I Have a Golden Crow-Chapter 788 - 534 One person attains the Way_2
Yang Qingqing paused for a moment, glancing at Du Yu's eager expression, and couldn't help but laugh to herself.
Come to think of it, she'd accompanied the Mountain Fire Saber for quite a while now.
It was about time to go home and stay for a bit.
Under her disciple's gaze, Yang Qingqing said softly, "I'll go back with you."
Alright~!
Of course, Du Yu didn't shout it out loud, just secretly cheered in his heart.
Yang Qingqing seemed to understand Du Yu's look, and swept a knowing glance at him with a smile.
Du Yu spoke up, "Then Master Qing and Senior Brother Fu can return the Mountain Fire Saber.
I'll head back to the Sea Realm for now, take Sister Qingci to Purple Marsh Lake—she really needs some rest."
Yang Qingqing nodded immediately. "Alright, go on."
Du Yu immediately activated the Ancient Bell, his figure vanishing without a trace.
To reach the North Island as quickly as possible, Du Yu summoned Bai Yujing.
"Nai~~~" With a long, melodious deer call, Bai Yujing appeared in all her glory.
Du Yu suddenly remembered: Xiaobai had already ascended to Demon General Level!
It was all Elder Feng's fault for showing up so suddenly. Just as Bai Yujing leveled up, Du Yu had been dragged into the Mountain Realm's Dark Clouds mission.
This was actually the first time Du Yu saw her after her advancement.
He craned his neck, trying to take in the tall, slender, snowy-white Immortal Deer, finding it a bit hard to get used to.
Bai Yujing's body was over four meters long, and three meters high—not to mention those twisting, grand deer antlers atop her head.
"Nai~" Bai Yujing's eyes sparkled with laughter, those lively deer eyes blinking as she lowered her head to look at Du Yu.
"So beautiful," Du Yu muttered in awe, "Even more beautiful than Yiren!"
"Nai!" Bai Yujing lowered her deer head, gently touching Du Yu's forehead with her soft muzzle.
Du Yu: "..."
"Nai~" Bai Yujing's deer eyes rippled with joy. She lifted her head, happily shaking her snowy antlers.
In an instant, blossoms bloomed and swayed in the breeze, floods of floral scents wafting in the air.
It proved true: beautiful things really can heal the heart.
Right before Du Yu's face, the outline of Celestial Qingci quietly emerged.
She too looked up at the Immortal Deer, slowly raising her hand.
"What's wrong with Sister Qingci?" A sweet voice sounded in Du Yu's mind.
"She... hm." Du Yu thought for a moment, then said, "She just lost a battle—not in a great mood."
"Oh." Bai Yujing's smile blossomed, and she dipped her head again, gently rubbing the cool hand of Celestial Qingci with the side of her face.
The graceful Immortal Deer was trying her best, in her own way, to comfort Celestial Qingci.
Watching this heartwarming scene, Du Yu also found himself a little entranced.
Who knew how long passed before Celestial Qingci said lightly, "I'm heading to Purple Marsh."
"I'll take you," said Du Yu, and leapt onto Bai Yujing's back.
"Alright." Celestial Qingci didn't refuse.
"Nai~~~" Bai Yujing sprang skyward, leaping lightly into the clouds.
Along the way, one Begonia Tree after another—Shatang tree clones—grew and shot their branches wildly, as if they were here for news about the mission.
But Du Yu waved them all away, politely shooing them off.
The Begonia Trees seemed to realize something, and left them alone.
Until man and deer arrived above Purple Marsh Lake, and a majestic Dragon Boat took form and dove straight down.
Du Yu looked a little worried: "Qingci?"
Celestial Qingci: "I'm tired."
"Alright, then rest well. I'll come visit you in a bit."
"Mm."
...
When Du Yu left the Sea Realm and returned to his hotel standard room, he found that Senior Brother Fu was still waiting inside.
Du Yu asked curiously, "Senior Brother, didn't you go with Master Qing?"
Fu Jianzhou shook his head, explaining, "You know the Mountain Fire Saber's temper.
Earlier, Master Qing purposely invited it into the Jiangshan Map—must've explained a lot in advance.
The Mountain Fire Saber was itching for a fight, but nothing happened, and it was sent back just like that..."
"Oh." Du Yu understood now. Seems like Master Qing would have to soothe the Mountain Fire Saber in private.
"Come on, let's check out first. Master Qing wants us to wait by the car." Fu Jianzhou strode toward the door, "Ah..."
"Senior Brother, what's wrong?" Du Yu asked with concern.
Fu Jianzhou sighed, "I wasn't much help. Your sister is pretty down.
The flute melody doesn't do much against Supreme Level creatures."
Du Yu: "It's just the soothing effect that's not great.
If you used another effect, making all beings tense up, those two Supremes would fight to the death—no one could separate them."
Fu Jianzhou's tone suddenly softened, "Sword Province just doesn't have enough power—we're still too far from the battlefield.
If we could get a bit closer, maybe those two Demon Beasts could have calmed down more."
"Sister Lan, don't say that." Du Yu gently comforted her, "You've already helped me so much.
If I hadn't been focused on your flute song, I wouldn't have dared look the Ancient Niuniu in the eye, let alone try to communicate."
Bai Lan nodded, though she didn't really take it to heart. Her smile was a bit forced.
Du Yu said nothing more. After silently checking out of the room, he left the hotel with Senior Brother Fu.
On the way to the parking lot, he suddenly said, "Wait a sec, sis, let me get you an ice cream."
"Xiaoyu, no..." Bai Lan opened her mouth to protest, but Du Yu was already dashing off towards the bookshop in the distance.
Through the contract, Fu Jianzhou gently comforted her, "This kind of level of battlefield is rarely seen in the world, maybe once in centuries.
Bai Lan, don't beat yourself up."
Bai Lan: "Mm."
When Du Yu walked out of the bookshop holding two cones, the Mountain Fire Saber exploded!
Flames shot up, piercing the sky.
The intense buzzing reverberation could be heard even from so far away.
"Damn~" Du Yu grinned. Good thing he didn't let the Mountain Fire Saber out.
Both the saber and the niuniu have terrible tempers—if they really clashed, it'd be disastrous.
Most likely, the one to lose would be the Mountain Fire Saber.
After all, it's just a Demon Soldier. Its real job is to be wielded by a Demon Tamer, unleashing its max power.
Just like the illusory long sword in Elder Feng's hand.
Having the Mountain Fire Saber go up against a Supreme on its own—that's a bit too much to ask of a blade.
Speaking of which,
The Mountain Fire Saber can't take on Kui Chou, but it can fight plenty of others.
In the Great Xia Realm, the Holy Artifact·Mountain Fire Saber is still top-tier combat power, looking down on all living beings.
So, when it throws a tantrum, Yang Qingqing is really the only one who can calm it down.
"Here you go, Sister Lan." Du Yu handed her a cone and strode toward the parking lot, "Don't judge Senior Brother Fu either—he'll get stronger, bit by bit."
Fu Jianzhou: "..."
Just listen,
Is this something a Great Demon Tamer should say to a Demon Taming General?
I'm afraid Du Yu is the only one in the world like this.
After all, he's unlike any other Demon Tamer—so young, and already taming Supremes.
It's got that whole "mother honored because of her child" vibe, huh?
"Boom rumble!"
Waves of heat rolled by, firelight exploding!
Inside and outside the Mountain Fire Blade Realm, all was silent—other than the crackling flames, all beings held their breath in fear.
"Tsk." Du Yu pulled open the car door, looking up at the sky. "Oh, Senior Brother."
"What is it?" Bai Lan was savoring the cone, enjoying the taste, clearly unwilling to give Fu Jianzhou's body back.
"I once told Senior Brother, when we get a chance, let's go talk to the Cold Lake Sword." Du Yu said, licking some ice cream while watching the pillar of fire.
Bai Lan: "Cold Lake Sword?"
"Yep." Du Yu nodded. "Back then, the Mountain Fire Saber perished together with the Cold Lake Sword.
Since the Mountain Fire Saber is this fierce, the Cold Lake Sword can't be far behind.
Once Qingci's all rested up, let's go pay the Cold Lake Sword a visit!"
Bai Lan hesitated for a moment. "Sword Province says he has some history with the Cold Lake Sword."
"Pfft~" Du Yu curled his lip. "Once I smack him down with Celestial Qingci, there's no grudge left to speak of."
"Heh." Watching Du Yu's spirited look, Bai Lan chuckled softly.
Sure enough, sweet things do lift your mood.
Du Yu: "They say the Cold Lake Sword's defense arrays are even scarier than its offensive ones!
If we had the Cold Lake Sword protecting us...
Sister Lan could stand right in the middle of the battlefield while playing her flute."
"Oh?" Bai Lan's eyes brightened.
"Yep." Du Yu nodded as if it was a matter of course, and popped the rest of the cone into his mouth.
Since my brother and sister spend most of their time in the Sea Realm and can be summoned so easily, I have to help them get really, really strong.
Not just Senior Brother Fu—master and junior sisters too.
As they say, when one person soars to the Dao, even the chickens and dogs ascend!
Best to fatten them all up till each and every one can destroy heaven and earth!
That way,
when I pull them out of the Mountain and Sea Bell, I'll have a much easier time~
