I Have a Golden Crow-Chapter 817 - 550: Little Sword, Don’t Run

"Have you made up your mind?" Ye Lingyu asked seriously, confirming, "You want to challenge the bookstore's flagship task."

"Yes!" Du Yu nodded emphatically, without hesitation.

"Okay, please wait a moment." Ye Lingyu picked up the landline phone on the bar and immediately notified everyone involved.

Taking advantage of the downtime, Du Yu and Fu Jianzhou entered the lounge together, each ordering a sundae.

As the brothers chatted while eating, they waited for quite a while until suddenly the sound of an alarm rang out!

Du Yu froze in place, the spoon in his hand suspended mid-air.

Honestly, no matter how many times he hears such alarm sounds, he finds it hard to get used to them.

Such a loud and piercing sound always manages to make one's heart leap to their throat, arousing a sense of impending disaster!

Having gone through the Mountain Fire Blade Bookstore flagship task, Du Yu finally understood the challenge process.

Sure enough, after three rounds of alarm sounds, a rough voice spread throughout the dense forest, reverberating across the major lake districts:

"Attention everyone, attention everyone!

The Cold Lake Sword Bookstore flagship task is about to begin, specific time: in 1 hour.

All Demon Tamers cultivating in the Otherworld, please evacuate quickly..."

Listening to the somewhat familiar order, Du Yu felt a bit pleased inside.

The Cold Lake Sword Realm, unlike the broad view of the Mountain Fire Blade Demon Spirit Realm.

This place is a forest-lake terrain, particularly obscuring the view, and if the Central Lake District is empty, the Celestial Cyan Porcelain can boldly have a showdown with the Cold Lake Sword!

Du Yu scooped a spoonful of ice cream: "Last time I challenged Mountain Fire Blade, the Other Realm only gave half an hour of evacuation time."

"The Cold Lake Sword Realm is larger, and the terrain more complex," Fu Jianzhou explained, also advising, "You must be careful, absolutely do not underestimate the challenge."

"I wouldn't dare," Du Yu pointed to his nose, "She's different from other Demon Pets, she knows everything I do."

"Hmm," Fu Jianzhou relaxed quite a bit.

The two patiently waited for a while, and more and more people flooded into the bookstore.

Obviously, people were driven out one by one, each angrier than the last!

"Damn, I'm really impressed, just went underwater and was fished out by soldiers! Frustrating!"

"Haven't seen anyone challenge Cold Lake Sword in years, wonder which young talent is tired of living?"

"Say less. Those who dare to challenge must be of significant status, don't offend them."

"Could it be someone from the Ye Family? That Ye Xihai?"

"It's not him, I saw him playing chess on the boat earlier..."

Listening more, Du Yu's expression grew stranger.

Young Master Ye certainly has refined tastes, not only is he a drinker but also somewhat cultured?

Inside, the Demon Tamers were discussing animatedly, giving Du Yu a headache, so he left the bookstore with Senior Brother Fu.

Ye Lingyu immediately chased after them, Du Yu waved in farewell, gesturing toward the distant parking lot: "I'll wait in the car.

By the way, is there any task-related item or something?"

During the Mountain Fire Blade challenge, the bookstore had provided Du Yu with a small Cold Lake Sword model.

"No need," Ye Lingyu shook his head, "You just need to head to the Central Lake District and announce your intention to the Cold Lake Sword."

"Alright, I'll head to the gate in an hour," Du Yu smiled as he said goodbye, "Thanks for the trouble."

"It's my duty," Ye Lingyu smiled and nodded, watching the brothers get into a pitch-black SUV before returning to the bookstore.

It wasn't clear how much time passed, just as Du Yu was resting, there was a knock on the car window.

"Knock knock~"

"Hmm?" Du Yu looked outside and saw a fisherman.

Well, well~ 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂

This outfit, Du Yu almost didn't recognize Ye Xihai.

The young Ye Xihai wore a conical hat and raincoat, with a pole used for punting a boat on his shoulder.

A proper fisherman's attire.

More interestingly, on the two ends of the pole stood one black cormorant bird each.

Water and Wind Dual-element Demon Beast· Crow Ghost Cormorant.

Du Yu opened the door and got out of the car, saying, "Long time no see."

"Du Yu, you came to Xi River City, why didn't you let me know?" Ye Xihai said with a smile.

Du Yu replied politely, "It was a spontaneous decision."

Ye Xihai's cultured, fair-skinned face really didn't match his fisherman attire.

He placed one hand on the pole and shook Du Yu's hand with the other: "I heard from my brother you're going to challenge the Cold Lake Sword?"

"Hehe," Du Yu also smiled, "Did I interrupt your chess game?"

"Huh?" Ye Xihai was a bit surprised, then smiled, "No, no, it was my dad and mom playing chess, I was catching fish for them.

Let's go, I'll take you to find the Cold Lake Sword."

Du Yu was somewhat puzzled: "Wasn't it cleared out? You can still get in?"

Ye Xihai: "The warning means consequences are at your own risk. Our Ye Family has good relations with the Cold Lake Sword, it can make an exception.

Besides, I'm just escorting you, not challenging it, it's fine.

The terrain in the Cold Lake Sword Realm is complex, finding it on your own would be troublesome."

Ye Xihai clearly wasn't just being polite; his genuine enthusiasm made Du Yu feel a bit disconcerted.

Is there a feeling of "who in the world doesn't know you"?

No way!

Isn't it said this king has few friends?

Du Yu thought for a moment and closed the car door with one hand: "Alright, let's go."

Watching the two walk away, Fu Jianzhou rolled down the window and warned, "Be careful!"

Du Yu waved his hand without looking back.

When the two reached the Demon Spirit Realm gate, Du Yu discovered another clever use for the pole: opening the way!
