Douluo Continent: Cultivating Qi and Immortals, Insidious to the Extreme

"Yang Wudi of the Broken Clan?"

Dugu Bo was slightly taken aback, looking at Jiang Xia in surprise.

"Are you referring to the Broken Clan, who were once affiliated with the Haotian Sect?"

Jiang Xia nodded: "That's right, it's that Broken Clan."

"When the Haotian Sect went into seclusion, all the families that relied on the Haotian Sect lost their support."

"Most of the other families, large and small, have been purged by the Spirit Hall, and most of them have been wiped out. Only these four strongest single-attribute families survived after being crippled by the Spirit Hall."

"I suspect that the Spirit Hall is probably trying to use them as bait to lure out the Clear Sky Sect."

"Of course, none of this is relevant to us. All we need is the herbal plant catalog in the hands of the Broken Clan."

Dugu Bo frowned slightly and asked in confusion:

"As far as I know, the patriarch of that Broken Clan is only a seventh-ring Soul Saint. Do they really have catalogs of these rare flowers and herbs?"

"You know, I've searched for half my life and haven't found even a trace of these rare treasures."

Jiang Xia glanced at him disdainfully:

"Strength is strength, and heritage is heritage. The Po clan has a long history and is a famous alchemy family on the continent. How do you know if their ancestors didn't produce any powerful figures?"

"Your Dugu family only has one heir per generation, and only you, Old Poison, were lucky enough to cultivate to the Title Douluo level. What right do you have to look down on others?"

Dugu Bo snorted coldly:

"I don't mean to look down on them. What I mean is that they were chased like dogs by the Spirit Hall for three years, most of their people were killed or injured, and their ancestral land was moved several times. Even if their ancestors passed down the true teachings in the map, I'm afraid the lineage has been broken by now."

Jiang Xia rolled her eyes: "Are you stupid? The catalog is gone, not the person. If you can't find the catalog, can't you find the person?"

"They're being driven to the brink of starvation by the Spirit Hall; isn't this the perfect opportunity to offer them help?"

"What? Could it be that you're afraid of the Spirit Hall, old poison master? Is that why you're making excuses and refusing to go, even though Zuo Yan is unwilling to go?"

"Bullshit, would I be afraid of them?" Dugu Bo snorted coldly, blowing his beard and glaring at Jiang Xia.

"Since you've already made up your mind, then I'm going to the Star Dou Empire today no matter what. I'm not only going to bring back the catalog, but I'm also going to bring back the entire Broken Clan."

"I'm going to show you, kid, whether I'm afraid of the Spirit Hall or not."

Jiang Xia chuckled: "Alright, alright, stop pretending to be a tough guy in front of me."

"Do you think I don't know you? You always cry when something happens, but now you're acting all tough in front of me when you're being stubborn."

Dugu Bo was stunned for a moment, then roared:

"Who? Who's shedding tears? Me, an old man, shedding tears? Disgrace, utter disgrace..."

Jiang Xia laughed and said, "Alright, alright, you didn't shed any tears, it was me who shed tears. I'm the one who cries over the smallest things, okay?"

"Hmph~" Dugu Bo snorted lightly and turned his head away arrogantly.

Watching the old man and the young girl bickering beside her, Dugu Yan suddenly felt somewhat superfluous.

She shouldn't have stood here; she should have stood in the spring and let that terrifying, eerie water swallow her whole.

The world is too complicated for her at such a young age.

I'm leaving tomorrow morning.

After a moment of silence, Dugu Bo suddenly spoke.

"Tell me what it is right away, and I'll take care of everything for you before I leave."

Jiang Xia thought for a moment and said, "There's no need to rush. I'll help stabilize your son's condition tonight."

"Tomorrow, please prepare some food, water, and some tools for refining elixirs for me. Finally, please collect a batch of medicinal herbs here and store them for me."

"The atmosphere here is strange. If you leave, it will definitely be inconvenient for me to come down on my own."

Although consuming the Eight-Starred Frost Grass and the Fiery Apricot Blossom would grant immunity to the corrosive energy of this place, Jiang Xia did not intend to consume them.

First, he did not understand the medicinal properties of these two rare herbs.

Secondly, the process of taking it is too dangerous.

He is only level 15 now and does not have an external soul bone, so his physical strength is far inferior to that of Tang San in the original work.

He won't do anything he's not sure about.

Even if we want to eat it in the future, we should wait until our strength reaches a certain level.

Now, he has a better option.

Time flies, and three days have passed in the blink of an eye.

Dugu Bo collected most of the medicinal herbs he had grown, leaving none of the unfamiliar exotic flowers and herbs untouched. He then packed all the collected herbs into his treasure pouch and handed it over to Jiang Xia.

The Hundred Treasures Pouch is an extremely precious storage soul guide that can hold living things. Storing medicinal herbs inside can greatly preserve their activity.

In addition, Dugu Bo also prepared an ordinary storage soul tool for Jiang Xia, which contained food and water for him and Dugu Yan for three months, as well as a set of alchemy tools.

After everything was arranged, Dugu Bo left.

At this point, only Jiang Xia, Dugu Yan, and Dugu Xin, whose condition had stabilized but remained unconscious, were left near the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well.

"Jiang Xia, Grandpa is gone. What are we supposed to do?"

In the past two days, Dugu Yan has witnessed the wonders of Jiangxia.

Dugu Xin was clearly on the verge of death, and even Dugu Bo felt helpless. However, after just three doses of medicine from Jiang Xia, he was completely stabilized.

This incredible skill left Dugu Yan completely amazed, and she became a huge fan of Jiang Xia.

So as soon as Dugu Bo left, she subconsciously asked Jiang Xia for his opinion.

Jiang Xia thought for a moment, then looked at Dugu Yan and asked, "What level are you at now?"

Dugu Yan paused for a moment, then smiled confidently and said, "Level 19."

"It won't be long before I reach level 20 and absorb my second spirit ring, at which point I'll be a two-ring Great Spirit Master."

"How about it? Envious? Want your older sister to guide you in your cultivation?"

Dugu Yan has good aptitude; her innate seventh-level soul power already surpasses that of 95% of the soul masters on the continent.

Believing she could surpass Jiang Xia in soul power cultivation, she flaunted her abilities without hesitation.

However, Jiang Xia simply nodded indifferently: "It's alright."

After saying this, Jiang Xia ignored Dugu Yan and turned to walk towards the mountainside.

There is a separate residence built by Dugu Bo, complete with all the necessary living facilities.

Instead of the expected praise, Dugu Yan was taken aback and quickly called out to Jiang Xia, "Hey, what do you mean by 'not bad'?"

"I'm only 10 years old, and I've already reached level 19. My grandfather says I have outstanding talent and a promising future as a title holder. How come you say I'm just 'okay'?"

"I'm only level 19 and I'm just 'okay,' what about you? What level are you?"

"15".

Jiang Xia's voice drifted over, and Dugu Yan froze on the spot, her lips trembling as she couldn't utter a single word.

"6 years old."

Jiang Xia then delivered another blow, instantly petrifying Dugu Yan, leaving her fragments scattered on the ground.

She's so stupid, really.

Knowing full well Jiang Xia's abilities, and knowing that her grandfather treated Jiang Xia with utmost courtesy, why did she still insist on digging deeper and causing trouble?

Now look what happened, you've been hurt, haven't you?

"Alright, hurry up and catch up, I can help you break through level 20 faster."

"Hey, hey, coming right now, coming right now."

Dugu Yan quickly caught up, put her arms around Jiang Xia's neck, and half of her body was on top of him.

"Jiang Xia, how are you so amazing? You can do everything, and your cultivation is so fast."

"Read more books."

"Jiang Xia, how can you help me break through to level 20 faster?"

"I know how to make pills, so I can just eat a few more when the time comes."

"Jiang Xia, do you need my help when you're refining pills? Although I don't know anything about pill refining, I'm willing to learn. I'm very diligent."

Jiang Xia rubbed his forehead, feeling a headache coming on: "Yes, I need you to have some peace and quiet for a few days."
