Douluo: The Second Lady of the Worship Hall, decisive in killing

Chapter 21 Dugu Bo's Choice
Listening to Ye Xi's words, a barely perceptible murderous intent flashed in Dugu Bo's eyes, and his palms gradually clenched into fists, but when he saw Ling Yuan beside Ye Xi, he gave up the idea of attacking.

Dugu Bo is a man who is not easily persuaded, and the only person he is concerned about is his granddaughter Dugu Yan.

If Ye Xi can really detoxify, it would be fine to give the medicine garden in the Sunset Forest to Ye Xi. After all, for Dugu Bo, the biggest function of the medicine garden is to suppress the venom of the Bilin snake.

What really made Dugu Bo difficult to accept was the condition of working for Ye Xi for ten years. Dugu Bo was not afraid of loneliness, but what he feared most was having his freedom restricted.

Dugu Bo turned the teacup in his hand, his thoughts flowing in his eyes, and his gaze gradually looked at Ye Xi.

"Can you really detoxify?"

Dugu Bo's voice returned to calm.

Ye Xi, who had just walked to the door of the hall, gradually showed a smile on his face after hearing Dugu Bo's words.

Because she knew that when Dugu Bo asked this question, the matter was basically settled.

"Naturally."

"After all, there's no need for me to make fun of my seniors."

"And I can add one more thing. I will not restrict your freedom. If it is not necessary, I will not let you do anything."

Ye Xi silently extended a finger and added an extra one to show his sincerity.

"Um……"

"I'll think about it and give you an answer tomorrow."

Dugu Bo put down the teacup in his hand, put his hands behind his back, and walked towards his residence.

Looking at Dugu Bo leaving, Ye Xi smiled and walked straight into the hall of the mansion.

Dugu Bo’s matter has been dealt with for the time being.

The next thing to deal with is naturally the avalanche.

"Sister Tianyao, take Xue Avalanche with you. We should go back to the hotel now."

As soon as Ye Xi entered the hall, he saw the Fourth Prince Xue Beng with bruises all over his face.

Tianyao sat on the chair, eating fruit slowly, glancing at Xuebeng from time to time, as if he was ready to take action at any time.

"Are you going back?"

Tianyao put down the fruit in his hand and prepared to pick up the Fourth Prince Xuebeng from the ground, but Lingyuan got there first.

"Miss Tianyao, just leave this matter to me."

Ling Yuan picked up Xue Beng and found that his body was covered with superficial wounds, so he didn't pay too much attention to him.

"OK then."

After Tian Yao agreed, he came to Ye Xi's side.

Just as the group was about to leave the mansion, they saw Yun Jin, the former owner of the mansion, walking over.

"Miss, I will have the mansion ready in two days."

"You can just come and check in when the time comes."

Yun Jin looked at Ye Xi and the others, and his voice couldn't help but become respectful.

"Well, I see."

Ye Xi nodded slightly, then walked out of the mansion and headed towards the hotel.

Tianyao and Lingyuan followed Ye Xi silently.

……

And on the other side.

Tiandou Palace.

In the magnificent hall, Emperor Xue Ye threw the memorial in his hand to Prince Xue Xing below.

"Avalanche is such a rebellious son!"

Emperor Xue Ye patted the armrest of the dragon throne heavily, looked at Prince Xue Xing below, and said, "Didn't you say you would discipline Xue Beng well?"

"That's how you discipline Xuexing!"

"Before, he only played cockfighting and bird-walking, and occasionally flirted with decent women, but now he dares to provoke a Titled Douluo!"

Emperor Xue Ye's chest heaved, and his tone was filled with anger.

"Your Majesty, I have been busy with affairs recently and have neglected to discipline you, so this happened."

"Now we should think of a way to bring the avalanche back."

Prince Xuexing stood quietly below with his head lowered.

"Busy?"

"Then let Qinghe take care of some of the things." "Don't worry about the avalanche, let Qinghe handle it."

Emperor Xue Ye waved his hand, looked at Xue Qinghe who was standing beside him, and said, "Qinghe, you will hand over the affairs to Xue Xing later."

"Then go and deal with the avalanche issue. As for their conditions, it's okay to agree to them."

Emperor Xue Ye said this and exhaled deeply.

"Yes, Father."

"I will take care of things properly, please rest assured, father."

Xue Qinghe bowed respectfully, appearing calm on the surface, but extremely happy in his heart.

"As expected of my good sister, this assist was really beautiful."

Xue Qinghe thought secretly in his heart.

He was in the Tiandou Palace and hadn't done anything yet, but power was taken away from Prince Xuexing. How could he not be happy?

Prince Xuexing, who was standing below, was about to say something when he was glared back by Emperor Xue Ye's angry eyes.

"Okay, you all go down."

Emperor Xue Ye waved his hand and headed towards the back hall.

After Emperor Xue Ye left, Xue Qinghe went straight to Prince Xue Xing's side.

"Uncle, let's go and hand over the affairs."

"After the handover, I can deal with the avalanche as soon as possible."

"No matter what, Xue Beng is also the prince of the Tiandou Empire. It would be better to bring him back as soon as possible."

Xue Qinghe's voice sounds gentle and elegant.

"Hey, let's go."

Prince Xuexing glanced at Xue Qinghe and let out a helpless sigh.

The two of them walked out of the palace together and went to hand over the affairs.

……

sunset.

The sky gradually darkened.

In a somewhat secluded courtyard, Dugu Bo was lying on a rattan chair, staring quietly at the starry sky, with thoughts flowing in his eyes.

"Grandpa, why are you still lying here?"

A pleasant voice rang out in the courtyard.

When Dugu Bo looked over, he saw his granddaughter Dugu Yan walking towards him.

"Yanyan, aren't you in Tiandou Royal Academy?"

"Why did you come back suddenly?"

Dugu Bo sat up from the rattan chair, and a rare smile appeared on his old face.

"Grandpa, don't I miss you?"

"So I came back to see you."

Dugu Yan sat down next to Dugu Bo, picked up the teapot beside her, and poured two cups of tea.

One cup for Dugu Bo and one cup for myself.

Dugu Bo took the teacup but did not drink the tea. Instead, he looked at Dugu Yan in front of him with deep thought in his eyes.

"Grandpa, what are you thinking about?"

Dugu Yan stretched out her hand and waved it in front of Dugu Bo's eyes.

"nothing."

"What can grandpa think?"

After taking a sip of tea, Dugu Bo put the cup aside and leaned back on the rattan chair.

"If that little girl can really detoxify, then there's nothing wrong with agreeing to her terms."

Dugu Bo thought silently in his heart, and his eyes gradually closed.

Although Dugu Bo was afraid that his freedom would be restricted, he decisively chose his granddaughter over his own granddaughter.

Isn’t it just a medicine garden, plus ten years of service for that little girl?

Compared to his granddaughter Dugu Yan, it is totally unimportant.
