I Have a Golden Crow-Chapter 683 - 483 mere demons

Three days later, a business car sped down the highway.

Inside the car sat the Shaohai group of five.

Ancient Pine Tower is only 300 to 400 kilometers away from Great Xia Capital City, and since everyone was carrying a pile of things, driving was naturally more convenient.

Lin Shihao was driving, while his goddess-like girlfriend sat in the passenger seat.

Du Yu and Lin Shiwei were sitting in the middle row, and Liu Junxing was in the backseat, sitting together with a bunch of Demon Soldiers...

The few people in the car were constantly chatting leisurely, speculating on possible exam formats, and planning the tactics for their group of five.

Only Du Yu sat quietly, staring out the window, lost in thought.

Three days had passed, yet Du Yu still occasionally thought of the Sorrow Seabird.

The ancient records barely mentioned it, yet it allowed Du Yu's imagination to run wild.

That tragic and sorrowful story indeed had a strong aftereffect.

Sea of Sorrow Race, Wind Demonic Beast.

On the bird's head, there were beautiful patterns, and a long feather standing on their forehead, like a soft white ribbon.

It had a white beak, red claws, and blue-grey plumage.

The book said, the Sea of Sorrow Race was graceful and elegant, with a graceful figure.

However, their story was far from beautiful.

The reason they were called "Sea of Sorrow" is that whenever they saw the sea, they would always cry out in sorrow.

Their soft sobbing was heart-wrenching, making those who heard it grieve, and those who saw it tear up.

The book asked: Bird, bird, why do you weep?

The bird mourned: Mother said, the waves swallowed our home, scattering my tribe.

Thus, the Sea of Sorrow Race often carried wooden branches and stones to fill the sea.

Within the tribe, there was a vow that passed down generations to fight against the sea.

Facts proved, the Sea of Sorrow Race lost.

Completely.

Now, the waves still persist, yet the Sea of Sorrow Race is nowhere to be seen.

Perhaps that last tribe member also perished on the road of resistance.

Whether the bird's image or their actions, all matched exactly with the description of the Shatang Tree.

The difference was, the birds recorded in the book were located in the southern coastal region of Yunnan Province, not in the Celestial Province to the north.

And the Sorrow Seabird, which often perches on the Shatang Tree, carrying wood and stones to fill rivers...

Perhaps it got lost, or instinct drove it away from the dangerous seaside, seeking to breed and survive inland?

But the spirit belief of the species that continued on was unwilling to let it go.

As a result, there was no sea in the Celestial Province, so it filled rivers instead.

What truly made Du Yu feel the strong aftereffect was this story's great similarity to the myths of the former world.

Was it a coincidence?

Since ancient times, many creatures have been swallowed by the waves.

On this land rich with intelligent Beast Race, no reaction of a race to the sea would be excessive.

Perhaps it truly is a coincidence... yes, let's hope so.

"Du Yu." Beside him, Lin Shiwei softly called.

"Hmm?" Du Yu came back to his senses and looked at the girl.

"Still thinking about that story?" Lin Shiwei asked with concern, sighing quietly in her heart.

She always felt, Du Yu was too soft-hearted, easily disturbed by such ancient stories.

On this Demon Taming Continent, there were countless touching and tragic stories.

If one were to grieve for them, there would simply be no end.

The girl did not know, what truly stirred Du Yu's thoughts was the resemblance of this story with mythologies from the past world.

If he could come here, is it possible that someone else might have gone to Du Yu's previous world, to the so-called Ancient Times?

What the descendants saw might very well be a replicated story from the Demon Taming World?

If that's truly the case, then... is there a chance to return to the original world?

Return?

There doesn't seem to be much of a reason.

There wasn't much to long for in the previous world.

Lin Shiwei: "If you'd like, after this exam, we can go visit Yunnan."

Saying this, the girl's voice grew softer, her heart filled with peculiar feelings.

Because Du Yu was staring blankly at Lin Shiwei...

Indeed, there's nothing to long for.

In this life, he had people he was intimately connected with, several cute Demon Pets, and his own home.

Whether it was a coincidence or not, who cares about love?!

It doesn't matter anymore.

Du Yu grinned, turning his head to look out the window.

Lin Shiwei slightly leaned her body, resting her shoulder against Du Yu's shoulder, and whispered, "After the exam, I'll accompany you to Yunnan."

"Alright, just treat it as a trip." Du Yu casually responded.

At noon, the vehicle entered the Great Xia Capital City.

After entering the city, they spent another hour stuck in traffic before finally arriving at the hotel designated by the bookstore.

As soon as they entered the hotel lobby, in the resting area on the right, a man playing on his phone looked up.

And his intense gaze was not hidden in the slightest, so much so that almost immediately, the Shaohai group of five all looked over.

"You finally made it, huh?" The man appeared to be in his thirties with a round face, not very tall, probably just over 170 cm.

Although his stature wasn't tall or imposing, his presence was very strong!

Du Yu could almost see, the man's aura rising up to the ceiling...

His ordinary attire could not conceal his warrior spirit, and the work badge hanging in front of him also declared his identity.

Great Xia Bookstore: Zhu Weizheng.

Lin Shihao and Liu Juncai exchanged a glance and walked directly forward.

Zhu Weizheng, holding a bunch of work badges, briskly strode over, "Out of the eight regions, you're the last to arrive, you really kept me waiting?"

"Heh heh." Lin Shihao laughed, "Traffic jam on the road, took a bit longer."

Liu Juncai, with a smile on his face, neither humble nor arrogant, said, "Weren't we supposed to arrive before 2 PM?"
