I Have a Golden Crow-Chapter 751 - 517 Moonlight Beauty Pillow_2

Do you want to go back under the Shatang Tree, or maybe take a nap in Purple Marsh Lake?

Celestial Cyan Porcelain slowly bowed her head, her long beautiful eyes quietly fixed on Du Yu.

Cardiac arrest!

Du Yu felt like he was about to suffocate.

Everything Celestial Cyan Porcelain did was a constant reminder to Du Yu of his own weakness.

Du Yu really felt helpless, because this was simply a physiological reaction.

This was the innate fear that all living things showed in the face of absolute power.

In a way, isn't this also just a survival instinct?

Probably only the Yue Mountain Lion clan could face Celestial Cyan Porcelain without flinching.

After all, the characteristics of that race are literally like a broken-game cheat code!

Celestial Cyan Porcelain turned her head away at just the right time, shifting her gaze: "From now on, I'll be residing in the Sea Realm for extended periods, so you and I can merge at any time and go to battle together."

Du Yu understood what Celestial Cyan Porcelain was getting at.

He steadied himself for a bit, then calmed down and said, "Alright, let's just take a vacation for the next few days, eat well and have fun!"

You gotta admit, the heavens really went overboard in favoring the Beast Race!

Look at the Seven Saints of Great Xia—they have to cultivate every day, and can't let anything get in the way.

If their mental state slips even a little, downgrading is inevitable.

But then look at the Beast Race!

If they don't feel like cultivating, they just don't bother. If they want to play, they play!

Downgrade?

What's there to downgrade?

No one's forcing me to go against the current anyway!

When it comes to cultivation, the Beast Race can't exactly say they're just drifting with the current, but at least the water's calm—if they stop and rest, the flow won't push their boat too far back…

So if humans pick the Spirit path, things should go this smoothly too, right? 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞

"Mm." For the first time, a faint smile appeared on Celestial Cyan Porcelain's normally emotionless face.

Leaning against the Beauty Pillow, Du Yu turned his head to the side.

He quietly enjoyed the beautiful scenery for a long while, and then Celestial Cyan Porcelain suddenly asked, "Just now, what were you so troubled about?"

Du Yu: "I took first place in the Seven Provinces and One City joint exam. The top prize is really generous.

If I get a custom Demon Soldier, it'll probably be Emperor Level."

To help Celestial Cyan Porcelain understand, Du Yu took the Human Race's Level Six · Eternal Diamond Quality and explained it as Emperor Level.

Celestial Cyan Porcelain: "So?"

Du Yu shrugged: "That level is already really close to Holy Grade. I want to try raising a Holy Grade Demon Soldier myself.

But I can't quite decide if I should choose a bow or a short saber."

Celestial Cyan Porcelain pondered a moment: "Raise a Holy Grade Demon Soldier yourself?"

Du Yu scratched his head awkwardly: "It's a little far-fetched, huh?"

But Celestial Cyan Porcelain never had any intention to mock Du Yu. She just said, "You already have two Holy Grade Demon Soldiers."

"Two?" Du Yu was stunned for a moment, then realized, "Oh, Ashen Arrow and Lion Bone Scythe.

But Lion Bone Scythe is badly injured in its primordial energy, so it's at General Grade now. Who knows when it'll recover to its peak."

Celestial Cyan Porcelain suggested, "You could choose the same type of Demon Soldier."

Du Yu: "Oh?"

"Silly Du Yu~" Suddenly, a little loli floated up beside Du Yu.

Her big orange-red eyes were full of mischief.

Du Yu wasn't annoyed, just looked back into Little Fen Yang's eyes.

Little Fen Yang looked a bit confused: "Why are you staring at me?"

"N-nothing." Du Yu looked away, muttering inwardly.

Little Fen Yang is also Supreme, so how come I never feel scared when I look at her?

"Hmph~" Little Fen Yang snorted, "Just you wait! Just wait until my Demon Soul is whole!

When that happens, one glare from me and you'll die of fright~"

Du Yu rolled his eyes,

Yeah right, you really think you'll scare this king to death?

The precondition for you finding your Demon Soul is that I get really strong too!

At that point, stuff like Sea-devouring Dragon Turtle and Burning Sun Golden Crow—who can intimidate me?

"By the way, how was I being silly?" Du Yu asked.

"What Turtle means is, if you pick arrows or scythe blade, you basically have a mentor." Little Fen Yang glanced at Celestial Cyan Porcelain, "Isn't that right?"

Celestial Cyan Porcelain nodded with a smile, "Yes."

"That makes sense!" Du Yu's eyes lit up; both Ashen Arrow and Lion Bone Scythe were Demon Soldiers that had helped him walk the Road to Heaven!

No doubt about it—cultivating to become a Saint is no easy task!

The real secrets are probably only known by Holy Soldiers themselves.

If he picked the same kind of Demon Soldier, at least Du Yu could have some proper guidance, instead of blundering around like a headless chicken.

"Well, that makes it easy then." Du Yu mumbled, "Of course I'll choose arrows."

Du Yu didn't plan on using a scythe blade; having one Lion Bone Scythe was enough, Lord Baojun could play with it for a long time.

The more he thought about it, the more Du Yu felt this was the way to go.

And another thing is—while Holy Grade bows aren't that rare, Holy Grade arrows sure are!

As for bows,

Du Yu could keep "borrowing" and "spoiling" Great Xia, milking the system for all it's worth~

But arrows? That's a lot harder to milk.

Because Great Xia hardly has any more Holy Grade Arrows left…

"Excellent!" Du Yu clenched his fist, determined to maximize this wool-milking scheme.

This time, for the custom Demon Soldier from the Great Xia Bookstore, I'm getting them to make me an arrow!

"Mmm." Little Fen Yang let out a soft sound, then darted into Du Yu's body.

For some reason, Celestial Cyan Porcelain vanished too.

Du Yu turned to look at the hall. After a while, he saw Fu Jianzhou's figure.

"Cooling off?" Fu Jianzhou walked over, speaking softly.

"It's too hot to sleep." Du Yu nodded and smiled.

Fu Jianzhou looked a bit puzzled: "I just heard a woman's voice—it sounded a lot like Master Qing?"

Du Yu shook his head: "No, that was Celestial Cyan Porcelain.

The two of them have similar styles, but if you listen carefully you can tell the difference."

"Oh." Fu Jianzhou suddenly got it, and asked, "I didn't interrupt, did I?"

"No, we were just chatting." Du Yu pointed at himself, "She went to rest."

"Hehe." Fu Jianzhou relaxed and walked over, also sitting on the Beauty Pillow. "Us senior brothers can really commiserate."

Commiserate?

Is senior referring to… Celestial Cyan Porcelain and Bai Lan?

Their natures may be different, but the way they act really does have similarities.

Thinking about it, Du Yu's expression got a little weird: "But I really like my Celestial Cyan Porcelain, never felt like it was a problem.

Senior brother, you don't like Sister Bai Lan?"

Fu Jianzhou: ???

Du Yu looked all innocent, blinking his eyes.

Fu Jianzhou was grinding his teeth: "You know that's not what I meant."

Du Yu waved his hand: "No need to explain to me, just go talk to my sister.

Anyway, I'm off to bed."

As he spoke, Du Yu got up and left.

"Du! Yu!" Fu Jianzhou's voice dropped, squeezing Du Yu's name through his teeth.

Du Yu paused, hunching his neck.

Who would have thought, Fu Jianzhou's tone suddenly softened: "Go sleep, Xiaoyu, have a good dream."

"Okay~" Du Yu trotted off.

Back on the Beauty Pillow, Fu Jianzhou's expression changed: "Bai Lan, let me explain—"

Bai Lan couldn't help but laugh: "Hehe~"

Back in his room, Du Yu flopped face-down on the bed.

Through his contract, he reached out to the Holy Soldier up north: "Ashes."

He patiently waited a few seconds, but didn't get any response from the cool male god.

Du Yu waited and waited, then called again: "Ashes, are you there?"

"Mm." Finally, the roaring of flames transformed into a voice that rang out in Du Yu's mind.

Ashen Arrow: "I was busy killing just now. What is it?"

Oh wow~

I'm the one being inconsiderate, getting in the way of your killing spree~

Du Yu organized his words and spoke through the link: "If I get my hands on a powerful Demon Soldier arrow,

could you act as a mentor and help me cultivate it to the Holy Grade?"

Ashen Arrow: "You're gonna contract another arrow?"

Du Yu's heart skipped a beat: "Well… uh, our goal is the Youhan Tree, right?

In this Demon Taming World, lone wolf heroics just don't cut it.

We need strong Demon Soldiers and Demon Pets, maybe even powerful Ancient Spiritual Artifacts!

Everything we're doing is to solve the Bottomless Civilization–Youhan Tree!"

Ashen Arrow: "No need to get nervous. You don't have to explain so much."

Even so, Du Yu could sense through the contract that Ashen Arrow was actually kind of pleased.

All living things have a spirit, let alone a Holy Soldier.

Who wouldn't want their contract master to care about them, to value their feelings?

Du Yu: "So?"

From within the blazing flames, embers crackled intensely. Ashen Arrow's voice was strong and clear: "Just give the order."

In that moment, Du Yu finally relaxed: "Alright!"
