Du Yu felt a bit embarrassed.

Due to the Shadow Gu Tower absorbing a truly formed Demon Soul, continuously refining it, Du Yu's body was filled with pure Demon Breath, even causing his body to stiffen, unable to control himself.

So...

Du Yu was carried out of the Bottomless Pit by his Immortal Master, wrapped in Flower Vines, and she also carried him into a taxi, returning to Xishu Courtyard.

No one knew how hard Du Yu endured on the way. He thought, Master Qing should really have thrown him into the trunk...

After an afternoon and a night's rest, Du Yu was much better. It wasn't that the Shadow Gu Tower gave him less, but Du Yu gradually adapted.

With this extraordinary experience, if he absorbs the shattered Demon Soul of a Heavenly-level Monster Beast next time, Du Yu is confident that he will never make any strange noises again!

At dawn, after washing up, Du Yu took Xiaobai and stepped out of the guest room, heading straight to the dining room.

Passing by the Firethorn Tree, Xiaobai exchanged glances with it for a while.

Facing the upgraded Xiaobai, the Firethorn Tree was quite curious, looking like it wanted to touch but didn't dare to touch the magical flowers on her antlers.

And Xiaobai... surprisingly didn't nip at the leaves of the Firethorn Tree, maybe because she leveled up, holding herself with elegance?

"Master Qing." Du Yu looked at the graceful figure doing yoga on the balcony and greeted politely.

Yang Qingqing, without turning her head, was balancing on one leg, worshipping Buddha in a strange pose: "You can walk now."

Du Yu looked embarrassed: "What do you want for breakfast, I will make it."

"Heat some milk, toast a few slices of bread."

"Okay." Du Yu responded softly and waved his hand, "Come, Xiaobai."

"Nai~"

Xiaobai held her Deer Head high, gracefully passing by the Firethorn Tree, a light mist lingering, chasing her departing figure.

The Firethorn Tree extended many branches, as if "observing" Xiaobai, also seeing her off from afar.

Slowly, the lush branches of the Firethorn Tree drooped to the ground, looking quite disappointed.

On the open balcony, Yang Qingqing seemed to sense something, turned back to observe, and happened to see this scene.

She knew all too well the temperament of her own Demonic Plant.

Xiaobai always nipped at the leaves of the Firethorn Tree, causing it no harm. To the Firethorn Tree, this was also considered a form of play.

The other Demonic Plants at home were all quiet and well-behaved, and no one played with the Firethorn Tree, but now Xiaobai, this unconventional playmate, ignored the Firethorn Tree...

Yang Qingqing put down her long leg and beckoned.

The Firethorn Tree understood the intention and swiftly reached out with its branches.

Yang Qingqing picked a leaf and gently rubbed it between her fingers: "All living things will grow. Their minds will gradually mature, and most creatures' temperaments will become stable.

You are about to ascend to Spirit Level, aren't you? In due time, you will change your form too."

The branches of the Firethorn Tree wrapped around Yang Qingqing's hand, and with her possession of the Demon Soul, she naturally understood the emotions it was conveying.

After a moment, she couldn't help but chuckle slightly and pinched off a leaf with her fingers.

"Tap."

The Firethorn Tree obviously didn't expect its owner to do this, and its branches trembled slightly.

"Your little partner is about to move out, living not far, just downstairs." Yang Qingqing rubbed the leaf, closing her eyes to deeply experience the feelings of the Demonic Plant.

After a while, the hand holding the leaf naturally hung down.

Summoned by the Spirit Contract, Xiaobai had already walked back through the living room, arriving behind her.

At this moment, Xiaobai was curiously watching her female owner.

As the leaf was brought to its mouth, Xiaobai hesitated for a moment but still took a bite.

Yang Qingqing raised her hand to stroke the lush branches of the Firethorn Tree: "If you want, I can send you downstairs as a housewarming gift for him."

"Shasha~sha~"

The Firethorn Tree suddenly began to sway, its dense leaves rustling.

Yang Qingqing's face also showed a faint smile, gently patting the tree's branches and leaves, similar to caressing a kitten or puppy.

In the dining room, Du Yu was busy feeding his Demon Pet.

The breakfast Master Qing ordered was simple, just heat a pot of milk, and wait for the toasted bread to pop out of the toaster.

However, on his own initiative, he also fried an egg for Master Qing.

The breakfast Du Yu prepared couldn't compare to the delicious breakfast made by Senior Brother Fu, but we have quantity!

He counted his appetite and fried 5 eggs in total!

Amid his busyness, Du Yu took the time to lay out various jams and also grabbed the mischievous Ghost Firefly Torch: "No stealing."

Goodness~

In a moment of inattention, he nearly let this guy burn up all the jam...

Little You Ying: T^T

"I'll let you eat dried fruit." Du Yu took out a few pieces of dried fruit from a parchment bag and tossed them into the torch's head.

In an instant, the pale green flame on the torch's head brightened, vigorously burning the fruit, and Little You Ying happily spun in circles.

Xiaoyan, perched on Du Yu's shoulder, with her keen sense of smell, clearly smelled something and turned her head away in disgust.

"Bear with it, Little You Ying is already at the Peak of Earth Level. Once it ascends to Heavenly Level and transforms into a Ghost Firefly Doll, the scent of the flames will become pleasant."

"Ying~" Xiaoyan dipped her little head, licking Du Yu's fingers and took the dried fruit from between his fingers.

Du Yu's idea was nice, he said it himself: the scent of the flames "could" become pleasant.

That is to say, Little You Ying could also choose not to make the scent pleasant and maintain the status quo.

Judging from Little You Ying's personality, even if it leveled up, Du Yu probably wouldn't have an easy time of it...

"Nai~"

Hearing the sound of Xiaobai behind him, Du Yu gently tossed the Firethorn Fruit Leather backward: "Catch."

"Nai!" Xiaobai leaped lightly, caught the Firethorn Fruit Leather in its mouth, and upon landing, it happily shook its head. The iridescent petals on its snow-white antlers shimmered, mesmerizing onlookers.

"Have you set the time with your teammates?" Yang Qingqing said casually, stepping into the dining room.

"Yes, eight o'clock. Shiwei is picking me up downstairs," Du Yu hurriedly poured the milk and brought the toasted bread to the table.

Yang Qingqing sat in a chair: "You are teammates, helping each other and growing together since your student days, it's quite a lovely thing."

Du Yu, holding a dinner knife, spread jam on the woman's bread and wisely kept quiet because he always felt that this conversation would take a turn?

Sure enough!

She continued, "But you are also my disciples. I will create corresponding study plans according to the actual situation.

Your strength is ahead of theirs, and barring any surprises, you will undoubtedly advance first.

Once you become a Demon Tamer, before they advance to Demon Tamers, your squad will temporarily separate to carry out different task contents. Be mentally prepared."

Du Yu nodded heavily: "I will follow Master Qing's arrangements in everything."

Yang Qingqing took one of the toasted bread slices and took a small bite.

The crisp and crunchy sound made Xiaoyan eager to try, the little one nuzzled Du Yu's cheek, seemingly wanting to try it too.

"This way, your two teammates will also be motivated to catch up with you." Yang Qingqing tore off a piece of the bread, dipped it in jam, and waved it at Xiaoyan.

Master Qing, how high your strategy is, achieving multiple goals in one move?

"Ying~" Xiaoyan happily jumped onto the dining table, stretched out a tender little tongue, and licked eagerly.

"Hurry and eat."

"Yes."

After a hearty meal, Du Yu washed the dishes and bid farewell to his Master.

How sharp was Yang Qingqing? She immediately spotted the bank card left by the sink.

She looked at Du Yu's departing back and said, "You should keep it, the downstairs is empty, it would be nice to buy some furniture."

Du Yu didn't stop walking, turned, and waved: "No need, no need, Master Qing, I'll add one at a time, it's going to be very fulfilling."

Seeing Du Yu's face full of anticipation, Yang Qingqing knew that this kid had really waited a long time for today.

While thinking, Du Yu was already out of sight.

At that moment, Yang Qingqing suddenly hoped that the Twin Trees could maintain their current state, at least hold on for a few more years.

After all, this child has just seen his dream come true and got his own little home, his happiness and joy in his eyes are almost overflowing.

If at this juncture, the whole world were invaded by the Otherworld Cold Tree...

Then such a story would be quite tragic.

As they say, things don't always go as planned. The increasing Cold Qi in the Twin Tree Realms across Great Xia is clearly a warning signal of an impending "sadness."

Du Yu's task this time is also to deal with the aftermath caused by exceeding Cold Qi.

"Ai..." Yang Qingqing sighed deeply, turning her head to look out the window.

Maybe, the world is really going to change.

If only Du Yu had awakened a year or two earlier.

Besides, would this group of extraordinarily talented Paper Crane Disciples become Great Xia's support at some future point?

Such heavenly phenomena, its special group born in this unique era, emerging just before the Bottomless Civilization blows the horn of total assault...

Supposedly, heaven does have arrangements.

Meanwhile, downstairs in the apartment building.

Du Yu, dressed in a Black Rock Tree Coat, looked at the two girls in the car, both wearing black coats, and his thoughts wandered a bit.

To be honest, these high-collar coats have the style of Xiao Organization's battle robes. If only they were embroidered with red clouds, they would look even more alike.

"Morning."

"Morning, Second Brother." Li Mengnan was sitting in the passenger seat, poking her head out of the window. Although greeting Du Yu, her beautiful eyes were fixed on Xiaobai.

Her eyes almost sparkled with little stars, how could there be such a beautiful creature in this world?

Demon Deer!

Just like Xiaoyan, it completely disrupts my state of mind!

"Morning," Du Yu replied with a smile, pulling open the rear door, and Xiaobai immediately jumped in.

He climbed into the back seat, leaned over, and placed the Demon Soldier Linked Beads into the trunk, where he noticed two swords.

"Shiwei is also using a sword?"

Li Mengnan, carefully observing Bai Yujing, whispered softer: "I have the Electric Soul Imprisonment skill, so I prepared one for it too."

Xiaobai tilted its head, also looking at Li Mengnan. Whether it had advanced a level or what, Xiaobai surprisingly didn't retreat or dodge.

Li Mengnan's words were a bit hesitant: "Can I..."

Du Yu patted Xiaobai's fur, trying to calm it, and nodded at Li Mengnan: "Go ahead and try."

The girl turned around, knelt on the seat, and slowly reached out to Xiaobai with one hand.

"Nai~" Xiaobai leaned forward with its deer head, sniffing the girl's fingertips as petals shimmered.

Seeing this, Du Yu couldn't help but raise an eyebrow slightly.

Lin Shiwei was also slightly startled, exchanging a glance with Du Yu.

Compared to Lin Shiwei, Du Yu naturally got to know Li Mengnan a little earlier. He felt her kindness firsthand, and he still benefits from her compassion and kindness.

Li Mengnan's fingers brushed past Xiaobai's cheek, filling her eyes with delight, her smile growing sweeter: "Hehe~ It's so well-behaved."

Seeing Li Mengnan's cute appearance, Du Yu couldn't help but nod secretly in his heart.

Perhaps, sometimes it's good to be a little innocent.

After all, blissful ignorance is its own blessing...
