I Have a Golden Crow

Chapter 862 - 573: Emperor Qing of Haitang

Finally satisfied Prince Yan, Du Yu strode forward towards the heavily injured Black Fire Sheep Servant.At this moment, the ground around it was already covered in black sheep blood, a sight too dreadful to witness.

Sniff~

Du Yu wrinkled his nose, sniffing the aroma of grilled meat as he walked over.

"Baa..." The Black Fire Sheep Servant’s voice was weak, howling in pain.

Such a tragic scene made Du Yu’s tears flow from the corner of his mouth.

It smells so good~

General Grade·Black Lamb Chop!

The meat is delicious, a top-quality cut, roasted to perfection by Chef Fox’s Flowing Flame, crispy on the outside and tender inside, looking quite appetizing.

Just short of sizzling and oozing oil...

"Wow!" Little Fen Yang licked his lips, with a greedy little look, "It looks so tasty."

Du Yu half knelt on the ground, his knee stained with a large patch of black sheep blood.

He composed himself, looking at the limp, shallow-breathing Black Fire Sheep Servant: "From now on, you will follow me as my war general."

"Eek!" Ancient Yan snuggled obediently at Du Yu’s side, responding softly.

Her pair of golden fox eyes struggled to shift from the roast meat to the eyes of the Black Fire Sheep Servant.

"Follow you." Through the Demon Soul, Du Yu received the Black Fire Sheep Servant’s thoughts.

But this was not an agreement, more a confused inquiry, like talking to itself.

"Yes." Du Yu continued, "I’ll lead you to become a god and a saint, maybe one day you’ll be as powerful as my Demon Pet, the Fire Fox."

Du Yu paused for a moment, remembering the teachings of Celestial Cyan Porcelain.

Then, he pressed his hand on the black sheep’s cheek, staring intently at its horizontal pupil: "You have no choice, submitting to me is your only path."

Du Yu indeed had the right to say such things.

If the black sheep were determined to die, swearing not to follow?

Then have Celestial Cyan Porcelain use the Water Attribute Treasure·Purple Abyss Water again~

Wash the Big Black Sheep again, and Du Yu can start all over.

Little black sheep, where can you run to?

"Baa..."

"Eek!" Ancient Yan cheerfully rubbed her head against Du Yu’s head.

Behind him, Li Mengnan’s face lit up with joy: "Success?"

Du Yu smiled and turned his head, waving to Senior Brother Fu: "Mo."

Fu Jianzhou: "..."

He silently called forth the Demon Pet, and the Heaven Returning Wood immediately extended its branches like bandaging wounds, covering the Black Fire Sheep Servant.

"Prince Du~"

"What?" Du Yu turned his head cautiously, looking at Ancient Yan.

Whenever she called him that, there seemed to be no good news?

Ancient Yan gently rubbed her furry fox head against Du Yu’s cheek: "Are you going to cut off that piece of roast sheep meat?"

Du Yu: "Do you want to eat it?"

Ancient Yan’s fox eyes gleamed, smiling seductively: "Anyway, Heaven Returning Wood will heal the Big Black Sheep."

Du Yu: "..."

Are you devils?

Unintentionally, Du Yu seemed to have opened a new world.

Black Fire Sheep + Heaven Returning Wood = infinite meat!

As long as Momo expends a little Demon Breath, everyone can eat their fill and drip with oil~

Hmm... but the Black Fire Sheep Servant suffers a bit.

But it’s just minor slicing.

For the sake of the master, the Black Fire Sheep Servant will surely be very willing...

"Eek?"

"No, no." Du Yu quickly shook his head, rejecting while also dispelling the messy thoughts in his mind.

The Black Fire Sheep Servant is already a commander, naturally, it should be treated better.

Du Yu reassured Prince Yan and Little Fen Yang, promising to treat them to Cold Lake grilled fish later, and then absorbed Ancient Yan into his body.

Gradually, the branches of Heaven Returning Wood transformed into a tree cocoon, enveloping the Black Fire Sheep Servant completely.

During the healing process, Du Yu explained the Spiritual Artifact·Black Robe matter to his senior and junior brothers and sister.

Listening to Du Yu’s story, their facial expressions were quite vivid.

Du Yu also took the opportunity to ask Li Mengnan to inquire with the Seven Treasures Master if there were any other spiritual artifacts in the domain space.

After a while, Li Mengnan said: "The Seven Treasures Master remembered that the villain indeed had a black robe.

As for other villains and other spiritual artifacts, there were none here.

Although many villains coveted the Seven Treasures Spirit Tree, when they faced intruders, the monks of the Mountain Temple just repelled them without capturing anyone."

"Hmm." Du Yu nodded, thoughtfully.

Fu Jianzhou spoke up: "Should we report to the bureau?"

Du Yu said: "I think we can first locate that black robe."

Fu Jianzhou raised an eyebrow, looking at Du Yu.

Du Yu thought for a moment and said: "Or, I could first report to Master Qing and then try to find the black robe.

After the task is properly completed, then report together to the bureau."

Strictly speaking, this task wasn’t assigned by the bureau.

Instead, a few people took the initiative, following a map and independently starting the task.

Fu Jianzhou pondered for a moment and didn’t say anything else.

Some things go unsaid.

And Du Yu choosing to report to Master Qing was already sufficient for Fu Jianzhou.

Li Mengnan naturally obeyed Du Yu unconditionally, seeing that the senior brother had no more objections, Du Yu immediately withdrew the Black Fire Sheep Servant and Heaven Returning Wood into the Sea Realm.

He said, "Mengnan, take us out."

It was clear that ever since Li Mengnan had a peculiar idea, Du Yu had been somewhat wary of the "nested spatial zone" matter.

As Li Mengnan held the staff and gently tapped the ground, everyone immediately returned to the Cold Lake Shore.

Du Yu: "I’ll go report to Master Qing, senior brother, could you do me a favor?"

Fu Jianzhou nodded immediately: "Say it."

Du Yu: "Could you grill a few fish for me? Xiaoyan wants to eat the fish from this cold water."

Fu Jianzhou: ???

Fu Jianzhou was completely speechless, thinking it was something important, but it turned out to be just this?

You’re amazing, you’re so aloof!

You please your Demon Pet by making me go into the water to catch fish for you to grill!

"Catch more, Senior Brother!" Li Mengnan wrapped Du Yu’s arm with one hand and smiled at Senior Brother Fu, "I want to eat too."

The girl’s smile was sweet, and her big eyes were sparkling.

Who could refuse that?

"Alright, alright." Fu Jianzhou held his forehead with one hand, speaking helplessly.

The girl’s posture clearly indicated she wanted to go with Du Yu to report the task to Master Qing.

As the bell shadows flickered, Fu Jianzhou stood alone on the Cold Lake Shore.

"Sigh..." someone sighed gently.

A dignified Demon Taming General, catching fish for his junior brother and sister to eat... what a great senior brother, where can you find such a person?

Fu Jianzhou mumbled to himself, diving straight into the Cold Lake Water.

Sss...

It’s freezing cold!

Meanwhile, in the Sea Realm.

Du Yu and Li Mengnan stood on the Sea Reef, with the Heaven Returning Wood Mo still wrapped around the Black Fire Sheep Servant beside them, healing its injuries.

"Mo, wait for us here for a bit." Du Yu said, summoning Wind around the feet to ignite flames, flying towards the beautiful Begonia Forest.

Behind, the Heaven-Returning Wood Branch swayed up and down, obediently following orders.

Li Mengnan also had Wind around the feet, catching up: "By the way, what should I call that space behind my Seven Treasures Staff?"

Du Yu looked at the girl beside him with a peculiar expression: "You, a naming genius, still need to ask me?"

Seven Treasures here, Treasure Staff there,

Aren’t these all names?

Li Mengnan: "I actually have many names. But your space is called Mountain Realm, Sea Realm, and Master Qing’s space is called Jiangshan Realm.

I also want to pick a name that fits the style."

Du Yu: "Your space is all barren mountains and wildlands..."

Li Mengnan: "It will become lush and green. I’ll plant many flowers, herbs, and trees, and rebuild the Mountain Temple.

By the way, the Seven Treasures Master also said that hundreds of years ago, there was a peach forest around the Mountain Temple."

Du Yu: "Peach Blossom Forest?"

"Yes." Li Mengnan nodded repeatedly, "Forget about peach trees, I plan to plant Demon Plant·Wind Peach Trees, a whole lot of them!"

The more Li Mengnan spoke, the more excited she became, with a sense of expectation for setting up a new home.

It’s time for dad to show the power of money and express fatherly love!

Du Yu was suddenly reminded of a line of poetry: ’When all flowers fade in the world, the peach blossoms at the Mountain Temple bloom.’

Thinking about it, it feels so artistic.

All the flowers wither, while mountain peaches alone flourish.

Du Yu: "Peach Blossom Spring... Peach Blossom Forest sounds nice."

"Not bad!" Li Mengnan clapped Du Yu’s shoulder, "As expected, my second brother is knowledgeable.

Peach Blossom Forest, not bad, not bad, then it’ll be called the Peach Blossom Realm!"

Du Yu, however, was not pleased: "If you insist on having ’Realm’ in it, why not call it the Peach Blossom Spring Realm, which sounds much nicer?

The ’source’ in ’source of origin’, not ’garden’."

"Peach Blossom Spring Realm..." Li Mengnan’s eyes lit up, clicking her tongue, "Sounds even better!"

Du Yu shrugged, it’s just that my skills are a bit rusty.

If I could recite ’The Peach Blossom Spring’, wouldn’t that scare you?

Something about suddenly coming across a Peach Blossom Forest, enclosed by hundreds of steps... uh.

What comes after that?

As he pondered, Du Yu slowly descended towards the Shatang Courtyard, seeing no trace of Master Qing under the trees, he looked towards the northern main room.

The window of the boudoir was surprisingly open, and Du Yu descended directly, peeking inside.

From afar, the room was neat and dust-free, with a large, ancient, luxurious bed in sight.

Behind the bed’s canopy, there seemed to be a hazy figure.

"Hey? What are you doing!" Li Mengnan hurriedly grabbed Du Yu, intending to take him to knock on the door.

At the same time, there was a "whoosh" sound.

A Jinping Vine swooped in, lashing out at the thief by the window!

Du Yu shrank back his head, quickly floating towards the front door.

Unfortunately,

Nothing was seen~

"Knock, knock, knock." Du Yu raised his hand to knock on the door, "Master Qing? Master Qing... hmm?"

Sensing something, he turned his head to look.

Only to see a slender jade hand reaching out from the bedroom window, beckoning gently.

For a moment, Du Yu and Li Mengnan exchanged glances.

Pushed by Li Mengnan, Du Yu walked quickly to the window, greeted properly: "Master Qing."

But to his surprise, the woman suddenly curled her fingers and flicked Du Yu’s forehead.

"Crack! Crack..."

In an instant, Du Yu’s Demon Breath Battle Robe was covered with fine cracks.

If she had used a little more force, his Demon Breath Battle Robe would have shattered!

"Uh." Du Yu grinned, covering his forehead with both hands, hastily backing away.

He looked up and saw the Immortal Master’s figure.

She was dressed in a light green bathrobe, full of a palace style, flowing and gorgeous.

Du Yu had not seen this outfit for a long, long time.

Her face had a kind of hazy beauty, like "spring sleep among the begonias," apparently still not fully awake, her slumber disturbed by someone.

The way she looked at Du Yu also carried a hint of reproach: "What’s the matter?"

Du Yu replied, "We have results regarding the search for Seven Treasures Mountain, Mengnan and I are here to report to Master Qing."

"Hm, go on." The woman sat by the table, casually picking up a small porcelain cup.

Du Yu murmured in his heart, couldn’t even allow entry for a sip of tea?

Emperor Qing,

Such great authority?

If you become a Saint in the future, what then?

Yang Qingqing took a gentle sip of tea, setting down the porcelain cup: "I’m listening."

Du Yu snapped back to reality, speaking properly: "Ah, so here’s what happened..."
