After returning to the bureau, Fu Jianzhou and the others went to report their work, but Du Yu didn’t need to.

He went alone to the seventh floor and found Master Qing’s deputy director office, gently knocking on the door.

"Knock knock~ knock~"

Only footsteps could be heard behind the door, followed by the door opening immediately.

"Junior Brother!" Li Jing seemed a bit excited, placing a hand on Du Yu’s shoulder.

"Senior Brother, I’m glad to see you’re well." Du Yu nodded with a smile.

It had been a while since they last met, yet Senior Brother Li Jing was still as refined as ever, with parted hair and glasses.

Only the original frameless glasses now had thin metallic edges, making him look increasingly like a secretary of the director...

Li Jing stepped aside and hurriedly invited him in: "Come, quickly come in."

Du Yu curiously glanced around the director’s office, it was his first time here since Master Qing was promoted.

The room was quite spacious, with Li Jing even having his own separate office area.

Well... it was to be expected.

Compared to Master Qing, Li Jing seemed to be the real "deputy director"?

After all, he did all the work.

And he also had to make time to serve tea and water to Master Qing, and take care of the plants.

Master Qing got himself a disciple that was really cost-effective~

Thinking about it, all of Master Qing’s disciples were quite capable, except for one who caused her endless worry.

"Senior Brother, should I go invite Master Qing now?" The person stood in front of the guest sofa and spoke.

"Go ahead." Li Jing closed the door and waited quietly by the entrance.

A few minutes later, Du Yu and Master Qing appeared quietly.

"Swoosh swoosh~"

In the office corner, Firethorn leaves gently swayed.

This Firethorn tree was specially brought over from the Ancient Pine Tower Demon Spirit Academy office.

It had accompanied Master Qing for a long time, just like Du Yu’s Brother Tree.

However, compared to Brother Tree, this Firethorn tree had limited talent, currently barely at Spirit Level, and seemed difficult to further refine.

"Master Qing." Li Jing greeted formally.

Yang Qingqing quietly looked at her disciple for a long time before smiling and nodding: "Don’t worry."

"Yes." Li Jing responded with a bow.

She turned and walked toward the corner, reaching out with her pale jade fingers to gently twirl the leaves.

"Swoosh~" The Firethorn tree swayed again.

As a Spirit-level Demonic Plant, its intelligence was naturally high, and it had witnessed the moment Rotten Master Qing shattered.

"Master Qing, please wait, I’ll brew you some tea." Li Jing said, moving towards a cabinet.

Yang Qingqing responded softly: "Okay."

Li Jing didn’t say anything further and focused on brewing tea.

Yang Qingqing casually twirled the leaves and walked to the immaculate desk, slowly sitting down.

Looking at Senior Brother Li’s busy figure in the distance, Du Yu whispered: "Master Qing, between my Senior Sister and Senior Brother Li, who is older?"

Yang Qingqing turned to look at Du Yu, curious: "Why did she suddenly come to mind?"

Du Yu: "Didn’t Master Qing want to gather the disciples for a meal? Senior Sister is the only one outside, it’s quite pitiful."

In fact, the sudden thought of Senior Sister wasn’t really because of the gathering.

It was because earlier in the car, Du Yu mentioned "The moon sets, the crows caw, and the sky is full of frost."

Senior Brother Fu immediately asked what the next line was, nearly making Du Yu spill out Senior Sister’s name...

Speaking of "Jiang Feng," Du Yu naturally thought of that beautiful and valiant Senior Sister.

Yang Qingqing: "Jiang Feng is my first disciple, the same age as me, younger than Li Jing and Jianzhou."

"Goodness~" Du Yu grinned.

True masters recruit those of the same age, huh?

Seeing through Du Yu’s thoughts, Yang Qingqing explained: "I joined the military very early.

When Jiang Feng joined the team, I was already an ’old soldier,’ and I guided her."

"Oh." Du Yu thought for a moment and said, "Has Master Qing never considered recruiting Senior Sister to the Twenty-Ninth Bureau?"

Yang Qingqing: "She has her own life plan."

Du Yu felt a sense of pity in his heart and sighed quietly.

Yang Qingqing looked at her disciple and suddenly blurted: "What, you’ve taken a liking to her?"

Feeling awkward, Du Yu scratched his head: "I think she’s quite capable."

During the operation at Ancient Pine Tower South Suburbs Bottomless, Jiang Feng was given major responsibilities, leading the team to investigate and support the master and disciples.

This undoubtedly demonstrated Jiang Feng’s personal ability, as well as her comprehensive leadership qualities.

Du Yu continued muttering: "Cyan Sect disciples are all under Master Qing’s command."

"Heh." Yang Qingqing elegantly crossed her legs, seeing Du Yu’s little schemes, "Is one Fu Jianzhou not enough for you?"

Du Yu: "..."

The journey to Kunlun, the trip to Otherworld, had undoubtedly greatly expanded Du Yu’s horizons.

Demon Fire burning the tree slightly dulled the blade hanging over Du Yu’s head. 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

But at the same time, a sharper blade appeared!

The apocalyptic scene of the Otherworld Continent brought Du Yu an unprecedented sense of crisis.

As proven, no matter how strong one’s individual power is, mistakes can happen.

What does being the Celestial Cyan Porcelain Supreme matter?

There is always a taller mountain, she feared her presence would attract Youhan Tree’s targeting.

What does it matter that Du Yu has Holy Grade Demon Soldiers by his side?

Master Qing was stranded elsewhere, facing dangers, almost losing her life.

In the face of absolute crisis, recruiting soldiers, strengthening oneself is a must.

However, people Du Yu considered "his own" were few.

With Master Qing above, her disciples naturally possessed the corresponding qualifications.

Unfortunately, Senior Brother Li Jing was tightly bound to the office, leaving Du Yu only Fu Jianzhou, Lin Shiwei, and Li Mengnan.
