I Have a Golden Crow-Chapter 608 - 436 Heart Slaying!

"Rumble!"

Accompanied by deafening thunder, four figures appeared beneath the dark clouds.

Among them, the Purple-robed General was immediately bound up tight by the Jia Rong Grass.

"Ah! Ahhh!" The Purple-robed General howled madly, struggling with all his might.

But the Jia Rong Grass was terrifyingly dominant.

It pulled the Purple-robed General's limbs apart, slowly stretching him to each side, letting its prey experience what it truly meant to be powerless!

"You! You... ah!" The Purple-robed General seemed to want to say something, but the words turned into a scream at the tip of his tongue.

Because the Jia Rong Grass suddenly tightened, Shaojin's body was fully pulled open in a giant "X" shape.

Any more force, and Shaojin's scrawny arms and legs would probably be torn off.

The Purple Gold Dragon Pattern Bracelet's enhancement to the strength attribute of all living things clearly depended on the host's power as a base.

Shaojin was only a Great Demon Tamer.

Even if the Purple Gold Dragon Pattern Bracelet went all out, Shaojin could only barely reach the strength level of a Demon Taming General.

But that's merely General Level,

What can it do against Saint Level?

"Mmm." With a mouthful of Jia Rong Grass Fruit, Du Yu brushed off the Jia Rong Grass leaf and nodded, "Thanks."

The two girls in black and white coats hovered behind Du Yu, also popping the fruit into their mouths without hesitation.

"Lord Shaojin..."

"Master?" Not far from the others, two members of the Golden Lion Corps were trussed up and suspended in midair.

They looked just like figures from a crucifixion painting.

These two weren't the ones from Bu Aba's household, but from his wife's apartment.

The first two had long since gone into the Shadow Gu Tower to beg for mercy and repent.

Their repentance proved effective; each turned into purified Demon Souls and Demon Breath, washing away all their sins.

This night, Du Yu had used the Mountain and Sea Bell far too many times, draining a massive amount of Demon Breath in total.

If not for the Golden Lion Corps' generous sponsorship, Du Yu honestly couldn't have acted so recklessly.

The Medal of Merit for this mission really ought to have a cut for the Golden Lion Corps~

"Stop! Wait! What are you... mmph." One of the men tried to speak, but Du Yu waved his hand impatiently.

Instantly, Jia Rong Grass leaves wound around the men's lower faces, sealing their mouths tight.

The Purple-robed General, shocked and furious, looked at the grass binding him and then at the floating Du Yu before him.

Du Yu's expression shifted to a smile: "Ancient Demon Saint Jia Rong Grass. It may have been born even earlier than you."

Once the Purple-robed General recognized the situation, he was so stunned he could hardly speak: "You... you..."

Du Yu: "I provoked you just now out of necessity; it was only to imprison Shaojin."

General, return to Great Xia."

As the saying goes: Peace is always built upon the tip of a blade!

In the face of absolute power, no matter how much indignation or unwillingness the Purple-robed General harbored, he was forced to quiet down and listen to Du Yu.

The Purple-robed General stared fixedly at Du Yu, momentarily speechless.

Du Yu spoke: "The fact you can be angered means, deep down, you still care."

As he finished, Du Yu raised his palm, and a tiny ancient bronze bell appeared.

He continued, "I know every Spiritual Artifact has its own character. Like the Mountain and Sea Bell. Or for example..."

As he spoke, the Spiritual Artifact in Du Yu's palm suddenly transformed.

From an ancient bronze bell, it turned into a delicate ancient tower.

Du Yu spread his arms, sending the Shadow Gu Tower floating aside.

"Mm! Mmph!!" The Golden Lion Giant who had spoken earlier stared in horror.

To his shock, a stream of Demon Soul was drawn right out of his body!

His terrified eyes and hopeless muffled cries, amid the lightning and thunder, made for a ghastly scene.

The Shadow Gu Tower continued to devour the enemy's Demon Souls, while Du Yu reached down, fingertips skimming through the river of souls.

He could feel the anguish of these terrified beings flowing between his fingers, and softly said, "Or, for example, my Shadow Gu Tower."

The sight was utterly chilling.

Aside from the bawling giant, everyone else stared blankly at the spectacle.

Including Li Mengnan!

The girl certainly knew about Du Yu's Shadow Gu Tower and its abilities.

But witnessing Du Yu's hand plunged into the "Demon Soul River," savoring the torment and wailing of living beings...

In Li Mengnan's eyes, there was hardly any difference between Du Yu and a Great Demon.

Actually, as for being a "Great Demon," Fu Jianzhou had already witnessed it firsthand inside the Bottomless Pit.

Du Yu looked up at the Purple-robed General: "I know — any Spiritual Artifact that sees the light of day again, has endured countless years of darkness, unimaginable loneliness and suffering.

I imagine you have your own obsessions too.

Once you emerged, you were desperate to fulfill your purpose, but unwilling to compromise too much—so you chose the wrong person."

The Purple-robed General's tiger eyes narrowed: "You're the right one?"

Du Yu shook his head to show he wasn't the chosen one, but nonetheless raised his left arm.

Back and to the left, Lin Shiwei dipped down, then rose up, allowing Du Yu to hold her close.

Such unspoken gestures—they're kind of like the Jia Rong Grass, actually.

Du Yu: "She is."

The Purple-robed General turned to Lin Shiwei, the "Mom" Du Yu had mentioned.

You can tell a lot about someone just from their aura.

The girl in the white coat was gentle and sweet, and irresistibly cute.

But the girl in the black coat—her brow heroic, her gaze sharp—carried an overwhelming presence!

Du Yu: "That arrogance and imposing will you yearn for? She has it all."
