Chu Yu took a sip of soup, raised an eyebrow, and replied, "I don't know, just wait and see."
Jiang Huai'an looked at the demon egg and was immediately filled with anticipation.
After Chu Yu finished eating and drinking, she took the magic egg back to her room and placed it on her bedside table.
Just then, my phone vibrated; a message had arrived.
She picked up her phone and opened the message, which was from the Hades Group's back office.
[This order from the Demon Realm is now complete. A five-star review will earn you +1000 points and +1000 merit points.]
Chu Yu's eyes lit up; her points and merits had increased so much this time.
The hard work and adventure were worth it.
She opened the customer service chat window and told Xiaomei about bringing the demon egg back to the human world.
Not long after, Xiaomei replied with a voice message: "Chu Yu, you are amazing! Not only did you get the Demon Lord to give you a 5-star review, but you also successfully infiltrated the Demon Palace to bring back the Demon Egg!"
I just reported this matter to the King of Hell, who said that the human world is more conducive to the growth of the demon egg, and that you should take good care of it. As for the cost of raising it, the underworld will help cover it. If you don't have time to take care of it, the underworld will send someone to help take care of it.
Furthermore, to avoid further trouble, the Underworld has temporarily suspended its services in the Demon Realm, and will resume them once this matter is resolved.
Chu Yu replied: 【Alright, I'll follow orders from my superiors.】
She went to the demon egg, gently patted it, and said, "The King of Hell has spoken, allowing you to stay in the human world. From now on, you can stay with me."
...
The next morning.
As Chu Yu was half asleep, a sudden cry of alarm rang in her ears: "Ah, something terrible has happened! The Demon Egg has shattered!"
Chu Yu was startled awake. When she opened her eyes, she saw Tao Susu standing in front of the bedside table, pointing at the box containing the magic eggs and shouting.
Chu Yu got out of bed and looked into the box, which contained a pile of broken eggshells.
She was dumbfounded.
Has the demon egg hatched yet? Why haven't I heard a sound from it?
She asked eagerly, "Susu, have you seen the demon egg itself?"
Tao Susu shook her head: "I didn't see it. I made breakfast and came in to wake you up to eat it, but I didn't expect to suddenly see that the magic egg was broken."
Chu Yu was worried about the main body of the demon egg and ordered, "Go and find it quickly. We can't let the main body of the demon egg escape, or it will be dangerous."
Tao Susu nodded and ran out of the room to look for it.
Chu Yu didn't bother to wash up, casually threw on a light coat, and went out of the room to search.
Suddenly, the storage shed in the backyard exploded with a bang, followed by a huge fire.
Several zombies in the storage room screamed as they flung open their coffin lids and escaped. They burst out of the door and ran frantically around the yard, causing chaos in an instant.
Chu Yu and Tao Susu were startled.
How did the storage room suddenly catch fire?
Jiang Huai'an was startled awake from his sleep. Wearing a pair of red shorts and with messy, unkempt hair, he rushed out of the room and asked in a flustered manner, "What happened? Why do I smell smoke and hear zombies screaming?"
Tao Susu came up to him, pointed to the storage room in the backyard, and said irritably, "The storage room in the backyard is on fire."
Jiang Huai'an looked into the storage room and saw the raging fire. His face turned pale: "Holy crap, how could such a big fire suddenly start? And those zombies even escaped. This is terrible!"
Chu Yu rolled her eyes at him: "Don't just stand there, you and Su Su go catch the zombies, I'll go put out the fire."
After saying that, she rushed to the backyard, grabbed three fire extinguishing talismans from her storage bag, and threw them into the air. The talismans turned into a black cloud, hovering above the fire, and a torrential rain began to fall.
Before long, the fire was extinguished by the torrential rain, the dark clouds dissipated, and a thick plume of smoke spread around, making people cough.
Chu Yu looked back and saw Tao Susu and Jiang Huai'an fighting the zombies in a chaotic manner. They couldn't control the situation at all. Her lips twitched, and she quickly went to help.
After a period of chaos, the zombies were finally subdued and set aside.
Before they could even catch their breath, there was a knock on the door.
Jiang Huai'an quickly went to open the door.
I opened the door, and there were several middle-aged women from the neighborhood standing there.
The plump woman at the head of the group, seeing his disheveled appearance, asked urgently, "Huai'an, I saw your house is on fire. Did you call the fire department? Do you need any help?"
Jiang Huai'an chuckled dryly and quickly said, "No need, the fire has already been put out. You don't need to trouble yourself. You can go back now."
The plump woman breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good. Don't hesitate to come to us if you need anything."
Jiang Huai'an smiled and nodded: "Okay."
The neighbors nearby are very kind to them, often bringing them delicious food and helping them with anything they need. This is one of the reasons why he has always lived here.
After seeing the aunties off, Jiang Huai'an closed the door, went to the backyard, and looked towards the storage room.
Thanks to the timely firefighting, only half of the roof was burned. Although the loss was not significant, he was still heartbroken: "Damn it, I'll have to spend even more money to repair the roof. Who the hell started this fire?"
Tao Susu looked at the zombies placed to the side and guessed, "Maybe those zombies set the fire so they could take the opportunity to escape."
Jiang Huai'an shook his head: "Impossible. These zombies are afraid of fire, and they are all quite obedient. They usually stay in their coffins and sleep quietly. They would never come out to set a fire. It must be someone else."
Chu Yu didn't see Huang Dalu, so she raised an eyebrow and asked, "Where's Huang Dalu? Why didn't he come out to help?"
Jiang Huai'an explained: "Last night before going to bed, Huang Dalu said that his cousin's cousin's sworn sister's younger sister's baby was one month old, and he had to go back to congratulate him. So he went back to the mountain in the middle of the night."
Chu Yu and Tao Susu: "..."
With so many girls, I still couldn't figure out their relationships after hearing all that.
"Never mind that, I need to go and see what caused the fire."
Jiang Huai'an left a sentence and was about to go into the storage room to check when suddenly, with a loud "bang!", the door was kicked open by something, and then a small, fiery red dragon flapped its wings and rushed out, spitting fire at Jiang Huai'an.
Jiang Huai'an jumped back in fright, but it was too late. His red underwear caught fire, and he screamed, "Oh my god, my underwear is on fire!"
Chu Yu's expression changed, and he quickly threw out a talisman. The talisman turned into a basin of water and splashed it at him. The fire on Jiang Huai'an's underwear was extinguished, but he was also suddenly soaked to the bone.
Jiang Huai'an: "..."
Chu Yu ignored him and looked at the little red dragon flying in the sky. The little dragon was about the size of a two- or three-month-old puppy, with small wings flapping behind it. Its whole body was bright red, like flames, and its pair of red eyes were bright and sparkling. It looked cute but fierce.
Chu Yu wondered, could it be the real form of the Demon Egg?
