In the afternoon, Du Yu returned to his old haunt with the Desolate Silver Lynx.

As soon as he entered, he saw the Firethorn Tree beating Li Mengnan.

"Long time no see!" Li Mengnan grabbed a Firethorn Branch with one hand and turned around to look back.

The girl's words carried a hint of resentment, unclear whether it was because the Firethorn Tree was hitting her, or because Du Yu hadn't been home for a while.

Hmm...

Du Yu leaned towards thinking it was the Firethorn Tree that had made her angry.

At that moment, Brother Mengnan was not only sweating, but there was even a red whip mark on her fair face.

Undoubtedly, this was caused by the notorious Firethorn Tree.

"Lu!" Fire LuLu stood by its master's leg, raising a braised pork knuckle high at Du Yu, full of vitality.

A Wind Wizard was flying beside Li Mengnan's head, showing a cute smile on its woven little face.

"Hehe." Du Yu scratched his head awkwardly, "Master Qing wanted to go to the Mountain Fire Saber, how could I not take her?

I just practiced a bit at the training camp as well, didn't I text you before?"

"What kind of a text was that?" Upon hearing this, Li Mengnan was immediately displeased, repeating the text content, "I'm at Mountain Fire Saber, don't bother me unless necessary?"

Du Yu: "..."

Li Mengnan stared intently at Du Yu, her beautiful big eyes almost bursting with fire.

Du Yu whispered, "I have to be on call all the time, and the moment there's a phone call, I have to dash out from the underground training field to answer it... Uh, see."

Du Yu directly summoned Xiaoyan, trying to divert Li Mengnan's attention.

As it turned out, he succeeded.

Li Mengnan had an extraordinary fondness for Demon Beasts, and she was madly in love with Prince Yan.

"Xiaoyan leveled up?" Li Mengnan's eyes sparkled, casually tossing the Demon Soldier Sword to the Firethorn Tree, and quickly approached.

"I'll give you an opportunity." Du Yu handed Xiaoyan into Li Mengnan's arms, "Take her for a bath. Xiaoyan has been training for a week and hasn't properly cleaned up."

While Du Yu was still speaking, Li Mengnan could no longer hear his voice.

Once she embraced Xiaoyan, a soft and charming voice entered her mind, making Li Mengnan's head dizzy.

"Is... is it you speaking?" Li Mengnan gazed at Xiaoyan blankly, looking not particularly clever.

"Hehe~" Prince Yan giggled softly.

Li Mengnan's heart was almost melting: "Say, can you say one more sentence?"

Xiaoyan, however, kept silent, those foxy eyes carried a trace of mischief as she watched the anxious girl in front of her, seemingly finding this moment amusing?

"Go quickly." Du Yu pressed Li Mengnan's shoulder, turned her around, and nudged her towards the guest room, "Once you take good care of Prince Yan, she'll talk to you."

"Mm-hmm." Li Mengnan nodded repeatedly, hurriedly embracing Xiaoyan as she ran off.

Before entering the door, the girl didn't forget to call back: "Wind Witch, Fire LuLu, continue your training, finals are in a week!"

"Lu!" Fire LuLu responded loudly, turning to face the Firethorn Tree, boiling with fighting spirit.

Wind Witch, however, flew to Du Yu's side, Flying Left, Flying Right, flying while letting out a "woo woo" sound.

"Well, go play." Du Yu understood, summoning Little You Ying.

The two little creatures met and immediately pounced on each other.

One witch and one fire jumping and skipping in the air, joyfully flying towards the children's room.

"Brother Tree, I just got back from the Sea Realm." Du Yu left the battle arena where Fire LuLu was, went to the northeast corner of the living room, and sat down, patting the tree trunk casually.

The Firethorn Tree did not respond, waiting for Du Yu to continue the conversation.

Du Yu was excited: "The Shatang Tree has built a particularly spacious house for us, there's a spot for you in the backyard, do you want to live there?"

The Firethorn Tree remained silent, just wrapped Fire LuLu in its leaves, continuing to torment it.

Du Yu continued, "In the Sea Realm, you can hold your head high as a tree, no longer having to curl up miserably as you do now.

And that courtyard is particularly spacious!

If you stand in the center, the surrounding grounds are bigger, and can provide us with better training, how about it?"

Firethorn Tree suddenly spoke, "I can't accompany you for much longer."

Du Yu's face tensed up: "What do you mean?"

Firethorn Tree: "Xiaoyan is already at Spirit Level, Little You Ying, Tai Sui will all soon level up, including you.

And I can no longer advance, my talent has reached its limit, my abilities have come to a standstill.

Soon, I won't be able to train you anymore."

"You scared me!" Du Yu slapped the tree trunk, feeling discontent, "You need to be careful with your words in the future. I thought you were dying!"

Firethorn Tree: "..."

"Even if you are weak, you're still my Demonic Plant, you must always accompany me." Du Yu slapped the trunk again, "Born my tree, and when you're dead, my firewood."

Firethorn Tree said sullenly: "Do I still need to be firewood after I die?"

"Aren't you Fire Attribute? You must be especially resistant to burning."

Firethorn Tree: ???

Du Yu chuckled, "Kidding aside, let's talk serious, is your cultivation really at its end?"

"Yes, Spirit Level·Great Success Stage is already my limit." The Firethorn Tree's voice was light, "The mistress once told me, my limit is Spirit Level·Minor Achievement Stage to Great Success Stage.

Her judgment was correct, my cultivation will stop here.

Like the Shatang Tree, whose strength reaches the sky and can live hundreds or even thousands of years, are rarely seen in the world."

Du Yu's face gradually turned serious, "Once your cultivation is improved, your life will naturally be extended."

The Firethorn Branch gently swayed: "Most Demonic Plants in the world, ultimately cannot escape the fate of withering.

Life and death are not the focus; death is still far from me.

The main thing is that the Paper Crane Disciple group and their internal Demon Pets are growing rapidly.

It's not just you, even Li Mengnan and her Demon Pet are the same. Soon, I won't be able to help you anymore."

"Don't say that." Du Yu held onto a branch, gently rubbing the leaf.

Speaking to this extent, it's clear that the Firethorn Tree really doesn't want to go to the Sea Realm or stand in the territory of the Shatang Tree...

However, the Firethorn Tree's concerns are obviously not just a whim.

Beneath its tough and domineering exterior, there hides a delicate heart.

The Firethorn Tree should have been worried for a long time. It just took this opportunity to express its thoughts.

Perhaps the Shatang Tree has provoked the Firethorn Tree.

Strictly speaking, the two of them are indeed in the same profession, yet they're worlds apart in terms of strength...

"Silly Du Yu~"

"Hmm?" Du Yu turned his head, looking at the little creature flying out, "What's wrong?"

Little Fen Yang's actions were vivid, and its small mouth moved close to Du Yu's ear: "Demon Fruit Tree Heart."

Du Yu's eyes lit up, exactly!

Demon Fruit Tree Heart!

The first effect of the Rare Treasures·Demon Fruit Tree Heart is to stimulate the cultivation potential value limit of Demonic Plants!

The second effect is to increase the yield of Demon Plant Fruits.

Du Yu had identified the Demon Fruit Tree Heart in the Ten Thousand Plants Garden before, and the Demon Spirit Atlas clearly stated it, so there wouldn't be any mistake.

"Hmm." Little Fen Yang gave a light exclamation and suddenly shrank back into Du Yu's body.

From a distance, in the children's room, Little You Ying ran out cheerfully, with the Wind Witch in hot pursuit.

The two little creatures flew all the way to the dining room, seemingly playing wildly, and You Ying even phased through the battlefield of Fire LuLu...

"Slow down, be careful!" Du Yu admonished, and then gently twisted the Firethorn Leaf again, "Firethorn, I have a way to help you raise your potential limit. Have you heard of the Treasure·Demon Fruit Tree Heart?"

The Firethorn Tree shook its branches: "Never heard of it."

"Trust me, it can help you unlock your potential!" Du Yu said confidently, "It's the partner that all Demonic Plants dream of, the Forest Spirit.

It can assist the growth of Demonic Plants of all attributes in the world!"

"Really?"

Du Yu: "Would I say it if I didn't believe it?"

"Hmm..."

"That's settled then, there's no time like the present. I'll go find the Demon Fruit Tree Heart for you now!"

Du Yu stood up and continued, "Furthermore, regarding the ancient house in the Sea Realm, the front yard is under the management of the Shatang Tree, and the backyard will be yours to manage.

Even if you don't want to go, you have to, and I will personally plant you in the courtyard."

The Firethorn Tree felt something unusual in its heart but didn't respond.

Relationships between people change with strength and weakness.

The same goes for Demon Tamers, Demon Pets, and Demonic Plants.

When the Firethorn Tree first met Du Yu, he was a novice who couldn't even hold a bow and arrow steadily.

At this moment, although Du Yu is still inexperienced, his momentum for growth is strong, and his future strength is foreseeable.

He has too many trump cards and doesn't even need the future; he can already cash in his combat power now.

"With the Demon Fruit Tree Heart, maybe you can grow to be as towering as the Begonia Tree." Du Yu gently comforted, gesturing to the Desolate Silver Lynx.

The long-waiting Baojun quickly leapt over.

She had thought, finally, they could bathe together, enjoying the happiness of being fully soaped.

Not expecting that Du Yu, having just arrived home, was going to take her on a journey again?

"Where are we going?" The Desolate Silver Lynx looked displeased, her long tail coiled around Du Yu's waist and abdomen.

Du Yu pointed to the Firethorn Tree: "The cultivation of the Firethorn has reached a bottleneck, so we're going to find a treasure to let the Firethorn continue its dominance."

The Desolate Silver Lynx looked curious, gazing up at the Firethorn Tree: "It's just a tree, a Demonic Plant."

"Demonic Plant, Demon Pet." Du Yu hugged the big cat's head, gently caressing, "Whatever it is, as long as it's with me, it's my partner.

The Firethorn Tree has always taken care of my growth. Now that it's encountering difficulties, we need to help it."

The Desolate Silver Lynx nodded thoughtfully, temporarily suppressing the desire for a bath.

Du Yu's sentence "as long as it's with me, it's my partner" made her very happy, even reminding her of herself.

In the past, the Desolate Silver Lynx disdained contracts.

But as she spent more time with Du Yu, she increasingly longed to integrate into Du Yu's body.

But due to the limitations of the Heaven and Earth Laws, some things could only remain a regret.

The Desolate Silver Lynx wrapped her long tail around Du Yu, placing him on her back, and turned to leave.

"I'm going, Brother Tree."

Beside him, a branch extended the Demon Soldier Orange Juice to Du Yu.

Du Yu patted the leaves: "Tell Mengnan that I'll be back soon."

The Desolate Silver Lynx silently carried Du Yu to the door, treading on a carpet of leaves, feeling the thoughts of the owner on her back, and the leaves beneath her feet.

Since regrets are unavoidable...

Being a partner sounds pretty good too.
