I Have a Golden Crow-Chapter 741 - 513 My Next Demon Saint Friend

"Qing... Qingci."

Du Yu's words were a bit labored, the words bouncing out: "Qing...ci, let go, of me."

Behind to the side, Celestial Cyan Porcelain also realized something was off, and immediately withdrew the Demon Skill·Wandering Dragon Dance.

The tiny wandering dragons entwining around Du Yu's body disappeared without a trace.

And Du Yu, who had been floating in midair, promptly went crashing down.

Celestial Cyan Porcelain stood silently high above, watching Du Yu fall towards the sea, but didn't dare to reach out to help again.

"Nai~"

Suddenly, a Beautiful Immortal Deer leaped out next to Du Yu.

But Du Yu's falling speed was too fast, and his shoulder bumped into Bai Yujing's side, yet continued tumbling toward the sea.

"Nai!" How could Bai Yujing just watch her master fall into the sea?

In a flash, the Dust Spirit Immortal Deer drew a graceful arc in the air, and just before Du Yu hit the water, she caught her master steadily.

"Tap." The Immortal Deer's Snow Hoof gently touched the water, sending ripples across the calm surface.

"Nai?" Bai Yujing felt something, lifted her snow-white deer head, and looked at the young woman standing in the air.

Who is she?

So familiar... is she Celestial Cyan Porcelain?

In her field of vision, the woman gently floated down, and softly stroked Bai Yujing's cheek.

It's worth mentioning, the woman's body looked normal, but actually wasn't physical at all.

Even so, Bai Yujing could still feel the icy coolness of her palm.

It must be that when the Demon Soul reached out, a surge of water element suddenly flooded into the palm.

That's what created the illusion that Celestial Cyan Porcelain's Demon Soul was "physical."

"Sniff~" Bai Yujing wriggled her nose. Those deer eyes that should have been lively were now dazed and muddled.

Sure enough, it's Celestial Cyan Porcelain!

That Ancient Demon Saint, Sea-devouring Dragon Turtle?

The one who just made Master's body tremble—was that also Celestial Cyan Porcelain?

"Are you alright?" Celestial Cyan Porcelain asked softly.

"S-still... alright." Du Yu managed to catch his breath a little, still sprawled on the deer's back, replying.

When Du Yu says "I'm fine," usually it's just a small issue.

When Du Yu says "still alright," then it's a big problem!

Celestial Cyan Porcelain looked apologetic: "Next time, I'll be gentler."

Du Yu: "..."

Supreme Level, for Du Yu, really was much too overwhelming.

If you compared Du Yu's body to a pistol, only able to fire 7.62mm bullets...

Then any one of Celestial Cyan Porcelain's Demon Skills would be "nuclear bomb" scale.

Here's the problem!

How does a tiny pistol fire a nuke?

It's not a matter of how to shoot—it's a matter of your gun being utterly blasted apart.

Just like how Little Fen Yang once provided Du Yu the Divine Skill·Burning Sun Eye.

Only when Du Yu leveled up enough, and his body could withstand it, would Little Fen Yang be willing to unlock the corresponding functions.

Back when Du Yu was a total weakling, even Burning Sun Eye·Night Vision Function could only be used for a few seconds at best.

Keep the Night Vision on a bit longer, and your eyes would be fried blind!

"When we're done with this, let's recalibrate together." Du Yu propped himself up on the deer's back, sitting up.

Embarrassingly, his arm was even trembling a little.

Training really had to be put on the agenda.

Never mind who controls whom for now,

when using Celestial Cyan Porcelain's Demon Skills through Du Yu, the strength absolutely had to be tuned right.

Otherwise, if Celestial Cyan Porcelain wasn't careful, she could really play Du Yu to death…

If she flung out an Azure Wave, this "pistol" would explode before the attack even hit the enemy... who could handle that?

Of course, if Du Yu summoned Celestial Cyan Porcelain out, then she could go wild as she pleased, no need to worry about anything.

Celestial Cyan Porcelain smiled: "Earlier, Golden Crow Saint warned me.

So just now when I used Wandering Dragon Dance, I specifically set the Demon Skill's strength really, really low."

Du Yu shot a resentful look at her: "So tune it even lower, I'm really weak... uh.

I'm just not that strong."

Suddenly, Little Fen Yang's laughter sounded in his mind: "Pfft... hahahahaha~"

Du Yu rolled his eyes in annoyance.

Is it that funny, my being weak?

Celestial Cyan Porcelain gently stroked Bai Yujing's cheek: "I'll keep working on it."

With that, her body merged into Du Yu's once more.

Bai Yujing: "Master."

Du Yu: "Yeah?"

Bai Yujing wondered aloud: "Sister Qingci can talk now? Just like Little Fen Yang."

Du Yu stroked her snow-white fur: "These two have reached Supreme Level, that's even above Demon Saint!"

Bai Yujing blinked her eyes, full of envy: "Stronger than Demon Saints?"

Du Yu comforted her: "No need to envy them so much, they've been cultivating for so, so long.

We've only been at it for less than two years and we're already at Level Four. Our talent and potential are undeniable~

In the future, you'll become Supreme too!"

"Nai!" Bai Yujing nodded firmly.

Xiaobai believed with all her heart in her own talent and potential, but trusted Du Yu's words even more.

"Go." Du Yu said gently. Under him, Bai Yujing's Snow Hoof tapped the water as she soared with the wind.

He called the Senior Brother and Junior Sisters who hurried over, and the team returned to Shatang Mansion, gathering under the Shatang Tree.

Du Yu put away Bai Yujing, dropping down beside the tree with a plop.

Amusingly, Fu Jianzhou, Li Mengnan, and Lin Shiwei's faces were all rather odd, staring at Du Yu the whole time.

They had all witnessed with their own eyes the moment when the Dragon Turtle and the Demon Soul merged into Du Yu's body.

"Shall we talk about the Sorrow Seabird?" Du Yu caught his breath, looking up at the three standing in front of him.

Lin Shiwei observed Du Yu's expression carefully, then half-kneeled down, asking with concern: "What's wrong with you?"

Du Yu shook his head: "It's nothing, just overdid it."

"That's what I thought too!" Li Mengnan wholeheartedly agreed, "That gigantic Celestial Cyan Porcelain just went into your body!

Seriously... just thinking about it boggles the mind."

Du Yu couldn't help but laugh, looking up at the girl: "You have Yiren in your body too, way more than you yourself."

"But Celestial Cyan Porcelain is so big!" Li Mengnan stretched her arms out wide, trying to show, "So, so big..."

Du Yu: "..."

Fu Jianzhou leaned back slightly, silently watching the girl's hands wave right past his own face.

"Sorrow Sea, Sorrow Sea." Du Yu leaned over, tugging on the girl's pant leg.

"Eh?" Li Mengnan's reflexes were sharp, one hand propped herself up, almost plopping hard on her butt.

Du Yu looked up at Fu Jianzhou.

Senior Brother Fu promptly sat down cross-legged, such a tactful guy~

Du Yu began, "I dug up a lot of information just now.

The reason Sorrow Seabird was stable, calmly standing guard for days, was because it personally witnessed Celestial Cyan Porcelain's breakthrough to Supreme."

Du Yu paraphrased what Sorrow Seabird had said, and the group quietly nodded.

Lin Shiwei spoke: "So what you mean is, Sorrow Seabird has hope again."

"Right, my Demon Soul's perception can't be wrong." Du Yu nodded, "Sorrow Seabird no longer seeks death, it wants to break through fate!

Earlier, I suggested giving it an Acupoint Home to let it focus on cultivation, but the Sorrow Seabird refused.

It said, this isn't about environment. It could never abandon the sea..."

Du Yu's tale flowed gently.

The group all had complicated feelings.

There are countless Demon Beasts in the world, but the Sea of Sorrow Race seems especially cursed by fate.

Just too unfair.

Du Yu narrated for a while, then asked, "What do you all think?"

Li Mengnan said softly: "Why not just let Sorrow Seabird stay here and fill the sea?

At least here, the waters are calm and it won't get hurt, right?"

The girl had seen Sorrow Seabird's dying episode with her own eyes, and just thinking about that scene brought a wave of sadness.

Fu Jianzhou, who had been silent, suddenly spoke up: "But this will disrupt its cultivation process."

Du Yu glanced at his senior: "Hm?"

Fu Jianzhou: "Inside the Sea Realm, there is very little Wind Demon Breath.

The best we have is a single General-level Wind Chime Tree.

If it returns to the open sea outside, there's endless Wind Demon Breath out there."

Hearing this, Du Yu recalled how, in the storm, Sorrow Seabird had flown through the black clouds.

Indeed, within that rolling cloud sea, Wind Demon Breath was thick and rich.

Fu Jianzhou continued: "Like you said, Sorrow Seabird no longer seeks death, but wants to shatter its shackles.

If that's the case, I think you can let it go in peace.

This way, it can follow its nature and keep struggling with the sea, while also striving hard to cultivate and grow in battle."

Li Mengnan looked worried: "But how's that any different from before?"

"It's not the same." Fu Jianzhou shook his head, "The Sorrow Seabird before had no goal of cultivation.

It was just blindly running toward its fate.

Its power tier was probably all forged through fighting, it never cared about cultivation itself.

But now, Sorrow Seabird has a whole new state of mind and a new reason to exist."

"True." Du Yu nodded slightly, "Maybe Sorrow Seabird still doesn't care much about life or death, but I can feel, it cares a lot about whether it can break the chains.

Even just for that goal, Sorrow Seabird will fight to live."

Seeing that Du Yu was going to let Sorrow Seabird return to the sea, Li Mengnan knew this decision couldn't be changed.

She lowered her head, twisting her fingers: "Then... at least let's heal Sorrow Seabird's wounds thoroughly.

All those injuries it's collected over so many years, let's heal every last one."

Du Yu looked kindly at the beautiful and compassionate Li Mengnan: "Alright, definitely."

Lin Shiwei reached out in time, hugging the girl's shoulders and softly comforting her: "This is the best decision for Sorrow Seabird.

If you forced it to stay here, its heart would never find peace, and it would lack the environment for cultivation too."

"Mm." Li Mengnan was understanding, and nodded softly.

Du Yu turned, patting the Shatang Tree: "How's Sorrow Seabird doing?"

Shatang: "It's watching the sea, Master."

"Hm?"

Shatang: "Let it go, Master. Its heart doesn't belong here."

"Mm..." Du Yu sighed deeply in his heart, and nodded.

The Sea Realm is vast, and the great sea is truly boundless.

But for Sorrow Seabird, this place wasn't anything but a cage.

Du Yu pushed himself up using the tree trunk and stood: "Let's treat this as a good karmic tie."

His unexpected words made his Senior Brother and Junior Sisters all look toward him.

Du Yu smiled: "We discovered this lost species and rescued it from the storm.

By a stroke of fate, Sorrow Seabird helped Celestial Cyan Porcelain break through to Supreme.

And the Supreme-level Celestial Cyan Porcelain, in turn, gave Sorrow Seabird a reason to live, changing its future destiny."

"Good karma." Fu Jianzhou echoed the words, smiling, "That's the perfect phrase."

Lin Shiwei said softly: "With this fortune, maybe, once Sorrow Seabird returns to the sea, it won't be long before it becomes a Saint."

For this warrior Sorrow Seabird, she truly felt deep respect in her heart.

"Told you so." Du Yu began to float up, "Ever since it was born, Sorrow Seabird just went all-out fighting the sea, never even tried cultivating.

Even so, it's already at the Peak of Demon Emperor!

Now that it's set its heart on cultivation, who knows how far it'll go?"

Du Yu floated along backward, saying: "Come on, let's go give Sorrow Seabird a good round of healing, and send it on its way!"

Of course his Senior Brother and Junior Sisters wouldn't refuse, and all lifted into the air.

Du Yu turned and accelerated, flying out of Shatang Mansion, heading straight for the sea's edge.

The bird called Sorrow Sea,

Next time we meet, you'll surely be another Demon Saint friend of mine...

Final few hours on double monthly pass—if you've got one, cast it in, much appreciated!
