Douluo: Starting from the Nine-Curved Vine Dragon

Chapter 126 Return to Yufeng City

Three days later.

At the gate of Yufeng City, there were groups of convoys of pedestrians coming and going, forming a line that seemed to have no end.

In the middle of the team, the curtains at the window of a carriage were lifted, and an old man with green hair leaned out of the carriage and looked out.

Seeing the long line in front of him, Dugu Bo complained:

"Pooh!"

"What bad luck! Why did I have to run into something like this?"

"The line ahead is still so long. It will take at least half an hour for us to enter the city!"

"Sir, if it were me, we shouldn't have wasted three days in Dian Capital City, otherwise we wouldn't have run into the Fengjian Sect's troubles when we arrived at Yufeng City."

As he spoke, Dugu Bo lowered the curtains and turned to look at Lin Rong who was practicing silently on the seat on the left side of the carriage.

After hearing this complaint, Lin Rong continued to practice the Washing Marrow Sutra, but he was able to focus a little and said:

"Why, are you teaching me how to do things?"

"I dare not." Upon hearing this, Dugu Bo answered reflexively, and his neck involuntarily shrank like a frightened quail.

After leaving Diandu City, they were on their way to Yufeng City in a carriage when they learned something from passers-by on the road.

The current leader of Fengjian Sect will abdicate the position of leader to his eldest son who recently broke through to the Soul Douluo realm on his 80th birthday.

For the Fengjian Sect, this was a double happy event.

In order to celebrate this happy event, and also to publicize the style and heritage of their Fengjian Sect as one of the four lower sects.

The leader of the sect announced publicly that on the birthday, all the expenses of diners in all restaurants and hotels in Yufeng City would be charged to the Fengjian Sect's account.

The news broke a month ago and has spread to several surrounding cities in the meantime.

Today is the 80th birthday of the Fengjian Sect's old leader. A large number of people from nearby towns have come to Yufeng City to join in the fun and to enjoy the free banquets in the major restaurants in the city.

This is also the reason why the city gate is so congested today.

Yufeng City was just around the corner. Dugu Bo became extremely excited and couldn't calm down for a long time when he thought that the poison that had plagued him all his life would soon be cured.

If the mind is not calm, it is impossible to meditate to pass the time.

Therefore, Dugu Bo could only lean against the edge of the car window and listen to the gossip of people queuing outside the gate to pass the boring process of waiting to enter the city.

As the carriage moved slowly forward, the sound of people chatting in the team drifted into the carriage and reached the ears of the three people sitting there.

Among the many idle chatter, a conversation of a passerby caught Lin Rong's attention. The cardinal of the main hall of the Wuhun Hall of Yufeng City was invited by the Fengjian Sect to personally attend the banquet held by the Fengjian Sect.

This made Lin Rong think:
"Inviting the bishop of the Spirit Hall to attend the internal gathering of the sect, does this mean that the Wind Sword Sect has already secretly surrendered to the Spirit Hall?"

"Alas, if I had known about this earlier, I should have asked Yueguan Ghost before leaving Diandu City. As Bibi Dong's confidants, they must be very clear about this kind of thing."

"But it doesn't matter. It doesn't matter whether this matter is true or not. We still have to do what we have to do."

Of the seven major sects in the original novel, except for the top three sects and the White Tiger Sect, one of the bottom four sects, the other three sects of the bottom four all defected to the Spirit Hall without exception.

Therefore, regardless of whether the Fengjian Sect has sided with the Spirit Hall at this moment, they will definitely be his enemy in the future.

Although he is still young and incapable of shaking the behemoth that is the Spirit Hall, he is more than capable of cutting off some vines that are clinging to the big tree of the Spirit Hall.

The situation on the mainland is still relatively stable now, and the water is not turbid enough.

In that case, let him stir this stagnant water even more turbid. After he subdues the Pozhi Clan, he will destroy the Fengjian Sect.

This kind of thing, which happens easily, will not only make the situation on the mainland more turbulent, but also make Yang Wudi, who harbors hatred towards the Spirit Hall, more loyal. It can be said to kill two birds with one stone.

Moreover, he had given away a lot of the soul bones he had at his disposal, and now there were only three of the six ten thousand year soul bones left. It was just the right time to plunder the Fengjian Sect to make some money back.

As one of the lower four sects, I hope that Fengjian Sect’s foundation will not disappoint him.

Time passed little by little.

After waiting in line for more than an hour, the carriage they were riding in finally drove through the city gate and headed towards the southern area of ​​Yufeng City where the Pozhi clan was located.

Perhaps because there are fewer restaurants and hotels in the South District, the streets in this area are not as congested as those in the east, west and north districts.

There were not many pedestrians on the wide street.

This allowed the carriage they were riding in to travel smoothly on the street, and arrived at the gate of the Pozhi clan's mansion without any hindrance.

Lin Rong got off the carriage and stepped onto this familiar and quiet street again.

Then, seeing Dugu Bo standing in front of the door without making any movement, he ordered:
"What are you standing there for? Knock on the door!"

Hearing this, Dugu Bo subconsciously glanced at the coachman behind him, thinking, aren't these kinds of things usually done by servants?
But even though he thought this in his heart, he still obediently pulled the door knocker and knocked on the door.

"Who?"

Following the sound of subtle footsteps, the door opened soon and a young man in cloth walked out. "You are... you?"

This young man was the one who opened the door and showed the way for Lin Rong when he visited the Pozhi clan four years ago.

Although Dugu Bo didn't know them, when he saw Lin Rong and the old butler behind him, his surprised tone clearly showed that he was remembering what happened four years ago.

"Please wait a moment, sir. Let me go in and pass the message."

After saying this, without waiting for Lin Rong and his group to react, he closed the door and walked hurriedly into the mansion.

While waiting, Dugu Bo asked curiously:

"Sir, you have been here before."

"But why didn't you destroy the Pozhi Clan at that time..."

Dugu Bo closed his mouth in dismay when he was halfway through his words.

Given this person's character, there was only one reason why he failed to subdue the Pozhi clan at that time, and that was that he was not strong enough.

Seeing that Dugu Bo shut his mouth tactfully and did not continue speaking, Lin Rong just glanced at him lightly without saying anything.

After being glanced at by him, Dugu Bo also laughed dryly to ease the awkward atmosphere.

Not long after, the young man who went to pass the message came back, opened the door, bowed to Lin Rong, and said:

"This distinguished guest, my family leader invites you."

The carriage had already been put into the soul guide, and someone had arranged for a coachman.

Lin Rong, the old housekeeper, and Dugu Bo were led by the young man to the reception room in the mansion.

In the living room, when Yang Wudi saw the three of them coming in, his eyes fell directly on Lin Rong's hands. Seeing that he had empty hands, his expectant look instantly dimmed, and he said with a hint of regret:
"Nothing. I thought you would bring some rare herbs for me to make medicine with during this visit!"

This statement was very straightforward and in line with Yang Wudi's drug-obsessed personality.

"What is the taste?"

Afterwards, Yang Wudi sniffed the air hard with his nose, then looked at Dugu Bo, who was emitting a faint fishy smell, and saw through the situation of the person in front of him at a glance.

"It's incredible. He can still survive after being poisoned like this. There really are all kinds of strange things in this world."

As he spoke, Yang Wudi walked forward, circled around Dugu Bo, carefully looked at the humanoid poison carrier in front of him, and commented:
"Tsk, tsk, tsk!"

"Green hair and green eyes. Such a deep green. How long did it take for the poison to soak into it to become like this?"

"This fishy smell is undoubtedly the venom of the green phosphorus snake."

"In the whole world, the only person who possesses such a highly toxic aquatic venom is Dugu Bo, who has the audacity to call himself "Poison Douluo."

"So, you came to visit me this time because you want me to cure the poison in this guy's body?"

At the end, Yang Wudi turned his gaze back to Lin Rong, and when he saw her nod, he continued:

"No problem, it's just the poison of the martial soul backlash. It's a piece of cake for me."

"But, what about the reward?" Speaking of this, Yang Wudi rubbed his hands, his eyes filled with desire for the rare herbs.

"If you can produce herbs of the same level as the ninth-grade dragon mushroom we used last time, everything will be easy."

"Even if we don't have any, herbs of one or two lower grades will do, as long as we can make up for the shortage in quantity."

"After all, although the detoxification is simple, it is still a big risk for me to treat the poison for such a moody Title Douluo."

Dugu Bo, who was left aside, asked excitedly after hearing the old man in front of him admit that he could cure the poison in his body:
"Really? Can you really cure me?"

But Yang Wudi simply ignored Dugu Bo's existence, staring at Lin Rong, waiting for his answer with full expectation.

Seeing Yang Wudi's gaze falling on him, Lin Rong took out a large flower with a stem from the dragon-patterned jade bead on his wrist.

It was a strange flower, with pale pink petals as crystal clear as crystal, and pale purple stamens as shining as diamonds.

The moment the flowers appear, a faint fragrance is released, and the refreshing smell permeates every corner of the living room.

"This is, this is..."

Looking at the pale pink flower in front of him, Yang Wudi's trembling voice echoed in the living room. It was an emotion caused by excessive excitement and joy.

He walked up to Lin Rong involuntarily, squatted down and admired the magical herbs in front of him up close.

However, not long after he admired it, Lin Rong put this magical item away.

The immortal item he had been dreaming about disappeared before his eyes. Yang Wudi's face turned coal-black in an instant, as if he was riding a roller coaster. He asked in dissatisfaction:
"Boy, what do you mean?"

"Give me the Youxiang Qiluo Immortal Product. From now on, whenever you need to refine medicine or poison, I will help you refine it for free. I will also cure the poison in Dugu Bo's body. I won't charge you any extra fees. How do you think?"
