Chapter 63: Farewell and Ice Release

  The next day, early in the morning, the sky was still a bit gray and the sun had not come out. At this time, Wu Yeru had already packed up everything and was ready to set off.

  No way, from last night on, this guy has been somewhat excited, just like some elementary school students who know they are going on a spring outing the next day and will definitely not fall asleep easily that night.

  Similarly, Wu Ye Yu, who was going to venture into the You Shou Forest for the first time, could hardly sleep last night due to excitement. He ended up practicing his inner power for another whole night, of course, this cultivation took place in the system's home space where the speed of cultivation can be doubled.

  "I just don't know if the training speed of that barbaric bull god technique will also increase by a factor of two." Such a shameless thought flashed through his mind, and Wu Ye Yu had some expectations for it, but as to what it was like in detail, he couldn't interfere with or observe the operation of this technique, so he didn't know.

  "Uh, a lot of water, spices, delicious food, cooked meals, snacks, fruits, outdoor survival tools, ropes, binoculars, raincoats, tents..."

  Wu Ye Yu wore a full set of outdoor survival suits exchanged from the system, including camouflage uniforms, windbreakers, leather boots and more. He also carried a double-shoulder backpack with nearly 1,000 energy points, which was very cheap. He continued to rummage through his storage space, where he had accumulated a small mountain of living supplies, but somehow felt that something was still missing.

  "Ah! Right, I need to bring Mom's spirit tablet too!" Wu Yeyu patted his head, suddenly remembering, "Can't leave the tablets here, what if some careless person discovers them, who knows what kind of trouble it might stir up?"

  After arriving at the ancestral hall behind the main hall, he took out three incense sticks from one side, lit them up and respectfully inserted them into the incense burner. Then, facing the spirit tablet, he muttered to himself in a low voice for a while. As for what he said, probably only he himself knew. After that, with a wave of his hand, he moved everything in the ancestral hall back to their home garden.

  At this time, the big black dog that was practicing in the garden of his home suddenly saw a pile of things appear on the empty ground in front of him, and he was startled. After discovering that it seemed to be harmless, he let out a sigh of relief. He wanted to continue practicing, but as soon as he lay down, he felt dizzy and then his whole body appeared outside. Alertly standing up, he looked around and didn't relax until he saw Wu Ye Yu.

  "Woof! Woof!" It seemed dissatisfied with itself for coming out of that comfortable environment and immediately barked at Wu Ye Yu.

  "Hmph! Call out to Mao, call out! Brother, this is all for your own good, you know?" Wu Ye Yu's face showed a 'you're taking advantage of me' expression as he spoke to the large black dog.

  "Woof! Woof woof!" The big black dog stood its ground on all fours, barking furiously at Wu Ye Yu.

  "Hmph! You can't oppose me! This is my decision, and you, as a pet, have to follow. Otherwise, I won't give you any more meat bones to eat!" Wu Yeyu pointed at the big black dog with his index finger, with an arrogant and threatening expression.

  "Woof! Woof~! Wooo~!" The big black dog suddenly moved forward and bit down on Wu Ye Yu's thigh.

  Wu Yeyu, after practicing for so long, naturally wouldn't let him get the better of him. With a single step back, he retreated far away. "Hmph! I'm not the same as before, you despicable dog thinks I'm still the old me!? Let me tell you, once I've made up my mind, it won't change!"

  "Woof! Woof!"

  "Heh heh heh~ Actually, I'm doing this for your own good. Staying in that small place all day would be boring, right? Today we're going on an adventure, and you'll have to come along and exercise too. Hmm, but it's not like before, the forest is very dangerous, so be careful, got it? Don't just run around randomly!" Wu Ye Yu walked over, patted the big black dog's head, and then snapped his fingers at it.

  "Alright, time's almost up, let's go!"

  Then one horse took the lead in front, and didn't even bother to look at the inferior dog that was still opposing, the big black dog had no choice but to follow and quickly caught up.

  ……

  Upon arriving at the entrance, Wu Ye Yu discovered that he had arrived just in time. A team of over twenty guards had also just gathered, each carrying only a few items on their bodies, mainly crossbows, knives, and daggers, which were stuffed all over them. On their backs, they carried small bundles, likely containing essential items.

  Some were packing their belongings, while others took the opportunity to have breakfast. The scene was very lively. Meanwhile, the leader of this trip, Wu Ye Yu's cheap father, Wu Zong Yue, was sitting calmly in the gatehouse, sipping tea and occasionally scanning the surroundings. When he saw Wu Ye Yu arrive, his eyes lit up immediately, and he beckoned to him with a wave of his hand, indicating for him to come over.

  Wu Yeyu was somewhat reluctant, but had no room for rebuttal, and so took the big black dog into the gatehouse.

  Wu Zongyue looked Wu Yeru up and down, then opened his mouth with a curious expression: "Well done, young man, you got up early enough, not bad, and I don't need to find someone to call you specially. Hmm, what's this outfit? It looks neat and tidy, how come I've never seen you wear it before?"

  "You've never seen it before, this is something I specially customized a few days ago, probably the only one in the entire clan, the entire Mountain and Sea Continent. It was only completed yesterday afternoon." Wu Ye Yu looked at Wu Zong Yue with some vigilance, deeply afraid that he would come up with another ghostly idea against himself.

  Wu Zongyue also apparently saw the worry in front of this kid, and flipped his eyes saying: "Alright ~ just a new and strange outfit, your old man me is not yet at the point where I'll grab something just because it's new."

  "Ah, you've brought a dog with you, have you? Well, let me tell you something, kid. We're not going on some picnic or hunting trip this time. We're heading into the Beast Forest for training, and that's no place to be trifling with. One wrong move and we'll all lose our lives. What were you thinking, bringing a dog along? It may look decent, but it's hardly enough to take down any of those beasts. Are you planning on feeding them or something?"

  After finishing speaking, he looked at the big black dog.

  "You don't need to worry about this, I have my own plans for it. If it really gets swallowed by a monster accidentally, I won't blame you." Wu Yeyu said with satisfaction, patted the big black dog's head, but unexpectedly got bitten on the hand by the big black dog.

  "Woohoo!"

  "Ah! Hey! You're just a cheap dog, how dare you bite me? Let go of me immediately! Let go! Can't you hear?!..."

  "Hahaha!" Wu Zongyue, who was on the side, couldn't help but burst out laughing at this scene. When Wu Yeru finally managed to escape from the dog's mouth with great difficulty, he said, "Hmm, this dog of yours isn't bad, it's quite perceptive. Since you've said so much, I won't say anything else. Do as you please."

  Wu Zongyue stood up, looked at the crowd outside, then looked at the sky, and came to the door. He said loudly: "How's that? Are you all here? Take a look yourself, who is missing, report his name to me, and when we come back, let him invite us for a drink!"

  "Hahaha~" The crowd in front of the door burst into loud laughter, apparently everyone had arrived.

  "Haha, this is my son. Ah, the younger one, but don't look down on him just because he's young. This kid has good kung fu skills and is quite clever too. He'll be coming with us to the Beast Forest for training this time. Of course, I'll take care of his safety myself, so you all won't have any extra burdens." Wu Zongyue glanced around in a circle, noticing that although there was some discontent on the faces of the guards, no one spoke up to complain, and he nodded silently to himself.

  "Well, all right, if nothing is left behind, then let's set off!"

  "Let's go!" everyone shouted in unison.

  The people in front of the team began to move towards the direction outside the city, Wu Yeyu carried a bag and brought the big black dog along.

  "Old master! Old master~" Just then, the voice of the second housewife calling out came from the doorway. Turning around to look, Wu San Shao and Wu Ren Jie were also following along.

  "Huh? How did you guys come, didn't I tell you not to see me off last night?" Wu Zongyue's words were somewhat reproachful, but his face was full of comfort and delight. Wu Yeyu stood aside at this time, quietly watching with an unreadable expression on her face.

  "Since you're leaving, the journey is long and the road ahead is unknown. This time it's two or three months, sometimes half a year without seeing anyone. How can I not see you off?" The woman from the second house had an unwilling expression on her face, with tears welling up in her eyes. After composing herself, she pulled Wu Renjie over and continued, "So this time, I specially called Renjie to come and see you and Ye Yu off."

  At this time, Wu Renjie also came forward and bowed to Wu Zongyue, saying: "Father, the journey is arduous, I hurriedly came to see you and my fourth brother off, wishing you a smooth journey and an early return."

  "Everything at home must be taken care of properly, and you must not be reckless. You have to help your mother with household chores, and of course, you can't fall behind in your cultivation either. Don't disappoint me." Wu Zongyue stroked his short beard, his face calm as he spoke to Wu Renjie.

  "Yes, Father!" Wu Renjie immediately responded, then turned to face Wu Yeru, with a complex expression on his face, saying, "Fourth brother, take care of yourself! Today I came to see you off, but as your older brother, I really didn't bring anything worthy, and I'm also ashamed that I couldn't go with you. So, all I can offer is these few words of farewell and a heart full of regret. I hope Yeru won't hold it against me for my past arrogance and irrationality."

  Wu Renjie finished speaking, bowed his head and made a 90-degree bow to himself. Wu Yeru was taken aback by the sight, and then a complex and inexplicable feeling welled up in her heart.

  "It's still the first time in this life for me to have such a feeling..."

  Taking a deep breath, Wu Ye Yu helped Wu Ren Jie up and said: "Past events have already passed, from now on we don't need to mention them again. I hope Third Brother won't disappoint Father and my good intentions."

  After finishing speaking, he nodded at Wu Renjie and slightly bowed to the second lady, then turned around and kicked a big black dog that was yawning aside with one foot, and quickly walked forward. Just as he hadn't gone far, he heard the familiar laughter of Wu Zongyue coming from behind him.

  "Actually blushing, hahaha..."
