"Impressive, my Qingci!" Du Yu turned his head, looking at the stunning figure beside him. "Haha~ I can live a long ti again!"
Celestial Cyan Porcelain: "..."
She glanced at Du Yu playfully: "You could have lived a long ti anyway."
"Hehe." Du Yu scratched his head, "I an, now I have the confidence to stand and fight the Cold Tree!"
However, Tian Qingci didn’t quite understand such a verb.
She asked in confusion: "Stand and fight?"
Du Yu: "It ans standing still to attack without dodging, facing the enemy head-on."
Celestial Cyan Porcelain thought for a mont and said: "You can give it a try, after all, the Cold Tree’s ans of attack are simple, only swaying its branches.
But it also depends on the size of the Cold Branches. The ones we encountered when we road the Ashen Continent were quite large.
With your small stature, facing those Cold Branches would require you to turn entirely into water."
Small?
Du Yu fell silent for a good while and whispered: "Among the Human Race, my size isn’t small, just a little shy of 1.8 ters tall."
"Heh." Celestial Cyan Porcelain laughed lightly, running her hand through her dark hair without responding.
The moonlight spilled over like rcury, brushing past the dense branches, casting over Celestial Cyan Porcelain.
It seed as if it painted a layer of cold moonlight on her Celestial Cyan dress.
The forest was silent, but Du Yu’s heart was in chaos.
Without a doubt, Du Yu was on the path to divine ascension.
And the figure beside him was the Divine itself.
That calmness from within, that supre aura above all else, fascinated Du Yu endlessly.
Celestial Cyan Porcelain looked at Du Yu, raising her eyebrows slightly.
"I’ve been promoted to Demon Taming General," Du Yu said abruptly.
"I noticed, congratulations." Celestial Cyan Porcelain smiled faintly.
"I feel my perspective of the world has sowhat changed." Du Yu gazed at the immortal shadow under the moon, without avoiding his gaze.
If it were any other woman, Du Yu’s behavior would certainly be impolite.
But the figure before him was Celestial Cyan Porcelain, his Demon Pet.
"Reverence is fine, as is longing," Celestial Cyan Porcelain understood the look in Du Yu’s eyes, seeing through his inner thoughts, "but there’s no need to envy; all you need is a little ti."
And on the path to Becoming a Saint, make sure not to fall unexpectedly.
Celestial Cyan Porcelain thought to herself, also hearing Du Yu’s voice: "I want to cut down the tree!"
"Hmm?"
Du Yu: "The Cold Tree."
Celestial Cyan Porcelain gently beckoned, and a Little Wandering Dragon quietly appeared, coiling around Du Yu’s body, flying in front of her.
Her expression was solemn, her eyes staring directly into Du Yu’s: "Give yourself so ti, Du Yu. The Youhan Tree is not sothing you can contend with at this stage."
Du Yu said: "It’s not what you think, I’m not going to cut down the Kunlun Cold Tree, nor am I going to provoke the Cold Trees in the Ashen World.
The Great Xia Bookstore is organizing an end-of-term exam, with the location set at a Bottomless Abyss."
Celestial Cyan Porcelain pondered silently, not responding.
"Could you let go of first?" Du Yu said softly.
Such a humble master.
Then again, any Demon Tar, even the Seven Saints of Great Xia, in front of Celestial Cyan Porcelain, would rightly remain humble.
Only those reclusive families, like the Hu Family who has contracted with the White Tiger for generations, might muster so courage before Celestial Cyan Porcelain?
Celestial Cyan Porcelain waved her hand, and the Little Wandering Dragon quietly vanished.
Du Yu gently landed, looking at the Supre before him: "When I burned the Cold Trees of Bottomless Kunlun, you were there the entire ti, knowing the deep hatred it holds for .
So, heading back to the Bottomless once again, I’ll need your escort."
Celestial Cyan Porcelain said flatly: "Protecting you is the most important thing in this world for ."
"Emm..." Du Yu was noticeably stuck for a mont.
Such heartwarming words,
Why say them in such a cold tone?
Celestial Cyan Porcelain continued: "But you should consciously avoid risks; your abilities no longer need to be assessed by exams.
Your achievents are enough to earn the reverence of the world.
This so-called exam, does it really have the qualification to evaluate you?"
"It does, Qingci," Du Yu spoke up, "The exam isn’t hosted by the school, but by the Great Xia Bookstore. You could even drop the ’Bookstore’ part.
Rather than an exam, it’s a part of the Great Xia Blueprint.
In a re two years, Great Xia has completed a triple jump in the mindset and vision of us Paper Crane Disciples and in the values of the world."
Celestial Cyan Porcelain gently observed Du Yu, waiting for more.
Du Yu: "First Test · Red and Blue Confrontation emphasizes the confrontation between the armies, uniting and cooperating.
And each of us, as individuals under the Grand Camp, are fighting for our camp.
Second Test · Ancient Wilderness City, Humans no longer fight among themselves but focus on cooperation from all sides against the Alien Race.
The Bookstore even deliberately downplays assessnt targets, using misleading thods to lure us into mistakes, joining the Alien Race camp."
This was indeed the case.
In the great background of the Twin Trees vs. Youhan Tree confrontation, everyone had to serve the greater good.
This, of course, included the chosen ones - the Paper Crane Disciples.
Needless to say, the Ancient Wilderness City was just an exam.
For the Great Xia Bookstore, the scores the students achieved didn’t matter.
What mattered was that, under nationwide attention, the Paper Crane Disciples perford this script well, performing for everyone to see.
To show the eternal regret of one misstep, to show the inability to save a collapsing building, to show all the severe consequences.
From this perspective, the candidates’ failure was far more valuable than success."
Du Yu pressed his lips together, lightly sighed: "And the third test leads directly to the Xuena Battle Zone.
The Bookstore brought out the Bottomless Cold Beasts and Demon Spirit Soldiers, making it clear who our comrades are and who the alien enemies are."
In the constant rescue of soldiers and by being rescued by them, the Bookstore through us candidates provided the world with a standard answer.
A set of value concepts, a battle ideology.
These past experiences were new to Celestial Cyan Porcelain.
She nodded lightly: "So, the exam is just a shell."
Du Yu shrugged: "The exam for the Paper Crane Disciples was too hot, practically of national interest, naturally becoming a tool of promotion for Great Xia.
Especially after the Xuena Battle Zone, even those disinterested in Paper Crane Disciples or even Demon Taming, would co to watch.
It was long past being just an exam; it’s a signal sent by a nation."
Celestial Cyan Porcelain: "You are to beco a part of the blueprint, to play your role."
Du Yu nodded emphatically: "Yes, the Great Xia is my foundation. Our goal is all the Youhan Tree."
Celestial Cyan Porcelain nodded gently: "I understand, then I will accompany you."
Du Yu felt relieved and laughed: "Should I thank the Supre Lord then?"
Celestial Cyan Porcelain shook her head with a smile; she liked Du Yu, liked his explanation.
In fact, Du Yu could have directly ordered Celestial Cyan Porcelain.
Of course, he could give orders to Celestial Cyan Porcelain, not as a master, but because of their emotional bond.
So, even if Celestial Cyan Porcelain harbored any dissatisfaction, she would still protect him.
But Du Yu didn’t do that, instead, he patiently explained everything to her, which was a sign of respect, and it prevented any potential misunderstandings and conflicts.
In the quiet mountain forest, a voice suddenly ca: "Junior Brother, the fish is grilled!"
"Oh, I’m coming!" Du Yu responded, heading towards the lake with Porcelain.
Celestial Cyan Porcelain spoke softly: "I hope the spirit branch within the Bottomless Abyss can trap the Cold Branch."
Du Yu: "Don’t worry, besides the spirit branch, we have another insurance."
"Oh?"
Du Yu: "The Bottomless Abyss is guarded by an ancient spiritual artifact."
Celestial Cyan Porcelain pondered for a mont and speculated: "You have a history with that ancient spiritual artifact?"
"Yes." Du Yu gazed at the bonfire by the lakeside, "It’s called the Jade Gourd, capable of imprisoning all living beings within it, including the Cold Tree."
Celestial Cyan Porcelain chewed on the peculiar words: "Jade Gourd."
"That was before I t you." Du Yu chuckled, "You know, wherever I go, I like to leave so good karma."
Coincidentally, the good karma has co to my testing ground~"
Looking at Du Yu’s slightly proud expression, Celestial Cyan Porcelain chuckled softly: "Heh."
Her master indeed liked leaving connections everywhere.
Hmm... a bit of a flirt.
As for why Celestial Cyan Porcelain described it that way...
She said: "Didn’t the Jade Gourd ask you to visit it? Or did you say you’d visit it before leaving?"
Upon hearing this, Du Yu’s face stiffened.
Seems like I did say that?
Back at Gourd Mountain Pass, when bidding farewell to the Artifact Spirit... No!
At that ti, I had just beco "Mrs. Du," absorbing the Demon Saint’s soul in the tower, unable to move.
It was Master Qing who said farewell to the Jade Gourd and promised to bring the disciple to visit?
Recalling the past, Du Yu’s expression turned strange.
Oh dear~
Turns out, my Master Qing is a bit of a flirt too?
"Junior Brother?"
"Ah, thank you, Senior Brother." Du Yu snapped back to reality, stepped forward quickly, and took the grilled fish from Fu Jianzhou’s hands.
"Wow!" Little Fen Yang cheered, "Quick, quick, take a sniff first!"
Sniff~
Du Yu twitched his nose, the aroma of the grilled fish was irresistible!
Little Fen Yang: "Open your mouth, ah woo and eat it all!"
Du Yu: "..."
Such a Human Master, even needs guidance on eating fish?
Fu Jianzhou glanced at Celestial Cyan Porcelain and smiled: "Long ti no see."
Celestial Cyan Porcelain nodded, then closed her eyes.
Even when cooked as barbecue, the fresh taste of Cold Water Fish was still evident.
Without any seasoning, the true flavor of the ingredients was fully revealed.
Celestial Cyan Porcelain savored carefully, looking content.
Fu Jianzhou picked up a grilled fish and took a bite.
Compared to himself, this fish was more for Bai Lan.
Fu Jianzhou and Du Yu both enjoyed "one fish, two eats," though the food entered their mouths, several beings could taste it.
Fu Jianzhou didn’t know that the Junior Brother is ranked even higher!
Du Yu not only eats two but "one fish, three eats"...
This Cold Water Fish was quite honored!
Feeding a human, a Dragon Turtle, and a Little Golden Crow~
"By the way." Du Yu turned to Porcelain, "The quality of Demon Skill·Mirror Flower Moon has matched the Supre Level, have you thought of a na?"
Celestial Cyan Porcelain: "Na?"
Du Yu: "Human society has classification nas for quality. 1 Heroic Bronze, 2 Unyielding Silver, 3 Glory Gold, 4 Xuan Platinum, 5 Cold Jade, 6 Eternal Diamond, 7 Shimring Starlight."
Fu Jianzhou looked surprisedly at Celestial Cyan Porcelain.
The demon skill of Supre Cyan Porcelain has finally reached the Eighth Level?
"A na in history!" Du Yu felt quite excited, "Human society hasn’t nad the Eighth Level yet! We can na it ourselves!"
Celestial Cyan Porcelain: "You could ask that ox, or the Kunlun White Tiger, they should have a na."
Du Yu waved his hand: "Niuniu always hides in the Mountain Realm, and the White Tiger is a reclusive demon beast, unlikely to be related to human society.
Forget them, let’s set our own standard!"
Fu Jianzhou smiled at the junior brother; this kid indeed had great ambition.
This is ant to set a standard for Great Xia in terms of demon skills?
Seeing the master’s eager spirit, Celestial Cyan Porcelain didn’t want to dampen it either.
She asked: "What is the Holy Grade Demon Skill called?"
Du Yu responded: "Seventh Level·Radiant Starlight."
"Stars?" Celestial Cyan Porcelain raised her head, looking at the bright full moon in the night sky.
Fu Jianzhou followed her gaze and said: "Great idea."
Celestial Cyan Porcelain was rely provoking more ideas; since the master was so interested, the specific na would be up to him.
In this way, it was a joint naming by both parties.
Her figure quietly integrated into Du Yu: "You decide."
Du Yu fell into deep thought: "Hmm... I must think carefully!"
