The Shatang Tree and the Sea-devouring Dragon Turtle have finally t!
These two forr "Prison Wardens" have endured centuries of distant companionship, yet remained in a state of estranged coexistence.
The last ti the tree and the dragon turtle made contact, it was because of a fight...
That encounter was when Shatang sheltered Du Yu to the Mountain Realm; Qingci believed Shatang Tree had broken its vow by aiding the prisoner in escaping.
That battle was tumultuous beyond asure.
Unfortunately, Du Yu and Yang Qingqing had gone to the Mountain Realm, struck by lightning, and couldn’t witness that world-shaking battle.
Now, with misunderstandings between the wardens resolved, they have no choice but to beco friends.
Because they share a common Lord of Mountains and Seas—Du Yu!
The mont they t was like a beautiful painting.
Under the towering crimson ancient wood, lay a celestial cyan porcelain dragon turtle.
Without saying a word, Du Yu took several photos in quick succession.
Since he wasn’t photographing Master Qing, Du Yu had ample ti to adjust the angles...
Afterward, an exceptionally rare beautiful photo beca Du Yu’s phone screen background.
After unlocking the screen, the tree remained the sa tree, but the creature beneath it had changed to Master Qing.
The woman in the picture hovered in mid-air, as if leisurely drifting within the sea, her long hair flowing, her skirt fluttering.
A group of Little Dragon Carp swam around her body.
Master Qing, Qingci.
The two equally noble and graceful creatures together ford Du Yu’s phone background image lock screen.
Master Qing was very gracious, not making Du Yu delete the photo.
Because... Prince Du didn’t dare show her the phone!
"This lifeti is worth it~" Inside the north main house of Firethorn Courtyard, Du Yu sat alone at the Eight Immortals Table, admiring his phone.
By this ti, a whole week had passed since Du Yu took the photo.
Yet he still couldn’t put it down, finding it increasingly dreamlike.
How could there be sothing so beautiful in the world?
It truly is...
"Du Yu, Du Yu?" From outside the window ca a girl’s voice.
Du Yu’s heart tightened; if it were Li ngnan shouting, he’d not be surprised.
Crucially, it was Lin Shiwei’s voice.
He hurriedly stood up, pushed open the bedroom’s wooden window: "What’s up?"
Poised to push the door open, Lin Shiwei quickly walked towards the west side: "I’m about to advance; Master Qing wants us to go to the Mountain Fire Saber now."
Du Yu’s eyes lit up: "So quickly?"
Lin Shiwei smiled and nodded: "Yes."
As the Savior, the talent potential of the third sister was indeed higher than that of the older brother!
"Let’s go!" Du Yu climbed out of the window, suddenly thinking of sothing, "Wait a mont, I’ll just inform Qingci."
While speaking, a breeze and starlight wound around Du Yu’s feet, soaring directly to the sky.
Lin Shiwei looked up at Du Yu, the admiration in her eyes gradually turning into determination.
If all goes well, she too can wind the wind around her feet, moving swiftly and freely.
Yes, if all goes well...
Before Du Yu flew over the courtyard wall, he saw a girl curled up, lying asleep atop the cyan dragon turtle beneath the towering ancient wood.
"Good fellow~"
Du Yu grinned; what a fierce warrior!
Full of fire, sleeping on a cold bed?
The Celestial Cyan Porcelain body was imnsely large, its curving cyan porcelain shell similar to a flat bed for the small Human Race.
The Qingci large bed was indeed beautiful, but icy cold. Li ngnan didn’t fear the chill...
He shouted loudly: "Qingci, I have to go out, help Shiwei advance!"
"Hmm." Li ngnan propped up her upper body with one hand on the Qingci large bed, looking drowsily at Du Yu.
"Hiss..." Celestial Cyan Porcelain emitted a low dragon hum.
Lying beneath the tree, she did not move.
Who wouldn’t love the Shatang Tree with dual Water and Wood attributes?
Even though Celestial Cyan Porcelain is an Ancient Demon Saint, already capable of establishing sects and creating a Demon Spirit Civilization.
But it doesn’t stop her from enjoying the Water Demon Breath released by the Shatang Tree.
It’s worth ntioning that Celestial Cyan Porcelain is really a sleep god!
Ever since visiting Shatang Mansion and eting Du Yu’s family, Celestial Cyan Porcelain slept soundly beneath the Shatang Tree.
If her dragon head and turtle body weren’t distinctive, Du Yu might almost think she was a Little Orange Pig...
"Is the third sister advancing?" Li ngnan woke up and asked, looking up.
"Yes, you need to work hard too." Du Yu said with a smile.
Li ngnan’s face tinged with red, softly defending: "I only slept for a little while; the sky’s not even dark yet."
Du Yu: "..."
Li ngnan moved her hips, cautiously sliding down: "Qingci, I’m going to cultivate, and will bring dried fruit to you later."
"Hmm."
Receiving Qingci’s response, Li ngnan felt delighted.
Du Yu found life dreamlike, and the girl felt similarly.
A whole week had passed, yet she still couldn’t believe she could beco partners with an Ancient Demon Saint.
Even just witnessing an Ancient Demon Saint was a blessing for a Demon Tar.
With this alone, Li ngnan already surpassed 99% of Demon Tars.
Not to ntion, she had personally fed an Ancient Demon Saint.
Du Yu looked at Li ngnan: "Do you want to co along? When Shiwei advances, the energies between heaven and earth will be particularly dense, maybe it could help you push through?"
"Don’t complicate matters." Master Qing’s voice suddenly appeared.
Du Yu lowered his head, seeing nothing but hearing the voice: "ngnan and Shiwei’s body attributes vary, which may lead the attributes of Celestial Punishnt to differ.
This can result in chaotic energies between heaven and earth, disrupting the Demon Tar’s advancent rhythm."
Du Yu: "I understand."
"Get after I reach Mountain Fire Saber."
"Got it!" Du Yu turned and flew towards Firethorn Courtyard, landing steadily in front of Lin Shiwei.
"Good luck, Third Sister!" Li ngnan walked through Firethorn Courtyard, waving repeatedly as she headed towards Dust Spirit Garden.
Lin Shiwei nodded vigorously, "Hmm."
"Whew~"
The Mountain and Sea Bell flashed montarily, and the pair vanished without a trace.
After returning to the residence on the 16th floor, the two dared not delay and imdiately went downstairs to get the car.
The reason for going to Mountain Fire Saber was due to the Celestial Punishnt; it might be hard to find the Sea Realm!
Everything has pros and cons.
Celestial Punishnt is indeed a thod heaven uses to hinder a Demon Tar from becoming a god.
But at the sa ti, the energy drawn when heaven’s wrath descends is needed to help Demon Tars break through their shackles.
"Congratulations, you’re finally about to beco a Great Demon Tar." Du Yu drove swiftly through the city, glancing at the girl in the passenger seat.
"It’s still too slow." Lin Shiwei shook her head, still dissatisfied with her cultivation speed.
Even though she has surpassed most Demon Tars, and is at the top among the Paper Crane Disciples.
Yet beside Du Yu, her pace was still slow.
A year ago, since she stepped into Master Qing’s House, her goal was to walk side by side with Du Yu, facing the world’s troubles together.
However, during the period when Lin Shiwei didn’t advance, Du Yu went alone to battle Mountain Fire Saber.
In Lin Shiwei’s view, such a dangerous task should have been faced by the two of them together.
Before, when Du Yu gifted her the Demon Lamp Po, he jokingly said: I need a fierce warrior beside to draw aggro.
Lin Shiwei very much wanted to be this fierce warrior.
But unfortunately, no matter how she chased, Du Yu was getting further and further away from her...
"Cheer up, you’re about to take the first step toward Becoming a Saint," Du Yu said, "A height many can’t reach in a lifeti."
"Hmm." Lin Shiwei smiled a bit perfunctorily.
Du Yu was speechless.
Most people, when having a chance to advance to Great Demon Tar, would either be overjoyed or anxious and scared.
Du Yu could understand these emotions.
But what was with Little Shiwei’s situation?
Why did it seem like she was a bit sad?
Du Yu changed the topic: "By the way, have you decided which Demon Pet to contract next?"
"The family arranged one for ." Lin Shiwei slid the seat back, crossing her long legs.
Having stayed too long in the Sea Realm, she got used to the sandy ground and redwood chairs.
Now even the passenger seat could be sat in like a sofa...
Du Yu asked puzzledly, "What?"
Lin Shiwei: "Dream Dance Fla Butterfly."
"Ah." Du Yu nodded knowingly, "It seems Lin Family’s Demon Pets are quite consistent?"
At least three standard ones: Rose Spirit, Wooden Stump, Dream Dance Fla Butterfly.
These three Demon Pets: Master Qing has them, Lin Chuan has them, and Li ngnan is about to have them too.
"Our family specializes in cultivating several types of Demon Pets. Those given to family disciples are carefully selected." Lin Shiwei sighed softly.
"Why the sigh?"
"I don’t want the Dream Dance Fla Butterfly." Lin Shiwei shook her head.
Du Yu raised an eyebrow: "What, is contracting a Demon Pet mandatory?"
"Not really." Lin Shiwei said softly, "I plan to refuse the family’s arrangent.
But this might make seem ungrateful; the family genuinely puts a lot of effort into helping us."
After pondering for a mont, Du Yu spoke: "From the mont you didn’t want the Dream Dance Fla Butterfly, you couldn’t be its master anymore.
You need to sign a contract with the Fla Butterfly, and with such interconnected minds, the Fla Butterfly will sense your thoughts."
"I understand." Lin Shiwei nodded slightly, "To be responsible to both sides, I won’t contract the Dream Dance Fla Butterfly."
"Just explain it clearly to the family; after all, a Demon Pet will accompany you for life."
"Hmm."
Du Yu asked, "Then what kind of Demon Pet do you want?"
Lin Shiwei: "Ghost Skull, have you heard of it?"
Du Yu curled his lips: "Of course, I’ve seen it many tis on the battlefield."
Lin Shiwei beca interested, watching Du Yu’s expression: "Got a story?"
Du Yu grumbled, "Senior Brother Fu specifically told , people like can’t handle Ghost Skull, never in this lifeti."
"Hehe~" Lin Shiwei finally laughed aloud, looking at Du Yu’s profile, "True, you have a gentler nature."
"Exactly! You’re absolutely right!" Du Yu pursed his lips, "Do you know what Senior Brother Fu said about back then?"
"What?"
"He said I’m not assertive enough, called weak-willed..."
Lin Shiwei struggled to hold back her laughter, turning to look out the window.
"Why are you turning away?"
Lin Shiwei had managed her expression and turned to look at Du Yu, casually saying, "There was a stray dog on the street just now."
Du Yu looked at the girl with a pained expression: "Am I really so soft-hearted?"
Lin Shiwei glanced at Du Yu, then looked back at the road ahead, silently.
"Her Eyes Speak"
"Tsk." Du Yu scoffed, "Master Qing, do you know him?"
Lin Shiwei was sowhat taken aback, not knowing where Du Yu’s words ca from.
Du Yu smacked the steering wheel, "A week ago, under Mountain Fire Saber, everywhere were Master Qings wielding swords coming at !
One Master Qing ca, I killed one, two ca, I killed a pair!
Didn’t blink an eye, alright?"
Prince Du is super tough!
Lin Shiwei suddenly realized: "That’s why these days, you’ve been finding ways to make tea and cook for Master Qing."
Du Yu’s voice grew smaller: "It’s unrelated, it’s just being filial, can’t bear to see Master Qing go hungry..."
