Douluo: From Rusted Spear to Emperor-Slaying Spear

Chapter 171 The Refusal Between Grandfather and Grandson
Dugu Bo turned around and nodded at Ji Wuming with satisfaction.

"That Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng is a family heirloom of our Min clan. How can a dignified Poison Douluo engage in such a forced sale? Aren't you afraid of being ridiculed by the world?"

Under immense pressure, Bai He lay on the ground, roaring angrily. He never expected that this was a gathering of the four clans, and that Dugu Bo, the Poison Douluo of the Heaven Dou Empire, would personally come here.

Moreover, his and Ji Wuming's purpose was quite clear: to obtain the Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng.

He was unwilling to accept it; he was unwilling to accept it.

"Old Rhinoceros, Old Goat, are you really ganging up with Dugu Bo to bully your old brother? We've been friends for over 50 years!"

Now, Bai He only hopes that Yang Wudi and Niu Gao can remember their past friendship and persuade or directly take action against Dugu Bo to help him get back the precious Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng.

Yang Wudi and Niu Gao, standing to Ji Wuming's side, made no further move; they looked at the fickle Bai He with disdain.
“Old White Bird, since you have chosen the Tang family, then we have nothing more to talk about. If Brother Du wanted to kill you and take the Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng, it would be easy, but he did not do so. Isn’t your Min Clan short of money? This 10 gold soul coins is enough for your Min Clan’s expenses for five years.”

"Old White Bird, I'm sorry I can't help you. The Haotian Sect and the Tang family are my enemies. Since you've chosen them, then there's nothing more to talk about between us."

Although Niu Gao felt somewhat sorry for Bai He and Titan's current situation, he was still angry when he thought about how the two of them had favored the Tang family before.

Their four single-attribute clans were abandoned by the Haotian Sect. The Strength and Agility clans, for various reasons, didn't suffer much damage, yet they still wanted Niu Gao and Yang Wudi to join the Tang Sect.
Why do they do this? Is it for their own selfish desire to continue serving the Tang family, or is it purely for the good of their single-attribute four clans?
"Young Master Ji, clan leaders, let's go."

Upon hearing this, Ji Wuming and Dugu Bo walked out of the main hall, followed closely by Yang Wudi and Niu Gao.

After Dugu Bo had walked away, the oppressive force that had been weighing on Bai He and his companions finally dissipated. Bai He stood up angrily, preparing to use his extreme speed to chase after the Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng, when Titan placed his left hand on his shoulder and said...
“Old White Bird, even if you are fast enough to catch up with them, you will not be able to retrieve the Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng from the hands of the Title Douluo. Moreover, you may even perish at the hands of Dugu Bo. It is absolutely not advisable to try to retrieve it.”

"We can only keep this grudge in our hearts. Once Hao'er and Xiao San return to take charge, we will have the ability to take revenge. If we wait until Xiao San becomes a Title Douluo, then Ji Wuming, Dugu Bo, and that old goat who won't listen to advice will all die."

"Alright, a gentleman takes his revenge even after ten years. Dugu Bo, you just wait."

Bai He glared angrily in the direction where Dugu Bo and the others had left, his hands clenched into fists.

Meanwhile, the four people, including Ji Wuming, were sitting in the carriage after leaving Hummingbird City. The silence was unusual, even bordering on awkward. Fortunately, Ji Wuming spoke up.

"Senior Niu, after this incident, the four single-attribute clans will cease to exist, while the Yu and Po clans will completely break free from the shadow of the Haotian Sect and become a brand new force."

Ji Wuming casually took out a few Xuan Shui Pills and handed them to Niu Gao.

"This is the Xuan Shui Pill developed by Senior Yang Wudi. It can promote the improvement of a Soul Master's Soul Power. It can be said to be the best pill we have ever made. After the Yu Clan joined the alliance I formed, there will be plenty of Xuan Shui Pills."

"Thank you, young Ji." After accepting the Xuan Shui Pill, Niu Gao remained lost in his own thoughts, which made the other three feel extremely awkward.

“Old Rhino, don’t be so defensive. Our two families are in the same boat, and to tell you the truth, the younger generation of our Breaking Clan is in no way inferior to the prodigies of those top sects,”

Yang Wudi started laughing as he spoke.
"Our Breaking Clan now has three members who have reached the second ring level after a thousand years."

"what?"

Upon hearing this, Niu Gao immediately became restless. He hesitated to speak, fearing the unpredictable nature of Dugu Bo beside him. This news struck him like a thunderbolt.

"The second ring of the millennium?"

"Yes, and let me tell you..."

Yang Wudi explained the details of the second ring of the millennium to him, which relieved Ji Wuming, who was sitting next to him, considerably.

Recruiting members of the Imperial Clan shouldn't be too difficult. It would be a good opportunity for Yang Wudi to communicate more with Niu Gao and help him resolve the unresolved issues in his heart.

"Boy, if I were to consume this Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng, would my soul power truly be able to break through once again?"

Since Dugu Bo came into contact with Yang Wudi, he has gradually learned about various immortal herbs, and the Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng is undoubtedly capable of purifying the dragon bloodline within his martial soul.
But considering that his soul power skyrocketed from level 92 to level 96 in just six years, a jump of four levels, it seemed far too exaggerated.
This isn't some Soul Master ascending to Soul King; it's a level increase for a Title Douluo. Keep in mind that there are fewer than 35 known Title Douluos existing in the entire continent, and Super Douluos are even fewer.

It is extremely difficult for a Title Douluo to improve their soul power. Not only does it require a suitable opportunity, but it also requires the soul master's own comprehension. However, he improved by four levels within six years.

Dugu Bo looked at the Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng in front of him and couldn't believe that this thing could also increase his soul power level.

"Pretty much. Even if your soul power doesn't increase after you consume this Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng, it will still greatly help you break through to level 97."

Given this, Ji Wuming didn't offer any reasonable explanation, as he wasn't entirely sure whether the Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng would actually help Dugu Bo improve his soul power in his current state.
However, one thing is certain: his Poison Dragon Martial Soul will definitely be further strengthened under the stimulation of the Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng.

Looking at the crystal blood dragon ginseng in the box, Dugu Bo still felt a little regretful, so he said,
“Boy, your martial soul has become very different now. It is similar to the weapon martial soul of an elder of the Spirit Hall in the past. It can also be transformed into a beast martial soul. Moreover, when your spear martial soul is transformed into a beast, it is a true dragon martial soul. This crystal blood dragon ginseng will be of great help to you.”

"No, this is yours, Grandpa. Only when you become stronger can I grow better. The situation on the mainland has already begun to change quietly. If we don't accumulate strength, how will we deal with the dangers that are about to come?"

Ji Wuming refused Dugu Bo's offer. He only wanted Dugu Bo to take the Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng, so that his soul power would reach level 97 after taking it.
