I Have a Golden Crow

Du Yu took out the plastic jar from his bag and placed the small white flower inside, twisting the lid shut.

”Don’t run! Our battle isn’t over yet!” Fan Changhong shouted angrily. Perhaps because there were soldiers present, his behavior was very proper.

”But I don’t want to fight anymore.”

Fan Changhong looked furious: ”You think you can just stop fighting whenever you want? You just shot an arrow at me from behind!”

Du Yu: ”Don’t make a fuss, you were the one who stopped me and made the first move.”

Fan Changhong’s face was livid: ”You!”

Du Yu laughed, because with soldiers around, the man didn’t dare to curse, so he was left speechless? And was reduced to blurting out random words?

Du Yu: ”Why don’t you bring your mom along? Maybe you’d speak more fluently then?”

Fan Changhong was so enraged that his body trembled, his face flushed red: ”If I lose, I’ll give you this Demon Soldier I have!”

Du Yu was quite surprised; in the midst of their antagonism, the other suddenly said something like this.

Is all this commotion just for profit?

Du Yu seemed to understand the logic behind it; no matter how this man presented himself, his purpose was very simple.

Du Yu put the plastic jar containing the small white flower into his backpack and zipped it up: ”No bet, I’m not interested in your Demon Soldier.”

The surroundings had already returned to calm, and the soldiers didn’t stay around, although the young female soldier enjoyed watching the commotion up close, she had to reluctantly leave with the older soldiers.

Fan Changhong lowered his voice, squeezing out words through clenched teeth: ”Kid, what’s your name?”

Du Yu slung the tactical backpack over his back, and while retreating, shrugged his shoulders: ”I told you not to run, I told you to run that way, I told you not to run towards me.”

Fuming with rage, blood rushing to his eyes!

Fan Changhong’s eyes seemed to be able to kill, as he suddenly drew his bow and arrow, pointing straight at Du Yu: ”You’re a piece of shit!”

Whoosh~

Two gray birds suddenly flew out from Fan Changhong’s forehead, along with Wind Arrows, carrying two reasonably sized Little Wind Blades, heading straight for Du Yu’s face!

”Yip!” Xiaoyan let out a fox cry, rapidly gathering a large fireball in front of her face!

Du Yu quickly dodged to the left: ”Spark Splash!”

Both sides were indeed in the midst of combat, only slightly restrained earlier because of the soldiers’ presence. Or perhaps, the man’s ultimate goal was to gamble on that ”Twin Flower,” beneath his furious facade was a heart solely seeking profit.

”Boom!”

The fireball was precisely sliced by the two Little Wind Blades, and with the push of Wind Demon Breath, it exploded fiercely.

Heat waves surged, sparks flew everywhere.

Little Fen Yang suddenly spoke: ”If you want to win, it’s best to act fast and strike decisively.”

Du Yu took cover behind a large tree, secretly nodding. At his opponent’s age, he must be at least a Peak Level Demon Tamer, two Small Tiers above Du Yu.

Du Yu couldn’t break through his defense, but it didn’t matter, Hu Xiaoyan could!

The scale of her Demon Skill output was already at Earth-level Demon Skill standards.

”Ambush here, Spark Splash ready.” Du Yu placed Xiaoyan under the tree; with those short words, the strategy was set.

The overlapping flames from the previous explosion had not dissipated yet, and taking advantage of this bit of camouflage, he quickly ran towards the forested mountains behind them.

Xiaoyan hid behind the big tree, her pair of golden-brown fox eyes watching Du Yu’s retreating figure. There was no sadness in her eyes, only full trust.

And in front of her face, a fireball rapidly gathered.

A voice of approval from Little Fen Yang echoed in Du Yu’s mind: ”Good, let’s continue to provoke him until he loses his mind.”

Du Yu leaned against the big tree without hesitation, raised his head, and shouted loudly: ”By the way! I also told you to go to hell, and to wait for me.”

As he spoke, with the continuous boost of the Fire Demon Breath, the flame groove at the base of the Demon Soldier Silver Fire Bow faintly lit up.

”Little Wind Eagle, attack from both sides, surround him!” Fan Changhong was furious, suppressing his voice to a hoarse whisper.

The two Little Wind Eagles couldn’t hear their master’s orders directly, but bound by the Contract, they quickly circled around left and right.

In Fan Changhong’s eyes, Du Yu was just an arrogant and ignorant brat who didn’t know his own limits!

The Little Wind Eagles were fast, but the enraged Fan Changhong was even faster, rapidly closing in on the source of Du Yu’s voice.

And just as his figure passed by the tree where Du Yu had previously hidden, he caught something in the corner of his eye.

Fan Changhong suddenly turned his head and saw that behind the large tree, Xiaoyan had already detonated a fireball on the ground!

The spirited Xiaoyan, at this moment, transformed into Sixth Brother Yan!

She didn’t attempt to bomb the man’s body because the scene of the Double-leaf Grass Snake dodging was still vivid in her mind. Xiaoyan made her choice, she wanted to enter the second round of Spark Splash as quickly as possible!

”BOOM!”

The fireball hit the ground and exploded with a roar!

”Woo~ woo...” Xiaoyan whimpered softly, despite the explosion site being closer to the enemy and farther from herself, the attack was strong but her defense weak, her Demon Breath Battle Robe was still shattered, and she was blasted back repeatedly.

”Damn it... ahhh!” Fan Changhong let out a scream, instinctively protecting his head with one hand and curling up his body, getting blown away completely.

The Demon Breath Battle Robe shattered with the explosion, utterly ineffectual!

Heroic Bronze: Spark Splash!

Right at the moment the fireball exploded, Du Yu suddenly flashed out, the Demon Soldier Silver Fire instantly drawn to full power.

Eye of Burning Sun: Hunting Moment!

In that very instant, the entire world seemed to stand still...

”Screech~”

”Screech!” The call of the Little Wind Eagle should be clear and pleasing, but in Du Yu’s world, their sound slowed infinitely, becoming deep and resonant.

The Little Wind Eagles had just begun to circle around, not yet separating far, their wing beats unusually slow, and the two Little Wind Blades were slowly gathering and forming.

Du Yu’s heated eyes slightly squinted as he glanced at the two Little Wind Eagles and saw the two slowly emerging Little Wind Blades. In the end, he looked at the man leaning his body, hands protecting his head and torso in a defensive posture.

I still call myself a Paper Crane Disciple!!!

”Thunk!”

The bowstring straightened and vibrated violently!

The entire world returned to its original speed.

The Silver Fire-coated arrow shot out rapidly, heading directly for the man who had been overturned!

Fan Changhong covered his head, turned his body, and curled his legs to protect his vital parts as much as possible. But this arrow went right through his armpit, viciously piercing into his liver on the right side!

”Uh... Ah! Aaah!” A continuous stream of shrill screams echoed, as Fan Changhong fell heavily to the ground.

Meanwhile, the silver flames burned fiercely, igniting frantically from inside to out!

It’s hard to imagine the sensation of having one’s internal organs burn, a thousand ant bites? Perhaps even more...

”Szzz! Szzz!”

Du Yu leaped into the air where he had stood before, and two Little Wind Blades slashed the ground, leaving deep gouges, forming an ”X”.

”Stop! Stop!!!” A startled voice came from the woods.

A young female soldier arrived with the wind, rapidly assembling green light spots into a large wooden stake, and she also broke the Silver Fire arrow.

”Aaah! Aaah aaah!” Fan Changhong continued to scream, his voice shrill and hair-raising.

A section of the Silver Fire arrow was broken, but the tip still lodged inside the man’s liver, burning fiercely, refusing to relent...

Demon Soldier Silver Fire, Demon Arrow Array named Ignite!

”Stop screaming, quickly channel your Demon Breath, protect your internal organs!” the female soldier’s voice was exceptionally stern.

”Uh... Woof, woof...” Fan Changhong’s face was pale, writhing painfully on the ground, his screams even carrying a sobbing tone.

The female soldier pressed his head down, fixing his position, then hastily swung her hand down.

”Thud” sounded a muffled noise!

The prepared wooden stake crashed heavily onto the anguished man’s body, even embedding him slightly into the ground.

At that moment, numerous branches scattered, cocooning the man, and green light spots spread abundantly, rippling widely.

Whew~

The female soldier was saving the injured here, while over by Du Yu, a gust of wind had already blown past.

The two Little Wind Eagles were immediately blown away, struggling to stabilize in the air.

”The battle is over, return to your master,” the old soldier said as he stepped out from behind the tree, silently staring at Du Yu.

After Fan Changhong was cocooned by tree vines and leaves, the young female soldier was still shaken, turning to look for Du Yu.

In her memory, this child should have awakened not long ago, even though he previously lured the Double-leaf Grass Snake, showing good quality and potential, but now...

Continuous provocation→Ambush at point→Kill with one strike!

The events that transpired in just a few seconds were far beyond the soldiers’ expectations.

Fan Changhong was overwhelmed by anger, losing his rationality, underestimating and arrogant, stepping on every landmine that a Warrior should avoid, and his defeat wasn’t undeserved!

The female soldier was willing to believe that Du Yu could execute such a strategy, and believed that the Heterochromatic Little Fire Fox was the main contributor in breaking through the enemy’s defense.

But the real question was whether Du Yu’s earlier arrow was truly skilled or just pure luck?

That arrow not only precisely struck the moving target, but the timing of the Battle Robe shattering and Silver Arrow piercing was seamless!

”Yip!” a small Fox Cry sounded, and the female soldier turned to see the Little Fire Fox staggering toward Du Yu.

Du Yu, lying on the ground, had blurry vision and dared not get up and walk, only trying to appear as normal as possible, reaching out toward Xiaoyan.

Through tear-filled eyes, Du Yu only saw a fiery red figure pounce, he tightly embraced Xiaoyan, kissing her head lightly: ”Thank you, I’m sorry you had to endure so much.”

”Yip~” Xiaoyan cooed, softly yipping, then raised her fluffy little head, her pink tongue gently licking Du Yu’s cheek.

She seemed a little aggrieved, yet a little happy.

The old soldier lifted the wooden stake, saying, ”Let’s go, take him to the hospital.”

The female soldier looked at Du Yu: ”He...”

The old soldier said softly, ”We’re here, so naturally he won’t need to call for help for the wounded after the battle. This was a normal skirmish,”

”Yes.” The young female soldier stood up and hurriedly followed, whispering, ”This kid is quite spiritual, the Heterochromatic Little Fire Fox was raised well, with deep emotional bonds, very trusting of its master.”

”Indeed.” The old soldier sighed lightly, then shook his head with a smile, ”Heh.”

The young female soldier curiously asked, ”What’s up, Master?”

The old soldier: ”I’ve stationed here for so many years, it’s the first time I’ve seen someone accidentally uncover the only way to get Twin Tree Flower, maybe this kid really has some potential?”

Female soldier: ”We can’t blame the previous practitioners too much, it’s quite difficult to find Demon Beasts entirely consumed by Cold Qi, they simply don’t have the conditions,

Recently, the Cold Qi here has been increasing. I’ve heard, the Cold Qi in other Otherworlds is also becoming more...”

Old soldier: ”Shhh!”
