Douluo Continent: After seizing the opportunity, I achieved dual godhood.

Chapter 121 The Wish-Fulfilling Treasure Pouch

At that time, at the eye of ice and fire in the Sunset Forest.

"Old monster, what's wrong with you? Didn't you say you were almost fully recovered? Why were you still in pain last night?"

Wen Ning held the food that Dugu Bo had brought her in her hands, munching and complaining at the same time.

Watching the girl in front of him happily eating a chicken leg with one hand, Dugu Bo simply said in a calm tone, "Perhaps there's something wrong with your martial spirit."

Upon hearing this, Wen Ning was indignant and snorted coldly, "How could that be? No one could possibly have a problem with my martial soul."

After gnawing off the last piece of meat from the chicken leg, Wen Ning methodically burned the chicken bones to ashes, leaned against a rock to rest, and said, "Never mind, I was planning to go back tomorrow, but since that's the case, I'll stay for two more days."

More than ten days have passed in the blink of an eye, and Wen Ning's eleventh birthday is just around the corner. She originally wanted to go back and give her teammates some surprises.

But now it seems that this surprise won't be possible.

If she can't go back tomorrow, she'll have to spend her eleventh birthday with the old monster.

But it's okay, it's just my eleventh birthday anyway.

She has many more birthdays to come.

Although he didn't see any disappointment on Wen Ning's face, Dugu Bo still asked, "Why are you going back tomorrow?"

Dugu Bo and Wen Ning have a good relationship now. When Dugu Bo asked, Wen Ning didn't hide anything and told him directly, "Tomorrow is my birthday."

Dugu Bo was taken aback, and after a long pause, he said, "Your twelfth birthday?"

Wen Ning was about to nod subconsciously, but quickly realized what Dugu Bo had said and hurriedly shook her head, "No, eleven years old."

She said this without thinking there was anything wrong with it.

Until she belatedly remembered something.

If she remembered correctly, she had told Dugu Bo that she was already twelve years old.

How can it not be considered a slip-up?

Fortunately, Dugu Bo didn't care at all. Whether Wen Ning was eleven or twelve years old, there was no denying that he was a genius.

If Wen Ning were only eleven years old, her future would be even more limitless.

He had never seen a Soul Master cultivate so quickly.

"Then you should go back tomorrow."

Dugu Bo looked away, and from who knows where, he produced another chicken leg, which he placed above Yangquan to continue roasting.

Upon hearing this, Wen Ning was taken aback, but she quickly refused, saying, "How can that be? Birthdays don't matter; what's important is to cleanse you of the toxins."

She looked up at the sky and added in her mind, after all, she had taken so many celestial herbs from Dugu Bo.

Things should be done well for people.

Wen Ning should still have this much professional ethics.

In fact, what Dugu Bo said was false; his poison had not acted up since the day before yesterday.

The reason he said that was because he was a little reluctant to part with the person in front of him.

Over the course of their time together, Dugu Bo had come to regard the person in front of him as his second granddaughter.

He naturally didn't tell Wen Ning about this, because he knew that Wen Ning would definitely find it objectionable.

She might say things like, "Who wants to be your granddaughter?"

But since she's going back to celebrate her friend's birthday tomorrow, he'll send her back to the Spirit Hall.

"It's alright, I'll cleanse the poison today and again tomorrow, and I should be fine."

As Dugu Bo said this, he handed Wen Ning another chicken leg.

The sizzling, oily chicken leg was handed to Wen Ning, who took it without hesitation and used her soul power to conjure a gust of wind to cool it down.

"Really? Don't lie, it'll be agonizing when it hurts."

Wen Ning could sense it when he sent his soul power into Dugu Bo's body.

Two days ago, she felt that the poison in Dugu Bo's body had been almost cleared, but Dugu Bo said that he was still in pain, so Wen Ning had no choice but to continue to stay here.

After all, one knows one's own body best, and Wen Ning did not suspect that Dugu Bo was saying this on purpose.

"Don't worry, I won't joke around with my health."

That's true.

Dugu Bo would never joke about his own body.

"In that case, I'll stick to the original plan and return to the Spirit Hall tomorrow."

As she spoke, she took a bite of the chicken leg, which had cooled down considerably.

Dugu Bo had no objection and nodded, "I'll take you back."

What?

Should we take her back?

"Old monster, really, when did you become so kind? You even personally escorted me home?"

Wen Ning looked at Dugu Bo not far away with a curious expression.

But Dugu Bo didn't reply. Instead, he asked, "Have you decided which herbs you want to pick?"

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

He had not forgotten what Wen Ning had said.

This was a deal they had agreed upon long ago.

Dugu Bo will naturally keep his word.

There's no need to ask; it was already decided when Wen Ning first entered the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well.

So her reply was quick: "I've chosen them, I'll go pick them in a bit."

After quickly finishing the last chicken leg, Wen Ning clapped her hands. "Let's cleanse your body of toxins first."

As she spoke, she summoned her second martial soul, but before she could make a move, Dugu Bo interrupted, "No rush, go get what you want first."

Is it in such a hurry?

Then she wouldn't stand on ceremony.

Wen Ning immediately got up and headed toward the few herbs she had been eyeing.

Before she could leave, Dugu Bo spoke up again, "Wait."

Wen Ning paused in her tracks. "What's wrong?"

Could it be that she's regretting it?

Do you have a way to store living herbs? These herbs lose much of their medicinal properties once they lose their vitality.

Wen Ning wanted to say that of course she did, it didn't matter if she didn't, but Yan Yi did!

But she kept an extra thought in mind.

Since Dugu Bo asked this question, could it be that he has something to give her?

So Wen Ning went against his conscience and said, "...No."

Upon hearing this, Dugu Bo's face showed an expression of "I knew it." He slowly stood up, took out a blue leather pouch from somewhere, and tossed it to Wen Ning.

This leather bag is only the size of two adult palms and is the kind that hangs from the waist.

Although it's a bit larger than a sachet, it can only fit one hand inside.

Taking the leather pouch from Dugu Bo, Wen Ning blinked. "Is this for me?"

She wanted to know what this leather bag was.

However, she already has a soul guide ring.

"My granddaughter doesn't like these medicines, so giving them to her would be a waste. This thing is called the Ruyi Baibao Nang (a magical pouch), which can hold living creatures."

Wen Ning's eyes gleamed, and she reacted almost immediately.

"Yan Yi, isn't this a gift for Tang San? Did I trigger a hidden storyline?"

After all, she never had any designs on this treasure; it was given to her by Dugu Bo on his own initiative.

"Yes, because he was destined to be here, but you stole it from him."
