I Have a Golden Crow

”Let’s go, Brother Dabao!” After getting the official permission from the book house, Du Yu waved goodbye to the soldier behind the bar with a smile.

Wang Dabao also smiled warmly in farewell, not minding Du Yu’s easy familiarity and even feeling a bit honored, given Du Yu’s impressive aura and track record.

Once they stepped out of the book house, Fu Jianzhou chuckled and said, ”No wonder Master Qing dotes on you so much. You really know how to sweet-talk.”

From Fu Jianzhou’s perspective, Master Qing’s attitude toward this junior brother was exceptionally favorable.

Not to mention, Master Qing offered his precious Acupoint Home to help Du Yu with pet surrogacy, an immense favor indeed!

Du Yu whispered, ”I’m just trying to build good relationships, I have a feeling I’ll be visiting here often in the future.”

Upon hearing this, Fu Jianzhou nodded.

Thinking back to Du Yu’s inquiries about house prices, he understood Du Yu’s intention. Given Du Yu’s unique status as a Spirit Master, he’s well-suited to take advantage of opportunities.

After hesitating for a moment, Fu Jianzhou still said, ”You should focus on your cultivation. As your power level increases, financial opportunities will naturally follow.”

Fu Jianzhou actually wanted to tell Du Yu that if he truly wanted to make money, there was no need to be confined within the Bottomless Pit.

The Demon Taming World has reached a stage of remarkable development, with flourishing industries, and society offers a variety of competitions with all sorts of rewards.

Even if Du Yu’s strength is not yet sufficient, the cleverness displayed by the Heterochromatic Little Fire Fox when it appears could surely earn some endorsements.

”Eat XX grain, mutate into a Heterochromatic Demon Pet!”

This slogan could bring in the bucks...

Fu Jianzhou refrained from saying so, fearing he might lead the lad astray.

Being under Master Qing means coming from a prestigious and orthodox background.

Careful cultivation leading to the peak of Great Xia Demon Taming is what’s promised, right?

If you were to enlist in the army, indulge in scientific research or archaeology, that would be understandable. But you’re gonna dive headlong into the entertainment industry waving my banner?

You might be facing a house cleaning...

Fu Jianzhou knows Master Qing’s character far too well.

If he dared to encourage Du Yu to participate in leagues or performance matches, Master Qing would probably tear him apart and feed him to the Evil Soul Dog in the Bottomless Pit.

”Crack.”

As the duo arrived at the heavy Stone Gate, the soldier stationed there pressed the button to open the gate below.

Instantly, a cold, eerie atmosphere seeped through the crack and poured outward.

The demon breath gathered on Du Yu’s forehead, while he gripped the Demon Soldier Linked Beads tightly in his left hand, holding the Ghost Firefly Torch with the other.

”Whimper!” Xiaoyan let out a soft whimper and leapt onto Du Yu’s shoulder.

The beautiful Heterochromatic Little Fire Fox caught the attention of the gatekeeping soldiers who couldn’t help but glance twice.

Du Yu led the way, stepping down the stairs, returning once again to the examination hall from a month ago.

Familiar corridors, familiar wisps of cold mist, and familiar eerie dimness.

”Senior brother, stay close to me, you can absorb the demon breath.” Du Yu spoke softly as he gazed around, his forehead headlamp darting randomly.

”Got it.” Fu Jianzhou was much more laid-back than Du Yu, aside from the headlamp and invisible headphones provided by the book house, he wore nothing but a black tracksuit and didn’t even bring any demon soldiers.

The cold mist hovering above was visibly dissipating at a remarkable speed, prompting Fu Jianzhou to marvel at the sight.

No doubt, an incredible Spirit Master!

The Bottomless Pit isn’t devoid of demon breath; quite the opposite, it’s rather dense here. It’s just mixed with a lot of cold qi, which makes people deeply wary and unwilling to refuel their energy here.

Du Yu: ”It’s so quiet here, huh?”

Fu Jianzhou: ”City Book House headquarters and culture bureau just held many rounds of activities here.”

”Oh, right.”

”Du Yu Du Yu~”

Du Yu hurriedly responded in his mind: ”What’s up, Little Fen Yang?”

”I felt the demon fire again~”

”Hmm.” Du Yu nodded quietly, feeling reassured!

Great!

A month has passed since returning to the South Suburbs Bottomless, yet the demon fire still lies below.

This likely indicates it’s unclaimed, continuously buried here, undiscovered by others!

Little Fen Yang’s cute voice carried a hint of desire: ”I wish to have it~”

Du Yu: ”Give me a bit more time, Little Fen Yang, given our current Spirit level, we probably can’t reach 500 meters deep yet.”

”Oh.”

”Whimper!” Xiaoyan suddenly gave a soft cry.

”Exactly, you blew up a bunch of people right around this corner last time.” Du Yu recalled, lighting up the corner with his torch.

Remembering that scene of the participants fallen all over, a smile crept onto his face.

Thinking back, it seemed like he could still smell the burnt aroma of roasted meat. Those contestants had it tough...

”Ghost Skull.” Fu Jianzhou patted Du Yu’s shoulder, gesturing to the distant left side.

Du Yu immediately turned his head, using the headlamp’s faint light to catch sight of five small, palm-sized skulls far down the corridor.

They formed a circle, resembling a unique necklace, suspended in mid-air, showing their backs to Du Yu...

After observing for a bit, Fu Jianzhou softly said, ”Ghost Skull in three forms, with wind, fire, and water attributes.”

Among those five strung-together tiny skulls, two skulls were ablaze with black flames, two were shrouded in mist, and one was plain, resembling bare white bones.

However, this seemingly ordinary skull was causing the surrounding flames and mist to swirl, clearly releasing waves of whirlwind.
