When Du Yu remembered he needed to move house, Master Qing had already gone upstairs to rest.
Du Yu thought and thought, but he didn't want to disturb her immediately; he decided to wait until dinner time to go up...
The master is so exhausted; she surely wouldn't want to cook. If she doesn't eat, what if she gets sick from hunger?
As her excellent disciple, of course, I will take good care of the master, I must cook seven or eight dishes for her tonight.
Du Yu thought secretly, habitually heading to the southeast guest room and entering the bathroom.
Even though there was no furniture in the house, the bathtub, water heater, and sink were still there. When Master Qing moved years ago, she didn't dismantle these things.
Prince Du essentially bought a furnished apartment, one where he could move in directly with his bags.
The only problem is, Du Yu doesn't have bags...
His toiletries are still upstairs, no towels or bath towels... Well, it's fine!
She's got authentic fox fur!
Using her tail as a towel to wipe my face is fine. I don't need to wipe my body; after all, it's my own home, and I can naturally air dry... oh, right!
I am in my own house, so why am I showering in the guest room?
Du Yu pondered with a troubled expression, washing away all the dust on his body.
When he picked up Xiaoyan's damp tail, he realized a serious issue!
He and Xiaoyan showered together; the "fox fur towel" is also wet!
Du Yu's heart stirred; should he call Bai Yujing in and use a deer skin towel?
"Ying?" Xiaoyan allowed her tail to be grabbed by Du Yu, tilting her head curiously at Prince Du.
Du Yu thought for a while and asked, "If I wring out your tail to dry it, will it hurt?"
In the end, Du Yu couldn't bear to wring his beloved pet's big tail.
Instead, under the demonstration of Prince Yan, master and pet dried themselves using Fire Demon Breath.
It was very comfortable~ warm all over.
Refreshed and calm, Du Yu finally planned to organize his house.
Four bedrooms in total, each one should be utilized, and a study needs to be left aside.
Although I don't need to do math problems anymore, the study can be a place to hang Merit Demon Soldiers~
Additionally, the precious Library Ring should be displayed, just thinking about it gives a sense of satisfaction!
As Du Yu was imagining the future, the Firethorn Tree rolled over with the phone, handing it to Du Yu.
"Thanks, Brother Tree." Du Yu took the phone, his action suddenly paused, "Right, Master Qing gave you to me as a gift, so I am your owner?"
The Firethorn Branch swayed up and down in a nodding motion.
With joy on his face, Du Yu said: "Can I order you not to poke my kidney anymore in the future?"
The Firethorn Branch swayed left and right in a shaking motion.
What kind of owner am I?
Still have to suffer bullying from my own demonic plant every day...
Du Yu thought angrily, glanced at the phone, and immediately answered: "Aunt Su?"
On the other end, Su Ming'an's gentle voice came: "Hmm, Xiaoyu, it's been a long time."
Du Yu's expression was odd, the nickname was new, maybe Aunt Su felt it sounded more affectionate.
He didn't make a fuss and explained: "Aunt Su, we've been on missions."
"I know, Weiwei just returned and told me about your task journey."
Su Ming'an: "You've taken good care of her."
"No, no, we're teammates, we take care of each other." Du Yu quickly said.
"Hehe." Su Ming'an chuckled softly, "I heard you moved into a new house?"
"Yes, how did Aunt Su know?"
Su Ming'an: "I just talked to Master Qing, and learned about your recent situation. I specifically asked about the Demon Pet, and Master Qing thinks you're ready."
Upon hearing this, Du Yu was a bit hesitant, unsure: "Am I ready?"
"Hmm?" Su Ming'an was puzzled, "Why lack confidence?"
Du Yu turned his head, observing Xiaobai and Xiaoyan chasing and playing in the big living room, with Little You Ying joyfully trailing behind, looking for the two elder sisters to play.
Unfortunately, Sister Fox and Sister Lu in the large living room were soaring and swooping, even though Little You Ying could fly, she couldn't catch up.
Honestly, if this trend continues, the neighbors on the 15th floor should come knocking soon...
Such a loving scene, Du Yu admired for a while, lightly said: "Maybe I'm ready."
The relationships among the Demon Pets have already turned around.
Especially during the apocalyptic journey, when Du Yu was short of Demon Breath and physically weak, the Demon Pets worked together to help him overcome difficulties.
Major disasters often lead to two outcomes: either causing the team to break apart or fostering unity.
And this small team, with Du Yu at the center, its cohesion is quite astonishing!
Su Ming'an: "Yes, be more confident. You only lacked experience before; with a change in your nurturing method, everything will be fine. Trust your abilities."
"Thank you, Aunt Su."
"Given that, you shouldn't refuse Auntie's kindness." As she spoke, Su Ming'an laughed first, "I will be angry."
Du Yu's heart stirred: "Aunt Su, did you find a Demon Pet for me?"
"To be accurate, it's an opportunity to contract a Demon Pet."
"Oh?" Upon hearing, Du Yu's thoughts began to spread,
Directly giving you a Demon Pet versus offering you a contract opportunity, there's an essential difference!
Take Du Yu, for example; he once took Lin Shiwei to find the Dust Spirit Deer clan. He didn't give Little Shiwei an Immortal Deer but offered her an "interview" opportunity.
During the interview, the Demon Beast holds absolute initiative.
And generally, normal Demon Pets don't require Demon Tamers to interview.
You contract them directly and nurture them well.
Take Hu Xiaoyan and Little You Ying, for example.
If any problems arise during growth and the Demon Pet abandons its owner, that's a different matter.
But with beings like the Dust Spirit Deer, people cannot form a contract first and develop emotions later.
Du Yu's heart was filled with anticipation!
An interview implies that this Demon Pet is definitely not of Mortal Grade!
Su Ming'an: "I've already discussed with Master Qing, and she thinks you should seize this opportunity, so she specially gave you leave."
Du Yu was full of curiosity: "Aunt Su, can you reveal what kind of Demon Pet it is?"
Su Ming'an: "It is distributed in the southwest, unique to Great Xia. Can you guess?"
Du Yu's mouth formed an O shape, his voice trembling slightly: "Panda... uh, Chi Bear?"
Located in the southwest, exclusive to Great Xia!
What else could be round and rolling?
Life is becoming more promising...
Speaking of which, I already have a fox and a deer, and a mysterious Little Golden Crow.
In the previous life, casually showing any of them would have been impressive.
"I've got you a ticket to the Bamboo Grove Realm and a contract ticket too. Tomorrow, I'll have Weiwei send them over to you." Nᴇw novel chapters are publɪshed on novel⟡fire.net
The Chi Bear Race even requires a "contract ticket" to form a contract, which shows how precious and rare they are!
For a moment, Du Yu felt the allure of a planned economy...
Without ration tickets, no matter how much you offer, we won't sell it to you!
In this abundantly resourceful era, it's testamentary that the Chi Bear Race requires tickets for a contract.
Du Yu was filled with gratitude: "Thank you, Aunt Su, you must have put in a lot of effort..."
Before he could finish, Su Ming'an interrupted with a smile: "It must be on par with the Dust Spirit Deer.
Moreover, it's not just my efforts; your identity is also a key factor in passing the review."
"Passing review?" Du Yu was a bit puzzled.
"The contract ticket for Bamboo Grove isn't given out freely. The one I've secured is exclusively for you."
Su Ming'an sighed softly: "Your talent and potential, the achievements you've gained, including your character and merits.
Your entire journey's performance collectively allowed Bamboo Grove Realm to give you the green light."
Su Ming'an continued: "There are five continents in the world, but the Chi Bear Race only survives on our land; it is one of Great Xia's cultural symbols.
Anyone qualified to contract a Chi Bear represents the expectations the entire nation has for that person.
If you are truly fortunate to contract a Chi Bear, it would be the pride of our entire Ancient Pine Tower City."
Du Yu was silent for a moment, then solemnly spoke: "Rest assured, Aunt Su, I will cherish this opportunity."
Su Ming'an's voice became even more gentle: "This world is beautiful."
The same words he had heard not long ago.
Su Ming'an: "There are still many places you haven't been to, and many stories waiting for you to experience.
The path of Demon Taming is indeed arduous, with various factors trying to disturb your thoughts, attempting to delay your progress.
But as long as you keep moving forward, you'll encounter interesting things."
Su Ming'an: "Don't be confused; there's still a long way to go."
Du Yu nodded gently: "Thank you for your concern, Aunt Su, my mindset is already well-adjusted."
"Good, I hope you have fun in Bamboo Grove."
Listening to the busy signal from the phone receiver, he slowly put down the phone.
Staring blankly at the phone screen for a while, Du Yu couldn't help but smile wryly.
What a Great Breeder!
Breeding has come to me...
In just a few words, everything was laid out clearly!
That aside, just how stubborn was Little Shiwei before? With a mother constantly PUAing at home, she managed to get into a sanatorium?
The road is always one foot higher, and the demon is always one foot taller...
"Heh." Du Yu exhaled deeply.
This world truly is beautiful, at least the people around him are wonderful.
Perhaps Aunt Su is the one "breeding" him, but clearly, it was under Master Qing's direction.
Du Yu, who has lived two lives, has never been cared for in such a meticulous manner.
Perhaps it is due to different identities, and for Demon Tamers, one must especially focus on their mind during cultivation.
If hesitated, one might never advance even a bit further in life.
Bai Yujing suddenly stopped, sought the owner's voice, and looked curiously: "Nai?"
Xiaoyan finally caught up with Bai Yujing, leaped lightly onto her back, and wrapped a tail around the deer's neck.
Similarly, Little You Ying, the naughty one, also got her wish and finally caught up with the two sister Fox Deer.
She was wrapped by Xiaoyan's other long tail around the torch handle, trying to stay farther away.
Apparently, Prince Yan also somewhat disliked Little You Ying's smell?
Seeing such a harmonious and loving scene with the Demon Pets, Du Yu waved his hand: "Let's go upstairs for a meal... uh, cook for Master Qing!"
