Chapter 439 Chapter 439 It seems to be... Yuyu? ? ...
Su Wu has a bit of a bad taste in most cases.
When there is danger, no one can be more reliable than Su Wu.
But when there is no danger, the biggest 'danger' around the little fish cub is very likely to be His Majesty.
Although His Majesty was not very interested in handing the entire world over to the little guy, he wanted to wait for the little guy to make his own judgment after he grew up. The little cub had plenty of time and opportunities, and he had his back anyway.
There was no problem in this regard, but His Majesty Su Wu seemed very interested in his own cub's previous "lofty ambitions".
Su Wu stood up, walked step by step to the little fish cub, and looked down at the little guy.
The little fish cub was sleeping soundly on the table, with its soft little face pressed on the table. The light fell on the white and soft little face, and it looked very small and well-behaved, with small arms and hands, and a brush dipped in ink in its hands.
Su Wu looked at it for a long time. He reached out his hand, gently pinched the little fish's face, and kept pinching it back and forth.
Normally, the little fish wouldn't sleep so soundly.
But there was so much that happened all day today.
Whether it’s the morning experience or the afternoon activities.
Su Wu was intentionally consuming the little guy's energy and physical strength, for fear that the things that happened in the morning would affect the cub.
The little guy looked completely dazed, as if nothing could affect him.
But after spending a long time with the little guy, Su Wu knew very well that it was not that the little guy would not be affected, he just reacted too slowly. Sometimes he was obviously scared to death, but it was not obvious at once, and it took a long time for him to react.
Su Wu pinched the little fish's cheeks, pinching the left side and the right side.
In the end, he simply took the small brush from the little fish.
The scent of ink filled the air, but the little fish was completely unconscious. Without the "restraint" of the small brush, its little head tilted and it simply lay down in a comfortable position.
Are you sleeping so soundly?
Su Wu held the brush, lifted the little guy's chin, and looked at it carefully. The little face was like a little cat, with dots of ink. He put down the small brush in his hand, took a new brush from the side, and dipped the other side in gold ink.
When Li De looked inside from outside the door, he was still shocked.
Su Wu was pinching the little guy's face, squinting his eyes and tracing the edge of the Pisces mark between the little guy's eyebrows.
He wrote every stroke with extreme care.
The red marks of the Pisces given to the little fish were all traced into golden red.
The little guy didn't notice, just smacked his lips and continued to sleep.
After having the cubs, His Majesty started playing with them and came to the conclusion that the cubs were very fun.
Li De: ...
His Majesty!
Li De whispered in his heart.
You're just taking advantage of the little prince's good temper and slow reaction. If you tried this with another kid, the cries would be deafening! !

In the capital city.
The sun has completely set and the lights on the streets are on. Many big monsters have been eliminated today. The people in Shangjing City don’t know where these monsters were originally active, but they know that these monsters feed on them and are man-eating monsters, and they died in Shangjing.
This is something I have never heard of before.
Even the child-eating ghost from last time was far less powerful than these big monsters.
As a result, the already bustling Shangjing City at night became even more lively.
The sounds of drums and gongs filled the capital city with jubilation.
It’s so lively.
In the small courtyard where the two brothers of the Jin family were imprisoned.
The two of them talked a lot in the afternoon.
Jin Fei was originally full of anger, but when he saw the head of the demon general hanging high outside Shangjing City, his anger dissipated quietly. In the end, both of them lay on the courtyard wall and watched the excitement outside.
Li Ye was still guarding them. He saw that they were just climbing on the wall and looking out, without moving.
"Shangjing City is more lively than I imagined."
“I didn’t think of that before I came here.”
The two Jin brothers were whispering on the wall.
"Really? I see you get along pretty well with the people here."
Jin Tian was silent for a long time, looking outside.
"...Brother, where did the news we know come from? We have never truly met His Majesty Su Wu before, and we have never truly interacted with His Majesty Su Wu, but we look at the overall situation and say that he is a tyrant, full of violence, and that he is ignorant of the people. Those who are related to our family are also eager to gain our power to build a better era, to better unite to suppress those demons and leave a little chance for survival for the human race."
Jin Fei didn't say anything.
He listened to Jin Tian continue.
"But it seems not to be the case. Rumors and what we actually see can conflict. In this age of information blockade, we seem to be more likely to conclude things. Sometimes when I communicate with them, I can't help but feel that I don't know as much about this dynasty as these ordinary people do."
"After all, at the feet of the emperor, His Majesty——"
Jin Fei had to admit it.
"They're truly powerful. Sometimes, being too powerful can inspire awe in others, leading to fear and rejection. Also, the news we've received—I'm wondering, who can be sure it's not just demons and monsters spreading rumors to disrupt us? Perhaps this is why leaving a path for the human race is so difficult."
"Brother—you've gained more insights than I have on this day."
"...If you were tied to a carriage and thrown in here, would you try it? You fool who took the wrong road."
"Can you blame me? To be honest, after so many times, I did find out. It was just my good luck that I took the wrong path and was the first one to be caught."
Jin Tian still had a strong argument.
"Look at His Majesty Su Wu. Honestly, he doesn't even bother to deal with us. And listen to what that villain from Qiankun Mountain outside... oh no, that Li Ye said? The fate that has already been cast can be reversed. Maybe His Majesty can handle it himself in the future, and he won't be short of manpower. By then, the Divine Beast Family might be the one to be dealt with as well. Why would they need you?"
"Come on, so you're lucky, then?"
"That's—"
Jin Tian muttered.
"But it's really strange. It's already dark, why hasn't that old man come back yet? Brother, you don't know, it was that old man who scolded me the most fiercely. He even brought his sons and grandsons to scold me, and he scolded me even more fiercely than the family that His Majesty Su Wu saved."
The young master from a family of divine beasts was raised in luxury and was a man of great luck. From childhood to adulthood, apart from the teachings of his parents and master, he had never been told a harsh word. During his trip to the capital, he was almost scolded to tears several times, but he still grew up in some aspects, such as his mentality.
"Is that the old man who came to you today and told you that he wanted to go up the mountain?"
Jin Fei also looked over.
"That's right. I heard that the old man in their family is the oldest person in Shangjing City. I don't know what the people in the palace are thinking. It seems that they think such a long life is rare. They want to see how old the oldest person can be. They keep him in care. Occasionally, the Demon Suppression Bureau will provide some medicine when they go out on missions. But this time, the illness is not good. The rare herbs are nowhere to be found."
Jin Tianyi waved his hand.
"So that old man usually scolds me the most. Why don't you come earlier? If you come earlier, you will get scolded sooner."
He is now imprisoned and unable to escape, otherwise he would like to find some herbs for the old man. It can be regarded as a fate that they get to know each other.
Jin Fei: ...
"Thank you."
The two brothers were talking while leaning on the wall watching the excitement outside.
Someone hurriedly passed by, carrying a familiar figure.
"Why?"
Jin Tian was stunned for a moment, and in an instant he recognized that the person being held by the Demon Suppression Bureau was Mr. Zheng, who quarreled with him all day long, but later, after getting to know him, occasionally sent him some things. He suddenly straightened up.
"What's going on?"
Mr. Zheng injured his leg and some blood was oozing from the wound, which solidified on his clothes.
He looked very embarrassed, but he held the backpack tightly with both hands, and his face looked like he was half laughing and half crying.
"Found it, found it—"
He muttered to himself.
He kept thanking the people next to him, muttering that he had seen the little fish fairy.
"Alright, alright, old man, just be quiet for a while and don't move around. Your leg needs to be bandaged! What's there to thank me for? You should thank your Majesty. If it weren't for His Majesty's order, no one would have gone to the mountain to look for you."
As for the little fish fairy?
What little fish fairy?
The other people in the Demon Suppression Bureau did not see the sunset in the sky.
Although they knew that the young prince was different, most of the officials in the Demon Suppression Bureau received very little information and intelligence, and were unable to connect the dots in an instant, so they were a little confused.
"Everyone you need to thank, everyone you need to thank, you all have to thank them sincerely. My old man is saved. Doesn't this mean he can live another ten years?"
Old Man Zheng spoke quickly. When he saw Jin Tian passing by, he greeted Jin Tian and was then rushed to the clinic by the people from the Demon Suppression Bureau.
"Can you let your old man live another fifty years? He's already a centenarian, haha. Go away, go away, and don't nag me—"
The team leader is still waiting to report back.
The last note disappeared in the celebratory sound of gongs and drums.
Jin Tian watched them leave and was stunned for a moment.
Then he looked at Jin Fei.
"Did the Demon Suppression Division remember everyone who went to the mountain today?"
Still looking for it?
In terms of all the forces they come into contact with.
I haven't seen such a situation.
"And it was carried out quite thoroughly..."
"Maybe it's because the composition of the Demon Suppression Bureau is different."
Jin Fei just thought about it for a moment and quickly came up with the answer.
"The forces in other places are intertwined and complex, and most of them are descendants of local nobles or wealthy merchants. Ordinary people are rare, and there are fewer people with qualifications to begin with, so they are basically the same. However, Shangjing City seems to be different because of His Majesty who does not play by the rules."
His Majesty doesn't care about your noble relatives.
That Majesty said to chop and he did it without any mercy.
I will be merciless with you.
This is a scary thing.
If there is no balance of power among all parties and one side dominates, some intense events will be very obvious to people.
The part about Su Wu's tyranny was infinitely magnified. What was even more frightening was that Su Wu was too strong. No one in the entire human race could compete with him. They were unable to check and balance this emperor, so everyone was in danger, especially those who had previously held the right to speak, who fled Shangjing City frantically.
Therefore, the people who are finally chosen by His Majesty and approved to join the Demon Suppression Bureau - must not be based on any connections, but must be based on their own abilities and skills, and there will also be more people from the people.
Therefore, ordinary people still have awe when looking at officials in the court, but they feel a little more friendly when looking at the officials of the Demon Suppression Bureau, who should be more frightening in their perception.
Jin Fei and Jin Tian said nothing.
Finally, Jin Fei said sullenly.
"Actually, it would be great if all the Jin family members were caught and brought back."
This will save us from having no place to surrender in the end and being killed by His Majesty Su Wu.
Jin Tian: ...
"So I said I was lucky, okay?"
Jin Fei: "Shut up."

Inside the palace.
Su Wu was looking at the mark of the cub that he had carefully outlined with satisfaction.
I looked left and right and thought it was pretty good.
The world consciousness also looked over and it felt that it was not okay.
How beautiful was the pure red mark it made before? Look, Su Wu is now destroying its artistic beauty!
The world consciousness, whose power is completely insufficient to interfere with the world, can only roll in the clouds in dissatisfaction.
Li De kept hesitating to speak.
The little fish cub's soft little face was stained with ink, and the mark on his forehead was outlined with a thin gold line.
The soft tip of the pen touched the skin of the little fish, and finally the little guy opened his eyes in a daze.
"Daddy?"
The soft and vague little voice didn't quite understand what Su Wu was doing.
Su Wu: "Are you asleep? It's okay, Daddy will call you."
The little fish cub's brain couldn't react quickly enough.
He yawned again vaguely.
The little guy was about to find a place to fall asleep again.
"Daddy just remembered someone saying that we should practice calligraphy well and give the teacher a surprise tomorrow."
Who was it?
Who is...coming?
The cub, who had closed his eyes in a daze, reacted for a few seconds, then suddenly opened his eyes before falling asleep and looked at Su Wu.
It seems to be...Yuyu?
