I Have a Golden Crow-Chapter 677 - 478 Little Rich Lady’s Wrath
Du Yu gazed at the calm lake surface, silently standing still for quite a while before finally turning away.
Celestial Cyan Porcelain, you must cultivate to the Supreme level.
Whether I can converse with the Ancient Bull is all up to you.
Du Yu thought to himself, turning to return, but instead of heading directly south, he walked east.
Traversing the thick Begonia Forest, Du Yu finally came upon a clearing in the eastern part of the island.
In the center of the clearing stood a Nameless Tree quietly.
Du Yu stepped forward, looking at the black tree, "You've grown a lot taller."
The Nameless Tree Seedling was planted by Du Yu himself on December 8th.
In the blink of an eye, 21 days had passed, and the small sapling, which used to be 50 cm tall, had now grown to 1.5 meters in height.
The black trunk wasn't thick, let alone the extended black branches.
On the fine branches grew small green leaves, with some tender buds, looking quite delicate.
"Shasha~" The tender branches of the Nameless Tree swayed gently.
Du Yu extended his hand, pressing it against the black trunk, "Do you recognize me?"
Amid the rustling of the leaves, Du Yu faintly sensed a thought being transmitted.
However, the "signal" was very weak, "Master."
Perhaps still too weak, the Nameless Tree couldn't communicate normally with all things and could only convey its inner emotions through Du Yu's Demon Soul.
Du Yu smiled, "How is it? Living well here?"
Receiving an affirmative response, Du Yu patted the black trunk, "If you need anything, tell the Shatang Tree, it will take good care of you."
"Caw~"
"Caw~ Caw!" Just as Du Yu was concerned about the Nameless Tree, cries of crows came from high above.
Du Yu looked up, seeing two snow-white crows, crowned with beautiful feather crests, descending.
"Flap flap flap~"
The white crows stood one on each of Du Yu's shoulders.
For a moment, Du Yu didn't know which one was better to look at.
The two white crows hopped on Du Yu's shoulders and opened their beaks towards his ears:
"Caw!"
"Caw~!"
Du Yu: "..."
Good heavens~
They even had stereo sound?
The two white crows blinked their tiny eyes, extremely delighted at Du Yu's helpless look.
The white crows spread their wings and called again at Du Yu's ears, "Caw~~~"
Suddenly, Du Yu reached out, crossing his arms in front of him, capturing the two troublesome little creatures on his shoulders.
"Caw~" The white crows struggled incessantly but could not escape Du Yu's grasp.
In desperation, one crow pecked directly at Du Yu's wrist with its sharp beak.
"Ding!" A crisp sound rang out.
A mere Celestial-level Monster Beast couldn't peck through Du Yu's Demon Breath Battle Robe.
As the robe lightly trembled, the white crow's beak went numb~
"Haha." Looking at the two white crows shaking their heads, Du Yu couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Your little brains must be buzzing, huh?
"Poof~" The white crow in Du Yu's right hand suddenly burst open.
Reacting quickly, Du Yu hastily released his palm and took a step back.
Such a big person, Du Yu couldn't hold onto them.
Not to mention the whole girl, Du Yu couldn't even hold onto just her single long leg lifted up...
"Eh?" Li Mengnan let out a soft exclamation, landing on the ground with a thud.
Perhaps she trusted Du Yu too much, causing her to fall on her bottom?
Du Yu looked down at the girl with an innocent expression.
Li Mengnan looked up at Du Yu, a bit confused, "Why didn't you catch me?"
"My bad, my bad, I'll definitely catch you next time." Du Yu bent down and reached out, pulling the girl up.
"Hmph, that's more like it." Li Mengnan pouted and grumbled, "What are you doing?"
"Looking at the Nameless Tree." Du Yu gestured at the small tree ahead, "It has grown so much taller."
"Oh." Li Mengnan patted her backside, sizing up the Nameless Tree.
Obviously, all of Du Yu's Demonic Plants had distinct features.
The branches of the Firethorn Tree naturally drooped from top to bottom.
The branches of the Shatang Tree slanted upward towards the sky.
And the branches of the Nameless Tree fanned out like an umbrella.
Though they exhibited a slight downward tendency, overall, they spread flat out.
Watching thoughtfully, Li Mengnan couldn't help but remember the Nameless Tree in the Ten Thousand Plants Garden.
Its grand size, sprawling branches, could even turn an entire area into a "Dark Forest."
"Growing really fast," Li Mengnan mused, "It won't be long before your Sea Realm has a black sky."
Du Yu nodded in agreement.
Once the Nameless Tree shrouds the sky, the Dust Spirit Garden area beneath will probably turn pitch black, won't it?
He looked at the girl, "Tired from cultivation?"
But Li Mengnan casually beckoned.
"Flap flap flap~" The snow-white crow fluttered its wings, its small claws perching on the girl's hand.
She laughed, "Crow Call has leveled up, Celestial Level·Great Success Stage!"
"So soon?" Du Yu was a little surprised.
Speaking of which, the Violent Shadow Crow tribe is a species that doesn't grow big either.
Upon advancing from Earth Level to Celestial Level, their size increased a bit, but after reaching Celestial Level, their size hardly grew anymore.
Looking at them, the body length is merely 54, 55 cm?
"Hehe~ Silly Du Yu." Li Mengnan laughed charmingly, "I'm a Great Demon Tamer, after all.
Raising Little Demon Beasts is as easy as pie, besides, I advanced recently as well."
Du Yu rolled his eyes, it's because of you that Little Fen Yang got spoiled!
Because you always call me "silly Du Yu," Little Fen Yang started changing too.
Since then, if he doesn't add words like "silly," "dumb," or "weak" before my title, Little Fen Yang won't call me by my name.
Li Mengnan was full of joy, gently tapping the white crow's little head with her finger, "Crow Call is originally a Heterochromatic Demon Pet.
I've come to realize that its outstanding attributes are intelligence and growth."
Du Yu: "That's a good thing, reach Spirit Level soon, and you could break the wind as well."
"What a pity, we won't make it for this assessment." Li Mengnan retracted the Crow Call and said, "The exam's coming up, I should head out."
"Alright, I'll go ask Senior Brother Fu if there's anything else he needs."
"Senior Brother Fu's back?"
"Yeah, I was just helping him move..."
The two chatted idly as they took off and returned to Shatang Mansion.
Originally thought it was just a greeting, but unexpectedly, Senior Brother Fu really gave Du Yu a task—parking the car in the garage.
Du Yu took Senior Brother Fu's car keys and, with Li Mengnan, returned to a pitch-black, empty garage.
"Clatter, clatter..."
As the garage door opened, Du Yu suddenly realized a problem.
If anyone saw him and Li Mengnan coming out of a dark garage...
How embarrassing would that be?
Thankfully, in this cold winter season, no one was strolling in the courtyard.
Unexpectedly, there was an old man standing on the fourth-floor balcony of the opposite apartment building.
The old man watched the familiar young man and woman come out from his son's garage and helped park the car...
The old man was filled with confusion.
Where's my son?
The garage full of furniture?
Jianzhou definitely entered the garage with his little junior brother, then came out with his little junior sister?
Goodness, these young people today...
The Demon Tamers nowadays seem to be playing with something new?
"Thud." After finishing everything, Du Yu finally got into his own car and accepted the keys Li Mengnan handed over. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺
The girl sat in the passenger seat, watching Du Yu start the car: "Why're you dressed in gray again?"
Du Yu: ???
Your mom's a high school head teacher, is 'gray' describing colors?
Li Mengnan muttered, "That sweater was so nice."
Du Yu casually replied, "It's been washed."
"Oh, then I'll buy you a few more." Li Mengnan casually took out her phone.
Du Yu quickly said, "No need, no need, I'll buy it myself, I have money."
Li Mengnan pursed her lips, "With just that little money, better save it for the mortgage."
Du Yu: "..."
Li Mengnan tried to turn on her phone for a while, the screen flashed but didn't turn on.
She extended her slender forefinger and touched the charging port, instantly, a fine electrical current wove from her fingertip.
The phone that had been unresponsive finally lit up.
Isn't Electric Soul Imprisonment useful?
It's like carrying a power source with you~
Du Yu drove out of the residential courtyard, whispering, "Next month's income guarantees at least 700,000."
Li Mengnan froze for a second: "Huh?"
Du Yu shrugged his shoulders, "Little Fen Yang and Tai Sui have already booked spots in the top ten of the Spirit List, each earning 300,000.
Ghost Firefly can make the top 50 on the Spirit List, that's another 100,000.
And I have 25,000 in salary."
Li Mengnan: "So... is that enough to pay off the mortgage?"
Du Yu: "..."
Li Mengnan blinked her pretty eyes: "Is it enough?"
Shoot me right in the heart...
Du Yu almost cried: "Not enough, far from it."
"Haha~" Li Mengnan laughed lightly, "See, it's not really your money, is it?"
Du Yu sighed deeply,
Damn it, seems like I'll be working for Master Qing my whole life.
Come to think of it, if I throw a bunch of Yue Mountain Lion cubs at Master Qing, shouldn't she pay me instead?
Li Mengnan was charging her phone while filtering through heaps of messages, directly opening the online shopping app.
She said, "I'll buy you a few more pieces, remember to wear them."
"Ah." Du Yu responded, "Not too cartoonish."
Du Yu still remembers the "Q-version Lightning Cat slippers" in Prince Du's Mansion, was that something he should wear?
"Don't say anything, I'm buying, not you." The Little Rich Lady muttered, "The whole wardrobe is gray.
Looks unlucky."
Du Yu retorted, "Quite lucky actually, I still topped the finals last time."
Li Mengnan snorted, "You barely scraped by a pass. This time let's wear something festive, bright red and purple!"
Du Yu looked at Li Mengnan helplessly, "You want me to maximize the mockery value?"
"What're you afraid of?" Li Mengnan said confidently, waving her jade-like hand, "My second brother is invincible, just go for it!"
If you say so...
Then I won't argue with you~
Li Mengnan: "By the way, remember to charge your phone and reply to my messages."
Evidently, the girl knew very well how Du Yu was.
That's truly a case of being unable to hear calls or see messages.
Like a little deaf and blind.
Du Yu grinned, "Oh."
"Let me know as soon as you finish the exam."
Du Yu said helplessly, "No need to be in such a rush, right?"
Li Mengnan raised her brows, "I need to enter Mountain and Sea Bell for cultivation, Wind Chime Tree and Jia Rong Grass are waiting for me!"
"Alright, alright, I got it, I got it." Du Yu shifted the conversation, "Do well on your exam and show off."
Li Mengnan's anger flared as soon as she heard this: "Absolutely!
Dare to break up our Yan Organization, I will slaughter all directions!"
Saying this, she frantically tapped "add to shopping cart."
Who knows who her imaginary enemy is.
But those pair of pretty eyes seemed to almost shoot out flames: "This time, I will definitely take first place!!"
Du Yu weakly said, "Mengnan, no need to buy 20 pieces of the same style..."
"I have money, you wear them in rotation!"
"Alright... okay."
