Douluo: Starting from the Nine-Curved Vine Dragon

Chapter 61 Surrender and Death

"You, do you dare, do you dare to bet with me!"

The huge pressure was transmitted to Tang San through the tea, causing him to gasp for breath and say:

"Let me recover, and then we can have a fair and just fight!"

"Bet?" Lin Rong sat on the chair, looking down at Tang San kneeling on the ground, and said sarcastically:
"The situation is under my control, why should I bet with you?"

After hearing this, Tang San wanted to say something else, but the weight of the tea in his palms suddenly increased, causing Tang San's hands to slam to the ground.

The tea soup swayed in Tang San's palm and almost touched the ground several times.

At this moment, the humiliation in Tang San's heart reminded him of everything he had experienced in the Haotian Sect when he was six years old.

"A gentleman can be killed but not humiliated. You have humiliated me like this, and you are already seeking death!"

These words roared out in Tang San's heart.

Afterwards, Tang San completely fainted due to the huge consumption of physical strength, soul strength and mental strength, as well as the humiliation he suffered in his heart.

tick~
Without the control of the crane and the dragon, the tea soon flowed from Tang San's palm to the ground.

"Bai He, look." Lin Rong signaled Bai He to look at Tang San, who had fainted on the ground, and said:

“Words said, deals done, are like spilled water, and cannot be taken back.”

“It is not true that spilled water cannot be recovered, but it is often not much different from the truth.”

"It's just because most people who try to go back on their word are the weak ones on the transaction side."

"If you have no strength but insist on doing things your own way, this is what you will end up with!"

"So, are you ready to die?"

"If you are willing to die calmly, I can give you a dignified death."

These words sounded like the devil's whisper in Bai He's ears, making his face turn pale in an instant. The fear of death made his body go limp and he fell to the ground.

Although the arrogance in his heart kept roaring, telling him not to be so cowardly.

However, the Spine-tailed Swift's martial spirit, which has no combat power, destined Bai He to be unable to get rid of the inferiority complex that comes from his bones.

The ancestral teachings he received since childhood made Bai He develop an aloof and proud character, but in the face of death, this aloofness is so vulnerable.

Suddenly, the devil's humming that kept repeating in his mind gave Bai He an idea, and he said as if he had grabbed a life-saving straw:

"You said that if I voluntarily died, you would give me a decent death."

"So, can I choose how to die?"

This made Lin Rong a little confused. Bai He was actually willing to die on his own initiative? This was beyond his expectation.

But soon, Lin Rong thought of something from Bai He's words and thought:

"This old guy actually wants to play word games with me."

"Choose a decent way to die, and after I agree, you can choose to die of old age, right?"

“What a nice thought!”

"No!" Lin Rong refused decisively and then changed the subject.

"But, I suddenly had a better idea."

As he spoke, Lin Rong took out a snow-white herb from the dragon-patterned jade bead.

After taking it out, Lin Rong gently pinched its crystal white branches and leaves, lowered his head and gently sniffed the leaves at the top of the herb that looked like a swan's neck.

This is Snow Swan's Kiss, one of the magical herbs.

Lin Rong used his soul power to extract a drop of colorless and transparent essence liquid from the grass leaves kissed by the snow-colored swan, and said with a gentle smile:

"Bai He, as long as you drink a drop of the juice of this herb, I will pretend that the incident with the Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng never happened, and I will never bring up the past again. How do you think?"

This sudden change in style made Bai He a little confused and he took a few steps back in fear.

Seeing Bai He's cowardly performance, Lin Rong simply delivered the extracted essence liquid to Bai He's mouth and said:
"You can choose not to drink. As a price, I will let Yu Bo destroy your soul power, and you will lose your noble status as a soul master and become an ordinary person from now on."

"Bai He, you'd better think it over before making a decision!"

Although Lin Rong knew that using the life and death of the Min clan as a threat would be more effective, it would be like using Dugu Yan to threaten Dugu Bo.

But he had no intention of releasing the Min clan from the beginning. In addition, he also needed to establish himself as a man of his word in front of Dugu Bo, so he gave up the idea of ​​using the Min clan to threaten Bai He.

Anyway, for a soul master, having all his soul power destroyed is something that no soul master can accept.

Faced with the choice of drinking a drop of herbal juice of unknown effect and having his own soul power destroyed, he believed that Bai He would choose the former.

Time passes minute by minute.

Half a minute later.

"Gurgle~" sound.

Bai He swallowed, closed his eyes, and swallowed the transparent herbal juice suspended at the corner of his mouth in one gulp.

At this moment, Bai He's heart rate reached an unprecedented high, and he was mentally prepared to deal with the expected great pain.

"Eh? I, I'm fine..."

Bai He's face showed the joy of surviving the disaster, but it did not last for half a second before every inch of flesh and blood, every muscle and bone in his body burst into thousands of pains of varying sizes.

After Bai He swallowed the essence of the Snow Swan's Kiss, it spread to every part of his body in an instant.

Those various tiny viruses hidden in the white crane's body multiplied thousands of times under the nourishment of the medicinal properties of the Snow Swan's Kiss.

Originally, these viruses were small in quantity and low in toxicity.

But after these viruses have been amplified thousands of times, they are enough to pose a threat to Bai He. If there are only one or two viruses, Bai He can use his soul power to eliminate them.

But at this moment, the number of viruses erupting in Bai He's body is more than tens of millions.

This is also thanks to the fact that Bai He and Yang Wudi used to be best friends.

Yang Wudi is obsessed with refining medicine and poisons, and every time he does so, he will inevitably be contaminated with toxin residues.

Bai He has a close relationship with Yang Wudi, and because of financial problems, he often goes to Yang Wudi's house to beg for money.

In this way, Bai He was more or less contaminated with various toxins during the physical contact with Yang Wudi.

Normally, these toxins are diluted countless times and the quantity is not large, so naturally they will not have any impact on the white cranes.

However, once the white crane comes into contact with the special magical herb Snow Swan Kiss, its medicinal properties will be absolutely fatal to it, and there is no possibility of survival.

“Ah~ah~ah…”

The miserable and terrifying roar echoed in the banquet hall.

In just a few seconds.

Bai He's hair fell out, and spots of different colors appeared on every inch of his skin.

Immediately afterwards, the white crane's flesh and blood began to rot and pus and blood began to flow.

Thousands of fierce poisonous gases were wafting from the white crane, which made Dugu Bo, the Titled Douluo with a title named Poison, tremble with fear, not to mention the other people present.

Niu Gao quickly moved away from Bai He, and Titan also pulled away Lou Gao and Tang Yuehua while moving away from Bai He, without ever being contaminated by the poison gas in his life.

Millions of poisonous gases were constantly corroding the white crane, and soon all the flesh and blood on the crane's body was corroded, leaving only a skeleton full of holes.

But the skeleton quickly dissolved in the poisonous gas, leaving no residue or debris.

"Old, old white bird..."

Tai Tan and Niu Gao stood there in despair, muttering to themselves.

They simply couldn't believe that a drop of herbal juice could destroy a Soul Douluo in just a few seconds.

"What the hell is that!"

Dugu Bo stared at the crystal white herb in Lin Rong's hand. There was a deep fear hidden in his fearful eyes.

With his many years of attainment in the art of poison, Dugu Bo could be sure that the snow-white herb was not poisonous at all.

Moreover, even if there were, it would be impossible for one herb to contain tens of millions of different toxins at the same time.

After careful consideration, a horrifying answer appeared in Dugu Bo's mind, an answer that he could not believe.

Dugu Bo almost subconsciously wanted to destroy this herb that posed a fatal threat to him.

But the old butler's pressure was always on him and his granddaughter Dugu Yan in his arms, which made Dugu Bo dare not act rashly.

"Dugu Bo." At this time, a still calm voice sounded.

Lin Rong lowered his head and fiddled with the Snow Swan Kiss in his hand, and said in a brisk tone:

"I heard that you are known as the world's drug king."

"Well, would you like to drink a drop of the juice of this herb as well?"

"Don't worry, this juice is not poisonous. If you don't believe me, I'll drink a drop and let you see, or you can let Uncle Yu drink a drop and let you see."

Upon hearing this, Dugu Bo instantly tightened his grip on his granddaughter's hand, feeling torn between his conscience and his desires.

He has been in the underworld for many years, so how could he not hear the threat and hidden meaning in these words.

If you surrender you will live, if you don't you will die.

But Lin Rong's mysterious anti-poison method, the herb that can make the poison grow thousands of times, and a Titled Douluo whose strength is suspected to be above his.

All of this made Dugu Bo unable to muster the heart to resist, especially when he felt the coldness of his granddaughter's palms due to fear, he lost the courage to fight.

The struggle between the conscience and the desire in Dugu Bo's heart soon came to an end.

He put down his granddaughter in his arms, knelt on one knee to show his submission, and said in front of everyone's astonished eyes:

"I am willing to serve the Duke, and I hope you can spare my granddaughter's life."

"Really?" Lin Rong raised his head and looked at Dugu Bo who was kneeling on the ground and asked:

"What about your sincerity?"

Dugu Bo had anticipated Lin Rong's question and answered:

"To show my sincerity, I will make the Min clan completely disappear from this world, leaving absolutely no one alive."

"In that case, go quickly and come back soon. I'm waiting for your sincerity."

After hearing Lin Rong's words, Dugu Bo stood up, glanced at Dugu Yan, then turned around and disappeared in the banquet hall.

Nowadays, although the members of the Min clan are all in Tiandou City, they are scattered around the city because they are carrying out scouting missions.

If Dugu Bo wants to fulfill his sincerity, he will not be able to return in an hour or two.

While waiting, Lin Rong once again looked at the people from the Tang Sect.

"Everyone, Bai He is dead, but the matter of your sect leader offending this duke should also be settled!"
