Douluo Continent: I am the true master

Chapter 42 Azure Phosphorus Serpent

The stronger you are, the warmer you can feel in this world. Ye Wen now deeply understands this saying. Although the strength of the Soul Sect is only so-so outside the territory of Notting City, they can indeed act arrogantly in this area.

The faction bearing the name "Tianxing" can now be considered a true power in Notting City.

Seemingly influenced by Ye Wen's breakthrough to Soul Emperor, Ah Yin has been cultivating more and more diligently lately. She is only two levels away from breaking through to the mature stage of level 60, and she no longer needs to fear the covetous eyes of Title Douluo.

Having relieved himself of the pressure, Ye Wen began to enjoy his life in the Douluo world, a rare occurrence for him.

Although it was a feudal era, Ye Wen, as a member of the quasi-aristocratic class, lived a very comfortable life.

Aside from researching soul tools and making small inventions in his spare time, Ye Wen is now showing signs of giving up.

One day, just as Ye Wen was about to go to a brothel to listen to music and enjoy the decadence, he suddenly saw an eleven or twelve-year-old boy with light green hair lying on the ground, looking very uncomfortable.

Ye Wen didn't have any of the so-called occupational hazards of being a doctor, but seeing a little boy collapse like this and not helping him was something his conscience wouldn't allow.

"Little one, what's wrong?"

As he asked this softly, Ye Wen straightened the boy's body.

Looking at the boy's face, Ye Wen's expression became more serious. His face was pale, his appearance was withered, and he even had two faint dark circles under his eyes. No matter how you looked at it, he looked like he had kidney deficiency.

Ye Wen's keen sense of smell also detected a slight fishy smell on the boy's body. This kind of fishy smell is often found on snakes and insects, and Ye Wen would never mistake it.

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration struck Ye Wen, as if he had remembered something.

At that moment, a tall shadow appeared behind Ye Wen.

"Could you please give me this child? I am his father."

Hearing the weathered tone of the man, Ye Wen glanced behind him and saw a middle-aged man with green hair and eyes standing behind him. The man was tall and slender and appeared somewhat effeminate.

"Okay, please take over."

The man silently took the boy and seemed to be using his soul power to help the boy suppress something.

The boy's pain subsided considerably in an instant, and he looked at himself calmly before slowly opening his eyes.

The boy and the man thanked Ye Wen and were about to leave when Ye Wen, seeing their backs, suddenly had an idea and said something.

"Mr. Dugu, if you want to resolve the issues between you and your son, you can come to Tianxing Academy to find me."

The man paused, turned around in surprise, but Ye Wen had already vanished.

He was none other than Dugu Bo, the titled Douluo who later became famous throughout the continent for his massacre of cities and his poisonous abilities.

The father and son were together because the son, Dugu Xin, had graduated from the junior academy of soul masters. However, due to the effects of the poison, he was somewhat depressed, so Dugu Bo decided to take him on a trip to broaden his horizons and relax.

"Tianxing Academy? It can solve our problems? That kid from earlier seems to be quite something," Dugu Bo muttered to himself.

At this moment, Dugu Xin asked, "Father, shall we go?"

Dugu Bo pondered for a moment, then nodded and said.

"Let's go see. Since they say they have a way, they shouldn't be so bored as to lie to us. Otherwise, I'll make them pay for deceiving my son and me."

As he spoke, a hint of murderous intent flashed in Dugu Bo's narrow phoenix eyes.

After all, although he is only 50 years old, he is already a level 75 Soul Saint, and no one of his level dares to provoke him, because once someone is poisoned by the unique Jade Scale Serpent venom of the Dugu family, they will either die or be seriously injured.

Moreover, his martial soul underwent a sublimation when he broke through to the Soul Saint realm. He was now the superior species of the Azure Scale Serpent – ​​the Azure Scale Serpent Emperor.

Its toxicity was even greater, which is why his pupils and hair turned green.

(P.S.: This is based on the original novel and the comic side stories, and it is definitely not made up.)

In 2645, Dugu Bo, at the age of 78, met Tang San. [Original novel]

In 2630, at the age of 63, he broke through the title barrier. [Extra Chapter] Dugu Xin died from poisoning, and Dugu Yan was about five or six years old.

Soul Emperor, 37 years old, level 65, 2605

2618, 50 years old, level 75, current time point

As for Dugu Bo's son, Dugu Xin, he was a real person, but his exact age was not specified, so this is a hypothetical scenario where he is around twelve or thirteen years old, just graduated.

The name "Tianxing" was well-known in Notting City, and Dugu Bo and his son made a few inquiries before heading to Holy Soul Village.

Looking at the clean and tidy campus and the misty, fairy-tale-like scenery of the mountain behind, Dugu Bo nodded appreciatively. Although the Dugu family was not well-known in the Heavenly Dou Empire at present, their ancestors had at least been daring.

"Not bad, what a beautiful view. It seems to be a simulated cultivation environment. I didn't expect that such a remote place would actually hide such a good place."

At this moment, Ye Wen also came over and invited the father and son into the academy. In this place where blue silver grass was everywhere, no movement could escape Ah Yin's surveillance.

Two cups of fragrant tea were poured for them in the principal's office.

"It seems Mr. Dugu has some confidence in me," Ye Wen said with a smile.

The shrewd and experienced Dugu Bo did not immediately agree, but instead asked a question.

"You said you have a way to solve the problems between my son and me. What is that method? If it works, my son and I will certainly repay you with a generous gift."

Ye Wen smiled and shook his head, saying, "What I want from you two isn't a generous gift as a token of my gratitude, but rather something I'd like to discuss with you."

Dugu Bo frowned. If the problem could be solved directly with money, that would be the best. Even if it meant selling everything he owned, Dugu Bo would find a way to raise the money.

But the young man in front of me is clearly not that kind of superficial person.

"Go ahead and say it. As long as it's not too outrageous, I'll agree."

Ye Wen smiled broadly, surprised that things had gone so smoothly.

In the original novel, Dugu Bo has a very important role. Some people say that he is an old poisoner and an old scoundrel, but those who truly understand "Douluo Continent" will know that Dugu Bo is just an honest person. Otherwise, he would not have been sold out by Tang San and still helped him count the money, and even his base camp, the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, would have been taken over by Tang San.

"Sure, what I ask for isn't anything too demanding. I just want your son to become my disciple and for the old gentleman to become the honorary dean of our academy."

Dugu Bo raised an eyebrow, not expecting Ye Wen to have these two requirements. The honorary dean title was just a nominal one, which he could disregard.

As for having his son become Ye Wen's apprentice, if Ye Wen truly has a way to solve the problem of inheriting the family's martial spirit, then so be it; after all, a master is a teacher. If Ye Wen has genuine talent and skills, then the father and son would actually benefit.
