I Have a Golden Crow

A few minutes later, the Cyan Sect members returned victorious, flying out of the Bottomless Pit.

The Asa Soldiers stared at them, their eyes filled with awe, and even some fanaticism!

A long time ago, when Li Mengnan was still an adolescent, she had told Du Yu that one day she would become divine and revered, worshipped by countless followers.

Back then, they had only awakened for 1 or 2 days, they were true novices.

When the girl made such claims, Du Yu felt the urge to pretend he didn’t know her.

How embarrassing.

Whether Li Mengnan could fulfill her ambitions remained to be seen, but at this moment, it seemed Du Yu might actually succeed!

Most of the fervent gazes landed on Du Yu, the "Great Xia Woodcutter".

A few reverent glances also focused on the team leader, Yang Qingqing.

Everyone understood what the Great Xia Team’s escape from the Bottomless meant.

Moreover, the soldiers weren’t blind; they could see the thick smoke swirling in the Bottomless Pit, with only drifting ashes and no trace of the Cold Tree.

"Whiz~"

A Spirit Branch stretched out from the pit, startling the Asa Soldiers.

"Careful!"

"Great Xia people! Watch your step!" A wave of panic spread around the pit’s edge as shouts rang out.

Du Yu and the others looked down, knowing full well these were Spirit Branches, not Cold Branches.

The Asa Soldiers, like frightened birds, were truly terrified of being killed by the Cold Tree.

"Du Yu." The Spirit Branch coiled around Du Yu’s ankle, "Without me guarding by your side, the Youhan Saint Minister might come for you."

Du Yu wore a solemn expression and nodded.

Divine Tree: "You are different from all living things in this world.

To both me and the Cold Tree, you are someone who needs to be singled out and treated uniquely.

The Youhan Tree once tried to beguile you, then threatened to torment you, and today it tried to divide us, hoping to enslave you forever.

The Cold Tree is treacherous and unpredictable, yet its desire for you is unwavering!

The elusive Youhan Saint Minister should be coming for you."

Du Yu’s expression was serious, deeply agreeing.

Divine Tree: "Now, you have completed the mission, severed the Youhan Tree Root, and sealed the Bottomless Gate.

Return to the Kunlun Realm and focus on your cultivation.

Leave the Youhan Army to the Great Xia Corps and the armies of other nations to handle.

When we find the Saint Minister’s trace, we will eliminate and remove the threat and then speak."

Du Yu remained silent, lost in thought.

The Cyan Sect members watched quietly as Du Yu pondered, not interrupting him.

Since the Divine Tree only entwined Du Yu, the others did not know what conversation was taking place between the man and the tree.

Yang Qingqing wasn’t idly waiting in place but flew towards the edge of the pit.

Jiang Feng nodded at the group and then caught up with Master Qing.

"Someone who speaks Great Xia Language." Yang Qingqing hovered in mid-air, looking down at the soldiers below.

"Madam, hello!" Aisha respectfully gazed up at her revered figure.

Yang Qingqing looked at the blonde female officer and indeed felt she had some impression of her.

Because the disciple had previously captured a Female Emperor’s Minister who looked like her, only larger in size than this officer.

Yang Qingqing: "The Cold Tree is destroyed, and the Underground Gate has been sealed by our soldiers. Report immediately to your superiors and dispatch troops here.

Ensure that the soldiers guarding the gate at the bottom are not disturbed by any factors."

Aisha: "Yes!"

Yang Qingqing nodded in satisfaction, looked back, and saw Du Yu still communicating with the Spirit Branch.

"Madam?" Aisha’s voice came from below again.

"What?" Yang Qingqing, looking at her frowning disciple in contemplation, didn’t turn back.

Aisha removed the headphone from her ear: "A Great Xia officer is looking for you all, wanting to speak with you."

Yang Qingqing finally turned around, beckoning to the officer.

Once Yang Qingqing equipped the invisible headphones, the Cyan Sect’s vanguard rescue squad finally got in touch with their own corps.

The Great Xia Corps already learned of the uplifting news about the destruction of the Cold Tree from the Divine Wood Pavilion.

The other side gave Yang Qingqing high praise and commendation before informing her of battlefield news—the Youhan Army had been found.

Just outside Asa City, over 60 kilometers west, within a desolate mountain forest.

The Great Xia vanguard had already engaged with the Youhan Army. If the Cyan Gate Squad was in good condition, they could go to support.

Of course, this was merely a request, and whether to go or not depended on Yang Qingqing’s decision.

After all, Yang Qingqing and her disciples were not soldiers but were sent by the Great Xia Bookstore to assist with the mission, with only one goal: to fell the Cold Tree.

"Understood." Yang Qingqing responded in a deep voice, slowly flying into the sky, "Xiaofeng, go check on Du Yu."

"Yes." Jiang Feng quickly returned above the Bottomless, watching the silent Du Yu and asking, "Master Junior Brother?"

"Mm." Du Yu replied casually.

This "Mm" was quite the true transmission of Master Qing, causing Jiang Feng not to dare ask further for a moment.

"Divine Tree, I have several Spiritual Artifacts as protection, along with the Spiritual Qi you granted, the Youhan Technique can’t get near me." Du Yu looked down at the Spirit Branch.

The Spirit Branch coiled around his ankle in such a way, giving the illusion that the Divine Tree seemed quite humble...

Du Yu continued: "The Saint Minister can disguise and manipulate hearts.

If the other side chooses to hide and secretly create chaos, few in the world can resist it, leading to great turmoil."

What Du Yu feared most was the Cold Race people becoming a calamity in the world.

The Saint Minister could completely control a nation’s leader, like controlling the queen of the Asa Empire, thus instigating war.

The Cold Race people only have two abilities, yet it is precisely these two techniques that make the Cold Race a bug-like existence!

The other side, with their power alone, is enough to throw the entire world into chaos.

Du Yu also has reason to believe that the Youhan Army’s incursion into the Twin Trees Realm possibly carries the same intention, attempting to infiltrate various countries and dismantle the human alliance from within!

Thus, the Cold Race must die and be eradicated entirely!

Du Yu continued, "My presence can even lure out the Cold Race Saint Minister. If we can draw them out on the battlefield, that would be the ideal result.

Don’t worry, Divine Tree!

I have two Supreme Beings beside me, and my perception is extremely strong.

Moreover, I always have Kui Chou with me, ready for instantaneous movement, absolutely no problem!"

The Cold Race is very strong, that’s beyond doubt.

But Du Yu is equally formidable!

Kui Chou’s Demon Skill· Rapid Lightning Flash allows him to traverse freely, standing invincible.

In the past, Du Yu had been troubled by this demon skill, uncertain how to defeat Kui Chou and claim the Big Black Bull as his own.

It turns out, you cannot defeat Kui Chou.

In the end, it was Empress Huangtu who showed half of her seductive face and revealed her cunning heart.

She schemed against Niuniu, entered into a bet, and only then, in Du Yu’s incense-burning period, won a hand.

If you don’t gamble...

What do you have to win against Kui Chou?

Even with all your ability, at most you can end in a draw.

Because you can’t hold back Kui Chou, Niuniu will just beat the drum to retreat and fight next time.

Even in Elder Yinsuo’s predictions within the Bamboo Shadow Thunder Pool, Du Yu almost fell into the Abyss of the Ashen Continent - Bottomless Kunlun.

In that possibility, Du Yu’s team was almost annihilated!

Only one survived – Kui Chou!

Elder Yinsuo’s exact words were: The Thunder Bull fled far away.

Yes, that’s how domineering it is!

Not even the Cold Trees of the Ashen Continent can hold back the Ancient Bull, let alone a minor Saint Minister?

The demon skill that once gave Du Yu a headache is now going to give the enemy a headache.

It’s worth mentioning that currently, Du Yu’s level is not high enough to use Cold Jade· Rapid Lightning Flash.

Once Du Yu becomes a Saint, Kui Chou can adjust the Demon Skill· Rapid Lightning Flash to Shimmering Starlight quality, and Du Yu will be able to shimmer all over the world!

By then, Du Yu won’t need to bother the Void Axe anymore when traveling across the Demon Taming World.

"Since you’ve made up your mind..." The Spirit Branch seemed persuaded by Du Yu.

The slender Spirit Branch coils up, climbing up Du Yu’s thigh, extending to his abdomen.

Not only Du Yu.

In front of the Cyan Gate team’s six members high above the abyss, a Spirit Branch reached out to each of them.

Yang Qingqing slightly raised an eyebrow, not acting rashly.

The Spirit Branch pointed to the middle left side of her abdomen, a rarely mentioned acupoint belonging to a famous meridian – the Kidney Meridian of Foot Shaoyin.

The three most famous acupoints of this meridian are the Shenfeng Acupoint, Spirit Ruins Acupoint, Shen Cang Acupoint.

It’s precisely where the Ancient Spiritual Artifact contracted by everyone lies!

The next moment, Yang Qingqing’s breath halted, as she felt a dense influx of Spiritual Qi into this special meridian.

Earlier, the Spirit Branch injected immense Spiritual Qi into people’s Shenfeng Acupoints for protection.

And now, the Divine Tree offers a grand gift again!

The Spiritual Qi surged like mighty rivers, violently rushing, illuminating each acupoint in the meridian.

"Oh my..." Du Yu’s mouth hung open, involuntarily calling out a name to a stranger.

The Divine Tree entwines my legs, Spiritual Qi bestows longevity!

Du Yu’s body began to tremble gently, and as time passed, his trembling grew more intense.

For quite some time, Du Yu had been diligent in cultivating his role as a Spirit Master.

Even during those days catching snakes, he didn’t neglect his cultivation, always meditating under the Twin Trees in the Mountain Realm after the day’s busyness.

After all, Du Yu promised the Void Axe to pick it up soon.

And now, with the help of the Divine Tree, Du Yu finally broke through the shackles!

"Wow!" Inside Du Yu, the Little Golden Crow hovered next to the Kidney Meridian of Foot Shaoyin, watching as Spiritual Qi surged wildly, continually expanding the meridian.

"Hoo~" A circle of Spiritual Qi expanded out, carrying Fire Spiritual Qi, surging around.

Advancement!

Third Level·Spirit Master!

"Du Yu."

"Here."

Divine Tree: "I sensed your ambition, is it what I think it is?"

Du Yu felt the surging Spiritual Qi within, confidence rising greatly: "The Cold Trees wanted to enslave me, didn’t they? They even sent a Saint Minister."

Divine Tree: "Indeed."

Du Yu grinned: "To come without reciprocation would be impolite!"

It’s time to prove whether your Saint Minister is better or I, Du Yu, am more troublesome!

As for Emperor’s Slave, this king has long tired of that.

Holy Slave?

Sounds quite tempting indeed!
