"Sigh!" Shaking his head and sighing, Dugu Bo lamented, "The secret buried deep in my heart was so easily seen through by you. It's really quite unpleasant."

"In that case, I'll cut to the chase."

"Young lady, your poison can not only suppress the venom of the Azure Serpent King, but it will also not dissolve the poison in your body after being absorbed, as long as you are willing to provide... fresh blood regularly."

Dugu Bo turned around and gestured for Little Fairy Doctor to look at a medicinal field in front of the wooden house in the distance.

"You said you could cultivate by ingesting poison, so you can take all the poisonous herbs from my herb garden!"

"I can also take you as my disciple and guide you in cultivating poison techniques and martial spirit!"

"how?"

Alas! I never imagined that I, Dugu Bo, would degenerate into an old monster who survives by shedding the blood of others…

Little Fairy Doctor narrowed her eyes, secretly thinking, "That old man... he gets all the good things."

"Senior, do I have the right to refuse?" Little Fairy Doctor spread her hands, looking helpless.

"That's true," Dugu Bo said in a deep voice. "If it weren't for Yanyan and Lingling, you wouldn't have had a chance to speak at all."

"..." Little Fairy Doctor said, "Senior, I am not interested in becoming your disciple, and I don't have the habit of troubling others regarding the three conditions you previously proposed."

"As for the poisonous herbs in the medicinal garden, I am very interested. Senior, why don't you be generous and give me the whole garden?"

"Tsk!" Dugu Bo frowned and clicked his tongue, looking dissatisfied.

"What's wrong with you, girl? If I said you were smart, you would refuse to become a disciple of a titled Douluo. If I said you were stupid, you would be able to guess the secret I buried deep in my heart."

"And also, little girl, you're very bold and greedy."

"It's one thing to dare to make demands of a titled powerhouse, but to even try to take away my retirement home."

"Oh well! If you're not willing to become my apprentice, I'm too lazy to waste my time instructing you."

Dugu Bo was indeed eccentric. If it were any other titled expert, they would be furious and feel that they had lost face if they lowered themselves to offer to take him as a disciple but were rejected.

"Young lady, you can have my herb garden for retirement. However, I must warn you, with your current strength, do not approach or touch that spring where ice and fire cannot coexist."

"If I stay here for half a quarter of an hour, my meridians will be throbbing from the impact of the spiritual energy. If it were you, you would be blown to death by the intense ice and fire spiritual energy in just five minutes."

"Also, don't disturb the exotic flowers and plants growing around the spring. They grow naturally by the spring. Although they are extraordinary, I don't know what the consequences will be if you consume them."

"If you accidentally ingest rare or exotic plants and end up with broken tendons or skin ulcers, I won't be responsible."

"However, you seem to know about that peculiar spring, and the exotic plants that grow around it."

Dugu Bo changed the subject: "Don't tell me you don't know; you can't hide it from me."

"A Title Douluo's perception is very strong. The first thing you saw when you looked at the spring and the exotic flowers and herbs after you regained consciousness was shock. When you talked to me afterwards, you were completely focused on the exotic flowers and herbs. Tell me, what are they?"

"Ahem!" Little Fairy Doctor swallowed hard and said cautiously, "Senior, I can say it, but you can't go back on your word. You just said it was for me."

"A gentleman's word is as good as his bond. Just say it. If I go back on my word, I'd be unworthy of being a man."

Dugu Bo snorted coldly, clearly dissatisfied.

Although he had a bad reputation and had committed many heinous acts such as murder and arson, he valued promises the most.

Even if those rare and exotic flowers and herbs could help him break through to become a peerless Douluo, he would never regret it!

"I didn't mean to doubt your senior's intentions, I just wanted to prepare you mentally in advance."

Little Fairy Doctor points to the Yin-Yang Spring waterway.

"Senior, this spring is called 'The Eye of Ice and Fire,' and you should know it very well. If it weren't for the ice and fire spiritual energy of this spring suppressing the snake venom in your body, you would probably..."

"Not only that, the growth rate of animals and plants around the Yin-Yang Eye will also increase dramatically."

"Yes, you're right." Dugu Bo sighed, looking as if he had aged several years for some reason.

If it weren't for the ice and fire spiritual energy suppressing the snake venom in his body, he would have died long ago, and there would be no Poison Douluo who dominates the world.

If he had found this treasure in Sunset Forest sooner, his son, daughter-in-law, and lover would never have had to leave him.

For a moment, Dugu Bo felt a blur before his eyes, as if he could see the painful scene of his loved ones being tormented by the venom of the Jade Scale Snake, and his heart ached faintly.

But from now on, his descendants will never again suffer the pain of the Jade Serpent's venom.

"Senior, I won't introduce these rare flowers and herbs to you one by one. Each one of them can help a person defy fate and turn from a useless person into an unparalleled genius."

"To develop keen eyesight, indestructibility, and the ability to raise the upper limit of one's talent potential, one can even allow one's martial soul to evolve."

"If I had to choose between a 100,000-year-old soul ring and soul bone and this rare flower and herb, I would choose the latter without hesitation."

Dugu Bo's heart skipped a beat.

It can cause a martial soul to evolve, increasing the upper limit of its talent potential...

If he could absorb even one, would he be able to break through his bottleneck and attempt to reach the Super Douluo realm?

If Yan Yan absorbs it, her martial soul will evolve into the Azure Serpent Emperor...

"Why."

With a heavy sigh, Dugu Bo was filled with regret.

He should have asked first before deciding whether to give away this opportunity to defy fate.

I'm really getting old; my brain can't keep up anymore.

He could do without it, but Yan Yan absolutely had to absorb one. Even if it didn't evolve her martial soul, as long as it could enhance her talent and potential, and allow her to break through to a title and surpass him in the future, that would be enough.

That way, after he passes away, Yan Yan won't be bullied by those bastards from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.

"Little girl...I..."

The words were on the tip of his tongue, but Dugu Bo couldn't bring himself to say them. After all, he had not only sworn in his heart that he would not go back on his word, but had also made repeated promises to Little Fairy Doctor.

If you were to ask for it back, wouldn't that be incredibly embarrassing?

Little Fairy Doctor suppressed a laugh and said, "Senior, have you changed your mind?"

"No, I'm just feeling a bit sentimental."

Dugu Bo shook his head and sighed, looking every bit the hermit sage.

"Treasures of nature are indeed meant for those who are destined to possess them."

"I found the Yin-Yang Eye, the opportunity to defy fate, yet I was unaware that I had allowed this pearl to remain obscured for so long. Alas! Fate is cruel."

"By the way, can you absorb all these rare and exotic herbs by yourself? You should know the principle that a weak body cannot tolerate excessive nourishment..."

Dugu Bo mumbled something, while Little Fairy Doctor remained silent until he stopped.

"Senior, rest assured. The most important issue now is to resolve the backlash between you and Yan Yan from the poison. Once this problem is solved, I will naturally select suitable celestial herbs for you to absorb."
