I Have a Golden Crow

Outside the bamboo forest, Du Yu gazed at the tiny figure atop the giant snake head, feeling a stir in his heart.

The emerald green bamboo snake, akin to bamboo material, and the Immortal Master in a light green dress...

They truly match!

Fu Jianzhou suggested, ”Shall we head over?”

”Let’s go.” Du Yu lightly nudged the deer’s belly with his legs, and Bai Yujing immediately flew towards the bamboo forest.

When the group arrived, they happened to witness Master Qing signing the contract.

The woman’s fingertip drew a faint contract thread, touching the snake’s head.

”Puff~”

The massive bamboo snake shattered into endless Wood Demon Breath, rapidly flowing into her body.

”Hmm...” Yang Qingqing closed her eyes enjoying, letting out a soft nasal sound.

The entry of the Demon Saint into her body evidently provided great nourishment for the Demon Tamer and gave Emperor Qing confidence to confront the Youhan Army.

Du Yu inhaled the fresh scent of the bamboo forest after the rain, watching the light green figure in silence, lost in thought.

Until a patterned bird head quietly leaned down, gently rubbing its soft feathers against Du Yu.

”Trouble you, Sorrow Sea.” Du Yu patted the bluish-gray feathers on the bird’s head.

A sudden lyric flashed in his mind: ”Unveiling the cloudy sky, as beautiful as blue velvet.”

Coincidentally, the bird’s feathers fit this phrase perfectly.

Because its feathers were ”blue gradient silver-gray.”

Unveiling the mysterious silver-gray clouds, Du Yu truly saw the blue velvet within.

”Thank you, she will like it.” The bird of sorrow pressed its head against Du Yu, enveloping the small human body in clouds, bringing it into the blue velvet blanket.

Du Yu: ”Who?”

The bird of sorrow: ”I will convey your assessment of us to Sorrow Sea.”

”Oh.” Du Yu chuckled, realizing the other was talking about Elder Feng’s Demon Pet, the Female Sorrow Sea.

One must indeed be cautious around the Great Demon Saint!

For instance, at this moment, Du Yu was entirely immersed in the ”blue velvet blanket,” with the Sorrow Bird deliberately communicating with Du Yu, consistently enveloping him in Demon Soul.

This caused all of Du Yu’s thoughts to pass on to the other.

Lucky that it was a Demon Beast, not a human girl.

If not, such sincere praise from Du Yu might be mistaken for a heartfelt confession?

That would be quite amusing... wait, no.

Humans don’t have fur, nor do they have blue velvet blankets!

”Is there a continuation?” the Sorrow Bird asked softly, ”Next time we meet, I’d like to tell her about it.”

”There is actually.” Du Yu laughed, ”Just afraid it might evoke longing in the listener.”

The Sorrow Bird softly said, ”I am longing for her right now.”

Du Yu caressed the feathers, ”Actually, what I said earlier, is part of the continuation.”

”What are you doing?” Emperor Qing’s voice came, gentle in tone.

The scene before them was indeed what Demon Tamers dream of.

A mightily powerful Demon Saint standing by a tiny human, protecting each other, leaning on each other.

This is undoubtedly a perfect interpretation of ’taming.’

”Telling stories.” Du Yu turned, lying back into the feathers, and used Demon Soul to convey the message, ”After I return, I’ll have Senior Brother Fu compose a tune.

When the time comes, I’ll play it for you, and you can hear what you can discern from it, and I’ll tell you the continuation.”

Sorrow Sea: ”About love and longing, isn’t it?”

Du Yu was startled as if awakening from a dream, immediately ”rose,” and stepped out of the blue velvet.

He couldn’t stay in the velvet blanket!

Staying a moment longer, the Great Demon Saint would surely sense everything!

”Chirp~” Within the melodious bird song, there seemed to be a hint of mirth.

The majestic body of the Sorrow Bird transformed into a gust of Wind Demon Breath, rushing towards Emperor Qing nearby.

Yang Qingqing’s eyes were gentle, quietly admiring this scene.

Until the beautiful Luan Bird vanished from sight, only then did she calm her heart slightly, reaching to one side.

It’s worth mentioning that the Mountain Fire Saber did not return to Master Qing’s body; it still hovered above the crowd, providing protection for its master.

”Hiss~” The grand entrance of the giant python was quite unique.

Typically, demon beasts summoned from within a Demon Tamer appear as a whole.

However, this Bamboo Snake Saint emerged piece by piece from Emperor Qing’s hand.

It crawled out while piecing its successive body together.

Du Yu finally got the chance to observe this powerful Demon Saint up close.

The head of the bamboo snake was over ten meters wide, with the subsequent snake body also ten meters wide.

Though it sounds large, the characteristic of the Bamboo Snake Race remained, for the Snake Saint was still ’slender.’

Compared to the width, the 200-meter-long body of the bamboo snake left everyone amazed silently.

How many sections does this body have?

Seven meters per section?

Until the Bamboo Snake Saint was fully visible, encircling everyone with its bamboo body.

A sight of verdant green, the refreshing bamboo fragrance wafted over, refreshing the mind.

As people stood on the ground, the Bamboo Snake Saint could hardly look directly at them.

It could only first raise its neck and then drop its head to observe.

”Find a clansman to help you manage the Bamboo Snake Race,” Yang Qingqing looked up at the Snake Saint, ”Before you leave, so that the clan won’t be headless and fall into chaos.”

In fact, Yang Qingqing didn’t have to speak, for the two were communicating mindfully through the contract.

She spoke to let the disciples understand the situation.

”Hiss...” The Bamboo Snake Saint raised its head high, letting out a chilling hiss.

Soon, a bamboo snake crawled over, looking cautious.

Yang Qingqing commanded, ”Tell your clansmen to obey the new clan leader. There must be no unrest within the clan.”

The Bamboo Snake Saint hissed sharply: ”Hiss!!!”

In the vast bamboo forest, the bamboo trees kept shaking, causing a slight tremor in the ground.

Yang Qingqing nodded in satisfaction: ”By the way, what’s this place called?”

”Hiss.”

”The Forest of Ten Thousand Snakes.” Yang Qingqing murmured, then waved to Lin Shiwei.

General Lin walked with a commanding presence, his black robe fluttering in the wind, exuding a formidable aura.

The Bamboo Snake Saint stared intently at the human girl, as if discovering a brand new continent.

It’s all because the owner was too dazzling.

Only now did the Bamboo Snake Saint see the others overshadowed by Yang Qingqing’s brilliance.

The more it looked, the more alarmed the Bamboo Snake Saint became!

This group of humans, each of them is something not to be trifled with, right?

Especially the young man with reddened eyes, counting how many segments the snake’s body had.

Unconsciously, the Bamboo Snake Saint’s seven-inch spot shivered violently!

This person’s eyes, this feeling...

”Master Qing.” Lin Shiwei came before Emperor Qing.

Yang Qingqing: ”This is your world.”

Lin Shiwei didn’t refute, but said in her heart: It’s the world I helped Du Yu carry.

Yang Qingqing spoke: ”The Chi Bear Race in this realm doesn’t harm people or hunt any creatures, but the Bamboo Snake Race is different.

If we want to develop this realm or do anything here, the Snake Race is a threat.

Therefore, you must become an existence above the Snake Race’s leader, just like Du Yu is to all beings of the Mountain Realm.”

Lin Shiwei nodded lightly: ”Yes.”

The reasoning is obvious.

Before the girl fully subdues the Snake Race, this world is not truly everyone’s ”home”, but rather a hunting ground in another world.

Inside and outside the bamboo forest, danger lurks everywhere!

Yang Qingqing: ”This task cannot be completed overnight, but you can first conquer the new leader of the Bamboo Snake Race.

Then use it to command the thousands of bamboo snakes in the realm, achieving twice the result with half the effort.”

As she spoke, the woman gestured towards the not-so-distant Demon Emperor·Bamboo Snake.

Lin Shiwei looked back, locking eyes with one of the snake emperor’s snake pupils.

”Hiss~” The snake emperor hissed softly, recoiling its snake head.

Emperor Qing conquered the Snake Saint.

Now, it’s Wei’s turn to tame the Snake Emperor.

The Cyan Sect tradition is all about ”challenging authority from below”!

Of course, Yang Qingqing is not truly in a weak position; she is wielding the Holy Weapon·Mountain Fire Saber and fighting alongside the Demon Saint·Sorrow Sea Bird.

The Double Saints overwhelmingly subdued the Bamboo Snake Saint.

But Lin Shiwei is different.

She is the Demon Taming General, and her entire army of Demon Pets is at the General Level.

Only the Dust Spirit Deer·Bai Lu is at the Peak Stage of Demon General Level, very close to the Emperor Level, but hasn’t yet broken through.

To conquer a Demon Emperor is no easy task.

Yet Yang Qingqing has high hopes for her disciple: ”As the master of this realm, take action personally; treat it as my test of your cultivation progress...”

The words were not fully spoken when Yang Qingqing suddenly stopped.

Everyone looked at Master Qing in curiosity, only to find the woman’s calm expression becoming increasingly serious.

The disciples dared not utter a word, and both the Snake Saint and Snake Emperor stayed completely still.

The bamboo forest fell into a deathly silence, only the flames of the Mountain Fire Saber above them crackled in the wind.

They waited for over 20 seconds before Du Yu finally couldn’t hold back.

He looked at the frowning Immortal Master, concerned, ”Master Qing?”

Yang Qingqing spoke immediately, ”Shiwei, this task is temporarily postponed; find another time to execute it. Now, take us out.”

The Mountain Fire Saber and the Bamboo Snake received their master’s mind’s intent, both shattering into Demon Breath, rushing toward Yang Qingqing.

”Yes!” Lin Shiwei did not dare to hesitate, she immediately raised her right hand, as if inviting the heavens.

In mid-air, a Gilded Bronze Seal suddenly appeared, crashing down heavily.

The golden Tiger Po on the seal was imposing, overlooking all beneath it with the majesty of a king.

”Hoo~”

The Celestial General’s Seal enveloped everyone, and the scene before them changed abruptly, instantly teleporting them to the Bamboo Ring Snake Garden outside Xunyang City.

In front of them stood Senior Brother Li Jing, who was similarly grave, speaking on the phone.

Li Jing finished the call in a few words and quickly approached, ”Master Qing, you received the message too?”

”Asa Empire, Youhan Army.” Yang Qingqing said solemnly, she had left a Rotten Wood Body in the Twenty-Ninth Bureau.

”Ah?” Du Yu was startled, what did he just hear?

Youhan Army?

Li Jing looked at Du Yu, speaking quickly, ”Great Xia received a distress signal from the Asa Empire.

Now, the Demon Spirit Squad is rushing westward.

The Demon Spirit Squad also sent a request for assistance to the Great Xia Bookstore, which has tasked our bureau with the mission to cut down the Cold Tree and seal the Bottomless Gate as quickly as possible!”
