CHAPTER 45: 040 ANCIENT GHOST FIREFLY?

Walking out of the Demon Pet Center again, Du Yu looked at the starry sky and couldn’t help but sigh.

Under the agency of the Demon Pet Center, Du Yu reached a transaction with the other party, but he felt somewhat uneasy.

The Demon Spirit Atlas clearly states that Ghost Firefly Fire Types have varying personalities, often moody. That means, a small portion of Ghost Firefly Fire Types have decent personalities.

Moreover, the other party noted that this Ghost Firefly Fire Type has a good personality, just slightly mischievous.

Just afraid that Wang Po is boasting while selling melons.

However, since the Demon Beast was listed for trading through the Demon Pet Center, it must be certified by official personnel. From this standpoint, the other party’s notes should be quite reliable?

From this perspective, Du Yu’s 5 Points for official endorsement was actually quite worth it.

"Little Fen Yang, was your previous teammate a Divine Ghost Firefly or a Ghost Firefly?" Du Yu asked in his mind.

Du Yu had once touched upon lightning, but with time being a good healer, the information revealed by Little Fen Yang became more frequent, and Du Yu no longer avoided asking, beginning to lightly explore.

In Du Yu’s mind, under that Great Demon Tamer’s command, the Ghost Firefly Fire Type should surely have evolved to its ultimate form.

"Neither~"

"Huh?" Du Yu was puzzled, "Could it be the Ghost Firefly Fire Type is your new teammate and hasn’t evolved to a high-tier form?"

"No no no, it’s an Ancient Ghost Firefly."

Du Yu: ???

Ancient Ghost Firefly?

Du Yu stopped in his tracks, hurriedly took out his phone, opened the Demon Spirit Atlas, and searched the evolution chain of the Ghost Firefly Fire Type again.

However, in the ultimate form, there were only Divine Ghost Firefly and Ghost Firefly, where’s this Ancient Ghost Firefly?

Du Yu hesitated for a moment, softly said: "Little Fen Yang, can I ask you a question? Please don’t get upset, alright?"

Little Fen Yang sensed Du Yu’s cautiousness, a sweet feeling of being respected and cherished filled her heart with joy: "Mm."

"Was your former Demon Tamer a Great Xia Person?"

"Yes."

Du Yu frowned deeply, unable to understand.

If there’s really another evolution chain, as the top Demon Tamer in Great Xia, the other party would likely report such information?

Even if the person kept it to themselves, not wanting to report it, how could the person’s Demon Pet be so well-hidden under the watchful eyes of the world, never being discovered?

Unless...

Du Yu scratched his head, was Little Fen Yang’s former Demon Tamer a secluded master?

Without the shackles of identity and not being in the public eye, naturally, it can’t be deduced by common logic.

Du Yu: "Little Fen Yang, where does your former Demon Tamer work?"

"She was so powerful, she used to be a Law Enforcer, specializing in catching bad people, but later she stopped."

"Why?"

This time, there was no response in his mind.

Du Yu thought and thought, whispered: "Can you tell me her name?"

"Du Yu." Little Fen Yang suddenly spoke.

"Hmm?"

Little Fen Yang: "Shall we make a deal? Don’t ask anymore, and when you become strong, I’ll tell you everything I can remember, okay?"

Du Yu sighed in his heart, Little Fen Yang really is trying hard to make me work harder in cultivation.

Little Fen Yang: "You are too weak now. Hearing the story won’t help, it might even bring disaster. Now, you can’t help me; only I can help you~"

Du Yu: "..."

Little Fen Yang: "I need to think carefully about what auxiliary materials and environmental conditions are needed to guide the Ghost Firefly Fire Type to the Ancient Ghost Firefly’s evolution chain.

Oh dear~ how annoying, with my fragmented memory, I’ve forgotten so much... actually Xiaoyan might also evolve into the Ancient Fire Fox, but she belongs to the orthodox Pure Fire Faction, the materials might be secondary, I should be able to help her."

Du Yu was shocked: "What did you say?"

Du Yu is very attentive to Xiaoyan, as she was King Du Zhou’s beloved.

Because he knows the Fire Fox Race very well, Du Yu is keenly aware that Little Fire Fox only has one evolution chain!

With each increase in power level, Little Fire Fox grows an additional tail.

In the world’s knowledge, in the world record, the Seven-tailed Fire Fox is the ultimate form of Little Fire Fox, the ceiling — Demon Saint Level.

Although the talent of the Fire Fox Race is generally rated as "high" rather than "extremely high," under the careful attention of powerful Demon Tamers, a very small number of Fire Fox Race members still reached the Seventh Level·Demon Saint Level.

Their power is said to be world-breaking, not inferior to other Divine Pets.

Little Fen Yang sensed Du Yu’s shock, muttered softly: "The aura generated by my Ancient Bloodline should help Xiaoyan, right... should?"

"Why aren’t you sure?"

Little Fen Yang: "Because Xiaoyan has already won the battle against natural laws, becoming a Heterochromatic Demon Pet. I am uncertain if Heterochromatic Demon Pets can still be affected by me."

Du Yu asked: "Did your previous Demon Pet team have no Heterochromatic Demon Pets?"

"No."

Since there was no precedent, Little Fen Yang didn’t dare make any guarantees.

Du Yu: "Then what materials do we need to help the Ghost Firefly Fire Type?"

"Don’t rush, let me think carefully..."

Little Fen Yang was still trying to recall something, while Du Yu’s eyes widened slightly, suddenly realizing that the "Ancient Ghost Firefly" wasn’t part of the universally known evolution chain!

Ancient Ghost Firefly, Ancient Fire Fox, perhaps the so-called "ancient" was a species privately defined by Little Fen Yang and her former Demon Tamer?

Is it possible that every Fire Element Demon Beast nourished by Little Fen Yang’s ancient bloodline could ultimately evolve into a form deserving of being called an Ancient Creature?

What is this? Atavism?

Any Fire Element Demon Beast that continued to exist in the world, Little Fen Yang could use her own abilities, supplemented with Celestial Materials and Earthly Treasures, to help these Fire Element Demon Beasts recover the purest bloodline of their ancient ancestors?

Wait a minute!

Little Fen Yang had clearly stated before that she could be reborn from the fire.

Does this mean that her birth dates back to long, long ago, even to the legends?

And through these long ages, no matter how other Fire Element Spirits proliferated or changed, Little Fen Yang always maintained the purest of ancient bloodlines, reincarnating time and time again.

So, does she have the ability to help Fire Element Demon Beasts retrieve the bloodlines of their ancient ancestors?

Then the problem arises, in such a long time, Little Fen Yang shouldn’t have had just one Demon Tamer.

Or perhaps, before meeting the previous Demon Tamer, Little Fen Yang lived a reclusive life beyond the extraordinary world?

My heavens!

Du Yu had suspected early on that Little Fen Yang’s position in the team was a support role, but he never expected that she could provide support to such an extent!

You....

"Admit it, Little Fen Yang! The tree you fought with back then was the Great Xia Twin Divine Trees of the Kunlun Mountain Range!"

Considering Little Fen Yang’s level, what other tree could be worthy of being her enemy?

The most crucial part is that tree even defeated Little Fen Yang and her entire team!

Besides the origin of Great Xia Demon Spirit Culture—the Demon Spirit Ancestor·Kunlun Twin Divine Trees, can you find another option?

Oh my!

Du Yu was shocked in his heart, knowing this should definitely not be spread, or he’d become a public enemy of Great Xia!

I’ve only been in this Otherworld for half a month and still want to enjoy the Otherworld’s life a bit more... eh?

Seems like that’s not entirely accurate, I shouldn’t speak too soon.

Du Yu frowned slightly, the brief two-week pre-exam sprint provided him with new options.

Looking at the whole planet, besides the continent where Great Xia is located, there are four more independent continents on this planet. Each has powerful nations, and they also have their own origins of Demon Spirit Culture...

Du Yu had also early on searched for news regarding the Kunlun Mountain Range·Twin Divine Trees, and there hasn’t been any recent news of the Kunlun Divine Tree being attacked?

"Du Yu."

"Hmm?"

"You’re not keeping your promise. I’m ignoring you, and I’m not helping you anymore," Little Fen Yang said unhappily in a low voice.

"Don’t, don’t, don’t, I was wrong, I was wrong." Du Yu quickly admitted his mistake, frank and quick.

A support of this level, wouldn’t any team hold her in high regard, honor her with offerings, rather than risk angering her?

Du Yu coaxed for quite a while, repeatedly promising not to entertain such wild thoughts before Little Fen Yang gave him a little reaction.

After eating two more sandwich cookies, Du Yu carefully changed the topic: "By the way, where will you stay after the new Demon Pet joins the team?"

As a Demon Tamer, Du Yu had only activated four acupoints, among which only the Forehead Acupoint and Sea of Qi Acupoint could serve as homes for Demon Pets. Little Fen Yang occupied the Forehead Acupoint, Xiaoyan rested and recuperated in the Sea of Qi Acupoint, and Du Yu had nowhere to accept a new Demon Pet.

All because he was too excited the first time he exchanged Demon Pets, he forgot about this!

Little Fen Yang: "Hmph~ None of your business."

Du Yu: "Uh..."

Seems there is nothing much to worry about, after all, before Du Yu opened any acupoints, Little Fen Yang was already residing in his body. She doesn’t require an acupoint home, Du Yu himself is her home.

Little Fen Yang’s mood changes quickly.

After Du Yu ate another sandwich cookie, she muttered in a low voice, "I’ll squeeze in with Xiaoyan, she likes me."

"Alright." Du Yu scratched his head, is there even such an operation?

Ordinary Demon Pets can’t squeeze onto the same bed after all...

Settling his emotions, Du Yu looked around. Given that it’s past midnight, entering the Demon Spirit Realm is obviously unwise. He thought for a moment and returned to the Demon Pet Center.

The air conditioning here is at a constant temperature, the hall is quiet, and most importantly, it’s safe.

In fact, the Demon Pet Center does offer accommodations, but it costs 1 Point. It seems quite reasonable, 50 Yuan for a night in a four-person room with a private bath, plus a good environment.

But clearly, Du Yu wasn’t planning to spend unnecessary money, aren’t the sofas in the reception hall cozy enough?

Couldn’t the guards at the door, the little brother behind the window, and the sisters at the service desk see you? Aren’t they free bodyguards?

Under the watchful eyes of people, Du Yu used his backpack as a pillow and comfortably lay on the sofa in the hall.

Sorry everyone!

You all keep your night shift well, I’ll take a respectful nap first~

Du Yu cleared his mind of chaotic thoughts to avoid triggering Little Fen Yang’s temper, focusing on cultivation. With the help of the Little Black Gold Bird, he continuously nourished his body and gradually drifted into sleep.

The sisters working the night shift at the service desk exchanged looks, suspecting that this guy might have some social bravado?

With so many women staring straight at you, can you honestly sleep?

As it turns out, Du Yu could sleep, and very sweetly indeed...

From childhood to adulthood, Du Yu never felt his life was so colorful and hopeful, even his dreams were sweet.
