Chapter 1450 - 932: Ecstatic Delight

After breakfast, the two of them and the fox arrived at the Bamboo Grove.

At that moment, outside the Red Bamboo Courtyard, it was full of black and white dumplings.

They were chubby and fluffy, just like plush toys on a shelf, neatly arranged from large to small.

They were incredibly adorably silly~

Seeing the master coming, the leader Hongye raised the red Bamboo Stick high: "Ying!"

In no time, hundreds of Chi Bear Race members responded in unison, yammering:

"Ying~"

"Ying!!"

Hu Xiaoyan tilted her head, looking at this group of yammering creatures, finding them both fierce and cute, a scene quite amusing~

Of course, the cutest one had to be their own Little Tai Sui.

Xiaoyan was surprised that whatever she thought, it would appear!

Du Yu grazed his hand across his front, sending the concentrated Demon Breath to the side.

Little Tai Sui quickly took shape, gazing through the open courtyard door at the clan members outside.

"Ying~" Xiaoyan also joined the yammering group, lightly leaping onto Little Tai Sui’s head.

"Ying?" Little Tai Sui slightly looked up, blinking its shiny black eyes.

Xiaoyan’s fox eyes laughed, squatting on Tai Sui’s head, looking down at Xiongxiong.

She even extended a fiery red fox tail, poking Little Tai Sui’s nose with its golden tip.

Little Tai Sui immediately sneezed: "Achoo!"

Hu Xiaoyan: "Hehe~"

Little Tai Sui wasn’t annoyed but showed a foolish grin: "Ying!"

Sister Xiaoyan, hello!

The smile in Xiaoyan’s eyes deepened, responding softly: "Ying."

Indeed, my Little Tai Sui is the cutest.

She then extended two more fox tails, one on each side, affectionately rubbing Little Tai Sui’s cheeks.

Du Yu originally intended to announce the good news with Little Tai Sui, but seeing this, he didn’t disturb the fox and the bear.

Du Yu’s Demon Pet numbers were quite a few, and the relationships between them varied in closeness.

Among them, the fox, the bear, and the Ghost Firefly formed a small group.

They grew up together from a young age and shared a deep bond.

Back when Du Yu was exploiting the bookstore and constantly topping the lists, Xiaoyan took great care of Tai Sui and Ghost Firefly.

Du Yu stepped out of the courtyard and said to Hongye, "Tell your clan members, to welcome everyone to the Mountain Realm, I’ve prepared a gift for you all."

Hongye blinked her eyes: "Ying?"

Du Yu smiled: "Tai Sui Wood Bamboo."

Hongye’s eyes lit up, filled with great joy.

She immediately turned around and started yammering.

With the announcement of Hongye’s Race Leader, hundreds of Chi Bears burst into cheers, rolling around with joy, yammering all over.

It was dazzling, an overwhelming noise pouring into the ears!

Du Yu felt his head buzzing~

"Ying!" Hongye’s loud yell finally brought some order to the chaotic scene.

Then, a Demon Soul enveloped Du Yu’s body: "Master, counting me in, a total of 105 Chi Bears have come to follow the master.

Five tribes of Wind, Fire, Thunder, Water, Earth, each with 20 Chi Bears, and each is led by an Emperor Level Chi Bear Clan Leader."

Du Yu looked at the hundred Chi Bears and nodded in satisfaction.

These Chi Bears varied in size, age, and strength, with a fairly balanced distribution.

Clearly, this was an ambitious new tribe aiming to grow and expand.

Hongye continued, "Every clan leader has brought Tai Sui Bamboo of their own attribute."

In other words, there are five Holy Treasure·Tai Sui Bamboos?

"Good!" Du Yu nodded in satisfaction.

Elder Yinsuo is indeed sincere and reliable in handling matters~

Hongye looked down at Du Yu, her eyes filled with intense joy: "From now on, we will serve the Master and follow the Master."

"Hehe." Du Yu chuckled.

From now on?

Weren’t you already mine?

Since Hongye’s Demon Soul enveloped Du Yu, she sensed Du Yu’s thoughts.

For a moment, Hongye felt overjoyed!

When they first met, Du Yu had set the rule: the two were only in a "training school" and "student" relationship.

You study and gain skills here, and can leave after graduation, I don’t own you.

Initially, Hongye thought the same, grateful that Du Yu didn’t force her and later received care from Du Yu and the Burning Sun Golden Crow.

But during that process, Hongye completely fell for this gentle and kind Demon Tamer of the Human Race.

Though she was supposed to be a student, she secretly called Du Yu her master.

Later, Hongye stayed in Bamboo Grove for the sake of her homeland, making every effort for the development and continuation of the Chi Bear Race.

Unexpectedly, Du Yu first retrieved the long-lost Tai Sui Thunder Bamboo, bringing joy to Bamboo Grove.

Later, he even helped the Chi Bear Race retrieve the Tai Sui Wood Bamboo that they had longed for!

This act completely resolved the centuries-old predicament of the Chi Bear Race!

Du Yu allowed the Chi Bear Race to become saints, to make bamboo wood, and to exuberantly develop and prosper!

From that moment, Hongye’s heart had already drifted away.

Her dreams and obsessions were all fulfilled by Du Yu, and since then, she only wanted to follow this Demon Tamer of the Human Race.

In her memory, Du Yu was still that gentle young man of the Human Race.

But opportunities are fleeting.

Du Yu’s eyes remained as bright as ever, but he was no longer the weak young man.

He had become terrifyingly strong, and his demon pets wielded immense power.

As powerful as Hongye was, a sense of inferiority emerged, along with a hint of powerlessness.

What remained in her heart was only self-reproach and loneliness.

Hongye knew that the warm Acupoint Home, she probably no longer had the chance to enter it.

The former warmth and beauty could only stay in past memories.

At some point, Hongye had stopped being greedy and didn’t dare to hope for a contract anymore.

As long as...

As long as she could stay by his side, that would be good enough.

With the outbreak of war between the two realms, Hongye became a member of the Mountain Army. As if the heavens showed mercy, opening a path for her.

She could now follow Du Yu!

Living in a world ruled by him, becoming his subordinate, becoming his... Demon Pet.

Even without a contract, it was enough.

However, with the war’s end, she had to lead the warriors out of the Mountain Realm, returning to Bamboo Grove.

Hongye knew well, from now on, it would be difficult for her to see Du Yu again.

Great Xia Divine General was not just a title.

The word "God" within also perfectly encapsulated Du Yu.

The young human boy who once lay in her arms, softly humming and singing "Bamboo Leaf Flying", would only grow more distant from her.

She could only inquire about him through the staff at Bamboo Grove, hearing how he was doing, whether he was well.

Perhaps one day, she might not resist taking out the phone given to her by Du Yu and make a call.

Would he come?

Yes, he would. He was so gentle, he would surely come.

But what then?

Will there be a second time?

Perhaps not, after all, she shouldn’t disturb him again.

In the past half month, the lonely Hongye stood among the bamboo forest of the Mountain Realm, thinking about many things.

She had not expected that after escorting the warriors of her clan back home, Elder Yinsuo, representing the Chi Bear Race, would assign her a new task.

Return to the Mountain Realm! Establish the Chi Bear Tribe!

Hongye was overjoyed, almost to the point of tears.

This morning, she led her clansmen to stand outside the Red Bamboo Courtyard, waiting for that familiar figure.

He came indeed.

Bringing with him another Divine General, a tremendously powerful Beautiful Demon Fox, and the unwittingly fortunate Little Tai Sui.

He was still as gentle as ever.

In private, he had already procured a Tai Sui Wood Bamboo for the Chi Bears.

He was still as gentle as ever, he said: You have belonged to me for a long time...

"Shasha~"

A breeze swept through the bamboo forest, bringing with it a pleasant rustling sound.

Hongye suddenly awakened, realizing that the Red Bamboo Courtyard, both inside and out, had fallen into silence.

Her expression froze, as she clearly sensed something.

Slowly, Hongye turned her head and saw those bright eyes from her memories.

Du Yu smiled, placing one hand on Hongye’s furry belly: "Someone always reminds me not to use the contract to ponder.

You, though, cover me with a Demon Soul, pondering thoughts?"

"Ying~" Hongye blushed immensely, lowering her head.

If her cheeks weren’t so furry, they might have turned red enough to drip blood.

"Hehe." Du Yu looked up, gazing at the lowered head and eyes of Hongye.

The dignified Demon Emperor·Peak Stage Chi Bear, the leader of the new tribe, at that moment, looked like a child who had done something wrong.

"So humble?" Du Yu suppressed his complex emotions, jokingly said.

"Ying~" Hongye buried her bear face, softly responding.

Du Yu reached out, rubbing that furry cheek: "My Acupoint Home is full, once Ghost Firefly leaves, I will contract you."

"Ying." Hongye shook her head.

"What now?" Du Yu smiled, "Throwing a little tantrum with me?"

"I dare not." Hongye hurriedly responded, "I will manage the Chi Bear Tribe of the Mountain Realm well for Master."

Du Yu: "Even after the contract, you can still manage."

Hongye looked down at Du Yu, her eyes firm: "Master’s Acupoint Home still has use, very important use.

I will become a Saint, I will become Supreme!

I will find a way to sign a contract with Master, the opportunity I wasted myself, I will make up for it."

"Heh." Du Yu laughed, "You think I was discussing with you."

"Ying?"

Du Yu looked at the cute bear face under the Bamboo Leaf Conical Hat.

His mind was filled with the bits of memories with Hongye along the way.

Du Yu spoke: "This is an order."

Hongye: "..."

Du Yu: "Once Ghost Firefly activates the Ancient Body and leaves my acupoint, you and I will sign a contract."

"Ying." Hongye lowered her eyelids, softly responding, not daring to say more.

"Now, organize your clansmen, let’s enter...uh?" Du Yu paused mid-sentence.

A fierce wave of Demon Breath sudden emanated from Hongye.

Du Yu was bewildered.

Oh boy~

Hongye is becoming a Saint?

I only promised to contract you, that’s so powerful?

How much do you long for...uh, indeed.

Regarding Hongye’s longing, Du Yu had just sensed it.

Du Yu flipped his palm, Bell Shadow flickering.

Hongye’s vision blurred, and next moment, she was already sitting on the "Grass Leaf Slide".

Supreme Jia Rong Grass had long been waiting.

It used its broad deep red grasses to connect the sky as a slide, waiting for the master to send the Chi Bears inside.

Jia Rong Grass hadn’t expected that who first came through would be a Chi Bear opening the advancement window!

Such intense aura fluctuation...

Could this be Demon Emperor·Peak Stage advancing to Demon Saint?

Jia Rong Grass certainly knew this was the master’s subordinate, it dared not delay, immediately releasing a rich wave of Fire Demon Breath.

Hongye slid down the grass leaf slide, then a group of Chi Bears was teleported in.

The black and white dumplings cried "ying ying" as they rolled down the slide.

"Ying!" Little Tai Sui also appeared, with a Beautiful Demon Fox atop it, excitedly sliding down.

Then followed the silhouette of a man and a woman.

"Yahoo!" Du Yu cheered, embracing Wei Emperor, sliding down from high in the sky.

A double joy!

Chi Bears entered the mountain, adding a new race to the Mountain Realm.

Hongye advanced, adding another Saint to the ranks of demon pets!

"Nai!"

"Maa~"

"Roar!!" As the two approached the ground, various roars echoed in their ears.

The Chi Bear Race officially settled into the Mountain Realm, with not only Jia Rong Grass welcoming them!

Yue Mountain Lion, Desert Lynx roared.

Black Sheep and White Deer rejoiced, Colorful Elephant trumpeted, Ghost Demon cackled.

Each Chi Bear landing on the ground saw the faces of various demon beasts.

In the past, the mountain army comrades of the Chi Bear Race had all gathered here, welcoming them in file!

"Ying!"

"Woo~~" The Chi Bears responded enthusiastically, expressing their gratitude for the warm welcome and acceptance of the Mountain Realm’s creatures.

Amidst the various demon pets, a man and a woman slid down the grass leaf slide, slowly landing on the ground.

Du Yu, holding Wei Emperor, looked around, his heart filled with a sense of achievement!

This is truly the life of a Demon Tamer~
