"Come in." Behind the door came the voice of Master Qing.

"Go quickly." Fu Jianzhou stopped telling stories and urged him urgently. It was evident that he had great respect for the master.

Or... could it be that Senior Brother Fu had already been trained by Master Qing?

Du Yu nodded to Senior Brother Fu as a gesture and pushed open the door with one hand. In his sight, Master Qing had a smile on her face, pinching a small piece of cake with her fingers, while the Little Immortal Deer was eagerly eating, poking its head around.

Wow, each one has more of an immortal vibe than the last!

Accentuated by the ethereal Dust Spirit Deer, the elegant woman in the light green dress seemed even more like an Immortal from a myth.

Master Qing, why don't you make a contract with me too!

I can eat cakes really well...

"Nai?" The Little Immortal Deer, sensing someone approaching, quickly turned its head to look, and seeing it was Du Yu, it leapt towards him.

Yes, the Little Immortal Deer didn't walk normally; it hopped around instead.

This lively and joyful demeanor made everyone watching feel much more at ease.

"Hehe." Du Yu hurriedly squatted down and embraced the snow-white Little Immortal Deer.

The Dust Spirit Deer seemed to have completed the contract with Master Qing, getting stronger, more agile, and the mist surrounding it was slightly denser than before.

Yang Qingqing pulled out a tissue and wiped her fingers: "I've reached an agreement with this child; it has accepted our way of nurturing."

"Mhm mhm." Du Yu sat down on the carpet, nodding repeatedly, "Thank you, Master Qing."

Yang Qingqing watched as her apprentice and the Little Immortal Deer played affectionately together, her voice growing ever softer: "This little one, its potential growth value should be classified as extremely high."

Du Yu paused his movements and looked up at the woman on the sofa: "Extremely high?"

Yang Qingqing nodded: "What does your Demon Pet Atlas say?"

Ecstasy filled Du Yu's heart: "The atlas doesn't give precise info; the growth potential value is marked as high~extremely high. Haha!"

As he spoke, Du Yu couldn't help but laugh aloud.

This is just too wonderful!

A Demon Pet with such potential value, if sold, could easily fetch over 2000 points, right?

That being said, you can't sell anything for a good price at the official Demon Pet Center.

But if you brought it to the market, like an auction house, relying on the unique traits and rarity of the Dust Spirit Deer, as well as its ability to produce Dust Spirit Beads, wouldn't the price skyrocket to an astronomical level?

Is this what it feels like to make millions in a day?

When a Demon Tamer is broke, they're really broke, but earning is really earning...

Yang Qingqing crossed her legs and smiled at Du Yu: "It's still too young, so I'll take it back later and help it stabilize."

"Alright, Master Qing." Du Yu had no objections, of course.

"I've reported to the Demon Pet Center here, guaranteeing under my name that this is your Demon Pet, with me temporarily contracted for caretaking. In the future, you won't sell it to other Demon Tamers."

Du Yu: "Of course!"

"Give it a name."

"Uh..." Du Yu scratched his head, momentarily stuck, while Yang Qingqing's bright eyes seemed expectant for the name Du Yu would suggest.

After all, the name "Fu Jianzhou" was a bit flashier than the former "Fu Jianzhou."

Honestly, if Du Yu dared to say the source of the name "Jianzhou," and recite that line of poetry, it wouldn't just be about being "flashier."

Yang Qingqing didn't rush, just quietly waited for Du Yu.

Meanwhile, Du Yu ran his fingers through the mist surrounding the Dust Spirit Deer, drawing faint white lines.

This ethereal Immortal Mist really brought three words to Du Yu's mind: Bai Yujing.

The Dust Spirit Deer is like a walking Immortal Realm, isn't it?

Those powerful Demon Beasts with celestial abilities can open their own Demon Spirit Realms and establish a civilization.

In the future, when the Dust Spirit Deer becomes a God or a Saint, we could open our own Demon Spirit Realm called "Bai Yujing"!

Great, this goal is very grand!

The Immortal Shi once said: "In the heavens, there is Bai Yujing, with twelve towers and five cities. An Immortal touched my head, and I gained longevity."

This really feels amazing!

"Nai~" The Little Immortal Deer nestled in Du Yu's arms for a while, then grabbed his sleeve with its mouth, tugging it.

"Eh?" Du Yu was puzzled; she was still too small, of course, couldn't tug Du Yu, so he had to kneel and, under the Little Immortal Deer's tug, move his knees and crawl to the coffee table.

The Little Immortal Deer looked at the remaining small piece of cake on the coffee table but didn't eat it; instead, it turned its head to look at Du Yu: "Nai~"

Du Yu's expression became unusual. The cake was right in front of its mouth, yet it won't eat; it insists I feed it?

It's quite particular, doesn't fuss about being fed by Master Qing, but must be by me!

Having figured it out, Du Yu felt wonderful in his heart too. He pinched off a small piece of cake and brought it to the Dust Spirit Deer's mouth.

"Nai~" The Dust Spirit Deer happily jumped in place, biting onto Du Yu's finger.

"Hehe." Yang Qingqing watched this scene with a smile, also unable to resist the charm of this beautiful and lively little creature. She couldn't help but lean down to stroke the snow-white Little Immortal Deer's head.

Du Yu blinked as he watched the Immortal Master gently caress the deer's head, feeling as if it was destined by the heavens.

"Great!" Du Yu's heart was set. He looked at the Dust Spirit Deer with determination. "From now on, I'll call you Xiaobai!"

The smile on Yang Qingqing's face stiffened slightly.

"Nai?" The Little Immortal Deer blinked, with a bit of cream on its mouth, tilting its head and curiously looking at Du Yu.

The Dust Spirit Deer was contracted with Yang Qingqing, naturally sensing her mood. However, Master Qing's mood... didn't seem very pleasant?

"Is that the name you thought of?" Yang Qingqing looked at Du Yu both amused and annoyed, thinking Xiaobai was a bit too ordinary.

But Du Yu was full of confidence: "Sounds nice."

Yang Qingqing: "..."

"By the way, Master Qing," Du Yu seemed to recall something and looked up at his Immortal Master, "what about the Divine Tree helping me change profession?"

"Hm." Yang Qingqing nodded lightly and said, "I don't have a better explanation either. It is indeed somewhat contradictory."

After all, the Divine Tree's withering was meant to erase the profession of the Spirit Master for humans.

But everyone who succeeded in climbing the tower, everyone who received spiritual energy from the Shadow Gu Tower, was helped by the Divine Tree under the Twin Trees across Great Xia, undergoing an ancient ritual.

Du Yu speculated: "Could our judgement be wrong? The Divine Tree might not want to erase the Spirit Master profession?"

Yang Qingqing rested her elbow on the sofa armrest, holding her cheek as she looked at the boy feeding the deer, "That period of history is indeed chaotic, but that's the mainstream opinion of historians, and there are indeed historical records to support it.

Maybe today, hundreds of years later, the Divine Tree has seen humans and Demon Beasts find a way to coexist, and the world's structure has relatively stabilized, so it has shown great mercy."

Yang Qingqing was only speculating, unable to be sure. Since the first year, the whole world's history has been a mess, with the abrupt rise of Demon Spirit Civilization and the rampant behavior of Demon Beasts, causing too many gaps in the planet's history.

Du Yu thought and thought again, then spoke: "Master Qing, did the others who received spiritual energy from the Shadow Gu Tower communicate with the Divine Tree when starting the Spirit Taming profession?"

"Hm?" Yang Qingqing's heart stirred, "Did you communicate with the Divine Tree?"

"Yes." Du Yu organized his words, "The Divine Tree asked me two questions: Will the Fire Spiritual Qi inside me go out? If it doesn't, can it break the chains?"

"Chains?"

Du Yu looked up at Master Qing: "That's roughly the meaning. Do you know what the Divine Tree means?"

Yang Qingqing frowned, not expecting such information to appear: "Are chains referring to your body's attributes or talent potential?"

Chains naturally imply constraint.

In Yang Qingqing's mind, Du Yu has no constraints; he is growing rapidly, with astonishing talent. If it's about the physical aspect, perhaps a single attribute could be considered a constraint?

Breaking the chains, changing from Pure Fire to an All-Elemental Demon Tamer?

There is no precedent for this in history.

Du Yu was also puzzled: "Maybe it's referring to my power. Every time I break through, it's considered breaking the con..."

Before he finished speaking, Du Yu's voice abruptly stopped.

Yang Qingqing: "What's wrong?"

Du Yu slightly opened his mouth, suddenly realizing something: "When the Divine Tree mentioned spiritual energy, it was very clear, referring to the Fire Spiritual Qi inside me.

But when it talked about breaking the chains, it wasn't clear whether it was the chains on me or on someone else."

Yang Qingqing uncrossed her legs, leaning forward with a serious expression: "No nominative reference."

Du Yu stupidly looked up: "Could it be the chains on the Divine Tree itself? The Divine Tree wants to make me... whoa! Grass, grass is a plant, withering and flourishing in a year."

Yang Qingqing: "..."

Du Yu couldn't care about much else and hurriedly lowered his voice: "The Divine Tree wants me to quickly grow? And then absorb me, like what we saw in the Shadow Gu Tower, turning from withered to flourishing?"

Yang Qingqing shook her head, "What you saw in the tower was the work of those with intentions using Twin Tree Seedlings, using the Spirit Master as fertilizer.

The Twin Tree is a Guardian, especially the one in this Otherworld that has stood for hundreds of years and has long grown up; it would not go against its principles."

Yang Qingqing continued: "But there's one thing you said right, it might really be the lock on the Divine Tree itself."

Du Yu: "Huh?"

At this moment, Yang Qingqing's heart was a bit shaken.

Maybe the historians are wrong, maybe for thousands of years, everyone has been kept in the dark.

Was the Divine Tree really not withering on its own?

As proven, the Divine Tree is still willing to help humans start the Spirit Taming profession!

Could it be that the Divine Tree was constrained by some chains, causing it to wither for a millennium?

The more she thought, the more shaken Yang Qingqing's heart became. If everything were true, the information Du Yu provided might overturn the entire world's understanding, even altering the world's cultural history.

Similarly, this clue might lead to a storyline buried for hundreds of years...
