment: "Promise!"

Du Yu was dumbfounded.

No wonder you’re a Seed of the Holy Tree, you’re so full of spirit!

Du Yu owns many Demonic Plants, but none has ever plucked its own leaf as a token and made a promise with Du Yu.

The key is, the leaf from Dixiu is heart-shaped.

Heart-shaped!!

"Alright, it’s a promise." Du Yu reached out and took the Dixiu leaf.

"Shasha~" Little Di Xiu gently shook its branches, seemingly looking forward to the future reunion.

"Whew~"

Bell Shadow flickered, and Du Yu’s figure vanished without a trace, leaving only a solitary Little Di Xiu standing there.

Well...not quite alone, as there was still Jia Rong Grass nearby to keep company.

It’s just that the Dixiu Tree didn’t dare to disturb, because recently, the Jia Rong Demon Saint was in closed-door cultivation, seemingly comprehending something profound...

Holding the leaf, Du Yu steadily landed on the beach and heard a "ying ying" sound.

He turned to look and saw Lin Shiwei helping Little Tai Sui wash its body under the sea reef.

Little Tai Sui was evidently being pampered, so comfortable that it kept humming~

"Ha." General Lin looked at the dirty Xiongxiong with a mix of anger and amusement. She reached out to pinch Little Tai Sui’s round tail, squeezing it hard.

"Ying~" Little Tai Sui lay on the reef, seemingly hurt by the pinch, crawled forward a bit.

"Busy?" Du Yu squatted down and greeted.

Lin Shiwei immediately stood up and gently kicked Little Tai Sui’s butt: "Wash yourself."

"Ying~" Little Tai Sui got up, wiggled its round butt, and jumped into the sea.

The little creature knew that its owner had arrived, Sister Shiwei wouldn’t accompany it any longer.

"Got a mission?" Du Yu looked at the girl flying up, curiously asking.

"Yes." Lin Shiwei flew over Du Yu’s head, "Master Qing told me to wait for you here, once you return, see her immediately... hmm?"

Lin Shiwei stopped mid-air, looking down at Du Yu: "Walking?"

Du Yu awkwardly jumped off the reef: "Can’t fly."

Normally, Lin Shiwei could lend Du Yu the Black Python Robe to take him flying.

But now, her Bai Lu was in the Peach Blossom Realm, if Lin Shiwei lost the Black Python Robe, she wouldn’t be able to fly either.

Though there was still a Ghost Skull·Ghost Yingluo that could carry people flying within her...

"You go ahead, see you at the mansion." Du Yu casually pressed the Dixiu leaf against his lips.

He drew out a Fire Demon Breath Bow from his temple, ready to team up with the Beautiful Demon Fox and unleash the Shadow-Luring Fire Fox.

Unexpectedly, a shadow in the sky swiftly skimmed down, the girl’s boots lightly landed, and one arm wrapped around Du Yu’s waist.

"Uh." Du Yu’s body stiffened, staying still.

"What’s that?" Lin Shiwei hugged Du Yu flying up, her beautiful eyes falling on Du Yu’s lips, softly asking.

"A leaf from the Dixiu Tree." Du Yu dispelled the Fire Bow, casually taking down the leaf, "I was napping and meditating with the Dixiu Tree earlier."

Lin Shiwei reached out and took the leaf from Du Yu’s fingers, pretending to be casual: "Give it to me."

"Okay." Du Yu whispered, not daring to refuse.

For some reason, Du Yu always felt like being cornered by a school bully at the school’s snack shop?

Just bought a pack of spicy strips, only to have it snatched by an older bully.

Lin Shiwei clamped the heart-shaped leaf between her slender fingers, looked around, and smiled a little.

"Shiwei?"

"Hmm?"

Du Yu said weakly: "We’re flying off course, heading towards the sea."

Lin Shiwei: "..."

Until they flew over the grand gates of Shatang Mansion, General Lin casually dropped Du Yu, then flew to the West Wing.

Probably to store the leaf.

Du Yu sprinted to the main building northwards, calling out, "Master Qing?"

"Call Jianzhou, we’re leaving." Unexpectedly, Master Qing’s voice first floated out from the house.

Du Yu’s heart sank, what’s so urgent?

He had no time for more, turned and walked towards the East Wing, but Fu Jianzhou was already dressed neatly and walked out.

When Du Yu turned back again, Master Qing, casually dressed in white leisure wear with a baseball cap, also walked out of the main building’s doors.

Seeing her outfit, Du Yu couldn’t help but feel even tenser.

Master Qing especially favored long dresses, and whenever she wore white as pure as snow, it meant an epic battle was about to arrive!

Du Yu immediately said: "Master Qing, my Demon Pets are scattered across the Mountain and Sea Dual Realm, give me some time to summon them back."

Yang Qingqing instead asked: "I heard you took Xiaofeng away?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Shiwei who hastily returned to the courtyard perked up her ears.

Du Yu replied: "Sister is repairing an Ancient Spiritual Artifact under the Mountain Realm·Twin Trees."

"Hmm." Yang Qingqing nodded gently, "Keep the mission’s matter confidential for now, don’t tell her."

Du Yu asked puzzled: "Master Qing, what exactly is the mission?"

Yang Qingqing simply uttered two words: "Shiyan City, Bottomless Abyss."

Du Yu’s eyes lit up: "Great Xia agreed to Master Qing’s request?"

"It depends on the specific circumstances." Yang Qingqing shook her head, "Each Bottomless Pit surpasses the Jade Gourd’s limit in scale.

Whether we clear the Bottomless or not depends on whether Gourd Mountain can be built.

If there’s no problem, then we’ll tell Xiaofeng, so she doesn’t get disappointed."

"Got it." Du Yu nodded heavily.

It has to be Master Qing!

Both gentle and meticulous.

Meticulous because she couldn’t bear to see her disciple’s hopes crushed, this lifelong wish should indeed allow for no mishaps.

Gentle because...

For Jiang Feng Sister’s entry, Master Qing and Du Yu both presented a gift.

And Master Qing’s gift is even bigger!

She wants to completely flatten the abyss that imprisoned Jiang Feng!
