I Have a Golden Crow-Chapter 574 - 417 for a very long time
Great Xia Capital City, Twenty-Ninth Bureau.
Inside the Director’s office of the Third Department, a woman was sitting behind the desk.
She sat elegantly with her legs crossed, elbow resting on the sofa arm, palm cupping her cheek, lost in thought.
Next to the desk, Li Jing carefully brewed some tea and handed the cup to the woman: "Master Qing?"
Yang Qingqing’s absent gaze gained a bit of focus: "You wrote everything down, right?"
"Yes, Master Qing," Li Jing replied immediately.
"Mm." Yang Qingqing replied softly, "If you don’t hear from me within three days, report to our superiors and send people here to look for Du Yu and me."
Li Jing: "Understood."
Yang Qingqing’s jade hand picked up the white porcelain teacup and took a light sip: "After I leave, you’ll act in my stead, managing all affairs in the department."
Li Jing said in a deep voice: "Master Qing, please take every precaution."
Yang Qingqing smiled and nodded, put the little teacup down on the desk, then...
"Poof~"
A living person just vanished into thin air.
Only the lingering Demon Breath on her seat told Li Jing that none of this was a dream.
"Sigh..." Li Jing pushed up his rimless glasses, unable to stifle a sigh.
He’d always provided technical support from the rear, so naturally he understood what Master Qing was up to.
Hope Master—and little junior brother—are both alright.
"Riiing riiing riiing~"
The urgent ring of the phone snapped Li Jing out of his thoughts.
He looked at the desk phone and quickly picked up the receiver: "Third Department."
"Who’s this? Li Jing? Is Director Yang there?" A man’s anxious voice came from the other end.
Hearing the urgency, Li Jing’s face grew solemn: "Director Yang is on a mission. If there’s something, let me know."
"The bracelet’s been stolen."
Li Jing’s expression changed: "What?"
...
East Persia, Moon Lion Mountain. 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶
The battle raged fiercely in the deep valley.
Heaven Returning Wood was displaying divine might, summoning a dense mountain forest that even encroached upon Purple Bamboo Forest’s territory.
Cold Jade·Heavenly Tree Sea!
Every branch and leaf in the forest was controlled by Heaven Returning Wood.
And within that vast forest, the Rose General Spirit was a killing machine.
The four rose heads circling its neck each opened wide, spewing sheets of flame.
Cold Jade·Fireworks Four Directions!
The omnidirectional, seamless firestorm forced the enemies to retreat step by step.
The Giant Rock Python, Mountain Giant, and even the newly joined Thundercloud Roc were all pushed backward.
"Kill her, kill her for me!" The Beauty Snake shrieked in fury.
The once-alluring look in the woman’s eyes now brimmed with hatred, even twisted with rage.
In that manic state, she wanted nothing more than to wring Yang Qingqing’s neck and crush her skull beneath her heel!
"Roar!" At its master’s command, a leopard let out a sharp cry.
Electric-type Demon Beast·Thunderlight Leopard.
The behemoth streaked by at lightning speed, dodging whipping vines, beastly eyes erupting with a dazzling light.
Cold Jade·Purple Lightning Beam!
Electric Eyes!
Two bolts of electricity shot into the tangled leaves—branches and foliage shattered and exploded, leaves swirling everywhere.
"Riiing ring~ ring~"
Amid the crisp bell chimes, the Beauty Snake’s exasperated face froze on the spot.
In an instant, her rage suddenly cleared!
No!
Don’t...
The Beauty Snake felt her body slip out of control, hurtling straight toward Heaven Returning Wood.
"Demoness! Insolent!" An old man’s hoarse voice rang out overhead.
A dark cloud suddenly gathered in the sky?!
As thunder crashed and lightning flashed, a thick column of electricity surged downward.
Though it couldn’t compare to the Ancient Bull of the Mountain Realm, this bolt was still enough to be called a "mini-waterfall."
Mighty momentum!
Celestial Treasure Race·Electric-type Demon Beast·Flashing Cloud!
The Purple Lion Corps really did have good stuff.
Heaven Returning Wood’s branches surged wildly, leaves rustling and twining densely together.
Cold Jade Tree Shadow Shield!
"Crash~"
With the sound of demon breath battle robe tearing, the layered shields of branches and leaves were blasted open by pure thunder!
This Flashing Cloud had already reached the Peak of Demon General!
The sudden assault interrupted Yang Qingqing’s spell.
Encased in Heaven Returning Wood’s branches, she was whisked toward the back as the electric waterfall crashed down, striking straight at the main trunk.
"Hiss..." That electric waterfall even made Heaven Returning Wood itself shudder.
Its summoned Heavenly Tree Sea also began to retreat.
"That’s right! Kill her, kill her for me!" The Beauty Snake, regaining control, braced a foot on a flailing vine.
As she was knocked backward, her gaze landed on Heaven Returning Wood enduring the onslaught. For a moment, a smile appeared on her face?
The kind of smile that comes when deep vengeance is served, the joy of personal revenge.
Yet...
The next second, her smile froze stiff.
From the tattered foliage, a gigantic figure appeared out of nowhere, braving the lightning, soaring straight to the heavens?!
Demon Pet·Rotten Wood Dragon Fish!
Earlier, Yang Qingqing had specifically withdrawn the Rotten Wood Avatar left at the Twenty-Ninth Bureau, already planning to summon Rotten Wood Dragon Fish.
Once separated from the Dragon Fish, she couldn’t cooperate with a Demon Beast to use the Rotten Wood Avatar’s Demon Skill.
"Pop~"
The thirty-meter-long Rotten Wood Dragon Fish, like a dragon boat, soared majestically—yet it made a remarkably dopey noise.
"Pop~"
"Pop pop~" Bubble-blowing sounds filled the air as countless Little Dragon Carps bubbled into view.
The giant Rotten Wood Dragon Fish plowed through the lightning, swimming upstream!
