Peerless Taoist

It had already become a monster.    

Lu Yu brought the goldfish to the back mountain of the academy and threw it into the river. The goldfish swam once in the water before suddenly diving into the water. It handed a purple-black pearl to Lu Yu.    

"High-grade Demonic Core? Does that mean there is a dead dragon down there?"    

Lu Yu used the Spiritual Sense to observe and immediately found a huge skeleton of a demonic dragon underwater.    

The skeleton had been dead for an unknown period of time. The flesh and blood outside had long been gone, leaving only a huge skeleton hidden under the water.    

"You want to use this demon core to repay me? Alright, then I'll take it." Lu Yu accepted it calmly.    

The fortune he gave this goldfish was definitely much more precious than a demon core.    

When the goldfish saw Lu Yu's hand, it flicked its tail and swam straight into the river.    

When this goldfish cultivated successfully in the future, it would leave this river and head to an even wider ocean.    

At this moment, a wolf's howl suddenly echoed in the forest.    

Lu Yu turned around and used the Spiritual Sense to look around. However, he found a familiar figure halfway up the mountain.    

It was a Purple Lightning Wolf, and in front of it lay a young wolf cub.    

This was the female wolf that Lu Yu had encountered in the forest when he was attacked by Young Master Tian's group.    

This female wolf looked even weaker, and there wasn't even a trace of demonic qi coming out from its body. The injuries on its body had increased as well.    

Its right leg was already crippled. One of its eyes and half of its face seemed to have been attacked by a ferocious beast, and it was torn off. Bones could even be seen from the broken wounds, which was very terrifying.    

Obviously, after escaping from death that time, this female wolf experienced a few more battles in the forest and survived by luck.    

However, the world of the Demonic Beast was similarly a world where the strong prey on the weak, and it was extremely cruel.    

This Purple Lightning Wolf, which was already at the end of its flight, could not even withstand a single blow after escaping from the wolf pack.    

"You should be dead by now. I didn't expect you to be able to hold on until now." Lu Yu let out a long sigh.    

He could feel that the remaining medicine energy in the body of the Purple Lightning Wolf was maintaining its life.    

If not for that, the Purple Lightning Wolf would have become a pile of bones by now.    

When the Purple Lightning Wolf saw Lu Yu coming, it respectfully bowed, then used its mouth to carefully push the cub in front of Lu Yu.    

"You want me to take in your child?"    

Lu Yu's gaze landed on the baby and suddenly frowned.    

This baby was exceptionally weak.    

This also made sense. After all, the Purple Lightning Wolf had already run out of oil lamps, let alone raising such a baby.    

Lu Yu picked up the infant and said to the Purple Lightning Wolf, "Meeting you and I is karma. Now that I have taken in your child, this karma can be considered settled. You can go and rest in peace."    

At this moment, the Purple Lightning Wolf seemed to have removed all of its burdens. It foolishly looked at the young cub in Lu Yu's arms. It powerlessly closed its eyes, and its life quietly faded away.    

Lu Yu quietly watched, but he did not help it collect its corpse. The Demonic Beast still did not have the habit of collecting corpses.    

Gifting a medicine to save this baby was already the limit of what Lu Yu could do.    

After sending the wolf cub into the storage bag, the monkey glanced at it and said weakly, "Kid, are you treating me like a nanny? This little brat, the life and death compass, is enough for me to worry about."    

Lu Yu did not pay attention to the monkey that was crying out in pain and sent the wolf cub into the Divine Spring to be nourished.
